Chapter 235: Another flare-up

Although Bailang Huang felt anger in his heart, he remained quite rational at this moment.

He paid no heed to the siege by these eight humans.

But the human who controlled mental power could devour his origin mental power.

He knew which weighed more.

He would first slay that despicable human ant, then deal with the eight of them.

Bailang Huang instantly unfolded the Demon Emperor's Domain, trapping the eight inside it; with a teleport he appeared above where Yuan Yao was, and he raised his Meteor Hammer and slammed it down toward her!

Boom—

A burst of sound came.

Before Qian Yunzhou and the others could react, they saw the white-clad youth actually appear beneath Bailang Huang's giant hammer.

He blocked Bailang Huang's attack head-on with a single sword.

Blood welled from the youth's mouth corner, staining his thin lips red.

Qian Yunzhou and the others wore expressions of disbelief.

How did Xie Zixu break open the Demon Emperor's Domain? And how did he catch up to Bailang Huang's speed?

Feng Xuanji's fingers gripping the sword hilt twitched slightly, her lips pressed tight.

Bailang Huang was also shocked.

"You still had a trick up your sleeve," Bailang Huang said with a half-smile. "Too bad… all of this is just in vain!"

Having said that, Bailang Huang slammed the giant hammer down with a 'Boom'; the sharp spikes on the Meteor Hammer pierced Xie Yan's long sword in his hand and then drove deep into his right shoulder.

The sudden intense pain made Xie Yan let out a muffled groan, his body trembling involuntarily.

At the same time, a gush of scarlet blood spurted from his wound, instantly staining a large area of his clothing red.

Yuan Yao suddenly opened her eyes, looked up, and saw Xie Yan alone bearing Bailang Huang's attack for her.

She felt an indescribable emotion.

She took a deep breath, instantly focused her mind, and frantically attacked Bailang Huang's mental power cluster.

At this moment, Bailang Huang felt a stabbing pain in his Sea of Consciousness, and his expression instantly turned grim.

Xie Yan took advantage of his distraction and swiftly flicked his long sword upward.

He knocked the Meteor Hammer aside.

Afterward, he quickly retreated to the side, covering his injured right shoulder with his left hand.

The intense pain made his complexion grow ever paler, and his right hand trembled uncontrollably.

Immediately afterward, a familiar pain surged from within his body.

His illness was about to flare up.

Reason warned him that he must leave quickly, otherwise the consequences would be unthinkable!

At this moment, Bailang Huang intended to attack Yuan Yao again.

Xie Yan moved, raised his sword again, and interrupted Bailang Huang's attack.

But Bailang Huang could not tolerate the disturbance; his expression instantly darkened, he flashed forward and appeared before Xie Yan, and with one hammer strike he smashed him to the ground!

The sharp spikes on the Meteor Hammer instantly pierced his body!

Xie Yan let out a painful muffled groan; his already bloodless face was now stained crimson, like a gorgeous flower blooming in the snow.

And his eyes, too, momentarily lost focus due to the intense pain.

"Junior martial brother—"

Feng Xuanji, trapped inside the Demon Emperor's Domain, had her eyes nearly bursting as she shouted urgently.

"Quick! Quickly break open the Demon Emperor's Domain!"

Several people, not bothering with anything else, joined forces to attack the Demon Emperor's Domain.

But the Demon Emperor's Domain was stronger than they had imagined!

Just as Bailang Huang was about to finish off Xie Yan——

A golden light shot toward him to attack.

Bailang Huang quickly raised a hand to block it.

With a 'Boom', the two forces collided.

After Bailang Huang cleared his vision to see what it was, a flash of delight crossed his scarlet pupils—this was an unborn Dragon Egg!

If he could consume it, his cultivation realm would surely increase greatly!

At this moment, he also noticed that Yuan Yao had actually emerged from the defensive barrier, heading toward Xie Yan's direction.

Bailang Huang had just raised his palm to strike her when he suddenly suffered a fierce assault from the golden egg.

This instantly drew his attention back to the golden egg.

Compared to killing a few humans, he now wanted that Dragon Egg more!

