Get Lost!

Ye Han's eyes gleamed with cold light, but he only had one chance left. He merely intimidated them and did not attack again.

The remaining Titled Douluo did not dare act rashly either. Ye Han had looked like he was at the end of his rope before, yet no one could be sure whether he could unleash that attack again.

It was precisely this fear that drove the four of them into silence.

"Sword Douluo, Clan Master Yu, how about we attack together?" Ghost Charm's voice suddenly rang out.

"Hmph! That brat's spear is no joke!" Yu Yuanzhen glared at Ghost Charm in displeasure.

As the atmosphere fell silent again, Ye Han quietly let out a breath. He still had one chance to instantly kill a Titled Douluo, but what would that change? He would still die afterward.

"Since you say that, then leave! Why are you still hanging around here? Isn't it because you can't bear to give up these Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts?" Yue Guan directly tore apart their hypocrisy.

Sword Douluo and Yu Yuanzhen both looked rather grim. "And Spirit Hall is any different? You suggested attacking together—if you've got the guts, go seize them yourselves! There are two of you. If one dies, wouldn't the other get what he wants?"

Yue Guan merely snorted coldly at Yu Yuanzhen's words and said nothing more.

"What? You don't dare attack, yet you can't bear to give up the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts? To be honest, I have a pretty good relationship with Yu Tianheng and Ning Rongrong. But if Your Excellency Chen Xin and Your Excellency Yu Yuanzhen insist on making a move today, I can at least take one of you down with me!" Ye Han spoke slowly. At a time like this, he could play the emotional card and stall for time.

Just moments ago, Esdeath and the others had already informed Zhao Lei and Dugu Bo. All Ye Han needed to do now was hold them off.

"You little bastard, you have a good relationship with Tianheng? Yet you open your mouth and say our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will be wiped out?" Yu Yuanzhen looked at Ye Han darkly.

Upon hearing Yu Yuanzhen say this, Sword Douluo's expression shifted slightly in surprise before he, too, looked at Ye Han with displeasure.

"Boy Ye Han, we've dealt with each other several times. I know your temperament well enough. Why risk your life for a few Soul Beasts?" Sword Douluo asked calmly.

In the current situation, Ye Han was afraid that they would stop talking to him. As long as there was a topic, he could stall for time.

"Your Excellency Chen Xin, one must have a conscience in life. These Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast seniors were injured while helping us resolve the Beast Tide. Senior Red Scale in particular blocked most of the attacks for us. I am not an ungrateful person, and I trust that Your Excellency Chen Xin is not one either!"

Ye Han's words implied that these Soul Beasts had been injured because of the Beast Tide. Humans had benefited from its resolution, so attacking now would be an act of ingratitude.

By putting it that way, he planted a psychological suggestion in their minds, making them hesitate and feel morally uneasy.

The four Soul Beasts behind Ye Han felt somewhat embarrassed. Back then, they had allowed the Soul Beasts to attack humans. If the black fog had not threatened to destroy the Star Dou Great Forest in the end, they never would have intervened.

"Nice words! Did humans start the Beast Tide?" Yue Guan said disdainfully.

"Humans may not have started it, but humans caused it. Frankly, if you Titled Douluo weren't so obsessed with Soul Bones and slaughtering Soul Beasts indiscriminately, would they have launched a Beast Tide?"

Ye Han looked meaningfully at the four Titled Douluo before him. Whether they possessed Soul Bones or not, they definitely wanted them. When it came to hitting a sore spot, Ye Han considered himself a professional.

The atmosphere sank into silence once more, and Ye Han prayed that Zhao Lei and Dugu Bo would hurry up.

Then, at that very moment, two figures sprang from the grass and attacked Ye Han directly. It was a sneak attack, and Ye Han's attention had been entirely fixed on the Titled Douluo in front of him.

Slap!

The sound of clapping rang out as Ye Han switched places with Todo. Todo was sent flying, and both his hands were visibly broken.

Esdeath and Lia swiftly swung their swords, forcing back the Soul Saint. Ye Han looked at the Soul Saint with an icy expression.

"Spirit Hall people? Good! Since your people are here, I won't lose out by taking one of you with me!" Ye Han immediately locked onto Yue Guan.

Yue Guan's body stiffened. He had not expected Ye Han to be so decisive, nor had he expected the earlier sneak attack to fail.

Sensing Soul Power gathering around Ye Han, Yue Guan truly panicked. "Wait! We knew nothing about this. That Soul Saint acted on his own!"

Ye Han did not believe him at all. He was very calm now. He knew that Yue Guan said this partly in hopes that Ye Han would use this attack on the Soul Saint, and partly to test whether Ye Han could still use the Piercing Death Thorn Spear.

In response, Ghost Charm waved a hand. Four or five Soul Saints suddenly appeared around them, all targeting Ye Han. Esdeath and Lia quickly stepped in front of him.

"Get lost!"

Just as Ye Han was preparing to take one down with him, an angry roar suddenly echoed throughout the Star Dou Great Forest.

With only that single shout, Ghost Charm and the others felt their minds go blank for a moment.

The once tranquil lake abruptly churned into a whirlpool. A tall man emerged from it, his expression extremely cold. Though no aura radiated from him—

Everyone faced him as though confronting a great enemy. Only Ye Han wore a strange expression. He had roughly guessed the man's identity: the Black Dragon King, Di Tian, from the story he had told at the very beginning!

