Chapter 406: Awakening as a God’s Chosen one, Reaper’s Sickle (I)
“Your side has already left. Now release Yue Ye!” Ah’Bao was standing less than ten meters away from Long Haochen coldly, glaring at Cai’er and him.
After considering for a short time, Long Haochen came to a decision. Looking at Cai’er who still stood like a sculpture, a peculiar warmth filled his eyes.
Standing next to him, Yue Ye saw this the most clearly. She was out of words when seeing Long Haochen’s expression. Those warm eyes were filled with determination, with an endless reluctance, and an indescribable firmness.
Right at this time, Long Haochen’s lips pursed slightly, and he whispered some words in Yue Ye’s ear.
“Because of the previous slaughter, Cai’er entered an enlightened state. In this state, she could wound you very easily. She cannot be touched, or your life will be in danger, so I will teleport you to a certain place. Remember that you cannot move in this place, and have to stand still and wait. Afterwards, you can just pray that Cai’er and I survive.”
Saying this, Long Hoachen slowly lifted his hand, placing it on Yue Ye’s shoulder.
“What are you doing?” Ah’Bao shouted in fury.
Not giving him the slightest glance, Long Haochen released a faint golden light from his chest, and with a glint of golden light, Yue Ye disappeared the next instant.
Seeing Yue Ye disappear, those Demon Hunter Removers rushed forward but were stopped with a shout of Ah’Bao. His ice-cold look seemed to pierce Long Haochen’s body like a sharp blade.
“Where did you send Yue Ye?”
From teleporting Yue Ye, Long Haochen immediately became very weak. Shaking, he almost fell to the ground. But right at this time, Ah’Bao also noticed that something was wrong, because even after Yue Ye disappeared, Cai’er, who seized her before, still didn’t move in the slightest.
With some difficulty, Long Haochen turned around and faced Ah’Bao, “I think you can understand it now. Because of her previous attack, my comrade suffered some aftereffects and is currently unable to move. So you missed your best opportunity to kill us. I advise you not to act blindly without thinking. You should realize that Princess Yue Ye was sent away via a spatial teleportation. I sent her to another space, one that except for me, no one can access. Thus, if I die, you won’t see your fiancée ever again.”
Making such a decision was undoubtedly extremely challenging for Long Haochen. Cai’er suddenly entering the state of awakening as a god’s chosen one had effectively rendered his original plan of escape void, and all he could do now was to let his comrades escape in advance. But he couldn’t leave himself. If he was gone, what would become of Cai’er? Everyone could depart, but the only exception was him. He had to remain close to Cai’er to protect her. Without regard for his own life, he would remain at her side.
Before the start of the decisive battle between Ah’Bao and him, Long Haochen used his eyes to ask Cai’er about what to do. During their last meeting with Yue Ye, when they alleviated the restriction placed on her, Yue Ye had told them about her engagement with Ah’Bao, and before the decisive battle, Long Haochen had told Cai’er to contact Yue Ye.
At the peak of Long Haochen’s battle with Ah’Bao, Cai’er used the restriction placed on Yue Ye’s body to communicate with her from afar, and Yue Ye gave her a simple reply: to seize her.
In the instant after the last clash between Long Haochen and Ah’Bao, Cai’er, after entering her invisible state, had two choices at her disposition, which were either to ambush Ah’Bao or to seize Yue Ye.
In the end, Cai’er went for the safer choice. After all, the last time when they attacked Ah’Bao, he used some unstoppable means to escape. If this were repeated, they would undoubtedly get wiped out by the remaining Demon Hunter Removers. Therefore, seizing Yue Ye was the most dependable option.
The reason why Long Haochen teleported Yue Ye away, was simply to guarantee her safety. With Cai’er in her state of awakening, whoever were to irritate her, Yue Ye would perhaps get killed due to the unstable killing intent emitted by Cai’er. And if Cai’er completed her awakening, Long Haochen didn’t know what would happen either. In either case, Yue Ye’s life would also be put at risk.
After cooperating several times, Long Haochen had gained some trust in Yue Ye. The help she gave him was indeed not negligible, and he obviously couldn’t blindly watch her die. Thus, he chose to teleport Yue Ye away to the Tower of Eternity.
After their time spent training on the second floor of the Tower of Eternity, Long Haochen was capable of deciding the destination of any teleportation with the Eternal Melody. Without hesitation, he sent Yue Ye to the first floor of the Tower of Eternity.
“Wait here with me. After the backlash of my comrade receeded, I will naturally give Princess Yue Ye back to you. Of course, this is if we can leave peacefully from here.”
