Seeing that Wu Renbi had not yet made a move, Queen Zhou Ruyun spoke in a deep voice, “What are you waiting for?”
“Your Majesty, he…”
Wu Renbi tried to say something, but was interrupted by Zhou Ruyun, “What ‘he’? This place is extremely secretive. No matter what we do, no one will know. If we let him live and the news of the regicide leaks, can you bear the responsibility?”
Upon hearing this, Wu Renbi’s entire body trembled.
He did not continue speaking.
Instead, he sighed and stepped forward, beginning to form various seals with his hands, setting up multiple protective barriers around them.
Since there was no choice, everything must be flawless!
Seeing this situation, Yin Zhi knew they could not delay any further.
He immediately shouted at Yin Feijing, “Go! Otherwise, we’ll all die here.”
“We’ll leave together!”
Yin Feijing still wanted to take Yin Zhi and Ye Yu with her.
This move surprised Ye Yu.
He hadn’t expected that this fox demon, facing great danger, would still be thinking about them, the humans. It was already quite rare.
Ye Yu then grabbed Yin Feijing’s wrist and said in a deep voice, “Stop thinking about escaping. The hidden passageway is already sealed with a formation. If we want to survive, we must kill them!”
Upon hearing these words, Yin Feijing’s eyes widened in shock.
Even the escape route was sealed?
But to fight their way out, what a challenge it was.
Just dealing with a single Integration-level formation master was enough to wipe them all out. In this situation, how could they possibly kill so many enemies?
Seeing Yin Feijing’s pale face, Ye Yu said in a serious tone, “Remember to pay more!”
Yin Feijing and Yin Zhi were momentarily stunned, not understanding why Ye Yu suddenly said this.
However, the next second, under their gaze, Ye Yu decisively moved forward.
Seeing this, Wu Renbi was also very surprised.
Was this guy seeking death?
Since that’s the case, what’s the difficulty in fulfilling his wish?
Wu Renbi stopped and formed different seals with his hands.
Four directions around Ye Yu immediately lit up with brilliant light.
A scorching aura materialized out of nowhere.
Soon after, four vivid fire dragons appeared.
They surrounded Ye Yu, roaring with savage fury.
Just as everyone believed Ye Yu would be swallowed by the fire dragons on the spot, he suddenly stepped to the left, unleashing the Profound Heart Sword technique.
A streak of sword energy erupted.
In an instant, it sliced forward.
The formation was instantly shattered, and the light on the eastern side vanished.
The four fire dragons around him paused momentarily, then disappeared into the air.
Wu Renbi spat blood and staggered back a few steps.
This was the backlash from the formation being broken.
The dozen or so attendants around immediately came forward to support him.
Yet Wu Renbi paid them no heed, only gazing at Ye Yu in disbelief, muttering, “Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could you know the core of my formation?”
Ye Yu slowly stepped forward, forming seals with his hands, pressing them against the ground.
“The Four Dragons Annihilation Array has extremely high lethality. But it also demands extremely high skills from the formation master. You only grasped its form, not its essence. I really don’t know how you reached the Integration realm!”
“What I have here is the true Four Dragons Annihilation. Take a good look and learn for your next life!”
After Ye Yu finished speaking, a brilliant light burst from his palm.
A towering flame suddenly appeared, causing everyone around to retreat in haste.
Next, a massive fire dragon emerged.
Due to its enormous size, it instantly shattered the stone ceiling of the secret chamber.
Bright sunlight poured in.
Combined with the firelight, Zhou Ruyun and the dozen attendants could barely open their eyes.
Wu Renbi, however, turned pale as a ghost.
Soon after, the other three fire dragons appeared as well.
They were enveloped in flames, but their scales were still clearly visible, like true dragons in the world.
The same four dragons, yet their aura was worlds apart.
Feeling this terrifying destructive aura, Wu Renbi laughed self-deprecatingly, “The Four Dragons Annihilation, it turns out, the key is not in the four dragons, but in the word ‘annihilation’!”
“I understand now! I truly understand!”
With a thought from Ye Yu, the four fire dragons instantly engulfed Wu Renbi, Zhou Ruyun, and the dozen attendants.
Then the four dragons converged into a ball, suddenly exploding, forming a fiery tornado.
This created an enormous, bottomless pit ahead.
After a long time, when the heat waves dissipated, Yin Zhi and Yin Feijing looked forward in disbelief.
Before them, aside from Ye Yu, there was no one else alive.
The giant pit was filled with scorched earth.
The scene was apocalyptic!
Yin Zhi and Yin Feijing could not comprehend.
How did Ye Yu, with mere Divine Transformation cultivation, manage to defeat Wu Renbi, an Integration expert?
It was simply incredible.
Ye Yu slowly turned around, raising a hand to close Yin Feijing’s gaping mouth.
“Don’t say anything. Remember to pay up. I only accept spiritual artifacts.”
……
The next day.
Yin Zhi regained control over the entire Lan Kingdom.
Not only did he list Zhou Ruyun and Wu Renbi, along with many other advisors, as traitors, he also carried out a bloody purge of the Lan Kingdom’s ministers.
Anyone who was close to Zhou Ruyun or the Crown Prince was killed!
In an instant, all the ministers of the Lan Kingdom were in a state of panic.
No one dared to oppose Yin Feijing’s succession to the throne.
They could all see.
Yin Zhi, once lacking fighting spirit, now wielded iron-fisted methods.
When he said he would kill, he truly did!
However, it was surprising that Yin Zhi suddenly stopped mentioning abdication.
This wasn’t due to him being insincere or planning to burn bridges. It was because Yin Feijing strongly opposed it.
She had no intention of managing a human kingdom. Such matters were better handled by Yin Zhi himself.
Yin Feijing’s aspiration was to return to the Southern Barbarian Continent and become the leader of the Qingqiu Fox Clan.
At that time, she would also persuade her aunt, Zhou Xuan, to come to the Lan Kingdom, and rekindle her past with Yin Zhi.
Upon hearing this proposal, Yin Zhi was overjoyed, unable to stop smiling.
On the spot, he put half of the Lan Kingdom’s treasury into a storage ring and handed it to Yin Feijing.
He even called it a “greeting gift from the future uncle-in-law.”
However, before Yin Feijing could even warm up to these items, Ye Yu took them away on the spot.
What a joke.
Did they really think he was talking about the payment casually?
The items in the storage ring, consider them as compensation for saving your lives.
Ye Yu decided to take a bit of a loss. The previously agreed mid-grade spiritual artifact wasn’t needed anymore.
This was enough!
This declaration made Yin Feijing extremely angry.
A bit of a loss?
This ring contained a medium-grade spiritual artifact, eight high-grade artifacts, and countless spirit stones.
The value was astronomical!
She couldn’t understand how he could say he was taking a loss.
Yin Feijing wanted to snatch it back,
But after evaluating their strengths in her mind, she ultimately abandoned the idea.
She pulled Ye Yu to a secluded spot and said quietly, “You can have the items. But what about the antidote?”
“Antidote?”
Ye Yu was momentarily caught off guard.
Then he suddenly remembered the earlier scene where he had teased Yin Feijing. He immediately said, “Oh, you mean the Heart Sealing Pill?”
Yin Feijing nodded.
Ye Yu smiled and said, “That pill? There’s no antidote!”
