Chapter 2328 - 2326: Meeting Again

But what Solar Flames didn't expect was, instead of immediately using the exotic treasure he took out, Ning Gu's expression changed slightly before he spoke: "Fellow Daoist, if I use this exotic treasure to help you kill other enemies, can you allow us to leave?"

Solar Flames was taken aback by the question.

What's going on?

At such a moment, if one decides to use an exotic treasure, it should be decisive and straightforward. How can being so hesitant achieve great things?

But if the exotic treasure isn't used against him, Solar Flames would also be pleased.

Is this guy holding a grudge against someone? He wondered to himself.

"Who do you want to kill?" Solar Flames asked.

Ning Gu didn't answer but looked toward the place where Lu Ye and the female cultivator of the Insect Race were engaged in fierce combat.

Solar Flames raised his eyebrows.

This battle for the Star Abyss Heir has come down to the present, perhaps there are other hidden cultivators, but at this critical juncture, no one dares to reveal themselves, so they are of no concern. Therefore, his true opponents are only the Dao Fusion cultivators present.

He isn't clear whether Ning Gu wants to kill Lu Ye or the female cultivator of the Insect Race, but no matter who, it's good for him.

As for sparing Ning Gu...

In this territory of a million miles, even if he lets him go, how long can he hide? Especially at this moment, Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang are both severely injured.

Solar Flames honestly didn't expect such a favorable chance to occur. Though he isn't afraid of any exotic treasure, it is naturally good to avoid hassles.

He squinted slightly: "How about killing someone else instead?"

He actually wanted Ning Gu to use the exotic treasure against Su Yan more.

Ning Gu slowly shook his head, his attitude resolute.

He only wants to kill Lu Ye!

In this battle, he was the first to step forward and choose his companion in front of fifty thousand Dao Fusion cultivators, having complete confidence in winning the top spot with two Peak Dao Fusion working together. But because of that unexpected incident, it ended in failure.

His heart is filled with hatred! So even if he doesn't have it easy, Lu Ye must suffer too.

Seeing this, Solar Flames recognized that demanding further was impossible.

It's fine this way, although Su Yan poses a significant threat to him, if Lu Ye dies, then she would also be isolated. Despite her excellent Escape Technique, Dao force reserves are ultimately limited. As long as he and Moonless occupy the Dao Pool, they can remain unbeaten!

"Alright, I swear by the Will of the Star Abyss that if you do this, we will spare you this time and settle our score in the future!" Solar Flames proposed straightforwardly, knowing that Ning Gu would certainly have such a proposal, and took the initiative to present it.

"That's good then!" Ning Gu nodded in satisfaction, not doubting him. Since Solar Flames invoked the Will of the Star Abyss, of course, he couldn't deceive him.

From beginning to end, Junior Sister Shuang remained silent, merely showing some frustration in her expression.

After engaging in combat, she naturally saw the disparity between Ning Gu and herself with the opposing combination. If they truly continued, the two would inevitably face tragedy.

Now, using an exotic treasure as the price to preserve life inevitably presents future opportunities.

In short, survival comes first, based on this thinking, of course, she wouldn't hinder Ning Gu.

Both sides quietly reached an agreement, and Ning Gu wasted no time, channeling Dao force.

The exotic treasure in his hand was a square seal-like artifact. Though it appeared small, its surface had complex patterns. As Dao force activated it, the treasure suddenly trembled and disappeared.

Immediately, at the place where Lu Ye and the insect blood female cultivator were fiercely battling, a massive big seal appeared out of nowhere, descending with the force of a mountain top.

Lu Ye had been in a fierce contest with his opponent all along, neither side gaining the upper hand, perhaps he was slightly at a disadvantage, but there was no major issue; the key part was achieving reasonable action for his plan, thus, many things couldn't be rushed either.

He never imagined he would be targeted by Ning Gu.

This reality was too absurd, and he couldn't have guarded against it.

So when he sensed the danger coming, it was already too late.

The female cultivator of the Insect Race battling him also had a change of expression, having not expected this unexpected disaster.

She detected the source of the attack immediately, puzzled at why Ning Gu was attacking from over there, wasn't he supposed to deal with the Sun Race?

Did these two make some agreement?

No time to think further, she attempted to flee immediately, but with the big seal pressing down, this space seemed to freeze, no matter how hard she tried, her movements were as slow as a turtle.

Lu Ye was also trying to escape, but his performance wasn't much better than the female cultivator of the Insect Race.

"Senior Brother Lu!" Suddenly seeing the situation over there, Su Yan, evading the Blood Race Dao Fusion pursuit, couldn't help but shout.

Lu Ye roared madly, looking upward he saw the big seal engulfing his vision, coming down in an irresistible posture, he swung his blade upward with all his might!

But it was like a giant ant trying to shake a tree.

The long blade shattered, turning into powder.

The entire body was crushed under extreme pressure, exploding into a mist of blood, bones reduced to nothing, leaving behind a Star Abyss coin!

