In a fit of rage,
the spiritual power in her hand burned even more fiercely.
Lin Lang was about to set everything ablaze.
She fully exerted her spiritual power and thrust it out.
This time,
they were surely doomed.
On the light mirror, huge flames emerged.
The people below gave a faint smile.
It might be a pity to die here, and there might be regrets in life. However, at least they would have someone by their side when they died.
"Bang—"
As the flames spread,
a towering blue light shot up.
It transformed into a water dragon and tightly coiled around the blazing fire.
Lin Lang narrowed her eyes, and a more powerful spiritual power surged forward.
Appearing along with the ice - blue light pillar was a boy about sixteen years old.
The boy stepped on the water, wearing a white robe.
There was still panic on his face.
His chest heaved greatly due to the previous strenuous flight.
It was Ye Xingchen.
Lin Lang had met Ye Xingchen before.
Back then, he was the trump card secretly raised by the head of the Lin family on a small island, and he called the head of the Lin family his father.
At that time,
when Lin Lang first met Ye Xingchen, she thought this person was extraordinary. Although he was taciturn, he was very capable.
Now that they met again,
although there was no exchange of words between them, it was still obvious that, just like before, they didn't like each other at all.
As soon as Ye Xingchen appeared,
Du She below perked up.
Ye Xingchen was truly powerful, and there were still many secrets hidden in him that they didn't know.
When Kong Shishuang saw Ye Xingchen, the intense hostility in her eyes disappeared.
After their eyes met in the air, they just nodded slightly.
Ye Xingchen leaped and landed beside Du She.
He checked Xie An's injuries, his face showing concern.
"I'm fine. Don't worry about me." Du She tried to be brave but was met with Ye Xingchen's disapproval.
"I told you a long time ago that you should discuss everything with me before you act. Don't take risks on your own. But what did you do?"
Du She was stunned.
Ye Xingchen had never spoken to him in this tone before.
He knew that this time, Ye Xingchen must have been really frightened, so it was understandable for him to be angry.
"I know I was wrong."
Ye Xingchen sighed and quickly helped Du She treat his injuries.
"Thank you, Miss Kong."
In the air, Ye Xingchen, Xie An, and Kong Shishuang's eyes met briefly and then quickly shifted away.
Kong Shishuang said, "You're welcome. Anyway, Du She is a disciple who left my Yanyu Tower. He can be considered my senior brother. People from Yanyu Tower will never stand by and watch him in danger."
Du She said softly, "Thank you."
Kong Shishuang felt a bit awkward.
"I've already said you're welcome. Also, here's this for you." She threw the pill in her bosom towards Du She.
Under Ye Xingchen's gaze,
Kong Shishuang quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand. Over the years, I've let go of my feelings for Du She. What happened before was my own wishful thinking. I've seen things clearly now. I hope I won't disrupt your relationship."
Ye Xingchen was taken aback.
Du She covered his chest and smiled faintly.
At this moment, the scene seemed rather strange.
Lin Lang stretched out her hand. "Are you celebrating too early?"
"Ye Xingchen, I know your spiritual power and spiritual energy are good, but it's too wishful - thinking for you to save all these people from my hands."
Du She looked at Ye Xingchen and saw that there was not a trace of panic on his face.
"Did you bring reinforcements from Shui Yunsheng?"
Under everyone's gazes,
Kong Shishuang also asked nervously, "How many people did you bring?"
"I didn't bring anyone from Shui Yunsheng."
Everyone was shocked.
"If so, why were you so reckless to come here? If I'm gone from Shui Yunsheng, you can still take my place. We can't let those with ulterior motives seize it!"
Du She was so angry that he was out of breath.
Ye Xingchen quickly helped him soothe his qi and blood.
"Why are you so excited? Although I didn't bring people from Shui Yunsheng, I did bring reinforcements."
"How many people?"
"When will they arrive?"
"Who are they? Are they ambushed near the Mysterious Forest?"
"Why didn't we see any signs of them when we came in before?"
Everyone asked questions in a flurry.
Ye Xingchen smiled faintly.
"I brought one person."
Everyone looked stunned.
Ye Xingchen didn't seem like someone who would do something so risky without confidence.
"One person? One person is not enough!"
"One person is enough. She is enough."
While they were talking below,
Lin Lang got angry above.
After breaking Ye Xingchen's water shield, she wanted to attack again and seal everyone in the Mysterious Forest.
However,
just as Lin Lang was about to form another hand seal,
a light shield suddenly appeared in front of her.
The light shield was entirely fiery red, with a shining glow on it.
The fiery - red light shield was extremely hard, and its thickness was comparable to the light shield that the people on the ground had built together before. Moreover, it was even several times thicker.
A sense of foreboding rose in Lin Lang's heart.
She was just about to turn around when she shouted, "Retreat!"
But the remaining subordinates of the Seven - Star Alliance didn't have time to back away. Several light shields appeared around them with a clicking sound, trapping them inside.
Only then did Lin Lang realize that the person who came with Ye Xingchen must be extremely extraordinary.
"You're such a coward. Are you too ashamed to show your face?"
As soon as Lin Lang finished speaking,
Zhao Shuning's voice came out.
"I thought you considered it an honor not to show your face."
Zhao Shuning stood on the back of the phoenix, looking down. Her aura was just like that of the former empress Ye Ling, making people not dare to look directly at her.
"Empress Ye Ling."
"And that phoenix?"
This was the first time Lin Lang had seen a phoenix.
Its fiery - red body, gorgeous feathers, and beautiful eyes, especially the imposing manner of the king of all birds, made the Longya Fantian Leopard beside Lin Lang barely able to breathe.
Such powerful spiritual power.
Such a powerful divine beast.
"Back then, in the black - market alley outside Yanyu Tower, it should be you who killed that spy from Shui Yunsheng. If I'm not wrong, you must have something to do with An Susu."
Zhao Shuning put her hands behind her back.
Her expression was cold.
Looking down from above,
everyone couldn't help but shiver.
Among the people below, the most excited one was Du She, Xie An.
Kong Shishuang and Ye Xingchen had already met Zhao Shuning, but Xie An hadn't.
This was the first time they had seen each other in more than forty years.
"It's the fairy, isn't it?"
Du She tightly grasped Ye Xingchen's hand beside him. Ye Xingchen smiled.
"Yes, it's sister."
"With sister here, we don't have to worry."
Zhao Shuning was the reassurance in everyone's heart. Whenever she appeared, no matter how dangerous the situation was, she could always turn the tables and avoid danger.
