A Brilliant Plan!

Countless ghost-shaped bolts of black energy shot out of the mist, blanketing the sky as they hurtled toward Dugu Bo and Lin Ye.

Even as Gui Mei battered Dugu Bo,

he kept an eye on Yue Guan's situation on the other side.

He could tell...

Yue Guan could no longer hold out.

Now was their best chance to leave. Otherwise, he would lose his old life here.

"Retreat!"

To be on the safe side,

Gui Mei even unleashed his sixth soul skill.

"Fourth soul skill—Lone Fragrance in Solitude!"

Yue Guan turned his wrist.

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum in its Martial Soul Avatar state suddenly bloomed.

Threadlike strands peeled away from it...

One charged toward Lin Ye, while the other fled toward Heaven Dou City.

Lin Ye saw this!

He swung the Ice Soul Dragon-Slaying Sword up and down, unleashing hundreds of blades of sword energy in an instant.

Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang—

Had Lin Ye not arrived in time, he would certainly have died at
