Before the voice faded away.
In the Void around Lifeng City.
The ripples of light began to flash and the endless sandstorm began to vibrate, producing strange sounds of friction.
Murderous spirit instantly filled the heavens and earth.
A sharp and fierce light screen surrounded the more than one hundred Human Race escapees from all sides.
Numerous people, who were dressed in the same style of clothing as Zhang Ye and the others, came out from the halo of light, headed towards the city walls that Zhang Ye and the others were situated. These people were also disciples of the Ancient Sky Dragon Sect. With a rough glance, there were at least thirty people, and all were masters above the Heaven Ascension realm. Their strength was enough to crush the one hundred escapees in the ruins of the ancient city.
The expression on the face of Zhang Ye and the others changed greatly.
“Not good...” Qiao Qu hurriedly made eye signals at the other senior and junior brothers, indicating them to quickly protect the elderly and children.
And it was at this time that Zhang Ye had already recognized that among the experts who had come, there was Elder Ming Jue.
The fact that Elder Ming Jue had led many experts here suggested that they have come prepared. They did not discover them out of chance, and given the situation, there was only one possibility - the plan in Yu Leaf City, which was led by senior brother Jin Yu and the others, had failed, and they most likely have fallen.
This was definitely the worst news.
“Hahaha, a group of mice are hiding here, haha...” Elder Ming Jue looked down from the Void, taking in everything at a glance. He knew that this surprise attack was successful, and that the escapees were all here.
“Where\'s senior brother Jin Yu? How do you know about this place, old thief? It must be... what have you done with senior brother Jin Yu?” Cheng Kui snapped at Elder Ming Jue.
“Kekeke... You brothers really have deep relationships, in that case, how can your Master, I, separate you guys, kekeke...” Elder Ming Jue’s eyes were piercing and ferocious, and with the wave of his hand, he tossed out a head that was stained with blood out of thin air. It looked as though he was discarding trash onto the pile of rocks near the city wall.
The wound across the neck was uneven, as though it had been severed by a blunt object a little at a time, but there was also a lot of skin, flesh and bones left, simply like he had been gnawed by animal teeth. There was not an unmarked piece of skin on his body.
“It\'s senior brother Jin Yu!” Luo Qi let out mournful roar.
He recognized right away the remaining half of a jade hairpin among the blood-stained hair, which was a gift from them to senior brother Jin Yu for his birthday.
“Senior brother Jin Yu!” Zhou Yuanshan and Liu Ming, in spite of being encircled by numerous disciples, directly rushed over to Jin Yu\'s head, carefully wrapped it around in their outer robe and held it in their arms.
“You... are you human? You\'re worse than animals!” Qiao Qu\'s voice choked.
“Jin Yu that stupid idiot had betrayed the sect, but also attempted to steal the treasure of the Ancient Sky Dragon Sect while I went to hunt down that lowly mother and son. He deserves to die, and you, Zhang Ye!” Ming Jue\'s eyes were piercing, and his finger like a sword pointed to Zhang Ye, as he fiercely hissed, “You are a traitor, dare to lead the rebellion and escape the city with so many people, how rebellious!”
“Hmph, Master Ming Jue, speaking of rebellious, I think the entire Ancient Sky Dragon Sect is aware of who betrayed the sect!” With a sneer, Zhang Ye stood in front of Qiao Qu and the other junior brothers.
Behind him, Qiao Qu, Cheng Kui and the others also drew their life weapons.
“Keke... I remember you used to be like a dog in the sect. After hiding around for one month, you guys even dare to disobey your Master, I? But it doesn\'t matter, today all of the people in Lifeng City will not survive, not a single one of you will leave here alive!” Elder Ming Jue grinned, but that smile was sinister and oppressive.
“Ming Jue you old thing, us brothers have treated you with respect all these years. You are a disgrace to our sect, even if you had deliberately made things difficult for us we did not rebel against you. But you, as an elder, had unexpectedly betrayed the sect, and followed the bad example of Cang Li. You really are shameless. Today, at the worst we will die happily, which is better than continuing to live under your abuse of power!” Cheng Kui’s fierce eyes contained a tinge of determination and fearlessness.
“Haha, since you want to die, then your Master, I, will fulfill your wish!” Ming Jue\'s face darkened.
The murderous spirit around him and his imposing manner instantly soared, as he made a hand gesture to the surrounding Ancient Sky Dragon Sect disciples and issued the order, “All attack, haha, Elder Cang Li does not want to see these rebellious people live on in this world. Haha, kill every single one of them, do not let any one of them survive!”
“Understood.”
“Yes.”
There were flashes of light.
The Ancient Sky Dragon Sect disciples landed on the ground in a flash, charging towards the group of escapees.
This situation instantly turned dangerous.
Qiao Qu, Luo Qi and the others knew that today it was difficult to escape death. They no longer had the slightest reservation, and one after another, they activated yuan qi. They took on a sorrowful look, but there was not the slightest fear across their faces. Just as Cheng Kiu had said, what they were about to face was not a fight at the risk of their life but a fight to a happy death.
At least, they would be free.
At the very least, they had a very clear conscience and had lived up to what the Human Race, who trusted them, who expected.