He immediately gathered demonic power, intending to suck the golden egg into his palm.

Hum—

The golden egg struggled wildly.

Golden Egg: 'Master master master, save me quickly!!!'

Yuan Yao helped Xie Yan up; his whole body nearly collapsed onto her, his breathing becoming disordered and weak.

Yuan Yao shoved the Eighth-grade Life-preserving Pill she had taken out earlier into his mouth.

Xie Yan was unwilling to accept her pill and wanted to spit it out.

Yuan Yao quickly covered his mouth with her hand to stop him from spitting it out.

"This is an Eighth-grade Life-preserving Pill! My master gave it to me! Now this pill has your saliva in it—do you still want to spit it out and give it back to me?" Yuan Yao said through gritted teeth.

Yuan Yao also felt a sharp pang.

She doesn't have many of these eighth-grade life-preserving pills on her.

If it weren't for seeing his help just then, she wouldn't want to give it to him!

Xie Yan swallowed it unwillingly.

He gazed deeply at her, his voice weak: "Take me away."

Yuan Yao met his gaze, her heart sinking.

She knew he was about to have another attack.

She gritted her teeth and directly hoisted Xie Yan into a horizontal carry.

She sprinted wildly in the direction opposite to Tianrui City.

At the same moment, just as the White Wolf Emperor was about to seize the golden egg, the golden egg was summoned into the beast-pet space.

The White Wolf Emperor watched the dragon egg about to be in his grasp disappear; his face instantly darkened, he stared at Yuan Yao's fleeing figure, letting out a series of cold laughs.

"Want to run?"

"Impossible!"

With a raise of his hand, the grasslands surged into a violent storm; the powerful suction made it impossible for Yuan Yao, who was holding Xie Yan, to move forward.

A gust of wind hit them with the force of moving mountains and overturning seas, flinging Yuan Yao and Xie Yan to the ground.

Xie Yan let out a pained groan.

Yuan Yao lay on the grass, a few meters away, and said seriously to Xie Yan: "You run."

"I will buy you time."

Having said that, she conjured a five-colored long sword in her hand.

Immediately she rose, following that powerful suction, and rushed swiftly toward the White Wolf Emperor.

Xie Yan struggled to his feet, watching that silhouette on the grasslands; a faint, inscrutable emotion flickered in his eyes, then he turned his head and quickly left the place.

He left extremely quickly.

Meanwhile, Yuan Yao gripped the Phantom Spirit Sword and went straight to meet the White Wolf Emperor.

She was ready to fight the White Wolf Emperor to the end!

The worst outcome would be her losing a life-saving talisman and also suffering severe injuries.

After seeing the Youngest Senior Brother and them battling the White Wolf Emperor, she realized one thing——

If there is no way to break the situation, then they will surely die.

Because the demon emperor is too powerful.

Powerful enough to make one feel despair.

Yuan Yao's expression turned grave as she raised her sword and slashed at the White Wolf Emperor.

"One sword, flames filling, transforms into a swimming dragon!"

Boom!

The fire dragon turned into a sword blade and shot forth, pressing toward the White Wolf Emperor.

The White Wolf Emperor neither dodged nor evaded.

The sword blade landed on the White Wolf Emperor's body, leaving not a trace.

The White Wolf Emperor laughed.

It was a mocking laugh.

Yuan Yao suddenly laughed as well, her tone teasing: "I bet you can't kill me."

"Can't kill you?" the White Wolf Emperor initially thought she was overestimating herself, but on second thought, her spiritual power was indeed strange.

Even she herself seemed somewhat strange.

Yuan Yao said arrogantly: "Exactly. Do you know who I am? If you can guess correctly, I will hand over that golden egg just now and even commit suicide before you. How about that?"

The White Wolf Emperor said disdainfully: "How could I possibly know you, a nameless human Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator?"

Yuan Yao clicked her tongue twice: "If I were a nobody, how could I possess a dragon egg? If I were a nobody, how could you be so wary of me, coming specially to kill me?"

She pointed at herself: "As for me, I know everything about you. Not just your affairs, but also those of your beloved."

"Do you want to hear it?"
