The light gradually dimmed, and the people quietly appeared in the courtyard of the Dragon Field Courtyard in a ring formation. Snow Girl was in the center of the formation. Her strength had improved rapidly, and with the help of Qi Yue, it was much easier to control the Kunlun Mirrors than before. There would no longer be any strong energy fluctuations, which made people suspicious.
Yan Xiaoyi stretched his body and laughed, "I'm back. Although the environment here isn't that great, the feeling of going home is really good!"
Ruyue glared at him and said, "Are you saying that the environment of the Dragon Field Courtyard is not good?"
Yan Xiaoyi was shocked and quickly smiled apologetically, "No, no, Sister Ruyue, don't misunderstand, I was just saying."
He dared to offend others, but he did not dare to offend Ruyue. Even without Qi Yue, he could not afford to offend Ruyun's powerful strength.
Qi Yue shook his head helplessly and said, "Alright, everyone has worked hard these few days. Everyone has worked hard these past few days. Go back and rest. "Looking up at the sun in the sky, it was already afternoon in the capital of the Yan Huang Republic. There was still quite some time before dinner.
As time passed, the Zodiac Guardian God Warriors had become stronger under the leadership of Qi Yue, gradually approaching the peak state they could reach. The most powerful Zodiac Warrior in history. What would they face in the near future? Perhaps only the Heavens would know.
...
The Vatican. Pope Marti sat on his throne, his wise eyes looked a little dim. He seemed to be thinking about something. Below him, the four red-robed archbishops stood quietly on both sides, while the high-ranking clergymen representing the various churches, as well as the high-ranking members of the Vatican's Court of Inquiry, were gathered in the main church of Vatican, quietly waiting for the Pope's instructions.
A few days ago, Marti had received the news that Qi Yue had returned to the Yanhuang Republic. He regarded Qi Yue as the greatest threat to the Vatican in the Adept World. However, for some unknown reason, Malty wasn't disappointed at all when Qi Yue returned. Instead, he was filled with joy. He could never forget how Qi Yue had stepped forward at the last moment and completely changed the path of the asteroid. He knew that in his life, he would never be able to defeat Qi Yue. He would never be able to reach the level of that Asian man.
The Vatican Cathedral was filled with a holy aura. A huge cross hung on the wall behind Marty. A faint milky white light seeped out from it. The holy aura kept everyone calm.
"Everyone," Marti finally spoke. The clergymen hurriedly bowed and waited for his instructions.
He slowly stood up from his seat. Dressed in the Pope's unique attire, Marti's entire body seemed to be filled with an unconcealable sense of holiness. He tapped the long-handled scepter lightly on the ground. The worry in his eyes could not be concealed.
"Not long ago, I received instructions from God. In the near future, I'm afraid we will face an unavoidable Holy War. As the representative of the Emperor Of Heaven in the human world, this Holy War is the biggest test for the Vatican. Now, we must start preparing. "
Cardinal Paolo Gasol stepped forward and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, what are the instructions of the Emperor Of Heaven?" In the Vatican, he was the Chief Cardinal, and his authority was second only to Marti. If Marti passed away, then he would be the first in line for the position of Pope.
Marti sighed and said, "The Emperor Of Heaven only had one instruction. The demons are about to descend on the human world. We must form the Holy Cross Army to face the demons' invasion. The demons will bring the most powerful evil force to the human world. Even if we have to pay with our lives, we must stop them from advancing. "
Hearing the Pope's words, the expressions of the clergymen turned solemn. To be able to sit in their current positions, they were the most loyal followers of the Emperor Of Heaven. This was the first time they had heard of such an instruction, and it was from Pope Marti's mouth.
Paolo Gasol hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, if we reorganize the Holy Cross Army, I'm afraid we will be opposed by all sectors of society. It will be detrimental to the Vatican's development in the future!"
A long time ago, the Vatican had given up on all military forces and only specialized clergymen. In today's society, no country could allow the Church to pose a threat to the country's institutions, not even the Vatican that had existed for thousands of years. Therefore, the Holy Cross Army of the Vatican no longer existed. Now that the Pope suddenly suggested reorganizing the Holy Cross Army, the clergymen were shocked.
