Chapter 1479 - 1478: The Arrival of a Formidable Enemy

Chapter 1479: Chapter 1478: The Arrival of a Formidable Enemy

Everyone stared blankly at the scene before them, as if the world had lost its voice.

No one expected that this battle would end with such a result.

After Ling Chen defeated Shang Quan Yi Xin, his servant Hong Ye thwarted Fengmo Tianchuan. The two major Yingzhou leaders, first-rate experts, were successively defeated here, returning in disgrace.

"Damn it!"

Fengmo Tianchuan’s face was as dark as it could be. Being blocked by the little Hong Ye was unbearable for him. He spat out another mouthful of blood and glared at the Fengmo clan’s area, shouting fiercely at Fengmo Taiyi and Fengmo Thirteen: "What are you waiting for? Attack! Bloodbath the Wugong family! Capture Ling Chen and Hong Ye alive!"

"Yes!"

The Fengmo clan’s experts immediately showed a fierce glint in their eyes. Although they had lost Fengmo Tianchuan and Fengmo Rizang, their strength still far surpassed the Wugong family. If a fight broke out, their odds seemed higher!

Boom!

However, at this moment, a thunderous sound suddenly resonated from the distant sky. Everyone looked up, only to see flying battleships approaching from beyond San Chuan Island, flags emblazoned with the Izumo Shrine!

"Izumo Shrine’s forces?"

Wugong Shou He’s face turned ugly. Why were people from Izumo Shrine here now? The Wugong family and Izumo Shrine had never had any dealings; their arrival was likely more foe than friend!

"What’s Izumo Shrine doing here?"

Fengmo Tianchuan’s expression changed; the appearance of Izumo Shrine at this moment was not good news.

On the flying battleships, the figure of Heize Seimei stood at the forefront of the crowd, looking at the chaotic scene below on San Chuan Island, his face slowly forming a smile.

"Is the battle over? Seems we arrived just in time..."

Heize Seimei had undoubtedly come for Ling Chen and Hong Ye, caring little about what fight had transpired here.

The result was what mattered.

"Heize Seimei is here!"

Hong Ye’s pretty face was suddenly filled with a hint of apprehension. As a shrine maiden of Izumo Shrine, she knew Heize Seimei’s strength well; their arrival was most likely because of her and Ling Chen!

Both she and Ling Chen were now heavily wounded from the recent battle, which was bad news!

Watching Heize Seimei and Tu Yumen descend from the flying battleships, followed by a large group of Izumo Shrine priests and shrine maidens, each one was strong.

Their lineup was far superior to either the Shangquan or Fengmo families!

"Hong Ye, upon seeing me, you should promptly return to your post and confess your sins,"

Heize Seimei’s gaze fell on Hong Ye, and his voice, slightly cold, rang out, with a hint of undeniable authority.

Upon hearing this, Hong Ye frowned slightly and then said indifferently, "I have already left Izumo Shrine. Now, I am just a regular maid and no longer a shrine maiden."

"Ridiculous!"

Beside Heize Seimei, Tu Yumen shouted angrily, staring fiercely at Hong Ye, "Do you even know what you’re saying? Izumo Shrine is not something you can leave at whim! Without Lord Kurozawa’s permission, you leaving the shrine is an act of betrayal, punishable by death!"

"Hong Ye, it’s not too late to find your way back. I can pardon you, and past grievances can be forgotten." Heize Seimei declared.

"Listen, Lord Kurozawa has forgiven you, Hong Ye. This is your last chance; don’t be foolish." Tu Yumen coldly urged.

"No need to waste your breath anymore."

Hong Ye’s beautiful eyes showed no ripples as she coldly replied, "I could never betray my master."

"You!"

Heize Seimei’s eyes grew dark, and the many Izumo Shrine experts were shocked. The Hong Ye they knew wouldn’t be so willing to serve under anyone; her loyalty to Ling Chen was baffling.

"If you’re so stubborn, don’t blame me for being merciless."

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and Heize Seimei’s hand suddenly raised. His figure abruptly moved towards Hong Ye, and at the same time, a monstrous black air emanated from behind him, shrouding the entire sky. A terrifying Green Faced Ghost God climbed out from the darkness, raising its massive green ghost hand fiercely towards Hong Ye and Ling Chen.

Heize Seimei’s attack was a lethal move; even before the Green Faced Ghost God reached them, a monstrous black storm had already swept in, enveloping Ling Chen and Hong Ye.

The terrifying storm swept them away; Ling Chen’s body was sent flying. He drew the Thunder Sound Sword from his waist and stabbed it fiercely into the ground, carving a deep scar into the earth.

However, Heize Seimei’s attention was clearly not on Ling Chen for the moment, as in his eyes, the Bone Woman within Hong Ye was his top priority target. The Bone Woman and the Eight-chi Kongo Jade held more significance to him than even the legacy of Cloud Monarch!

Yet, after her battle with Fengmo Tianchuan, Hong Ye’s physical condition was noticeably low, facing Heize Seimei’s fierce assault. She could only forcefully stir her exhausted body to summon the Bone Woman’s powers again, with Mori White Flames billowing from her. Amidst these flames appeared a deadly pale yet stunning woman, contrasting sharply with the terrifying Green Faced Ghost.

"This... is this another Ghost God?"

The group from Izumo Shrine, upon glimpsing the Bone Woman, were equally shocked. They could never have imagined that Hong Ye housed such a powerful Ghost God within her!

The aura emitted by this Ghost God was not at all inferior to their Izumo Shrine’s Green-Faced Deity, even more noble!

"So it really is the Bone Woman!"

As the Bone Woman manifested, a joyful look appeared on Heize Seimei’s old face. Before seeing the Bone Woman, everything was speculation; he couldn’t quite believe Hong Ye’s capability to host such a powerful Ghost God. But now, all doubts were dispelled, as the Ghost God stood before him!
