Crouching Dragon Mountain, Moon Tower. Gu Dongliu came to Ye Futian's side and said, "Little Brother, I'll go to Taihang Mountain on your behalf."
This matter had started because of him. Now that Zhan Xiao had gone to Taihang Mountain, it was only natural that he should be the one to end it.
Since Zhisheng Cliffs and Zhan Xiao were not willing to let him go, there had to be an end to it.
He had been prepared to put an end to this matter in the last battle, but the ending was not what he had expected.
"I'm worried about Jieyu and the others. I'm going there myself," Ye Futian said. Now that Jieyu, Yu Sheng, Lou Lan, and Qingxuan were all on Taihang Mountain, he would not be able to forgive himself if anything happened.
"Futian." A figure walked over. It was Zhuge Qingfeng.
Ye Futian looked at him and heard Zhuge Qingfeng say, "There's news from the Holy Zhi Palace that it was Bai Ze who instigated Zhan Xiao to go to Taihang Mountain. Now, Bai Ze has been killed in the Holy Zhi Palace. It's very likely that Ye Wuchen, Zui Qianchou, and Xu Que killed him. All three of them have fled the Holy Zhi Palace."
"Bai Ze." Ye Futian's expression was cold, but when he thought of Wuchen and the others, his eyes were filled with intense worry. Trouble had yet to settle, and now Wuchen had been dragged into this mess because of him. He had originally wanted to let Wuchen cultivate in peace in the Holy Zhi Palace to improve his powers.
But now, none of them were able to escape.
"Take Yuan Hong with you," Zhuge Qingfeng said.
"No." Ye Futian refused flatly. "I was the one who got Uncle involved in this. For me and Third Brother, Uncle has already put his life on the line. Now, he is even endangering the entire family. If I let Yuan Hong go to Taihang Mountain with me, Crouching Dragon Mountain will definitely be destroyed. Moreover, Zhisheng Cliffs will not let me go if Crouching Dragon Mountain is destroyed.
Zhuge Qingfeng looked at Ye Futian. This was an emergency, and he could not wait any longer.
"Uncle, you and Grandpa Yuan should kill your way out now. There's no need to wait for them to attack Crouching Dragon Mountain. Let's start the battle directly. Only then can I leave. Otherwise, Crouching Dragon Mountain's every move will be watched," Ye Futian said.
Zhuge Qingfeng's eyes flashed. Does he want to start the battle early?
"I'll take you there." At that moment, a voice was heard. Zhuge Qingfeng, Ye Futian, and the others were stunned as they looked at a figure walking towards them.
The House Lord of Tingxue House, ranked ninth on the Barren Sky Ranking, Xu Shang.
Ye Futian looked up at Xu Shang and said, "In that case, thank you very much, senior."
Of course, he was anxious as well. He hoped that Yuan Hong would take him to Taihang Mountain, but that would not work. It was a path of certain death, and both Crouching Dragon Mountain and Taihang Mountain would be finished.
Since Xu Shang was willing to help, of course, he wouldn't be polite anymore. He just remembered this favor.
"I'm not alone in the Barren State. I can't fight Zhisheng Cliffs head-on," Xu Shang said.
"Senior, you don't have to say anymore. I understand." Zhisheng Cliffs had Saints after all, and Xu Shang had no reason to get involved for no reason. Being on the opposing side of Zhisheng Cliffs was definitely not a good thing for the Tingxue House. Xu Shang naturally had his concerns.
"There's no time to lose. Let's go," Xu Shang said.
"Alright." Ye Futian nodded.
"Yuan Hong, let's go as well," Zhuge Qingfeng looked at Yuan Hong and said.
"Alright." Yuan Hong nodded. He was also a little worried about Taihang Mountain.
"Let's go." Zhuge Qingfeng and Yuan Hong stepped out at the same time, heading down Crouching Dragon Mountain.
Not far from Crouching Dragon Mountain, a large number of mighty ones had gathered in Xuanwu City. They were all figures from various top forces. At that moment, they all felt the terrifying pressure coming from the sky.
