The atmosphere on the scene was eerily strange.
The Black and White Guardians exchanged glances, not expecting Ye Ling to appear as Huang had said!
Upon seeing Ye Ling, Yue Qingning’s eyes showed not surprise, but anxiety. "Fool, why are you showing yourself at a time like this? Hurry and escape!"
Although Yue Qingning believed Ye Ling was the hope of the Inner Universe, in her eyes, he was merely a spark of hope. With Ye Ling's current strength, he could not possibly resist the million-strong invading army!
Ye You, upon seeing Ye Ling appear, was equally anxious. She sent a palm strike to push Huang, who was in front of her, away, and said to Ye Ling, "Brother, you don't need to worry about me. This is a trap specifically set for you. Hurry and escape!"
However, Ye Ling did not heed the advice of Yue Qingning and Ye You. He teleported in front of Ye You, picked her up, then teleported near Yue Qingning, setting Ye You down and shielding both women behind him.
The Black and White Guardians and the two powerhouses from the Nether Palace saw Ye Ling voluntarily enter the encirclement. Without hesitation, they immediately set up a barrier around them, completely cutting off Ye Ling’s escape route.
Although the strong individuals did not believe Ye Ling was their opponent, the Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Sovereigns who had previously invaded the Inner Universe, with the exception of Yue Qingning and Tai Yuan, had all died. Facing Ye Ling, who had killed Chaos Sovereigns and Great Dao Immortal Lords, the Black and White Guardians and the Nether Palace powerhouses, despite holding an absolute advantage, dared not be careless.
Huang reattached his severed hand and reminded the Black and White Guardians, "Two, Ye Ling’s luck is terrifying. Give him even a little opportunity, and he will absolutely not die. Therefore, I implore you both to go all out and not give Ye Ling any chance!"
After speaking, Huang also called out to the two experts from the Nether Palace, "Seniors, you are the ones controlling the Shadow Hall from behind the scenes. You should also know that Ye Ling is insidious and cunning. Therefore, I hope that before we completely deal with Ye Ling, you can put aside your grievances with my Void Palace and eliminate Ye Ling together!"
What Huang said was from the bottom of his heart. Although he was already planning to get rid of the Nether Palace, he wished even more to get rid of Ye Ling! As long as Ye Ling was not dead, he would not be able to rest easy. If he had to choose between the growth of the Nether Palace and Ye Ling's death, he would choose Ye Ling a million times over! Having grown up with Ye Ling from the Inner Universe, Huang knew Ye Ling's terrifying nature better than anyone.
Yue Qingning’s expression turned solemn upon hearing Huang’s words. She said to Ye Ling, "Ye Ling, it seems Huang doesn't intend to leave us a way out. If I use my sister’s power, I can barely contend with the two Chaos Sovereigns from the Nether Palace. How strong are you now? Can you handle the Black and White Guardians?"
Ye You also said, "Brother, I now have Tai Yuan's power, and with the help of runes, I can barely hold off one Great Dao Immortal Lord. We still have a chance."
Hearing Yue Qingning and Ye You, Ye Ling smiled and shook his head. "There's no need for so much trouble."
Yue Qingning and Ye You were stunned. "What do you mean?"
Ye Ling smiled and said, "What I mean is, since I'm back, you don't need to trouble yourselves. These invaders are enough for me to handle alone."
"Handle alone?"
Yue Qingning thought she misheard, looking at Ye Ling with disbelief. "Are you sure?"
"Of course."
Ye Ling ascended into the sky, extending his divine soul to cover the entire Inner Universe, locking onto every extraterrestrial invader.
The World-Destroying Spirit Fire sighed, "After experiencing the outer space, I suddenly feel that this Inner Universe is so small. A single thought can cover the entire range."
Ye Ling said indifferently, "Although these current extraterrestrial invaders are not worth mentioning, since they chose to invade the Inner Universe, I must fulfill my promise."
The World-Destroying Spirit Fire was taken aback. "Promise?"
Ye Ling looked up at the shattered cosmic barrier, gazing directly at the Void Palace's stronghold, and loudly addressed Xu Wu Jue within. "Xu Wu Jue, do you remember what I said when I borrowed your Void Palace to proclaim to the outer realms?"
"I said, anyone who dares to invade the Inner Universe will surely die!"
Inside the palace, Xu Wu Jue, upon hearing Ye Ling's words, trembled violently. He suddenly remembered that incident. Ye Ling had forcibly borrowed his power and broadcasted to the entire outer realm. It was precisely because of that incident that the Void Palace became the focus of the entire outer realm, and even the Remnant Evil Clan had come to cause trouble for the Void Palace.
Thinking of those events, Xu Wu Jue’s teeth itched with anger. "This scoundrel, he dares to bring this up again! He truly doesn't have this lord in his eyes!"
He slammed his chair and shouted through the void, "Black and White Guardians, capture that presumptuous brat for me!"
Xu Wu Jue's voice descended from the heavens, echoing across the three realms of Earth, causing the entire planet to tremble!
The Black and White Guardians, hearing Xu Wu Jue's command, their eyes immediately filled with killing intent. Their auras locked onto Ye Ling, and they said coldly, "Kid, the Palace Lord wants your dog life. You'd best surrender it obediently!"
As their voices fell, the Black and White Guardians attacked Ye Ling from left and right, unleashing their full power! For them, even a rabbit had to be hunted with all their might. Even though they didn't believe Ye Ling's cultivation was at the same level as theirs, it didn't stop them from fighting with all their strength! As long as the target could be killed, the process didn't matter!
However, although the Black and White Guardians had used their full strength, Ye Ling didn't even spare them a proper glance!
Seeing Ye Ling's demeanor, Huang, who was not far away, suddenly felt a jolt. "Something's wrong... Ye Ling shouldn't be such an arrogant and conceited person... Why is he still acting like this when facing the Black and White Guardians?"
Just as Huang began to suspect, Ye Ling answered the question in Huang's heart. Ye Ling slightly raised his hand, releasing his Devouring Domain. Before the Black and White Guardians could even get close to Ye Ling, they were drained into desiccated corpses by the Devouring Domain and fell from the sky!
"How is this possible!"
Huang's pupils contracted, and a monstrous wave surged in his heart! The two experts from the Nether Palace were also stunned. The Black and White Guardians were no weaker than them, yet they were so easily reduced to dried husks by Ye Ling. Just how strong was Ye Ling then?
"No... something's wrong... Quick, escape!" The two experts from the Nether Palace reacted, daring not to confront Ye Ling any longer, and turned to flee. However, before they could even tear open space, the World-Destroying Spirit Fire from Ye Ling flew out, directly swallowing the two Chaos Sovereigns and burning them to ashes!
The entire process took less than ten seconds. Four Chaos Sovereigns and Great Dao Immortal Lords were completely annihilated.
The surroundings fell into complete silence.
Huang stared blankly at Ye Ling standing in the air, his body trembling violently. "Wh-what exactly happened... Ye Ling... why is he so strong?" He couldn't imagine what Ye Ling had experienced to undergo such a drastic change in strength! When he had fled the Inner Universe, Ye Ling's strength hadn't even reached the Chaos Sovereign level. How could Ye Ling be this strong after such a short time? Unimaginable!
Ye Ling looked at the stunned Huang, narrowing his eyes and smiling. "Huang... it's only been a short while, and you've come running to deliver yourself."
"Should I... thank you?"
Infinite fear appeared on Huang's face!
