Chapter 53: Hong Ying Arrives!

Beneath that vast, dark mass of Shura Iron Cavalry.

Ye Qiubai's figure appeared profoundly lonely.

The General looked at Ye Qiubai, let out a cold snort, and said, "Now, who is left to protect you?"

Immediately, wielding the might of the Shura Iron Cavalry, he struck out with a palm!

That blood-colored palm print seemed to merge with the crimson killing intent of the Shura Iron Cavalry!

This strike seemed to transcend the level of the Water Overflow Realm!

And to break through the shackles of the Water Overflow Realm was to reach the so-called Qianyuan Realm!

What was Qianyuan?

It was a general term for an Emperor!

And those who entered the Four Domains Martial Rankings were, at the very minimum, of the Qianyuan Realm.

Clearly, the General intended to slay Ye Qiubai directly!

To eliminate any future troubles!

Watching this scene, Ye Qiubai's expression changed!

He could not withstand this palm strike unless he summoned the Qingyun Sword!

But what then, after summoning the Qingyun Sword?

He would have no possibility of escape.

However, even without it, he could not withstand it now.

Just as Ye Qiubai attempted to draw the Qingyun Sword, a jade pendant suddenly drifted out from his storage ring, floating before him!

It was the jade pendant Hong Ying had given him!

That massive, blood-red palm print struck against the jade pendant!

Instantly!

A phoenix mark appeared before the jade pendant!

A fire phoenix, its entire body engulfed in crimson flames, raised its head and let out a cry!

*Skree!*

The General's expression shifted!

That phoenix mark actually completely blocked his palm print!

The fire phoenix spread its wings and unleashed a wave of flame!

The aura within the flames was not inferior at all to that of a Qianyuan Realm expert!

It carried layers of flame intent!

Even Yun Jing, who was colliding in mid-air, and Eunuch Ming both looked down, a flash of astonishment crossing their faces.

Seeing this, Huang Tianming's expression also darkened.

He did not consider Ye Qiubai's background, for he had already investigated thoroughly.

A mere Ye family from the small Tianyuan City in the Southern Barbarian lands.

Though called one of the four great families, they lacked a single powerhouse from the Four Domains Martial Rankings; how strong could they truly be?

This jade pendant was likely a fortuitous encounter obtained by Ye Qiubai.

The General struck back in haste.

At the same time, the Shura Iron Cavalry behind him let out a collective roar, lining up like a city wall!

Their long spears thrust out in unison!

In an instant, the spear forces merged, forming a massive spear of killing intent that pierced toward the phoenix flames!

*Rumble!*

Two distinct zones formed in the sky!

On Ye Qiubai's side, it was a sea of fiery red, like a crimson purgatory!

On the other side, the Shura Iron Cavalry side.

Killing intent ran rampant, like a Shura blood prison!

As the two collided, the aftershocks of the battle erupted in all directions!

The surrounding people hurriedly retreated; Jian Chaomian and the others released spiritual qi for defense.

After a long while.

The aftershocks dissipated.

The jade pendant had vanished from before Ye Qiubai.

The Shura Iron Cavalry and the General still stood in the air, though their auras had slightly withered.

Seeing this, the General sneered, "What other tricks do you have left?"

On the high platform, Huang Tianming also issued an impatient command.

"Do not delay. Kill Ye Qiubai quickly!"

Beside him, Qin Tiannan's eyes were filled with anxiety, wondering if Ye Qiubai had any other means.

If not, he would likely face a grim fate today.

How could he explain this to Changsheng?

How could he face Changsheng with any dignity?

He had brought Ye Qiubai here, yet if he could not bring him back, Lu Changsheng would surely be extremely disappointed in him...

At this moment, Ye Qiubai looked coldly at the Shura Iron Cavalry above and put away the Dark Demon.

Seeing this, the General sneered, "What, giving up resistance?"

With that, the General waved his hand.

Instantly, the Shura Iron Cavalry in mid-air seemed to receive the order and charged toward Ye Qiubai!

A dark, dense mass, their killing intent gathered to form a blood shadow of a God of Slaughter, their momentum terrifying!

Seeing this, Ye Qiubai's hand moved toward his storage ring.

He intended to take out the Qingyun Sword!

The Qingyun Sword was his final resort.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiubai couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

I suppose I won't be able to go back to cook for Master anymore...

At that very moment!

A red light streaked across the sky!

On the other side, Eunuch Ming's face changed drastically. "Oh no!"

Just as he spoke!

A man holding a long spear charged into the midst of the Shura Iron Cavalry!

Instantly!

The spear forces formed the shape of a tornado!

Within that spear-force tornado, the intent of the spear permeated the air!

Nearly half of the Shura Iron Cavalry were directly shredded by this spear-force tornado!

The General was stunned at first, then abruptly turned his head!

Huang Tianming's eyes also stared fixedly at the spear-wielding man!

Just who was this divine being?!

To be able to instantly kill nearly half of the Shura Iron Cavalry?

Ye Qiubai was also stunned.

Then, a woman appeared by his side.

"Senior Brother, are you alright?"

Ye Qiubai looked closely and couldn't help but rejoice, "Junior Sister? Why are you here?"

The newcomer was none other than Hong Ying!

And the man who had charged into the Shura Iron Cavalry was, naturally, Yun Ming.

Currently, although Yun Ming's injuries had recovered, his realm was still sealed, leaving him at only the half-step Qianyuan stage.

However, with this realm, he faced no pressure in contending against the Shura Iron Cavalry.

Hong Ying looked around and said, "My business is finished, and I was already on my way here. But halfway through, I sensed the protective jade pendant I gave you shatter, so I sped up. Fortunately, I made it in time."

At this time, Yun Ming also returned to Hong Ying's side and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, how shall these people be handled? Please give your orders."

Hong Ying did not answer directly, but instead looked at Ye Qiubai beside her.

Clearly, she was asking for Ye Qiubai's opinion!

Seeing this, Yun Ming was startled in his heart.

The Majesty was actually asking for someone else's opinion?

Is this person the Majesty's Senior Brother?

He looked him up and down, but found nothing extraordinary.

Just a young man with decent talent.

Ye Qiubai looked toward the General and the others and said, "Leave them all here. I imagine the Sunset Dynasty will feel the sting quite deeply."

The Shura Iron Cavalry were the trump card of the Sunset Dynasty, and nearly half of the entire dynasty's Shura Iron Cavalry were present here.

Leaving them all here would naturally cause the Sunset Dynasty great pain.

After all, training a single Shura Iron Cavalry member required a massive amount of resources.

Hong Ying nodded and looked at Yun Ming.

Yun Ming naturally understood Hong Ying's meaning and turned to charge toward the Shura Iron Cavalry!

In an instant, spear intent filled the sky!

Cries of agony rang out incessantly!

In just a few breaths, the Shura Iron Cavalry here were wiped out!

Even the General did not last three rounds in Yun Ming's hands.

He became another soul fallen beneath Yun Ming's spear!

Each division of the Nine Heavens Department specialized in a different weapon, and Yun Ming was a master of the spear!

Watching this, Huang Tianming stared intensely at Hong Ying and asked in a heavy voice, "Who exactly are you?"

Hong Ying did not even spare him a glance.

She was the Empress; in her eyes, Huang Tianming was nothing more than an ant. Why should she lower herself to answer?
