Chapter 1062 - Star Restoration in a Dire Situation
Hearing Yun Che’s words, Yan Wancang and others cast glances at him. They could only come to the same conclusion as Huo Rulie… that he wanted to go and die along with his master.
But Yun Che said with a calm and cold gaze, “Dying along with her? I’m still sane enough not to do such a stupid thing! I want to go in order to save my master!”
“As if that’s possible!” Huo Rulie roared. “Unless a Higher Realm King comes here to lend their help, no one can save your master! With your insignificant cultivation, you don’t even qualify to die trying such a thing!”
Yun Che looked Huo Rulie straight in the eye as he said, “Three days ago, I accomplished something that you thought was impossible, something you couldn’t possibly believe.”
“Just a while ago, I told you over and over again that there are two ancient horned dragons. I didn’t even hesitate to take a blood oath and even then, you didn’t believe me… Do you see how things have turned out now due to your unwillingness to trust my words?”
“Your self-opinionated attitude has lead you to be ashamed again and again! So, what right do you have left now to assert that I’m not able to save my master!? You may not be capable of saving her but how can you assume that I’m also incapable of doing it?”
Immediately, Huo Rulie fell into a daze.
“A few hours ago today, you vowed solemnly and said it yourself that you owe me an enormous favor and as such, would gladly give me whatever I want or fulfill whatever request I make. Heh…” Yun Che let out a light laugh in ridicule, “I was a fool to have felt respect for you at the time. Huo Rulie, who would’ve thought that your words like ‘I’ll definitely return the favor’ and ‘surely do what I said’ were nothing more than a pile of crap!!”
“You scoundrel!!”
There was no one that would dare angrily curse at the distinguished Sect Master of the Golden Crow Sect in such a manner. Golden Crow Sect Elder Huo Rujin flew into a rage, “Little brat of the Snow Song Realm, you actually dared to abuse my sect master? Looks like you’re tired of living…”
“Shut the hell up!!”
Huo Rulie howled furiously, causing Huo Rujin to quickly take two steps backward in fear. Profound energy erupted from his body, directly splitting apart his sleeves and revealing his magma rock like arms.
“I, Huo Rulie… may be a coward but I’ve never been a vile person who would go back on his word!” Huo Rulie exhaled heavily. “Alright! If you want to throw away your life… then I’ll follow along with you! At worst, I’ll lose my life!”
“Let’s go!!” He lifted Yun Che up, after which a violent and stormy wave charged into the God Burying Inferno Prison.
“Master!”
“Sect Master!”
“Sect Master Huo!!”
Everyone present shouted in alarm but Huo Rulie turned a deaf ear. In the blink of an eye, his figure completely disappeared from their sight.
As he possessed might at the Divine Sovereign level, his speed was terrifyingly fast, to say the least. Just the storm alone was enough to make Yun Che feel as if his body was being torn apart. Fortunately, Huo Rulie at once covered Yun Che’s body with his profound power, which helped the latter to gradually feel at ease.
“Sect Master Huo, hurry up… Use your fastest speed!”
They were three thousand five hundred kilometers away. That would require Yun Che at least a few hours, even if he were to employ all his might and could approach the place alive. That was not the case for someone of a very high cultivation level such as Huo Rulie. Hearing Yun Che’s words, he gnashed his teeth and cursed, before sweeping ahead with his palm. His flames ripped space one after another as he passed through them, reaching closer and closer to his ultimate speed.
The energy density in the region of the God Burying Inferno Prison was extremely fearsome and as such, Huo Rulie could only cover a very limited distance through ripping space. However, his speed was still extraordinary and incomparably fast and they travelled the distance of a thousand kilometers before long. At this time, Yun Che slowly raised his palm that was holding a blood-red jade stone.
Huo Rulie immediately turned around his head when he felt the scorching hot aura of the jade stone, “Vermilion Bird Jade!?”
At Divine Ice Phoenix Sect’s Great Sect Assembly several months ago, it was the Vermilion Bird Jade that was presented to Mu Xuanyin when the three sect masters of the Flame God Realm had ”payed a visit”. It was straightaway given away to Yun Che!
Yun Che had his eyes closed as his consciousness speedily submerged and then the Vermilion Bird Jade also disappeared from his hand.
“Slap!”
Inside the Sky Poison Pearl, Yun Che slapped the bottom of Hong’er, who was sleeping soundly at the moment. She jumped up shouting and said with a look of grievance, hands on her behind, “Master, wh-wh-why… did you hit my butt?”
You little girl… Yun Che gritted his teeth in anger… Such a huge incident has happened outside and she’s still sleeping here so soundly!
