In the two years before the Asura Arena closed, something big had happened in the Yue Yao Battle Battlefield. A mysterious expert had defeated Abro from the Ancient Barbarian Realm and Gu Sheng from the Yellow Dragon Realm, taking the top spot on the Yue Yao Battle Ranking.
When the Yue Yao Battle Ranking was announced, countless Yue Yao were shocked.
After all, they had long known of Abro and Gu Sheng's strength. In the entire Yue Yao Battle Ranking, these two were the most powerful. Ever since they came to the Asura Arena, no one had been able to shake their positions. They had always been each other's opponents.
How could the Yue Yao Battle Ranking, which had been maintained for many years, suddenly be broken by a mysterious expert one day? How could the Yue Yao Battle Ranking not care?
Although there were some spectators that day, there weren't that many of them. In addition, Lu Ye had hidden his name on the Battle List, so other than a few people who knew his background, most people didn't know his specific origin or what his name was.
After that, this Yue Yao Champion, who had risen to fame like a legend, suddenly disappeared without a trace. He never appeared in the Battle Arena again, and his ranking fell again and again. By the time the Asura Arena closed, he was already outside the top 500.
However, no one looked down on him because of this. He was still recognized as the Yue Yao Battle Ranking!
Many people said that this Yue Yao Battle Ranking didn't care about his ranking, so he didn't continue to participate in the Battle Ranking. However, in reality, Lu Ye had been helping the Heavenly Asura Race deal with the bloodline curse during that time. Moreover, he had the same discount as the Heavenly Asura Race, so the benefits of the Yue Yao Battle Ranking could be ignored.
Sun Zheng had undoubtedly watched the battles between Lu Ye, Abro, and Gu Sheng, so he recognized him at a glance.
The other Yue Yao Battle Ranking disciples hadn't seen Lu Ye before. When they heard Sun Zheng's words, they all looked over curiously. They had admired this mysterious Yue Yao Battle Ranking for a long time. Now that he was in person, they all came up to greet him.
Lu Ye returned their greetings.
After all, this was the first time they had met, so there wasn't much to say. They just wanted to get to know each other.
Lu Ye turned to look at Yu Yaorao. Under her nervous and apprehensive gaze, he said, "Junior Sister Yu, I have to go. Take care. We'll meet again if fate wills it!"
Although Yu Yaorao had guessed what Lu Ye was going to say, she was still reluctant to part with him. Pursing her red lips, she nodded and said, "Senior Brother, take care of yourself too!"
Sun Zheng glanced at Yu Yaorao and understood what she meant. He smiled and said, "Are you leaving now? Why don't you take a break? "
To be able to defeat Abro and Gu Sheng, he would definitely become a great talent in the future. Jiu Xuan sighed at his own inferiority. It was obvious that Junior Sister Yaorao was interested in Jiu Xuan. If he could facilitate this fate, it would be beneficial for both Yu Yaorao and Jiu Xuan in the future.
Yu Yaorao was thin-skinned and didn't want to keep her here, but he naturally didn't have such concerns.
Lu Ye shook his head and said, "I appreciate Brother Sun's kind intentions. I should also go find the way home."
Sun Zheng tried his best to persuade him to stay, "There is no need to rush. Fellow Daoist may not know this, but Martial Aunt Cen Xin speculated that this place was the Asura Domain covered by the power of the Asura Field. After the Asura Field closed, we were scattered here. It is difficult to distinguish directions for the time being. Martial Aunt also used some secret methods to deduce Jiu Xuan's location. Instead of looking around aimlessly, why don't you return to Jiu Xuan with us and ask Martial Aunt for help? It might be more convenient than searching on your own."
If Lu Ye didn't use the Seven-colored Divine Lotus to communicate with the Soul Race's ancestral land, this would undoubtedly be a very reliable suggestion, but now that he had faintly sensed the location of a passage to the Soul Race's ancestral land, there was naturally no need to waste time.
Glancing at Yu Yaorao behind Sun Zheng, Lu Ye saw the hopeful look in her eyes, but he still shook his head.
Just as he was about to speak, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from the cabin on the top floor, followed by a woman's voice, "An enemy is attacking. Continue forward and prepare your defenses!"
As soon as the voice fell, Lu Ye vaguely saw a figure fly out from there and rush towards the depths of the Starry Sky.
On the ship, all the cultivators were startled.
Sun Zheng reacted extremely quickly and hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up and activate the defensive array!"
Many cultivators quickly got to work.
Lu Ye couldn't help but spread out his Divine Sense, but soon his brows furrowed because he vaguely sensed that many powerful auras were rapidly approaching them.
At this moment, the violent sounds of Rizhao's battle suddenly came from the depths of the Starry Sky in the distance. It should be Jiu Xuan's Rizhao facing the enemy.
For her to take the initiative to fight, the other party was undoubtedly Rizhao.
"Senior Brother, come with me!" Yu Yaorao suddenly reached out and grabbed Lu Ye's hand, pulling him in a certain direction, and in a moment, they were inside the cabin.
Sun Zheng was already standing there, and many cultivators were sitting in various Spirit Arrays, urging their strength.
"Who are these people?" Sun Zheng asked with a solemn expression.
In one of the detection Spirit Arrays, a cultivator had his eyes closed and was using the power of the Spirit Arrays to scan the surroundings. When he heard Sun Zheng's question, he immediately replied, "I saw Fan Gu's Star Ship!"
