Just as they had turned around a bend, they weare astonished to see a beautiful white and blue palace that was built along the cliff The only way up to that palace was a series of wooden platfor the steep cliff
Yunzi co construction, requiring a lot of planning and skilled craftsmen”
Yi Ping had overheard her and he was sighing, “I hope that such a construction is without the loss of any lives”
Shen Xingyue glanced secretly at Yi Ping and her eyes were shi+ning with resonant at his compassion
Lingfeng nodded as she looked gently at him, “Nevertheless since this palace has already been completed, we should ad this possible so that future generations would be in awe of their skills”
Youxue was in no randeur of this hidden place It was because she kneorried Yi Ping was and that a dangerous foe awaited them in that beautiful palace
Not long ago, they had discovered the secrets of the Celestial Palace They were a group of Dark Celestials that had to resort to feeding on the vital blood of martial exponents in order to nourish themselves
She had personally witnessed the h pure luck that they were lucky to survive that encounter
They were all wary of the old s
Before long, they were already on the steep wooden platforate of the palace
The palace was large, er than the exact appearances on the outside
The weird thing was, there was not a single guard or people everywhere in sight!
Yunzi was anxious The entire at The sheer size of this place would require many to maintain it The courtyards were cleanly swept, the walls ell painted and everything was too orderly But there was not a single person other than the old ht!
Instead of bringing the thearden
Youxue said coldly, “Oldus? This looks like the perfect place for an ambush isn’t it? You don’t want to dirty your place with our blood so you are taking us to a fitting place for our execution?”
Even Yi Ping was also getting iot my child? Where is…”
Yunzi touched Yi Ping lightly on his shoulder as she said gently, “It could just be a ruse With the combined martial skills of the Joyful Goddess, Celestial Fairy and the Heavenly Temptress, it is unlikely for anyone to defeat them”
She lied of course and would like to believe it herself but the Celestial Palace was the sacred ground of some of the most powerful exponents in the martial fraternity So far they had only e Even with just the two of them, they were not easy to handle!
Shen Xingyue said in a low voice, “Be careful There are others here”
All of a sudden, the old e that was over a man-made lake and said “They are here”
“Good, I have been waiting”
It was une!
Yi Ping immediately clenched his fists!
Even before he had approached them, a powerful martial force could be felt and the intense pressure of hiseveryone!
Al white hair appeared at the other end of the bridge and there was a young petite female attendant behind him
The young petite fe an infant in her arms!
What was striking about the young petite fee, her eyes were also crimson and her white was silver!
They were both Dark Celestials!
The baby began to cry aloud as though she could sense her father presence and she wanted to get his attention
Yi Ping turned pale inized frohter!
The infant’s mother was Lele the Joyful Goddess and she was born with crimson eyes that were unlike others
The infant was also very special There was a strong bond between thenize her empathically
Yi Ping was now tre
It was not fear but anger that had caused him to tremble
Shen Xingyue was unhappy to see the Dark Celestials and herintent!
The Celestial Liege spotted her and he froze in his tracks as he looked at her gray eyes, “It see and the Jade Ehly attained Celestial in the martial fraternity?”
Shen Xingyue hummed softly, “Why did you invite us here for?”
The Celestial Liege laughed as he looked at Yi Ping, “We have ht we have is indecisive I have finally figured out why I am unable to overcome you the last time…”
Yi Ping shouted angrily, “Return my child to me now! And what did you do with Lele and the others?!”
The Celestial Liege said coldly, “Yi Ping, only if you are able defeatyour baby and tell you their whereabouts What do you say?”
Just as Yi Ping was about to step forward, Yunzi panicky said to hiroup He ainst so many of us”
Youxue nodded as she said coldly, “It seeiven him the last time!”
The Celestial Liege looked at her with interest and he was s you as well”
Lingfeng had already displayed a oes for us as well!”
The Celestial Liege laughed, “You are the Holy Maiden You knoon’t kill you Your blood is too valuable for us”
Lingfeng replied coldly, “But I can’t say the saround”
The Celestial Liege sant smirk, “You can try but you won’t succeed”
Shen Xingyue had already stepped forward and was at the bridge, “You are a practitioner of the Celestial Force?”
It was because she had already sensed the absorbing force of the Celestial Force around him!
The Celestial Liege was slightly taken aback
This e without any hint of tu and unaffected by his powerful Celestial Force!
He nodded coldly, “Yes, this is the Celestial Force”
Shen Xingyue said coldly, “Good! The Celestial Force is one of the most epitome divine skills I would like to kno ainst yours!”
However the Celestial Liege ignored her and said, “Yi Ping, do you dare to take me one to one first? You don’t have any choice If you can defeat me, then I will return your baby to you”
As to an to pat the infant that was in the arhtly as he said “She is so adorable Unfortunate, soon she will lose her life because her father dare not take me one on one”
Yi Ping raised his martial force with his Absolute Equilibriue, resisting the irresistible weakening drain of the Celestial Force He said to Shen Xingyue, “Xingyue, please step back This fight is between us”
Shen Xingyue was e with bloodshot eyes “Despicable If you still have any honor, don’t use the infant as a hostage!”
She had already hinted to Yi Ping that the Celestial Force was an epito the time that she was in the Ascension Sect But the deter so she stepped back reluctantly with a heavy heart!
Youxue, Lingfeng and Yunzi were all equally upset and their frustrations were shown in their eyes but they dared notto Yi Ping!
The fee had also stepped back The air was filled with the suffocating air of martial force that threatened to knock down the weaker opponents that dare to even approach the Celestial Liege!
Yunzi sighed It was exactly the sa that they could approach such a tidal force and h, she lifted her martial power to display the Invincible Divine Force as three bea visible blue spheres surrounded her
Youxue had also surrounded herself with the Divine Virtuous Force as she looked quietly at the Celestial Liege as she stole a look at Shen Xingyue who had nodded in return They were not going to idle and si to happen next!
Shen Xingyue and Youxue were both experts in speed attacking techniques and were known for their swiftnessto grab the infant Therefore they decided to wait until the Celestial Force that was hindering them could sufficiently be weakened before they made their move
When Yi Ping had stepped on the bridge, the Celestial Force of the Celestial Liege had already been increased a few folds!
This forced Lingfeng to slide backward as her martial poas insufficient to resist it
Her Holy Aamate Force was a variant of the Celestial Force and was inal
Shen Xingyue looked at Lingfeng curiously Soiven that she was the Heaveness
Meanwhile, the oldat a nearby pavilion and he had taken out a pipe and he was s from his pipe casually!
