Chapter 2194: Chapter 2194: Thank You, Yige!
The depletion of the Green Jade Sword is something Ye Haochuan can hardly bear; if not for the last shred of belief supporting him, Ye Haochuan would have long since fallen asleep.
He never expected that Xierui would escape at the last moment, causing the fruits of his hard labor to instantly vanish into thin air.
At this moment, he was already at the end of his rope; even a child without the strength to truss a chicken could kill him.
Such an ending is truly maddening!
"No, I don’t want to die!"
The closer the threat of death approached, the more Ye Haochuan’s heart suddenly let out a roar.
He did not want to die, and he must not die!
Behind him, there are too many responsibilities he bears!
Many wives are waiting for him to return safely, kind parents waiting for him to return to fulfill his filial duties, and children...
Yes, and Little Yishu, who is still in Xierui’s hands. If Xierui kills him, Little Yishu will also be unable to escape disaster.
As a father, he cannot allow his son to be killed while still in swaddling.
"It’s not allowed, absolutely not allowed!"
Not knowing where the strength came from, Ye Haochuan let out a roar, struggled a few times, and supported himself upright.
Xierui was bewildered; she did not know what kind of force could allow Ye Haochuan to stand up in such a condition.
She bit her silver teeth, glared at Ye Haochuan with eyes already bloodshot, and then suddenly sprinted forward like a leopard, the sharp lance in her hand shimmering coldly, shocking the soul.
She had already fallen into madness, willing to squeeze out the last bit of potential from her body to completely kill Ye Haochuan.
Ye Haochuan stood in place, his body trembling, the Halberd of Heaven and Earth in his hand heavy as a thousand pounds; he had no chance of lifting it, barely able to move it an inch.
Xierui’s figure drew nearer, the murderous intent permeating the air, cooling everything around.
"Die!"
Xierui snarled, a mist of blood spraying, not caring at all, her lance, like a poison needle on a bee’s tail, directly aimed at Ye Haochuan’s heart.
With danger closing in, Ye Haochuan’s eyes suddenly shone with brilliance, silently stamping his foot, and the Taichi Spirit Realm instantly expanded.
Xierui’s figure slightly paused, her attack slowed.
But it was evident that the weakening was not significant, and extremely unstable, even the shadowy outlines of the Taichi Spirit Realm’s runes became indistinct.
"Fool, even if you want to make a last-ditch struggle, you should find a better way, right?" Xierui sneered, the lance speeding up instead of slowing down.
Ye Haochuan remained expressionless, staring fixedly at the tip of the lance.
Just as the lance was about to pierce Ye Haochuan’s body, a swirl of uncanny wind suddenly arose, pulling Ye Haochuan rapidly backward.
Sss~
The lance tip still pierced flesh, only changing from the original heart position to the center of the chest.
Luckily, the uncanny wind held Xierui back, preventing Ye Haochuan from being skewered like a roasting grasshopper.
Roar~
The uncanny wind gathered into a Soul Beast with a lion’s head and a dog’s body, suddenly enraged, roaring and rushing toward Xierui, engaging her in battle.
Ye Haochuan’s injuries worsened, the last bit of strength he mustered dissipating suddenly, stumbling several steps, leaning against a large rock, gasping for air.
At this moment, he lacked even the strength to retrieve a Pill from his ring, let alone to stop the bleeding.
Soon, blood soaked through his clothes, dripping ominously onto the ground.
He seemed unconcerned with these, desperately maintaining the operation of the Taichi Domain.
Taichi Domain is currently the only combat power he can exercise; he just needs to ensure its existence, then the Shadowless Smoke Spirit can operate independently to attack Xierui.
"Get lost!" In the battle, Xierui fell into infinite anger, rampaging like a madwoman toward Ye Haochuan’s direction, ignoring the Smoke Soul’s attacks countless times.
Such madness indeed proved effective; within a few moments, she shortened the distance to Ye Haochuan to the extreme.
"Die!" Xierui’s eyes showed madness, recklessly thrusting the lance toward Ye Haochuan.
During today’s battle, Xierui had exclaimed this countless times, but this time, it was Ye Haochuan’s closest brush with death.
The lance carried all Xierui’s strength, arriving in an instant, Ye Haochuan was defenseless, unable to do anything as the lance pierced his chest, aiming at his heart.
Murderous aura permeated the lance tip, making Ye Haochuan feel as though he could already see the rising essence of death.
Just as the lance tip touched Ye Haochuan’s heart, numerous roots suddenly surged around his heart, securely wrapping and restraining the lance tip, preventing it from advancing a single step.
"This is impossible..." Xierui was immediately stunned, before she could figure it out, the uncanny wind transformed by the Smoke Soul swept over her entire body.
She gave everything she had to resist, ultimately prevented the Smoke Soul from shredding her into pieces, but her delicate skin became a bloody mess, with not a single unmarred piece.
Thud~
Xierui was thrown, fiercely colliding with the Divine Pillar, causing it to resonate with a deathly hum.
She had finally exhausted all her strength, now unable to move a single inch, merely staring silently at Ye Haochuan, pondering something unknown.
The Smoke Soul did not pursue, instead looked at Ye Haochuan with deep concern, the lance remaining lodged in Ye Haochuan’s chest, blood gushing forth, a sight that chilled the heart.
Ye Haochuan shook his head with difficulty, indicating he was fine, but the turmoil within his chest was slow to settle.
"Thank you, Yige!" Ye Haochuan murmured silently in his heart.
Those roots were undoubtedly sent by Yige, who had been attached to Ye Haochuan’s heart for so long without much movement, yet at this crucial moment, unexpectedly to shield him from the most lethal blow.
"Kill!" Ye Haochuan’s gaze remained fixed on Xierui, forcing out a single word from his mouth.
The Shadowless Smoke Spirit understood, coldly staring at Xierui.
Just now, under its protection, Xierui still nearly killed Ye Haochuan, causing it immense fury; after a roar, it charged at Xierui in a frenzy, seemingly wanting to crush her head like a rotten watermelon.
"Hahaha..."
Xierui suddenly laughed maniacally, her laughter growing louder and more eerie, making one’s scalp tingle.
"Ye Haochuan, Good Heavens are on my side; in the end, the one who dies will be you after all!"
"Playing tricks!" The Smoke Soul scoffed disdainfully, its gathered beast claw already striking down.
Yet at this moment, the Divine Pillar unexpectedly emitted black and white glows, instantly enveloping Xierui.
The Smoke Soul was caught off guard and was also tainted by this light.
In shock, it sought to flee, but the light’s quick intrusion instantly encased it, crushing it to powder.
In the next moment, the light receded, and Xierui’s figure was revealed once more.
But now, she was no longer a wounded mess, instead spirited and majestic, even more powerful than before the battle.
On her flanks, eight black wings on the left, eight white wings on the right, projecting an extraordinary aura.
