Ye Xiao stood on top of the mountain, watching the beasts disappearing into the forests and mountains. He felt helpless but relieved.
The beasts ran to Ye Xiao and kowtowed to him. After that, led by their kings, they ran into the mountains, howling along the way…
“Guys, protect yourselves. Maybe we will meet again someday.” Ye Xiao’s mind power spread out and delivered the message in three thousand miles. “When I meet you again, I hope you have become kings!”
The beasts stopped and looked back at the man in white clothes on the mountain and then ran away again…
Ye Xiao was filled with anger when fighting this tragic battle, so he set millions of beasts free. Over a hundred thousand of the beasts died in the battle. Less than one thousand beasts decided to return to the Mountain of All Medicines after it was finished.
The other beasts all chose to return to the wild world to get their freedom.
When the beasts were gone, Ye Xiao checked on the Mountain of All Medicines. He was surprised that those who chose to stay were mostly from the seventh floor.
Two Silver Wolves were as powerful as level-eight Immortality Stage cultivators. They were a couple, and they both chose to stay with Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao didn’t understand, so he sent Erhuo to ask for the reason. The answer made him lost in silence for a long time.
“We want to be strong, not free. Without absolute power, there won’t be true freedom. We chose to stay in the Mountain of All Medicines because we would improve much faster here.”
“We have chosen to stay. When we are powerful enough, we will ask for permission to leave.”
The wolf’s word kept Ye Xiao in thought.
‘Without absolute power, there won’t be true freedom!’
Even wolves knew it but most of the people didn’t!
…
“Let’s return!”
Ye Xiao looked at his men, who were severely injured. He didn’t feel relieved about that.
The Monarch’s Hall had to take a long time off after this.
Ye Xiao got nobody to use again!
As he checked on his men, most of the people were severely injured. No matter how powerful Ye Xiao was, he couldn’t cure them in a short time.
…
“Stay and rest as long as you can. When you feel better, keep training. You must improve two levels at least, or you will not be allowed to leave the Monarch’s Hall. Violate my rules, then you are no longer one of us!”
Ye Xiao gave the order.
…
The mountain where they stayed at the end of the war became a grave.
“People of the Monarch’s Hall will always be monarchs!”
“Ye Xiao builds this monument to the brothers who died protecting the Monarch’s Hall!”
“Life or death, the monument shined everywhere. We will avenge you, brothers!”
The golden words appeared in the air and shined upon the mountains around.
Whoever saw the image of the words could feel the killing intent!
…
The war between the Monarch’s Hall and the Hall of Returning Nature shocked the entire Limitless Ocean.
Those who heard the news were all astonished.
In an old dirty tent somewhere in the Limitless Ocean.
Ye Changqing’s face was pale. He crazily shouted, “How is that possible? Impossible!”
He hated Ye Xiao so much. When he knew the war began, he chose to tolerate the humiliation to go near the battlefield.
He wanted to hear the news about Ye Xiao’s failure as soon as possible!
However, it turned out to be a victory for the Monarch’s Hall and Ye Xiao!
Ye Changqing almost went crazy as he heard the unexpected news after waiting for three months.
“Puff!”
A big foot stamped the musty bun in Ye Changqing’s hand on the floor. A tall guy smiled and said, “What is it? Are you disappointed? Young Master Changqing? Hah hah…”
Zhao Yi was dull. He was powerless, and he didn’t notice Ye Changqing being humiliated like that. He stared at the bun on the floor…
A second later, Zhao Yi dashed over to the musty bun with dirt…
“That is mine!” Ye Changqing shouted and jumped over.
The two men got down on the wet floor, fighting for the stamped and musty bun. Everything they cared about was food, nothing else…
Finally, Ye Changqing took half of the bun and hastily swallowed it with mud. He kept chewing hard, and the sands in the mud cracked his teeth and made an unpleasant sound…
Zhao Yi was swallowing the other half…
“Hah hah…” A tall man in yellow clothes, who was in charge of watching the two men, laughed and said, “Brothers, do you see this? These two beggars are your enemies! Hah hah hah… You can rest now…
“There is no peace for these two bastards though!
“Hah hah hah… I am off now. Time to hand it over to others…”
The man laughed wildly and left.
A few others were waiting for him to leave…
Ye Changqing and Zhao Yi were despairing…
The next moment, Zhao Yi suddenly went crazy. He gritted his teeth and stared at Ye Changqing. Suddenly, he jumped over and choked Ye Changqing’s neck. He shouted like a mad man, “It was you! You did this! You bastard! You f*cking useless prick! You did this to me… You son of a b*tch! You coward! F*cking trash…”
Ye Changqing’s face turned purple. He panicked and tried to get help. “Help… Help…” He waved one of his hands and grabbed Zhao Yi’s hairs…
Zhao Yi felt the pain and let go of his hand. The two of them fought on the muddy ground…
A few tall men flew over from somewhere, holding their arms and watching these two men fighting with disdain in their eyes.
