Chapter 1088: Heaven Crystal Appears Once More!

“Over here!”

“Notify the members! We’ve found the clan lady and Shi Feixuan!”

“Be prepared to set up the defense line!”

“Get the Hill Breaker Arrows ready.”

As the signal flare exploded, a group of Mu Clan members at the horizon who were prepared to spread out and search for Young Yu Yan quickly gathered together. They swiftly went to meet up with her, and they had their weapons drawn, ready for combat.

They had suddenly received a party mission from their clan when they were training at a high-grade training spot nearby. The level of the mission was even personally set by Silver Wolf as the highest-graded mission in the clan. Anyone who participated in the battle and contributed in it could obtain a lot of contribution points, and once they died, they might gain even higher contribution points or an Illusion Life and Death Pill by uploading a video of how they died.

Based on the information they received, the clan lady and Clan Master Happy were both being chased down by Evil King Shi Zhixuan, the leader of the evil cult.

This caused them to be on high alert, and they were not negligent toward their task. They cast aside everything in their hands to rush over. The opportunity of being able to show off their skills to their clan master or the sudden highest-grade group mission issued were both incredibly good opportunities for them.

Besides, this time, many of them were full of regret and frustration because they had not been able to join the war at Western Region. But now, if they could do a mission with their clan master and clan lady, this was also another chance that would only come to them once in a blue moon.

They made their horses gallop at full speed.

Two groups of people swiftly met on the government-made road.

The Mu Clan elites were able to immediately recognize that one of the women on the horse was the female protagonist of the wedding of the century—the clan lady of Mu Clan.

The other person was the successor of Kind Boathouse. It was Shi Feixuan, and she was so severely wounded and she was nearly unconscious now.

And Evil King was already less than 328 feet away from Young Yu Yan! The group could even sense Evil King’s cold killing intent and his might.

“Prepare for battle!”

The group quickly stopped on the government-made road and split up to form a path for Young Yu Yan to leave with Shi Feixuan. Then, dozens of arrows with all sorts of Hill Breaker Needles flew toward Evil King.

“Ants!”

When he faced the sudden and fierce attack, Evil King frowned before he flung his arm. Those dozens of hidden weapons and arrows looked as if they crashed into an invisible wall, and they shattered inch by inch.

Long-distance attacks of this level were naturally unable to make Evil King slow down.

“Hmph!” He snorted through his nose, and a mighty pressure descended from the sky. With an invisible palm force, he sent the group flying violently into the distance.

Bang! Bang!

The group were sent tumbling on the ground.

Right when they landed on the ground, they heard Evil King flying over their heads, and he did not stop for even a moment. He was so fast that they could not catch his movements.

“Damn it!”

“Hurry up and notify the other members! Long-distance attacks are useless! We have to think of other ways to stop him!”

When the group scrambled to their feet, Evil King Shi Zhixuan had already left into the distance.

*****

Young Yu Yan might be riding nonstop on the government-made road, but she was still paying attention to the situation behind her.

When she saw that her group of members had not even managed to slow down Evil King even by a little and he had even mowed down their defense line as easily as a hot knife cutting through butter, she frowned, and she could not help but have a bitter and grave look appear on her face.

As expected of an elite at the peak of Myth Realm!

The current Moksha Realm players had to face an incredibly great pressure when they faced him.

But fortunately, to quickly get through them, Evil King did not kill him, or else, if these members were all killed along the way, Young Yu Yan would become even gloomier and sadder.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Her Hoof Shadow continued galloping down the government-made road.

And Evil King continued chasing after her without even having his feet touch the ground.

The distance between them continued closing.

Evil King was not in a hurry to kill them. The repeated attacks and mad dash for miles had caused him to lose a portion of his qi, and he sensed a faint, threatening feeling from the woman in front of him. It came out of nowhere, but it might have been because this woman was just too calm.

“Let go of Shi Feixuan, and I will spare you!”

A mighty and loud voice rose behind Young Yu Yan and Shi Feixuan. It sounded like thunder.

Shi Feixuan said in anguish, “I will remember your kindness today. Let me go. We cannot escape—”

“That’s not necessarily true.” Young Yu Yan became stubborn at this moment.

Even though they were in a perilous situation, she still insisted on taking Shi Feixuan along. Her gaze was determined, and she had never relaxed even in the slightest.

Ten seconds later, Evil King was finally sure that the woman showed no intention of stopping. He snorted through his nose.

“A fool you are, refusing to listen to reason.”

He raised his hand and delivered a palm-generated wind.

Young Yu Yan might not have such great skills as Happy did, but they were a distance apart from each other, which was why she instantly noticed that Evil King’s target was not her, but her steed.

She grabbed Shi Feixuan’s thin waist, and like a bird, she jumped up from her horse. With the inertia from the horse, she increased her speed in charging forward, and in an instant, the distance between them widened by a large margin.

But the result of abandoning her steed meant that her Hoof Shadow was crushed with just one palm strike by Evil King!

Boom!

A pained and devastating neigh rose. The Hoof Shadow which had followed Young Yu Yan for a year was reduced to a bloody shower.

“Go!”

While Young Yu Yan was airborne and still held Shi Feixuan, she threw a black glare backward without even turning her head back.

The black glare was as fast as lightning.

Evil King was stunned, and during that time, the black glare had already arrived in front of him.

Right when he was prepared to dodge…

Bang!

The black glare exploded on its own in front of Evil King. It turned into a dense wave of fine, black glares, and it instantly locked down all the areas in which Evil King could dodge.

