Yu Feng
"Elder Xiong Fei?... What agreement do you have with him?" Huo Ling'er asked curiously.
"If you want to know, just wait for the signal," Ye Feng said with a smile.
The area around the Heaven Mending Pavilion was engulfed in flames of war.
The entire area, from east to west and north to south, resembled a monster siege. Countless lives were kept outside by the disciples of the Heaven Mending Pavilion and the people of Stone Village. As time passed, more and more people stormed into the Heaven Mending Pavilion.
"Young man, even when death is imminent, you still have to hold on."
A series of mocking voices rang out.
The allure of the Divine Vine was too strong. Even with heavy casualties among the humans and Ferocious Beast, they refused to leave and instead intensified their attacks.
The Divine Vine is no ordinary being. The essence it possesses after its death will be one of the greatest opportunities before the Desolate Region Catastrophe.
The army on the ground was intercepted, but the army in the sky stormed into the courtyard where Divine Vine was located.
Suddenly, a beam of green light shot into the sky, forming a Teleportation Array. A number of people emerged from Teleportation Array. Besides humans, there was also a giant, venomous green serpent, hundreds of feet long.
"It's coming," Ye Feng said.
"What?" Huo Ling'er asked.
No matter how Huo Ling'er asked, Ye Feng simply wouldn't answer her.
The masked experts of the Rain Clan, led by a traitor, arrived outside the courtyard where the Divine Vine was located.
The traitor led his men into the courtyard.
"Sacrificial Spirit...wait, so many people...haha, they're all children... Does the Heaven Mending Pavilion expect these children to protect the Sacrificial Spirit? Haha...it's mine now."
"This is truly heaven's help! These young people are utterly insignificant. I could wipe them out with a single hand. If I can obtain the roots of the Divine Vine to refine medicine, the power of my Rain Clan will advance even further."
"That's right."
The powerful members of the Rain Clan had excited looks in their eyes.
Huo Ling'er couldn't stand it any longer. Pointing at Yu Feng, she angrily rebuked him, "Yu Feng, as a disciple of the Heaven Mending Pavilion, how dare you harm Lord Sacrificial Spirit?"
"Kill her," Yu Feng said.
"She is the princess of the Fire Nation. Killing her would be tantamount to our Rain Clan declaring war on the Fire Nation," a powerful member of the Rain Clan warned.
"If we don't kill her, even if we obtain the roots of the Divine Vine, it will cause great trouble for our Rain Clan afterward." Yu Feng said with a ferocious expression, "Kill her, and everyone here too."
"Alright, young Yu Feng, go and fetch the roots of the Divine Vine; they are the raw materials for refining the sacred medicine."
Several powerful members of the Rain Clan surrounded the young disciples of the Heaven Mending Pavilion.
"Yu Feng, do you recognize this old man?"
A hoarse voice rang out.
Guei Ye slowly walked out from the crowd.
He was shrouded in a gray robe, and he had just been with those disciples, so Yu Feng hadn't noticed his presence.
"You are..." Yu Feng hesitated. A pair of aged hands removed the cloak, revealing a face that was all too familiar to him. Yu Feng stared in disbelief, stammering in astonishment, "You are... you are... the Founding Ancestor?"
"People of the Rain Clan, prepare to die!" With a wave of his hand, Guei Ye conjured a silver-white bone sword.
The bone sword is covered with strange runes. Its main material for forging is not a single Primordial Remnant, but rather the bones of eighty-one Primordial Remnant and Pure-Blooded Creature.
The skeletons of each Primordial Remnant and Pure-Blooded Creature were incredibly massive. The eighty-one skeletons were eventually forged into a longsword 1.3 meters long, and the runic energy contained within it could only be described as terrifying.
This is the precious sword that Ye Feng forged for Guei Ye. It is named the Ten Thousand Beasts Sword.
Ye Feng helped Guei Ye forge this peerless sword, Guei Ye also gave Ye Feng a great deal of Primordial Remnant and the true blood of Pure-Blooded Creature. Both parties gained something.
With a wave of his hand, Guei Ye unleashed a silver sword blade. The attack was so fast that the giant azure python of the Rain Clan didn't even have time to react before being killed in a single strike.
"That strong?"
The Rain Clan's powerful members were dumbfounded.
That giant blue python was no ordinary creature; it was the ancient, exotic Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor. It was incredibly venomous, and its blue scales were extremely tough.
With a single sword strike, Guei Ye slew the giant azure python, then continued his attack, annihilating all the powerful members of the Rain Clan. Only Yu Feng remained alive.
"Traitor."
Guei Ye's sword was aimed directly at Yu Feng.
Yu Feng's legs trembled. A strong stench of urine filled the air. Liquid dripped from Yu Feng's feet and landed on the ground. As the top disciple of the Genius Camp, Yu Feng had been Guei Ye by Master Gui that he wet himself.
"Plop."
Yu Feng knelt on both knees and pleaded, "Founding Ancestor, it was... it was my family that made me do this. They said if I didn't do it, they would kill our parents. I had no choice but to betray the Heaven Mending Pavilion. The Heaven Mending Pavilion raised me and passed on its precious techniques to me. But my parents' lives are in their hands. Founding Ancestor, please spare me this time."
"Spineless Guei Ye," Guei Ye Gui roared. He was utterly disappointed in Yu Feng. He said, "Since that's the case, then I'll grant your wish. If I kill you, the Rain Clan won't make things difficult for your parents."
"No... Founding Ancestor... I... I..."
Yu Feng was extremely anxious. Everything he said was fabricated. His parents had not been kidnapped by the Rain Clan at all.
"Do you have any last words?"
"Founding Ancestor, spare my life. I will repay the Heaven Mending Pavilion even if it means serving you like a cow or a horse. I have truly come to my senses."
"Hmm...?" Guei Ye's heart skipped a beat. He pondered for a moment, then angrily said, "Fine, you actually dared to deceive me."
call out
With Guei Ye of his sword, Guiye killed the traitor Yu Feng.
"Finally dead."
Huo Ling'er walked to Yu Feng's corpse, kicked the body, and said angrily, "I never thought he was a traitor."
"Ding-dong!"
"Congratulations on setting a trap to kill the traitor Han Feng. This overturns the original storyline. Reward: 18 Attribute Points points."
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a dazzling firework appeared.
Those were fireworks created by a magical technique. They bloomed in the sky, forming a unique pattern.
"Here we go."
Ye Feng waved his hand, took out a jade bottle, and uncapped it, releasing a wisp of emerald green aura. Ye Feng approached the Divine Vine Ye Feng by step. The ground beneath his feet, influenced by the emerald green aura from the bottle, began to sprout new shoots. These shoots grew at a visible speed into a lush green meadow.
Besides the ground, lush green ivy also grows on the walls of the courtyard.
"What's in the bottle... that has brought this withered courtyard back to life?" Huo Ling'er asked in surprise.
"He said...that's the Water of Life ..." Guei Ye replied.
"The Water of Life?"
"A kind of emerald green liquid made primarily from rare and precious natural materials such as Chaos Qi, Fountain of Youth, and Monkey Wine, supplemented by more than 900 kinds of high-grade medicinal herbs."
"The little rascal is approaching the sacrificial spirit. What does he want to do?"
"Cure it."
Guei Ye's eyes softened. He desperately hoped his old companion could survive this ordeal and return to the Upper Realm with him, to continue their extraordinary life together.