Marti sighed and said, "We can't care too much now. The demons are about to come to the human world. As the most loyal followers of the Emperor Of Heaven, we must use the power of our faith to eliminate all obstacles and prepare for war. As for the problems of the various countries, I will try my best to solve them through political means. However, the Holy Cross Army must be reorganized in the shortest time possible. Paolo, the four of you Cardinals will immediately go with the Inquisition to handle this matter after you leave here. As long as the clergymen have reached the level of a knight, they will gather and undergo unified training. I will bestow the blessing of the Emperor Of Heaven on them. The Divine Protectors will support us in our fight against the demons in the name of the Emperor Of Heaven. "
The Pope's authority was supreme in the Vatican. Even the Cardinals had no right to oppose the Pope's decision. Amidst the turbulent undercurrents, the Vatican had begun to move. For the near future, the Vatican began to mobilize the forces that they had accumulated over the years. As the Pope, Marti issued the Pope's decree. Under the suspicion of many countries, he began to communicate closely with the western countries.
...
For the Zodiac Guardian God Warriors, peace was the rarest thing they had. A whole week had passed. Nothing bothered them. For the first time in a year.
This was the first time Qi Yue had such a leisurely day.
Every day, apart from assisting everyone in their cultivation, he would spend time with his female friends, go home to see his parents, and live a relaxed and carefree life. This was a feeling that Qi Yue had not experienced in a long, long time. For a whole week, he let go of all the burdens in his heart and let his body and mind completely relax. They lived a peaceful and happy life.
"Qi Yue, what can we do to break through the bottleneck?" There were only four people in the main hall of the Dragon Field Courtyard. Qi Yue, Ming Ming, Xu Dong, and Hai Ruyue.
Within a week, Qi Yue helped Ming Ming and Xu Dong, who had also reached the Eight-Cloud level, to reach the pinnacle of the Eight-Cloud level. However, they also encountered the same problem as Ruyue, which was reaching the final bottleneck. This wasn't something that could be broken through with the help of the Source of Nature. At least Qi Yue had helped them test it several times. But there were still no results.
Shaking his head helplessly, Qi Yue lazily reclined on the sofa. "If you want to make the final breakthrough, I'm afraid you can only rely on your own strength. External forces can't help you break through. If it wasn't for the miraculous Source of Nature, you wouldn't have reached the pinnacle of the Eight-Cloud level so quickly. Actually, we should be satisfied. If we can raise everyone's strength to the Eight-Cloud level in a short period of time, it will definitely be a huge leap for us. For us, it will definitely be another leap in our overall strength. "
Ming Ming giggled, "If I knew it was so easy, I wouldn't have trained so hard. In the past, I wouldn't have trained so hard. With your help, wouldn't I be able to reach this level in a short period of time? "
Qi Yue sternly said, "No, Ming Ming, you're wrong. Although the Source of Nature can increase your strength quickly, only the energy obtained from your own training is the most solid. Although your energy has increased now, because you haven't experienced the difficulties of training, your use of energy is still far from enough. What you need to do now is still to train hard and adapt to your current energy situation as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll never be able to break through the bottleneck. If it wasn't for the threat of the Hellburning Legion, I definitely wouldn't spoil things through excessive enthusiasm and let you guys improve in a short period of time. Right now, I just hope there won't be any side effects. "
Ming Ming stuck out her tongue, glanced at Qi Yue, and said, "You only know how to talk about us. You've been quite idle recently! Apart from assisting everyone in training every night, you've been wandering around during the day, making my eyes blur. "
Qi Yue laughed, "You're just jealous. It's rare for me to be able to relax during this period of time, shouldn't I properly relax? Only God knew when Satan would bring the Burning Legion to Earth. When that time comes, we'll be busy again. "
Ruyue said, "Qi Yue, have you thought of a countermeasure? If it's as you said, once the Burning Legion appears, then they will descend on the Western world. When that time comes, what should we do? "
Qi Yue said, "I already have a plan. Overall, from the perspective of the plane, the one fighting against Satan's Burning Legion should be the so-called Celestial Emperor's World, which was also the plane that the Vatican believed in. Therefore, once the Burning Legion appeared, the Vatican in the West would definitely become the main force to snipe them. Although I don't know how strong the Vatican is, it's almost impossible for them to fight against the Burning Legion with their strength alone. After all, the Church only represented the plane of the Celestial Emperor, while the Infernal Realm had turned out in full force. No one in the Church could stop a super powerhouse like Satan. When that time comes, the Vatican will definitely suffer great losses, and it's hard to say how long they can resist. "
Ming Ming interrupted, "As long as Hell appears, do we go to help the Vatican?"