Zhao Yi got up and sat on Ye Changqing. Some of his hairs were ripped off. He grabbed Ye Changqing’s neck as hard as he could. The fingers had deeply gotten into Ye Changqing’s throat…
Ye Changqing’s eyes rolled aside. His hands were tightly grabbing Zhao Yi’s hands. He tried so hard to get away but he couldn’t. Finally, he was losing consciousness…
The tall men usually should have stopped them…
However, not this time, they didn’t.
They sneered while watching the two men fighting.
“It is an order that we show mercy to the Heaven’s Leaf. There is no need to keep torturing the man anymore!”
Ye Changqing’s neck was cracking, and finally, he stopped breathing. His eyes were still staring at the sky, but his eyes were hollow…
Somebody drew out the sword and chopped off Zhao Yi’s head!
These two men had been humiliated, played around, teased, and tortured. Finally, their lives ended.
Nobody had thought they would die this way.
The tall men stood there for a while and then finally left.
The crows in the sky were hovering in the sky.
The two corpses lay on the ground weirdly…
After a while…
A man in cyan clothes appeared. He stared at the corpses and sighed.
“Shangguan Lingxiao is a good man. He stopped.” The man in cyan clothes waved one hand and took away Ye Changqing and Zhao Yi’s dead bodies. “If they kept humiliating these two longer, somebody is going to be really angry. He was one of the Ye Clan after all. Nobody gets to humiliate our people too much!
“It is the end. Ye Changqing had paid his debt. However, the Heaven’s Leaf will need an explanation from the Brotherhood Alliance.”
The man flashed and then disappeared…
…
“How is it possible?”
The real Master Yunduan, Ye Yunduan, stared at the distance for a long time. He wasn’t able to accept it yet.
The seven old masters were with him. The old masters seemed to be dull, but in fact, they were staring at Ye Yunduan.
Ye Yunduan was blank.
He looked into the air.
He held his breath.
His eyes were flickering…
The seven old masters saw everything.
They didn’t move, but their minds were busy. They tried to figure out what Ye Yunduan was thinking.
Ye Yunduan’s reaction only lasted for a few seconds.
In the seven cunning old foxes’ eyes, it was long enough to tell them everything they wanted to know.
Ye Yunduan was surprised, shocked, astonished… That was reasonable. It was surprising news he heard.
After that, he was a bit lost and a little jealous.
The old men saw everything, so they sighed.
When the war started, the old masters thought about going to support the Monarch’s Hall. Ye Yunduan didn’t stop them. In fact, he agreed with them.
When the seven clans were ready to go, the Monarch’s Hall refused their support.
“It is our own business. If you join the battle, it will become complicated!”
The Monarch’s Hall insisted not to have their support. The seven old masters knew that it was protecting the Seven Golden Lotuses. If the seven clans joined the battle, it wasn’t simply a war between two forces anymore.
The entire Limitless Ocean would be at war.
The Hall of Returning Nature wasn’t just some normal organization. The seven clans had the Heaven’s Leaf to get their backs. However, the Hall of Returning Nature had the West Sky King. If the Hall of Returning Nature lost the fight against the seven clans, the West Sky force would come and join the battle soon. The Hall of Returning Nature definitely would get support.
The Hall of Returning Nature was using armors and weapons from a royal army, especially the God Slaughter Arrow.
If the royal force got involved, it would become a war that involved the whole world.
Even the Heaven’s Leaf and the Seven Golden Lotuses couldn’t be sure to defeat the royal force of a Sky King unless the seven great ancestors came out to fight too.
In fact, even if the great ancestors joined the fight, the war wouldn’t just end. The war in the Limitless Ocean would become the war of the world.
Nobody could take that responsibility.
The seven old masters weren’t happy about the Monarch’s Hall’s decision, but they had to accept it. They had been waiting for the message from the battlefield!
In the end, they couldn’t just sit and watch anymore. Each clan had prepared two thousand of their best men to rescue the Monarch’s Hall’s people.
They came up with an excuse.
‘We are just here to save lives, not to kill.’
‘We get the people we will save, and we leave immediately!’
‘The war itself doesn’t concern us, but we have to save lives.’
‘We owe the Monarch’s Hall so much. We have to repay the favor. It is reasonable and understandable that we have to save their lives.’
When the old masters were very close to the battlefield, Ye Xiao returned all of a sudden.
“Guys, please return. This is our own business. You can’t get involved. I will handle it.”
Ye Xiao looked pale. He looked at the clouds in the sky and said, “If we are going to die, I would have asked for your support. I won’t sacrifice my brothers just for my self-esteem.
“This is not our end.
“The Monarch’s Hall has lost a lot of men during the three months. It is true. However, this cruel battle is something we have to get through. It was unexpected that I had been absent, but it was also something we needed.”
Ye Xiao sounded casual. The seven old masters knew he was suppressing something in his heart.
“The Monarch’s Hall has become one.
“It is like an iron board, but it is not strong enough.
“This fight will push us to the end, and it will make us stronger. The Monarch’s Hall has lost a lot!
“But after this, the Monarch’s Hall will truly start to rise!
“Please, masters, I don’t need you yet!
“I can do it myself. I can save the day!”
After that, Ye Xiao became a long rainbow, moving toward the south.
The seven old masters were shocked.
