Chapter 1268 The Mantis Stalks the Cicada, Unaware of the Oriole Behind
The sky collapsed and space distorted!
Two top-level powerhouses fought desperately at this moment, both displaying their terrifying strength.
This was different from the battle with Chen Beixuan just now. Although Chen Beixuan hated Ye Xuan for deceiving him, both sides actually maintained a certain restraint during their fight, not reaching the point of life and death.
However,
Now with the Linyuan Demon Lord’s forceful arrival, his purpose was very simple—to kill Ye Xuan today!
“Whoosh~”
The flags on the eerie immortal ship fluttered in the wind,
More than a dozen terrifying alien powerhouses stared with blood-red eyes, coldly looking down at everyone present,
An extremely horrifying pressure lingered in everyone’s hearts, preventing them from acting rashly!
After experiencing the previous battle,
Both the Nine Heavens Ten Earths and the several divine mountains were somewhat exhausted, and the sudden arrival of the alien race instantly made people think about the cause and effect of the situation!
That ancient one from North God Mountain intentionally lured Lin Feng here,
Was it all for this moment?
The alien race knew of Ye Xuan’s formidable power, so they first let the two sides fight to the death, aiming to deplete Ye Xuan’s strength. Now at the critical moment, like a mantis catching a cicada unaware of the oriole behind, they appeared to kill Ye Xuan!
In other words,
North God Mountain had been infiltrated by the alien race!!
“Swoosh~”
Everyone was horrified upon reflection, shifting their gazes toward the North God Mountain people, with meaningful looks!
At this moment,
Extreme North Emperor and many other North God Mountain powerhouses frowned deeply,
Extreme North Emperor suddenly remembered that his grand-uncle had asked him to expel Ye Xuan earlier, but he hadn’t agreed to his grand-uncle’s request out of respect for North God Lord’s face, plus Ye Xuan was indeed a good person, and being on good terms with him had all benefits and no drawbacks!
“North God Lord truly played the role of a surface brother flawlessly!”
Someone sneered in the shadows.
As soon as these words were spoken,
Others also began to speak up, their words filled with mockery.
After all, who in the world didn’t know that Ye Xuan was on good terms with North God Mountain, especially with North God Lord, who could almost be called his closest friend!
Now Ye Xuan was in imminent danger, yet it was the people of North God Mountain who had conspired with the alien race!
“Boom!”
Ye Xuan was forced to retreat repeatedly by Linyuan Demon Lord’s attack!
At this moment, his tall figure was already covered in blood, his expression frighteningly cold, especially those eyes that carried no emotion whatsoever, like a sacred spirit devoid of humanity!
Another heavy blow!
Ye Xuan knelt on one knee, breathing heavily. His merciless gaze finally moved toward North God Lord. Although he said nothing, it made North God Lord’s heart contract!
Without a doubt,
Ye Xuan now also suspected that North God Lord had betrayed him!
If not for the fierce battle with Chen Beixuan, he would never have fallen into such a predicament. And why had he fought with Chen Beixuan? It was to help contain the threat for North God Mountain!
Thinking of this,
Ye Xuan’s expression grew even colder.
“Brother Ye, I didn’t! I didn’t know…”
North God Lord hurriedly explained!
During the previous battle with the Blue Lotus Empress, North God Lord had also been seriously injured, but now to prove his words, after a moment of inner struggle, his body suddenly burst with intense divine light, then he flew up, wanting to help Ye Xuan block the Linyuan Demon Lord!
But the next moment.
“Swoosh~”
A terrifying powerhouse from the alien race appeared instantly, blocking him.
This terrifying being clearly held a high position among the alien race, possibly a future generation’s Demon Emperor, with murderous aura soaring from his body, covered in black flames, but with blood-red eyes, coldly staring at North God Lord, saying:
“North God Lord, you’ve crossed the line!”
“Get out of my way!”
North God Lord roared.
However, how could he, being severely injured, possibly be a match for the enemy?
After a brief exchange, North God Lord fell from the sky, his body covered in wounds, deep enough to see bone, horrifying to behold!
Fortunately,
This Demon Emperor didn’t seem intent on killing North God Lord. After repelling him, he stopped attacking and hovered below the battlefield, coldly scanning the scene, saying in an indifferent voice:
“Today’s matter has nothing to do with the rest of you. Our race only seeks to kill Ye Xuan. Anyone who dares to interfere will be regarded as our enemy and killed as well!”
Upon hearing this,
Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief!
If they were only targeting Ye Xuan, then they had no need to worry. Besides, Ye Xuan had always been aloof and rarely associated with others. Even if he were killed, no one would really care!
“Respected elders, please help Brother Ye escape this predicament!”
North God Lord’s face was pale, knowing that his power alone was insufficient to fight against the alien powerhouses, so he immediately turned his pleading gaze toward Extreme North Emperor and the others!
Extreme North Emperor showed a troubled expression.
Regarding Ye Xuan, he had indeed been on good terms with them before, and this time he had also stood on North God Mountain’s side. But now that the alien race had made such a declaration, would they really fight the alien race for an outsider?
This was clearly a losing proposition!
“Elder! Brother Ye is my only close friend!”
North God Lord growled.
Extreme North Emperor was about to speak when suddenly the communication talisman on his body emitted a faint light. It was his grand-uncle sending a message. His grand-uncle’s meaning was simple.
Today’s events were all planned by him, specifically to help the alien race kill Ye Xuan, and they should not interfere!
Extreme North Emperor put down the talisman, exhaled deeply, and slowly said:
“In this matter, we cannot help! You should stop as well, lest you find yourself trapped in this quagmire!”
“What? Ye Xuan is in this situation because he was helping us!”
North God Lord was incredulous, as if struck by lightning, standing there in shock!
“No need for further words. Don’t accuse us of being heartless. In today’s situation, not just our North God Mountain, but how many in the world would be willing to interfere?”
Extreme North Emperor’s expression was cold as he continued:
“The path of cultivation requires cutting off emotions and ties. Whether Ye Xuan lives or dies is his own fate! Besides, if you hadn’t stepped in back then to resolve his grudge with West God Mountain, would he have helped you today? Consider this exchange settled.”
“Haha! Well said, Extreme North Emperor…”
West God Lord, who had always had a grudge against Ye Xuan, couldn’t help but laugh loudly.
He stared intently at the battlefield above, seeing the usually proud Ye Xuan now in such a miserable state. He felt extremely pleased. If conditions had allowed, he would have even wanted to help Linyuan Demon Lord attack Ye Xuan, ending the battle sooner and sending Ye Xuan to his death!
After their words,
North God Lord finally fell silent. He looked at Ye Xuan with a heavy heart and sighed deeply.
In fact,
While entangled in battle with Linyuan Demon Lord, Ye Xuan had also been aware of everything happening here. When he saw North God Lord remain silent, his cold lips actually curved into a smile, seemingly bitter, yet also self-mocking!
