Chapter 80
Ye Deqing sneered, "The Demon Lord's fire magic is truly masterful. But do you think you can evade it like this? The title of the Ye family patriarch wasn't earned for nothing!"
After saying that, Ye Deqing made a hand seal with his left hand, his lips moved constantly, and he kept chanting some kind of incantation.
"He actually knows the Golden Thunder Spell!" Leng Huai whispered.
Mo Xiaoxin asked, "What is the Golden Thunder Spell?"
"The Golden Thunder Spell is the most powerful spell among metal-based magic. It has seven levels, and I've only mastered five. Each level is more powerful than the last, creating a series of dramatic changes. The fifth level can cleave a mountain in half, the sixth level can split the ground, and the seventh level is hellish, capable of destroying the entire world!"
Mo Xiaoxin thought to herself, "Isn't this almost like a nuclear bomb?"
If these spells are perfected, they are all extremely destructive.
I wonder how many levels Ye Deqing has reached. Judging from his boldness, his level is probably not low.
“But didn’t you say that this lava pool is effective against metal-based magic?” Mo Xiaoxin asked.
Leng Huai: "Even if this place can counter metal-type magic, it can only reduce it by one level at most. If Ye Deqing reaches the seventh level, then none of us can defeat him."
Mo Xiaoxin swallowed hard, praying in her heart that Ye Deqing would never reach the seventh level, otherwise even if she were resurrected a thousand times, she would have no way to get out of this place.
After Ye Deqing finished reciting the last incantation, several bolts of lightning suddenly appeared on the stone wall above, illuminating the entire lava pool in an instant.
Xian Fei, Yue Ke, and the others who were still locked in combat stopped upon seeing this, as they had never witnessed such powerful metal-based magic before.
“This is…” Xian Fei stared blankly at the lightning flashing incessantly in the sky.
Yue Ke's usually cool face showed a hint of surprise: "This is the Golden Thunder Spell!"
Ye Pingwei coldly looked at the group opposite him: "You've never seen this before, have you? This is my father's most powerful spell; he's mastered it to the sixth level!"
"The sixth level!" Yue Si exclaimed in shock, her face showing fear. She had underestimated Ye Deqing before; he was someone she and her sister couldn't defeat even when they joined forces.
Seeing that they finally showed fear, Ye Pingwei sneered: "Today you have handed over your shields, which means you have become enemies of the Ye family. My father will never let you go!"
Yue Ke's expression was rather unpleasant, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Xian Fei comforted him, "Don't worry, the worst that can happen is death."
Yue Si rolled her eyes: "Is this supposed to be comforting or adding fuel to the fire?"
Xian Fei said innocently, "Of course it's to comfort you, my dear sister..."
Mo Xiaoxin overheard their conversation.
The sixth level is alright, but after being downgraded, it becomes the same level as the fifth level and Leng Huai.
Clearly, Leng Huai heard it too, and he followed suit, reciting the Golden Thunder Spell.
Several more terrifying bolts of lightning suddenly appeared on the stone wall above.
The cave was filled with flickering lights, accompanied by occasional loud thunder. The light was so bright it hurt your eyes, and the sound was so loud it hurt your ears.
Are these two trying to cripple everyone's eyes and ears by fighting each other?
Suddenly, several bolts of lightning struck.
The bubbling lava bombs were everywhere.
Mo Xiaoxin reacted quickly, and she hurriedly covered the surrounding area with ice rings to avoid disaster.
However, Yueke and the others were not so lucky. Even though they used shield artifacts, they were still burned to varying degrees.
Several more bolts of lightning struck, splitting the rock beneath Mo Xiaoxin's feet in two and forcing the two of them apart.
Of course, it wasn't just them; even the shore where Yueke and the others were standing was broken, and everyone was forced to float on the lava.
Ye Deqing and Leng Huai were locked in a fierce battle.
Seeing that Mo Xiaoxin was alone, Ye Deqing revealed an evil smile. He suddenly struck a bolt of lightning straight at Mo Xiaoxin.
