Chapter 187: Hao Yue"s Arrival
Ning Qi and Duan Jundi arrived in front of the crystal knight immediately and pounced at Ye Xiao. Their eyes revealed a trace of greed they brandished their weapons and attacked Ye Xiao.
At this moment, Ye Xiao was in the middle of receiving the inheritance of the True Knight Jia Wufeng, and because of this, he was unable to counterattack or block Ning Qi and Duan Jundi.
He helplessly kept looking at Ning Qi and Duan Jundi pouncing at him.
However, just as their attack was about to touch Ye Xiao, a tremendous backlash struck their bodies. Both Ning Qi and Duan Jundi let out a miserable cry and were sent flying backward.
After some time, both of them crawled up. Duan Jundi looked at Ning Qi and asked, "W-What just happened? At that time, I felt as if... as if..."
Duan Jundi was unable to explain what he felt at the moment when his attack was about to land on Ye Xiao.
"I know what happened previously with us!" Ning Qi thought for a while and then said.
"What happened?" Duan Jundi looked at Ning Qi with a questioning gaze.
"He is currently receiving some an inheritance and there might be some restriction placed here which stops anyone from attacking the inheritor in the middle of receiving the inheritance!"
"Previously, our action was precisely this which caused the restriction to activate and we were backlashed!"
Ning Qi explained everything that he understood after observing the situation.
"So that"s how it is!" Duan Jundi nodded his head but then as if he realized something, he looked at Ye Xiao and asked, "Didn"t this mean that this brat is safe and he will also be the one to receive the inheritance?"
"We can do nothing about it. Well, this underground cave is quite big and this is far from being the end of the cave. Let"s go deeper!" Ning Qi shook his head helplessly and said.
Duan Jundi was just about to speak something when he suddenly found that someone had come in. Moreover, this person"s aura was very strong. There was even an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"Hahaha! Sure enough, there is a secret in this place!"
Hao Yue laughed when he saw the strange phenomenon on the Crystal Knight"s body. Then, he swept his gaze across the crowd. When he saw Ye Xiao, he was obviously startled.
"It"s you!"
When he saw Ye Xiao, anger immediately erupted out from the depth of his heart.
At this moment he also saw Ye Xiao receiving the inheritance.
Hao Yue"s face revealed a sinister smile. Then, his laughter gradually grew louder, as if he had gone mad. "Hahaha! brat, I did not think that I would meet you again so soon. Today, I will return the humiliation ten times no, a hundred times, to you."
"Who doesn"t know how to talk big? I will continue to sit here. If you have the ability, come and catch me."
Ye Xiao said with a smile.
Obviously, he also understood why Ning Qi and Duan Jundi were unable to touch him, and instead, it was them who got injured.
He has already merged with memories of the Ancient Formation G.o.d and was able to see through the restrictions placed here easily.
At this time, he was obviously unafraid of Hao Yue attacking him because of this restriction.
Hao Yue frowned and looked around and said, "Two Martial King and both of them are injured, could it be that this brat did it?"
At this moment, he discovered that Ye Xiao"s cultivation base was already at the Peak Third Stage of the Martial King Realm. A trace of disbelief flashed across his eyes. The last time he saw Ye Xiao, he did not see what kind of cultivation Ye Xiao had.
Although Ye Xiao"s cultivation was at the Peak Third Stage of the Martial King Realm, he was not afraid of him. What caused him more curious was both Ning Qi and Duan Jundi"s cultivation was higher than Ye Xiao but even so, at this moment, they were injured so badly.
Hao Yue was naturally suspicious. Seeing that Ye Xiao was full of confidence, the crystal knight behind him, and Ning Qi and Duan Jundi who were injured did not act rashly.
After some time, he was unable to stop and rushed towards Ye Xiao.
A trace of regret appeared on Ye Xiao"s face. If it wasn"t for him currently being in the middle of receiving the inheritance, he could have killed Hao Yue here.
A faint red fog instantly gushed out from Hao Yue"s body and swept towards Ye Xiao.
This fog looked like it was actually condensed from spirit energy. It was incomparably sharp and could cut one"s throat in an instant!
What he wanted to see was fear on Ye Xiao"s face before killing him but at this moment, he did not see even a trace of fear on his face. Instead, he saw a mocking smile on his face.
He felt something was wrong but it was already too late.
The restriction was once again activated. A tremendous backlash struck his body just like what happened with Ning Qi and Duan Jundi but this time, it was even more ferocious than before.
"Arghhhh!"
Hao Yue let out a miserable cry and was sent flying backward while vomiting out a mouthful of blood.
.....
"Why don"t we take this opportunity and go deeper. If more people were to come down, obtaining the treasures from here will become even more difficult!"
Looking at the situation in front of him, Duan Jundi said to Ning Qi.
Ning Qi glanced at the Ye Xiao and when thought of his Sea Dragon Spear which might be a weapon that has surpa.s.sed the Mystical Rank weapons, greed flashed across his eyes.
After calming down and looking at Hao Yue, he nodded his head and said, "Let"s go!"
Both Ning Qi and Duan Jundi went deeper to look for some opportunities. Before leaving, Ning Qi once again glanced at Ye Xiao and reluctantly left.
At this time, another large group of people swarmed in!
"Quickly look! A giant crystal statue."
"Look, someone is receiving an inheritance!"
Although they had also seen Hao Yue, greed drove them crazy. Someone had already rushed towards Ye Xiao.
The corner of Hao Yue"s mouth curled into a cold smile as he thought, "Even I was unable to touch him, let alone you guys. Let"s see what will happen to you guys!"
Sure enough, as soon as their hands were about to touch Ye Xiao, they let out a miserable howl. It was as if they had been hit by a cannonball and were sent flying backward.
Even so, the latecomers were still enjoying themselves. They only calmed down after more than a dozen people had fallen.
The longer they fought, the more shocked Hao Yue became. This restriction seems to be even more formidable than he had thought it to be.
Not long after, no one dared to get close to the Ye Xiao.
At this moment, the others were not as crazy as before. They calmed down and stood together with the people they knew. They looked at the others and mainly vigilantly.
"Who is that person? He is actually receiving the inheritance and no one is able to touch him because of the restriction placed here." Someone said.
At this time, another group of people appeared at the entrance of the underground palace.
This group of people was being led by a young lady. This lady was Yun Xianer. Not long after, they arrived at the place where Ye Xiao was receiving inheritance after all only the path that leads here was shining with a bright light.
At this moment, as if Ye Xiao felt something, he immediately closed his eyes, ignoring everyone outside.
"It"s that guy!"
Yun Xianer"s eyes suddenly focused as she saw Ye Xiao. She also saw Hao Yue who was already injured.
Seeing Hao Yue"s condition, she was shocked. Then she heard from her subordinates who previously entered the underground cave about what had happened before.
When she heard this, she was surprised and once again looked at Ye Xiao who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
"Let"s go!"
She did not plan to stay here and observe Ye Xiao receiving the inheritance so she went deeper with her subordinates to search for other treasures.
Not long after she left, Hao Yue also gritted his teeth and left, and following him, others also left.
Now Ye Xiao was alone, receiving the inheritance of the True Knight Jia Wufeng"s inheritance.
Previously, in the piece of paper, he had read how to receive the inheritance of the True Knight Jia Wufeng and who Jia Wufeng was.
Jia Wufeng was an expert who has once already taken his step to becoming an immortal but luck was not in his favour to become a true immortal.
A disastrous war broke out between humans and demons that caused him to be badly injured which resulted in his death.
