Chapter 1406 - 1406 1392 Drawing the Phoenix Monster onto

Chapter 1406: Chapter 1392: Drawing the Phoenix Monster onto Oneself Chapter 1406: Chapter 1392: Drawing the Phoenix Monster onto Oneself Ren Haotian looked at Guan Yi and called out, “Elder Guan, you truly command people’s respect. I don’t want to draw your blood, nor do I wish to make things difficult for you, so you’d better hurry and flee for your life.”

Guan Yi said with a sneer, “Thanks for the suggestion, and while said, I am indeed saddened by what happened to your father, I am quite unwilling to see you help the Dragon Slaying Clan to go against the Immortal-Demon Realm and destroy it.”

With a cold laugh, Ren Haotian said, “I’m afraid it isn’t a matter of what you’re willing or unwilling to do. As you can see now, the Immortal-Demon Realm is but a rabble and will not amount to much. They will eventually be defeated, so you might as well save your own life.”

“Thank you for your advice, but I won’t live a life of cowardice,” said Guan Yi. “Even if I must die, I will give the last drop of blood for the Immortal-Demon Realm.”

“Then don’t blame me if you get hurt; my swords have no eyes,” Ren Haotian said as he saw Su Zhanze attempting to flee from behind. He didn’t want to waste words on this obstinate old fool. It would be useless. He called out, “Elder Xi Feng, I’ll take care of this stubborn old man. You go catch that disgraceful one.” Drawing out a surge of energy from the Immortal Pearl, he charged at Guan Yi.

Guan Yi had just heard from Ling Jian that Ye Chen was still alive, and Su Zhanze could not die. In the future, Su Zhanze must join forces with Ye Chen to confront Longhun.

Upon hearing this, he knew the importance of Su Zhanze. Indeed, Su Zhanze must not die. If he were to die, only Ye Chen would be left. It was doubtful whether Ye Chen alone could deal with Longhun. However, if Su Zhanze were there too, then the possibility of them jointly facing Longhun would be significantly higher.

Guan Yi also recognized the gravity of the responsibility. He called out, “Stop them! No one must get past here.”

Seeing this obstinate old fool, so firmly resolved to face death for a decaying Immortal-Demon Realm, knowing that he was no match yet still risking his life, one might wonder if it was pitiful or brave. Damn it, he even felt somewhat moved. But as touching as that was, he was now a member of the Dragon Slaying Clan and had to consider its interests first.

Longhun had also just learned from Meng Xiuluo that Ye Chen was still alive. Hence, he must kill Su Zhanze. As long as Su Zhanze died, Ye Chen would also become inconsequential.

For Elder Xi Feng, the greatest threat was still the Dragon Slayer Sword in Su Zhanze’s hand. Just now, during Su Zhanze’s life-and-death duel with Longhun, the Dragon Slayer Sword had even broken the protective layer built by the Sacred Spirit Stone.

If it were not for the Moon Beast’s innate protective layer and its tremendous energy, it could have likely been defeated by Su Zhanze. Longhun had won by only the slimmest margin, indicating just how great a threat the Dragon Slayer Sword posed.

Now that they knew Ye Chen was still alive, Elder Xi Feng felt even more strongly that Su Zhanze must not escape, and the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hand must be seized.

It was unexpected that amidst the chaos of fleeing for their lives, there were still some who knew staying meant certain death. It seemed the Immortal-Demon Realm did have some sentimental individuals.

But there were only a few of them left.

Ren Haotian confronted Guan Yi, but Guan Yi had someone block Elder Xi Feng.

At that moment, the Evil Spirit burst in, and at the same time, a thick black smoke arose, enveloping everyone as if they were in a dark fog, barely able to see their own hands.

The towering Evil Spirit and the Moon Beast, intending to slay those from the Immortal-Demon Realm, found it quite challenging to act in the chaotic, blurred vision.

Whenever their eyes locked onto someone from the Immortal-Demon Realm, preparing to hurl a Fireball at them, they soon found that, in addition to killing some from the Immortal-Demon Realm, they also killed some from the Dragon Slaying Clan.

Those from the Immortal-Demon Realm tried to blend in with the Dragon Slaying Clan; even though they couldn’t face the Evil Spirit and the Moon Beast, the latter couldn’t haphazardly attack, since they could easily end up killing their own. Moreover, Baili He couldn’t fully control the Evil Spirit.

Longhun could control the Moon Beast because he had the help of the Sacred Spirit Stone, as well as his own merits.

Longhun had hoped to indulge in a grand bloodbath, but it seemed he was bound to be disappointed and had to revert back.

Lou Xuancheng knew they were not their opponents, and could only think of various ways to buy time. Now, all he could think of was to create chaos, so the Dragon Slaying Clan members couldn’t find their way. Fortunately, the Immortal Beasts and the flying Winged Dragons from the Immortal-Demon Realm could be of help.

The people of the Dragon Slaying Clan could not simply be ignored.

Longhun found Ren Haotian and asked, “Where is Su Zhanze?”

“This old fool blocking my way isn’t afraid of death. They’ve escaped in the chaos, and Elder Xi Feng went after them,” Ren Haotian replied.