Qi Yue shook his head and said, "No, after the Burning Legion appears, we can't act immediately. Master Zagrú once said that the ordeal that Earth is about to face will come one after another. The first disaster is obviously the appearance of the asteroid, and the second should be Hell. According to the current situation on Earth, people with abilities like us are mainly divided into three groups. The Vatican is fighting against Hell, and the Greek Guardians are very likely to fight against the Underworld army led by Hades, the traitor of the Greek Gods. These two forces are extremely powerful and can pose a huge threat to the Western world. However, we, the Guardians of the East, are also a powerful force in this world, and can even be said to be the strongest. Even the Greek Guardians and the Vatican will face the challenge of the Evil Plane. What about us? Will we also encounter the attack of the Evil Plane? From the perspective of the true legend of Yan Huang, this situation should not happen. After all, before the two great gods of water and fire broke the void and left, they had already imprisoned or destroyed all the gods of the East. However, I always have a feeling of unease. The East should not be peaceful. Otherwise, it would not make sense for me, the Ink Kirin of the Four Auspicious Clouds, to be born in the East. Therefore, after the war with the Vatican, we can't be too hasty. After all, the Vatican has a very deep foundation, and the same is true for the Greek Guardians. They also have the support of the governments of the Western countries. When the Evil Plane threatens the safety of the countries, they will definitely resist with all their strength. Even if Hell and the Underworld come, it will not be easy to completely occupy the East. Therefore, we must wait and see if there will be any special situations or powerful enemies in the East. After confirming that the East is safe, we can rush to the West to assist the Vatican. "
After listening to Qi Yue's analysis, Ruyue and the other two nodded at the same time. Xu Dong asked, "Boss, who do we help when the time comes? Will we help the Greek Guardians or the Vatican? "
Qi Yue glanced at Xu Dong, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "Although I shouldn't involve the feelings of others in the face of a serious situation, the hatred between me and the successor of the Goddess Athena is too deep. It is a hatred that cannot be reconciled. Therefore, when the time comes, if we choose to help someone, it will definitely be the Vatican. As long as the enemies of the Vatican are defeated by us, they will also assist the Greek Guardians. We don't need to worry about anything else. The matter of the asteroid was too urgent and threatened the safety of the entire Earth, so we had to temporarily cooperate with the Greek Guardians. But that was the first time, and it will also be the last time. In the future, the same thing will never happen again. "
Although Qi Yue's eyes were very calm, Xu Dong still felt a trace of coldness. All the Zodiac Guardian Warriors knew that Yummou had deceived Qi Yue's feelings. At the same time, she had also caused the death of Wen Ting and Snow Girl's father. This hatred could never be made up for. Now, it was already very difficult for Qi Yue to suppress his desire for revenge and not settle the score with Yummou and continue the battle from last time.
Ruyue squeezed Qi Yue's hand and sighed softly. "The matter between us and the Greek Guardians will be resolved sooner or later. Qi Yue, you don't need to think too much. As the saying goes, there will always be a way. When the crisis on Earth is resolved, we will definitely avenge Wen Ting. Also, there will be Snow Girl's father and Prince Klinsmann. "
Qi Yue nodded lightly. Just as he was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed. Two seemingly solid eyes shot out from his eyes and looked in the direction of the villa's door.
A graceful figure had appeared outside the villa's door. Even with the strength of Ruyue, Xu Dong, and Ming Ming, they actually did not notice her arrival. When the three of them followed Qi Yue's gaze and saw the figure, they could not help but exclaim in their hearts at the same time. It's her.
Speak of the devil. It was none other than the strongest of the Greek Guardians, the successor of the Goddess of War and Wisdom, Athena, Yummou.
Yummou came alone. At least, Qi Yue did not feel the aura of the Zodiac Guardians. She just stood outside the door and looked at Qi Yue quietly. Her beautiful eyes were very calm, so calm that it was a little hard to imagine.
She wore a long white dress, which outlined her perfect figure. Her long purple hair hung quietly behind her back, and Yummou's face looked a little pale. However, the holy aura on her body seemed to be more abundant than the last time they fought at Mount Everest. Clearly, it was a sign that her strength had improved.
