Realm of the Night God

Chapter 620: Luo Yao Arrives

Yang Haoran knew that even if he used all his strength, he couldn't escape from the young woman's grasp. However, whether he could escape or not was one thing, and whether he would try to escape was another.

Given his personality, even if he knew it was impossible to escape, he wouldn't give up. The most important thing at the moment was to confirm that after his internal power was converted, he could regain his strength.

Although the Talisman Spirit Power within him was not strong, and there was a huge gap compared to his Yin spirit power, activating the escape talisman only required a tiny bit of power.

The idea of escaping flashed through his mind, and Yang Haoran made up his mind in an instant. However, just as he was about to act, the spirit master who had been standing behind him had already left, and the next spirit master in line immediately took his place.

This guy was a ruthless character, and at this moment, his face was covered in fresh blood. However, he didn't seem to care, and with a calm expression, he pulled out the dagger from Yang Haoran's body and stabbed it down fiercely!

Yang Haoran endured the intense pain from the wound, ignoring the dagger and the opponent. With a determined heart, he was ready to convert his internal power and try to break free from the young woman's shackles.

However, just at this critical moment, a sudden and intense spatial fluctuation occurred above his head, and a space rift opened up.

The moment the space rift opened, Yang Haoran suddenly felt the sealed power within him reawaken. His first reaction was to activate the escape talisman in his hand, but this thought only existed in his mind for a second before he erased it!

In this short second, he quickly weighed the pros and cons and changed his decision.

He didn't activate the escape talisman, nor did he dodge immediately. Instead, he used his fastest speed to strike out, his five fingers forming a claw as he grabbed forward!As he struck out, the spirit master's dagger had already entered his body, but his action didn't stop. He gritted his teeth, enduring the pain, and his arm flashed forward, piercing through the opponent's chest and grasping their heart, which he then crushed.

Everything happened too suddenly, and by the time the spirit masters on the scene reacted, Yang Haoran had already crushed the spirit master's heart. He then shook his arm, and his Yin spirit power erupted, tearing the opponent's body apart, while he himself took a step back.

As he stepped back, the Waning Moon, which had been inserted into the ground, responded to his call and regained its vitality, transforming into a Black Dart that shot towards the Ink Glasses Man!

At this moment, the Ink Glasses Man didn't have time to react, as everything had happened too suddenly, and Yang Haoran's attack was too fast and ruthless, leaving him no chance to respond.

In this instant, the Ink Glasses Man's hair stood on end, and he felt an extreme sense of danger. Although his strength far surpassed Yang Haoran's, the current Yang Haoran gave him a sense of danger that exceeded even Boss Huo.

He knew he was finished, no matter what happened next. His physical body was likely to be beyond salvation!

However, the expected outcome didn't occur. Just as the Waning Moon was about to pierce his neck, it suddenly stopped in mid-air and then exploded with a loud bang.

Boss Huo, who had been lying on the ground, regained his strength at the same moment Yang Haoran's power awakened. The shackles on his body were broken, and he immediately stood up, controlling his soul weapon, the Petrification Eye, to launch an attack on all the spirit masters present.

His action was slower than Yang Haoran's by half a beat. When he activated the Petrification Eye to attack the spirit masters, Yang Haoran had not only taken down one spirit master but had also controlled the Waning Moon to attack the Ink Glasses Man.

The Waning Moon shattered, but didn't take the Ink Glasses Man's life. However, Boss Huo's petrification power suddenly caused all the spirit masters on the scene to rapidly petrify.

But soon, the petrification power on everyone's body was broken by a powerful force in a brutal manner, and...

This powerful force was still moving at an extremely fast speed, forcibly transferring them to a high platform.

In an instant, a loud explosion sounded from the sky, and a powerful force wanted to destroy Ink Glasses Man and other spirit masters. However, this force was intercepted by another powerful force before it could land, and the two forces collided, causing a massive explosion.

From Yang Haoran's internal power awakening to the two forces colliding in mid-air, everything happened in an extremely short period of time. The time was so short that Yang Haoran, who was retreating, hadn't even stabilized his body before the explosion occurred.

Yang Haoran stabilized his body in the midst of the explosive shockwave. He didn't bother with the dagger stuck in his body and instead focused his attention on the sky above.

Under his gaze, a figure slowly emerged from the space rift in the sky.

This person wore black clothes and appeared to be around 27 or 28 years old. However, his eyes constantly exuded a sense of age and weariness.

He was none other than Yang Haoran's superior, Luo Yao, one of the nine Guardians of the Jingling Continent!

If it were in the past, Yang Haoran would have felt a mix of emotions upon seeing Luo Yao in such a desperate situation. Luo Yao's appearance would have definitely broken the deadlock and brought him hope for survival.

However, after experiencing a near-death situation, Yang Haoran's mentality had undergone a subtle change. He had become more calm and composed, not just towards others but also towards himself, including his own life.

This calmness didn't mean he was indifferent to his own life; rather, he was brave enough to face his own mortality, which was something he hadn't had before.

Since he embarked on this path, he had developed an awareness of death. Although he still had internal fluctuations when facing death, this had changed now.

It was precisely because of this subtle change in mentality that he remained calm when seeing Luo Yao appear...

Earlier, his power had awakened because the newcomer had suddenly broken the seal on his body, releasing the power that was locked inside him.

He didn't immediately use an escape talisman to flee because he knew the newcomer was likely Luo Yao. As soon as the space rift appeared, he sensed the strong Yin spirit power emanating from the opponent's body.

Even if the newcomer wasn't Luo Yao, they were still from the Yin Division and were a friend, not a foe. Therefore, he didn't plan to act like a turtle retreating into its shell in front of this dignitary, as it wouldn't benefit him.

At that moment, he decisively changed his mind and displayed his ruthless side, taking a knife blow in exchange for instantly defeating a spirit master. He then attempted to take down Ink Glasses Man with a lightning-fast move, but the young woman ruined his plan.

Only Luo Yao, who had just arrived, or the young woman had the ability to shatter his soul weapon in an instant. Luo Yao wouldn't do such a thing, so the one who did it must have been the young woman.

The young woman not only shattered his soul weapon but also quickly transferred Ink Glasses Man and others to the high platform, blocking Luo Yao's attack. If not, Ink Glasses Man and others would have died under Boss Huo's Petrification Eye or Luo Yao's attack.

Luo Yao landed, and Yang Haoran and Boss Huo appeared on either side of him. Compared to Yang Haoran, Boss Huo's face was calm, but his eyes betrayed a hint of excitement. In contrast, Yang Haoran's face and eyes were as still as water.

At this moment, Luo Yao didn't bother with Yang Haoran and Boss Huo. His gaze fell on the young woman, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, and his expression unpleasant.

"Luo Yao, one of the nine Guardians of the Jingling Continent, it's truly an unexpected honor to see you tonight."

The young woman spoke first, her words seemingly praising Luo Yao, but her expression remained calm, with a hint of sarcasm...

Her tone even revealed a hint of mockery, as if she was truly surprised by Luo Yao's appearance and felt honored to see him, but was actually being ironic.

"It's been a long time since I've seen a great spirit master. I feel honored to see you tonight."

Luo Yao looked at the young woman, responding in a calm tone, his words also laced with irony. Apart from that, his tone revealed a cold, murderous intent.
