Chapter 2195: Chapter 2195: Sixteen-Winged Angel
"A Sixteen-Winged Angel?" When Ye Haochuan finally saw Xierui’s current form clearly, his pupils shrank uncontrollably, shock roaring through his heart.
Back then, Xu Linglan had said that Director Tru was the only Eight-Winged Angel capable of bearing the might of a Sixteen-Winged Angel.
No one knew what kind of change Xierui had gone through, that she could actually withstand it too, and even successfully transform into a Sixteen-Winged Angel.
Ye Haochuan’s thoughts sank; he tried hard to raise the Halberd of Heaven and Earth, but the movement tugged at his injuries and made him spray out a mouthful of fresh blood instead.
After the Shadowless Smoke Spirit was shattered, he truly no longer had the slightest strength to resist.
He was unwilling, he refused to just sit here and wait for death!
"Heavenly Eye, Sky-Burning!"
Ye Haochuan’s eyes instantly turned blue, but on that Eight-Winged Angel’s body, only a tiny wisp of flame rose up.
"You said the one you chose could help you regain your former glory. Indeed, this brat has already made me look at him in a new light many times. Give him some more time and maybe you really would succeed."
The hatred in Xierui’s eyes was gone; she looked calmly at Ye Haochuan, lips slightly parted like shell teeth: "But your mistake was not stopping him from provoking me. Even though you and I go way back, this time I absolutely won’t let you off lightly!"
Ye Haochuan felt the blue shadow in his eyes tremble slightly, and a voice came from within: "Do you really have to drive us to death?"
"Last time, I already spared him once for your sake. But he didn’t know what was good for him and turned the Holy See I painstakingly arranged upside down!"
Xierui snorted coldly: "You bastard, helping a tyrant do evil—you ought to suffer the corresponding punishment too!"
The blue eyes fell silent.
The next instant, a surge of Flower Energy poured out from Ye Haochuan’s eyes, gradually flooding through his whole body.
"Still trying to resist?" Xierui’s figure instantly appeared in front of Ye Haochuan, a mocking smile at the corner of her mouth.
Ye Haochuan had just recovered a trace of Flower Energy when the Halberd of Heaven and Earth howled out.
But before the Halberd of Heaven and Earth could even touch Xierui, her right hand had already clamped fiercely around his neck, flinging him straight down into the ground, blasting out a terrifying pit that cracked inch by inch from within.
Ye Haochuan’s eyes rolled white, his limbs trembled uncontrollably, and blood kept pouring out of his mouth.
But very quickly, he forced himself to stay conscious, staggered to his feet, and let out a roar as he charged at Xierui again.
He was unwilling; after fighting to this extent, he was unwilling to die like this.
He had to beat down everyone in front of him, rescue his son, then take his son back to find Jiang Shuying, find Xiao Haimei, find Long Keyue, find all of his women.
Bang~
Xierui casually dodged Ye Haochuan’s punch and kicked him flying with one blow.
Ye Haochuan grew even weaker, but still forced himself to stand up and attack again.
After several exchanges, Xierui was starting to look somewhat impatient.
"What an annoying guy, just like that Blue Ghost! Forget it, I’ll kill you first, then go settle accounts with that Blue Ghost!"
Xierui snorted softly, then flicked her hand, and another half-black, half-white Light Sword shot out, stabbing straight toward Ye Haochuan’s chest.
Ye Haochuan clenched his steel teeth so hard they almost shattered; knowing he was no match, he still poured everything into blocking it.
Just then, he suddenly felt the sky darken over his head as a massive figure swept past, knocking that black-and-white sword flying in an instant.
The next moment, a smaller figure darted over, grabbing Ye Haochuan to support him, asking anxiously, "Bad guy, are you okay?"
When Ye Haochuan saw who it was, his eyes went wide, horror in his voice: "Xu Lingfeng? Weren’t you dead?"