A massacre was about to start.
It was at this time that Zhang Ye gritted his teeth and suddenly spoke, “Wait!”
In the Void.
“Why, want to beg for mercy? It\'s too late!” Ming Jue cast a contemptuous glance.
“Master Ming Jue, since we will no doubt die today, then why not have a fair battle. Let us die like martial artists. I have long heard about your [Clear Sky Dragon Slash], which is known as one of the treasures of the Ancient Sky Dragon Sect. I wonder if Master can show it to me before I die?” Zhang Ye gave a faint smile and a cupped fish salute.
Elder Ming Jue\'s eyes flashed. He swept his eyes over Zhang Ye and the few disciples behind him, revealing a sinister smiling expression.
Although Zhang Ye was known to have a boring and dull personality, and was not good at expressing himself, but he had always been the strongest of the younger generation. Moreover, his perseverance was particularly astonishing. In particular, in recent years, the former master Tian Yunlong had raised him as a successor to the Ancient Sky Dragon Sect. If he was in perfect condition then Elder Ming Jue did not have absolute confidence in winning against him. But now he was exhausted and depleted of yuan qi. It was evident that fleeing for one month had caused both his physical strength and yuan qi to decline greatly. He was nothing to be feared now, and would instead give Elder Ming Jue a good opportunity to show his strength, get rid of the traitors, and the new sect master will inevitably reward him greatly.
If he had killed Zhang Ye it would be an opportunity to spread fame.
“Hahaha, you want to stall for time, haha, so what if I give you this opportunity? Zhang Ye, you are no match for me, don’t say I’m bullying you, you are just an idiot who overestimated yourself. Come together, let your Master, I, send you all to see that traitor Jin Yu!”
As the voice of Elder Ming Jue faded, the imposing manner instantly soared.
Killing intent, like waves of hurricane, surged out.
The yellow sand and dust around had frozen in the Void.
A bizarre and biting cold aura erupted out all of a sudden.
It was incomparably berserk. A landslide of power filled the sky of Lifeng City. It was as though a fiendgod had descended, directly crushing Zhang Ye and the others.
On the city walls.
Zhang Ye, who stood at the front, immediately felt the approaching mountainous power, which was one that he absolutely could not defend against. He tightly clenched his teeth, lurched forward, and the halo of surging yuan qi around him was slightly shaken, evidently affected by a violent force.
But he must not fall.
Behind them were hundreds of innocent people, who did not have the slightest strength to fight back.
Ahh!
A roar broke out all of a sudden.
Zhang Ye made a grabbing motion in the air, bringing out his life weapon, the [Eight Sacrificial Sword].
A beam of orange light was injected into it, awakening the [Eight Sacrificial Sword]. It issued a beast-like roar, and at this time his eyes were blazing with fighting spirit, as though they had been dyed red with blood. The muscles of his limbs instantly expanded, several had already split open. His bones and flesh were visible, blood flowing out, and his feet forcibly crushed the rocks beneath.
“Senior brother Zhang Ye!” Qiao Qu, who was enveloped in a faint layer of cyan force, was as pale as paper, but still firmly and decisively walked over to Zhang Ye, standing shoulder to shoulder with him. Her eyes were gentle as water as she looked at her sweetheart, “I will not be able to be with you this life, but in the next life... I will definitely wait for you to find me!”
“And us.”
Cheng Kui, Liu Ming, Luo Qi and Zhou Yuanshan also took a step forward, taking out their life weapons.
The six people stood side by side, with a sad and fearless look in their eyes. The yuan qi was triggered to the most extreme level, forming a ripple of light that stubbornly resisted against the boundless power.
They should not have been so powerless against an Immortal Step realm expert given the fact that they were all of the Heaven Ascension realm, but the lack of water and food these days, the continuous loss of yuan qi, and also because they had been drawing out blood to extend the lives of other people, had really depleted their strength. They could not even display one-tenth of their true power.
Qiao Qu and the other junior brothers were like saplings in the midst of a storm, swaying side to side. No matter how they tried to operate their yuan qi, they could not stabilize themselves, and were about to be drowned in that endless pressure and killing intent.
“Keke... you idiots can’t even stand steadily, you think you can win against me? Your death is not to be regretted. All disciples listen to the order, do not spare even a dog or chicken in Lifeng City!” Elder Ming Jue looked down in a condescending manner, a thunderous voice bellowed out. The yuan qi and murderous spirit rolled up like waves, becoming more intense than before.
He was about to make a move.
But at this moment.
“Ah?” Elder Ming Jue suddenly had a slight change of expression, and his body went stiff.
Because there was suddenly a little white shadow fluttering in front of him.
It was a snowflake.
An ice crystal that was as gentle and pure as a goose feather, as though it had been sprinkled down from the Ninth Heaven, was uncontaminated by the slightest speck of sand or dust. With a glowing luster, it lightly floated down.
“What\'s going on!” Elder Ming Jue’s eyes darted around the Void, flashing with astonishment. “The life yuan of the Ancient Sky Dragon Domain is almost depleted, all spiritual qi had dissipated, and all living things are dying. It had not rained for a hundred years, how would it snow all of a sudden...”
