“This time, there are no traitors, right?”
During a high-level meeting, the leader of the Divine Clan, named Guang Wuyou, started off on a rather sarcastic note.
It was clear who this remark was directed at.
The Demon Clan’s Tiger Prince glared with wide eyes.
“What do you mean?”
Guang Wuyou smirked lightly, “What could I possibly mean? I’m just afraid that everything is planned perfectly, but at the last crucial moment, someone suddenly flips sides to save someone else. That’d be so embarrassing!”
Upon hearing this, Tiger Prince smashed a stone in front of him into dust with a swipe of his claw.
“Who the hell are you talking about?”
“You know what they say, when the stone hits the dog, the one who yelps the loudest is the one who got hit!”
A monk in a cassock didn’t bother with the drama and stood up to leave.
Ye An quickly stopped him.
“Duo E, where are you going?”
Duo E had a calm expression.
“With the clans being at odds, this plan will definitely fail. What’s the point of me staying here? I might as well go back and chant some scriptures instead,” Duo E spoke bluntly.
“How is it at odds? That’s nonsense! We’re all sitting here to eliminate that Lu Ye before the Human Clan even realizes it,” said Ye An.
“Guang Wuyou, Tiger Prince, can you two act a little more normal? Do you really think that just because Lu Ye hasn’t clashed with you yet, he forever won’t? When he grows stronger and crosses paths with you again, you’ll see what regrets feel like.”
“So, are we joining forces or not? Speak up, you two! If we’re teaming up, then no more nonsense; if not, let’s just disperse right now!” Ye An said with a serious expression.
The atmosphere in the cave was tense.
The fire flickered.
Guang Wuyou and Tiger Prince fell silent.
“Joint effort!”
Guang Wuyou finally spoke.
“Hmph!”
Tiger Prince snorted coldly.
Ye An yelled in anger, “What’s with the snort? Joint effort or not?”
Tiger Prince’s expression was grim, his claws clenched and released.
In the end, he nodded.
“Joint effort!”
“Good, then everyone listen to what I have to say.”
“The final three layers of the Genius Ancient Battlefield are opening! All our clan’s strong ones must arrive; the first thing is to contact the strong ones from each clan to encircle and kill Lu Ye!”
“This is of utmost importance; nothing is more critical than this!”
“Remember, we must fully encircle him!”
“Consider it the last stand before the annihilation of our clans!”
“You all need to bring out everything you’ve got to persuade your strong ones! Don’t drop the ball!”
…
Time ticked by.
Suddenly, Lu Ye looked up.
“Boom!”
A massive roar echoed above in the sky.
The clouds twisted, and the sky began to become more boundless.
Light and shadow danced, and the world was split into layer after layer.
The last three layers of the Genius Ancient Battlefield officially opened, and the faint shackles that bound everyone vanished.
Huge whirlpools appeared one after another in the sky.
This time, the whirlpools were extraordinarily massive.
Lu Ye’s eyes brightened, and his figure vanished.
He rushed toward the Sea of Blood Cliff.
Almost all the geniuses, whether Human Clan or other clans, dashed toward the seventh layer space.
Because the powerful beings arriving this time were extremely formidable, even the distant foreign clans were on high alert.
Once the Human Clan’s strong ones appeared, other clans began to follow suit.
Powerful auras filled the air.
Refining Void Realm!
Refining Void Realm!
The strong ones entering this time, from any of the clans, each one could be pulled out as a Refining Void expert.
If someone hasn’t reached Refining Void Realm by a hundred years, they couldn’t be considered a genius.
Ye An was the first to meet them.
The members of the Demon Clan greeted Ye An with a slight bow. Though young, he was the son of the Heavenly Demon Emperor and a remarkable genius of the Demon Clan, worthy of respect.
“Greetings, Prince Ye.”
The leader of the Demon Clan wore pitch-black armor, his bull-like horns emanating a torrential aura, and his imposing figure was like an insurmountable mountain.
“Xi Mie, I have urgent news for you!”
Xi Mie nodded, “Prince Ye, please speak.”
“A peerless genius has emerged from the Human Clan, with the potential of an emperor. If not eliminated today, they may become a future threat.”
“I have already contacted the Demon Clan, Ghost Clan, Divine Clan, Buddha Sect, and Spirit Clan; we’re just waiting for you to arrive and join forces to kill this person!”
“Are you willing to hear me?” said Ye An.
Upon hearing this, Xi Mie’s eyes glinted with ominous energy.
“Is he really that strong? What realm is he currently at?”
“He should be in Refining Void!”
“Good, please lead the way, Prince Ye. I’ll take him down!”
“Not just you; all strong members of the Demon Clan must join this battle. We cannot leave this person with any chance of survival!”
Xi Mie nodded, “Understood!”
The same was happening with other foreign clans as well. Tiger Prince found the strongest member of the Demon Clan this time, named Hua Qianshi.
The Buddha Sect reached out to the senior monk Huijing.
The Ghost Clan found Yin Xiayi.
The Spirit Clan found Huan Wang.
The Divine Clan found Shen Jiang.
…
Bai Qiulan entered the Genius Ancient Battlefield.
“Master!”
Yue Hongling rushed over.
Upon seeing Yue Hongling unharmed, Bai Qiulan couldn’t help but sigh with relief.
“Where’s your Senior Brother?”
Bai Qiulan asked.
Yue Hongling’s eyes were getting redder by the moment.
“Master!”
Her voice was filled with a sobbing tone.
Bai Qiulan felt her heart clench. What happened?
Yue Hongling dove into Bai Qiulan’s embrace, shivering from the cold.
“Master!”
Yue Hongling looked at Bai Qiulan with red-rimmed eyes, “Why are you so cold? What happened to you?”
“It’s nothing; the Taiyin Divine Power hasn’t stabilized after my breakthrough. I’ll be fine after a while,” Bai Qiulan replied.
“What about you? Why do you look so sad?”
Yue Hongling couldn’t hold it in anymore, tears streaming down like beads.
“Master, I misunderstood Senior Brother; I misunderstood him!”
Bai Qiulan…
“Feng Wuxie was a trap! My Senior Brother stepped into that trap for my sake; he even lost his life for it!”
“I harmed him; Master, I’m sorry! I can never make up for my mistake; I’m doomed, Master, boo hoo…”
Yue Hongling cried heart-wrenchingly.
Crying miserably.
Bai Qiulan couldn’t help but close her eyes.
Another misunderstanding.
Why is it like this?
Everything they did somehow went wrong in such a short time.
Sun Ruowei was all ears.
She pretended to be indifferent, but she heard every word from Yue Hongling and examined it closely.
She recognized every word, but when put together, she just couldn’t understand.
Senior Brother refers to Lu Ye.
Who is Feng Wuxie?
Lu Ye lost his life?
Doesn’t everyone have just one life?
Could it be that Lu Ye is dead?
Oh my heavens, no way!
Wait, if Lu Ye were dead, why would there be a discussion of Yue Hongling asking for forgiveness?
So what is this! What’s going on! What’s this all about! Ah?
“Strange, why are all the clans moving toward the same position at this moment?” a young elder from the Grand Dao Sect, holding a device, wondered aloud.
