Chapter 2146: Chapter 2143: Coming to Kill
"Big Brother Ling, why do you seem so restless? Are you worried about something?" Xiao Xi noticed Ling Feng’s uneasy demeanor and asked.
Ling Feng shook his head: "I just listened to all the narratives and realized that the Void Demon Emperor is a very powerful and meticulous individual! He not only managed to create space storms to create opportunities to be with the Empress, gaining her trust, but he also secretly cultivated his forces to seize the Empress’s throne!"
"Such a person truly has the bearing of a hero!" Ling Feng said in a deep voice. "I find it hard to imagine how someone like that couldn’t annihilate Elder Yu and the others in tens of thousands of years."
Xiao Xi frowned: "Big Brother Ling, what do you mean by that? Are you saying..."
"I suspect that the Void Demon Emperor has already been keeping track of these people, just choosing not to act!" Ling Feng said solemnly. "Let’s make a conjecture – his reason for controlling the Void Sanctuary is for the Void Lock, but only the Empress Bloodline can open the Void Lock, which means without it, he’s achieving nothing!"
"But the Empress was rescued by the Five Elders and sent to the Phantom Demon Continent! And the Phantom Demon Continent is precisely where the Void Demon Emperor’s reach can’t extend!" Ling Feng said gravely. "But surely, he knows that the Empress’s Descendants won’t just sit back and wait for death, constantly hoping to let the Descendant of the Empress return to the Holy Land, so..."
As he spoke, Ling Feng’s expression changed, muttering to himself, "If I’m not mistaken, this is the Void Demon Emperor’s way of luring the snake out of its hole. Once he knew about your appearance, this place is no longer safe!"
Xiao Xi looked shocked: "No way, Elder Ying said this place was very safe!"
Ling Feng said in a deep voice, "No, this place isn’t safe. The Void Demon Emperor merely created a very safe illusion for them, just waiting to catch them all in one sweep! He’s a formidable man, we can’t underestimate him! I must go find Elder Ying and the others now..."
Ling Feng hadn’t finished speaking when a loud explosion resounded above the entire island.
The people inside the base were taken aback, and the Five Elders also appeared.
"What happened? Why are there explosions outside? Has the enemy broken in?"
"How is that possible? We are absolutely safe here; the enemy doesn’t know at all!"
...
"Hahaha, remnants of the old era, are you not coming out to die yet?" At this moment, an arrogant voice echoed from the sky, reverberating over the entire floating island.
As the clouds dispersed, the Five Elders realized that their supposedly absolutely safe base was surrounded by countless people, like an iron barrel encasing the island, leaving no possibility of escape.
"How could this be!" Elder Xiong’s eyes flashed with shock and disbelief. How could the Void Demon Emperor’s people have known about this place?
"It’s him; it must be this Outsider who brought us misfortune. I said Outsiders shouldn’t enter the Holy Land, otherwise how is it possible that once he came, we were discovered?" Elder Xiong seemed to have realized something, pointing angrily at Ling Feng not far away.
The other four elders also cast unfriendly gazes at Ling Feng. With Ling Feng’s appearance, their "absolute secret" base was discovered, and no one would believe it wasn’t because of Ling Feng!
Ling Feng’s lips twitched, muttering to himself, "A bunch of fools. How did they manage to contend with the Void Demon Emperor all these tens of thousands of years? The Void Demon Emperor had been so lenient, yet they had no awareness?"
Afraid not of a god-like opponent, but of pig-like teammates, Ling Feng suddenly felt a bit of a headache; these teammates didn’t seem easy to handle.
"Today is your last day. Surrender your lives, remnants of the Empress!" This time, the voice came again, and with the command, countless warriors surged like a tide towards the Five Elders.
Ling Feng grabbed Xiao Xi’s hand, speaking solemnly: "Xiao Xi, hold on to me, I’ll take you away!"
Xiao Xi looked at the overwhelming number of enemies, gritted her teeth, and desperately shook off Ling Feng’s hand, then pushed him away fiercely: "Was it you, was it you who betrayed us to the Void Demon Emperor? If not, how could they have possibly found this place?"
Ling Feng was stunned: "Xiao Xi, what are you saying! Didn’t I just analyze this for you? This matter is with..."
Xiao Xi looked at Ling Feng angrily: "Do you think I don’t know you’re lying to me? I trusted you so much, yet you deceived me, you... go away; I don’t want to see you anymore!"
With that, Xiao Xi turned and ran towards Elder Xiong, shouting loudly as she ran: "I’m a Descendant of the Empress, stop right there!"
Ling Feng stood dazedly, watching Xiao Xi run. He suddenly understood Xiao Xi’s intention! She didn’t misbelieve him; she didn’t want to be a burden to Ling Feng.
And the people of the Void Demon Emperor also saw Xiao Xi’s figure, enthusiastically charging forward: "By order of the Demon Emperor, capture the Descendant of the Empress, and you’ll be handsomely rewarded!"
At this moment, the people of the Five Elders were already collapsing like mountains, their men being slaughtered on a massive scale. The power gap was immense; they thought they could contend with the Void Demon Emperor, but the reality was brutally harsh!
"Stop, otherwise, I’ll die in front of you immediately!" Xiao Xi took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "I suppose the Void Demon Emperor wants me alive and not my corpse, right?"
"What a decisive woman, truly worthy of being a Descendant of the Empress! All of you, stop!" That voice came again, calmly: "I won’t kill these remnants, but you must cooperate with us and come along, otherwise..."
"I’ll cooperate with you!" Xiao Xi said firmly, instinctively glancing at Ling Feng, her eyes full of reluctance and plea.
Ling Feng, initially about to rush forward, stopped in his tracks. He knew that Xiao Xi didn’t want him to rescue her now. Even if Ling Feng were stronger, he couldn’t possibly take on so many opponents.
"Straightforward!" The voice laughed: "Who would have thought that after tens of thousands of years, the Descendant of the Empress is still so courageous. In that case, we will spare these old folks’ lives. Take the Descendant of the Empress, let’s go!"
A few experts stepped up to seize Xiao Xi, then swiftly left, and the other Demon Emperor’s forces gradually retreated, leaving only a ground full of corpses.
"How could this happen, how could this happen!" Elder Yu, ignoring his injuries, stared blankly at the scene before him, his face full of despair.
After tens of thousands of years, they finally waited for the Descendant of the Empress, but unexpectedly, in less than two days, she was captured by the Demon Emperor’s people. This was an unbearable blow for them.
