Soul Clone Technique was a complex spell that only the most brilliant Spell Cultivators could cast. Even Liu Yuemei had only learned the basics, so she couldn’t fully activate it. Much to her surprise, she saw a Junior in the Third-Order Real Lake Realm using it. What was more, he was a Combat Cultivator.

Upon closer look, Liu Yuemei discovered that Lu Ye’s Soul Clone was different from a traditional one. That was because even a Divine Ocean Realm Master like her couldn’t tell which one was the real Lu Ye. Both figures carried identical auras of Lu Ye.

The two figures moved in two different directions. Liu Yuemei didn’t have time to consider anything as she instinctively cast a spell at one of the figures.

The figure instantly fell apart, so it was apparently a Soul Clone.

After the woman was held up for a moment, Lu Ye managed to slightly widen the gap between them and cast another Soul Clone.

What Lu Ye had to do was simple, which was to stall for time and run for his life.

He didn’t know whether Qian Wudang was coming. Even if he was, Lu Ye didn’t know his exact location. Faced with a Divine Ocean Realm Master, he could only run away.

He was now in the territory of another Pass where there must be some Divine Ocean Realm Masters. As long as he could go near the Pass, Liu Yuemei would be wary.

Unfortunately, the Pass was far away, so it was hard for him to achieve his goal.

Thankfully, Spectral Image was of great help in such a situation. It was thanks to the Glyph that Lu Ye managed to fool Liu Yuemei several times and got some breathing space.

Suddenly, a sense of horror rose within him. He turned his head and saw a massive illusory tree behind Liu Yuemei. The tree was formed using Spiritual Power. Its crown was huge, and its leaves were dense.

Although the tree looked lush, it gave off a horrifying feeling.

As Liu Yuemei activated her power, the tree started swaying. The leaves fell from the tree and flew towards Lu Ye in a swirl. There were uncountable leaves as they formed an emerald current and streamed towards Lu Ye.

It wasn’t until this moment that Lu Ye discovered Liu Yuemei was a Wood-Attribute Spell Cultivator.

There was no doubt it wasn’t an ordinary spell. Liu Yuemei must’ve run out of patience. Otherwise, considering that she was a Divine Ocean Realm Master, she wouldn’t have used such a spell to deal with a Third-Order Real Lake Realm Master.

Following several failed attempts to destroy Lu Ye, she was furious. Given Lu Ye’s current power, there was no way he could ward off the spell.

He still couldn’t do that even if he activated the Dragon Throne. Considering the Dragon Throne’s defence and quality, it might be able to fend off the spell’s power, but it couldn’t resolve the massive impact. Once Lu Ye was swept into it, he would be doomed.

Engulfed in the murderous intent, he felt suffocated. He had never felt more despondent.

He secretly let out a sigh. The moment the emerald current engulfed him, he activated the Golden Body Token.

There were several occasions in the past when he was ready to activate the item, but fortunately, he got out of danger in the end, which helped him save a lot of battle points. However, he would be killed if he refused to use the item this time.

The golden light was covered in the emerald light. Lu Ye was swept into the innumerable leaves as they cut through the Void.

Liu Yuemei stopped in front of the emerald current and looked on icily.

When the spell’s power dissipated a moment later, the emerald light quickly turned dim. Behind the face mask, Liu Yuemei appeared shocked and doubtful.

That was because she could see the powerful golden light amid the expansive green light. As the emerald light dimmed, the golden light brightened.

When the spell’s power fully dissipated, Lu Ye, who was engulfed in a layer of golden light, and Liu Yuemei, who was wearing a face mask, glanced at each other as there was only a distance of 90 metres between them.

“Golden Body Token!” Liu Yuemei said slowly through clenched teeth. Her eyes were bloodshot.

She initially thought that since she had made a move, it would be easy for her to kill a Third-Order Real Lake Realm Master like Lu Ye. Much to her surprise, Lu Ye had a way to protect himself.

As a Divine Ocean Realm Master, she was naturally aware of what the Golden Body Token was. It could be considered the protection granted by the Heavens. Once it was activated, no one in Jiu Zhou could shatter it before it lost effect.

It was for this reason that the Golden Body Tokens were rare. Even if all the Golden Body Tokens held by the major Sects in Jiu Zhou combined, there were fewer than ten of the items. They would only use the treasure if it was a life-and-death situation.

Therefore, Liu Yuemei didn’t expect a Third-Order Real Lake Realm Master like Lu Ye to have a Golden Body Token.

Now that the Golden Body Token was activated, there was no way she could end Lu Ye’s life. She could only wait for the treasure to lose effect. She almost lost her mind.

“Why do you have such a treasure!?” Liu Yuemei screamed hysterically. Infuriated, she struck Lu Ye with her palm. An air blast sent Lu Ye flying away.

However, with the Golden Body Token’s protection, Lu Ye wouldn’t be harmed one bit. It was just that he couldn’t retain his balance.

After he landed on the ground, Liu Yuemei charged forward and pushed out her palm again. Naturally, she understood that she was unable to hurt Lu Ye for now. It was just that she had nowhere else to vent her frustrations and fury.

When Lu Ye landed on the ground for the second time, he got to his feet and stared icily at Liu Yuemei before saying, “B*tch!”

He didn’t like to curse, nor did he like to talk nonsense during a fight. If someone had offended him, he would get his revenge right there and then provided that he had the power to do so. If he couldn’t do that, he would never forget what had happened. There would come a moment when he could retaliate against that person.

