Chapter 2245: Since You’ve Come, There’s No Need to Leave

Yun Yuqing’s face heated up. She naturally knew what the other side was talking about. Her relationship with Zu An was something only she and her husband knew about, and yet she had just thrown herself into Zu An’s arms under countless gazes, which naturally confused the onlookers.

She sighed deeply and quickly said, “I'll slowly explain things to everyone later. Cto this side first and help big brother Zu fight.”

When they heard what she said, King Yi and the others looked at each other in dismay. Their brains almost short-circuited.

What the hell is going on? Why is Madam Wu siding with an outsider?

Her husband was lying at Zu An’s feet like a dead dog, and yet she wasn’t thinking of getting revenge and was even helping the culprit? And the way she was calling him 'big brother Zu'? It sounded incredibly intimate!

Even many of the lower-rank soldiers looked at Zu An in confusion.

Just what kind of crazy power did this man have?

Madam Wu had shown herself quite frequently as of late. Stories of her beauty had spread far and wide through the entire capital. Many people had even started wondering if she would becthe future empress. After all, with King Wu’s prestige and the fact that he also had the blood of the late emperor, he was a better candidate in every aspect compared to the stupid Zhao Ruizhi.

Elder Rong shook his head and said, “Young miss, not only have you betrayed King Wu, you have also betrayed our entire clan.”

Yun Yuqing’s expression changed. “What do you mean?”

Zu An was also a bit confused. These were clearly the individuals the Demon race had sent to assist Yun Yuqing. Why were they now betraying her one after another?

Could it be because the Demon race has invested too much into King Wu, so they're upset that Yun Yuqing suddenly ruined those plans?

But that doesn’t make sense. King Wu has already beca cripple and has nearly no value left. In contrast, they could just rely on Yun Yuqing to beccloser to me. Why are they insisting on continuing down their own path?

Besides that, I'm the Fiend races' regent, and the Demon race is part of the Fiend empire. They should be standing at my side.

Unless...

Elder Rong shook his head slightly. He clearly didn’t wish to say any more. Instead, he gave the order, “Activate the formation!”

When they heard his words, even the Four Great Attendants moved instinctively.

King Wu’s eyes started brimming with tears of excitement when he saw this. No one else knew about his wife’s relationship with Zu An, but in the past, he had personally sent her to his room, so how could he not know?

More importantly, he had discovered that during the assassination attempt in the capital that one time, Yun Yuqing seemed to have developed real feelings. Zu An had thus becan inner demon for King Wu, who had always wondered how to kill him since then.

Later, King Wu had begun frantically recruiting powerful cultivators, and eventually found something called a Source Locking Formation. When master and grandmaster-rank individuals used it, it could isolate all of the natural ki of the world. It was the best formation if one wanted to win with numbers against a powerful foe.

At first, the formation was supposed to have been used by Elder Lin, but he'd been so interested in showing off that he was instantly killed by Zu An, leaving him no chance to activate it at all.

King Wu hadn’t expected Elder Rong to be able to use it too! Additionally, the elder had already been secretly setting up the formation for a while, and now it was fully in place.

This bastard Zu is dead for sure!

Yun Yuqing also sensed that the surrounding natural ki was disappearing. She was shocked and furious, exclaiming, “What are you all doing? Stop at once!”

Elder Rong looked at her coldly. “Women are emotional and impulsive, as expected. You almost made the entire clan perish because of your stubbornness. But it doesn’t matter. Now that the Source Locking Formation has already been completed, there is still tto fix all of your mistakes.”

King Wu’s four great attendants were shocked when they saw this.

Thank goodness we stood on the right side in tjust now.

With this Source Locking Formation and the powerful army, they believed that no matter how high his cultivation was, Zu An only had death awaiting him. Their only regret was that King Wu was already crippled. They would have to find someone more suitable to follow after this.

“What is the meaning of this? Didn’t you all chere to assist me?” Yun Yuqing was extremely confused. These were all people she had brought from the Demon race, but they were acting like complete strangers right now.

Zu An placed his hand on her shoulder. “I fear that schanges might have already happened to the Demon race. These people have already been influenced by the alien monsters.”

Princess Suolun had mentioned that the Demon race’s reinforcements never appeared when they were supposed to when he was in the sealed land. She had returned to receive the Demon race's reinforcements at the time. The current situation was likely extremely dangerous for her.

