Lu Xinyan was secretly shocked when she heard that. Elder Mu was such a powerful Saint, yet he was not the strongest person in Fukai no Seigoku.
The old man in black put his hands behind his back and ignored Lu Xinyan's pleas. He looked in the direction of the palace without saying a word.
…
"I'll stop him. You guys take the opportunity to escape."
Gu Yun gripped the long sword in her hand. Her eyes flashed with determination. Then, she shot into the sky and charged toward Elder Mu.
However, she was also very weak in front of Elder Mu.
Elder Mu stood in the sky above the palace and slapped Gu Yun back again.
In just a moment, the two women were seriously injured. Their vitality was dim. They were like lamps in the dark night that could be extinguished at any time.
Trying to escape?
It was impossible!
Even if Gu Yun tried her best, she could not stop Elder Mu for even a moment.
With Elder Mu in the way, they could not escape at all.
"Surrender yourselves. There's no need to struggle," Elder Mu said calmly.
He did not kill them directly. The two women were Heavenly Venerables. It would be perfect if they could be subdued and used by the Holy Empire.
Of course, the most important thing was that they could lure Xi Qianye out.
What he did not know was that Xi Qianye was in the Stone Ant City and in the palace. However, the palace was too big. He could not always pay attention to every movement in the palace.
Xi Qianye appeared at the entrance of the palace the moment Elder Mu appeared and emitted an earth-shattering aura.
He was almost at the Yunluo Hall's main hall.
"It's my fault for being too stubborn."
Gu Yun looked at Orange Light and then at Gu Qingyan. She sighed softly.
If she hadn't made a move so easily and had concealed herself until she had enough confidence before making a move, she and Gu Qingyan wouldn't have fallen into such a desperate situation.
In fact, she was so anxious because she was afraid that Xi Qianye would come to the Stone Ant Palace to save them.
Just as Gu Qingyan had said, with Xi Qianye's personality, there was a high chance that he would rush to the Stone Ant Tribe's royal palace to save Xi Qianye. Therefore, Gu Yun planned to save Chengguang before Xi Qianye arrived, so that Xi Qianye would not have to take the risk again.
However, she didn't expect that one mistake would cause her and Gu Qingyan to fall into the trap.
If she and Gu Qingyan both fell into Fukai no Seigoku's hands, what would Xi Qianye do?
Would he come to save them?
But if he came to save them, how could he fight against so many experts from Fukai no Seigoku?
In just an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Gu Yun's mind.
This was the difference between men and women.
At such a critical moment, she was still thinking about others.
However, Gu Yun did not expect that just as the image of Xi Qianye flashed through her mind, a familiar voice sounded in front of Yun Luo Hall.
"I'm late. Fortunately, I'm not late."
The voice was indifferent and familiar. It was as cold and emotionless as usual. The three women who were trapped in Yun Luo Hall trembled at the same time. They looked at the entrance of Yun Luo Hall in disbelief.
They saw a young man walking in openly from outside Yun Luo Hall. It was as if he was taking a stroll in his own backyard.
"Who is it?"
The two Sages guarding the entrance of Yun Luo Hall exclaimed at the same time. Why would a young man suddenly appear in the heavily guarded royal palace of the Stone Ant Tribe?
Just as the two of them were about to step forward to stop him, an invisible force hit them and sent them flying.
The two Sages fell on the stone pillars of the main hall like two bedbugs, causing the huge Yunluo Hall to tremble slightly.
Xi Qianye stepped into Yun Luo Hall openly and helped Gu Yun up. After fighting with Old Man Mu a few times, Gu Yun had less than one-tenth of her life force left in her body.
It was easy for Sages to recover from injuries, but it was difficult to recover from a destroyed life force. Under normal circumstances, Gu Yun might not be able to recover even if she cultivated in seclusion for ten years.
Moreover, she would be in a weakened state during this process. If she fought with the enemy again, the probability of her dying was quite high.
The so-called immortality of Sages was only a concept in the minds of ordinary people.
In fact, in the circle of Sages, death existed all the time.
"Xi Qianye!"
Ren Anxing's gaze was fixated on Xi Qianye's body, staring at him closely as he spoke word by word.
In the sky, Old Man Mu also looked at Xi Qianye.
In the entire Yun Luo Hall, all the cultivators of Fukai no Seigoku looked at Xi Qianye.
No one had expected that the Sea Cover Holy Empire, who had been constantly sending people out to hunt down this young man, would actually come to their headquarters in such a grandiose manner.
His casual appearance made it seem as if Yun Luo Hall was his own home.
"Xi Qianye …" Gu Yun grabbed Xi Qianye's hand tightly. Although she was smiling, her eyes were bitter.
Today, they were afraid that they were really in trouble. However, to be able to be with Xi Qianye, perhaps they didn't have too many regrets.
"You really came."
Gu Qingyan sighed softly. She was not surprised at Xi Qianye's appearance.
However, why did he come out now?
Fukai no Seigoku's power was unstoppable. Why did he come out to die?
Fukai no Seigoku was not the Xiling Country. A huge and ancient country was not something they could compete with.
Orange Light fiercely rolled her eyes at Xi Qianye. She felt suffocated and wronged in her heart. If it wasn't for Xi Qianye causing trouble everywhere, how could she and the young miss have fallen into such a miserable state?
"It's all my fault. I've made you suffer." Xi Qianye smiled and patted Orange Light's shoulder.
Orange Light was a little embarrassed when she saw this. "It's not all your fault. Anyway, there's no good person in Fukai no Seigoku."
"Xi Qianye, I've always heard that you're extremely daring and unrestrained. Today, I see that it's true."
Ren Anxing smiled coldly as he looked at them. He released a powerful Sage aura to envelop them. His eyes were full of mockery as if he was looking at a few caged beasts.
At the same time, in Yun Luo Hall in the Stone Ant Palace.
Cultivators walked out of Yun Luo Hall one after another. They were all Sages. They were the true elites of Fukai no Seigoku who came to the Tianlan Ruins this time. Xi Qianye's appearance had attracted the attention of the entire Yun Luo Hall, the entire palace, and even the entire Stone Ant City.
The people of Fukai no Seigoku came out in full force and surrounded him.
After all, Xi Qianye was someone they had been looking forward to capturing.
Yun Xiangjun, who was standing at the edge of Stone Ant City, sighed softly. Xi Qianye still showed up in the end.
Originally, she thought that after Old Man Mu appeared, Xi Qianye would not act rashly. Perhaps he would hide in the city for now.
However, she still underestimated Xi Qianye. She underestimated his courage and ambition.
In the restaurant, Lu Xinyan's eyes narrowed as well. She looked in the direction of the palace in shock. She also did not expect Xi Qianye to show up at the last moment.
