Chapter 355: Falling Out

Chen Mo stared at the sun in the sky. The heat soared in Purple Sun Valley, and purple rays of light flared. Right now, it was already nearly noon, the hottest time of day.

Purple Sun Valley's topography was peculiar, scorched by the intense sun. The purple light would make it several dozen degrees hotter compared to other places.

A troupe of Star Soldiers already stood guard outside. In the center of the Purple Sun Valley, the woman who was as apathetic and somber as the Dead Sea, "Demon Faced Military Commander" Yu Yanluo was quietly sitting cross-legged on the ground at the moment.

Sun Yingmeng walked over and gave her the "Fire God Heavenly Lord Soup" that she concocted. Yu Yanluo thanked her. Under the glow of the sunlight, Chen Mo noticed that Yu Juluo's skin was frighteningly pale, not the kind that seemed as supple as ice and snow, but rather a wretched shade that was practically wan.

"Can you still hold up? I can see your skin seems to have no color to it." Chen Mo asked.

Yu Juluo apathetically replied: "This is unrelated to my injury. I am naturally like this."

Chen Mo grunted. Although he was immensely relieved, he still felt a bit of sympathy. Yu Juluo was indifferent. Sun Yingmeng handed the Fire God Heavenly Lord Soup to Chen Mo and teased: "Don't be concerned for no reason. Remember, while you're sucking out the fragment, you must not be distracted. The Absolute Nine Yin will grow when it meets Yin and dispel when it meets Yang. If you lose focus, the Absolute Nine Yin will be much more difficult to extract with your Pure Yang Star Energy.

"I understand."

"I'll help you by standing guard outside." Li Xiao scratched her nose.

Wen Zhenzi hesitated. In the end, he gave up speaking, for he knew he was unable to persuade the Military Commander now. "I will also help the Military Commander stand guard. Chen Mo, you must save her. If something happens to the Military Commander, then I, Wen Zhenzi, shall take revenge even if it costs me my life."

"Having this kind of resolve is pretty good." Chen Mo smiled.

The time was close at hand. Chen Mo and Yu Juluo walked into the array, and an intense blaze raged that formed a circle obscuring everything on the outside. The Pure Yang's fire energy became even more concentrated.

Chen Mo and Yu Juluo faced one another. Neither said a word, but they sat on mats together with perfect coordination.

Chen Mo activated the Star Manual Of Masters Gan And Shi, bringing out his Star Energy. Yu Juluo also inhaled deeply, suppressing her own Star Energy as she opened her mouth.

Chen Mo opened his mouth as well, entering a state of meditation. A wisp of crimson fog like a thin sword-qi floated into Yu Juluo's abdomen. The woman's four pupils were shaken. She suppressed the sensation of being invaded and looked at Chen Mo in slight bewilderment.

How was this man's Star Energy so strong, surprisingly to the point it made her feel pressure.

This sensation of being invaded was more unbearable than Yu Juluo had imagined. The woman released a dreamy moan; Chen Mo remained unmoved. Under the Bodhi Soul Technique, that Pure Yang Star Energy was already completely coursing through Yu Juluo's body. At this moment, the woman was practically defenseless. With but a thought, Chen Mo's Star Energy intruding into her body was sufficient to kill her without leaving behind a body to bury.

If the great general of the Nine Elders Of Sui died on the spot, he would also receive Yu Juluo's Star Energy.

The thought was but fleeting in Chen Mo's mind, for he had no plans of this at all. The Absolute Nine Yin in Yu Juluo's body began to struggle when it felt the Yang Qi's intrusion.

No wonder no one ever used this method to dispel the Absolute Nine Yin. From Chen Mo's perspective, this was practically no different from killing the Star General. With just the smallest difference in thought, his Star Energy would lose control and destroy Yu Juluo.

…

Yang Shuang opened the door and entered the room: "Elder Sister, everything has already been arranged. Yu Zan has gone to Purple Sun Valley to kill Yu Juluo."

"Elder SIster, do you feel that Yu Zan has a chance?" Yang Shuang lowered her voice.