"It really is them!" Sun Zheng seemed to have expected this, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "How many of them are there?"
"Less than ten …" the cultivator replied, and then his expression changed. "No, there are at least fifteen of them here!"
Sun Zheng's face paled. Fifteen people was not a large number, but if they dared to come at a time like this, then they were undoubtedly Yue Yao. In other words, there were fifteen Yue Yao here, and how many were there on their side?
He immediately understood the urgency of the situation. Fan Gu's Star Ship had somehow discovered their whereabouts, and Rizhao had first lured Martial Aunt Cen Xin away, and then a dozen Yue Yao had come to attack them. They were trying to kill them all.
The difference in numbers was too great, and they were no match for them at all. He could only give the order to increase their speed to the maximum and escape as quickly as possible.
On Lu Ye's side, Yu Yaorao was still holding his hand tightly, and it was clear that she was very nervous.
"Fan Gu is …" Lu Ye asked softly.
Only then did Yu Yaorao come back to her senses, and she explained, "Fan Gu Galaxy is a galaxy close to Jiu Xuan Galaxy. We don't have a good relationship with them, and there are always conflicts between us. This time, they must have discovered our whereabouts and targeted us."
She didn't expect that they would encounter such a situation after finally reuniting with the cultivators of their galaxy. She couldn't help but feel a little apologetic. "Senior Martial Brother, I've implicated you."
Lu Ye shook his head. At his current cultivation level, cultivators of the same level as him couldn't pose any threat to him. The only one who could threaten him was Rizhao.
However, Fan Gu's side should also be underprepared. Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent so few people. If there wasn't a second Rizhao, he wouldn't be afraid at all.
However, if there was a second Rizhao … He secretly made up his mind. When the time came, he would put Yu Yaorao into the Little Flower Realm and use the power of the red talisman to escape.
"Senior Martial Brother Sun, we can't escape!" a cultivator shouted.
Although this kind of huge ship could accommodate more cultivators, it wasn't as fast as a small ship. The attacking cultivators were all driving small ships, so it was easy for them to catch up.
"Fight!" Sun Zheng's face turned cold. As soon as he gave the order, the battle immediately broke out.
A moment later, the ship kept shaking violently. The cultivators shouted one after another. The strength of the defensive formation was constantly decreasing with the enemy's fierce attacks. Once the defensive formation was broken, the enemy would be able to do whatever they wanted.
Sun Zheng walked up to Lu Ye and bowed. "Fellow Daoist Lu, this is unexpected. I'm afraid you'll be implicated. But if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. We may need your help later. I wonder if you can join forces with us to fight against the enemy?"
Fan Gu's actions had indeed caught Jiu Xuan Galaxy off guard. However, they probably didn't expect that the first place of the Monthly Jade Ranking would be here. Sun Zheng had seen the battle between Lu Ye and Abdullah with his own eyes, so he naturally knew how important the first place of the Monthly Jade Ranking was. If Lu Ye was willing to help, Jiu Xuan Galaxy might be able to turn the situation around.
"No problem." Lu Ye nodded.
At this point, he couldn't just leave. After all, he couldn't tell Fan Gu's people that he wasn't a Jiu Xuan cultivator and ask them to let him go.
Therefore, just as Sun Zheng said, he was already implicated in this matter. Since that was the case, he had no choice but to fight back.
Sun Zheng was overjoyed. "Thank you in advance, Fellow Daoist!"
He turned around and left. It was obvious that he was going to mobilize everyone before the battle.
Lu Ye looked down and said, "Junior Martial Sister Yu, I'm going to meet the enemy."
Yu Yaorao nodded. "Senior Martial Brother, be careful."
Lu Ye shook his hand. Yu Yaorao looked down and realized that she hadn't let go of Lu Ye's hand. Her ears turned red and she quickly let go.
A moment later, the five Yue Yao of Jiu Xuan Galaxy gathered on the deck. Including Lu Ye, there were only six of them.
This didn't mean that Jiu Xuan only had a few Yue Yao. It was just that these were the only ones that could gather. The others were still scattered all over the Asura Realm.
On the other hand, Fan Gu's side had more than a dozen people surrounding the ship. They were using all kinds of methods to break the ship's defensive formation.
"Sun Zheng, how have you been?" It was one of Fan Gu's subordinates, Yue Yao. Her voice was filled with pride and arrogance. "You didn't expect us to meet here, did you?"
Sun Zheng's face was gloomy and he didn't respond.
"Who is the strongest among them?" Lu Ye, who was standing beside him, suddenly asked.
Sun Zheng replied, "That's the guy who shouted. His name is Jiang An, and he's ranked in the top 1000 on the Yueyao Ranking."
"That's indeed not bad." Lu Ye nodded.
There were so many Moonjade Cultivators in the Asura Arena. Anyone who could rank in the top 1,000 of the Moonjade Ranking was clearly an extraordinary figure. As he spoke, Lu Ye looked over at Jiang An, and found him to be somewhat familiar.
I vaguely … seem to … seem to have seen it somewhere before?
As if he had sensed Lu Ye's gaze, Jiang An's gaze shifted, and he saw Lu Ye's face clearly. This caused him to be involuntarily stunned, because at this very moment, he suddenly had the same feeling as Lu Ye.
I vaguely … seem to … seem to have seen this person somewhere before? (End of Chapter)
