Huo Bo turned pale with fright, never having imagined that he would suddenly put himself in such a dangerous situation. If he had known this would happen, he would never have rushed forward.
The ice-cold Laws were so violent that it seemed to freeze the flames in his body. Huo Bo tried his best to dodge, but he was still struck by the dragon claw. In an instant, a few long wounds appeared on his body, and at the wounds, the ice-cold intent wreaked havoc, not even a drop of blood flowed out.
Huo Bo let out a strange cry and without waiting for Fu Chun’s second attack, his round body transformed into a streak of red light and shot off into the distance.
He had actually escaped!
“Trash!” Seeing this, Fu Yu grit her teeth, wishing she could shoot this guy to death with an arrow. At this moment, Zhu Yan had been injured by her sneak attack, Fu Zhun had Yang Kai contained in her mouth. This was the perfect opportunity to eradicate the two Great Elders of the Dragon Race, so even if they had to pay a price, they should be able to accept it.
However, Huo Bo actually escape in such a sorry state! As expected of a coward!
With Yang Kai as the bait, the three Demon Saints and the two Great Elders of the Dragon Race, who had been watching from the sidelines, suddenly attacked. In a flash, Zhu Yan was injured and Huo Bo escaped!
A dragon’s roar rang out once more, and in the sky, the Azure Dragon and Ice Dragon’s massive bodies intertwined as if they had become one, their auras linked together as they raised their giant dragon heads high, overlooking the world.
The Dragon Race’s two Great Elders were husband and wife to begin with, and after countless years of living together, they had long since come to understand each other’s intentions and developed a joint attack.
A single Zhu Yan or Fu Zhun had strength comparable to a Great Emperor, so a combined attack was definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two. If not for this combination attack, how could they have been the opponents of the three Demon Saints?
They had fought each other more than once, so when they saw the two Dragon Race Great Elders act like this, whether it was Xue Li or Fu Yu, they both sighed in their hearts, knowing that their best opportunity had been lost. Now, even if they were to fight to the death, it was unlikely they would be able to do anything to them. At most, both sides would suffer heavy losses.
With their Qi connected, the ice cold energy from Fu Zhun’s body sealed the wound on Zhu Yan’s chest and abdomen. The Azure Dragon’s strength lay in its ability to restore itself, so it had an indestructible life force inside its body. Even though it seemed to have suffered some serious injuries, it wouldn’t suffer any major injuries for a while.
Fortunately, Fu Yu’s arrow had landed on Zhu Yan’s body. If the target had been Fu Zhun, it would have been quite troublesome.
Inside the mountain valley, the fourteen Star Boundary legions had almost all been evacuated. With Yang Kai’s previous refinement and the World Bead he had brought back this time, although there were many people in the army, their mobility was much higher.
shuā shuā shuā…
A number of figures flew over and stood beside the Dragon Race’s two Great Elders. These were the Pseudo Emperors who had been pestering the Demon Race’s Half Saints. With Li Wuyi as their leader, nearly twenty of the Star Boundary's Pseudo Emperors and Half Saints each freed themselves from their opponents and arrived in front of the mountain valley.
They had been paying attention to the movements of the Star Boundary legions and felt that the time had come, so there was naturally no need for them to fight with the Demon Race masters.
Without their suppression, the Demon Race’s Half Saints also regained their freedom and came to Xue Li and Fu Yu.
As they stared at each other, their auras silently collided, causing the space around them to fluctuate, seemingly unable to withstand the pressure and could collapse at any moment.
Xue Li clasped his hands behind his back as a cold light flashed across his scarlet eyes, “Sooner or later, I’ll make you suffer a miserable death.”
Fu Zhun coldly snorted, “When that day comes, it won’t be too late to boast!”
Saying so, she and Zhu Yan slowly retreated to the back of the mountain valley while Li Wuyi and the others spread out to protect them. However, what made them feel slightly relieved was that even after everyone had retreated to the Space Array, there was still no movement from the Demon Race’s side.
Knowing that this battle had reached such a stage, there was no point in continuing to tangle with each other. Their strengths were similar, so neither of them could do anything to the other.
However, for the Star Boundary, this battle had been completely lost. It wasn’t that their strength was inferior, but rather that the Demon Land had already corroded the entire Star Soul Palace and was still constantly expanding.
This Holy Land that had protected the Southern Domain’s Martial Dao for many years, this Divine Palace that symbolized the highest peak of the Southern Domain’s Martial Dao, was finally seized by the Demon Race.
At the Space Array, a light flashed and everyone disappeared.
Xue Li stared at them coldly until everyone from the Star Boundary left before saying, “We need to speed up.”
Fu Yu put away her Bow and said, “It’s about time.”
“How much longer?” Xue Li turned to look at her.
“According to the news from all over the world, it should be at most three months.”
“Three months!” Xue Li’s lips curled into a mocking smile, “Then let them enjoy these three months.”
…
His mind floated up and down, as if he was floating in a vast ocean. All sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind as strange pieces of information emerged. These were things he had never understood before, but now, for some reason, he had somehow comprehended them.
After an unknown period of time, Yang Kai suddenly opened his eyes when a ray of light emerged from the darkness.
“Husband!”
Yang Kai turned his head and saw several beautiful faces staring at him, all of them filled with anxiety and concern. Little Senior Sister’s eyes were slightly red and swollen, obviously having cried before.
“Husband!” Su Yan called out softly again. Although she tried her best to suppress her voice, it was still trembling slightly. During the time Yang Kai was unconscious, some of them had been accompanying him. Now that Yang Kai had woken up, they finally felt relieved.
