Chapter 673: Hundreds of flowers blossom
Translator: Sigma Editor: Hitesh
Yun Hao and Yu Wan Jiang were at the Second Sky of True God Realm, the same realm as Qin Gu Chuan, Guan Hu, and the others. Four other masters of the small forces joined them, who were at the First Sky of True God Realm.
As soon as they moved, Qin Gu Chuan's team felt chilled, but the flame of anger was burning inside them. They felt betrayed.
Yun Hao had been with them all the time, even though he wouldn’t help them. However, they had never thought that Yun Hao and the others dared to attack them.
Qin Gu Chuan and Guan Hu had broken that mental challenge. They came here from the gates of the Utmost Eight Purgatories City. When they reached this area, all of them had been damaged badly. Their souls and Essence Qi was lost by a big part. Qin Gu Chuan had many visible wounds, which were as severe as Nie Ruo.
Normally, if Yun Hao and Yu Wan Jiang wanted to approach Qin Gu Chuan’s group, they also had to break the mental challenge and go through the gates.
But it didn’t happen the same way.
Shi Yan was the master of the Utmost Eight Purgatories City. He could control everything in this place. When his Sea of Consciousness changed, the city would change accordingly.
When Yun Hao and Yu Wan Jiang took action, Shi Yan just cracked a smile. A flow of soul energy rolled, and a wide, safe passage appeared in front of Yun Hao’s group.
As Yun Hao’s group could skip the gates, they didn’t need to struggle mentally. Eventually, they approached the five people of Qin Gu Chuan’s group without a break.
Moreover, six people of Yun Hao’s team were covered in the halo of the Utmost Eight Purgatories City’s seal. This seal floated above them, illuminating their bodies. This seal protected this group from the effects of the barriers and restrictions here.
In other words, their energy wouldn’t be weakened, as the barriers and restrictions of the city wouldn’t affect them. They could always urge their power to the acme.
Even the chaotic energy that Qin Gu Chuan’s group had experienced had become normal under the light of the Utmost Eight Purgatories City’s seal. Yun Hao’s group didn’t feel their Essence Qi stagnate in their bodies.
Six people of Yun Hao’s group were stirred up, while the five of Qin Gu Chuan’s group grimaced. Anxiety rose in their hearts.
If it were a normal battle, the six people of Yun Hao’s team were no match for Qin Gu Chuan’s team.
The five people of Qin Gu Chuan’s group were at the Second Sky of True God Realm each, while the four masters of the small forces were only at the First Sky of True God Realm.
However, in the Utmost Eight Purgatories City, Yun Hao’s team wasn’t affected. Quite the contrary, the five experts of Qin Gu Chuan’s team had been damaged a lot under many restrictions and barriers. Under these circumstances, their realm and power weren’t equal to Yun Hao’s team.
Yun Hao’s team had the upper hand right at the beginning of this battle. When the light of treasures and different kinds of energies bloomed radiantly, Shi Yan felt calm, beaming a relaxed smile.
It was unknown when Qi Tian Oldie Long Zhu had come to him. Long Zhu’s face was glowing healthily. His eyes could show his spirit, but his aura wasn’t profound and torrential as it was before. Apparently, the old man hadn’t recovered fully yet.
"Shi Yan, do you have to do this?" Long Zhu’s countenance was complicated as he sighed. "Qin Gu Chuan’s team’s also human. You’ve asked Yun Hao to fight them, which isn’t different from wearing out the force of the Human Clan. The alien tribes... are still out there. I think it isn’t good."
Yang Tian Emperor frowned, but he didn't say anything.
Li Zheng Rong, Di Shan, Bing Qing Tong, and Han Cui kept silent, looking at Shi Yan.
"Qin Gu Chuan’s team wants to kill me. I’m not going to let them in. About Yun Hao... I just need them to be on the opposite side to Qin Gu Chuan’s team. They don’t need to risk their lives against them. In other words, I’m worried that they can’t be determined at the critical time. If so, when we fight with the five alien tribes, I can’t be more certain."
Shi Yan paused, kept silent for several seconds, then said, "Old Long, your wounds can’t be healed that fast. Please come to the city center and watch over it for me. If something unexpected happens, please notify me early. As for this place... just let me handle it. I will arrange things properly."
Long Zhu beamed a forced smile and nodded. He knew the young man was determined, so he returned to the city center without talking more.
After he left, Shi Yan’s thought changed constantly. Flows of pure soul energy turned into countless invisible beams of light, scattering everywhere.
Passages glowed radiantly just, like the doors of God, extending outside the city to make way for the other people.
