I'm also desperate.

Chapter 998 Third Elder of the You Family

Just as if the spiritual root only truly began to function when the host's strength reached the Yu realm.

The previous small help was like a small fight, and compared with the current assistance, it was not worth mentioning at all!

Correspondingly, when he greatly used the power of the Guiling Gen (Bizarre Spiritual Root) to get help, the threat in the eyes of the Yincha (Underworld Messenger) naturally became greater.

So, I'm afraid that sooner or later, he will have to face that kind of existence!

Of course, right now, he just wants to rescue the person he should rescue. As for other things, he can only cross the bridge when he comes to it.

Fang Yue has never had any grand plans, and now he just wants to know some information about the Yeyue (Night Moon) clan.

Thinking of this, Fang Yue looked at Qi Ba Jiu with bright eyes.

"Please help me, Lord Qi Ba Jiu!"

"The Yincha (Underworld Messenger) are unpredictable. Even I avoid them. In the eyes of Yu realm martial artists like us, the Yincha (Underworld Messenger) are no different from the legendary immortals. They are incomprehensible existences, so I can't help you with this. As for the Yeyue (Night Moon) clan, I don't know much about them either. I've only heard some rumors that everyone in the Yeyue (Night Moon) clan has a spiritual root, and everyone can cultivate to the realm of immortals, and they even did business related to spiritual roots. However, for some unknown reason, they were exterminated many years ago and disappeared without a trace."

What Lord Qi Ba Jiu said was basically the same as what Lord Han had said.

It can be seen that information about the Yeyue (Night Moon) clan in Qing state is indeed very limited.

"Boy, with your ability, protecting Wei Ba (Tail) is more than enough. I have consumed my power continuously and cannot appear in the short term. You must ensure her safety and protect her."

Fang Yue's expression became solemn: "Lord Qi Ba Jiu, don't worry, I won't let Wei Ba (Tail) get hurt!"

Lord Qi Ba Jiu shook her head slightly. This blockhead... She wanted to say something more, to fight for something for Wei Ba's (Tail) efforts, but as soon as she opened her mouth...

Boom!!

A cracking thunder suddenly resounded through the night sky, drowning out all other sounds.

In the continuous black clouds, lightning as bright as day lit up.

Under the lightning, a towering spiritual tree piercing through the clouds in the distance, looming in the void, stood next to the Qing Gao Building, motionless, emitting a strange cyan light.

On the main trunk of the spiritual tree, countless branches split out, with rows of human bodies hanging like jerky, absorbing the nutrients from these human bodies and turning them into the power of the spiritual tree.

When the lightning dimmed, the towering spiritual tree also disappeared, leaving only the sound of blood rain, falling faster and faster.

Lord Qi Ba Jiu wanted to continue the previous topic, but saw Fang Yue staring at the direction where the spiritual tree disappeared, his expression excited and his body trembling slightly.

"It... stopped!"

"What?"

"The spiritual tree has stopped moving at high speed! I don't know how long it will stay in this state, but without a doubt, this is an opportunity! A chance to rescue An Dong'er and You Sisi!"

Time is of the essence, especially after seeing the corpses hanging on the spiritual tree, Fang Yue felt even more urgency in his heart.

He glanced at the direction of the Qing Gao Building, and then at the imperial palace in almost the opposite direction. Fang Yue took a deep breath.

"Lord Qi Ba Jiu, please take Wei Ba (Tail) to the imperial palace for refuge. I'll go over there alone to check the situation."

Although he said he was going to check the situation, anyone could see that Fang Yue was going to risk his life.

Lord Qi Ba Jiu sighed: "Alright, then I'll let Wei Ba (Tail)..."

The flames suddenly extinguished.

The frost melted into water droplets.

'Lord Qi Ba Jiu' suddenly had a dull expression, and the next moment she suddenly grabbed Fang Yue's arm.

"I'll go with you!"

The voice came from... Wei Ba (Tail)!

Fang Yue wanted to refuse, but suddenly thought of the hardships Wei Ba (Tail) had gone through along the way. Going to the imperial palace, the dangers she might encounter along the way, might as well stay by his side, so he could take care of her at any time. After all, if he really had to climb the tree to save people, it could only be him alone, and he wouldn't let Wei Ba (Tail) take the risk.

After nodding slightly, Fang Yue put his arm around Wei Ba (Tail), unfolded his movement technique, and his speed suddenly exploded, rushing towards the direction where the spiritual tree was!

The sudden increase of 100 spirit points directly increased his strength tenfold.

This sudden increase made Fang Yue a little uncomfortable, and he couldn't control his strength for a while, but he was quickly adjusting and adapting.

And Wei Ba (Tail) in his arms, after being stunned for a while, fell into a strange silence, only her ears gradually turning red, silently hugging Fang Yue tightly.

Fang Yue thought that Wei Ba's (Tail) reaction was the same as his, not adapting to this ultra-high-speed movement, so she was just a little scared. He didn't think much about it, but the next second he heard Wei Ba (Tail) suddenly scream.

"Ye-ge (Brother Ye), stop! We shouldn't go this way..."

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly stopped, and Fang Yue also stopped in confusion.

At this time, Fang Yue noticed that the direction they were heading was actually the direction of the Juan Niao (Cuckoo Bird) Building!

And the position where they stopped now was just in the area near the Juan Niao (Cuckoo Bird) Building.

According to Wei Ba (Tail), there are several royal family You Gui (Wandering Spirits) fighting with the You family's Grand Elder over there.

Although Fang Yue wanted to help, he had more important things to do now, and he couldn't waste time fighting You Gui (Wandering Spirits). Everything was focused on reaching the Qing Gao Building and rescuing You Sisi and the others as the primary goal.

Just as Fang Yue was thinking about taking a detour to avoid this area, he saw Wei Ba (Tail) in his arms suddenly widen her eyes, cover her mouth in shock, and let out a trembling voice.

"Impossible... this corpse is..."

Corpse?

Fang Yue followed Wei Ba's (Tail) gaze and saw three corpses cut in half lying not far ahead.

One female and two males.

The male corpses died tragically, and the female's body was relatively intact, but death is death. How the corpse is after death doesn't really matter.

"Who are they?" Fang Yue asked strangely, but Wei Ba's (Tail) answer made his pupils shrink suddenly.

"They are... the You family's Third Elder!"

Wei Ba (Tail) didn't expect to see the corpses of the You family's Third Elder here.

The You Long, You family's Grand Elder, who had instantly killed her, was now with a miserable death appearance, rolling her eyes, and completely out of breath.

At the broken part of the upper half of the corpse, the intestines were exposed, and blood flowed, and was thrown away like garbage in the ruins, ignored.

Wei Ba (Tail) was actually a little moved by this woman who killed herself.

Who would have thought that the woman with such a tragic death was actually a top expert at the peak of the Yu realm, the You family's Grand Elder of the Qing state's four great families.

For a moment, Wei Ba (Tail) was filled with thoughts.

When people die, they leave with nothing. If she had done something before she died, she might have regretted it for the rest of her life.

Wei Ba (Tail) looked at Fang Yue, but saw Fang Yue taking her over, putting her aside, and then bending over... to search the corpses.

After a while, Fang Yue turned back in frustration.

"Nothing was left behind. Are you sure she's really the You family's Grand Elder?"

"..."
