Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 865 Underestimation

"I will take a look." Shen Liqiu stood up and rushed out of the courtyard.

Boom!

As she moved for a few minutes, Shen Liqiu immediately heard a deafening explosion coming from the southern direction. Undoubtedly, it was the Skymist Dragon's attack.

Shen Liqiu halted her track and took out the transmission jade, trying to contact Yun Lintian. However, she soon discovered that she couldn't reach out to him. It was as though something was blocking the connection.

"Where did he go?" Shen Liqiu was puzzled.

Boom! Boom!

All of a sudden, Shen Liqiu saw several living dead flying up into the air in the far distance. She quickly spread her Spiritual Sense out and saw a familiar figure. "Uncle Xiao?"

At this moment, Xiao Weiyuan was surrounded by the skeleton army. Because his profound energy was completely depleted. All he could do was use brute force to push the enemy away.

Xiao Weiyuan's face turned solemn when he saw the living dead regenerate their bodies and continue to swarm toward him. This was simply an impossible battle.

"Uncle Xiao!" While Xiao Weiyuan lacked his brain up, he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from the distance. And when he looked up, he saw Shen Liqiu rushing toward him and helping him deal with the living dead nearby.

"Miss!" Xiao Weiyuan was surprised and relieved to see her.

Shen Liqiu frowned slightly when she discovered the injury on Xiao Weiyuan's body. To her knowledge, these living dead couldn't possibly harm him.

However, this wasn't a good place to inquire about it. Shen Liqiu grabbed Xiao Weiyuan and brought him out of the siege, returning to the tall building in the distance.

"What happened, Uncle Xiao? Who hurt you?" Shen Liqiu asked in doubt.

The moment she grabbed Xiao Weiyuan's arm, she found out the latter's profound energy was empty. Although Xiao Weiyuan's profound energy was low compared to the other monarchs, he was still the monarch, after all. What could make him empty his profound energy?

Xiao Weiyuan took a breather and said solemnly. "We have to escape, Miss. The enemy is too powerful."

"The Poison Valley?" Shen Liqiu asked.

Xiao Weiyuan nodded with a serious expression. "His realm is the peak Monarch, but his battle prowess can rival the early level of the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm expert. I am not his opponent at all."

Shen Lintian's brows involuntarily creased together. Since Xiao Weiyuan wasn't their opponent, she was nothing but an ant in front of the enemy… What could she do now?

"The timing is really good." Shen Liqiu couldn't help complaining. If the enemy had arrived earlier before Yun Lintian left, with Yun Lintian's abnormal battle prowess, there would still be a chance to fight.

Since she couldn't do anything, Shen Liqiu decided to bring Xiao Weiyuan to Tang Suyin's courtyard first.

Boom!

At the Vermilion Bird gate, Chen Peizhi and Hu Xingjuan were lying powerlessly on the ground. Several hideous wounds could be seen all over their bodies, and they were in the blink of death.

Meanwhile, Hei Lei was slightly better. His current appearance was entirely different from before. His long hair was disheveled, and his robe was tattered. Blood gushed out of a hole in his shoulder, making him look terribly miserable.

Hei Lei's eyes flickered as he stared at the Skymist Dragon in the sky. He had severely underestimated it. This skeleton dragon was actually at the peak of the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm. It was impossible for him to fight it.

"Young Master…" Chen Peizhi cried for help as she looked at the approaching living dead in horror.

Hu Xingjun was no exception. The calmness she always possessed was no longer there. Her eyes were filled with despair as she looked at Hei Lei pleadingly.

The two had acted as a shield for Hei Lei and ended up in this state. It wasn't that they wanted to, but they simply couldn't disobey Hei Lei's order.

"Don't worry. Your life will be useful for me to escape." Hei Lei said mercilessly. He even used his profound energy to lift the two up and threw them to the Skymist Dragon.

The expressions of Chen Peizhi and Hu Xingjun changed drastically. No matter how hard they tried to release their power, it was futile in the end.

Chen Peizhi glared at Hei Lei, who was escaping, with deep hatred as she roared. "Hei Lei! I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"

Puff!

Instantly, the two were torn apart by the Skymist Dragon's sharp claw. Blood and organs were scattering all over the place, drenching several living dead on the ground.

Commonly, the monarch's body was as tough as steel, but it was nothing but paper in front of the Skymist Dragon's claw. This showed how terrifying the Skymist Dragon was.

When the Skymist Dragon finished the two, Hei Lei's figure was nowhere to be seen now. He had long escaped from the dragon's perception range.

***

At this moment, Shen Liqiu and Xiao Weiyuan returned to Tang Suyin's courtyard and went directly to the room.

"Senior, this is my uncle, Xiao Weiyuan." Shen Liqiu immediately introduced Xiao Weiyuan to Tang Suyin.

Along the way, Xiao Weiyuan listened to Shen Liqiu's explanation about Tang Suyin, his heart could not be calmed for a long time. Especially when he faced Tang Suyin, who was a skeleton, like this. He couldn't help getting nervous.

"Junior Xiao Weiyuan greets Holy Maiden Tang." Xiao Weiyuan performed a great courtesy by bowing his head and downed to one knee.

"Get up. There's no need to be polite." Tang Suyin said softly. Her gentle and pleasant voice immediately dispelled the nervousness in Xiao Weiyuan's heart.

Tang Suyin looked at Xiao Weiyuan for a moment and said. "Tyrannical God inheritance? I didn't expect to see his successor here."

Xiao Weiyuan was surprised and asked cautiously. "Holy Maiden knows Master?"

A thousand years ago, when Xiao Weiyuan was young, he was naughty and secretly left his house to play in a forest. Fate seemed to arrange him to be a renowned figure. He accidentally stumbled into an immortal cave and found the Tyrannical God Divine Art.

Although he didn't know the identity of the person who left the inheritance behind, he always worshiped him as his master. He couldn't help getting excited upon hearing Tang Suyin's words.
