" Hela, you deal with Ye Ciqing, I'll fight Ye Yiqing!"

Xing Lan shouted at Hela, after all, Ye Yiqing's laser eyes and [ Fire Imbuement ] were too much of a counter to Hela.

"Good."

Hela nodded, turned around, and ran towards Ye Ciqing.

Ye Ciqing remained calm, standing still and giving Hela a smile.

A flash of fire formed a huge wall of fire in front of Hela, Ye Yiqing used Hela to block it.

With lightning speed, he swung his knife at her again.

Even before the blade, engulfed in raging flames, touched Hela, Hela could already feel the scorching heat emanating from it.

Hela braced herself with her legs, preparing to retreat and dodge, when several bone spikes pierced out from the surrounding ground.

He pierced himself and held himself firmly in place.

Strange, how did Ye Ciqing manage to stab himself so precisely while blocked by the wall of fire?

Before Hela could even think, Ye Yiqing's knife was already in front of him.

Just as the blade was about to strike Hela, Ye Yiqing's eyes shifted, and he changed the direction of the blade, swinging it to his side.

He blocked all the bullet-like stars.

Then, Xing Lan flew over quickly, wielding a straight blade with a crescent moon design, and kept slashing at Ye Yiqing.

Ye Yiqing quickly raised his knife to parry.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang...

The crescent moon clashed repeatedly with the blade, producing metallic clanging sounds and sparks. The powerful force forced Ye Yiqing to retreat repeatedly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hela swung her bone whip, shattering the bone spikes around her.

A bone javelin pierced through the wall of fire, heading straight for Hela.

Having just broken free of her restraints, Hela quickly raised her hand to defend herself.

The spear pierced Hela's palm and stopped in front of Hela.

But the next moment, the shape of the spear suddenly changed, and countless bone spikes burst forth from it.

Like a sea urchin, it pierced Hela's entire arm, leaving it a bloody mess, and also pierced her eyes.

Hela quickly shook her hand, throwing the bone spur aside along with her arm.

Before the bone spur even hit the ground, it hovered in the air, transforming back into a javelin and returning to Ye Ciqing's hand.

Hela's eyes quickly recovered, and she lashed Ye Ciqing with her blood-stained bone whip.

Because of the distance, Ye Ciqing easily avoided the damage by dodging backward.

Hela darted through the wall of fire and stood before Ye Ciqing, then swung her bone whip once more.

Ye Ciqing was shocked. There was no way to dodge at this distance, and with Hela's attack power, being hit would be fatal.

Hela's scarlet bone whip was reflected in Ye Ciqing's blood-red left eye, transmitting the image to Ye Yiqing's right eye.

Ye Yiqing forcefully pushed away Xing Lan, creating a small distance between them, and then quickly slashed at Hela with a fiery sword aura resembling a shark fin.

The sharp sword energy deflected Hela's bone whip aimed at Ye Ciqing, and at the same time, a wall of fire was formed between the two of them again.

This allowed Ye Ciqing to distance himself from them.

Upon seeing this strange scene, Xing Lan's eyes narrowed, and she formed a rough guess in her mind.

Sizzle!

A laser beam shot out, and Xing Lan stepped on the wall to avoid it.

However, the wall was shattered by the laser, opening up the adjacent room.

Ye Yiqing suddenly unleashed several sword energies towards Ye Ciqing without warning, once again helping him escape danger.

Xing Lan is now completely certain that Ye Yiqing and Ye Ciqing either have a telepathic connection or share a common vision.

That's why Ye Yiqing was able to help Ye Ciqing so conveniently.

Having deduced these things, Xing Lan instantly had a solution in mind, and turned to shout at Hela:

"Attack with all your might, as fast as you can. Don't worry, Ye Yiqing will help him!"

After speaking, the two pairs of star-shaped wings behind her spread out and aimed at Ye Yiqing.

Like a torrential downpour, the stars all hurled at each other.

Its density is several times higher than usual.

Ye Yiqing frowned and tried to dodge.

But Xing Lan caught up even faster.

Helpless, Ye Yiqing had no choice but to draw his sword and swing it repeatedly in front of him to defend against the attacks.

Ye Yiqing managed to block out all the stars, not a single one of them was visible.

But this meant he wouldn't be able to free up his hands to help Ye Ciqing anymore.

This is exactly what Xing Lan wants.

Hela's hands moved rapidly, transforming into several tentacles that wrapped around Ye Ciqing.

Ye Ciqing's right eye glowed red, and a fierce flame erupted, scorching all the tentacles.

However, this temperature is not enough to burn the bone whip covered in blood.

The bone whip lashed straight at its opponent, meeting the flames.

Ye Ciqing used all his mental energy to activate his ability.

A thick spine rose from the ground in front of him, followed by countless thick ribs that enveloped and protected Ye Ciqing.

At the same time, he held the javelin in his hand in front of him.

Click!

Hela's bone whip lashed down, easily shattering the bones blocking Ye Ciqing's path like biscuits.

It struck the javelin that Ye Ciqing had used to block it.

The powerful force sent the opponent flying, and even the sturdy javelin in his hand cracked.

Ye Ciqing was knocked to the ground, struggled to his feet, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Damn, you really can't beat someone of a higher level..."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Hela's bone whip lashed out again, aiming for Ye Ciqing's neck.

"Drink--!"

Sensing that his younger brother was in Life danger, Ye Yiqing roared and his dark purple killing intent suddenly erupted.

With a single Demon Slaying, aiming for Xing Lan.

The Demon Slaying covered a wide area, blocking out countless stars and crushing them with unstoppable force.

Xing Lan immediately stopped attacking and flew to the side.

However, the fierce attack had exhausted most of her strength, preventing her from flying away at a normal speed.

The wings made of stars were instantly shattered by the dark purple sword energy, and Xing Lan fell to the ground with a thud!

Ye Yiqing sprinted towards Ye Ciqing at full speed, trying to save him.

But Hela's bone whip had already swung down.

Pfft!

A jet of blood gushed out, and the hard bone whip easily shattered flesh and bones.

Before Ye Ciqing could react, his head was flying high into the sky.

With his pure white head, Ye Ciqing's expression was clearly somewhat bewildered.

But as he felt the world spinning around him, he realized something, and his still-conscious mind turned to terror.

"Younger brother!"

Ye Yiqing let out a desperate shout, but he continued running.

He reached out and caught the severed head that Ye Ciqing had cut off.

In an instant, both of their scarlet eyes simultaneously glowed red.

The blood-red tumor began to grow rapidly after the two people touched each other.

In less than half a second, it completely enveloped the two of them, turning them into a terrifying-looking cocoon made of flesh and blood.

Thump, thump!

The fleshy pupa began to beat like a heart, with a drumming sound coming from it, and the speed and magnitude of the beating increased.

Hela and Xing Lan watched all of this in disbelief.

However, Xing Lan quickly reacted, picked up the straight knife that had fallen to the ground, its crescent-shaped blade gleaming with Xing Lan, and slashed at the fleshy cocoon.

Just as the blade was about to touch the fleshy pupa, it suddenly exploded like a bomb.

The powerful impact sent Xing Lan flying, but Hela caught her.

The two women immediately looked toward the spot where the fleshy pupa had exploded, their pupils contracting rapidly.

At the epicenter of the explosion, a figure stood there.
