Zuo Wang, carrying Xiao Ye on his back, fled like a swimming dragon.
Song En's aura grew closer, and Zuo Wang's heart pounded harder.
The infected, after searching for a long time, finally found Xiao Ye's location.
Upon seeing Zuo Wang flying in with Xiao Ye, they were overjoyed. "King, hurry, there's no time! The Alliance Leader is attacking us."
As soon as the words fell, Song En's figure appeared in their sight.
Unsure if Song En was friend or foe, the infected couldn't help but ask, "Who is this..."
Song En descended before them, his palm radiating white, lethal energy.
A sense of urgency gripped everyone's hearts, and the infected were slightly astonished.
"To die by the hand of a god is the greatest honor of your lives."
Song En had arrived on Blue Star and didn't mind letting a group of humans experience his might.
Death commanded submission and fear.
Xiao Ye's gaze swept towards Song En.
Song En smiled. "It's too late to beg me now. Heavenly beings have no pity for humans."
He thought Xiao Ye wanted to plead with him, but Song En was mistaken.
Xiao Ye's demeanor was indifferent and arrogant. He raised his voice, "I don't care what kind of god you are, scram back where you came from."
"In the land of She Tian, I will surely slay gods."
Song En's pupils contracted slightly as he saw the earnest look on Xiao Ye's face.
He couldn't understand how a mere mortal could utter words like "slay gods."
Did Xiao Ye truly grasp the difference between himself and She Tian?
Song En believed he could easily crush Xiao Ye with a single finger.
Therefore, hearing the weak Xiao Ye's presumptuous words struck him as laughable.
"Is this your struggle before death?"
Song En approached Xiao Ye, a smile gracing his lips.
His body emanated a sword-like white light, imbued with infinite power, surging towards Xiao Ye.
Anyone touched by it would be reduced to mere ashes.
Yet, Xiao Ye's eyes remained fearless and calm.
Song En's heart sank. He had never encountered such a composed human.
However, becoming Xiao Ye's opponent was this human's misfortune.
Seeing Song En make a move, Zuo Wang felt like giving up.
Who could survive the wrath of a heavenly being?
He closed his eyes.
What a pity.
In his next life, he'd never be a mount again.
As Zuo Wang waited for his demise, Song En's incredulous voice reached his ears.
"How could this be..."
Song En's chilling, deadly attack was moments away from engulfing Xiao Ye.
His body was gradually disappearing and becoming transparent. Song En's eyes widened.
The Myriad Laws Celestial Tome in Xiao Ye's hand burned fiercely, turning to ash.
"No, I don't want to go back, I don't want to go back!!"
Song En flailed, trying to claim Xiao Ye's life.
But it was too late.
His calm voice now carried a ripple of emotion. He spoke with hatred, "Vile human, I will find a way to Blue Star. Once I descend upon Blue Star, you will be a soul lost to the heavens."
Despite Song En's arrogant and cold pronouncements, Xiao Ye's expression remained unchanged.
Zuo Wang saw the heavenly being vanish with the Myriad Laws Celestial Tome.
He couldn't help but laugh. "You actually sent the heavenly being back? So you had a backup plan all along!"
Freed from the shadow of death, Zuo Wang transformed back into his human form and wiped the cold sweat from his brow.
The infected behind him, however, were utterly bewildered.
They had no idea how close they had come to death.
If Xiao Ye hadn't burned the Myriad Laws Celestial Tome, Zuo Wang dared to bet not a single living soul would remain in the entire city.
"Hey, King Xiao, where are you going?"
Zuo Wang, just beginning to relax, saw Xiao Ye leaving without a word.
He watched Xiao Ye fly away rapidly, disappearing from Zuo Wang's sight in the blink of an eye.
The infected nearby understood. "King, he must be heading to the city center. He's going to save Princess Xiao Xi."
Zuo Wang was stunned. "The Alliance's old fogeys have arrived, haven't they? King Xiao is going to fight them?!"
He was well aware of the Alliance's strength. How could Xiao Ye possibly be their match?
Zuo Wang gritted his teeth and immediately flew after him.
The Blue Star Alliance crowd.
They watched the information on the screen, seeing the Alliance Leader and others surrounding Xiao Xi.
A group of powerhouses troubling a young girl just didn't sit right.
Therefore, when Xiao Xi prepared to fight them, the Alliance Leader and the others remained indifferent and did not intervene.
The people of Blue Star considered this cheating!
"Sending out a young girl, what kind of behavior is this?"
"Is Xiao Ye a coward, using a little girl as a shield?"
Onlookers at the scene babbled. Some of the younger generation, who had been waiting from the start,
hoping to witness a grand battle, were gradually growing disappointed.
Why hadn't Xiao Ye appeared yet?
Did Xiao Ye truly not dare to confront the Alliance Leader and the others?
The Alliance Leader and his subordinates stared coldly at Xiao Xi, sensing something peculiar about her.
This young girl was… eerily powerful.
She clutched her head, her brow furrowed.
She was in severe pain.
However, her aura was steadily rising, no weaker than Feng Lao and the others.
Across the entire Blue Star, they couldn't find such a girl even with a country-wide search.
The Alliance Leader and his men were wide-eyed. If Xiao Xi didn't belong to Xiao Ye,
they might have been moved by her talent and made her the next female War God.
"You all step aside, I'll handle this."
Under everyone's gaze, the Alliance Leader focused on Xiao Xi and ordered the elders around him to retreat.
No matter how much Xiao Xi's aura grew, it couldn't surpass his own.
A multi-person assault would make their Alliance appear utterly dishonorable.
The Alliance Leader decided to subdue Xiao Xi personally, and Feng Lao and the others also retreated.
Xiao Xi's gaze turned cold. Without a word, she attacked the Alliance Leader.
However, without exerting much effort, the Alliance Leader evaded Xiao Xi's attack.
He pretentiously declared, "I didn't want to attack you, but since you're being so aggressive, I have no choice but to be rude."
Xiao Xi let out a cold laugh.
She knew the Alliance was hypocritical.
Xiao Xi's beautiful eyes reddened slightly, a crimson hue of killing intent.
Her movements were as nimble as a cat's as she darted in front of the Alliance Leader.
Within seconds, she launched dozens of attacks from different positions.
Yet, none of them could harm the Alliance Leader.
Instead, the Alliance Leader saw through her movements and sent a beam of white light directly at Xiao Xi.
Xiao Xi stumbled backward instantly, her face growing even paler.
Her red dress fluttered, and her fair, tender legs stepped through the air.
Her slender body trembled slightly, erupting with even more dazzling light.
The Alliance Leader wouldn't give Xiao Xi more time to grow stronger; he had already decided to kill her.
Just then, a brush handle suddenly flew in.
The brush handle blocked the Alliance Leader's path. Wei Qi's aged figure appeared.
Feng Lao and the others were astonished by Wei Qi's intervention. He was using his meager strength to save Xiao Xi.
Wei Qi said to the Alliance Leader, "Alliance Leader, please let this child go."
Seeing Wei Qi step forward, the Alliance Leader, still carrying the heavy historical records,
narrowed his eyes.
Feng Lao and the others behind him were enraged. "Wei Qi, have you truly betrayed us? Have you genuinely sided with the infected army?"
Wei Qi's face was filled with complexity.
Initially, he was reluctant in the City of Slaying Gods, but as he recorded Gu Feng and the others' past,
Wei Qi gradually came to understand the infected. Their true desire was simply to survive peacefully on Blue Star.
However, this survival was brought to them by Xiao Ye, who had led them out of their despair.
