Chapter 814: Chapter 233: Blood-Red Long Night, Unleashing Divine Techniques, Nine-Headed Ghost Gate Shattered!

Countless threads were wrapped around Lady Yan.

The threads were extremely fine, extremely concealed, like spider webs under an incandescent light in the Yin Qi.

Lady Yama seemed like a "prey" trapped in the midst of these numerous spider webs.

However, this "prey" was so enormous that the spider webs became a joke.

Yet, the true purpose of these threads was merely to serve as a medium.

A medium driving Yama to charge against the Ghost Gate.

"Paradise Garden!"

Li Yuan instantly understood who the other party was.

But the ones targeting Lady Yan weren’t from Paradise Garden, rather some others.

Some Evil Ghost Tools from Paradise Garden were very special, their "specialization direction" seemed to be distance.

Whether it was the previous "Thousand-Mile in a Line" or the "Sticky Thread" held by that skeleton called Chang Qi whom Li Yuan encountered in the early stages, both had extremely long "attack distances."

This led to the other party being able to attack from beyond Lady Yama’s attack range.

Yet Lady Yama couldn’t strike at those beyond her attack range.

To achieve this, however, required two prerequisites:

First, the other party must determine Lady Yama’s location;

Second, the other party must possess enough Evil Ghost Tools.

Li Yuan suddenly turned his head, looking at Xiao Wu Ya beside him, swiftly asking: "Why did your mother come out tonight?"

Xiao Wu Ya replied: "The year-end, Mother said she would summon Impermanence and the Divine Temple Guard..."

Li Yuan said: "So, she didn’t really sense the commotion on Ghost Street and went out?"

Xiao Wu Ya replied: "Yes... Dad, are you saying there are bad people among Impermanence and the guards?"

Immediately, she said: "Xiang Yan doesn’t seem like a bad person, I... I’ve been watching her all the time."

Li Yuan looked at those threads.

Those threads were quite elusive and very tiny.

Aside from revealing clues around Lady Yama, they disappeared into the night sky.

Xiao Wu Ya was a bit flustered, "Father, what do we do?"

Li Yuan coldly said: "The map exhausted, the dagger appears, but first, we must understand... what this dagger is aiming to stab?"

Xiao Wu Ya had heard her father tell the story of "The map exhausted, the dagger appears," in which the dagger naturally stabbed a king at the time, but now...

Xiao Wu Ya tentatively said: "Do they want Mother to merge with other forbidden ones?"

Li Yuan said: "This is just the first layer."

His thoughts danced like lightning, everything presented itself with utmost clarity.

"Second layer, they want to erase your mother’s humanity.

Whether or not to merge doesn’t matter, because if I’m not mistaken, other forbidden entities from various domains are also attacking the Ghost Gate, it isn’t just Fujiang and Mianzhou."

Xiao Wu Ya was shocked: "All... all are attacking?"

Li Yuan said: "The Divine Tomb’s gamble failed.

They thought by having you devour the Meat Field, using the Barbarian King to destroy the Ghost Realm, they would be at ease.

They thought the defeat of the 400,000 troops of the Seven Kingdoms Alliance was good news, worthy of a celebration feast.

Yet in fact, the opponents used the defeat of the 400,000 troops to directly crush all the kings.

Previously, those kings might have been wary of the consequences of the Great Unity of Yin Yang, but now... they’ve all become desperate outlaws.

To them, if they’re gone, what does it matter if this world continues to exist?

But among these forbidden entities, one is extremely unique, and that is your mother.

Your mother’s humanity will become the biggest variable, so... they want to destroy your mother’s humanity."

Xiao Wu Ya: ...

Li Yuan squinted and continued: "There is also a third layer."

"The third layer?"

Xiao Wu Ya was at a loss for words.

How could Father connect so many dots in an instant?

Right, Father himself is also a mastermind, this... this is what it means to understand a monster, often requires another monster?

Li Yuan didn’t explain further, but squinted, revealing a dangerous yet composed smile.

He murmured to himself: "It’s a pity, if your plan was earlier, it might have succeeded. But now... you no longer have any chance."

"Huh? Father, what are you talking about?" Xiao Wu Ya was a bit confused, "And what should we do now?"

Li Yuan said: "Look around for any suspicious individuals, if you encounter... judge for yourself, kill if necessary. The rest... leave it to me."

"Suspicious individuals, but... Father, I think they will hide well."

"So what? They will soon reveal themselves.

Just remember, the enemy may very well be within the Divine Temple."

With that, Li Yuan suddenly transformed, turning into a doll of steamed jade, accompanied by two fireballs sliding out beneath his feet with a "hiss," a horrifying Red Silk floated around him with a "whoosh."

"Do you recognize me?" Li Yuan asked.

Xiao Wu Ya shook her head.

It was truly her first time seeing this form of Father.

No!

Not only the form, but a whole new power.

A completely new power, combined with the form, no one would associate this doll with Father.

In the next moment.

Li Yuan ascended into the air.

And on the ground within this mountainous domain, black crows rose like black mist.

Encased in the black mist were four mysterious humanoid silhouettes.

Each one held a staff, tapping the ground with a "tap tap tap," heading east, south, west, and north.

Hovering above, Li Yuan suddenly waved his right hand, a dazzling scarlet surged from his palm.

Suspended mid-air, his radiance eclipsed the bright moon’s gentle glow.

"Since the threads cannot be traced, then..."

Li Yuan abruptly flung his hand.

The Red Silk around him drifted out.

The Red Silk grew with the wind, swiftly transforming into a gigantic Fire Cloth, about a half-mile in radius.

"Go!"

Li Yuan flung the Fire Cloth.

The Fire Cloth transformed into an unbelievable Yang Qi Blade.

The blade crashed down, and as it neared the Ghost Prison, the heavens and earth seemed to tremble slightly, revealing a distinctly thick red and black membrane that was incongruous.
