Chapter 616: Demonic Specters and Divine Zombies
Inside the luxurious carriage, the women were happily chattering continuously. Their subject of conversation always revolved around the unborn child of Nangong Xiangyun and Long Yi.
Ximen Wuhen quietly sat at one side with a smile while listening attentively. Although she always had the role of younger sister in the midst of these women, she truly longed to integrate into this *** someday, becoming the real woman of her second brother. Unconsciously, her eyes blurred as if she was missing someone.
She gently lifted the window curtain of the carriage and watched outside. The newly built streets were bustling with activity. They were full of peddlers. Now, these streets however were the most crowded streets of Soaring Dragon City.
Ximen Wuhen sighed softly. The immatureness of those years when she was sixteen was long gone. Ten years could make a young girl truly grow up into a woman. Those ridiculous, hateful and sad feelings all dissipated, only this dense love fermented in the bottom of her heart.
When Ximen Wuhen was feeling sentiment, she accidentally saw two black robed figures from the corner of her eyes. She immediately became alert. She felt that one of those two black robed figures appeared very familiar.
Mu Hanyan sensed that someone inside the carriage was watching them and knew that they were already discovered, so she simply didn’t hide any longer and lifted the hood, revealing her beautiful face that could charm all living creatures.
“It’s her……” Ximen Wuhen was startled and muttered.
At that time, the remaining women noticed the unusual appearance of Ximen Wuhen and they all followed the gaze of Ximen Wuhen in succession.
…………
In the imperial palace of Soaring Dragon City, Yangsheng Hall, Dongfang Wan wearing silvery inlaid with a gold gown and golden jade hairpin solemnly sat on the master seat with noble air. In addition, two pretty maids were respectfully standing behind her.
Everyone knew that Dongfang Wan, this empress, usually had polite air when meeting guests. No one had ever seen her losing her temper. But, every time her expression stagnated and she emitted her might, no one dared to even breathe deeply in front of her.
At this moment, Dongfang Wan was staring at Mu Hanyan and Mu Jingjing standing not far away from her. The appearance of these two sisters was very similar, but their temperament was very different, one was beautiful enough to charm all living creatures and the other was beautiful like a fairy maiden. Dongfang Wan knew the matter of Mu Hanyan to some extent. Although she had ill-feeling towards her due to her plan to assassinate Ximen Nu, as a woman, she however pitied her a lot. If a woman didn’t love a man dearly, then how could she be willing to die under his sword?
“Empress, we have a very important matter to look for Long…… His Highness the Crown Prince. We beseech Empress to help us.” Mu Hanyan bit her lower lip and said kneeling on the floor. In this life, she had knelt only to heaven and her parents, she was too proud to kneel to any other person.
On the surface, Dongfang Wan still remained aloof and indifferent and indifferently said: “I wonder what noble errand made Miss Mu look for my son, there is no harm to tell us if it is convenient, but if it is inconvenient……, then forget it.”
Mu Hanyan trembled. Other than Long Yi, no one else knew the matter of Blue Moon Continent, could she speak out this matter?
“Empress, we truly have an urgent matter for looking for His Highness the Crown Prince, but it is not convenient to speak.” Mu Jingjing at one side also knelt and said.
Dongfang Wan raised her eyebrows but didn’t speak.
Mu Hanyan hesitated for a bit. Cyan Wind Empire didn’t have too much time, moreover, Dongfang Wan and these women around were also the close people of Long Yi, so, since they wanted to know, she might as well tell them.

“Empress, I will speak.” Mu Hanyan raised her head and said resolutely.
“Big sister, how can you……” Mu Jingjing urgently said, but she was stopped by a stern look of Mu Hanyan before she finished speaking.
But, just when Mu Hanyan wanted to speak out the overall matter of Blue Moon Continent, Dongfang Wan stood up with a smile and gently said: “Well, stand up, you two, since it is an urgent matter and so difficult to speak out, I will let it off. But, I will clearly tell you that, according to the news from Dragon Island, Yu’er has already left Dragon Island to the seas looking for the legendary Undersea City. His current whereabouts is unclear, who know in which corner of the sea he is.”

“Ah.” Mu Hanyan sisters were dumbfounded, could it be that Cyan Wind Empire was doomed to be destroyed?
“But, Yu’er will set up a transfer magic array after he settled down, then you can immediately meet him. So, if you two don’t mind, how about staying in the imperial palace for a few days? Perhaps, Yu’er will message us soon.” Seeing the despaired appearance of Mu Hanyan sisters, Dongfang Wan added.
………………….
Death Impasse, the innermost part of Smelting Death Cave, Long Yi and his pets appeared in one corner along with a flashing of white light.