Phew… cool down! Don’t lose your calm! I can’t afford to offend this little devil.
An incomparable warm smile surfaced on his face. Then, he displayed the Vermilion Bird Jade in his hand, “Hong’er, I’ve never spent time playing with you since I arrived in the God Realm. As such, I’ve always felt guilty in my heart and so…”
“Wow! It smells delicious!!”
The instant Yun Che finished his words, Hong’er’s eyes brightened like stars as she looked fixedly at the Vermilion Bird Jade in his hand. Soon after, a red light flashed before Yun Che… and his hand immediately felt lighter.
Hong’er disappeared and so did the Vermilion Bird Jade!
Crunch! Crunch!
Hearing crisp biting sound from behind, Yun Che turned around to look at Hong’er biting a mouthful of the pieces of the Vermilion Bird Jade that contained a terrifying amount of energy. Three bites later, she swallowed down the whole thing.
“~！@#￥%…” The corners of Yun Che’s eyes twitched… Why did I even try to come up with a way to coax her into eating it? That was completely unnecessary!
“Heehee!” Hong’er narrowed her eyes as she spread out her hands, “It’s gone now… aah…aah…aah?”
Yun Che had already vanished from her her field of vision by this time.
“Hmm…” Hong’er waved her finger from side to side, with a pondering expression, “Why did he leave all of a sudden? Could it be that Master got angry at me?”
“Sect Master Huo Rulie, how far are we from our destination?” Yun Che regained his consciousness and loudly roared.
As they got closer to the central area, the intensity at which the sea of flames seethed and the turbulence of the energy storms became stronger by more than several times.
“There’s still quite some distance left!”
“Then be a bit faster! The faster the better! My master won’t be able to hold on for too long!”
“Damn it!” Huo Rulie let out a loud curse. His flame power surged and directly cut open a ten meter long space crack, causing his travelling speed to become even faster.
“Boy! Since you don’t intend to throw away your life, you should at least tell me what you’re planning to do first!?”
No matter how hard he tried, Huo Rulie was unable to think of any method that Yun Che could use to save Mu Xuanyin.
Yun Che slightly gritted his teeth in response but didn’t say a word.
“Then can you tell me how confident are you to succeed?” Huo Rulie asked in aloud voice, while using all his might to travel through space.
“Not at all!” Yun Che said in a heavy voice. “There’s only… a tiny possibility.”
“What? You… what did you say?” Huo Rulie widened his eyes.
“But it’s my master we’re talking about!” Yun Che clenched his hands into fists. “It’s the person who took the most care of me since the time I arrived in the God Realm. Even if the possibility is negligible… I still won’t sit idle as my master loses her life.”
“...Tch! I don’t know what kind of enchanting method those women have used on you that resulted in you being so hell-bent on rescuing her.” Huo Rulie suddenly started laughing loudly, “It’s truly strange. I might end up dying because of you, which makes me very infuriated inside and yet, I still find you even more pleasing than before. Hahahaha… grab on tight!”
Each and every time he ripped the space of the God Burying Inferno Prison, even someone as powerful as Huo Rulie needed to exert all his strength.
When they were two thousand kilometers away, the howling rumble of the energy storm had grown deafeningly loud.
When they were nearly one thousand five hundred kilometers away, the scenery around them changed its colors in every instant.
At the time when they were close to the one thousand kilometers mark, the remnant waves of the unceasingly gushing energy and its force struck Yun Che’s chest, as if several heavy hammers were hitting him, inducing extreme pain in his body. Profound power surged from Huo Rulie’s arm, which was grabbing onto Yun Che and a light red flame barrier enveloped his entire body within, effectively cutting it off completely from external influences.
The expression on Yun Che’s face quickly returned to normal and he said in an urgent voice, “Sect Master Huo, please hurry up!”
They were about one thousand kilometers away at present. Huo Rulie had watched the battle many times but had never come so close to it. His speed didn’t decrease in the slightest and he pressed on further ahead as he carried Yun Che along.
Very soon…
Seven hundred fifty kilometers…
Five hundred kilometers!
An extremely frightening and shocking dragon roar resounded throughout the place and the energy storm that seemed like the harbinger of doomsday came to a standstill within an instant. It at least testified that Mu Xuanyin had yet to really lose her life. Huo Rulie gritted his teeth and poured even more power into the flame barrier around Yun Che. Afterwards, he continued to rush forward.
Four hundred fifty kilometers…
Four hundred kilometers…
Three hundred fifty kilometers…
Three hundred kilometers…
Two hundred fifty kilometers!!
