"Let's go into the water."
Tang Wan, skilled and daring, waded directly into the blood-red lake water, followed by Fu Tian and Wei Yue.
Within the Beast King's domain, waiting any longer will only lead to certain death. It's better to make a final stand while we have the Zhu Yan Heart. If we can control the Zhu Yan Heart to absorb the power of the Divine Vein and feed it back, then the reappearance of the Zhu Yan will be defeated without any resistance.
The other two groups were all stunned by Tang Wan and her two companions' actions. Entering Hanyang Lake at this critical juncture was undoubtedly like snatching food from a tiger's mouth; a slight misstep could mean certain death.
"Entering Hanyang Lake now might allow us to gain a share of the power that revived the Zhu Yan."
Ji Jingyun's gaze fell on the people beside him, and after a long pause, he continued, "What are your plans? Are you going to wait and let fate decide for us, or will you enter the lake and change your own destiny through your actions?"
“Going down now will only lead to death!” Cangjie Wen disagreed with going down to the lake. He was a genius of the Cangjie clan and certainly could not die here, so he preferred to stay hidden.
"Then once the beastmen obtain the power of the Zhu Yan, do you think they will let us go?" Ji Jingyun retorted sharply.
"That's a matter for the future. Anyway, there are still tens of thousands of new students at Huasheng Academy. As long as I hide well, they won't be able to kill me." Cang Jiewen didn't want to bear too much responsibility at the moment, because that would cost him his life.
"Ha, what a cowardly coward!" Ji Jingyun perfectly embodied youthful arrogance, directly mocking Cang Jiewen, who showed no fear whatsoever at the third stage of the Heavenly Spirit Realm.
"I think it's worth a shot."
Tai Haoming, who had always been low-key, suddenly spoke up. He said again, "I wonder if you have noticed that there is a mysterious figure hiding among this year's freshmen. If we take action, he will definitely assist us in secret, and maybe then we can turn the tide."
"There's no need to argue. This time, the most important thing about going down to the lake isn't strength, but the treasures you possess. So I propose that each of the Three Sovereigns families send one person to carry a replica of the ancestral artifact down to the lake, while the others return to the new recruits to protect them and preserve fresh blood for Zhongzhou," Suiren Aoxue said very seriously.
“I agree!” Taihaoming said first.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Ji Jingyun shrugged and said casually, "I have no objection. Anyway, I'm not afraid of dying."
"I'll go to the Suiren clan."
Suiren Aoxue did not designate anyone else, even though the people she brought this time would unconditionally obey her orders. But now it was not a question of who should or should not go into the lake, but whether the task of destroying Zhu Yan's remains could be effectively completed. If they failed, then Hancheng would become everyone's grave.
“Then I’ll do it without hesitation!” Taihao Ming said with a smile.
The scions of the Divine Emperor Family are not spoiled brats. They not only possess excellent talent, but also have outstanding character. Otherwise, their family could not have survived for thousands of years.
“Jingyun, let me go. I am a Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivator and I am familiar with Shennongjia under your command. I can play a greater role here.” Lie Shanming stepped forward. He didn’t want to take the lead, but he was worried about Ji Jingyun’s safety.
"No way, what if you run away with my Shennongjia!" Ji Jingyun blurted out.
Upon hearing this, Lie Shanming's face showed an embarrassed expression.
Seeing this, Ji Jingyun smiled slyly, and then said very seriously, "Unless we both go together, you take me and I take Shennongjia, if you want to run away, you can only take me with you."
Everyone: "..."
At a life-or-death moment, you're engaging in ambiguous behavior; you're truly inhuman.
"We don't care, as long as you are confident in the ancestral artifact, you can do what you are capable of," Suiren Aoxue said calmly.
"Then let's all four of us go into the water."
Ji Jingyun was very curious about what lay beneath Hanyang Lake. If this was handled well, everyone who had participated in the Battle of Hanyang Lake would benefit, since it was a great demon born from five divine veins, and its essence was unimaginable.
With a few splashes, the four entered Hanyang Lake without any hesitation, while the others quickly dispersed and returned to their respective human teams.
"Chiyu, now only the Heart Fire Divine Meridian is missing from the five divine meridians corresponding to the five internal organs. Are you sure you don't want to attack the Holy Spirit Clan?" Hongshao was puzzled. She didn't understand what Chiyu was thinking or why he hadn't launched an attack yet.
"Sweet potato, you must remember, we are demons, and Zhu Yan is a beast. Although we both belong to the beast race, we are not of our kind, and our hearts are bound to be different! Therefore, Zhu Yan's reappearance can only serve us. He is an appendage of our demon race, not a being that dominates us."
Akabane looked at the dark red lake water and let out a cold laugh.
"Should we still support the Bear King?"
Akabane shook his head and said, "The Zhu Yan will kill anything that interferes with its will, and it will also attack those who possess the Zhu Yan's heart."
"Therefore, we will enter the lake after they have exhausted some of Zhu Yan's strength, and then we can directly reap the fruits of victory."
Hongshao was getting a little impatient, so she asked, "What should we do now?"
"Doesn't that human like to jump around? Let's go have some fun with him now." Akabane had a playful smile on his lips, but his eyes were full of killing intent.
By now, he had figured out who was behind it all, and only killing could quell his hatred for such a person.
"But the Beast King's domain is still dozens of miles in diameter, so finding him won't be easy!" Although Hongshao was also furious, she knew the priorities. The most urgent task was to capture Zhu Yan.
However, Akabane clearly had a different idea from her. He said quietly, "I don't know why, but ever since this human appeared, I've had a strange connection with him. I can actually find his location by relying on this special connection."