Therefore, he wasn’t trying to vent his fury by cursing at Liu Yuemei. He was just trying to ensure the safety of Xiao Xinghe and Lin Yinxiu. While he had the Golden Body Token’s protection, the two of them didn’t.

If Liu Yuemei ditched Lu Ye now, she would run after Xiao Xinghe and Lin Yinxiu, and he would be powerless to stop her.

As such, he had to come up with a way to make Liu Yuemei stay. Since he couldn’t defeat her, he could only curse at her.

Presently, the woman was mad and irritable. When she heard Lu Ye cursing at her, she was rooted to the spot.

She came from a noble background, so no one had ever treated her harshly since birth. She only came to her senses a moment later. “What did you just say?”

Lu Ye stared at her and repeated his word. “B*tch!”

With a boom, Liu Yuemei’s powerful aura spread like a volcanic eruption. She said through clenched teeth, “You’re asking for death!”

She knew that since Lu Ye had the Golden Body Token’s protection, it was pointless for her to make a move. Therefore, even though she scolded Lu Ye, she didn’t have the intention of attacking him.

“Whether I’ll stay alive is none of your business. I heard that a guy named Tan Shu was killed a while back. Wasn’t that your Son?”

“I’ll kill you!” Liu Yuemei couldn’t bear to hear anyone mention the death of Tan Shu, but Lu Ye rubbed some salt into her wound, which was why she was incensed.

The moment she finished speaking, she activated her power as a Divine Ocean Realm Master. An illusory tree appeared behind her once again. The leaves swirled downwards and engulfed Lu Ye.

It was pointless, though. When the emerald current disappeared, the golden light was still as bright as ever.

The Golden Body Token’s protection could last a long time. Lu Ye remembered that when he used the Golden Body Token for the first time in the Carnage Colosseum, it stayed with him for quite a while.

“Vicious people like you and your Son should’ve gone to Hell long ago. Tan Shu had it coming. You’ll end up in a horrible state as well!”

Lu Ye tried to infuriate her, but it wasn’t effective. Liu Yuemei had probably calmed down following a prolonged period of fury. Or, perhaps she had accepted the fact. Instead of attacking Lu Ye, she extended her hand and engulfed Lu Ye with her Spiritual Power before shooting into the sky.

[Damn it!] Lu Ye thought.

When the Golden Body Token was activated, he indeed wouldn’t be hurt. However, if a Divine Ocean Realm Master like Liu Yuemei wanted to take him with her, he was powerless to stop her.

As such, even though the Golden Body Token was powerful, it might not help the user get out of danger.

It was apparent that Liu Yuemei intended to take him somewhere secretive and wait for several hours. She would kill him when the Golden Body Token lost effect.

Naturally, Lu Ye wouldn’t let that happen, so he wielded his saber to drive her off. It was useless, though. He had only managed to slow down Liu Yuemei slightly.

Just then, Liu Yuemei suddenly turned her head. Lu Ye could see that she was surprised.

Following her gaze, he looked into the distance and saw two rays of light rapidly approaching them.

[They’ve come to the rescue!] Lu Ye was elated. However, he was puzzled as to why there were two people. Who else was coming other than Qian Wudang?

Soon, he found out who the person was. That was because he could hear an authoritative growl coming from afar. “Release him now! Otherwise, I’ll tear you to pieces!”

[Sect Master! It seems that Qian Wudang had looked for the Sect Master before his departure.] Lu Ye was relieved as he quickly shouted, “Save me, Sect Master!”

Then, he turned to hiss at Liu Yuemei, “You’re doomed. My Sect Master is here!”

Looking at his smug expression, Liu Yuemei was vexed, but she knew she couldn’t turn things around. She could only grit her teeth and mutter, “Damn it!”

The next instant, she cast Lu Ye away with her palm.

Qian Wudang and Tang Yi Feng were running after her now. If she refused to release Lu Ye, she would be doomed. Therefore, despite her reluctance, she had no choice but to abandon Lu Ye and run for her life.

Lu Ye stabilised himself in mid-air. Since he was engulfed in a golden light, he was as radiant as the Sun.

Tang Yi Feng and Qian Wudang soon reached him. When they saw that he was fine despite looking battered, they were relieved.

Qian Wudang asked hurriedly, “Where’s Yinxiu?”

Lu Ye replied, “I parted ways with them. They’re in that direction, so they’re supposed to be safe.”

Qian Wudang immediately charged forward in the direction Lu Ye had pointed. It was apparent that he was going to look for Lin Yinxiu.

After he was gone, Tang Yi Feng told Lu Ye, “You’ll stay here. I’ll go and kill that crook from Thousand Demon Ridge. How dare she try to kill you in the territory of the Grand Sky Coalition? That’s horrible!”

The next second, he turned into a ray of light and raced after Liu Yuemei.

Since Lu Ye had the Golden Body Token’s protection, Tang Yi Feng didn’t have to worry about his safety. There was no way he wouldn’t get revenge for his Sect’s disciple, who had suffered so much.

That crook from Thousand Demon Ridge had no regard for Tang Yi Feng by brazenly doing such a despicable thing.

Moreover, Tang Yi Feng had just taken up his role in Grand Sky City, so he needed a chance to make a contribution. Naturally, he wouldn’t miss such a good chance.