Qi Yue's laziness disappeared, and he slowly stood up. His black trousers and Yummou's white dress formed a sharp contrast. His gaze. Like two cold bolts of lightning, he stared at Yummou and said in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"
Yummou had been looking at Qi Yue. From the moment she appeared, her calm gaze had been fixed on Qi Yue, as though she wanted to see through him. She did not answer Qi Yue's question, and only said lightly, "Why? Aren't you going to invite me in? "
Qi Yue slowly walked towards the door and said coldly, "There's no need. We don't welcome enemies here. The hospitality of the Yan Huang people will not be used on our enemies. "As he spoke, he looked at Yan Huang. As he spoke, he had already walked to the door of the villa, looking down at Yummou at the bottom of the steps. Qi Yue's expression was not as calm as Yummou's. Every time he saw her, the scene of him almost dying from Yummou's frenzied absorption of the Source of Nature's energy would appear before his eyes. Such a destructive deception was something that Qi Yue would never forget for the rest of his life.
Looking at Qi Yue. Yummou's gaze was still calm, and she nodded slightly. "Alright. Since you won't invite me in, then forget it. After all, we've long been enemies. "
Qi Yue said coldly, "You haven't answered my question. What are you doing here? If you want to seek cooperation again, then please keep your mouth shut. Our Zodiac Guardian Warriors will not cooperate with the despicable Greeks. You should know what happened at the asteroid. I did it for the safety of Earth, for the safety of Yan Huang. That was why I had no choice but to cooperate with you temporarily. Now that the cooperation is over, there is only hatred between us. "
Yummou revealed a faint bitter smile. "You don't have to emphasize it too much. Don't tell me I still don't understand? Everything that has happened can never be undone. Ever since I saw your expression at the top of Mount Everest, I deeply understood this truth. Don't worry, I'm not here to seek cooperation today. I know that there is no possibility of cooperation between us. Even if we, the Greek Guardians, are about to face an irresistible enemy and are destined to be destroyed, we will not ask for cooperation with you. We have our own dignity too. "
Hearing her words, Qi Yue's expression softened a little. He said indifferently, "Then you can tell me your purpose. I don't think you would come to the Yanhuang Republic for no reason. Seeing that Earth is about to face many disasters, I can not kill you now and postpone our battle. When the other problems are resolved, our battle will still be unavoidable. "
Yummou suddenly smiled. With her perfect appearance, her smile was as dazzling as ten thousand flowers blooming. However, in that moving smile, there was endless sorrow and despair. Just as she had said, she had long given up on Qi Yue. Sometimes, as long as one made a mistake in life, it would be irreversible. Yummou understood this deeply.
"No, Qi Yue." Yu Mou gently combed her long hair, which was slightly messed up by the wind, and said indifferently, "I have only one purpose for coming here this time, and that is to settle the matter between us before the Earth faces a calamity. If I die, I will no longer have to work for the Greek Guardians and Earth. If you were to die, I would be able to devote all my energy to fighting against the upcoming calamity. Why don't we resolve the problem between us before the disaster comes? Otherwise, who can say if we will be able to continue living in this world when the calamity comes? "
Qi Yue looked at Yummou in surprise. He did not expect Yummou to say such a thing. She took the initiative to challenge him. This made Qi Yue look at her more and more doubtful. Of course, he knew how much pressure Hope was facing now. Just the fact that hell could come at any time would probably make Pope Marty and Athena's inheritor Yummou very busy. Under such circumstances, she had actually come to the Yan Huang Republic to find him, and to fight with him. It had to be said that this was a very strange thing.
"You want to fight me?" Qi Yue looked at Yummou and frowned.
Yummou looked up at Qi Yue and said in a provocative tone, "Why? Don't you dare? "
Qi Yue snorted disdainfully. "If it wasn't for the impending calamity, I wouldn't even be here. The West still needs your strength. When I return from the asteroid, the first thing I will look for is you. Do you think that I will feel afraid when I face you? Blood debt. It must be repaid with blood. "
Yummou said coldly, "Very well, then let the battle decide our fate. Just you and me, do you dare? Of course, if you want to kill me by any means necessary, you can ask your companions to do it. "
Qi Yue shook his head. "In your heart, am I that kind of person? The enmity between us naturally has to be settled by ourselves. Very well, since you have come to me, there is no need for us to say anything more. However, before the battle, I want to know why you chose to come at this time. There is no need to say those high-sounding reasons. With your personality, if there is no special purpose, you will not do so. After all, you have always been very rational. After all, haven't you always been very rational? "
Yummou did not seem to understand Qi Yue's sarcasm, and said indifferently, "Do you want to hear the reason? Very well, I will tell you. The reason is very simple, because the Xuanyuan Sword has been broken. If I do not take advantage of this time to kill you, after you get back the Xuanyuan Sword, I am not sure that I can defeat you. "
"Hahahahaha …" Qi Yue laughed loudly. His laughter was filled with a cold aura. "Good. Good, good. Yummou, it seems that you want me to see you as even more despicable. Do you think that without the Xuanyuan Sword, I can't fight against you? Come, let the hatred between us be settled today. "
Qi Yue was very calm. Although he hated Yummou, but. With his understanding of Yummou, he naturally knew that the reason that Yummou just said was not credible. It was obvious that she was hiding something. However, Qi Yue had absolute confidence in his own strength. Even without the Xuanyuan Sword, he did not believe that Yummou could do anything when he was fully alert. The beautiful figure of Wen Ting, the helplessness of the Emperor's Heart Snow Lotus King before its death, Klinsmann's reluctance in despair, kept flashing in front of his eyes. And Yummou's determination to choose to absorb his Origin of Nature energy, all of which tore and eroded his heart.