"Although she received my Dragon Crystal Star Armor, Yu Juluo should still have some foundation. You go help her. Find an opportunity, then move on it." Yang Su slightly smiled.

"Exactly what I was thinking." Yang Shuang chuckled, "I long tired of looking at Yu Yanluo. When I kill this woman, I can obtain her Star Energy, and I can also occupy the position as one of Nine Elders' Four Heavenly Kings."

"Bushuang,¹ you cannot be careless. I am somewhat unable to fathom that Mount Hua brat." Yang Su ordered.

"Relax, Sister Yang Su, be at ease about handling Mount Hua. I naturally will use full power." Whenever Yang Su addressed her by True Name, Yang Bushuang knew this elegantly dressed elder sister was truly worried. However, Mountain Backed King Yang Bushuang felt she was being overly worried this time. In any case, she was the Heavenly Shiren Star.² A trifling Star Warrior was not worth her fear.

…

Sun Yingmeng crouched on the ground, continuing to concoct medicine. Li Xiao asked what she was refining, and Sun Yingmeng answered that after Chen Mo extracted Yu Juluo's Absolute Nine Yin, the two of them would be very exhausted. She was refining some medicinal soup to supplement their Star Energy and let them recover quicker.

Li Xiao was a bit jealous, "When did you have this kind of bedside manner."

The two of them laughed and chatted. All of a sudden, a vague moan came from inside the ring of fire. The two girls slightly blushed.

Wen Zhenzi, who had been concentrating with all his might, immediately changed expressions and asked: "What is he doing!"

"If you have something pointy inside your body, it's very normal to yelp when it comes out. Much ado about nothing. Relax, Chen Mo isn't that lecherous." Sun Yingmeng waved her hand, content to not care.

"Yingmeng, are sure Chen Mo isn't lecherous?" Li Xiao snorted.

"Is there anyone who would speak of their Junior Brother like this?" Sun Yingmeng rolled her eyes.

Wen Zhenzi wrinkled his brow. Without Yu Juluo's command, he did not dare be rash.

After a moment, Li Xiao and Sun Yingmeng retracted their smiles from their chat. They gravely stood up, and Wen Zhenzi also lifted his gaze.

"Yingmeng, be careful." Li Xiao instructed.

Sun Yingmeng looked. A group of cavalry stormed into the Purple Sun Valley. Black smoke billowed, its chilling cold air not dispersing. The woman leading them was draped in beautiful Star Crystal Armor, yet her expression was incomparably malicious.

"Lady Yu Zan!!" Wen Zhenzi cupped his fist.

"Do you still regard me as your superior?" "Evil Faced Banner Commander" Yu Qingluo sneered, "You did not inform me of something so important, are you afraid that I would harm my Elder Sister?"

Wen Zhenzi's expression was a bit unsightly.

Li Xiao jeered: "Yu Zan, if you truly care for your Elder Sister, just stand guard to the side."

"Li Xiao." Yu Qingluo's eyes were full of disdain. She waved her hand, and the Star Soldiers behind her followed her. These Star Soldiers originally belonged to the Western Lin Star Field's Military Commander. However, a portion of them came under the control of Qingluo, who was her little sister.

Unlike bodyguards, the Star Soldiers were like puppets, completely lacking consciousness. At their most basic, they were puppets that obeyed whoever their creator designated, just like Xie Diaobing's Northern Mansion Soldiers.

"Lady Yu Zan, please keep your distance."

On this side, Yu Juluo's Star Soldiers all brought out weapons, assuming an iron drum formation.

Wen Zhenzi urgently shouted.

"Bastard, how can you leave Elder Sister's safety to that man. You truly are stupid. Today, I will bring Elder Sister back." Yu Zan sneered.

"But this is for the purpose of saving the Military Commander."

"I have my methods. Enough chatter, those who obstruct me die!" Yu Qingluo showed a malevolent expression.

Two Star Soldiers that walked forward were broken by a magnificent spear-light. Duke Wu Of Liang Li Su stood firm, her spear like a dragon, carrying herself tall. "Yu Zan, I think you're conspiring against your Elder Sister? Do you want to take her place as the Military Commander?" Li Xiao ridiculed her. She saw through the girl's thoughts at once.

