Chapter 938: Too Sly!

The young man had a slender build, his face as jade-like as a crown.

His deep eyes gazed at Kong Yu and the others, a faint arc curling at the corners of his thin lips.

In his hand, he was gripping a Nascent Soul that wore a terrified expression.

The sudden turn of events startled Kong Yu and the others, causing them to instinctively retreat and put some distance between them.

When they steadied themselves and saw the young man.

Their expressions immediately turned grave, "Who are you!"

Facing the gazes of the group, the handsome young man remained composed and chuckled, "You geniuses from Outside the Realm have entered the Outer Realm Battlefield this time, isn't it precisely to destroy Wenxian City?"

"Since that is the case, does it matter who Ye is?"

A gentle smile hung on the handsome young man's face, his tone as if he were catching up with an old friend of many years.

However, upon hearing the handsome young man's words, the expressions of Kong Yu and the others changed in unison.

Although the other party had not explicitly responded, judging by the information revealed in his words.

This person's identity was already self-evident.

This person was a Cultivator of Wenxian City!

Behind Kong Yu.

Eight Eighth-Order Will Stage Cultivators exchanged glances, then simultaneously charged toward the handsome young man.

"Oh my, in such a rush to go to your deaths?"

The handsome young man chuckled and waved his palm.

A vast expanse of deep blue flames surged forth.

The scorching flames, containing an aura of destruction, instantly engulfed all eight of them.

Before the group could even let out a scream, their physical bodies were directly reduced to ashes.

The handsome young man waved his palm again, and the scorching flames that filled the sky vanished just in time.

The Nascent Souls of the eight were thus preserved.

Before the eight could even catch their breath.

The handsome young man suddenly reached out and grabbed.

The eight Nascent Souls were all bound, taken by an invisible force to stand before him.

Then, the handsome young man used a practiced technique to severely injure, seal, and pack away the eight Nascent Souls.

The entire set of movements was done in one smooth motion.

Afterward, the young man looked at Kong Yu.

At this moment, Kong Yu was already shocked by the young man's powerful methods.

The instant the young man looked at her, she was jolted awake.

She turned to flee.

"Fairy, stay a while~"

The handsome young man chuckled, took a step, and instantly arrived behind Kong Yu.

He reached forward and grabbed.

Kong Yu, as if caught by an invisible giant hand, stopped dead in mid-air.

No matter how she unleashed her power, she could not break free in the slightest.

The handsome young man hooked his finger.

Kong Yu, unable to resist, drifted backward.

Immediately after, her waist tightened, and an arm was already wrapped around her slender waist, which was barely a handful.

"You shameless scoundrel! Let me go!"

Kong Yu's expression changed drastically, her silver teeth clenched, and she unleashed her power desperately.

But the restraints on her body did not loosen in the slightest.

"Tsk tsk, Ye only wants to talk about life with the Fairy, why must the Fairy be so agitated?"

"Ye likes obedient Fairies the most; if the Fairy is not obedient and Ye accidentally hurts the Fairy, that would be bad."

The handsome young man used his other hand to pinch Kong Yu's delicate chin, leaned his face toward hers, and said with a beaming smile.

A look of humiliation appeared on Kong Yu's face.

Whoosh!

Just then, a sound of something piercing the air came, and the temperature between heaven and earth dropped abruptly.

The handsome young man frowned, flashed his figure, and disappeared, taking Kong Yu with him.

The next moment.

A sheet of Cold Mist shrouded the space where the handsome young man had previously been.

Several hundred feet away, the handsome young man and Kong Yu flashed into view.

He held Kong Yu with one arm while looking toward an empty patch of ground.

At the same time, a figure flashed out from that empty ground.

"Brother Xuan Che."

Seeing the person who arrived, a glimmer of light flashed in Kong Yu's eyes.

Xuan Che nodded to Kong Yu upon hearing this.

He then looked at the handsome young man, his gaze lingering for a moment on the arm wrapped around Kong Yu's waist, and said with a gloomy expression, "Let her go!"

The handsome young man smiled, "Daoist Friend wants to save someone? Why not try making a move."

"You're courting death!"

Xuan Che let out a cold snort and pointed a finger.

An ice sword condensed from cold ice manifested and thrust straight toward the handsome youth.

The handsome youth raised an eyebrow and flicked his finger.

A wisp of deep blue flame flew out.

The flame and the ice sword collided and vanished simultaneously.

"Spirit Flame!"

"Artistic Conception of Ice!"

The two looked at each other, both revealing expressions of surprise.

Immediately after, Xuan Che snapped back to his senses, his Artistic Conception of Ice erupted, and he attacked the handsome youth once more.

The handsome youth wrapped one hand around Xuan Che's waist, while the fingers of his other hand tapped nimbly.

Every time he pointed, a wisp of deep blue flame flew out, continuously neutralizing Xuan Che's attacks.

Between heaven and earth, scorching heat and bitter cold intertwined.

Roaring sounds rang out incessantly.

Not long after.

A sound of something breaking through the air suddenly came from afar, and a figure vaguely appeared.

Xuan Che looked back, and when he saw the person arriving, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.

"Daoist Friend Cao, come quickly and help me kill this person."

"I, Xuan, will surely reward you handsomely afterward!"

After fleeing for over a thousand miles in one breath, Cao Tian let out a long sigh of relief upon seeing that Lu Xiu had not pursued him.

Immediately afterward, he sensed the fluctuations of a battle here.

When he saw the two sides fighting, he couldn't help but freeze.

Xuan Che~

And...

Ye Lingyun?

Hadn't the other party already been forced by him into a desperate trap within the Flame World?

He actually didn't die!

And...

His strength seemed much greater than before; he was actually evenly matched with Xuan Che.

It seemed that not only did that desperate trap fail to claim him, but it had actually allowed him to obtain a significant opportunity amidst the danger!

Following that, his attention fell upon the deep blue flame that Ye Lingyun was wielding.

Wasn't this the ownerless Spirit Flame from the underground Array outside Wenxian City back then?

How could it be in Ye Lingyun's hands?

Could it be...

A thought suddenly appeared in his mind...

Could it be that this Ye Lingyun had already escaped long ago?

That Transmission Array, and that defensive Formation with the Spirit Flame as its core, were all set up by Ye Lingyun to lure them into a trap?

Thinking of this.

His expression sank instantly.

A feeling of humiliation, as if his intelligence had been crushed, welled up in his heart.

This bastard...

Is too devious!
