Chapter 648: Chapter 648: Rescue Arrives

“Damn it, who are all these people?” At the same time, outside the house, Demoness and Soul Destroyer were also caught in a fierce battle. Out of nowhere, these figures emerged. Without saying a word, they went straight for the kill. However, as war generals of the Netherworld Palace, the two were not pushovers and calmly parried the incoming attacks.

“There are many of them, and their coordination is excellent. They must be a specialized assassin team.” Soul Destroyer surveyed the crowd. In fact, the intention of these people was clear; the moves they used were lethal, clearly aiming to eliminate them and leave Ye Shikai without any support.

“I’m worried about the Boss’s safety. I’ll cover you while you rush in to check.” Soul Destroyer’s expression was grave, blood dripping from his Long White Sword; he looked anxiously into the distance, wondering why the reinforcements of the Netherworld Palace’s Hidden Guard still hadn’t arrived.

“Can you handle it?”

“Of course, I can. Now go!” Soul Destroyer yelled as a figure appeared before him, a man in black holding a sharp blade, thrusting straight at Soul Destroyer.

“Seeking death.” Soul Destroyer’s left hand shot out, gripping the arm of the man in black, while his right hand pierced the man’s heart through with the Long White Sword.

Demoness dashed towards the villa in a puff of smoke when suddenly, two red lights flashed before her. The next second, Demoness was startled into retreating several steps as a Mothman burst out, its wings like two cutting blades, slashing open a gash in the wall.

“Bang.” Demoness swung her Soft Sword, attempting to slash the wings of the Mothman, but it was ineffective. The Mothman, standing two to three meters tall with arms over a meter long and elongated bladelike fingers, was like wielding two bayonets. As the saying goes, ‘the longer, the stronger,’ and Demoness struggled to get close.

“Bang.” Suddenly, a dark figure sprang from behind Demoness, slamming into her back.

“Spurt.” Blood spurt forth violently. Caught off guard and harshly struck, Demoness fell to the ground and turned to see that the one who had ambushed her was another Mothman.

“Heh heh, who would’ve thought that you two were still not dead.” On the rooftop stood a woman shrouded in black gauze, mockingly gazing at the injured Demoness on the ground.

“Forget it, if they can’t kill you, let these monsters do it.” said the woman in black gauze amusingly, waving her hand as two Mothmen charged aggressively at Demoness.

“Don’t.” Seeing this, Soul Destroyer deflected the attack of two men in black with his sword, his body transformed into a streak of white light, lunging towards where Demoness lay.

“Moon God Spell—Falling Stars.” As the saying goes, easier said than done, several streaks of silver light shot from afar, bombarding the two Mothmen with a violent explosion, which surprisingly repelled them.

“Who’s there?” The woman in the black gauze jumped down from the rooftop, blade at the ready, eyeing the scene before her.

“Lord Moon God, Lord War God, what are you doing here?” Upon seeing the newcomers, Soul Destroyer was overjoyed. These were two Main Gods, immensely powerful.

“Ghost told us everything. You are injured, retreat for now.” Ji Qian, holding the jewel-encrusted Magic Wand, spoke indifferently, turning her cold gaze on the woman in black gauze.

“Where is he?” Ji Qian was on the verge of erupting in anger. Why had this woman come down from the second floor? And what about these two monsters? Could it be that Ye Shikai was already dead?

“Humph, go find him yourself.” The woman in black gauze dropped these words and then swiftly left the scene. The two Mothmen took to the skies, and the men in black who had appeared earlier also retreated. Wang Kai wanted to give chase but was stopped by Ji Qian.

“Why are you stopping me?”

“Don’t forget our goal,” Ji Qian said coldly before she entered the villa directly.

“Where are you? Where are the people?” Ji Qian ran inside, shouting at the top of her lungs. The villa was in disarray with signs of fighting everywhere; black scorch marks, as if burned, remained on the white walls. And on the second floor, lingering smoke could faintly be still seen. Clearly, a fierce battle had ensued here, and Ji Qian was worried. She had heard about the capabilities of those monsters from Ghost, who mentioned they were impenetrable. This reminded her of the undead beasts in the Atlantis mausoleum, and she wondered how Ye Shikai was doing now.

“Cough cough, stop yelling, I’m here,” a coughing voice came from the kitchen at that moment.

Ye Shikai, supporting the unconscious Luo Shiqi, slowly walked out.

“Thank goodness, thank heavens, you’re okay,” Ji Qian was relieved when she saw them and walked up excitedly.

“Boss, are you guys alright?”

“Old Ye, really, running out to save people on your wedding day, we almost…” Wang Kai started to say, but was cut short by a fierce pinch to his waist from Ji Qian, causing him to inhale sharply from the pain.

“What happened?” Understanding the gravity of the situation, Ye Shikai quickly followed up with another question.

“Forget it, it’s nothing serious. Don’t you have a wedding to get back to? You should hurry back,” Ji Qian glanced at him coldly and said, “Do you really want Qingyu to wait any longer?”

“Yes, yes, yes,” Ye Shikai quickly agreed.

“We’ll take care of Miss Luo, you and the Soul Destroyer Demoness need to hurry back to the ceremony hall,” Ji Qian glanced at her watch, “It’s twelve o’clock now, if you rush back immediately, it shouldn’t be considered late.”

“Then I’ll leave it to you.”

Crown Hotel, banquet hall.

Actors and singers invited from TV stations had already started performing on stage. Although it was an emergency and the schedules were hard to adjust, Netherworld Palace’s deep pockets had spent tens of millions to invite these singers over to stabilize the situation. Ghost on the second floor was closely observing the expressions of the guests, who appeared to be becoming indifferent. It was evident; they had been waiting for too long.

“This isn’t good. Why hasn’t the boss come back yet?” Ghost’s face showed worry. It was already past twelve o’clock, and although the dishes had been served one after another, could this be called a wedding without the bride and groom showing themselves?

“Ghost, has he returned?” At this moment, a soft voice sounded behind Ghost.

“Sister-in-law, how come you’re up here? Please go back and rest backstage,” Ghost said as he moved forward to support Su Qingyu, who seemed somewhat weak and wore a concerned look on her face.

“Where is he? Why hasn’t he come back yet?” Su Qingyu seemed a bit reproachful. An hour had passed, and she was no fool; she could tell that Ghost was deliberately keeping something from her.

“He’ll be back soon, sister-in-law, don’t worry. I’ve got these stars here, please wait a bit longer,” Ghost started to feel anxious, and Su Qingyu’s gaze seemed very cold. This time, it appeared she was determined.

“Then I’ll just stand here and wait. I’ll wait till he comes back. I don’t believe that he will give up on this wedding,” Su Qingyu said firmly.
