Chapter 1891: Make Use
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
After Huan and Black Shadow had settled those men, they showed their true form whilst in midair. They crossed their arms while looking at them in a leisurely way.
“You dare to step in here? Die!” Black Shadow was still quite imposing in front of these people. He was different from his usual foolish self.
“You are people from the Soul Region?!” Patriarch Peng looked at Huan and Black Shadow, his voice had a sliver of agitation.
“Soul Region? Is a small place like that worthy to produce people like us?” Black Shadow spat in laughter, but he also revealed that he was not someone from Soul Region.
Those from the Soul Region were experts in manipulating souls, so many would go to the Soul Region to look for people and attack those from the Ghost Clan. They would extract their souls or just control them directly. Also, many of them from the Ghost Clan also enjoyed using the condensed soul bodies from the Soul Region to boost their own strength, just like how Yu Du wanted to eat You Yue’s soul.
That was why those from Soul Region and Ghost Realm were like fire and water, they simply could not exist together.
They initially thought that Sima You Yue had colluded with those from the Soul Region and this would give them a reason to slap a charge on her. However, they didn’t think that these people were actually not from the Soul Region. Also, hearing what they said, it seemed like their backgrounds were not small either.
It was definitely true that their backgrounds were not small, otherwise, how could they have such strange arts?
“It seems like you really wish for me to have some relationship with those from the Soul Region!” Sima You Yue sighed, “However, what can I do? I didn’t go there after coming to the Ghost Realm.”
“No matter what you say, there’s no way you will be able to escape today! Those two on your side are powerful, but there’s only two of them. We have enough of us to stop you.”
Patriarch Peng spoke, and another hundred men attacked. However, the result was the same. They couldn’t even get past Black Shadow, much less touch Sima You Yue’s sleeve.
Sima You Yue was starting to admire these people. In order to kill her, they were willing to forgo even their lives.
Before the first group of them finished dying another group of them attacked. Although they were not able to harm Black Shadow and Huan, they were able to stall them for a moment. When those behind them saw this good opportunity, a few of tens of them attacked Sima You Yue.
The corner of Wu Lingyu’s mouth curled up into a smirk as heh released Sima You Yue. He came behind her and, like Black Shadow and the others, turned into a shroud of black fog and flew at those people. However, the difference between him and them was that he did not melt their bones. That was why, when he flew past them, he left their corpses behind.
She actually had such a powerful person with her still? Based on the way those two acted around each other, it seemed like they were rather intimate as well!
However, those people didn’t use too much time to digest this information. After seeing Wu Lingyu join in, even more joined the fray. Their thoughts were simple. If they could hold Wu Lingyu back, they would be able to kill her.
Sima You Yue saw those people who cared nothing for their bodies and looked again at the cowards at the back, then suddenly understood something. Within the ten thousands of people, there were a few who had death grudges with her! She wondered whether or not Ghost Concubine’s heart would hurt if she lost so many men.
An increasing number of people started attacking from the back. Perhaps they felt like Wu Lingyu was just one person and, thus, easier to break through.
Wu Lingyu was up in midair for less than one second before he disappeared. However, this time, he did not turn into a black fog, but into a river that flowed through the whole place.
“Damn it, it’s actually a river!” We’re not caught in an illusion right?” Some people cried out from the mountain top.
“”Those people can’t get out of the river! That’s… the River of Oblivion!” There were still a few knowledgeable people within them who could recognise this river.
“River of Oblivion? How could the waters of the River of Oblivion appear here? This person is from the Soul Clan!” Only members of the Soul Clan knew of the existence of the River of Oblivion. It didn’t matter how he was able to control this River of Oblivion, but he was definitely a member of the Soul Clan!
“These three people… their battle abilities are extremely powerful!” Seeing the three of them surround Sima You Yue, every one of them was astonished.
Sima You Yue saw that more and more people were coming down, and looked at the three guys who were protecting her in the centre of it all, and began to move the spirit energy inside her.
Suddenly, the winds changed, and the dark clouds started to dot the originally clear sky.
“They’re tribulation clouds!”
It was unknown who shouted this, but everyone here was clustered. Nobody else rushed down, but cast their gazes to the tribulation clouds overhead.
“Tr- tribulation clouds. How- How are they here at this time?”
Nobody here was undergoing tribulation, and no underworld beast was about to transform, so what would tribulation clouds be doing here?
After Wu Lingyu and the others settled the people on the battlefield, they immediately returned to her side.
“I’ve said before that I don’t really want to take your lives!” Sima You Yue raised her head and looked at those tribulation clouds, muttering, “As for what happened in Fair Eastern City, I won’t say who’s right and who’s wrong, just that the circumstances were different. Now, you guys are chasing after me and hunting me down. Is it to kill me for the sake of revenge or is it for the interests of those behind the scenes? You have to be well aware.”
In the beginning, she had really thought that those people had come to cause trouble for her because of what happened back at Fair Eastern City. However, she finally understood slowly later on. Were there really tens, hundreds and thousands of people willing to die for the sake of taking revenge for just a few people?
Today, seeing those who rushed to the front who wanted nothing else but to see her dead, she finally understood that this was all just a game of threats and promises. No matter whether they were convinced by threats or lured by bribery, this was all by choice.
“Since you have all chosen, then, I want you to understand that your choices come with risks and you need to pay the price.” She looked at them icily, “I believe that you guys don’t understand me that well, but the person behind this definitely knows me like the back of her hand. In that case, she should have told you that it’s a little strange when I advance in rank. Every time I advance in rank, there’s a lightning tribulation. I’m so glad that this time, there are many of you who will accompany me through this tribulation!”
“What?! You can actually evoke the lightning tribulation!”
“Why didn’t they tell us this? If we knew that…”
If they knew it, how would they have come to look for her like this? There was a chance that they would not have caused trouble for her.
“Back then, when I was in Fair Eastern City, I used this method. As long as you think it through properly, you will know it.” Sima You Yue huffed icily.
These people finally regretted in their hearts. If the person behind all of this had not deceived them, if not because they took her too lightly, how could they have fallen to this state?
Actually, if they had not been in such a rush for profit, they should have thought of it. The fact that she could kill so many ghost clansmen meant that she was not weak at all. It was just that they took it for granted and thought that she was only able to do that because she was in the human realm. Since the Ghost Concubine was their territory, even if she was powerful before, she should have been able to overwhelm them.
Sima You Yue looked up and saw that the tribulation clouds were getting bigger.. She nodded towards Wu Lingyu, who then opened his little realm and took Black Shadow and Huan into it.