Zhuge Qingfeng, Yuan Hong, and many top-notch mighty ones from Taihang Mountain and the Zhuge Family had all appeared there.
This time, the Zhuge Family's Sage had also participated in the battle. They clearly understood the current situation. Once Zhuge Qingfeng was defeated and killed, what awaited the Zhuge Family would be annihilated. Even if they were very displeased, they had no choice but to stand out and fight.
"You all have a death wish." Kong Yao saw them coming, and a terrifying aura surged. He flashed and took to the air. He was already angry from the last battle, and now he had made up his mind to kill.
The Sacred Fire Sect, Sword Saint Villa, Nantian House, and many other mighty ones took to the air at the same time, ready to start the slaughter. They had no way out. Either the Zhuge Family would be annihilated, or their families would be in trouble.
Di Kai was also there, but he was very hesitant. You Chi had already warned him not to participate in this battle, or else he would have to bear the consequences. This was the first time You Chi had been so forceful. He did not know what You Chi would do if he participated.
One figure after another took to the air, and a terrifying aura pressed down on the vast and endless space. Countless people in Xuanwu City looked over, and their hearts trembled. This shocking storm had finally arrived. This time, it was very likely to be the final battle, and blood would be spilled.
…
The storm had already begun to rage in the Barren State, and there seemed to be signs of great chaos.
Countless eyes were fixed on Xuanwu City, and not many were focused on Taihang Mountain.
However, at that moment, somewhere in the Barren State, several figures were rushing towards Taihang Mountain. The person in the lead was extremely dignified, but at that moment, he was surrounded by a murderous aura.
The City Lord of White Cloud City, Bai Gu.
He was the first to know that Bai Ze had died. After all, he was Bai Ze's biological father, and Bai Ze had a spirit jade scroll in the family. When he found out that Bai Ze had died, he could not believe it was true.
His son had been cultivating in the Holy Zhi Palace. How could he have died?
Who killed him?
Although his second son was not as outstanding as his eldest son, Bai Luli, and he did not have high hopes for Bai Ze, he was still the son of the City Lord of White Cloud City. Now, he had been killed.
He went to the Holy Zhi Palace immediately and received news that the person who killed his son might have been Ye Wuchen. He did not know if Xu Que and Zui Qianchou were involved.
Now, they had left the Holy Zhi Palace and were on the run.
After receiving the news, the City Lord did not go after Ye Wuchen and the others, nor did he go to Xuanwu City. His target was Taihang Mountain.
Since his son, Bai Ze, had died because of this matter, then he would have personally buried Taihang Mountain. If Yuan Hong had not interfered back then, things would not have turned out this way. Zhisheng Cliffs would have taken Gu Dongliu down a long time ago, and Bai Ze would not have died.
Taihang Mountain would have to take responsibility for this matter.
Taihang Mountain would have to bear his wrath. Yuan Hong and Ye Futian would have to pay for what they had done.
Bai Ze's death made the City Lord forget about his bearing as the fourth on the Barren Sky Ranking. Now, there was only one thought in his mind, and that was to kill.
Destroy Taihang Mountain, then go to Crouching Dragon Mountain and bury it.
Everyone had to die, to be buried with his son Bai Ze.
…
Time passed, and it was dusk. The blood-red sunset in the sky above Taihang Mountain seemed to be some kind of omen, giving people a sense of loneliness.
At the peak of Taihang Mountain, Hua Jieyu would stand at the edge of the cliff and look into the distance every day. She did not go to Crouching Dragon Mountain. She knew that Ye Futian was worried that she would get involved, and so did not let her participate. However, if something were to happen to Crouching Dragon Mountain, she would not be able to live alone.
Even so, she did not go to Crouching Dragon Mountain. Instead, she stayed at Taihang Mountain as Ye Futian wanted. Even though she would stand at the edge of the cliff and look into the distance every day, hoping that he would return safely, she still resisted the urge to do so many times. She did not want him to worry about her.
