Chapter 1280 Crisis (5)
Roar—
On the Eastern Continent, countless profound beasts poured in all directions, painting the original lush lands into black and red. Any path they passed would become a desolate land immediately.
A week ago, the Eastern Continent didn’t suffer much from the profound beast horde, but after the appearance of unknown experts, many coastal cities crumbled under their hands.
“Please take action, Palace Master Yan.” On a distant hill, a middle-aged man said pleadingly to Yan Yaoting.
The territory below belonged to his sect, and he could no longer watch his people get trampled by the profound beasts.
Yan Yaoting glanced at the profound beast horde below and said. “Go.”
Immediately, several elders behind him flew into the battlefield and joined the battle.
With the addition of top experts, the tide soon turned around. The profound beasts were slowly beaten back and forced to retreat.
“What do you think about this, Madam?” Seeing this, Yan Yaoting no longer paid attention to the battlefield and turned to look at a woman with her entire being covered beside him.
According to the ancient records inside the Blazing Sun Palace, Yan Yaoting discovered that there was a supreme existence residing inside the desert.
It was said that the Blazing Sun Palace’s founder had made an agreement with this existence in order to leave insurance for his descendants.
That existence was no other than Madam Leisure.
A week ago, Yan Yaoting went to the Boundless Desert to invite her over as an uneasy feeling arose in his heart.
Madam Leisure didn’t reply to him. Her magnificent eyes behind the veil were fixated on the sky, as she said. “They are coming.”
At this moment, a group of black mist traveled across the sky and stopped not far away from Yan Yaoting’s group.
The one in the front was Liang Ba, who was assigned by Mo Tian to come here. Behind him stood five men with hideous gray horns. They were members of the Gray Tomb Clan that had arrived in this world not long ago.
“That brat is the head here? Why is he so weak?” A burly man with an arrogant posture glanced at Yan Yaoting and said.
“Yes.” Liang Ba replied calmly.
The burly man snorted coldly. “Hmph! What a waste of time… Kill them.”
As his voice fell, the four men behind him immediately rushed toward Yan Yaoting. The auras they released instantly blasted away all the profound beasts and practitioners below.
Black Sun Huo Yang, who was standing behind Yan Yaoting, quickly stepped forward and released his power, trying to stop the incoming people.
In that instant, Madam Leisure said calmly. “Step back.”
Hearing this, Huo Yang hurriedly retreated but didn’t let his guard down.
At this moment, Madam Leisure gently lifted her hand, and several earth pikes suddenly protruded out of the ground and went straight to the incoming four men.
The speed was extremely fast that the four men were caught off-guard. As they were about to slap the earth pikes away, the pikes promptly split into countless earth arrows.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The arrows magically penetrated the four men’s defensive barriers and sunk into their bodies, leaving countless holes in them.
Before the four men could scream, Madam Leisure gently waved her hand again, and the remaining arrows suddenly exploded out of their bodies.
Boom!
The four men instantly exploded into pieces under the simple yet absolutely powerful move from Madam Leisure.
The expressions of Liang Ba and the burly man changed drastically. Without thinking further, they turned around and ran directly.
Madam Leisure glanced at them briefly and didn’t stop them. More precisely, she couldn’t stop them as her power hadn’t recovered fully.
“Master.” Madam Leisure’s maid, Little Lan, stepped forward and helped her master sit down.
Yan Yaoting bowed his head slightly and said. “Thank you for helping us, Madam. Without you, I’m afraid our lives have to end here.”
Madam Leisure waved her hand and said. “Since I have promised your ancestor, I naturally do as I said. You don’t have to be polite.”
She paused briefly and said. “However, the true crisis is far from happening. This is just the beginning. You have to bring everything out and prepare for the worst.”
Yan Yaoting nodded heavily. “Understood.”
He glanced at the disappearing Liang Ba and frowned slightly. “They don’t look like people from the Abyssal World. Especially that horned man. His abyssal aura is several times more concentrated than anybody I have ever seen. Even that Dragon of Death isn’t like this.”
“It’s because they are not coming from the Abyssal World but a Devil Realm.” Madam Leisure said calmly.
“Devil Realm?” Yan Yaoting frowned deeply at the unfamiliar term.
“The Devil Realm is similar to the Divine Realm that you know. Instead of having divine practitioners, it’s full of an existence called a devil. They are proficient in using the dark element.” Madam Leisure gave a simple explanation.
She glanced at the dark sky and said further. “There will be stronger devils coming later. Even an existence of the Divine King’s level will also appear. At that time, this world will certainly plunge into chaos and darkness.”
Yan Yaoting and Huo Yang were shocked to the core when they heard the words “Divine King.” Although they hadn’t gone to the Divine Realm, they could guess more or less about a Divine King Realm’s practitioner.
Once that kind of existence arrived here, who could be their opponent?
“However, we are not without hope.” Madam Leisure suddenly said. “As long as that person completes his goal, he will have the power to fight back.”
“That person?” Yan Yaoting frowned slightly. “Madam means… Yun Lintian?”
Madam Leisure said nothing back, but the glow in her eyes said it all.
Yan Yaoting took a deep breath to calm down. He saw that Yun Lintian was extraordinary but didn’t expect him to be to this extent.
What kind of background did Yun Lintian have? This question once again appeared in Yan Yaoting’s mind. 𝗼𝘃𝗹.𝗼𝐫𝗴
Unfortunately, Madam Leisure had no intention of telling him.

“Hehehe. It’s really the Divine Phoenix bloodline.” The gray man, who stepped into this world through the tunnel not long ago, looked at the Divine Phoenix Palace below with an evil grin.
He was a frontline general of the Gray Tomb Clan, Hui Cai.
“A little devil?”
Before he could do anything further, a cold female voice suddenly resounded in Hui Cai’s mind, causing him to frown deeply.
“Who!?”
