Chapter 544 – Luo Jun’s Death Trap! (2/2)
Luo Jun took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the Mortal Emperor Sword in his right hand. He was determined to obtain the World Portrait today, and Yang Ye had to die as well. No one could stop him, even the Demon Emperor.
When he thought about the Demon Emperor, Luo Jun looked up into the sky. There was an ancestor of the Exalted Han Empire up there.
High above in the clouds.
Three old men were in a triangular shape while facing each other.
“Luo Tian, based on the situation below, it looks like your grandson intends to eliminate Yang Ye today!” The Grand Elder of the devil race glanced at the white haired old man standing in front of him and said, “But the Demon Emperor would probably not allow it, right?”
Luo Tian said indifferently, “The agreement between our three races is one where the Monarch Realm experts of our races can’t act against the members of the other races. My Exalted Han Empire won’t go against that agreement. If the Demon Emperor stops Jun’er from killing Yang Ye, then it’s the Demon Emperor who broke the agreement. Your devil race wouldn’t stand by idly if the demon race were to break the agreement, right? Of course, if you just watch, then it means that the agreement between our three races isn’t in effect anymore. Since it isn’t in effect, then all of those members of your devil race who’ve come here today can just rest here forever!”
“Are you threatening me?” The Grand Elder of the devil race spoke in a low voice.
Luo Tian said, “When we made the agreement, we agreed that once one of us broke the agreement, the other two races would jointly pursue and kill that person. Grand Elder, you wouldn’t have forgotten about that, right?”
The Grand Elder of the devil race grunted coldly and said, “Of course I do. Don’t worry, if the Demon Emperor dares to violate the agreement, then I’ll definitely uphold the terms of the agreement and stop him. Of course, I’d do the same if your Exalted Han Empire were to violate the agreement!”
Luo Tian laughed coldly and said, “Practically all the elites below the Monarch Realm of my Exalted Han Empire are here. Even if Yang Ye is the Sword Sect’s Founding Ancestor, he would still have to die here today.”
“Nothing is absolute!” The Dragon Emperor chuckled.
Luo Tian glanced at the Dragon Emperor, grunted coldly, and didn’t speak another word.
Within the World Portrait.
Yang Ye gazed at Yin Xuan’er and said, “You’re saying that Luo Jun left with his subordinates after An Nanjing and I were taken away by the old man?”
Yin Xuan’er nodded and said, “If I’m not wrong, then Luo Jun was definitely aware that it was impossible for him to obtain the World Portrait, so he decided to wait outside for you. In other words, Luo Jun’s army or those extraordinary experts of the Exalted Han Empire might be waiting outside. They’re definitely waiting for you right now!”
“He intends to use numbers against me, huh!” said Yang Ye.
Yin Xuan’er said, “I suggest that you don’t head out there. I know you’re strong and even going against 10 by yourself isn’t a problem. However, there’s a limit to your strength! You’ve made Luo Jun lose so much face before this, so he’ll absolutely not allow you to leave alive. Thus, it’s absolutely the extraordinary experts of the Exalted Han Empire that will be waiting outside for you, and there’ll definitely not be just a few of them. You’ll be walking into a trap if you head out right now, and you’ll have no chance of surviving!”
“Then am I supposed to shrink back and hide here?” Yang Ye laughed. “It would buy me some time, but can I hide forever?”
“Then what’s your plan to deal with Luo Jun?” asked Yin Xuan’er.
Yang Ye shrugged and said, “I don’t have one. I’ll just kill my way out.” He’d obtained the World Portrait, so he intended to return to the southern territory. Of course, he wouldn’t give it to anyone. In any case, his only goal was to prevent Luo Jun from obtaining it.
“You’re a rash idiot!” Yin Xuan’er was quite angry, and she said, “Do you realize that you’re just giving your life away by doing that!?”
Yang Ye smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t give my life away! You and Jianyao leave first. I’ll leave a while later. An Nanjing, you go with them. Many people will definitely be suspicious of them since they’re only leaving now, so your presence will be able to deter those fellows who arouse ill intent towards them.”
An Nanjing glanced at Yang Ye< and then she gazed at Yin Xuan’er and Lu Jianyao. She said, “Let’s go. There’s no need to worry about him. He isn’t someone that courts death.”
The corners of Yang Ye’s mouth twitched a little, and he rolled his eyes.
Yin Xuan’er hesitated for a moment before she removed a golden ring from her hand and pa.s.sed it to Yang Ye. “There are 12 Gold Guards in here, and five of them are at the ninth rank of the Exalt Realm. The other 7 are at the fifth rank of the Exalt Realm. They should be quite helpful to you.”
Yang Ye was just about to refuse when Yin Xuan’er said, “That’s all the help I can give you. If you refuse and I release all of these fellows while you’re in battle with Luo Jun, then Luo Jun will definitely not let us go. Do you want the Exalted Han Empire to target us?”
Yang Ye smiled bitterly, and then he took the ring and said, “Thank you!”
The old man waited for An Nanjing, Yin Xuan’er, and the others to leave before he said, “Are you really going to head out there just like that?”
Yang Ye said, “What else can I do? I don’t seem to have a choice, right?”
“That’s true!” said the old man.
Around 10 minutes later, Yang Ye appeared before everyone in the outside world.
He was the center of attention!
