Chapter 518 - 515: The Winds Rise and Clouds Swirl (Part 7)

Seeing Liu Yifei so certain, Shangguan Yunyue's confidence wavered slightly. Could it be true that the Human Emperor had been rescued?

"I must go and see for myself at the Central Grand Hall." Shangguan Yunyue soared into the air, flying towards the direction of the Central Grand Hall.

"Everyone, put in more effort! Let's wipe out Piaomiao Palace in one fell swoop!!!" Liu Yifei brandished his broadsword and roared furiously. Like a god of slaughter, wherever he passed, corpses were strewn everywhere, and blood flowed like rivers. "Hahaha! Thrilling! Today is truly exhilarating!!!" His long hair whipped about as if he were insane, the epitome of a killing maniac.

"Liu Yifei! I've come to meet you!" Nangong Qi flew in from afar, wielding a longsword, and thrust it towards Liu Yifei's chest with majestic Sword Qi sweeping across.

"Bring it on!" Liu Yifei raised his broadsword and chopped down heavily.

"Clang clang clang…"

The longsword and the broadsword collided, sparking Mars and producing a piercing screech.

"Whoosh!"

Nangong Qi was sent flying by a tremendous force, tumbling several times in the air before stabilizing his figure.

But Liu Yifei stood firm in his original spot, not moving an inch. One move had already shown the disparity; Liu Yifei still had the upper hand.

"Kid, you're not good enough," Liu Yifei said disdainfully. "You better find some more help."

"To hell with that! I will slaughter you today!" Nangong Qi stomped heavily, and spiraling, he flew out again with both hands grasping the sword hilt, slashing towards Liu Yifei. This sword gathered all of Nangong Qi's strength, unleashing an explosion of Sword Qi, ripping through the void, intimidating in its momentum, and terrifying in power.

"You're overestimating your abilities," retorted Liu Yifei as he leapt into the air, gripping the broadsword with one hand. He drew a semicircle in the void and then quickly struck down, cleaving the air with the thick back of the blade, emitting a piercing screech.

"Boom!!!"

The longsword and the broadsword collided again, erupting with a deafening noise! The surrounding air crackled nonstop, with wild winds wreaking havoc and currents moving violently. Dark clouds loomed, and thunder boomed, as if the very heavens and earth were alarmed by their battle.

Just like before, Nangong Qi was sent flying, tumbling several times in the air before landing on the ground, his face slightly pale and sweat forming on his forehead.

Liu Yifei sneered, "You are far too inferior. Go back and train for a few more centuries, then come out and fight me."

Gasping deeply, Nangong Qi raised his head and let out a long howl, "Some people, come and help me deal with this old bastard!" Knowing he couldn't defeat Liu Yifei on his own, Nangong Qi unhesitatingly called for backup.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Several figures flew in from a distance, each exuding a terrifying presence.

"Think being many makes you impressive? I can still knock each and every one of you down!" Liu Yifei charged forward holding his broadsword, a surging warlike spirit rising slowly within him.

…

Elsewhere.

Gao Fei looked around in confusion. What's going on? Why is this happening? As soon as he entered Piaomiao Palace, the Li Fire hidden within him started to become restless, and if it hadn't been forcefully suppressed by Gao Fei, it probably would have burst out already.

"The Li Fire suddenly becoming restless definitely has a reason," the voice of Xuan Jizi echoed in his mind.

"No kidding! Of course there's a reason, but the key question is... What is it?" replied Gao Fei irritably.

"Li Fire was very calm outside Piaomiao Palace. Its restlessness only began after entering. What does this indicate?"

"It suggests that the cause for Li Fire's agitation is related to Piaomiao Palace."

"I have thought of a possibility."

"Speak quickly."

"Something in Piaomiao Palace has irritated the Li Fire, causing it to become violent," Xuan Jizi said slowly.

Gao Fei blinked, "What could it be?"

"That's for you to investigate," Xuan Jizi replied. "Anything that can irritate the Li Fire... it's definitely not a common object." He paused, "Go take a look, maybe you will find some opportunities. Piaomiao Palace is known as the number one Sect in the Human Territory, they must possess many valuable items."

Gao Fei nodded, "I should take a look... but the key question is, Piaomiao Palace is so large, where do I start looking for the thing that irritated the Li Fire?"

"You're usually quite smart, how come you've become so dumb now," Xuan Jizi said. "First, pick a direction, if the Li Fire becomes more violent, it means you are going the right way; otherwise, if the Li Fire is calm, it means you are going the wrong way."

"Right, how did I not think of this, Xuan Jizi, you're the smart one," Gao Fei exclaimed in admiration. "With you guiding me by my side, you save me a lot of effort."

"Stop the nonsense and go find the object," Xuan Jizi urged. "After the great battle ends, you won't have the chance."

"I'm off now." Gao Fei strode forward, sensing the Li Fire's reaction as he walked. If the reaction was intense, he kept going forward; if the reaction was mild, Gao Fei stopped and tried a different direction.

Today was a lucky day, otherwise when would Gao Fei have had the privilege to wander around Piaomiao Palace like this?

...

Blossoms bloom in clusters.

Each shows its own beauty.

Now, let's talk about Shangguan Yunyue.

When she arrived at the Central Grand Hall and saw the Human Emperor and Ximen Lie trapped in the Earth Core Flame, her heart, which had been in suspense, immediately eased upon realizing that the rumors were false; the Human Emperor and Ximen Lie had not escaped.

"Why is it so noisy outside?" Human Emperor Dugu Jingtian spoke with a smile that wasn't quite a smile. "Has the official army come to rescue me?"

"Indeed." Shangguan Yunyue nodded. "The official army has arrived, and there are many of them. Your loyal lackey Liu Yifei is also here, acting all high and mighty."

"Yifei is here?" Dugu Jingtian laughed heartily. "Shangguan Yunyue, you better release me and the Immortal, out of the consideration for our past, I might still spare your life."

"You think just because the official army has come, I'll be scared and let you go?" Shangguan Yunyue sneered. "Don't dream! If you really push me into a corner, I'll take us all down together!"

"You crazy woman..."

"I'm asking you one last time: Will you hand over the soul or not?"

"No!"

"Fine, then die!"

"What are you doing... Have you lost your mind! If we die, you and Piaomiao Palace will follow us to the grave!" Dugu Jingtian shouted in shock and anger.

With a grim expression, Shangguan Yunyue made bizarre hand seals and muttered under her breath. The Earth Core Flame burned fiercer and began to shrink the circle, the terrifying flames roasted Dugu Jingtian and Ximen Lie, eliciting agonized screams from them.

"I'll kill you first, then go fight the official army. With you as my funeral offering, even if I die, I won't have any regrets!" Shangguan Yunyue stated word by word.

"Crazy woman! You crazy woman!"

"I swear, I'll kill you!!!"

Dugu Jingtian and Ximen Lie screamed and cursed at the top of their lungs.
