Chapter 1516 Escape (2)
Riip!
As soon as the male voice fell, a golden line flashed across the space and instantly blasted the thunderbolts around Yue Hua away.
Zi Wei slowly turned to look at the newcomer and said coldly. “You shouldn’t meddle with my business, Kong Hui.”
A middle-aged man in a plain white robe stepped out of the void with his hands behind his back. His entire body exuded no aura as if he was a mortal. The man was the Shrouding Sky God Emperor, Kong Hui.
Kong Hui said calmly. “I’m doing this for your own good. You have betrayed our teacher once, and I don’t want to see you go deeper into this.”
He then turned to Yue Hua and said politely. “Junior Kong Hui greets Priestess Yue. Please forgive me for being late. I was in a slumber in the past year.”
Yue Hua returned with a slight nod and nothing else. She didn’t leave immediately because she saw Kong Hui appear in her divination.
“For my own good?” Zi Wei smiled coldly. “Who are you to teach me, Kong Hui?”
Kong Hui shook his head slightly. “In the entire Divine Realm, the one person who can teach you is no longer here. Brother Zi should know it well.”
Zi Wei’s face darkened upon hearing this.
“As I said earlier, I’m here to stop you from going deeper on this path.” Kong Hui said further. “Besides, Priestess Yue is a benefactor of everyone here. How would people look at you after knowing you had attacked her?”
“Do I look like I care about them?” Zi Wei responded coldly.
“You may not, but your descendants will.” Kong Hui said calmly. “You should take time and travel around more to see how people talk about you, Brother Zi. Even if you could blame Ren Yuan for the past incident, people are not easy to fool… Are you sure you want your descendants to carry the infamy for eternity?”
“Enough!” Zi Wei spat coldly as he launched himself into the sky. The violet thunder sparks around him erupted, turning the entire space into a terrifying field of lightning.
“Alas… Why must you be stubborn?” Kong Hui sighed softly. He raised his hand slightly, and golden light immediately shot toward the space above him before turning into a vast golden dome and filling the entire space.
Boom! Boom! BOOOM—
Wave after wave of incredible God Emperor power exploded against the surface of the golden barrier. If this had not been the barrier that had been formed by one of the most powerful defensive God Emperors in Kong Hui, it would have been destroyed in a single wave of attacks.
“You forced me.” Zi Wei raised his hand slightly, and a thunderbolt abruptly struck onto it before transforming into an exquisite violet-colored trident. It was one of the top divine artifacts, Thunder God Trident of Annihilation.
Rumble—
The moment the trident appeared in Zi Wei’s hand, it brought a million bolts of lightning along, mercilessly bombarding the golden barrier.
Kong Hui’s expression turned serious. The golden light radiating from his body suddenly grew dull and dim, as if it was about to dissipate completely.
In that instant, a dazzling golden light exploded from within Kong Hui’s body, blinding everyone in the scene. The original golden barrier suddenly grew thicker and stronger. It even started to reflect the incoming thunderbolts back to Zi Wei and the other Divine Emperors.
“Do you want to continue, Brother Zi?” Kong Hui calmly looked at Zi Wei, whose face brimmed with killing intent.
Zi Wei’s strength might be stronger than his, but Kong Hui’s Shrouding Sky Sealing Technique was no ordinary. It would take Zi Wei a long time to break it.
Zi Wei gripped the trident tightly and said nothing. In fact, he was fully aware that he could no longer attack Yue Hua the moment Kong Hui appeared. After all, Kong Hui was known for his defensive power for a reason.
Kong Hui sighed and said further. “You should go back before Sister Yu returns. It will bring no good for our Eastern Divine Region then.”
Zi Wei stared at Kong Hui and Yue Hua for a while and waved his hand, vanishing into the void with the other three Divine Emperors.
Kong Hui shook his head and retracted the barrier. He turned to Yue Hua and said. “May I ask for advice, Priestess Yue?”
Yue Hua looked at him and said calmly. “Stay true to your heart, and everything will be fine… The new era has come.”
Kong Hui fell into deep thoughts when he heard this. A moment later, he said firmly. “Thank you for telling me this. I have failed to repay my teacher’s grace in the past. I will try my best to help his successor this time.”
Yue Hua nodded gently and turned to look toward the south. At this moment, Yu Wuying appeared in everyone’s sight and arrived beside Yue Hua a few breaths later.
She scanned the surroundings briefly, and her gaze paused on Kong Hui. “You’ve come.”
“Sister Yu.” Kong Hui greeted her politely. At the same time, he was startled by Yu Wuying’s powerful aura. Clearly, she was stronger than Zi Wei. “You have hidden it too well.”
Yu Wuying didn’t respond to this. She turned to Yue Hua and asked. “Where’s he, Senior?”
“Our duty ends here. The rest depends on him.” Yue Hua said calmly.
Yu Wuying went silent for a moment and said. “I know what to do.”
Yue Hua nodded gently. “It’s time for me to go back. Some people were harassing my place during this period.”
“Do you need my help?” Yu Wuying asked attentively.
Yue Hua shook her head. “It’s a bunch of nuisances. They have been handled already.” 𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈
As she spoke, she put the brush away and took a broom out before sitting on it.
“I’m leaving.” Yue Hua said gently and drove the broom away with Yue Qi.
Yu Wuying turned to Kong Hui and asked. “Can you help me seal the Heavenhold Realm? I owe you a favor this time.”
Kong Hui smiled and said. “Why are you being polite?”
He turned around and pointed his finger toward the Heavenhold Realm in the far distance. Immediately, a golden light shot out of the tip of his finger and turned into a golden sphere, covering the entire Heavenhold Realm. With this, a God Emperor must think twice before attacking it.
“I will know immediately if any god emperors appear.” Kong Hui said.