Leng Dan Qing, Shuang Yu Zhu, Zhu Yi, and the others smiled cheerily, following each other, walking in the light passage. From different passages Shi Yan had created, they entered the city from the secret corners.
People who came here to act against Shi Yan like Xia Qing Hou, Bai Gen Seng, Feng Xiao, and Xue Mu had their face gloomy and agitated.
Some of those people hastened to get on the light passage to enter the city center.
However, when those people stepped on the light passage, it then divided into different sections. Their section would explode shortly, leaving them as a pulp of meat.
At this moment, Shi Yan smiled coldly, his mouth as sharp as a saber. His face gave people a deep fear, making them shiver.
"I told you. If you don’t meet the requirements, you should wait outside. Otherwise, you’ll die sooner!" His eyes raked through many people, falling on Xia Qing Hou, Shen Lin, Dong Jin, and the warriors who had betrayed the Yang family.
"Head Master! Please spare us!" Shen Lin and Dong Jin struggled from the crowd. Many warriors who used to belong to the Yang family kneeled down, begging.
"Master, please let us in. We were muddled. We are f*cking a*sholes. Please spare us!" A warrior pounded his head on the ground, crying pathetically. He was like a stray dog, as he kept begging for Yang Tian Emperor’s mercy.
Shen Lin and Dong Jin screamed continually. "Head Master, we’ve been fighting for the Yangs for so many years. Even if we don’t have merits, you’ve seen our efforts. We’ve made mistakes this time. We swear we won’t repeat our mistakes!"
Everybody knew that the forest was no longer the same. Seeing Lin Meng and Nie Ruo being killed, they all were awakened.
Everybody understood that they had underestimated Shi Yan’s team. When they found that the alien tribes had blocked the Ice and Fire Secret Domain, they knew it was a serious mistake they could never make up for.
They couldn’t go back. In the Perpetual Night Forest, only this city was considered safe. If they could get there, they would be safe for now, and they could even dodge this calamity. People who couldn’t get in would be pitiful. The pagans would kill them shortly.
Everybody feared death. Even if they were hostile at first, when the time came, they would show their real colors.
Shen Lin and Dong Jin were the ones who had betrayed the Yang family. They had joined the alliance because they were afraid of death and the massacre of the alien tribes. But now, they wanted to return, begging for Yang Tian Emperor’s mercy.
"You sons of b*itches that never learn…" Yang Tian Emperor cracked a sharp smile, then shook his head and said, "I’ve said it earlier. If you leave, you should never come back. You know how I am. Don’t waste my time. After this, if the alien tribes haven’t killed you, I will do that."
His words were no doubt a death sentence for them.
Yang Tian Emperor was the hero of the Endless Sea, but he was also cruel. How could he be a merciful person?
Shen Lin, Dong Jin, and their people were ash-gray. Deep despair appeared on their faces, as they felt helpless and vulnerable.
Shi Yan’s eyes scanned through those people. Suddenly, he was surprised, as his watchful eyes stopped at a spot.
Wei Zhai and a dozen of warriors of Yan Ke and Wen Di’s team were bewildered as they thought that Shi Yan was looking at him. After a while, they recognized his target.
Wei Zhai and some young men turned away to look at the two beautiful girls behind them. They were stunned.
They were He Qing Man and Qu Yan Qing!
It was unknown if they had intended to make themselves the most beautiful flowers among this group. The two girls from the Endless Sea had their beauty exposed, as if they were blessed with divine light, glowing gorgeously.
Although they were in this perilous place, there were many young men beside Wei Zhai who drooled while looking at the two girls.
He Qing Man and Qu Yan Qing’s beauty was shining gloriously. Strange light sparkled in their eyes as their hearts were filled with joy.
‘He... He saw me. Finally, he saw me!’
The two girls screamed in their hearts.
"You two come here," Shi Yan was surprised for a while, then nodded at them.
A light passage glided over Wei Zhai’s team, extending towards He Qing Man and Qu Yan Qing like the staircase to heaven.
Everybody was stunned with an odd countenance.
"He... turns out he likes this type!" Some people muttered in the crowd.
Many girls who deemed herself beautiful got cheered up. They hurried to expose their beautiful figures, waving at Shi Yan. "Let us in... We... We will repay with our bodies! As long as you let us in, you can do whatever you want!"
They were some innocent teenagers, young girls, and mature women. They waved their hands, throwing him seductive looks.
It seemed that if they got Shi Yan’s eyes on them, it would be their biggest chance to get rid of this sorrowful area and gain the right to survive.
Shortly, flowers bloomed everywhere. Their charming voices echoed continually. The battlefield suddenly turned into the stage of a beauty contest. The ambiance became ridiculous.
