Chapter 150: Displacing Mountains and Rivers

Ye Fan was shocked, Ji Ziyue was actually here, although she had a sweet smile on her face, her face was pale and blood could be seen smeared on her lips. She was currently standing beside a pool of water as she gently trembled.

“How did you arrive here?” Although she was seriously injured, she seemed as lively as ever with a smile on her face, her dimples could still be seen.

“Were you also hunted by the Peacock King?” Ye Fan swiftly moved forward.

“I really managed to meet you…….” She had a thin smile on her face when a stream of blood suddenly flowed from her mouth. Her face became even more pale as her lively eyes suddenly became unfocused as she swayed, falling into the pool of water.

Ye Fan was stunned at the severity of Ji Ziyue’s injuries, her pulse was extremely weak and her heartbeat seemed as though it could stop at any moment, her five organs and six viscera were all injured, it was a miracle that she was still alive.

Ye Fan circulated his divine energy, drying her soaked clothes before taking a few steps, disappearing from the little village as he appeared atop a mountain. He retrieved a jade bottle, pouring some divine spring water into her mouth which immediately transformed into life essence energy, rushing into her body.

The divine spring water retrieved from one of the nine forbidden areas had inconceivable properties, it was possible to revive a dead person’s flesh with it*, he could immediately sense that Ji Ziyue’s injuries were slowly healing.

[T/N* Figure of speech]

At this moment, her eyes were tightly shut as her body trembled, she seemed to be softly muttering something. Ye Fan listened intently but was unable to discern anything.

“Don’t kill my brother……” She shouted in her unconscious state.

An hour later, Ji Ziyue’s long lashes fluttered before slowly opening her eyes, she wanted to sit up but was unable to do so.

“Your injuries are very severe, although it’s stabilised, don’t recklessly move around.” Ye Fan supported her, allowing her to lean against some soft vines by the cliff wall.

“Really frightening……” Ji Ziyue seemed to be frightened of something.

“Are you talking about the Peacock King?” Ye Fan immediately thought of this peerless exponent.

“That’s right.” Ji Ziyue nodded: “Little lad, how could you leave without saying a word, I chased you for three thousand miles but could only return without any rewards.”

“If I didn’t leave, your brother would have dissected my corpse to inspect it.”

Ji Ziyue gently smiled: “How could it be as bad as that? Just relax, as long as I’m around, you will be very safe within my Ji Family, no one will make things difficult for you.”

Ye Fan’s heart shook, it seemed that Ji Ziyue’s position within the Ji Family was not low.

“The Peacock King is really too powerful……” Ji Ziyue had an expression of worry on her face: “I wonder if my brother Haoyue will be able to overcome this trial.”

“The Peacock King also acted against you? How did you manage to flee to this place? It doesn’t seem like you would be able to escape from him.”

The Peacock King was strong beyond belief, even the protectors of the siblings had been killed, it was unlikely that they would be able to withstand a single blow from him.

“He’s really too terrifying, his spiritual power is unfathomable……” Even now, Ji Ziyue could still feel the terror within her heart, they had wanted to activate the domain gate to traverse the void but the Peacock King had merely pointed, causing the void to shatter and forcing everyone out. There were several people who were instantly killed, if Ji Ziyue did not have a precious treasure on her person, she would not have managed to live. In that critical moment, some experts sent by the Ji Family had found them, otherwise, no one would have been left alive.

Even so, no one was able to stop the Peacock King, he was unstoppable as he moved forward, roaring as several people were instantly disintegrated, turning into bloody mists.

“This is……. Simply too inconceivable!” Ye Fan was deeply astonished, such a powerful figure was too frightening, his power could not be estimated!

“A peerless exponent who could be compared to exponents of the ancient past, it is difficult to say how much spiritual power he has……”

That group of expert had merely managed to delay a minute of time before splitting into pieces, this was barely sufficient for Ji Haoyue and Ji Ziyue to flee the area.

Hearing this, Ye Fan was even more convinced of Ji Ziyue’s phenomenal position within the sect. At that critical juncture, the experts of the Ji Family had sacrificed their lives to give her a chance to escape, she could not be given up.

“The Peacock King is one with heaven and earth, his howl can cause tsunamis and even an entire mountain to shatter!” Ye Fan felt his heart palpitate, such a scene was simply beyond the imagination.

“My brother’s divine body has a natural extraordinary aura surrounding it, however, it was thoroughly suppressed and he was like a mere mortal before the Peacock King.”

An existence comparable to exponents of the ancient past, his strength really leaves one breathless.

Ye Fan had personally witnessed the power of Ji Haoyue, he had exterminated several Great Demons like weeding grass without any obstruction. Even so, before the Peacock King, it was still insufficient.

“One with heaven and earth, controlling everything within one’s grasp, one could pluck stars and grab the moon……” Even now, Ji Ziyue was filled with a feeling of anxiety, her little fists were tightly clenched.

“How did you flee to this place?” Ye Fan questioned.

“My brother and I split up to escape, and he continued to chase after my brother……” Ji Ziyue was clearly worried, such an exponent was simply impossible to measure, even if Ji Haoyue with his divine body would not stand a chance at the third stage of his cultivation.

“There hasn’t been any bad news yet, I don’t think your brother will die so easily.” Having said this, Ye Fan had a strange expression on his face: “Why didn’t you head back to the Ji Family instead coming to this place?”

“Although the Peacock King ignored me, there were others who were attempting to kill me…….” Along the way, Ji Ziyue had continually been hunted by other people and suffered multiple injuries.

She had used a domain gate of a small sect in a hurry, traversing the void to arrive in this place. She did not know how to carve Dao Inscriptions and simply could not designate an area to travel to.

“It’s really coincidental…….” Ye Fan muttered.

“It isn’t a coincidence.” Ji Ziyue rolled her eyes: “I’ve left an imprint on your body, after arriving in this region, I slowly made my way here.”

“What, you actually did something to my body?”

“I don’t have any ill intentions, what are you so nervous for? Noticing your abnormal behaviour that day, I knew your were planning to leave. To prepare for this, I left an imprint on your body. You ran too fast and I could not keep up, once the distance was too great, there was simply no way to sense it anymore.”

Ye Fan carefully inspected himself but did not discover any abnormalities: “What did you do?”

“Slowly search……..” Ji Ziyue faintly smiled but her expression swiftly became one of concern: “Brother Haoyue, I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult for you to overcome this trial.”

Suddenly, Ye Fan’s expression stiffened as he looked at the distant sky, several cultivators were rushing out from a door.

“Shit! Those were the people who were hunting me down!” Ji Ziyue shouted: “THey have opened a domain gate to traverse through the void and have followed me here.”

“Chi!”

A frightening bolt of lightning struck, those people were extremely decisive, upon discovering their target they had immediately used their abilities to attempt to kill her.

Ye Fan supported Ji Ziyue as he dodged to the side, the silver bolt of lightning struck the mountain causing rubble to fly in all directions.
