Chapter 264: Heavenly Gate (Part Four)

Celestial Lord Fist!

The roar shook the surroundings.

Lu Ye’s punch could be said to be the strongest one since his rebirth.

The people of the Heavenly Gate deserved this kind of wrath.

In his previous life, he had a deadly feud with the Heavenly Gate, which was extremely mysterious, almost floating outside the regular Nine Heavens.

With a fist completely transformed into blood-red, he hurled it maniacally towards the woman.

The void twisted.

The flesh on the woman’s face trembled slightly.

The black robe flew back dramatically, outlining her enchanting figure.

“Boom!”

Palm collided with fist.

The woman stepped back, a tint of red staining her stunningly beautiful face, her eyes revealing a trace of horror.

Is this the Heaven-reaching Realm?

Infinite Celestial Lord, is this seriously the Heaven-reaching Realm?

Jiang Die and Chu Ling appeared simultaneously, transforming into two streams of black mist rushing towards the woman’s body.

The woman’s black robe fluttered wildly.

The black mist was blocked, but then two screams rang out.

Lu Ye attacked again, taking a step forward, his aura growing stronger, and with three continuous steps, his power surged significantly.

The woman could no longer hold her ground, her whole body suddenly turned jade-like.

“Dong!”

The void around the woman fissured at that moment, the violent force causing the earth to crumple, but the woman didn’t budge an inch.

A hint of anger flickered in her eyes.

A strong gust of wind erupted suddenly, sending Lu Ye flying, blood gushing out.

But Chu Ling and Jiang Die, his two main souls, were completely unaffected by the wind pressure, almost touching the woman’s body.

The black robe flew out, covering the two main souls, and she slapped out her palm.

“Boom!”

Lu Ye shattered explosively.

The Aroma of Achievement in Dao erupted wildly, Lu Ye’s broken body turning into blood water, ultimately forming a rolling blood pellet that burst forth with blinding crimson light.

“Wait, I mean no harm!”

The woman hurriedly called out.

She could sense that this big net couldn’t possibly stop that blood pellet; she couldn’t let Lu Ye escape.

However, Lu Ye ignored her, and in an instant, the blood pellet transformed into a shooting star, crashing through the net and vanishing at the ends of heaven and earth.

The Emperor’s Banner saw this and recalled the two main souls, transforming them into purple mist, which vanished into nothingness.

Lin Chuyue couldn’t help but stomp her foot.

“Can’t you see I’m helping you unleash the Aroma of Achievement in Dao? Why are you running away?”

The black robe danced, and Lin Chuyue disappeared.

Lu Ye had already fled a great distance, and even the blood pellet had dimmed.

Inside, Lu Ye’s Nascent Soul was also pale.

This was an upgraded version of the Heavenly Demon Blood Escape.

Using it drained eighty percent of Lu Ye’s essence every time, but the effect was terrifying; even the initial treasure’s big net had been smashed.

It seemed the other party really hadn’t planned to kill him.

That terrifying palm only crushed his body but didn’t continue to suppress him.

He and the Heavenly Gate, well, he had no grudges in this life.

In his previous life, he did smash the Heavenly Gate, because it was an organization guarding the Heavenly Dao, and in his last life, he’d been stealing the Heavenly Dao with the system, aiming to replace it. Naturally, he had to crush the Heavenly Gate first.

Wait a minute…

Guarding the Heavenly Dao???

“System, are they your people?” Lu Ye asked.

“Ding, no they’re not!”

“Then could you ask if they’re associated with Him?”

“Ding, I’ll ask.”

Ninth Heaven!

A white-robed man with mysteriously intricate patterns on his forehead suddenly opened his eyes and looked up.

He was clearly a bit surprised.

The Heavenly Dao had initiated contact with him for the first time.

“I’ll find out for you!”

Eighth Heaven, someone opened their eyes. Huh? The incident from the Fourth Heaven caught this person’s attention? That’s making a mountain out of a molehill!

But since this person asked, he certainly wouldn’t dare to slack off and quickly inquired.

