Ye Fan was shocked. He actually saw Ji Ziyue. Although she was smiling sweetly, her face was pale and there were traces of blood on her red lips. She stood by the pond, trembling slightly.
"Why are you here?"
She was the same as before. Although she was seriously injured, she could still smile. The corners of her mouth were curved and dimples could be seen.
"Were you also chased by the Peacock King?" Ye Fan walked forward quickly.
"I've really met you …." She was smiling faintly, but a trickle of blood suddenly flowed out of her mouth. Her face was even paler than before, and her originally spirited eyes were now lifeless. She swayed a bit, and then suddenly fell into the pond.
The severity of Ji Ziyue's injuries alarmed Ye Fan. Her pulse was extremely weak and her heartbeat was about to stop. Her internal organs were all cracked. She was really lucky to be able to survive.
Ye Fan circulated his divine power and dried her wet clothes. Then, he disappeared from the village in a few steps and arrived at a cliff. He took out the pristine jade bottle and poured some divine spring water into her mouth. Immediately, it turned into a wave of life essence and rushed into her body.
The divine spring water obtained from the nine sacred mountains had incredible spiritual effects. It could almost regrow flesh and bones from the dead. It was extremely extraordinary. He could sense that Ji Ziyue's injuries had instantly stabilized.
At this moment, her eyes were closed and her body was trembling. She was murmuring softly in her sleep. Ye Fan listened carefully but could not distinguish it.
"Don't kill my brother …" She screamed in her coma.
An hour later, Ji Ziyue's long eyelashes trembled slightly and she slowly opened her eyes. She wanted to sit up but she did not succeed.
"Your injuries are very serious. Although they have stabilized, you shouldn't act rashly." Ye Fan helped her up and let her sit on the cliff with her back against the soft vines.
"How terrifying …" Ji Ziyue seemed to have a lingering fear.
"Are you talking about the Peacock King?" Ye Fan naturally thought of that demonic mighty figure.
"It's him." Ji Ziyue nodded and said, "Little brat, why did you run away without saying a word? I chased you for three thousand miles and returned empty-handed."
"If you don't leave now, your brother will dismember me and study me carefully."
Ji Ziyue chuckled, "It's not as bad as you say. Don't worry, as long as I'm here, it's safe for you to go to our Ji Clan. No one will make things difficult for you."
Ye Fan's heart stirred when he heard that. He felt that Ji Ziyue was extraordinary and the Ji Family valued her greatly.
"The Peacock King is truly too powerful …" Ji Ziyue revealed a worried expression and said, "I wonder if my Brother Haoyue can escape this calamity."
"The Peacock King also attacked you? How did you escape? It felt very difficult. "
The Peacock King's strength was unimaginable. The legendary figures protecting the Ji siblings were simply unable to resist. In front of the Peacock King, they were like scarecrows, unable to withstand a single blow.
"He's really too terrifying, his magic power is monstrous …" Even now, Ji Ziyue still felt fear in her heart. They wanted to open the realm gate and cross the void, but the Peacock King pointed out with a finger, shattering the void and shaking everyone out.
Some people died on the spot. If Ji Ziyue did not have a secret treasure, she would not have survived.
At the crucial moment, the experts sent by the Ji Family found them. Otherwise, none of them would have survived.
Even so, no one could stop the Peacock King. He was invincible and no one could stop him. With a loud roar, many people were crushed on the spot, turning into a bloody mist. It could be said that his divine might shook the world.
"This … is too unbelievable!" Ye Fan was deeply shocked. This kind of powerful person was truly terrifying. His strength was unfathomable.
"An existence comparable to an ancient almighty. It's hard to say how powerful his magic power is …"
That group of experts only delayed for a moment before they were beaten into pieces. However, they bought time for Ji Ziyue and Ji Haoyue to escape.
Hearing this, Ye Fan was even more certain that Ji Ziyue's status was not ordinary. Even at that moment, the Ji Family experts risked their lives to create a chance for her to escape, not willing to give up.
"The Peacock King became one with heaven and earth. His roar shook the mountains and rivers. His voice was like a raging wave hitting the shore. A mountain peak was shattered by his voice!"
Ye Fan felt his heart palpitate. This kind of power was beyond imagination.
"My brother's divine body was born with a strange power but he was completely suppressed. In front of him, he was even inferior to a mortal."
An existence comparable to an ancient almighty being. Its supreme might was inconceivable.
Ye Fan had personally seen how strong Ji Haoyue was. Killing a great demon was like plucking grass and flowers. He was invincible. However, such strength was insignificant in front of the Peacock King.
