Electric currents spread across the sky like spider webs, and heavy air pressure was released in the interlaced lightning, almost making it hard for people to breathe...
Gu Yangyang looked up, and the rumbling sound of thunder continued in her ears.
She had seen such a scene in the Jinlin Palace before, but she was still shocked at this moment...
The Soul Gathering Fairy Lamp was in Yan Wu's hands, and it was truly able to bring its effect into full play. After all, he was probably the only one who could use the Soul Gathering Fairy Lamp to attract the thunder...
The speed at which the heavenly thunder condensed was very fast. In just a short while, dozens of thunder balls as thick as buckets condensed above the head of the Old Man Emperor.
The Old Emperor opened his dark, empty eyes in horror and tried to use the Circulating Spirit Pearl to fight against it, but he found that the Circulating Spirit Pearl had stopped working in his body at some point...!
“Damn it…! Damn it!”
"No... No! This is impossible! I don't believe it...!"
He shouted angrily and tried to escape, but he was surrounded by lightning clusters falling from the sky and had nowhere to escape...
The ball of thunder grew bigger and bigger, expanding until it was about to fall in the next second!
At this time, Wanqi Xiu glanced at Ji Xiao and the other two who were not far away and made a "tsk" sound.
Although he still disliked these brats, he took Gu Yangyang's feelings into consideration and pulled the three of them into the barrier, and reinforced the barrier a lot...
"boom--"
A loud bang erupted in the sky!
A bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket fell from the sky and struck directly on the black fog where the Old Emperor was!
"ah--!!!"
A scream suddenly came from the black fog!
Immediately afterwards, the second lightning struck!
The third, fourth...
The hoarse screams of the old man became more and more tragic, and the black mist that enveloped him gradually dissipated, revealing his ugly body that looked like a dead tree...
The flowing spirit beads in his body stopped, not only did it no longer supply him with spiritual power and vitality, it even began to absorb all that the old emperor had previously obtained from the spirit beads...
The old emperor's face began to rot, and his bony hands also began to corrode...
The process of spitting out spiritual power was extremely painful, coupled with the thunder that fell from the sky. For a moment, the only sound in the entire world except for the roar of thunder was the screams of the Old Man Emperor...!
The man stood in the air, his snow-white robe fluttering.
He watched expressionlessly as the old man was struck into ashes bit by bit by the thunderbolt, and there was no trace of emotion or anger in his indifferent eyes...
He was so calm that it seemed as if he was not the one who caused the thunderbolt...
The condensed thunder balls became fewer and fewer, and all of them struck the Old Emperor.
The Old Emperor screamed miserably, his bony arms corroded and broken, his already distorted face became even more distorted, and every time he was struck by lightning, his body dissipated a little!
Gradually, his body became fainter and fainter... and his screams became weaker and weaker...
“Impossible…! Impossible! I won’t die! I won’t die…!”
“I won’t die—!!!”
The last bolt of thunder fell, and the Old Emperor’s figure completely disappeared!
The only thing left in the air was his unwilling cry...
The thunder stopped and the sky gradually returned to darkness...
After a while, a ray of light penetrated the sky, lighting up the dark sky...
Then more and more light penetrated, dispersing the remaining black fog in the sky until the sky returned to its original bright color...!
Someone outside the palace poked his head out of the door, and when he found that the originally dark sky had returned to normal, he couldn't help but push the door and walked out.
More and more people came out of the door, and many of them gathered together, cheering at the clear sky...
"It's the gods who came to save us!"
"It's the gods who came to save us!"
"Very good……!"
…
Unfortunately, the people in the palace could not hear the cheers of the people, and even if they heard it, they probably would not have any emotions.
After all, in their eyes, only Gu Yangyang is the most important...
But now that the old emperor is dead, the difficult person in front of him has once again become Yan Wu...
Gu Yangyang watched the man fall from the sky and land in front of her.
Somehow, even though the Old Emperor had been eliminated, she still felt nervous.
This tension was even more serious than when he faced the Old Man Emperor before...
“Master…” Her eyes fell on the man’s hands.
The Soul Gathering Immortal Lamp, the Golden Seal Silkworm Cocoon and the Circulating Spirit Pearl taken out from the Old Man Emperor's body were all in his hands at this time.
She wanted to take it back, but when she looked into the man's blue eyes, she didn't know how to start...
Seeing her hesitation, Yan Wu said nothing.
His indifferent gaze only fell on the girl, and he ignored the vigilant people behind her.
"Heh, what are you doing?" Wanqi Xiu, sensing that the atmosphere was wrong, sneered and broke the silence first.
He stood behind Gu Yangyang, and his tall figure formed a confrontation with Yan Wu who was standing in front of Gu Yangyang.
Ji Xiao and the other two calmed down and stood beside Gu Yangyang. They looked at Yan Wu who was blocked outside, and all of them pursed their lips and looked alert...
Gu Yangyang's back was stiff, and she clearly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
She looked up at the indifferent man in front of her. Even though he was not her real appearance, the face of the mermaid in her mind had to overlap with his...
Suddenly, she felt a little bitter in her heart...
Wanqi Xiu had always been very sensitive to her emotions. He couldn't bear to watch this anymore and reached out to pull her behind him, but he only saw the man opposite him slowly raise his hand -
The slender fingers tapped lightly.
A huge amount of spiritual power overflowed from the fingertips.
“Pah—”
The solid barrier was like a piece of paper, breaking with a sound!
The barrier shattered into pieces, hitting Wanqi Xiu's face.
His face turned dark and gloomy, and in an instant he became extremely ugly.
"Yan, Wu, what do you mean?" he said through gritted teeth.
If Gu Yangyang hadn't been there, he would have attacked even if he couldn't beat the other person. He wouldn't have clenched his fists and endured it like he is now...
Gu Yangyang, who witnessed the barrier shattering, did not expect such a thing to happen. Especially the expressionless look on the man's face made her feel that they were in two opposing camps at this time...!
Yan Wu did not give any response. His only response was to send his sword energy towards them without hesitation!
The biting cold is overwhelming and irresistible!
Except for Gu Yangyang, all the others were beaten back by dozens of
"Yan Wu! What do you want to do?!" she raised her voice and stopped calling the other party "Master".
Why can't you just talk it out... why do you have to use force...
She thought that since he killed the old emperor, they would stand on his side...
