Chapter 2428: How Could Someone Be This Unlucky?

~7 min read 1,250 words

The Heavenly Pride disciple said fiercely, and while speaking, a flash of undisguised contempt flickered in his eyes.

This trash is truly unlucky; thinking back to when he first stepped onto White Jade Avenue until now, all those Heavenly Thunder bolts he blocked for him, this Heavenly Pride disciple feels indignant.

Faced with that threatening gaze and words, Tie Dan, although unwilling, obviously also dared not stay.

The Heavenly Pride disciple's gaze clearly tells Tie Dan that he really dares to kill.

Based on his strength, he cannot block the current Heavenly Thunder; it's certain death, but if he doesn't leave, then he will die now.

Finally, Tie Dan still chose to leave; at least he can stay alive now.

Turning around, preparing to walk to the rear of the team, seeing this, everyone present tacitly made way.

Their eyes full of contempt, as if Tie Dan were some plague god.

Faced with everyone's contemptuous gaze, Tie Dan lowered his head, said nothing, and stepped forward preparing to leave.

However, at this moment, Ye Zhangqing's voice slowly came.

"Come here."

Huh???

Upon hearing this, Tie Dan jerked his head up, looked toward the voice, and saw the speaker was Ye Zhangqing, and he was completely stunned.

He could hardly believe that Ye Zhangqing was speaking to him.

He pointed at himself, Tie Dan said with a strange expression.

"Ye Shī xiōng, are you speaking to me?"

"Come over."

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhangqing answered affirmatively.

Although he was full of doubt for a moment, Tie Dan dared not disobey Ye Zhangqing's words; he could only follow orders and stand beside Ye Zhangqing, his whole body appearing very nervous.

Other Heavenly Pride disciples were also completely baffled at first.

Right now everyone knows that Tie Dan is truly a plague god; that Heavenly Thunder is clearly aimed at him.

Now whoever stands with him will be affected by the Heavenly Thunder; they can't dodge in time— isn't Ye Zhangqing just asking for trouble?

But soon someone seemed to think of something, a flash of realization appearing in their eyes.

Tie Dan is now the substitute of the Fate-Changing Tablet; as long as he lives, An Sheng Xin lives in the Extreme Bliss Palace.

If he dies, the Fate-Changing Tablet will shatter, and An Sheng Xin's life tablet will likewise shatter.

Ye Zhangqing obviously does not want the Extreme Bliss Palace to know that An Sheng Xin has died, so protecting Tie Dan is normal.

Once they understood this, they no longer found it strange.

As for Ye Zhangqing, he didn't even bother to explain.

Bringing Tie Dan along, they continued on the road.

The subsequent situation was no different from what everyone imagined; the Heavenly Thunder kept striking down.

Each time it headed straight for Tie Dan, Ye Zhangqing naturally got caught up in it.

After proceeding some distance, nobody knew how long White Jade Avenue was, but after experiencing another dozen or so Heavenly Thunder bolts, without exception they all pointed straight at Tie Dan.

And their power kept growing stronger.

Even the Heavenly Thunder that Ye Zhangqing just shattered already had the power of an Immortal King Realm.

Faced with such power of Heavenly Thunder, the Heavenly Pride disciples present dare not say they could block it completely on their own; if they faced it, they'd likely need to join forces to ensure absolute safety.

Only Tie Dan, with Emperor Sovereign Realm cultivation, could say this; without Ye Zhangqing's protection, he would have long been dead, not even leaving scraps.

All along following beside Ye Zhangqing, Tie Dan felt both fortunate and extremely tense.

Ye Zhangqing indeed gave him a full sense of security; after all, among the many young Heavenly Pride present, Ye Zhangqing absolutely stood out.

Having slain An Sheng Xin, who on site could match Ye Zhangqing?

It can be said that Ye Zhangqing's protection was something Tie Dan never imagined.

But, being beside such a great figure, Tie Dan couldn't avoid being extremely tense.

This is an unreasonable, uncontrollable tension, like the bloodline suppression of the beast clan.

Another Heavenly Thunder fell, again heading straight for Tie Dan; Ye Zhangqing's expression remained calm, and before the thunder reached them, he pointed a finger and shattered it.

All along the way, for everyone else it was actually extremely easy.

Anyway, the Heavenly Thunder was always aimed at Tie Dan, basically ignoring them.

Now with Ye Zhangqing protecting them, everyone just needs to follow far behind; it can almost be said there is no danger at all.

After walking another stretch, at this point, far off, it seemed they could already see the end of White Jade Avenue.

The end was already in sight, also causing the young Heavenly Pride to unconsciously let out a sigh of relief.

At last they passed through without any mishap.

Actually, along this route, it weren't for Ye Zhangqing's intervention, they would still find it very difficult to block those Heavenly Thunder.

Especially in the latter half, the power of the Heavenly Thunder had already reached Immortal Emperor Realm level.

With such power of Heavenly Thunder, if they didn't join forces, the Heavenly Pride disciples could not possibly block it.

But with Ye Zhangqing, they could say there was basically no danger.

Although Immortal Emperor Realm Heavenly Thunder is terrifying, in Ye Zhangqing's hands it poses no threat; he can easily shatter it.

So, everyone can basically say they just tagged along the whole way.

And this is all thanks to Tie Dan, after all Ye Zhangqing only wanted to protect Tie Dan; the life or death of others meant nothing to him.

Tie Dan bore all the dangers for them.

Just as they were about to successfully pass the checkpoint, however, as the distance to the end grew closer, the final Heavenly Thunder struck down from the sky.

And this Heavenly Thunder had indeed reached Immortal Sovereign Realm level.

Immortal Sovereign Realm, ah, without the Nine Heavens Precious Tree, probably even Ye Zhangqing couldn't block it.

It can be said that this White Jade Avenue is indeed not that easy to walk; even someone like Ye Zhangqing with such Yāoniè talent has the possibility of falling and suffering grave injury.

And this Heavenly Thunder, as expected, naturally came straight for Tie Dan again.

Ye Zhangqing, standing beside Tie Dan, was undoubtedly enveloped by it.

This time, even Ye Zhangqing couldn't help but utter a complaint.

"How can someone be as unlucky as you?"

After traversing this White Jade Avenue, not a single bolt of Heavenly Thunder turned aside to attack anyone else.

They all came straight for Tie Dan, as if they had a mortal grudge against him.

Faced with Ye Zhangqing's words, Tie Dan shrank his neck, dared not retort, and he didn't want to either.

Faced with Heavenly Thunder of the Immortal Venerable level, Ye Zhangqing also became somewhat more serious.

He brandished a kitchen knife, Línglì surged, he slashed out, and the golden blade fiercely collided with the Heavenly Thunder.

Under the golden blade, the Heavenly Thunder seemed to let out an unwilling roar, desperately holding on for a few breaths, but in the end it still reluctantly dissipated.

And with this final bolt of Heavenly Thunder shattered, everyone finally managed to pass through this White Jade Avenue, stepping into the light gate at its end.

The light gate spun, unknown where it would take everyone; they could not resist, only able to go with the flow.