"One with heaven and man, controlling everything. He can almost pluck the stars and moon …" Even now, Ji Ziyue was still a little nervous. She clenched her fists tightly.
"How did you escape?" Ye Fan asked.
"My brother and I ran separately. He went to chase after my brother …" Ji Ziyue was worried. There was no way she could fight against a mighty figure like that. Even though Ji Haoyue had a divine body and cultivated three mystic realms, there was no suspense if they really fought.
"There's no bad news yet. I believe your brother won't die so easily." At this point, Ye Fan revealed a suspicious expression. "Why didn't you return to the Ji family? Why did you come here instead?"
"The Peacock King ignored me but someone else chased me …" Along the way, Ji Ziyue was constantly chased and she was heavily injured.
In a hurry, she crossed the void through the Domain Gate of a small sect and arrived here. She didn't know how to inscribe Dao patterns and couldn't determine her destination.
"What a coincidence …" Ye Fan muttered to himself.
"It's not a coincidence." Ji Ziyue rolled her eyes at him. "I left an imprint on you. After appearing in this region, I slowly found my way here."
"What? You actually did something to me?"
"I have no ill intentions. Why are you nervous? When I saw your abnormal behavior that day, I knew that you were going to leave. Therefore, I made preparations and left an imprint. In the end, you ran too fast and I couldn't catch up. The distance was too far and I couldn't sense you. "
Ye Fan carefully looked inside but didn't find anything strange. He said, "What did you do?"
"Take your time to find …" Ji Ziyue chuckled but soon revealed a worried expression. "Brother Haoyue, I'm afraid it'll be difficult for you to escape this calamity."
Suddenly, Ye Fan's eyes widened. Not far away, a door appeared in the sky, and several cultivators charged out.
"Ah, it's the people chasing me!" Ji Ziyue cried out softly. "They opened the Domain Gate and crossed the void to follow me."
"Chi!"
A terrifying bolt of lightning struck down. Those people were very decisive. When they found their target, they immediately used their divine abilities and attacked downwards.
Ye Fan helped Ji Ziyue up and dodged to the side. The silver lightning pierced through the cliff, causing rocks to shoot in all directions.
"Boom!"
In the sky, an ancient pagoda rapidly enlarged and pressed down.
Ye Fan's expression changed on the spot. Those who used pagodas, bells, and cauldrons were usually not ordinary people. Most of them were extremely powerful.
In the sky, the pagoda only had five floors, but it was as heavy as a mountain, suffocating people and emitting a heart-palpitating aura.
Ye Fan pulled Ji Ziyue up and quickly left the cliff, rushing into the distance. These people were too powerful. If they fought them head-on, they would definitely suffer.
The footwork that Crazy 'Ole taught Ye Fan was a supreme secret art. It had incredible power and was extremely fast. In a short time, they were already five kilometers away.
He didn't stop and continued to flee. Only when he was fifty kilometers away did he let out a long breath. "Those people are not ordinary …"
"They are all very powerful. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fled." Ji Ziyue's little canine teeth shone brightly as she grinded them gently.
"They don't look like demons." Ye Fan revealed a doubtful expression.
Ji Ziyue bit her red lips and said, "Someone wants to use this opportunity to get rid of me and brother Haoyue."
"Could it be that Ji Biyue again?"
"No, it's much more troublesome than her. There must be someone who doesn't want our family to have a divine body. Even if brother Haoyue can escape from the Peacock King's hands, it's still very dangerous. I'm afraid there will be human experts secretly taking action and taking this opportunity to kill him. "
Although Ji Ziyue wasn't old, she had a lot of foresight. She had predicted that something bad might happen.
"They should be watching Ji Haoyue. Why do they want to harm you? Do you also have a divine body?"
"How can I have a divine body …" Ji Ziyue didn't say much. She thought for a moment and then glanced at Ye Fan. She teased, "Little brat, you really have a lot of secrets. What is that green copper? Why can your body block divine body attacks? How did you learn Crazy Old Man's footwork? Why are you in such a hurry to escape Taixuan?"
This little girl was very quick-witted and weird. She obviously wanted to change the topic and explore Ye Fan's secrets.
Suddenly, a golden light streaked across the sky, tearing out dozens of powerful lightning bolts like dancing golden snakes.
"It's a lightning bird." Ji Ziyue frowned and suddenly shouted, "Not good, it's a Phoenix Crown Lightning Bird, a very powerful mutated bird. Let's avoid it and not enter its territory."
