733 A Last Minute Reversal (1/2)
Could it be the three elders of the Heaven Dao Pavilion?
Impossible!
Barring the fact that they were right in front of them, the Heaven Dao Pavilion's stance was a tacit acknowledgment of the tactic of using Yan Xiu as a hostage. Naturally, they would not ambush him.
So what if it was not the Heaven Dao Pavilion?
Who else could it be?
Yuan Rong had no idea at all because he never expected anyone to ambush him. Although he was not mentally prepared for it, the moment he felt the chill, he reacted to it appropriate. Straightaway, he made a black light screen appear behind him.
After all, under his present situation, he could not just let Yan Xiu go. Hence, the most important thing for him to do was to block the ambush.
The black screen of light rose like a barrier.
The moment it appeared, a huge sound resounded. Then, Yuan Rong felt a powerful force hitting the light screen.
There really was an ambush?!
When Yuan Rong felt this powerful energy, he turned to look behind them. Then, he saw a pair of eyes, a pair of very sharp eyes.
Evidently, it was a youth.
His elegant robes, which were inky-green, were slightly torn. His skin was dark and he had powerful muscles. He looked like a wild beast from the jungles.
”Where did this guy come from?!” Yuan Rong was shocked. After all, the person who appeared in front of him was totally unlike what he had imagined.
He was not ethereal like a normal Heaven Dao Pavilion disciple. In contrast, he brimmed with a wild aura.
Who was it!
Who was this rascal!
Yuan Rong was infuriated.
Of course, Yuan Rong's anger provoked a huge commotion. The Heaven Dao Pavilion elders and disciples all noticed him.
”It's Yan Qing!”
”He ambushed Yuan Rong?!”
”What's going on?”
The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples did not fully understand. After all, Yan Qing was supposedly a Heaven Dao Pavilion disciple just like them.
Hence, they did not pay too much attention to him.
However, it was evident that Yan Qing's behavior was not ordered by the elders. His actions went against their orders.
”Yan Qing! You…” Sixth Elder clearly saw Yan Qing ambushing Yuan Rong. He was just about to say something when something made his eyes bulge.
This was because after Yan Qing's fist landed on the black screen, he did not stop.
A figure rushed out from the calm lake. The figure gripped a long spear tightly in his hands, which seemed to be formed entirely from blood-red light.
A Sage!
This was Sixth Elder's first reaction. His second reaction was to question why did a Sage appear? After all, he attacked Yuan Rong together with Yan Qing.
Most importantly, the blood-red spear was…
The Dao of Asura!
”It's Yan Qianli!” Fourth Elder blurted out even though he had not yet seen his face.
For someone who became a Sage via the Dao of Asura and could attack Yuan Rong at this moment, there was no one else other than Yan Qianli who was capable.
”Big brother, be careful!” Second Elder of the Black Moon Island noticed the figure which leaped out from the lake. An intense look of panic appeared in his eyes.
However, it was far too late.
This was because the blood-red spear had already pierced the black screen. Furthermore, it penetrated it with a powerful force and instantly made a hole.
”Pssst!” The blood-red spear pierced into Yuan Rong's shoulder. Then, Yuan Rong's body was lifted up into the sky.
”You dare to hurt my grandson! I'll f*cking kill you!” The Sage cursed in an un-sagely way.
Then, countless red rays of light, which were raindrops, surged from the guy's figure as they attacked Yuan Rong.
It was a fluid and fast motion.
Yuan Rong's face turned pale. It was not because of his shoulder injury. However, the moment he was lifted up into the air, Yan Xiu fell into Yan Qing's hands.
”Ah!” Yuan Rong was unwilling to accept it.
He could not accept the fact that just as the mission was about to be completed, it was interrupted once more by another unforeseen event.
However, he really did not expect two ambushers. Furthermore, one came from behind and one came from in front at such a close proximity. There was no way he could escape.
He roared in fury and frustration. His body started to exude a thick black light, which received the blood-red rays of light shooting flying toward him.
