Chapter 821: Chapter 806: Danger Returns
“Elders, was it you who saved me?” Xiao Ye withdrew his aura, seeing the elders in their weakened state, he paused and then asked.
He had suddenly awakened from a severely injured state, and with his strength rising so drastically, even a fool could guess it had to do with these elders.
“Xiao Ye, you rascal, you still remember us!” Elder Yang stepped out, scolding with a smile.
Xiao Ye scratched his head, realizing that after waking up, he had been immersed in the joy of his own transformation, not noticing that the elders of the Holy Palace were all present.
“Elder Yang, what exactly happened? I remember being gravely injured after the battle with Jun Shitian, I thought I was close to death, and given Jun Shitian’s nature, he wouldn’t have spared me.”
“And why have you all returned suddenly? Also, where is Jun Shitian now?” Xiao Ye inquired.
Elder Yang shook his head helplessly, it seemed this kid really didn’t remember anything.
He took out an elixir from his Space Ring and consumed it, then with the other elders, recounted the events that had transpired during this period.
“Emperor Martial Infusion?”
Hearing this, Xiao Ye was shocked.
This term, he was hearing for the first time, he hadn’t expected such a powerful secret technique to exist in the world.
“So, it’s thanks to the elders that my cultivation increased so much suddenly, and my injuries healed?” Xiao Ye took a deep breath, clasped his hands in respect towards the eleven elders.
“Xiao Ye sincerely thanks the eleven elders for saving my life,” Xiao Ye said earnestly.
Although Elder Yang and the others didn’t elaborate on the Emperor Martial Infusion and its toll on them, Xiao Ye wasn’t stupid, he could tell at a glance that it must be a technique that consumed immense mental and Emperor Martial power.
After all, for Emperor Martial Realm experts, a King Martial Realm martial artist’s body was still too fragile, not to mention someone like him who was near death.
Looking at the elders’ weakened state, barely able to stand, Xiao Ye was deeply moved.
Without these elders, he might have already fallen, let alone experienced such a sudden increase in cultivation.
Most importantly, the elders knew that with his true strength and cultivation, it was impossible to contend with Jun Shitian, yet they didn’t mention it.
“Alright, you are a disciple of the Holy Palace, and we as the elders of the Holy Palace, it is only natural we save you, there’s no need to thank us, if you truly feel grateful, then cultivate well, grow into a strong person soon, become the pillar of our Holy Palace, and make our Holy Palace stronger in the Central State!”
The Grand Elder of the Holy Palace Main Hall laughed and said.
The other elders laughed upon hearing this, very satisfied with Xiao Ye’s attitude.
“Disciples will definitely remember the teachings of the elders,” Xiao Ye said respectfully, bowing.
“You should go out first to help guard, we these old fellows, for the sake of healing you, have consumed too much and must quickly regulate our energy and cultivate.” The Grand Elder of the Holy Palace Main Hall said.
But at this moment——
Boom!
A sound as if coming from the depths of the abyss suddenly exploded in the air, spreading in all directions, as if an earthquake had occurred.
Immediately after, an oppressive and despair-inducing demonic qi suddenly spread out.
“Hehehe, eleven Emperor Realm elders of Taiyi Palace, fifteen devilish disciples, and twenty-three inner sect disciples of Piaomiao Sect, are you all here? I, the sixth protector Demon Saber under the Demon Palace Master of the Ultimate Palace, have come specifically to experience your high skills.”
As the demonic qi spread, a hoarse voice full of soul-shaking power resonated as if echoing in everyone’s ears.
“A protector from the Extreme Palace Demon Palace?”
The eleven Emperor Realm elders, who were just about to rest in the dilapidated palace, all turned pale upon hearing.
Didn’t expect the strong ones of the Ultimate Palace to come eventually!
Judging by the momentum of the voice’s owner, he is definitely a strong person of the Emperor Martial Realm!
The devilish disciples guarding outside the palace, as well as the Piaomiao Sect disciples, were all dumbfounded looking at the scene unfolding before them.
“Fellow junior brothers, follow me out to battle, it’s time to fight for our lives!” The Grand Elder of the Taiyi Palace’s Main Hall stood up from the ground, stumbled before stabilizing himself, and once again fell to the ground.
Don’t be fooled by the fact he is a Titled Emperor Martial strongman, but previously when infusing Emperor Martial power into Xiao Ye, he was the main director, putting in the most effort, so his exhaustion was beyond severe, his Emperor Martial power nearly depleted, with no strength left to exert.
The other ten elders weren’t much better, one even got too anxious and spat a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale as paper.
What to do?
In that moment, the faces of the eleven Emperor Realm elders turned to despair.
They consumed too much, who could withstand an attack from the Extreme Palace’s strongmen?
Let alone the Holy Palace’s devilish disciples, even they themselves would all be killed.
“Elders, if you trust me, then let me take the reins, I can help you hold off the Extreme Palace’s strongmen for a period, during which you can restore your cultivation without worry,”
As the eleven Emperor Realm elders were in deep anxiety, Xiao Ye stood out and shouted.
“You?”
All eleven Emperor Martial Realm elders were stunned.
Plainly, Xiao Ye’s cultivation and strength were indeed formidable, but compared to the ferocious strongmen of the Extreme Palace, he was still too inferior, after all, their foundation wasn’t on the same level.
Before the elders could refuse, the Grand Elder of the Holy Palace Main Hall recalled that Xiao Ye possessed a Martial Arts Spring ten times larger than a normal martial artist’s, and said solemnly, “Alright, since you have this confidence, we old folks will rely on you then.”
“Time of a stick of incense, as long as you and the disciples outside can hold off these Extreme Palace martial artists for the time of a stick of incense, we can make a move again.”
“Senior Brother!”
Elder Yang was shocked, letting Xiao Ye stop the Emperor Realm strongmen of the Extreme Palace for the time of a stick of incense, wasn’t that like sending him to his death?
“Elder Yang, don’t worry, my current strength won’t be so easily defeated!” Xiao Ye’s lips curled into a confident smile as he extended his hand, and instantly, the Xiao Blade, placed in the corner of the dilapidated palace, transformed into a streak of light and flew directly into his hand.
Boom!
At this moment, Xiao Ye’s jet-black eyes burst with incomparable divine radiance, a towering invincible war intent surged from his body into the sky, his whole person moved at an extremely fast speed, disappearing from the palace.
“Junior Brothers, let’s quickly take the time to regulate our energy and cultivate, or with our current state, we couldn’t even match up to Xiao Ye,” the Grand Elder of the Holy Palace Main Hall shouted, quickly sitting cross-legged and closing his eyes.
The situation had already reached a perilous level.
