Chapter 579: Hold On
Ye Fei's face drained of color instantly, and the pain in her abdomen made it almost impossible for her to straighten up.
When he saw Ye Fei stumble back two steps and was about to fall, panic rose in Huang Rongyu's eyes. Just as he was about to help Ye Fei up, the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a flash of silver light in front of him.
The next second, a fierce wind swept in, and the bronze statue's head and body separated instantly. The airflow also slowed down considerably at that moment.
Through the gradually widening gap at the neck, Huang Rongyu finally saw clearly—what separated the bronze statue's head from its body was merely a thin, hair-like silver thread!
A young man dressed in a black brocade robe stood behind the bronze statue. He slightly raised his hand, and the silver threads were slowly tucked into his robe.
Huang Rongyu looked at Li Yuan in surprise. What was he doing here?
Li Yuan swiftly moved past Huang Rongyu and steadily held Ye Fei in his arms. When his gaze fell upon the fabric of her clothes on her lower abdomen, which was stained with a glaring crimson blood, a strong killing intent flashed in his eyes.
Almost at that moment, Huang Rongyu clearly felt a chilling aura surrounding him. This chilling aura was like long needles aimed directly at him. If he made the slightest movement, the needles would instantly turn his body into a honeycomb!
The silent eye contact, tinged with the glint of swords, made the atmosphere increasingly tense and deadly.
Just then, his robe was gently tugged. Li Yuan looked down at the girl in his arms. She weakly opened her eyes and uttered two words with great difficulty: "No..."
Hearing her voice, barely audible, Li Yuan felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart. He held Ye Fei tightly and whispered, "Hang in there."
He no longer spared any further glances for Huang Rongyu, and directly flew away with Ye Fei.
Huang Rongyu tried to chase after him, but several chains that rose from the ground tightly bound his limbs!
Huang Tianqi, who was hiding behind the tree, could not escape the chains that climbed over like venomous snakes. The two of them were tightly bound by the chains and could not move!
Damn it!
Huang Rongyu gritted his teeth, driven by anger, and suddenly a blinding light burst forth from his body—
With a crisp sound, the chains binding Huang Rongyu were instantly crushed by the burst of light-elemental spiritual energy!
Fragments of the chain fell to the ground, and the blood-red mark connecting the Demon-Slaying Stone flickered briefly before disappearing.
The Ten Directions Exorcising Array vanished just like that, and the pink peach blossom forest reappeared. Everything that had just happened seemed like a mere illusionary dream.
A teleportation array also appeared not far away, signifying that the Ten Directions Exorcising Array had been broken.
Huang Rongyu had no time to care about why the formation had suddenly broken. He stared intently at the spot where Li Yuan and Ye Fei had last disappeared, his fists clenched tightly.
"Hey! Help me unlock these chains!" Huang Tianqi realized he couldn't unlock the chains and could only helplessly beg Huang Rongyu for help.
Huang Rongyu flicked his sleeve, and a sharp light flew from his fingertip, striking the chain with a snap.
Feeling the chains on his body loosen, Huang Tianqi quickly got up and shook his body to remove the chains. He then looked at Huang Rongyu, who was standing motionless in place.
"You..." Huang Tian started to speak, but in the end, he couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Should we thank him?
No... He is the noble Crown Prince, we absolutely cannot do anything that would humiliate him!
The clueless Huang Tianqi was still trying to mentally prepare himself when he looked up and saw that Huang Rongyu had walked away—he wasn't heading towards the teleportation array, but towards the direction where Ye Fei had been carried away by that boy!
"Hey! What are you doing?"
Huang Tianqi was stunned, and without thinking, he followed: "You still want to go find Ye Fei?!"
Huang Rongyu did not answer. His handsome face was so gloomy that it seemed to drip water. He stared indifferently ahead and walked faster and faster.