“Oh no!”

No matter how strong Evil King was, when he faced a hidden vessel which was like a demon vessel, he could not avoid or ignore it easily. He forcibly activated his flame body fortification to withstand all the damage from the demon vessel.

Countless fine black glares rushed into Evil King’s body fortification.

He could not help but freeze for a moment.

Evil King was finally forced to stop for a moment because of this valuable demon vessel which could only be used once.

But Young Yu Yan’s counterattack at the moment of death did not end just like this.

Once she threw the demon-vessel-grade hidden weapon from Tang Sect, a snow-white saber glare disappeared from her hands quietly.

Shi Feixuan saw all this, and she was stunned.

The pitiful Evil King had just been forced to stop for a moment because of the impact from the demon vessel, and his face was full of fury right now. He suddenly felt that uneasy fear become stronger in him.

He turned his body to the side.

Whoosh!

Little Li Flying Dagger ignored the flames outside Evil King’s body, and with a thud, it stabbed violently into Evil King’s shoulder.

Even though the force within his muscles increased at the moment the dagger entered his body, causing it to be unable to continue dealing damage to him, Evil King still flew into a complete rage because of this sudden injury.

“Die!”

He pulled out the dagger, and with a cold gaze, Evil King vanished from where he originally was.

By this point, Young Yu Yan had summoned another Hoof Shadow from another Horse Plate, and they were both riding on the horse again. Shi Feixuan’s eyes shone with worry on the horse.

“Even if I get down from the horse now, I don’t believe that Evil King is going to spare you.”

But Young Yuyan’s thoughts were no longer on Evil King or Shi Feixuan. She held a letter she had just received and stared ahead with a tense gaze.

Even though she only managed to create insignificant damage to Evil King, when she threw demon vessels at him back to back, she had still managed to produce some results.

Not only had she managed to stop Evil King for a few seconds and widened the distance between them, she also received a notification telling her that Shi Feixuan Affection toward her had increased to Trusted.

What excited Young Yu Yan even more was that Happy had already arrived ahead of her through a shortcut, and he was currently rushing toward her.

“It’s the clan lady and Shi Feixuan!”

“Stop Evil King!”

In less than half a minute, another two groups of people rushed over on the government-made road, and they were from Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect.

The group said nothing else and concentrated their attacks on Evil King.

What delighted Young Yu Yan even more was that even though more than twenty people were injured or died in these two groups, someone actually took the initiative to use their bodies to block Evil King a little.

Speaking of which, Young Yu Yan did not expect that the bald, plain looking, young Shaolin Temple disciple in the group would swing an Eyebrow-height Staff, which was not a high-end weapon, and tear apart the air in the air. He created an incredibly powerful suction force, and not only did he interrupted Evil King’s rhythm, many of the arrows and hidden weapons also landed on Evil King’s body.

The precious time they bought allowed Young Yu Yan to feel excited, as if she just escaped from being eaten by a tiger.

When Evil King slaughtered his way out and left behind bloody carnage in his anger, the distance between them had already widened by 328 feet.

Two minutes later, Happy finally showed up on the government-made road in the distance!

Whoosh!

He was as fast as a phantom, and his Dragon Saber was incredibly eye-catching as it shone with a mighty, domineering gold light. He quickly caused the Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect elites to cheer.

“It’s the clan master!”

“The clan master is here!”

Evil King’s reaction was completely different from the players.

At the moment Evil King saw Happy, he scowled, and his gaze on the two people on the horse became even colder. There was even a hint of urgency in his eyes.

Boom!

Without any sign, an astonishing presence suddenly rose from Evil King’s body.

Shi Feixuan’s expression changed, and she cried out in surprise. “Careful! Evil King has practiced an incomplete form of Dao Heart Demonic Seed—”

It was too late!

Even though Shi Feixuan recognized that Evil King used a martial art from Dao Heart Demonic Seed to forcibly increase his speed, at the moment Evil King’s eyes turned as red as a demon’s, a powerful mental pressure descended from the sky. The girls did not have much of a chance to react to the situation. The horse just neighed in terror, and its legs turned as weak as jelly. It collapsed.

When they lost their balance, the girls grunted and were flung off the horse.

Whoosh!

Evil King finally seized the chance to instantly close the distance between them.

Even though Young Yu Yan had injured him, a strong enemy was approaching, and it was important for Evil King to retrieve the stone plate. He arrived next to Shi Feixuan.

“This is mine!”

And he immediately extended his hand to grab Shi Feixuan.

At that moment, Happy might already be at a distance that was only 328 feet away, but he was not in time to save the girls. He could only watch Evil King reach out, but he could not stop him.

When she sensed Evil King’s presence closing in, Shi Feixuan could only smile in anguish. She laid on the ground with her limbs immobile and watched Evil King’s hand coming at her. In resignation, she closed her eyes and was prepared to wait for death.

However, just when Shi Feixuan had already accepted her fate and was prepared to accept her tragic demise, a sword whine that surged through the sky rose beside her.

Whine!

There was no sign when it appeared.

A powerful sword will that caused people’s hearts to tremble rose out of nowhere.

In an instant, it caused the wind and clouds to stir.

It was as if the dark sky was illuminated so brightly by the moon that it became as bright as day.

Even though Shi Feixuan had her eyes shut, she, along with the Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect members in the distance, could still sense the sword that released that endless power and aggressiveness from the bottom of their hearts. A glory and power that had been lying dormant for tens of thousands of years was instantly released!