“Utterly ignorant of death,” Longhun leaped over with a palm strike, and Guan Yi, along with a dozen others, were spun out by a tornado, lifeless. Longhun said, “Not even worth a strike.”

Ren Haotian shouted, “Don’t just stand there! Chase after them! Don’t let Su Zhanze escape, and seize the Dragon Slayer Sword from him!”

The Immortal-Demon Realm was ultimately a lost cause. However, Lou Xuancheng, Guan Yi, and Song Zheng’an made efforts that created a chance for escape.

“Find a way to locate Su Zhanze for me; don’t let that guy get away,” Longhun commanded.

Ye Chen and Yu Yun had to meet up with Ouyang Yue and the others, but there has been no news of the big battle until now, and they have no idea what the current situation is like—it’s getting so urgent it could drive someone up the wall.

Guo Yuyun was very anxious, but she didn’t show it, and so was Ye Chen, still waiting for news. They had already sped up, but even with wings, they couldn’t possibly fly there that quickly.

As soon as the ship docked, Ye Chen handed over the people to Li Mo and the Red Demonic Spirit to take charge of, and took Guo Yuyun and Yang Tao’er alone toward the battleground.

For them, since they couldn’t make it in time for the battle, there was no point in being anxious now. They guessed that the outcome of the battle, whether a loss or victory, must have already taken place, so it was better not to think about it anymore.

But leading a large group of people wasn’t Ye Chen’s style, so he decided not to follow the main troop.

Originally, Yun’er was with them, but worried about Ye Chen’s situation, this crazy guy actually managed to possess himself with the Phoenix Monster.

During the time that Ye Chen was away, the Phoenix Monster found the Red Demonic Spirit again.

Ye Chen was still worried that Su Zhanze might not be a match for the enemy. If Su really wasn’t, what then? He had to think of a solution and thought of the Phoenix Monster, with whom he felt some connection.

Guo Yuyun was extremely opposed to it, but in Ye Chen’s case, opposition was always futile, not because he was autocratic, but because Ye Chen realized the importance of this matter. If Su Zhanze was defeated and he didn’t have sufficient strength, how would he face Longhun later? He figured that they might need it sooner than later and so just went ahead with it.

He promised Guo Yuyun that if Su Zhanze won, he would immediately force the Phoenix Monster out and listen to everything she said.

She agreed because she trusted Yang Tao’er’s skills.

However, Yang Tao’er still thought they were crazy. Guo Yuyun actually agreed to this, and now they might fall into demonic possession at any time, yet he dared to do so. Apart from being crazy, no other explanation made sense.

Ye Chen said, “Your medical skills haven’t regressed, have they? I feel quite hot.”

“Of course, you would feel hot with a monster possessing you,” Yang Tao’er replied coldly.

“You should give me a thorough check to see if something went wrong.”

“Nothing went wrong, except for your brain.”

“My brain is perfectly normal, no problems whatsoever.”

“Really? It feels like it’s been kicked by a donkey to me.”

Guo Yuyun also couldn’t believe that she had agreed to let Ye Chen do this. She must have been drunk at the time; otherwise, how could she have done such a thing?

“Just wait until you start barking madly like a rabid dog,” Yang Tao’er said, knowing he was just taking precautions.

Ye Chen listened to her, ready to expel the Phoenix Monster at any moment, and that’s why he did it. Plus, they had spent three whole days on it, and he had used the Sacred Spirit Stone. He knew how powerful the Sacred Spirit Stone was, far beyond what the Wolf King’s Ring could withstand. If Longhun really defeated Su Zhanze, where would he find three days to lure the Phoenix Monster into his body? There just wasn’t that much time to spare.

Maybe he really doubted Su Zhanze, thinking that Su couldn’t overcome Longhun. That’s why he did it, especially given his current condition.

Ye Chen said, “Although I feel hot, it still feels quite good. Maybe because the Phoenix Monster is inside, pressing down the magic power, which dares not act recklessly now.”

“Sooner or later, you’re going to explode,” Yang Tao’er said.

“No, how could a person explode? You must be talking in your sleep. That kind of thing, how could it ever happen?”

Suddenly, some light appeared ahead, like a dark cloud opening up to a hidden village. It had been dark for two hours already, and they hadn’t even had dinner yet.

The light, like something that could save the soul, made Ye Chen say, “Ah, it seems the heavens are indeed watching over us, not willing to let us starve like this.” That should be a small town; they could already hear the cries of grilled sesame seed cake sellers.

Yang Tao’er knew that Guo Yuyun was worried. She couldn’t hide her feelings well and had been quiet all day. At first, Yang Tao’er was afraid of disturbing the couple, after all, they were together, but later on, she felt lucky to have come along. Otherwise, the two of them could have walked the entire way in silence, like two mutes. It was actually their presence that helped to ease the atmosphere, especially in these pitch-black nights, walking in the woods without a word—it indeed was quite frightening.

Hearing the cries of grilled sesame seed cake sellers, their stomachs seemed to receive a call and began to growl.

That was a street, with the inscriptions on the stone stele no longer clear, already eroded by the rain, and at night, becoming even more blurred.
