Once the Scarlet Gold Shield dissipated,
Recalling the battle just now, Ye Ziyun realized that
The reason Nie Li hadn't used the Legendary Forbidden Spell Scroll from the very start was that he was waiting for the two Legendary powerhouses of the Wu Ghost Family to make their move. The moment those two unleashed the Luo Tian Sword Slash, Nie Li had already figured out how to respond, and he had anticipated that they would inevitably underestimate the power of his Light-Dark Energy Burst — allowing him to annihilate them in one fell swoop.
In terms of raw strength, Nie Li might not have matched a Legendary powerhouse, but his ability to assess and control power had already reached an extremely precise level. He had also held numerous trump cards in reserve. Even if the Light-Dark Energy Burst hadn't done the job, he could have finished them off with Dragon Blast Grenades and other methods.
Wu Yu and Ye Han stared blankly, still unable to process what had just happened. Over twenty experts who had charged at Nie Li had all been taken down, and those still alive lay groaning on the ground.
Nie Li cast a cold glance at Wu Yu and Ye Han, then began walking toward them.
Seeing Nie Li approach, Wu Yu and Ye Han immediately tensed up. Wu Yu gripped his greatsword, ready to fight at any moment, yet his palms were slick with cold sweat and his hands trembled slightly. He was a peak Black Gold powerhouse, while his opponent was only Black Gold rank!
So why did Nie Li exert such terrifying pressure on him?
Ye Han sidestepped backward, staring at Nie Li with a hint of terror in his eyes. He had defied all reason — the Wu Ghost Family's power should have been more than enough to crush the
What kind of person was Nie Li? How could someone so young already possess such fearsome strength?
Glancing at Ye Ziyun, who was glaring at him with undisguised hatred, Ye Han knew one thing for certain: if he fell into the hands of Nie Li and Ye Ziyun, they would never let him go.
"Ye Ziyun, you should know — everything I've done, I did it for you!" Ye Han thought bitterly. He refused to die here just like that. Suddenly, his gaze fell upon an endless abyss not far from him. Ye Han broke into a frantic sprint toward the chasm.
Nie Li furrowed his brows slightly at the sight and immediately gave chase.
Although jumping into the bottomless abyss was virtually a death sentence, Nie Li wasn't about to let Ye Han off that easily. He needed to capture him alive so that
When Wu Yu saw Nie Li chase after Ye Han, he glanced at Ye Ziyun, then immediately bolted in a different direction.
Ye Ziyun gritted her teeth and looked in the direction Ye Han was fleeing. Then she summoned the power of Wind and Snow, sweeping it toward Wu Yu.
"You want to kill me with your own hands? I'll never give you that chance! Even in death, I won't die by yours! I, Ye Han, will become a vengeful spirit if I must — and I will come for everything you took from me!" Ye Han screamed like a man possessed. Three Poison Needle Bees suddenly appeared in his hand, and as if obeying his command, they flew straight toward Nie Li.
"Poison Needle Bees?" Nie Li's expression shifted. The Poison Needle Bee was a terrifyingly dangerous demon beast. Its venom was extraordinarily potent — even a Black Gold powerhouse could easily die from a single sting. Moreover, the creatures were incredibly durable and difficult to kill.
He had no idea where Ye Han had obtained them.
Nie Li's palm surged with force as beams of Law Power hammered into the three Poison Needle Bees. Bang, bang, bang — all three exploded and perished instantly. Nie Li knew exactly where their weak points were. He condensed three streams of Law Power into needle-thin lances, drove them into the bees' bodies, and detonated them from the inside, destroying all three in one strike.
Even at that speed, Ye Han had already put considerable distance between them.
The Poison Needle Bees had been useless too! Ye Han threw himself forward with desperate strength, leaping toward the abyss.
With Ye Han about to plunge into the chasm and no way to stop him, Nie Li quickly fused with the Tiger Fang Panda and spat out a beam of Light-Dark Energy Burst.
The Light-Dark Energy Burst streaked through the air toward Ye Han and detonated with a thunderous boom. The resulting shockwave crashed into Ye Hit hard by the blast, Ye Han vomited a torrent of blood and was hurled into the abyss.
Nie Li landed gracefully at the edge of the chasm. He hadn't expected Ye Han would rather leap into an abyss than be captured by him — but after taking a direct hit from the Light-Dark Energy Burst, Ye Han would be dead if not gravely wounded. Falling into a bottomless pit on top of that meant certain death.
Who knew what kind of demon beasts lurked within those depths? Ye Han's body would likely never be found!
After a moment of silence, Nie Li looked into the distance. Ye Ziyun was pursuing Wu Yu, but Wu Yu was a five-star Black Gold powerhouse after all, and she couldn't bring him down on her own.
Nie Li immediately shot toward Wu Yu and Ye Ziyun's direction.
He couldn't let Wu Yu escape. If he did, it would likely bring serious trouble to the City of Radiance.
