Netherworld Retrograde-Chapter 502 - 236: Three-Way Melee_2

These three Ye Boshous were strangers to him, perhaps from other Giant Cities.

Fortunately, Li Yelai had a strong physique and managed to repel the encirclement of the three Ye Boshous.

But at the same time, one of the Ye Boshous clenched his fist fiercely, and a wall of fire rose in front of Li Yelai, illuminating the dim hall and blocking the gap in the doorway.

As the light of the fire flared up, Li Yelai saw the girl he had not seen for a long time.

Cheese... she was not far away, her once delicate face now deathly pale.

Her captivating peach-blossom eyes were filled with tears, and even her pale lips trembled.

In the instant their gazes met, Li Yelai saw solidified pain and despair in the girl’s eyes. Tears slid down her cheeks, making her look both agonized and helpless, as if she would shatter at any moment.

This sent a sharp pain through Li Yelai’s heart.

"We had a promise, I was to send you off..." her eyes seemed to say, and her lips lightly parted.

The ancient Dragon Language roared out!

That was her most powerful mode of attack. When she’d obtained Dragon Roar, Li Yelai had once asked her to test it out to see the result, but she had firmly refused.

"Such a technique is too dangerous; how could I use it on a good friend? Besides, if anything happened to you, I’d have to care for you for the rest of your life. Although... that wouldn’t be impossible," she had said at the time. Her eyes and brows curved as if she were truly considering how to care for Li Yelai for a lifetime.

Now, it seemed she had finally made up her mind.

The best way to face a corrupted friend was... to send him off.

Uncontrolled by emotions, even in immense pain, she remembered the promise with her friend.

What a good woman indeed...

Dragon Roar, Spirit Annihilation!

In that instant, Li Yelai felt as if he saw a massive Ancient Dragon charging at him, roaring furiously and biting down!

"You’d better remember to take care of me!"

Li Yelai’s mind trembled violently, blood seeping from his mouth and nose, his brain felt as if it were being torn and chewed by the Ancient Dragon, even his vision blurring.

Several Church believers nearby were even worse off, bleeding from every orifice, screaming in pain.

Li Yelai clenched his teeth, but his hand holding the Black Gold Dragon Pattern Halberd stabbed out in an instant.

But it did not attack Cheese, who had released Spirit Annihilation, instead it pierced through a Church elite next to him, using him as a shield, and with a burst of strength in his legs, he plunged into the firewall.

The terrifying Spiritual Flames burned on the body of that elite, igniting his Spiritual Barrier and Battle Armor, as well as his flesh.

Amidst his wails, the soul firewall was forcefully dispersed.

Li Yelai burst through the door, the remaining Church elites followed closely behind.

Shaking off the charred elite, Li Yelai pressed on at full speed, not daring to stop for a moment.

And those believers left in the hall turned into crazed screaming figures, throwing themselves at Champion Team One.

Attempting to buy their Divine Chosen time.

"Wait and see! The other two Divine Chosens will surely come to support Lord Di Yun!"

"The mighty Champion Team One, consorting with those from the Eternal Life Faction, hahaha, who is the real traitor of humanity?"

"Lord Di Yun is invincible, he will eventually destroy you all!"

"Blood Sacrifice to the Blood God, offering skulls to the throne!"

They screamed and prayed, picking up weapons, and engaged in a fight to the death with Champion Team One but were quickly eliminated.

"Even in death, you heap filth upon us! Who the hell is in league with the Eternal Life Faction?" The faces of the Ye Boshous turned ominously dark and frightening, "Chase after him, capture that traitor!"

"He’s cursed with You Must Meet Strong Enemies; if we follow, we’ll find him eventually!"

"The wounded stay here and regroup, the rest follow me!"

"Call the other teams, have them support immediately, take down Di Yun!"

Some Ye Boshous turned to Cheese and asked in a low voice, "Comrade Cheese, are you... okay? Will you leave the next action to us?"

Cheese did not respond, but silently took out a candy from her bosom and swallowed it.

Then she followed her teammates out the door.

"My promise to him... is still unfulfilled..." Her voice was hoarse, like a sob.

...

On the other side, Li Yelai spat out blood but kept up his rapid pace.

Only six believers remained behind him.

His trusted aide Stalwart had died in battle; he had wanted to progress so badly, but following Li Yelai had proven just how frail life could be.