Leng Huai knew something was wrong.
Mo Xiaoxin had been keeping a close eye on Ye Deqing's every move, keenly sensing his ulterior motives. She immediately surrounded the rock with layers of fire and ice rings, forming a large sphere of ice and fire. When the lightning struck, Mo Xiaoxin felt an unprecedented impact, making her feel that death was imminent.
Ye Deqing glanced at Leng Huai with disdain: "If you don't want your Demon Queen to die, then hurry up and give me the key!"
After the platform shattered, the door was suspended in the middle of the lava pool, no more than a meter away from Ye Deqing.
Mo Xiaoxin shouted, "Ye Deqing, do you really think Leng Huai likes me? Our affection is just superficial. He doesn't care about me at all. So, you've miscalculated!"
Ye Deqing clearly didn't quite believe her explanation: "Oh? Is that so? But Leng Huai seems to care about you a lot."
Mo Xiaoxin glanced at Leng Huai, who was looking at her with a worried expression: "Ye Deqing's lightning cannot be forcibly broken by my lightning, otherwise you will definitely die too!"
The only way to save Mo Xiaoxin is to get Ye Deqing to stop.
Mo Xiaoxin winked at Leng Huai, trying to get him to cooperate, but the latter didn't seem to understand what she was trying to convey.
Leng Huai looked at Ye Deqing and said firmly, "I will not let you hurt her."
Mo Xiaoxin's lips twitched.
Leng Huai immediately unleashed a bolt of lightning that struck Ye Deqing.
A figure flashed into view; Ye Songlan suddenly appeared and blocked Ye Deqing's path.
Ye Songlan's eyes held a hint of resentment: "Leng Huai, how cruel you are! Even now, you still won't let the Ye family go. Are you trying to drive us to our deaths?"
Mo Xiaoxin's eyes lit up; there was going to be a good show to watch.
Leng Huai looked into Ye Songlan's eyes and said coldly, "Get out of the way."
Ye Songlan's eyes were resolute: "No!"
Leng Huai remained silent for a moment, his gaze towards Ye Songlan turning somewhat cold.
Ye Songlan clenched her fists, meeting Leng Huai's icy gaze: "I saved your life many years ago. If you have any conscience, you should spare our lives!"
Leng Huai's eyes were unfathomable, and a cruel smile appeared on his lips: "What does it matter to me whether you live or die?"
Ye Songlan was stunned, not expecting Leng Huai to say such a thing: "You! You really are a heartless and ungrateful person!"
Leng Huai glanced at her coldly: "Say what you want."
Leng Huai had no time to waste with her. He calculated the time; the exit of the Ruins of Ashes would close in half an hour. He had to get Ye Deqing's shield as soon as possible, otherwise…
As he was thinking this, Ye Songlan suddenly pounced on him and hugged him.
"Leng Huai, can you be a little gentler with me? I like you so much..."
Leng Huai froze and instinctively pushed Ye Songlan away.
Ye Songlan was almost pushed into the lava pool by Leng Huai's force. Her eyes were full of disbelief. She couldn't believe that she had given him her whole heart and soul, only to be met with such an outcome.
Leng Huai seemed completely oblivious to the hurt in Ye Songlan's eyes, coldly glancing at Ye Deqing behind Ye Songlan.
"The only person who can be so indifferent to his daughter is the head of the Ye family. He was completely unmoved when he saw his daughter about to fall into the lava pool," Leng Huai said sarcastically.
Ye Deqing sneered: "How I treat my own daughter is none of your business, an outsider. My foolish daughter is devoted to you. If we're talking about being cold-hearted, isn't the Demon Lord cold-hearted too?"
Without wasting words, Leng Huai unleashed another bolt of lightning, which struck Ye Deqing squarely on the forehead.
Unexpectedly, it struck a diamond shield.
Leng Huai: "Damn it!"
I didn't expect Deqing to have so many protective magical artifacts this night, and he kept changing them one after another.