"Qi Yue." Ruyue's voice came from behind.
Turning around, Qi Yue saw Ruyue, Ming Ming, and Xu Dong looking at him with concern. He smiled confidently and said gently, "Why, you still don't believe in my strength? Wait for me, soon, I will be back. Return with victory. Miss Yummou, please. "
Yummou looked deeply at Qi Yue, floated up, and flew up into the sky covered by a white light. Her energy had indeed improved again. She just subconsciously released her protective energy and easily covered up the aura emitted from her body. Even the best radar could not detect her figure at this time, not even thermal radars.
Qi Yue also floated up and followed behind Yummou. Ming Ming and Ruyue did not say anything. They knew that this was the biggest knot in Qi Yue's heart, and only he could solve it himself. When a man did what he had to do, as his lover, they could only silently support and pray. They could not stop him.
In just a flash, Qi Yue had already caught up to Yummou, and his faint voice reached Yummou's ears. "Miss Yummou, where should we fight it out?"
Yummou did not look at Qi Yue, her eyes were fixed in front of her. "The capital of the Yanhuang Republic is very close to the sea. To avoid unnecessary trouble, let's fight it out on the open sea. At least we won't be disturbed there. "
"Okay." Qi Yue's reply was only one word. The two of them sped up almost at the same time, turning into two rays of light and flying towards the sea.
Looking at Qi Yue and Yummou's disappearing silhouettes, Ming Ming held Ruyue's hand worriedly and said, "Sister Ruyue, can Qi Yue defeat her?"
Ruyue nodded confidently and said, "He definitely can. Although he has lost the advantage of the Xuanyuan Sword, Qi Yue's strength has increased to an unprecedented level. His overall strength has increased, and he is even stronger than when he had the Xuanyuan Sword. Qi Yue knows what to do. In his heart, we are still there. I believe that he will come back safely. "
Ming Ming clasped her hands in front of her chest, silently praying for her lover. At this moment, she could not help but regret saying that Qi Yue was lazy. It would be great if he could continue to be lazy like that! At least, he would not be in any danger that way.
Qi Yue and Yummou's flying speed was extremely shocking. Back when they were in space, they could even keep up with the speed of asteroids for a period of time, let alone flying on Earth. In half an hour, they had left the mainland far behind and arrived in the sky above the vast and boundless sea.
The open sea was not controlled by any country. This was probably the quietest place on Earth.
The weather was good that day. The sun was shining brightly, shining on the dark blue sea. Those who were familiar with the sea knew that the darker the color of the sea, the deeper it was. The sea where Qi Yue and Yummou were now was undoubtedly the deep sea.
"Let's do it here." Qi Yue stopped flying forward.
Yummou continued to rush forward for a hundred meters before stopping. She turned around and looked at the man who had the greatest influence on her life. For a moment, she could not help but look a little dazed.
The seawater constantly rippled, reflecting the dazzling light. On the surface of the slowly rippling sea, a man and a woman, one black and one white, stared at each other from a distance. The two of them stared at each other blankly for a full minute. Neither of them spoke.
It was Qi Yue who reacted first. He closed his eyes and swept Yummou's alluring face from his mind. He said calmly, "Miss Yummou, can we start now? The problems between us should come to an end today. "
Yummou snapped out of her daze. She looked at him calmly and coldly and said in a low voice, "That's right. I won't be merciful. I hope that you will be the same. "
Qi Yue snorted coldly. "Merciful? I've never thought about that. Ever since I left London, Yummou's name has always been my enemy. "