Great Elder Zhu Yan had said that as long as Yang Kai could wake up, there would be no problem, but if he were to fall into a coma from now on, it would be quite troublesome. After all, Yang Kai’s injuries were related to the Demon Saint and were completely different from before. No one knew what would happen to him.
Yang Kai smiled and stretched out his hand to wipe her face. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Su Yan seemed a bit reserved, but she still suppressed the shyness in her heart and reached out to hold Yang Kai’s hand, allowing him to caress her face.
“Why are you crying?” Yang Kai stretched out his other hand and grabbed Xia Ningchang’s tender arm, “I’m fine now.”
It would have been better if he hadn’t said so, but now that he did, Little Senior Sister’s tears began to flow again as she lay on the bed, her shoulders trembling as she tried to suppress her sobs.
Affected by her, Luo'er, Xue Yue, and even Zhu Qing’s eyes turned red as they quietly turned their heads away, secretly crying.
Yang Kai tried to comfort them one by one, but even if he talk until his mouth and toungue goes dry, it was useless.
Just as he was feeling helpless, a cold voice rang out from behind him, “What are you crying for? He’s not dead yet, get out!”
If it was anyone else who had spoken like this, Su Yan and the others would definitely not agree, but the one who had spoken was Fu Zhun, so how could any of the girls dare to disobey? This Second Elder had always been cold and stern, only showing a trace of tenderness in front of Yang Xiao. If they disobeyed her, there would be no good outcome.
After telling Yang Kai a few things, the girls reluctantly left.
Yang Kai got up from the bed and followed Fu Zhun into the room. Zhu Yan quickly said, “If you don’t feel well, just lie down and don’t move.” As he spoke, he coughed lightly, indicating that his injuries had yet to heal.
Previously, he had been shot by Fu Yu and also injured by Huo Bu’s self-explosion. Although his life was not in danger, his injuries were not light.
Yang Kai replied, “I’m not feeling uncomfortable, I’m fine.”
Indeed, although he had just woken up from his coma, Yang Kai didn’t feel the slightest bit of discomfort. On the contrary, his body was filled with energy and he didn’t know what was happening.
Zhu Yan was stunned as he and Fu Zhun looked over and saw that Yang Kai was indeed fine, causing them to click their tongues in wonder.
Ordinary High-Rank Demon Kings wouldn’t be able to survive if they were targeted by a Demon Saint, but Yang Kai had managed to fight Xue Li head-on. Although he had been in a difficult situation at the time, it was fortunate that he hadn’t died, but who would have thought that there wouldn’t be any repercussions?
What caught the two Elders attention even more was that Yang Kai’s eyes had also become much more profound, as if they contained a profound light, making it difficult to see through them.
“Is there something the two of you need?” Yang Kai had some guesses in his heart. If it weren’t for this, how could Zhu Yan not have gone to treat his injuries and instead wait for him to wake up?
“I do have something to ask you,” Zhu Yan nodded.
“Sit down and talk,” Yang Kai gestured.
There was tea on the table, so Yang Kai took out a teacup and poured it for them, pushing it in front of him and filling his own cup. As he sipped it, he recalled the feeling when he had blocked Xue Li’s punch.
While he was unconscious, that scene had appeared countless times, allowing him to gain some insights.
Fu Zhun said bluntly, “The main reason I came to find you this time was to ask about your spear…”
Before she could finish speaking, Yang Kai suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the Azure Dragon Spear, handing it over to Fu Zhun with a faint smile, “Second Elder, you can see for yourself.”
An ancient and desolate dragon aura rushed towards her, as if a giant dragon had walked out from a painting of the long river of history and arrived in front of her. The Dragon Clan’s Source in Fu Zhun’s body suddenly jumped out of her control, and her expression couldn’t help becoming startled as she quickly reached out to receive it.
Zhu Yan also leaned over and examined the Azure Dragon Spear with Fu Zhun.
Outside the hall, Su Yan and the others walked out one after another. A group of people immediately surrounded them and asked about Yang Kai's situation.
Su Yan informed everyone that Yang Kai had woken up and the two Dragon Clan Elders were talking to him, allowing everyone to relax.
Shan Qingluo saw a beautiful figure in the crowd and smiled before walking over to her side and gently poking her, “Sister, Husband is fine now.”
Ji Yao panicked and nodded, “En, I heard you.”
Shan Qingluo sighed lightly, “When my husband was unconscious, he kept calling out the names of us sisters in a daze. It really makes my heart ache.”
Ji Yao forced out a smile, “Junior Brother has you in his heart, so even if he is unconscious, he will naturally remember you.”
Luo'er tilted her head and looked at her, “Sister’s words make sense.” Raising a finger, she pointed at her red lips, putting on a cute and innocent look, but at the same time also putting on a seductive look, “But Sister, my husband also called out your name.”
Ji Yao’s tender body trembled as a red blush appeared on her face as she asked somewhat frantically, “Really?”
“Of course,” Shan Qingluo blinked her big eyes and looked at her innocently, “What’s going on? Sister, do you owe my husband money?”
“No, no.” Ji Yao’s face became even redder, suddenly feeling like someone had seen through her adultery and was at a loss.
Shan Qingluo pondered for a moment before replying, “Oh, then it must be my husband’s fault.”
Ji Yao forced a smile and said, “It’s good that Senior Brother Yang has woken up. Master is waiting for me to return to report, so i will take my leave first.”
Looking at Ji Yao’s fleeing figure, Shan Qingluo couldn’t help pursing her lips into a smile. She really was a thin-skinned person.
