C542 Dao Gate Heavenly Thunder
A trace of red flashed across Yue Niancen's eyes. Anyone who saw it would understand the killing intent in his eyes.
It was as if he had pulled out a sharp blade from the sky. Yue Niancen held it in his hand, and with a determined look in his eyes, he lunged at Yee Lingsu.
The altar wasn't small, but it wasn't big either. To Yee Lingsu, there was no way he could escape. He was already trapped on the altar. He couldn't escape from this invisible barrier, nor could he resist the crazy people in front of him.
He could only run away with Mu Haiyang in his arms, rushing up and down the altar.
However, Yue Niancen was not a weakling. He caught up to him after escaping for only thirty feet, and the sharp blade in his hand stabbed into his heart without hesitation.
Yee Lingsu was stabbed by him before he even left the altar. Obviously, Yue Niancen was just playing with him, and didn't want to kill him so quickly.
Perhaps, as a victor, he needed an audience, and he also needed to show his strength.
Tell everyone that it's not that I don't want to kill you all, but that I want to play with you until you beg for mercy, or when you don't have confidence in yourself. Only then will he give you a swift slash.
Only then did he understand what it meant to live a life worse than death!
Yee Lingsu's heart was pierced through from his back and he smiled weakly. He hugged Mu Haiyang and said, "Ci... Senior brother is useless. He did not save you and did not protect you."
The hand that hugged her was no longer tightly safe. Instead, it slowly loosened, but it was as if he was afraid of falling onto her.
At this moment, Yue Niancen coldly snorted. Songqing sneered. His sharp blade was quickly pulled out. Not even blood splashed out. It could be seen that his sharp blade was so fast.
At the same time, when he pulled out the sharp blade, Yee Lingsu hugged Mu Haiyang and knelt on the ground. He also loosened his grip, so Mu Haiyang naturally slipped out of his embrace.
Yee Lingsu looked at the tears at the corner of Mu Haiyang's eyes and smiled weakly. He was reluctant to speak again, but he could no longer move his lips. He could only silently say in his heart that only he himself understood his reluctance and sadness.
He was sad that he still could not save her. He was sad that he had not seen her live a good life yet...
"Ci... Son..."
The last thing Yee Lingsu said after he fell was to call her by her name. Perhaps Mu Haiyang would never hear anyone call her Ci again in this life.
His death did not affect anything. The Heavenly Ritual continued and the doors opened. The dark clouds dispersed and the battle on the drill ground continued.
Qing Yuzhuo did not have much of an expression on his face when he saw Yee Lingsu's death. Perhaps he had seen too many deaths, so he did not care too much about the death in this world.
They didn't belong to this world, so it was as if they had nothing to do with it.
Songqing was incomparably relaxed as he said, "Cen Er, carry Yici here. With only one soul left, you will be able to return to the sect with your master."
Yue Niancen's eyes were also flickering with excitement. He had already remembered ninety percent of the things that had happened. He also knew the purpose of this trip. He knew how he would die, how he would need the Heavenly Offering, and what the Heavenly Offering was for.
Carrying Mu Haiyang, he took a few big steps forward and placed her in the Eight Trigrams Map. Sitting opposite of her, his cold eyes were filled with contempt.
This time, Songqing naturally understood that Qing Yuzhuo would not make a move. After all, he wanted to keep Mu Haiyang's soul and save her in the future. However, Songqing's selfishness did not allow him to fulfill his promise. He wanted her to die here just for his disciple to return in one piece.
The reason why he didn't attack Qing Yuzhuo just now was to conserve his strength. After all, after knowing that the matter had been exposed, Qing Yuzhuo wouldn't help her. Perhaps he would even stop her. He had to calculate everything in order to make such a bold move.
Actually, there was no need for Songqing to attack. Qing Yuzhuo wouldn't attack either. He had completely lost the ability to attack.
Songqing drew a barrier, separating Qing Yuzhuo from the others. He formed a seal with his right hand and pointed at Mu Haiyang's forehead.
However, this finger did not pull Mu Haiyang's soul out. She almost suffered from the backlash. He changed his technique and pointed again, but he still could not pull her soul out.
At this time, the black clouds in the sky actually gathered in a large area. The black clouds that had spread throughout the entire Moon Abyss were gradually shrinking.
Songqing had a bad feeling, but when he stopped, he found that his hand was unable to move away from Mu Haiyang's forehead. When all the black clouds had gathered in the sky above the drill ground, the door of white light had also disappeared without a reason.
The moment it disappeared, a bolt of heavenly lightning struck the barrier of light between the two of them.
In an instant, it showed signs of cracking. Another bolt of heavenly lightning appeared out of nowhere and struck the barrier. With the sound of breaking, the barrier was split open.
The third bolt of heavenly lightning was no longer blocked. It struck towards Mu Haiyang. When Songqing saw the heavenly lightning striking down, he did not hesitate to use his Dao power to stop the attraction of the soul.
"Dao Gate heavenly lightning!" Qing Yuzhuo looked at the sky and murmured.
Seeing Songqing's surprised look, he knew that this was the first time he had seen such a scene. "This is? What kind of accident happened? Why is the Dao Gate gone?"
Qing Yuzhuo smiled weakly and looked at Mu Haiyang who was struck by the heavenly lightning. He sighed and said, "Yici, this is your own fortune... This old man also cannot save you."
With a sigh, he flicked his sleeve and took away the jade bottle. Before Songqing could react to the heavenly lightning, he disappeared into the sky.
"Master, Martial Uncle brought the jade bottle with him!" Yue Niancen reacted quickly and wanted to stop him, but he was still unable to stay.
"The last soul does not need the jade bottle. This jade bottle was originally taken to store Yici's last soul. It's good that he took it away. Master will separate her soul and you can merge it yourself." Songqing explained.
Yue Niancen asked again, "Master, the Dao Gate is gone. How are we going to return to the sect? Are we going to stay in this land of trials forever?"
"The Dao Gate has already been opened, so it will remain open for 49 days. As long as I leave during this period of time, I can return to the sect. The most important thing right now is to take Yici's soul out and not let her return to the sect. If she returns to the sect, it will definitely be a disaster."
" Disciple understands! "
Songqing suddenly thought of something and smiled. "However, the Heavenly Ritual is interrupted, and the day that the Dao Gate closes is also the day that she will die. No one can save her, not even Master."
Originally, he thought that by leaving Mu Haiyang's body behind, he could use other people's souls to replace her, and then prove that her body was still alive. Now that she had attracted the heavenly lightning, the Heavenly Ritual was interrupted, and only one soul was left in her body, no one could save her.
When they all thought that nothing unexpected had happened this time, the black cloud was filled with lightning once again, and it was about to break through the black cloud and strike at the altar.
Mu Haiyang, who was struck by the heavenly lightning just now, did not change at all. It was as if she had struck an insulator.
The rumbling sound became more and more intense.
Songqing saw another heavenly lightning fall from the black clouds. He shouted at Yue Niancen who was approaching Mu Haiyang, "Cen'er, dodge!"
Luckily, Yue Niancen reacted in time. When the lightning struck Mu Haiyang, he dodged and left her side, getting closer to Songqing's green light.