In the distance, under the light of the setting sun, a group of figures could be seen walking on Taihang Mountain. A strange look flashed in Hua Jieyu's eyes, and then she saw many golden apes leaping into the air. In an instant, a great battle broke out in the sky.
It was obvious that the person who returned was not Ye Futian.
The clash in the sky above Taihang Mountain quickly alerted the demonic beasts that were guarding Taihang Mountain. The mountain range shook, and golden figures leaped into the air, pouncing on the battlefield.
Yu Sheng and Yi Qingxuan came to Hua Jieyu's side. Yu Sheng's cold eyes swept into the distance.
There, he saw Zhan Xiao leading a group of mighty ones. While this group of people were not the top figures from Zhisheng Cliffs, there were still two frightening archmages among them. They were originally to protect him and Qin Zhong, and now they were transferred to Taihang Mountain.
There were many demonic beasts guarding Taihang Mountain as well, but the truly top-notch demonic beasts had all gone to the battlefield at Crouching Dragon Mountain.
"A bunch of animals. Kill them all," Zhan Xiao said coldly and stepped forward. Zhan Xiao said coldly as he stepped forward. The two in front of him were like two killing gods. One of them held a sharp sword in his hand, and the power of swordsmanship rules was terrifying to the extreme. It was as if the power of lightning rules had been infused into the sword. At that moment, the sword appeared and slashed at the body of a huge golden ape. The ape's huge body was actually split in half, and a miserable howl was heard in the air.
The other person was just as frightening, and he continued to kill his way forward. Many golden apes were killed on the spot, and blood stained Taihang Mountain.
The setting sun was like blood, and there was a sense of desolation in the air.
In that direction, there were no demonic apes that could stop Zhan Xiao and the others.
The group continued to kill their way to the main mountain of Taihang Mountain. Zhan Xiao faintly saw Hua Jieyu and Yu Sheng, and a sinister smile flashed in his eyes.
Ye Futian had sabotaged his plans many times, and he would make Ye Futian pay a terrible price, making him suffer so much that he would rather die.
"You guys retreat first." At that moment, several golden apes appeared beside Hua Jieyu and Yu Sheng. Two extremely huge golden apes stepped out and intercepted Zhan Xiao's group, leaving behind several golden apes to protect Yu Sheng and the others as they retreated.
"Sister-in-law, let's go," Yu Sheng said to Hua Jieyu. Hua Jieyu watched as the demonic apes fell one after another, and her heart ached. However, she still turned around with determination and left under the protection of the demonic apes.
"Trying to run?" Zhan Xiao's expression was cold. "Stop them."
As he said that, he sped up and continued to rush forward until the two incredibly huge golden apes arrived, lashing out with extremely overbearing attacks. Shadows of staffs filled the air.
A straight beam of the sword swept through the air, cutting through the shadows of the staffs. A terrifying sound of collision was heard, and the mighty one from Zhisheng Cliffs felt that he had met his match.
"We'll hold them back. Son, you lead the others and continue to pursue them," the mighty one from Zhisheng Cliffs said. Zhan Xiao nodded and said, "Thank you."
As he said that, he ignored the battlefield and continued to move forward. The two golden apes wanted to stop him, but they were stopped by the others.
"You won't be able to escape," Zhan Xiao said coldly as he looked at the fleeing figures.
Soon, they caught up with Hua Jieyu and the others. The golden apes were not good at speed.
"Do it," Zhan Xiao ordered. The mighty ones around him acted immediately. The golden apes who were protecting Hua Jieyu and the others retreated fought with them, but Zhan Xiao continued to lead the two of them forward, looking at Yu Sheng, Hua Jieyu, and the others with a mocking look.
At that moment, not far from Taihang Mountain, there were terrifying beams of light streaking through the air from two different directions, heading towards Taihang Mountain at breakneck speed.
"Senior, can you go a little faster?" Ye Futian, who was on Xu Shang's sword, asked.
He was very worried. At that moment, they could vaguely see Taihang Mountain.
Hua Jieyu and Yu Sheng must be alright.
