Chapter 374 Crisis
With Ye Ru's departure, this space returned to silence once more. Perhaps this sacred path will remain closed forever, and be forgotten in the long river of time.
Not only Ye Ru, but even Long Shang and the others were thrown out of that strange realm. Their situation was much worse than Ye Ru's.
If they heard that Ye Ru was asked to leave by the guardian of this sacred road and that young Confucian scholar, they might be so angry they'd vomit blood.
The main hall of the Sage City was deathly silent, but the bloodstains scattered around it suggested that things were not peaceful here.
In the distance, a scholar's arm was severed, blood spreading continuously. He gritted his teeth, his gaze fixed on some demons in the distance, filled with extreme anger.
"when!"
A muffled thud resounded here as a fan and a spear, carrying immense power, collided violently, and a ripple of energy spread outwards.
The scholar holding the folding fan was clearly not strong enough. He immediately retreated dozens of steps, his face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
However, he did not notice his own injuries. His gaze swept across the room and he saw that many people were seriously injured, which made his face extremely gloomy.
"Ye Ling, is it? Now that your human race has lost that boy named Ye Ru, you're so weak? Weren't you supposed to be able to hold things together?"
The person holding the folding fan was none other than Ye Ling, who had previously followed Ye Ru. Opposite him was a man holding a long spear, his eyes filled with mockery. After a moment, he let out a strange laugh and said sarcastically.
"Brother Ye, what should we do now? Without you here, and with the Dragon Clan's neutrality, if you don't come out soon, we're probably no match for them."
Not far from Ye Ling, a scholar covered in blood spoke in a deep voice.
"Phew, then we can only wait until Ye Ru comes out. It's infuriating that the demon race actually ambushed us. Of the dozens of scholars we had, less than half are still able to fight."
Ye Ling took a deep breath, his face turning extremely pale. He understood that without Ye Ru, he was no match for the opponent, and with the demons joining forces and the dragons being neutral, it would be even more difficult to resist.
"You're just asking for death. Today I'll kill you all and see what you can do then."
At that moment, a chilling laugh came from afar. A dark figure slowly emerged from among the demons, finally revealing its face. It was none other than Yao Xue, who was healing her wounds in the distance.
With the appearance of this demonic snow, the hearts of everyone present instantly turned cold. With their talents, breaking through the encirclement in this place would be harder than ascending to heaven.
"Yao Xue, do you really intend to provoke a great war between us?"
Ye Ling spoke slowly, her face fierce.
If this demonic snow appears, then they will truly have no chance. Moreover, the reason why the other party has delayed for so long is obviously because they are wary of Ye Ru, which is why they have taken so long to make their move.
"Hehe, Ye Ru isn't here now, what can you do to me? At first, I was really wary of Ye Ru, but now, as long as I kill you all, what will happen when he comes out?"
Upon hearing this, Yao Xue's lips curled into a smile, and she said coldly, while the demonic power within her body was slowly increasing at this moment.
"Fellow countrymen, although we come from different countries, serving our country is our common mission. So, follow me and let these demons know that we are not all cowards!"
Knowing that he and his companions were doomed, Ye Ling opened his folding fan, his eyes suddenly turning cold. Then, with a ferocious look on his face, he let out a fierce shout, and his inner energy surged out in an instant, finally transforming into a black line that shot out violently.
"We scholars must not live and die together; how can we cowardly cling to life? Kill them!"
Upon hearing this, the remaining scholars, who still possessed some talent, turned red in the face and immediately unleashed a furious barrage at the distant demons.
This scene caused many members of the dragon clan to narrow their eyes slightly.
"No wonder we learned the knowledge of the human race, but not their spirit. This is the reason."
A dragon looked at the scholars who were rushing forward one after another, sighed, and then slowly spoke.
"Unfortunately, it was like a moth drawn to a flame."
Another member of the dragon clan shook his head, seemingly with some regret, and then said...
In the distance, Yao Xue glanced indifferently at those who were stubbornly resisting, her hand slightly raised before suddenly falling:
"Kill them all for defiling the dignity of the demon race."
"Yes!"
A sinister look immediately appeared on the faces of the remaining demons, then they nodded sharply and rushed out.
However, before he could rush out for long, his body suddenly stiffened, and his head was thrown into the air. The next moment, his body fell limply to the ground.
As the body collapsed, the face of a somewhat immature boy slowly emerged.
The smell of blood permeated the air, causing everyone present to change their expressions and turn their gazes sharply toward that spot.
When they saw this person, they all gasped in shock, for it was none other than Ye Ru.
"Brother Ye? You're out?"
Upon seeing Ye Ru's face, Ye Ling was first stunned, then said in disbelief.
"Well, thankfully I made it in time."
Ye Ru glanced around for a moment and saw that the main hall was in a complete mess, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes.
"these people"
"I know."
Before Ye Ling could finish speaking, Ye Ru nodded and smiled at her, but that smile sent a chill down everyone's spine.
"Ye Ru?"
Yao Xue's gaze also flickered slightly, as if she too was wary of Ye Ru.
After all, he had been defeated by Ye Ru in the last battle.
"I never expected them to resort to such underhanded tactics. The demon race really will stop at nothing."
Ye Ru turned his head and looked at Yao Xue, his eyes filled with killing intent. If he had arrived a step later, all the humans present would probably have perished here.
"Hmph, you've just entered that bronze gate, so you must be weak right now. I'll wait for you to tire yourself out. Do you think you can be my match?"
Yao Xue sneered, his words filled with disdain. He knew the dangers inside the bronze door, so he wasn't worried at all. On the contrary, he was extremely murderous. Today, he was determined to leave Ye Ru here to vent his hatred.
"Is it?"
Ye Ru smirked, then waved his hand, and a towering ancient tree instantly appeared beside him, its rich aura of talent permeating the surrounding world.
