Chapter 477 - Choice (1/2)

The three Imperial Lords watched what was happening in Snow Wind Pa.s.s from the other side of the World Entrance.

“Liu Qiyue cast Phoenix’s Nirvana, and has unleashed her phoenix flames without restraint?” When Lady Blackmoon saw this scene, she sent a voice transmission. “Her phoenix flames are protecting Snow Wind Pa.s.s, which spans 75 kilometers. She is using an extremely astonis.h.i.+ng amount of phoenix flames.”

“That’s right.” Imperial Lord Starquix nodded and sent a voice transmission. “With such a crazy eruption of strength, she will burn her lifespan several times faster than normal.”

During Phoenix’s Nirvana, if one didn’t do anything, the energy expenditure would be minimal. There would be minimal burden on one’s body. It consumed one’s lifespan at a low rate.

If one were to use a ma.s.sive amount of phoenix flames to protect a ma.s.sive city-like what Liu Qiyue was currently doing-one’s lifespan would be consumed several times faster than normal.

“She’s going all out just to save over ten million mortals?” Emperor Roc was surprised by her actions, causing him to laugh. “I’m somewhat impressed by this girl.”

“She’s still Meng Chuan’s wife,” said Lady Blackmoon. “Meng Chuan has ruined many of our plans.”

“I’ve read the intelligence on them. Meng Chuan and his wife, Liu Qiyue, were childhood sweethearts. They cultivated together on Archean Mountain and left the mountain together. The relations.h.i.+p between this husband-wife duo is very deep,” said Imperial Lord Starquix via voice transmission. “I’m wondering if Meng Chuan’s personality will change drastically after Liu Qiyue dies to save these mortals. Will his cultivation come to a halt?”

“Back then, King True Martial sank to a nadir because of love.” Emperor Roc smiled and nodded. “However, Meng Chuan rose to prominence much faster than King True Martial. He probably won’t sink into oblivion easily.”

“If he does sink into oblivion, it will be an unexpected gain,” said Lady Blackmoon laughingly via voice transmission.

As Liu Qiyue used her phoenix flames to protect the entire Snow Wind Pa.s.s, she drew her bow and shot arrows at the black water.

Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+

She could increase her offensive power by using the arrows.

Her arrows tore through the churning black water, arcing within it. The arrows parted the black water completely. However, the vast black water didn’t suffer any damage.

After casting Phoenix’s Nirvana, Liu Qiyue’s peak Regis G.o.dfiend strength rose to the peak Creation realm. Her arrows had the strength of a threshold Imperial Lord. Every arrow was slightly stronger than Monarch Peac.o.c.k’s full strength. However, they couldn’t injure Patriarch Poison Dragon at all.

Ah Chuan told me that Patriarch Poison Dragon’s strength increased greatly after the three Imperial Lords nurtured it. It’s undying body practically makes it an unkillable fifth Firmament demon monarch. I can’t do anything to its body. Liu Qiyue understood this when she saw Patriarch Poison Dragon appear. I’m consuming my lifespan too quickly because my phoenix flames are spread across a 100-kilometer radius.

I have to suppress Patriarch Poison Dragon. With a thought, Liu Qiyue immediately attempted to suppress the black water with a large amount of phoenix flames.

Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+

The vast Blackwater Body suddenly separated into nine black dragons. Every black dragon was 15 to 20 kilometers long. The black dragons could be seen in Snow Wind Pa.s.s’s northern, southern, eastern, and western regions. Some flew in the sky, while some were underground.

A portion of the black water clung to the World Entrance tightly, while another portion coiled around it.

The nine black dragons roared.

No matter how the phoenix flames suppressed them, the nine black dragons remained completely unharmed.

“What’s wrong?”

“What’s happening in the sky?”.

Snow Wind Pa.s.s’s countless residents saw golden flames filling the sky. The flames covered everything in the city. Through the flames, one could barely see the churning black water beyond. Soon, the black water transformed into ma.s.sive black dragons!

Several ma.s.sive black dragons swam in the sky.

The residents watched everything in horror. “Are ten million mortals really worth you consuming so much of your lifespan? Patriarch Poison Dragon’s voice resounded across the city as he watched Liu Qiyu leisurely.

By ma.s.sacring Snow Wind Pa.s.s’s populationwhich was over ten million-he would gain over a billion credits. Liu Qiyue’s life was of equal worth. Since Liu Qiyue was Meng Chuan’s wife and a Regis G.o.dfiend with a phoenix bloodline, the demons had placed a ma.s.sive bounty on her-her life was worth one billion credits.

“Is it worth it?” Liu Qiyue didn’t hesitate to protect Snow Wind Pa.s.s. When she had first left the mountain with her husband, they had risked their lives at North River Pa.s.s. Back then, G.o.dfiends had died in battle.

When she and her husband lived incognito at Gu Mountain Prefecture, they had worked together to kill demon monarchs. They had protected many county cities and prefecture cities during their stay at Gu Mountain Prefecture. During that time, she had also seen many G.o.dfiends die in battle.

Later, when she was in charge of guarding a city, she saw Marquis G.o.dfiends—who were guarding the city-also dying in battle.

The couple had lived to this day, but many of their companions had fallen.

Her fallen companions had sacrificed their lives to fend off the demons and protect the mortals. How could Liu Qiyue retreat?

Boom!
