Chapter 98

While Yatong regarded Dong Zongying with a certain respect, he wasnt too worried about her. There were more Holy realm experts on his side so as strong as she may be, she was only one person. She alone wont be able to turn the tide of this battle.

The real problem is still that old man

Yatong narrowed his eyes as his gaze turned to the Great Ancestor. The presence of that frail figure was emanating tremendous pressure.

A bitter memory emerged from within his mind and he recalled the beating he had taken three hundred years ago. Just the thought of it was enough to make him furious, but at the same time, a little helpless.

At this moment, Dong Zongyings aura reached its peak and a powerful sword aura emerged from her delicate body.

The disciples of the mountain, along with the Graha who were fighting each felt the oppression in the air. They stopped their battle and turned to look at Dong Zongying in awe.

The second they turned their head, they only saw a flash before seeing a devastating green sword beam heading toward them, or more accurately, toward the army of Grahas who was standing on the floating platform.

The sword beam howled as it sliced through the layers of the atmosphere. It flew at lightning speed and tiny cracks slowly appeared in space before quickly regenerating.

Yatong saw the destructive nature of this sword strike and squinted.

Yet, he remained still and didnt take any action. Instead, a man who was standing behind him stepped forward and arrogantly snorted.

Well trouble you, Bohai, Yatong said quietly.

The man named Bohai slightly nodded.

His aura instantly soared to the peak of the Holy realm and without warning, a violent pulse burst from his body.

An ear-screeching wail rang out and slammed into the sword beam.

Followed by two loud bangs, a strong gale formed, pushing apart both forces who were fighting.

After the dust settled, Yatongs angry face could be seen. He turned his head halfway only to see that some of his people had actually died in that exchange. It didnt only include Grahas who were in the Life Destruction realm, but there were even two who were in the Holy realm. On the contrary, the people from the Arcane Mountain were all fine!

Yatong frowned.

Bastards What the hell is wrong with them? Theyve been this way ever since they returned from the formatic. Whats the point in bringing them if theyre just going to stand about and do nothing? Hmph! What exactly arent they telling me?

Surprisingly, it appears the two brothers Yahui and Yazhu had been quiet regarding the events inside the formatic near Solitude City. One could only wonder what happened to them to make them so tight-lipped and traumatized.

The older of the two, Yazhu, finally snapped out of his daze when he noticed the glare from his father.

Yatong had thought his son would hurry to join Bohai and the others but instead, he did something that flared his anger.

Fa- father, we need to leave, this place isnt safe. If- if he- If that person arrives itll be the end of all of us, Yazhu timidly stuttered.

Yahui also joined in at this moment, Thats- thats right. Father, you need to retreat our forces immediately or-

Before Yahui could finish his words, Yatong furiously slapped him.

You bastards! This is already the second time you told me this. Once before we set out and now again. Do the two of you have any idea what youre saying? Do you have any idea what the Autarch would do to us if we were to flee?

Yazhu was unfazed and replied, Well at most be sent to the Paralix, if that is the case then we could still fight for merit to earn our freedom but if we stay here then that person

Enough! Yatong roared.

Losing his composure, Yatong revealed his immense cultivation and pushed the two brothers back.

After a short moment, Yatong honed in his anger before slowly and quietly asking, Just who is this person that you keep mentioning?

We- we

Yazhu and Yahui stammered. An image of a man dressed in black maniacally chuckling appeared in their mind and the only thing they could recall was the sounds of their own haunting screams.

They shuddered before dropping down to their knees, holding their heads, and deliriously cried, We dont know! We dont know! Please! We need to leave, now!!
