explosion!
The golden holy light was like paper before the purple chaotic power, torn apart, devoured, and annihilated layer by layer.
Wherever the fist energy shot, divine cultivators fell like wheat being harvested.
Some were thrown far away, some had their protective holy light shattered, and some were directly stunned.
Within three breaths, thirty or forty holy cultivators collapsed to the ground.
Xing Lie’s expression finally changed.
“Who are you?”
His voice trembled, “This Immortal Realm is impossible.”
David didn’t answer.
He stepped forward, his figure appeared before Xing Lie like purple lightning.
Xing Lie was shocked and exerted all his strength to activate the Holy Light, and the golden light condensed into a thick light shield in front of him.
David slammed his fist into the light shield.
Click!
The light shield shattered into pieces.
The second punch hit Xing Lie’s chest.
puff……
Xing Lie memuntahkan seteguk darah keemasan, dan sekali lagi terlempar, menabrak sebuah batu besar di dasar sungai.
He struggled to his feet, the fear in his eyes unconcealable.
“Retreat!” he shouted hoarsely. “Retreat immediately!”
The surviving divine cultivators helped him up, and they hurried away.
The riverbed returned to calm.
David turned around and looked at the ghost soldiers, old people, women and children.
They looked at him with complicated expressions.
There was gratitude, there was surprise, but more than anything, there was wary caution.
Like a small animal that has been hurt many times, it does not easily believe in anyone’s kindness.
The old man leading the group struggled to his feet, walked over to David, and bowed deeply.
“Thank you for saving my life, my benefactor.” His voice was hoarse and tired. “I’m Youying, an old servant of Youyue Kingdom.”
David helped him up: “No need for pleasantries. You are seriously injured, sit down and talk first.”
Youying shook her head: “It’s nothing serious, just a light injury. But you, the benefactor”
He looked at David’s pale face and the unhealed wounds on his body, and a glimmer of guilt flashed through his eyes.
“Our benefactor’s injury got worse when he saved us. This old man”
“I told you there was no need for such formalities,” David interrupted. “I was just passing by and couldn’t just stand by and watch.”
He paused for a moment, then asked, “Are you guys ghosts? And those chasing you are gods?”
Youying nodded, a glimmer of hatred flashed in her eyes: “People from the Judgment Hall of the Divine Clan. They have been hunting our Ghost Clan for thousands of years. My people have mostly died or been scattered, and now only these old, weak, and crippled people are left.”
His voice grew quieter until it was almost a murmur to himself.
David was silent for a moment.
He remembered what Yunxi had said: the gods, under the pretext of “eliminating evil spirits,” launched a massacre against the ghosts.
Of the demon race, only one in ten survived, and the survivors went into hiding.
So, these were Yunxi people.
“Where are you going?” David asked.
Youying said, “We need to return to Youyue Kingdom, which is the last hiding place of the Ghost Clan. It is deep in the Youming Mountains, and the God Clan has not been able to find it for the time being.”
He glanced at the elderly, women and children behind him and smiled bitterly: “There were originally more than three hundred people, but we were chased all the way, and now they are the only ones left.”
The little girl was still holding tightly to David’s leg, refusing to let go.
Her face was still wet with tears, but she had stopped crying. She just stared at David with her big, bright black eyes, as if she was afraid he would disappear.
Youying looked at the little girl and sighed, “This is Xiaoyou, her parents were in the battle just now”
He didn’t finish the sentence, but his meaning was clear.
David looked at the little girl and reached out to stroke her head.
“Your name is Xiaoyou?”
The little girl nodded, her voice soft, “Mmm.”
Where is your grandfather?
Xiao You’s eyes reddened again: “Grandpa Grandpa protects me”
He couldn’t continue, so he buried his face between David’s legs, his shoulders shaking.
David didn’t ask any further questions.
He was silent for a moment, then said to Shadow, “I’ll take you back.”
Youying was shocked: “My benefactor, how could I possibly accept this”
Just call me David.
David interrupted his words, “Moreover, I have a friend who is also a member of the Ghost Clan. He was swept up in the spatial storm and might be in this area. I will take you back and look for him as well.”
The shadow’s eyes suddenly lit up: “A friend? Also a member of the demon race?”
David nodded: “Her name is Yun Xi.”
The vague figure trembled violently.
“Princess Yunxi…?”
Her voice trembled, “You know Princess Yunxi?”
“I know him!” David nodded.
Overcome with emotion, Youying burst into tears: “Princess Yunxi is the princess of our Youyue Kingdom! She is the daughter of our King Yunquan!”
Princess Yunxi left some time ago, under the pretense of looking for the Reincarnation Gate, and there had been no news from her since. The king is still worried about him…”
He grabbed David’s arm, his voice trembling: “My benefactor, is the princess is she still alive?”
David nodded: “He is still alive. He got separated from me during the space storm, but he shouldn’t be in any danger.”
Youying knelt down, tears streaming down her face: “Heaven has eyes Heaven has eyes”
When the ghost warriors, old men, women, and children behind him heard the news that Princess Yunxi was still alive, they all knelt down. Some cried, some laughed, and some mumbled to themselves.
David helped them up one by one: “Get up, don’t kneel. I’ll find a way to find him when we return to Youyue Kingdom.”
Youying wiped her tears and nodded repeatedly: “Okay, okay. My benefactor no, Mr. David, let’s go now. Youyue Kingdom is located deep in the Youming Mountains, still two days’ journey away.”
David nodded, bent over, and picked up Xiao You.
Xiao You cuddled on his shoulder, her little hands tightly clutching his clothes, and soon fell asleep.
The group headed towards the Underworld Mountains.
Behind them, the wind in the barren land blew up the ash-black sand, slowly burying the bloodstains and traces of battle at the bottom of the river.
Under the purple sky, two suns shone brightly, casting extremely long shadows.