“The alien monsters?!” Yun Yuqing’s heart sank.

If my clan really has colluded with the monsters, doesn’t that mean...

King Yi and their army grew a bit restless when they heard the topic of monsters being mentioned. They had never expected there to be monsters among these people! After all, for most ordinary people, the monsters were a more frightening and more important enemy.

King Yi said with a cold snort, “Do not listen to that Zu guy’s lies. He is already at the end of his rope and is just saying this to splash dirty water on them. Those people are King Wu Manor’s trusted aides, so how could they possibly be monsters?”

But he felt an icy sensation inside. The pressure Zu An gave off was just too strong. As long as he was eliminated, what did it matter if they had to work together with the monsters temporarily?

Zhao Zhang and Zhao Quan had similar thoughts. Because of their father’s murder, they knew that they already couldn't coexist with Zu An in this world.

Zu An didn’t kill us before because he was stupid. There’s no way we would believe that excuse he gave, saying we had to face the alien monsters together for the sake of the greater good.

But that might’ve also been because he didn’t have his hands free at all. After he dealt with the aliens, he'd probably have just carried out a purge of our clans.

That was why they decided to strike first. It was also why they hadn’t hesitated to join in on the attack on the Liu clan and the empress. Now, there was definitely no way they would turn back.

Jiang Boyang was furious. “Who would have thought that for the sake of your selfish desires, you wouldn’t even hesitate to collude with the alien monsters?! The fact that you hold power in the court is our human race’s greatest misfortune!”

“Hah, how dare those who plot treason criticize the government?!” King Yi retorted. He knew that he couldn't let these people continue to speak, as it could end up shaking the will of the army. As such, he immediately gave the orders for his subordinates to attack.

Even though there were still ssoldiers who hesitated, his personal subordinates fired the city siege crossbows and rune cannons. At the stime, the army’s cultivators used all kinds of powerful long-range attacks. Together with the screaming city siege bolts and energy blasts, skills of many different colors rained down on the Jiang manor.

Meanwhile, Zu An and the people of the Jiang clan were trapped in the Source Locking Formation.

Jiang Luofu and Yun Yuqing wanted to help Zu An with their cultivation, but they discovered that they couldn't communicate with the ki of the world at all. They couldn't even use their own internal energies. They could even end up being instantly blown to pieces by the attacks of this massive army. They looked at Zu An worriedly. One thought to herself that it was because Ah Zu was helping them that they had ended up in such a dangerous situation, while the other blamed herself for bringing Elder Rong and the others along.

But Zu An remained completely calm and stood in place like a towering mountain. He hadn’t even moved once from the start. Soon, the two women moved over to his side. Even if they were going to die, they wanted to die together, as a trip across the yellow springs wouldn’t be too lonely then.

King Yi and the others all had smiles on their faces.

It seems these guys have already given up on any thought of resistance.

But it’s to be expected. What could they possibly do in this kind of situation?

However, their smiles quickly froze, and their eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

The skills that covered the skies, the screaming city siege bolts, and the terrifying energy blasts completely stopped in midair when they were a few feet away from Zu An. It was as if there was an invisible, mighty force that stopped all of these attacks.

“How is that possible?!” Elder Rong and the others were even more shocked and heartbroken. After all, being trapped in the Source Locking Formation meant that Zu An wasn't supposed to be able to use any natural ki powers.

Zu An slowly walked forward. He didn’t make any other movements, but wherever he passed, the various colors were all wiped out.

King Wu Manor’s Four Great Attendants were the first to try to flee, but they discovered that they couldn't move. As he passed them by, no one even saw what he did, but they felt that their life force had already left their bodies.

A wormhole appeared behind Elder Rong’s body, which was his life-saving skill. He was trying to escape. However, the purple portal collapsed as soon as it appeared.

“Since you’ve already call the way here, there’s no need for you to leave.”

When he heard that booming voice that seemed like a deity speaking from the heavens, a resolute look appeared on Elder Rong’s face. He bit down on a poison capsule in his teeth to end his own life.

Even if I die, It's better than ending up in his hands and leaking out information.

Hm? Why is there a transparent me?

Is this the 'lingering soul after death' phenomenon...?

Why is that Zu An looking atwith a smile?

He can see me?

But how?!