The Spiritual Ability Equipment originally carried by Stalwart was now on a Fifth Sense Church elite.

At that moment, this elite excitedly said, "Lord Di Yun, it’s the Blood Drink Chosen One!"

Following his words, Li Yelai also sensed the Spiritual Energy Fluctuation in the Void Realm.

From his perception, it must be the Blood Drink Chosen One.

Her task was originally to assist Red Fury, the two of them executing a righteous two-on-one against Mo Ya, a Divine Chosen from the Eternal Life Faction.

Now, had she discovered that something had gone wrong on Li Yelai’s end and came immediately for support?

She sure valued him highly.

At the same time, this also brought a wave of relief to Li Yelai’s heart.

Thank goodness, thank goodness, had she arrived earlier, she would have directly encountered Champion Team One.

Even if Champion Team One could handle a Sixth Sense Divine Chosen, the loss would be significant.

From this perspective, it was a good thing that they hadn’t met.

"Let’s go, join up with her!" Li Yelai said.

The remaining few believers nodded repeatedly and moved quickly toward the sensed position.

However, when they approached the sensed location, they saw a huge, deep scar.

The scar extended from the ground all the way down into the depths, incredibly straight. One could even see the sky through the cracks.

As if... it was a sword? A sword that had cleaved through the earth?

Was Xue Yin’s swordsmanship so powerful? Or did the Blood God bestow her with power, making her this formidable?

Li Yelai pondered in his heart and continued moving forward.

It wasn’t long before Li Yelai and his group saw a pile of ruins.

Clearly, there had been a fierce battle here, causing a large area of collapse, and the Spiritual Energy from Chaos was surging in every corner.

"Lord Blood Drink’s might is unparalleled!" the believers exclaimed with joy, sensing that Blood Drink was not far away, and they all hurried forward.

Then... everyone stopped in their tracks.

Because inside a transit hall, Li Yelai saw Blood Drink, or rather, half of Blood Drink?

As a Chaos Divine Chosen, Blood Drink was leaning against a broken wall inside a deep pit.

Her lower half had vanished, her spilled organs and intestines were dragging on the ground, tracing a bloody streak. Her crimson double-handed longsword lay slashed apart, fallen beside her.

She... she had fled here!

Yet, Blood Drink was not dead, but struggling to breathe, her face filled with panic and unease.

She saw Li Yelai and reached out desperately.

"Take me away... Lord Di Yun, quickly take me away!" she wailed.

But it made Li Yelai freeze, take you away?

You’re supposed to be coming to support me?

Why the fuck didn’t you say so earlier? The guy who took you down, why the fuck should I come here to die?

Who could it be? On this battlefield, was there really someone else who could slay a Sixth Sense Divine Chosen?

Could it be... Captain Yang Chen had arrived?

Other than the Champion, who else could slay a Sixth Sense Divine Chosen?

Black Umbrella? That shouldn’t be, that’s a Divine Chosen.

However, shadowy figures began to emerge from all around the ruins.

Their black coats fluttered in the wind, their lifeless eyes looking down at Li Yelai below.

"Who would have thought such a thing could happen?"

"We were just thinking of catching some luckier fugitives, but meeting you here was unexpected."

"This is indeed... a double blessing!"

Black Umbrella’s sinister voice echoed from all directions.

Meanwhile, ’Floating’ walked up to Blood Drink, his steel knife piercing straight through her heart, and he twisted it forcefully.

Within the Void Realm, Blood Drink’s Spiritual Ability Projection exploded, causing a huge storm that enveloped everything and twisted even the stars.

At this moment, all the major forces felt this disturbance. A Chaos Divine Chosen was exiled, and the power of Chaos roared within the Void Realm.

"Now that the only troublemaker is gone, what tricks do you have left?" Floating looked at Li Yelai.

Li Yelai was silent.

Eventually, he let out a faint sigh, "Sigh... ’You Must Meet Strong Enemies’... this is going to be the death of me one of these days!"

Then, Li Yelai looked into the distance, "But I might not necessarily die at your hands."

"Oh? So you’re saying I will die at your hands?" Floating asked.

"No..." A cold voice came from deep within the ruins, "You all... will die at our hands!"

Champion Team One had arrived on the scene!

(There’s a plot hiccup, give me a moment to extrapolate.)
