Chapter 1510: The Verge of Despair
Zhao Qianying’s face turned pale.
Before she could make any other move, billowing black air suddenly filled the hall, forming a thick light curtain.
A black light flashed on the light curtain, and a sinister-looking black-robed middle-aged man emerged and landed next to Huangfu Zhantian. The terrifying aura erupted from his body belonged to the Mystic Comprehending State.
It was not difficult to assume that he was the one who cast the black light curtain.
Swoosh swoosh!
The demons of Lin Family and Chu Family dispersed as if they were ready, surrounding Zhao Qianying.
The next moment, their bodies emitted bursts of golden light, and golden runes emerged. As these golden runes, these people who were originally at the Crystallization Period or the Real Pellet State rose to the Celestial State.
“Dragon Seal Talisman, Long Family!” Zhao Qianying’s face turned grim upon seeing this.
“Miss Huangfu, your eyesight is not bad.”
As a golden-robed young man spoke, his body grew half a head taller amidst a burst of crackling sounds. His face also became unusually handsome.
At the same time, his Celestial State aura was also rising gradually.
The veiled woman next to the golden-robed young man also took off her white veil, revealing a pretty face.
Zhao Qianying was stattered slightly. She naturally recognized this golden-robed young man. He was Long Family Master, Long Yi. She had also seen this woman in Demon Abyss. She was Long Yinchan who led the Long Family.
“Elder Zhantian, you colluded with outsiders to break into the palace. Are you trying to rebel?” Zhao Qianying said coldly to Huangfu Zhantian.
Huangfu Zhantian sneered and landed on the side of Zhao Qianying without answering.
At the same time, Long Yi and Long Yinchan landed on the other 2 sides of Zhao Qianying.
Zhao Qianying was surrounded by 3 Mystic Comprehending State in the middle. The black-robed middle-aged man did not move.
Zhao Qianying stood motionless. She fixed her gaze at the black-robed middle-aged man, saying,
“Elder Wu Kui, I thought I treated you well. My father also regarded you as a trustworthy person. I didn’t expect that you would betray me and my father.”
The black-robed middle-aged man frowned slightly, but he didn’t refute.
“Huangfu Qianying, stop your futile struggle! As the leader of the family and the emperor of a dynasty, you are unable to convince the family members internally, and your authority is ruined externally. As a result, the entire continent is now suffering from internal and external troubles. Families are rebelling one after another. How do you have the face to still sit on this throne?” Huangfu Zhantian asked loudly.
“So Elder Zhantian is trying to usurp the throne?” Zhao Qianying trembled slightly when faced with the question, but she quickly regained her composure.
Huangfu Zhantian looked up to the sky and laughed, saying loudly,
“I have no choice but to do this. It is for the honor of the family and the rise and fall of the dynasty! At this point, I don’t want to make it difficult for you. As long as you abdicate and hand over the Void Demonic Cauldron, for the sake of Huangfu Yong, I won’t do anything to you.”
“If you want to usurp the throne, just speak up. Why do you have to come up with such a hypocritical excuse?” Zhao Qianying said disdainfully.
Huangfu Zhantian raised his eyebrows and made an eye gesture to Long Yi without refuting.
Long Yi waved his hand and said,
“Get her!”
As soon as he commanded, the 20 Long Family Celestial State demons shouted and raised their hands with golden light together.
20 golden light threads flew out from the hands of these Celestial State demons. In a flash, they turned into a golden net with a lifelike golden dragon wandering on the surface.
Long Yi and the other 2 did not take action.
Zhao Qianying shouted and released the Void Demonic Cauldron above her.
The spirit patterns on the Void Demonic Cauldron shone. After the cauldron cover was opened, purple crystal filaments shot toward the falling giant net and pierced through it easily.
The golden dragon on the surface of the golden net also disappeared.
Long Yi and Long Yinchan were startled. The Dragon Bound Formation was cast simultaneously by 20 core members. Even if they were shrouded by the net, they would not be able to defend so easily.
The purple filaments continued to sweep rapidly in all directions as if they were going to pierce through the 20 Celestial State demons of the Long Family.
“Presumptuous!”
Long Yi shouted and took out a golden fan. Waves of golden demonic flames appeared on the surface. As he fanned, golden crescent wind blades were launched menacingly.
