Chapter 794 – Betrayal! (2/2)

“You’re most welcome….”

It didn’t take long for practically everyone from Profounder Continent to surrender.

A short while pa.s.sed before Supreme Exalt He gazed at the Demon Saint, and he said, “What about the demon race?”

Lu Yan and Elder Mu gazed at the Demon Saint. The latter glanced at those who’d surrendered and said, “All of you’ll regret your decision!”

One of the Half-Saints spoke in a deep voice, “Demon Saint, you’ve seen the current situation. We have no chance to win. The Hallowed Grounds merely wants to kill Yang Ye. We truly don’t have to be buried along with Yang Ye.”

The Half-Saint from the devil race spoke as well, “Demon Saint, I know that you have a good relations.h.i.+p with Yang Ye. But do you really intend to allow the entire demon race to be annihilated because of that? The defiant profounders have emerged from the seal. If we don’t surrender, then how will we fight them? Only the Hallowed Grounds can keep us safe!”

The Demon Saint shook his head and said, “I’ll give all of you one last piece of advice. You should know Yang Ye’s character very well. So long as all of you leave Profounder Continent today, then all of you’ll become his enemies. All of you’ve seen how ruthless he is against his enemies. Moreover, he will absolutely not give any of you a chance if you leave Profounder Continent!”

“Yang Ye?” Supreme Exalt He laughed coldly and said, “He’s only a Monarch Realm profounder. What can he possibly do even if he attains the Half-Saint Realm? Demon Saint, Lu Yan, the Undertaker, and every other profounder on Profounder Continent, I’ll give all of you 5 days to consider my offer. If you don’t head to the Hallowed Grounds and surrender in that time, then my Hallowed Grounds will flood the entire continent with your blood. We won’t leave a single soul alive!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he started leading them into the teleportation formation.

As he watched the members of Profounder Continent being ceaselessly teleported through the formation, Elder Mu frowned and spoke in a serious tone, “All of this is slightly strange. Based on the current state in this world, those beneath the Half-Saint Realm are completely useless. Yet now, the Hallowed Grounds is actually even willing to accept those below the Half-Saint Realm. That’s really quite unusual!”

Lu Yan spoke coldly, “In any case, they’ll face horrible consequences. Just wait and see.”

Fan Ke spoke abruptly, “We haven’t even fought yet so many of your forces have left. We don’t even have a fighting chance now!”

“If you want, you can surrender to them right now as well!” Lu Yan spoke indifferently. Actually, he looked forward to seeing the entire continent surrender to the Hallowed Grounds. Because Yang Ye wouldn’t be tied down here if that happened. With the protection both he and Elder Mu could provide Yang Ye, they could still survive even if the Hallowed Grounds and defiant profounders attacked the continent!

“You seem to be so composed. I presume you definitely have a backup plan. I’d like to see what it is!” replied Fan Ke.

“Then just wait and see!” said Lu Yan.

…

The Hallowed Grounds. The underground world.

Yang Ye received news of it as soon as the members of Profounder Continent surrendered to the Hallowed Grounds.

In a hall.

Xiao Ying said, “See? The defiant profounders didn’t have to do anything. Just the Hallowed Grounds crushed more than 70% of your forces. Moreover, they didn’t even have to lift a finger. Do you think that you can fight the Hallowed Grounds and defiant profounders now?”

Yang Ye replied, “That’s their choice. However, some still chose to stay with me, like the demon race. I naturally wouldn’t care about the fate of those who betray me, but how can I abandon those who’re still following me?”

Xiao Ying gazed at Yang Ye for a short while before she said, “You really do surprise me. Alright, since you want me to help you, I’m really curious why you’re so confident that you’ll be able to convince me and make me fight the defiant profounders and Hallowed Grounds to the death by your side!”

Yang Ye pondered deeply for a moment and said, “Xiao Ying, do you want to head to the Outer Heavens!?”

“Who doesn’t?” She said, “But I’m sorry, I don’t think you have the ability to accomplish that. Moreover, I think that besides the method which the defiant profounders and the Hallowed Grounds intend to use, there’s no other person or method in this world that can break open the Heavenpath. So, I won’t help you fight them!”

Yang Ye walked slowly towards her, and he looked directly into her eyes as he said, “What if I said that I can break open the Heavenpath. Would you believe me?”

“Continue trying to trick me! Go on!” said Xiao Ying.

The corners of Yang Ye’s mouth twitched, and he spoke in a very serious tone, “I can attain the Saint Realm!”

She spoke coldly, “Continue trying!”

Yang Ye’s face darkened. He didn’t waste his breath again, and he directly stretched out his hand and took her hand instead.

Xiao Ying’s expression changed, and she was about to attack him when her eyes suddenly opened wide, and her entire body started to tremble slightly. “Quintessence Violet Energy?”

As she spoke, she twisted her hand and grabbed Yang Ye’s hand instead, and it seemed like she yearned for more Primordial Violet Energy.

However, Yang Ye pulled his hand away and said, “You believe me now, right?”

“How could you possibly possess Quintessence Violet Energy!?” Xiao Ying stared fixedly at him.

Yang Ye replied, “That’s not important. The important thing is that I’m not just able to become a Saint myself, I can allow you to become one as well. So, do you still intend to refuse?”

Suddenly, Xiao Ying flashed over to Yang Ye, and then she grabbed him by the throat and said, “Let me become a Saint right now. Otherwise, I’ll twist your throat apart!”
