Chapter 864: A Handsome Man As Cold As Ice
The majority of the crowd eventually regained their composure a long time after seeing Mei Aonan and Ye Qingcheng disappear into the sky. A few great characters lost their patience and even gave up on entering the beastworld. They surged into the sky in order to enter space.
It was very beneficial for these big shots to watch the fight with their own eyes. A fight between supreme geniuses could spark a new enlightenment. Such comprehension would allow them to further understand their own merit laws, to break the chains and venture to the next level.
Soon after, the Ninehead Lion Emperor also followed them into space, leaving behind the eighteen Young Celestials. These eighteen youths glanced at each other, and one of them spoke in a serious manner: “A life for a life. The demonic Imperial Edge has killed many of our brothers and friends from the Celestial Array School, so they must pay with their lives!”
A different youth screamed: “That’s right, blood for blood. The demons from the Imperial Edge must pay with their lives!”
“Kill, for the Celestial Array School!” Another Celestial Youth rushed forward on his horse with many experts right behind him.
“Kill, vengeance for the school!” The eighteen youths quickly began their march towards the Imperial Edge. Their armies rushed inside like an unstoppable flood.
Thunderous hymns filled the sky. Treasures and weapons began to assault the Imperial Edge with their mighty and ferocious power. The eighteen Young Celestials and their armies seemed to be able to sink the continent!
The sudden attack astounded many spectators. They didn’t expect the Young Celestials to attack right away with all of their forces.
“This, this is insane! Are they trying to break all pretensions already?” Everyone was horrified by this sudden attack.
Although Ye Qingcheng and Mei Aonan’s fight was unavoidable due to the competition for the Heaven’s Will, sects normally wouldn’t interfere between these geniuses. To mobilize armies for the sake of destruction would cause too much antagonism.
However, the eighteen youths chose to do so. The moment they ordered the attack was no different from dragging their own sects into this war. Nevertheless, they didn’t do so without any prior planning. Although they were furious from Mei Aonan’s contemptuous words earlier, they had a clear strategy.
Naturally, their sects were wary of Mei Aonan. Although everyone knew that she left the Jianlong Clan to establish her own power, she was ultimately one of their disciples, a part of the clan.
The eighteen powers did not necessarily want to fight against a sect with three emperors for Ye Qingcheng’s sake. However, the Young Celestials were hot-headed. Under the urging of the Cloud Soaring Venerable, they decided to take action during the heat of the moment. Their goal was to attack the floating continent while Ye Qingcheng and Mei Aonan fought each other.
They were confident about destroying the continent when they worked together alongside their armies. After destroying the Imperial Edge, everyone in the world would know of their fame. This was to build a solid foundation for their future. Thus, the positions of the eighteen generals beneath the future Immortal Emperor would eventually fall into their laps!
“Rumble!” The continuous rumbling continued as the armies marched on.
“Ah!” Next were series of shrill screams. Pitiful shrieks reverberated across the sky, making it clear that the battle had begun.
“Can the Imperial Edge withstand the onslaught of this flood-like cavalry?” Someone murmured right outside of the beastworld after hearing the screams.
In many spectators’ minds, the force of the eighteen sects led by the Young Celestials could sweep through a lineage. Although the Imperial Edge was powerful, it was not necessarily able to withstand this torrential onslaught.
“Ah…” A sharp howl echoed through the air as if a terrible war was taking place within.
Someone recognized this scream and startlingly exclaimed: “What, that’s the voice of a Young Celestial!”
“Boom! Boom! Boom!” At this second, the gallops from the cavalries became chaotic. The shocked spectators saw several hundred riders escaping from the continent.
The leaders of the pack were three young men with hundreds of riders right behind them. There were many Heavenly Kings in the group.
“These three are part of the Young Celestials.” The crowd was astounded at this new development.
The three Young Celestials and the riders were covered in blood and injuries. They looked tattered as they escaped; it was apparent that they had met a formidable enemy.
“Aoooo!” A dragon roar resounded across the battlefield the moment these Young Celestials escaped from the continent. A huge dragon flew out from within. It was completely clear as if made from ice.