The big seal slowly dissipated, possibly due to Lu Ye's last desperate blow weakening its power, or perhaps the female cultivator of the Insect Race had slightly more strength. Though not dead, she spat blood and her carapace had countless cracks, clearly gravely injured.

Petrified, she immediately attempted to escape; being in poor condition now naturally meant healing was the priority.

Yet, in a Single Flash before her, a burly figure stood blocking her path!

It was indeed the Solar Flames.

Such a perfect opportunity, how could he miss it? To him, Su Yan was a formidable enemy, but so was this female cultivator from the Insect Race. After all, she was at the Peak Dao Fusion. If he missed this chance, it would take a lot more effort to kill her.

Thanks to Ning Gu, this opportunity was practically handed to him.

"You..." The female cultivator of the Insect Race was shocked. She certainly knew the power of Solar Flames, even at her peak, she had no confidence of winning against him, let alone in her weakened state.

Before she could finish her sentence, the attack of the Solar Flames had already enveloped her. She struggled to resist, but she was not his match.

On the other side, after personally witnessing Lu Ye being crushed under the power of his exotic treasure, Ning Gu showed a satisfied expression, quickly calling out to Junior Sister Shuang, "Let's go!"

He had fulfilled his promise, and now it was time to escape quickly.

The two swiftly darted away into the distance.

But just then, a sound like a tide came from beside their ears. Both Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang's faces changed, and before they could react, the place they were in transformed into an endless sea.

Of course, there was no sea in this stellar space fragment.

"An Illusory Realm!" Junior Sister Shuang's heart raced with alarm. This illusion was too real, and they hadn't even noticed when they fell victim to it.

The two immediately pushed their Mental Consciousness to the limit, guarding their minds.

Amid the rising tide, a crescent moon suddenly lifted from the sea, moonlight spilling like water, cool and clear.

Everything around them became incredibly sticky.

Ning Gu looked up sharply, only to see a petite silhouette playfully sitting on the rising crescent moon, looking at them with an innocent and mischievous smile!

Moonless!

Ning Gu's face turned extremely grim. "I have an agreement with the Sun Race, he has sworn an oath in the name of the Will of the Star Abyss. Do you dare to make a move at this moment and not care about his life or death?"

Moonless pulled down her lower eyelid and stuck out her tongue, making a face at him.

Ning Gu was about to explode with anger!

"Kill her!" Junior Sister Shuang knew they wouldn't be able to leave until they dealt with this little girl. As she spoke, her long sword shook, and her form suddenly scattered into countless sword lights, attacking Moonless.

However, Junior Sister Shuang soon realized something was wrong. Under the strange erosion of the moonlight, her speed became unbelievably slow.

At this moment, she was like an ordinary person trapped in a quagmire, her movements sluggish.

Not only her, but Ning Gu as well, and his condition was even worse.

Junior Sister Shuang's heart sank to the bottom...

If they hadn't been injured before, the two of them could possibly break through this illusion with their combined strength, but they were both severely wounded, and this Illusory Realm focused on binding enemies, making it hard for them to perform.

After much effort, the two gradually approached Moonless sitting on the crescent moon.

Moonless showed no fear; she remained seated on the crescent moon, her smile unchanged.

Suddenly, a ripple passed by her side, revealing the massive form of Solar Flames, his body still stained with some blood.

In this short time, he had already dealt with that female cultivator of the Insect Race!

Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang, who were rushing to kill Moonless, couldn't help but pause.

Solar Flames had a smiling face, looking quite pleased, as he looked at Ning Gu as if he were an old friend he hadn't seen in a long time. "What a coincidence, meeting again!"

Ning Gu's face darkened like a pot bottom. "You vowed in the name of the Will of the Star Abyss. Acting like this, are you not afraid of backlash?"

Solar Flames continued smiling. "That's why I kept my promise and spared you last time!"

Ning Gu's eyelids twitched wildly.

Last time? That was merely ten breaths ago! You call that last time?

But he knew in his heart, even if Solar Flames was playing semantics, strictly speaking, he hadn't violated his oath.

So there was no need to worry about backlash.

"Well, enough chit-chat, please be on your way!" Solar Flames spoke softly.

Though he was confident that even if he spared Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang, he could still track them down and kill them, it would undoubtedly be more troublesome.

Why wait when he could deal with them directly now?

Once he dealt with these two, most of his formidable enemies would be cleared. Now, only one sludge star beast, one Su Yan, and one Blood Race remained.

The originally chaotic situation was gradually becoming clear. In his heart, Solar Flames was grateful to Ning Gu. Had it not been for him using the exotic treasure, Lu Ye and that female cultivator of the Insect Race wouldn't have been so easily killed.

Otherwise, he and Moonless would have some trouble dealing with them one by one.

To express his gratitude, Solar Flames decided to personally escort Ning Gu on his journey!

His form flickered, quickly moving before Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang, delivering a violent punch.

In the Illusory Realm, Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang were already sluggish in their movements and severely injured. How could they be a match for Solar Flames, even if he was outnumbered one against two?

Death awaited the two of them.