Long Yi looked around, sizing up this Death Impasse which was dangerous beyond compare in the eyes of that Water Space Variant Beast. This was a very long and narrow cave. The temperature was very high, but it gives a kind of extremely gloomy sensation. It was very quiet inside but one could occasionally hear a sizzling sound created when a drop of magma fell on the ground. It was very loud and clear.
Long Yi licked his somewhat dry lips. His nerves were stretched taut. Although he had seen nothing so far, his beastly instinct was already screaming that danger was all around.
Long Two and Six Winged Angel Skeleton stood closely behind Long Yi. As for Little Three, Violent Lightning Beast and two Fire Qilins, they were in front of Long Yi, making a semi-circle formation.
Suddenly, Long Yi sensed a minute death qi fluctuation. And just when he wanted to make a move, Little Three in front of him trembled, then it burst out with holy light while roaring.
Then, a black qi surged and a ghastly humanoid creature gradually formed in front of them. Those sharp fangs, ominous eyes and entangled muscles, one could know that it was not anything good at first glance.
This was a resentment specter formed from a high-class demon. It was completely different from ordinary resentment specter, it actually didn’t fear holy light, on the contrary, it chose to make a move on Little Three, this god beast that possessed pure light physique.
Long Yi knew that the best way to deal with resentment specter, this kind of spirit creatures that were completely immune to ordinary physical attacks, was to use spirit magic to attack.
At that time, even without the order of Long Yi, Long Two holding a blood-red scythe rushed up to attack. He was also an undead creature, and the baleful qi around blood-red scythe soared. Upon seeing this, this demonic specter actually had some misgivings, but its speed was very fast and dense dark mist surged.
It goes without saying that the holy light of Little Three and Qing Holy Fire of Fire Qilin could effectively kill or wound resentment specters, but this demonic specter unexpectedly ignored them. It just dodged the attack of Long Two. As for the attacks of Little Three and Fire Qilin, it didn’t care about it at all.
A fierce battle unfolded in this narrow cave, but no one could cause any damage to the cave walls. Initially, Long Yi was worried about this cave collapsing due to the energy scattering everywhere being too huge, and magma above submerging this cave, but, after seeing this, he no longer worried.
Long Yi saw that the situation on the battlefield was in a stalemate, but he didn’t want to drag on this battle, so using a vast amount of spirit power, he surrounded that demonic specter completely.
That demonic specter saw that the situation was anything but reassuring and actually transformed into mist, wanting to disperse and slip out from the cracks of the encirclement of Long Yi’s spirit power. Merely, even after flying a lap around, it discovered that the encirclement of Long Yi’s spirit power didn’t have any crack, so it condensed into a humanoid figure again.
But, just when Long Yi thought that this demonic specter was already like a turtle in a jar, that demonic specter suddenly issued a sharp scream, then turning into an illusory arrow, it attacked one point of the spirit power encirclement.
Long Yi felt his glabella was burning. And that demonic specter unexpectedly disappeared quietly in the midst of his spirit power encirclement. This stunned him. As it turned out this demonic specter’s resentment power was very powerful. After a concentrated attack at one point, a tiny crack had appeared in the spirit power encirclement for a moment and it had escaped from this crack.
After that, death qi fluctuated violently in this narrow cave, and this cave which was quiet just a moment ago was thrown into disorder like boiling water. In an instant, cold wind whistled and various kinds of resentment specters appeared suddenly, in addition, all kinds of zombies filled this cave like ants. It was like he had instantly arrived at the Ninth Floor of Hell.
The cheeks of Long Yi twitched as he shouted “Good Gracious” in his heart while sweating profusely.
If these were just ordinary Undead Boss like Wicked Zombie, Dark Specter and so on, then he wouldn’t have any problem to kill any number of them with his current strength. But, these were demonic specters and divine zombies, rose from the elites that died in the war of Demon and God. With so many of them appearing all of a sudden, just the dense death qi and baleful aura were already pressuring Long Yi so much that it was getting hard to breath. It was useless to struggle against this number unless he had a strength to oppose the entire world by himself.
Long Yi took a deep breath and he stood still in the same place. In the confrontation of momentum, even though the other side was far superior, he would never shrink back. What’s more, he was just facing a group of strong death beings.
In the midst of thinking, the eyes of Long Yi flashed as he thought why that Water Space Variant Beast didn’t directly teleport him to this place where Blue Sea Divine Soul was located. Now, in this circumstance, fighting recklessly was definitely courting death, but if he didn’t fight recklessly, then he had to flee.
Thinking of that Water Space Variant Beast, Long Yi suddenly thought of the space magic Short Distance Space Teleportation Magic he had comprehended some time ago. For this, he had specially made a pile of space magic scrolls. He had never thought that it would be so useful this time.
Long Yi put away Long Two and others into dark dimension space, and just before those demonic specters and divine zombies attacked, he used that space magic scroll to teleport away.
