He never imagined that Zhao Keyi was not the only mole among them.
"Run!"
However, this was clearly not the time for reminiscing, and Bai Fei shouted a reminder to Shen Qian.
With the help of Zhao Keyi and others, a huge gap has been torn in the Heavenly Soldiers' defenses, but he must get rid of these Heavenly Soldiers and Generals before Jiang Chengye takes action himself.
"Walk!"
With a single strike, Chen Qian forced back two golden-armored generals, then joined up with Zhao Keyi and the others, before charging outwards.
At this moment, Zhao Keyi, Sha Bi, and the others had already surpassed their own strength by refining the immortal positions of the Heavenly Generals. With their combined efforts, they carved out a path in just a few seconds.
The vast sky was now clearly visible.
Buzz!
At this moment, a buzzing sound that made the heavens and earth tremble rang out. Shen Qian turned around and saw that Jiang Chengye had already drawn the Fangtian Halberd from his back.
Just as Shen Qian's heart tightened, Jiang Chengye hurled his halberd fiercely, but aimed it at another area ravaged by lightning.
That's where the Goddess of Lightning is located.
Seeing that Jiang Chengye wasn't targeting them, Shen Qian was surprised, but he didn't have time to think about it. He quickly called out to Zhao Keyi and the others and they started to run away.
The golden-armored heavenly generals who were the first to surround them were either dead or wounded. Shen Qian and his group easily broke through the last line of defense of the heavenly soldiers and directly broke out of the encirclement.
"Walk!"
Shen Qian carried Tantai Qin directly on his back. Tantai Qin's body stiffened for a moment, then relaxed.
Then, Shen Qian grabbed Old Man Hu, who was the slowest, and sped away into the distance.
Perhaps due to the blessing of their immortal status, Zhao Keyi and the others were able to control the clouds and mist, and their speed was extremely fast. Bai Fei did not forget to pull the Emperor Monkey into the cloud he was riding, closely following behind Shen Qian. In an instant, the group disappeared into the horizon.
Only then did Jiang Chengye, standing in the Heavenly Soldiers' formation, slightly raise his head and glance in the direction where Shen Qian and the others had disappeared.
However, the emotional fluctuations in his eyes quickly disappeared, and with a gentle wave of his hand, the halberd flew back from hundreds of feet away, now stained with golden blood.
As the heavenly soldiers parted, they were shocked to find that the Lightning Goddess, who had been unstoppable in the ranks of the heavenly soldiers just moments before, was now pinned to the ground, her body shattered, her breath weak, a huge bloody hole in her chest, and her wide-open eyes still revealing her unwillingness.
"Where is the Mystic Maiden?"
Jiang Chengye asked, his voice hoarse.
"You lowly humans who dared to steal the throne, when the Heavenly Emperor awakens, you will all die..."
The Goddess of Lightning coughed up shattered internal organs from the corners of her mouth, and said with a face full of resentment.
"Never mind, it doesn't matter."
Jiang Chengye shook his head, reached out and pinched the lightning goddess's head from a distance, shattering it like a watermelon, instantly extinguishing its life force.
He waved his hand again, grabbing the Sky-Collision Mirror that had lost its dominance on the ground. After doing all this, Jiang Chengye was about to make a move to kill Nie Han and the others who were still being besieged by the heavenly soldiers on the other side, but suddenly his ears twitched.
After listening intently for a moment with a frown, Jiang Chengye said calmly, "Withdraw the troops!"
Splash!
Tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals came and went quickly, accompanied by a swirling cloud of mist. When all the commotion around them disappeared, Nie Han and Ning Quan, who had survived, looked at each other in disbelief.
If it weren't for the corpses scattered all over the Moon Palace, they would almost have thought that everything that had just happened was just their imagination.
...
In an unnamed part of the celestial realm, a waterfall cascades down from the sky. Strangely, this waterfall has no source or destination, like a mirage, yet it truly exists.
"We can stop now, this is the edge of the Heavenly Realm."
Tantai Qin, who had been quietly lying on Shen Qian's back, suddenly spoke.
As the light streaked past, Shen Qian landed by the waterfall with Old Man Hu. Shen Qian turned around, looked into the distance, and only relaxed after confirming that there were no pursuers.
At this moment, as the sound of something breaking through the air rang out, Zhao Keyi, Bai Fei, and the others also arrived one after another.
"Sink forward!"
After the Nine Heavens Battle, Zhao Keyi and Shen Qian, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, gave each other a bear hug.
"How did you end up in the Heavenly Realm?"
Shen Qian asked, somewhat puzzled.
Bai Fei, Zhao Keyi, and Sha Bi exchanged glances before speaking first: "Our teacher sent me."
"Teacher?" Shen Qian was taken aback, then realized, "Lord Yidao?"
“Hmm.” Bai Fei nodded. “He said there are some opportunities here, and if possible, take the ‘Heavenly Book’ back with you…”
“I was also sent here by my master, for reasons similar to Bai Fei’s,” Sha Bi said with a shrug.
The master that Sha Bi mentioned was undoubtedly Marquis Xuanming.
"And what about you?" Shen Qian looked at Zhao Keyi again.
"Hehe, I came in with Senior Qu Bai, but we got separated after we came in. The department head sent us, saying that you might need some help..."
Zhao Keyi scratched his head and said, "The minister also said that coming here would allow me to experience the fully formed form of the Innate Sacred Body in advance, which would be extremely beneficial to me."
"Then why didn't you lose your memory?" Shen Qian asked, puzzled.
"My teacher planted a spiritual imprint within me beforehand. Shortly after I was teleported into the Heavenly Realm, that imprint was activated, and I regained consciousness..."
Shabi explained.
Bai Fei and Zhao Keyi gave similar accounts, both saying they woke up voluntarily with the help of Wu Wei and Yidao Hou.
He remained silent for a moment before sinking.
It seems like everyone else has a powerful figure backing them up, while he's just a "son of a bitch"...