Even Sword Douluo Chen Xin, who had reached level 95, felt a wave of powerlessness before Di Tian.

"You humans are becoming more and more presumptuous!" Di Tian glared at them, especially Yue Guan and Ghost Charm.

Ghost Charm and Yue Guan both froze. The pressure from the man before them was comparable to that of the Great Enshrinement, Qian Daoliu. He was the kind of existence against whom they could not even summon the will to attack.

"I'll give you three seconds. Disappear from my sight, or you need not leave at all!"

The moment Di Tian finished speaking, the four Titled Douluo vanished from where they stood, nowhere to be seen. Only the remaining Soul Saints were left behind, either because they were not fast enough or because they had frozen in shock.

But Di Tian would not freeze. With a wave of his hand, the Soul Saints were completely erased from this world.

After dealing with the Soul Saints, Di Tian turned his gaze toward Ye Han and the others. That glance was enough to make even the four Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts behind Ye Han struggle to endure it.

"Respected Soul Beast senior, since you have appeared, we'll be taking our leave first!" Ye Han gave an awkward smile and prepared to flee.

"Stay. Someone will come treat your injuries shortly!" Ye Han instantly knew whom Di Tian meant.

Sure enough, before long, a Soul Beast known as the Emerald Swan appeared before Ye Han and the others. The Emerald Swan, Bi Ji, was not yet as powerful as she would be in The Unrivaled Tang Sect, which was understandable.

"Child, thank you for what you did this time!" Bi Ji gently enveloped all the injured humans and Soul Beasts in her Soul Power.

A warm current slowly spread through their bodies, and their injuries gradually began to heal. This healing power and speed were no weaker than the Nine Heart Begonia.

"I'm sorry, but this Little Girl is not injured. She merely exhausted too much Soul Power at once and fell unconscious." Everyone who had been injured awakened.

Only Kurumi had overdrawn her Soul Power. Ye Han nodded politely. "Thank you, senior. May I ask what that senior from before meant?"

"You can call me Bi Ji. Di Tian is actually quite reasonable, and he should not do anything rash against people like you." Bi Ji smiled.

"Bi Ji, once you're done healing them, bring them over!"

Di Tian's voice suddenly rang out. Bi Ji calmly led Ye Han and the others to find Di Tian.

"I'll be leaving now. The injuries those four sustained earlier still need tending to." Bi Ji tactfully took her leave, leaving only Ye Han and the others with Di Tian.

"Um, senior, may I ask who you are?" Ye Han asked cautiously.

Di Tian smiled teasingly. "Kid, stop pretending. I was there when you told that legend!"

Ye Han truly felt like he had been screwed over. If Di Tian had been there all along, why had he not come out sooner? Why had Ye Han fought so desperately? What a waste of emotion.

"Hehe! Um, Senior Di Tian, may I ask why you kept us here?" Ye Han smiled awkwardly and asked carefully.

"Don't worry. You never abandoned Red Scale and the others in the end, so I acknowledge you. I only kept you here because I hope to make a deal with you!" Di Tian's expression grew slightly solemn as he spoke.

"Please, go ahead." Ye Han felt that this was going to be another troublesome matter, but circumstances left him no choice but to comply.

"I will soon undergo a lightning tribulation. I have very little confidence in surviving it this time, so..."

"Senior, your lightning tribulation must be at least fifty or sixty years away. I can't help you with that!"

Ye Han's words made Di Tian's face darken. He said irritably, "What are you talking about? What the hell could you do even if you came? I only think you have good potential. If I fail this time, I hope that you can care for our Soul Beast race in the future!"

That made Ye Han breathe a sigh of relief. If Di Tian had really wanted him to help with a lightning tribulation, Ye Han felt he would definitely be dead. "That's good, that's good! It's only a small matter, senior. Rest assured!"

"It would be best if you agree. Of course, I will not let you suffer a loss. Some of my ten-thousand-year Soul Beast subordinates cannot break through and are nearing the end of their lifespans. I can have them sacrifice themselves to you as thanks!"

Di Tian's words stirred Ye Han's heart. After several battles of overexertion, Ye Han's experience was nearly at level 40. He had been considering how to acquire a Soul Beast, and now this was perfect—not only could he obtain Soul Beasts, they would be ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts offering themselves as sacrifices.

"Then thank you, senior!" Ye Han said gratefully.

Di Tian nodded. "You deserve it. Cultivate here for now. I'm going out to deal with something. Two more Titled Douluo have arrived. They truly don't know whether they're dead or alive!"

"Wait, senior! Those two are our elders. Please show mercy!" Ye Han hurriedly spoke, then quickly contacted Zhao Lei to explain the situation.

Di Tian nodded upon hearing this. Soon, a powerful aura covered the entire Star Dou Great Forest, and everyone nearby heard a voice.

"For the next three days, no human is permitted to enter the Star Dou Great Forest. Those who do will be killed without mercy. Also, that brat Ye Han and his companions are with me and are in no danger! His elders may return!"

Upon hearing Di Tian's words, Ye Han's mouth twitched slightly. With that announcement, wouldn't he become famous? Now the whole world would know about him.