People from the Seventh Heaven??

Sixth Heaven???

Fifth Heaven?????

Fourth Heaven, “Oh, this Lu Ye, we want to recruit him as a member of the Heavenly Gate. We looked in the Heavenly Book and found that to help release the Aroma of Achievement in Dao, we need to crush his body when he’s unprepared, so we sent Lin Chuyue.”

This news was relayed layer by layer.

“Ding, Host, we found out they want to recruit you into the Heavenly Gate. They checked the Heavenly Book and discovered they could help release the Aroma of Achievement in Dao by crushing your body, hence they didn’t give you a heads-up,” the system said.

So it was like that…

But the people of the Heavenly Gate actually knew how to help him release the Aroma of Achievement in Dao?

The Heavenly Book?

Developed by the system?

To be honest, that woman’s actions were indeed easy to misunderstand.

Giving her that punch wasn’t a loss.

Despite her calm demeanor, using her jade-like… um?

Using her jade-colored body to block that strike, Lu Ye could be sure she definitely got hurt badly.

The power of the Celestial Lord Fist could torment her for a long time; the pain would be excruciating, akin to suffering menstrual cramps every moment or the pain from a breast ultrasound.

Can he be blamed for that?

At this moment, the Emperor’s Banner quickly flew over.

In this battle, the Emperor’s Banner had already begun to show its might; that woman’s black robe was undoubtedly a powerful treasure. Without it, even the Emperor’s Banner alone would be enough to give her a run for her money.

Lu Ye felt somewhat embarrassed.

Confirming that Lin Chuyue meant no harm, Lu Ye healed his wounds, waiting for Lin Chuyue’s arrival.

At that time, he could help.

Lin Chuyue was currently holding her stomach, looking pale.

The terrifying punch force couldn’t even be shaken off, ravaging her abdomen.

It seemed she would need some time to wipe out this force.

A Heaven-reaching Realm!

What a Heaven-reaching Realm!

Initially, he thought Lu Ye was just highly skilled in formations, but he hadn’t expected his solo combat abilities to be so strong.

Luckily, she was in the Heaven and Earth Realm and had treasures.

If not, Lu Ye would dare to kill giants!

After helping Lu Ye release the Aroma of Achievement in Dao once, Lin Chuyue planned to make her intentions clear upon seeing him again.

The sincerity of the Heavenly Gate had already been shown.

He shouldn’t refuse, right?

Lin Chuyue began to probe for Lu Ye’s whereabouts. Without him intentionally hiding, she quickly caught a whiff of the Aroma of Achievement in Dao.

Her eyes turned red, but in the next second, her life force entirely vanished, as if she was no longer a living being.

“Lu Ye, Fellow Daoist, please don’t misunderstand. I’m from the Heavenly Gate, and I’m here with good intentions. I only attacked you earlier to help,” Lin Chuyue said.

Lu Ye was still gradually regaining his form.

The broken flesh wasn’t a big deal; it would recover.

However, using the second stage of the Heavenly Demon Blood Escape was an entirely different story.

“I already know,” Lu Ye nodded.

“Do you know our Heavenly Gate’s background?” Lin Chuyue asked.

“I don’t know.”

Lu Ye pretended not to know.

“Our Heavenly Gate belongs to the Heavenly Dao and exists to protect the Heavenly Dao…”

Upon hearing the words ‘protect,’ Lu Ye’s head began to throb.

“Stop, stop, stop! Don’t say it like that. Use a different approach; don’t keep saying ‘protect.’ It makes me uncomfortable.”

This was post-traumatic stress from the guardian role.

“Uh, alright, actually the Heavenly Gate is an organization that helps the Heavenly Dao in exchange for its rewards. Everyone in the organization is talent, and we communicate well. Fellow Daoist, would you like to join us?”

Now that’s more like it.

Just as Lu Ye was about to refuse…

“Ding ding ding, good Host, adorable Host, kind Host, please join us~”

Lu Ye…

Can you really say no to a spoiled system?