The lightning bird in the distance was completely golden as if it was cast from gold. Lightning blazed and its head bulged slightly like a phoenix crown. It looked very extraordinary.
This was a powerful mutated bird that ordinary lightning birds couldn't compare to. It had extremely terrifying attack power and most cultivators would retreat when they saw it.
"Luckily, they didn't discover us." Ji Ziyue secretly rejoiced.
"There's most likely a Phoenix Crown Lightning Bird's nest up ahead. Maybe we can use it to block the people chasing you."
"Yes, that makes sense." Ji Ziyue's big eyes immediately curved into crescents.
The two of them continued forward and indeed found a bird's nest in the depths of the mountain range. It was built on a towering ancient tree. The four golden eggs were the size of a human head and were surrounded by golden lightning bolts.
"This kind of mutated bird is very rare. It can constantly evolve and is the rarest. I really want to take one of the eggs and hatch it to raise as a pet, "Ji Ziyue said with some regret.
She didn't dare to do that. She and Ye Fan left enough traces in the mountains before rushing into the sky.
Not long after, the few powerful cultivators found the depths of the mountain range and found many 'clues'. They searched the area carefully and felt that Ji Ziyue was hiding nearby.
After a long time, the few of them found a towering ancient tree.
"Bird's nest … Oh no!" One of them exclaimed, "This seems to be the nest of a Phoenix Crown Lightning Bird. This kind of mutated bird must not be provoked. If it misunderstands that we want to take its eggs, it will definitely fight to the death."
There were four eggs in the huge bird's nest. The eggshells seemed to be made of gold, dazzling and dazzling.
"Let's go. This kind of powerful mutated bird is the most vengeful. If we are trapped here, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
However, they wandered around here for a long time. The Phoenix Crown Lightning Bird that went out had already returned. It let out a soul-stirring cry, leaving a long golden afterimage in the sky as it swooped down.
Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue looked into the distance and saw lightning soaring into the sky in the depths of the mountain range. They didn't stop and quickly left.
The next day, Ye Fan saw a sixteen or seventeen year old youth in a beautiful mountain range. His figure was a bit thin, and he seemed a bit weak. His appearance was delicate and pretty, and his eyes were clear like a lake. His black hair was very soft, and each strand was light and agile.
This youth was like a clear spring in the depths of the mountain, giving people a refreshing feeling. It was very natural.
To see such a youth in this desolate mountain range, Ye Fan was naturally a little surprised. He asked with a smile, "Little brother, can you tell me where this place is?"
The youth stood quietly in front, his soft black hair fluttering gently. His eyes were incomparably clear as he replied, "Qixia Mountain Range, within the borders of Jin."
"Little brother, your appearance is elegant and natural. I believe you must be a cultivator?" Ye Fan asked with a smile.
"Yes." The youth nodded.
Behind him, Ji Ziyue's face was snow-white and her voice was trembling as she said, "Little brat … come back!"
Ye Fan turned around and saw that her face was filled with terror. Her large eyes were filled with fear. He immediately felt that something was wrong and retreated lightly.
"What's wrong? Who is he?"
"He is … the Peacock King!" Ji Ziyue's voice was trembling. Her usual cheerfulness was swept away and only fear was left.
"What?!" Ye Fan was shocked. This youth in front of him was the Peacock King? This was too abrupt and shocking.
"Peacock King, you are a mighty figure. You stand at the peak and look down on the world. Don't kill the innocent. Let him go, it has nothing to do with him." Ji Ziyue stepped forward and requested to let Ye Fan go.
The Peacock King of the demon race was a mighty figure in the Southern Region. He was invincible 800 years ago and even the Alkaid Holy Lord could not do anything to him. Few people knew how long he had lived.
According to the outside world's guesses, he was more than two thousand years old after transforming into a human. If compared to the other side of the starry sky, he would be a person from the Qin and Han Dynasties.
However, this youth in front of him looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old. His eyes were as clear as water and there was no sense of vicissitudes. It was really hard to associate him with the Peacock King.
Ji Ziyue had once described his supreme might. He was one with heaven and earth and his roar shook the mountains and rivers. His voice was like the crashing waves, shattering a mountain peak.
In Ye Fan's mind, the Peacock King must be as imposing as a mountain and his aura was incomparably domineering. However, he never imagined that he would be so handsome, like a clear spring deep in the mountains, like a snow lotus on an icy peak, like a cool breeze on a pure land.
Thinking of how he addressed the Peacock King as brother and even wanted to pat his shoulder, Ye Fan felt his scalp go numb. This was an existence with monstrous magic power, comparable to an ancient mighty figure.
