Chapter 1733 Helpless Situation

"How are you, Grandma?" Murong Xue asked worriedly as she saw Murong Mengyi's pale face.

"I'm fine for now." Murong Mengyi replied truthfully. She took a few healing pills and continued speaking. "The enemy is beyond my expectations. They are nearly the same level as the Primordial God Tribe's people. If this continues, our Divine Realm will soon have a new ruler."

Murong Xue's expression became solemn upon hearing this. "Would the Heavenly Desolate God Emperor allow this?"

Murong Mengyi looked at her granddaughter and asked. "You have been studying with me for a period of time now. How do you think of him?"

"He doesn't appear to be a domineering person." Murong Xue expressed her thoughts. "No one in the Divine Realm can oppose him, yet he has never abused his power. From this point, he's either generous or doesn't care about anything."

It was because Murong Xu had never met Ren Yuan personally that her judgment of him was mostly based on the information she had learned in the past decade.n((OVelb1n

"However, based on his past record, it has been proven many times that he is a cunning and extremely patient person. If my guess is correct, he should be waiting for something to appear. Perhaps it's my junior brother." Murong Xue stated further.

"Not bad." Murong Mengyi nodded with satisfaction. "You cannot underestimate him no matter what. He is the kind of person who patiently waits for an opportunity to arise and seizes it at the right moment."

"The current situation in the Divine Realm is his own creation. He knew the time had come when the crown appeared in the sky that day. Therefore, he opened the border and allowed those Devil God Emperors to come over and cause trouble here."

She paused for a moment and spoke in a deep voice. "His goal is clearly to put pressure on Yun Lintian and those around him. You can see that anyone who stands on Yun Lintian's side is now being attacked."

"What should we do next?" Murong Xue asked worriedly.

"We have no choice. What we can do right now is to buy as much time as possible for Yun Lintian." Murong Mengyi said solemnly.

In the past decade, she had spent all her time on recovery for this purpose. Fortunately, the enemy who came to her place today was not bloodthirsty. Otherwise, she could potentially lose the battle.

Murong Xue had a heavy expression. She was utterly useless in the battle among god emperors. It was the same situation back in the Azure World all over again. She couldn't do anything to help her junior brother.

At this moment, Murong Mengyi's transmission jade lit up. When she picked it up, Hong Hualian's voice immediately resounded from the other side.

"How is the situation on your end?" Hong Hualian asked.

"A temporary peace." Murong Mengyi replied. "What about you?"

"Not good." Hong Hualian said and then coughed.

Murong Mengyi's expression changed slightly as she asked. "How are you?"

"I won't last long... I have already sent my people to the Moon God Realm." Hong Hualian replied truthfully. She managed to force the enemy to retreat, but it was exchanged with a severe injury.

Murong Mengyi fell silent. Although they were rivals, deep down, they did care for each other. She couldn't imagine what it would be like if Hong Hualian died.

"What? Are you feeling sad for me?... Cough!" Hong Hualian tried to tease Murong Mengyi but ended up coughing up more blood.

"Stop talking." Murong Mengyi said. "I'll try to contact others. There should be a way."

"Heh... Since when do I, a dignified Red Lotus God Emperor, need someone to help me?" Hong Hualian said arrogantly. "Don't worry. I won't die easily. At least I have to burn that bastard Ren Yuan first. Otherwise, I can't rest in peace."

Murong Mengyi closed her eyes and said. "Wait for me."

She placed the transmission jade down and lapsed into a prolonged silence. The atmosphere in the room was so solemn that Murong Xue had to restrain her breathing.

A moment later, Murong Mengyi opened her eyes and spoke to her granddaughter. "I'll send you to the Moon God Realm. It is currently the safest place in the Divine Realm. Your friends are there as well."

Before Murong Xue could refuse, Murong Mengyi waved her hand. "Don't argue with me. Instead of perishing with me and everyone here, you should live on and find a chance to avenge us."

"Grandma..." Murong Xue clenched her fists so tightly that droplets of blood could be seen seeping through the gaps between her fingers. She blamed herself for being useless.

Murong Mengyi reached out to touch her granddaughter's head and said softly. "Silly girl. Don't belittle yourself. You are just returning to the Divine Realm a little late. Given another thousand years, you will be as powerful as I am now."

She turned to Meng Wanxi and said. "Take her away."

Meng Wanxi lowered her head, her eyes filled with unwillingness. "Understood, master."

Thud!

Murong Xue fell to her knees and kowtowed three times. Her face was filled with determination as she spoke. "I will not let you down, Grandma."

With that, she turned around decisively and left.

"I'll come back to accompany you, master." Meng Wanxi bowed deeply and followed Murong Xue out.

Watching the two leave, Murong Mengyi closed her eyes and said to herself. "Wait for me, Yun Tian... I will go to your side soon."

Bang!

"Checkmate." Jin Long calmly placed a chess piece on the chessboard and said.

Yun Lintian stared at the chessboard for a while and let out a long sigh. "Chess is really not for me."

Yun Lintian had no talent for chess in his two lifetimes, making it impossible for him to compete with a veteran like Jin Long.

"It can be practiced." Jin Long said with a faint smile.

In the past month, they sparred constantly day and night without taking much rest. Yun Lintian's strength had improved by leaps and bounds, and he was now capable of unleashing his full power.

At the same time, their relationship became closer. They treated each other with respect and on equal ground.

Yun Lintian shook his head and said. "Although chess is good, it would be a waste of time for me."

Before Jin Long could say anything, Qingqing suddenly flew over and said. "Big Brother Yun, something terrible has occurred in the Divine Realm."