Yu Qingluo: "Mount Hua disciples, This King shall teach you a lesson today, to make you realize who this Western Lin Star Field belongs to."

When she finished, the Star Soldiers received orders, and they lifted their weapons and attacked.

"Yellow Rank: Frost Scatterer!!"

Li Xiao swept her spear. Spear-light flew like snow, specks of it scattered like freezing frost. When they landed on the Star Soldiers, their entire bodies shuddered, and they were directly injured severely by the Yellow Rank and forced back.

A swathe of frost landed on Yu Qingluo's chest and detonated against her clothes, but the Evil Faced Banner Commander sneered. She raised her iron whip Star Weapon and attacked.

The whip cracked, crisp to the bone.

Li Xiao suffered the strike and was knocked back several dozen meters.

"Xiaoxiao." Sun Yingmeng cried out in worry. She wanted to step forward and help.

Li Xiao waved her off. "Yingmeng, don't come here." The girl's expression was cold and unshakeable. Her finger wiped the wound on her cheek that was deep enough to show bone, and she lapped up the blood on her finger.

So formidable, how did this Yu Zan become so strong in an instant.

"Heavenly Spirit Grade Astral Treasure?" Li Xiao looked at Yu Zan's armor and finally realized the reason.

"Li Su, if you continue to hinder me, you will die here today!!" Yu Qingluo roared with laughter.

"Bring it on!"

Li Xiao leapt forward, her Crimson Blood Flying Serpent Spear coiled like a blood-colored python. The blood-light was chilling, descending from the sky. If this was before, Yu Qingluo would still be somewhat afraid, after all, Li Xiao's Realm had already reached Heavenly Spirit Three Calamities Stage.³ She would not have been a match, but with this treasure in her possession, she basically had no fear.

With her Star Energy suddenly surging, Yu Qingluo brandished her iron whip.

Dark Rank – Blind!

The iron whip issued a cracking sound, its form indistinct in the air. Li Xiao raised her spear to counterattack when just at this moment, a ray of Star Energy all of a sudden struck her, compromising Li Xiao's body techniques. Her eyes were blinded, and she was run through by the iron whip's killing intent. Li Xiao screamed as she fell to the ground. One of her hands clutched her eyes, blood spurting everywhere, a miserable sight.

Yu Qingluo was taken aback. She turned her head back to glance at a faraway mountain grove. Knowing that someone helped her, it appeared that time was running short. "I will spare you today."

Yu Zan spoke no further and ordered the Star Soldiers to restrain her for the time being while she herself assaulted the ring of fire.

"Xiaoxiao." Sun Yingmeng heart broke seeing Li Xiao's sorry figure.

"Hurry and stop her." Li Xiao yelled.

Bang, bang.

Yu Qingluo instantly slayed several of the Star Soldiers obstructing her.

"Lady Yu Zan, can it be you really want to?" Wen Zhenzi's face was covered in frost.

"Wen Zhenzi, I know you're in love with my elder sister. Now is the best time for you to sign a contract with Elder Sister. Do you want to be a man, or do you want to continue being a dog. You choose." Yu Zan sneered.

Wen Zhenzi was shaken.

"You despicable bitch." Li Xiao roared. Her spear attacked, a thousand spear-lights twisting apart the air. Shockingly, this was an Earth Rank, "Thousand Island Fragments!"

"Still so tenacious even when you're blind, how courageous." Yu Qingluo shouted. The Heavenly Spirit Grade Astral Treasure, Dragon Crystal Star Armor, released light rays and Star Energy.

Surprisingly, it directly contended against Li Xiao's Earth Rank, "Thousand Island Fragments."

The thousand rays of spear-light twisted apart Yu Qingluo's field of view. The Star Soldiers at her side were completely disintegrated and scattered to the wind. In an instant, frightening killing intent completely consumed her.

There was no time for Li Xiao to relax. She heard a chilling voice.

Black light shattered and charged out of her Earth Rank.

"Courting death!!"

Yu Qingluo attacked.
