Chapter 87: Suddenly Enlightened

Master, is that you?

Disciple, I seem to have heard your voice.

Correct.

The voice transmitted to Lin Yang's ear was exactly Li Yilan's voice.

This left Lin Yang, who was already helpless against the opposing Zi Youying, stunned.

"Li Yatou, it's me." Lin Yang replied curiously via voice transmission.

Meanwhile, in another space beneath Lin Yang's feet, a blood sacrifice altar stood ominously.

Thick fresh blood trickled down the edges of the stone platform, torches flickered around, a bloody smell pierced the gloom, and deathly silence hung heavy.

This is the core area of the blood sacrifice.

At the triangular positions of the altar, three crystal coffins stood upright, each linked to the altar by iron chains that acted like a conveyor of some power, connecting the coffins and the altar with countless ties.

Inside the coffins were respectively trapped Li Yilan and the remains of her parents.

Until the day before, she had been plotting the Li family's revival, but the power condensed from purple petals reappeared, taking her and her parents' remains here.

After she was trapped inside the coffin, the senior within the Qing Jie analyzed that they should have been brought here by that power to become the activation point of the blood sacrifice.

However, the blood sacrifice had already begun, and her parents' remains were continuously absorbing the vital essence of all things, channeling it to the altar.

Yet she showed no reaction; not a trace of the vital essence could approach her.

This left her puzzled: why was this happening?

She asked the senior, but the senior couldn't answer right away.

Thus, in her confusion, Li Yilan joined forces with the senior inside the Qing Jie to prepare to stop the blood sacrifice.

Coincidentally, she seemed to hear Lin Yang's voice.

She then used a transmission jade slip to send a message to Lin Yang.

Unexpectedly, they actually managed to communicate.

"Li Yatou, how are you now? Any danger?"

Lin Yang continued the voice transmission.

"Master, I'm fine on my end."

Next.

Li Yilan told Lin Yang everything about her situation and the blood sacrifice.

After Lin Yang finished listening,

He couldn't help but be stunned.

"You mean, after the blood sacrifice started, you had no reaction at all?"

"Yes, Master, it's strange; not a trace of the vital essence entered my body," Li Yilan replied.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yang was completely dumbfounded.

According to Bai Hua Xianzi, activating the blood sacrifice requires three corpses with the closest blood relation to her as the foundation.

Now, the remains of Li Yatou's parents have reacted to the blood sacrifice.

Only Li Yatou herself showed no reaction to it.

This shows that.

Li Yatou has no blood relation to Bai Hua Xianzi.

But Li Yatou's parents do share blood ties with Bai Hua Xianzi.

Thus.

This shows that Li Yatou has no blood relation to her parents!!!!

This...

This news even left Lin Yang somewhat startled.

"Master, is something wrong with the blood sacrifice? Or perhaps the enemy has other plans? Furthermore, is my purpose not to receive the vital essence?"

Li Yilan was still guessing, completely unaware of the full story.

Lin Yang took a deep breath.

"Girl, don't worry about all that; this blood sacrifice concerns the lives of nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine people, and I intend to stop it," Lin Yang said.

"Master, if the senior possesses me here, I can unleash the power of a late-stage Great Sage; just tell me what to do and give the order," Li Yilan said.

In fact, she had already planned with the senior to use brute force to stop the blood sacrifice; it was just a coincidence that she got in touch with the master.

"You and I will join forces, using brute force to destroy the blood sacrifice site," Lin Yang said.

After all, Bai Hua Xianzi said that the best way to stop the blood sacrifice is to activate its three corpses, with one corpse having no blood relation to Bai Hua Xianzi.

Now, Li Yatou has no blood relation to either Bai Hua Xianzi or her parents, making this the breakthrough for a counteroffensive.

Perhaps even Zi Youying didn't anticipate this.

And this will become the key point of her defeat.

"Yes!"

Li Yilan readily agreed.

——————————

With a plan to break the enemy, Lin Yang's mouth also curled into a smile.

Seeing Lin Yang smile,

Zi Youying mistakenly thought Lin Yang had figured it out and was no longer offering blind resistance, so she also laughed along.

Seeing Zi Youying laugh,

But Lin Yang did not want to laugh.

He looked at Zi Youying; this guy is probably an idiot, right?

Death is upon him.

Still laughing?

Seeing Lin Yang not laugh, Zi Youying also put away her smile and said: "Young Master, after hearing my words, you suddenly understood many things, huh?"

"Right, there are so many talents in the world; why do you insist on loving only her?"

"If you're attracted to her beauty, Young Master, then I'm also a woman, I'm also very beautiful; we can totally join forces."

"Hahaha!"

Lin Yang burst out laughing.

"Luoluoluo..."

Zi Youying also followed with a chuckle: "Young Master, did you suddenly have an epiphany?"

Lin Yang's smile faded: "You're about to die."

Zi Youying's smile faded as she said: "Am I about to die?"

"Young Master, do you dare to kill me?"

She was certain that Lin Yang would absolutely not bear to act.

Because his disciple, and also nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine lives are in her hands; if he were to act ruthlessly, he wouldn't have stopped the Ancestral Dragon from acting just now.

"Are you doubting me, thinking I don't dare to kill you?" Lin Yang looked at Zi Youying.

Zi Youying smiled and said: "I can be certain, Young Master, you absolutely will not bear to kill me."

"Sorry."

"You're definitely wrong."

Immediately.

Lin Yang waved his hand and gave an order to Ancestor Xiao Hua.

"Xiao Hua, it's your turn to act; devour her until not even a bone remains."

"Yes, sir!"

Xiao Hua had long been famished; just now, after Lin Yang stopped it, its saliva had pooled on the ground in two patches.

Just waiting for this moment.

Roar!

Ancestor Xiao Hua's mouth corner slightly lifted, revealing sharp fangs, fixed on the myriad-thing aura on Zi Youying's body.

This scene.

This frightened Zi Youying greatly; she stared at Lin Yang and shouted: "Lin Yang, quickly stop it from acting rashly."

"You're just trying to gamble, betting that my myriad-thing aura isn't bound together with those ten thousand people, right?"

"I tell you, once you act, you'll regret it."

"Those ten thousand plus people will all die miserably because of you."

"Dead is dead." Lin Yang said calmly.

Upon saying that.

Again, it startled Zi Youying.

"Lin Yang, there's your disciple inside."

"And also your disciple's relatives and friends."

"I know, you're using the goading tactic, right?"

"You want to intimidate me with this, right?"

"Xiao Hua, attack!"

Lin Yang couldn't be bothered to keep arguing with her.

Roar!

Ancestor Xiao Hua lunged at Zi Youying unstoppably.

Zi Youying's pupils contracted; she knew this Ancestor Xiao Hua was utterly shameless, and she could not stop it from devouring the myriad-thing aura within her body.

"Die!"

Zi Youying thrust out a palm, trying to repel Ancestor Xiao Hua with it.

"But!"

All attacks are useless against Ancestor Xiao Hua, like hitting a sponge.

Ancestor Xiao Hua didn't even pause for a second before lunging again.

"How is that possible?" Zi Youying stared, dumbfounded, as her attack power had no effect on her.

"Is it immune to attack power?"

Zi Youying narrowed her eyes and unleashed another killing move.

"Thorny Illusion Prison!"