"Don’t say so much, hurry and come with me!" Xu Lingfeng grabbed Ye Haochuan and gave a powerful leap, landing on the huge figure beside them.
That gigantic figure was precisely the Skysea Green Bird with wings sprouting from its back.
At this moment, the Skysea Green Bird had clearly fused even more completely with the Roc Double Wings, evolving further down the path of a Giant Bird; even its aura had risen from True Immortal Mid-Stage to True Immortal Late Stage.
After the two of them leaped onto its back, its wings flapped once, a wild gale instantly shredding all the vegetation around them, and in the next heartbeat the Skysea Green Bird had already appeared at the horizon.
Xierui watched silently, letting out a disdainful snort from the corner of her mouth, then simply gave her wings a flap and her body vanished on the spot.
Seeing they had instantly flown far from the Heart of the Earth Island, Xu Lingfeng was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when she suddenly noticed Xierui’s figure had already appeared before her, giving her a huge fright.
"If even this was enough for you to escape, wouldn’t I lose face all the way back to my grandma’s house?" Xierui snorted lightly as she slowly stepped forward.
Each step looked very gentle, but every time she set her foot down, the Skysea Green Bird beneath them shuddered violently. After just a few steps, the Skysea Green Bird spat out a huge mouthful of blood and its aura withered to the extreme.
"A Sixteen-Winged Angel really is terrifying!"
Leaving those words behind, the Skysea Green Bird’s body dropped straight down into the sea, throwing up a monstrous wave.
"How is this possible?" Xu Lingfeng was completely dumbfounded.
In her eyes, after its recent breakthrough the Skysea Green Bird should already be the most powerful existence in this world. Forget one Xierui, even sweeping through the entire Holy See shouldn’t have been a problem.
Before rescuing Ye Haochuan, she’d wanted the Skysea Green Bird to wipe out the entire Holy See. But after it saw Xierui’s current state, it was somewhat shaken, and had only agreed to rescue Ye Haochuan.
Xu Lingfeng had thought it was just the Skysea Green Bird unwilling to help. She hadn’t expected the current Xierui to be even more terrifying than the bird had described, settling the Skysea Green Bird in the blink of an eye.
A powerhouse at this level had completely surpassed the limits of what she could imagine.
Xierui ignored her, instead looking at Ye Haochuan with a half-smile: "You brat really have good luck with women. The woman under the Divine Pillar and this one in front of you are both peerless beauties. Seems even the woman I’ve possessed has had some dealings with you."
"I wonder, if I let this woman die slowly in front of you, will it make you wish you were dead?"
"Don’t!" Ye Haochuan suddenly had a bad premonition and tried to stop her.
Unfortunately, he was still too slow. Xierui’s big hand shot out, and her right hand was already clamped around Xu Lingfeng’s neck.
Ye Haochuan’s eyes almost split, and he charged up regardless of anything.
The next moment, Xierui’s left hand was already locked around Ye Haochuan’s neck, making it look like he had taken the initiative to offer his throat to her.
Ye Haochuan struggled with all his might, but he didn’t have the slightest strength to resist.
"You should have thought of this outcome the moment you chose to stand against the Holy See!"
Xierui snorted, then cackled strangely: "Fine, since you’re so reluctant to let her die first, I’ll be merciful and grant your wish—let you die together!"
With that, she tightened both hands at the same time.
In an instant, Ye Haochuan felt his breath cut off and his world spin into darkness.
Just then, a boundless radiance suddenly burst forth from Ye Haochuan’s chest, so bright no one could keep their eyes open. Even someone as overbearing as Xierui was forced to let Ye Haochuan go and back away rapidly.
When the light faded, an incomparable beauty like a Nine Heavens Fairy hovered quietly in midair.
As her tightly closed eyes slowly opened, a surge of dread rose instantly in the hearts of everyone present.
Even the countless Demon Beasts in the sea below surfaced in that instant, assuming postures of worship.