Mo Xiaoxin was stunned. He seemed to be really cruel to Ye Songlan. Even she couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
But if he treats her better, she seems a little unhappy...
What's going on?
She shook her head; now was not the time to think about these things.
Lightning bolts kept darting around the ice and fire balls she had set up, trying to break through them.
She kept adding more power to the melting ice and fireballs, but the lightning was melting much faster.
Time seemed to be running out. No, she couldn't let Leng Huai get distracted; she had to get through this on her own.
what to do?
Suddenly, Mo Qiuxin appeared in Mo Xiaoxin's body and said anxiously in Mo Xiaoxin's ear, "I told you to practice your spells more, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what happened!"
Mo Xiaoxin was getting impatient when she heard her incessant chatter and felt annoyed: "Stop chattering, it's annoying. Go cool off somewhere else."
Mo Qiuxin: "I came here to help you, and this is how you treat me?"
Upon hearing this, Mo Xiaoxin said impatiently, "Then hurry up and tell me, I can't hold on much longer!"
Seeing that Mo Xiaoxin was sweating profusely, Mo Qiuxin stopped being mysterious and said, "You can't just use ice and fire to resist like this. You haven't trained either of them to a certain level. Cough cough, the system just said that if you take out 50 million, it can directly upgrade your ice element to the top level."
Mo Xiaoxin's eyes widened: "Fifty million???"
Wouldn't this kill her?
Is this just working for capital, only to be completely exploited by it?
"Where's the system? I haven't seen it anywhere." Mo Xiaoxin asked.
Mo Qiuxin: "It said it had something to say and asked me to pass on its message."
Mo Xiaoxin was speechless: "This guy, he lets others do the bad stuff."
Mo Qiuxin was still a little confused: "Huh? What do you mean?"
Mo Xiaoxin: "Never mind, let me think about it."
Fifty million is a bit much, but there are still hundreds of missions to complete, so I can save up more money later. If I can upgrade the ice element to the top level this time, then completing Mo Qiuxin's revenge mission will be easier.
Thinking of this, Mo Xiaoxin gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, fifty million it is."
Suddenly, a round head popped up out of nowhere: "I'm here. Have you thought it through?"
Upon seeing the system that suddenly appeared, Mo Xiaoxin gritted her teeth and said, "You've thought it through. You have to keep your word."
The system blinked: "The system always keeps its word."
The money is exchanged for the spell upgrade.
In an instant, Mo Xiaoxin felt her whole body filled with power.
The previously scorching hot environment instantly cooled down and became mild and comfortable.
Mo Xiaoxin stretched her limbs, feeling incredibly flexible. The continuous surge of ice-type spiritual energy within her body made her feel extremely safe.
Ye Deqing continued to apply pressure to Mo Xiaoxin with lightning, increasing the number of lightning bolts from one to two.
Leng Huai continued to strike Ye Deqing with lightning, but it seemed that their side was becoming increasingly weak. If this continued, they would probably have a hard time escaping unscathed today.
Ye Deqing smiled and said, "Leng Huai, do you still have your keys?"
Leng Huai touched his waist and found it empty.
He looked up and saw a key that had appeared in Ye Deqing's hand without him noticing.
It turns out that Ye Songlan had secretly taken the key while she was hugging Leng Huai.
Leng Huai glared at Ye Songlan, who was looking at him coldly.
Ye Songlan: "Do you really think I still like you? You've been so cold to me, I've stopped liking you a long time ago. I'm a member of the Ye family, so naturally I have to work for the Ye family."
As they were speaking, a beautiful white figure suddenly flew out from the ice and fire ball.
Ye Deqing was utterly astonished: "This, how is this possible..."
Mo Xiaoxin clasped her hands together and then pulled them outwards. Suddenly, a sword appeared in her hand, its blade gleaming with an icy, chilling frost.
Everyone was stunned when they saw the sword.
"It's actually the Ice Crystal Sword!" Ye Hualing exclaimed in surprise.