Long Yinchan took out a golden short ruler and waved it, launching golden fireballs forward.
An earth shattering sound!
As soon as the golden wind blades and fireballs came into contact with the purple filaments, bursts of dazzling golden and purple light burst out. The stalemate lasted for a while.
Their expressions turned gloomy.
As Mystic Comprehending State powerhouse, they attacked with law power simultaneously, but they were tied with Zhao Qianying who held the Void Demonic Cauldron. Their shock could be imagined.
At the same time, Huangfu Wukui still stood motionless, looking at Zhao Qianying with a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
Huangfu Zhantian stared at the giant purple cauldron with eagerness. A biting coldness was emitted on his body, but he also had no intention of taking action.
At this moment, a change occurred!
Many purple runes appeared on the Void Demonic Cauldron, then a space fissure opened up after a burst of purple light.
Whoosh whoosh!
More than 10 black figures came out from it and rushed toward the surrounding Long Family Celestial State demons.
These black figures were physique cultivators with no hair and bulging muscles. They were surrounded by black air. Their cultivation had reached the Celestial State.
They were the Nightmare Guards who were left behind by Huangfu Yong back then.
Speaking of which, in the face of the thousands of ancient demon corpses summoned by the Liu Family, this handful of Nightmare Guards had accomplished extraordinary feats.
Unfortunately, when the Liu Family army and the ancient demon corpses were finally eliminated, only a dozen Nightmare Guards were left out of the original hundred. Their overall strength was not as good as before.
But even so, Huangfu Yong still left a great support to Zhao Qianying!
“Elder Zhantian, Elder Wukui, what are you waiting for?” Long Yi said anxiously.
Those black figures were as fast as lightning, and the surrounding Long Family Celestial State demons were very close. It was too late for them to rescue.
“I only promised to maintain the array and will not take action.” Huangfu Wukui said in a stiff tone.
Huangfu Zhantian turned a deaf ear to Long Yi’s words. The coldness on his body became more and more pressing. At some point, a white bead appeared in his hand, but he still stood motionless as if waiting for something.
In an instant, those black figures were already entangled with the Long Family Celestial State demons.
Although Long Family Celestial State demons weren’t slow in their reaction, they were facing well-trained Nightmare Guards.
A series of extremely fast punches and kicks came one after another. Screams were heard from time to time.
In just a few seconds, half of the 20 Long Family Celestial State demons were injured and knocked back.
At this moment, Huangfu Zhantian suddenly disappeared.
The next moment, he appeared above the Void Demonic Cauldron.
He pressed his hand down with a ruthless expression. The white bead spun and grew into a 30 meters white vortex.
“Boom“, the vortex center shot a thick white light beam toward the Void Demonic Cauldron and Zhao Qianying below.
At this moment, a tall bald man emerged above the Void Demonic Cauldron. He was the Mystic Comprehending State commander of the Nightmare Guard.
He roared and attacked upward with both hands.
Countless black fist shadows that seemed to be as solid as a rock were launched toward the white light beam.
Huangfu Zhantian chanted silently.
Countless white light blades that contained law power rolled down from the white light pillar, crushing the indestructible black fist shadows into pieces.
Then the white light beam went straight to the Nightmare Guard commander below without stopping.
As soon as the Nightmare Guard commander contacted the white light beam, he was sent flying into the ground from the air, creating a big crater.
Immediately afterward, the white light beam enveloped the entire Void Demonic Cauldron and continued to fall toward Zhao Qianying below.
Before this white light beam hit, Zhao Qianying felt her spiritual power stagnated.
Although the surrounding Nightmare Guards inflicted heavy casualties on the Long Family Celestial State demons, they couldn’t help in time. Even if they managed to come over, they might not help much.
She finally showed a hint of despair, smiled, and closed her eyes.
At this critical moment, countless black runes suddenly appeared around her and instantly formed a black eggshell-like light curtain.
The white light beam hit the black light curtain, emitting loud rumbles, but the black light curtain remained motionless without even the slightest ripple.
Huangfu Zhantian was startled. The other 3 Mystic Comprehending State were astounded too.
Immediately afterward, a figure wrapped in green light slowly emerged and stood next to Zhao Qianying.
TL: He made it in time!
