Chapter 860 (These Two Are Very Injured)
Yang Yao sighed softly. Shi Yu was still too young; he couldn't handle a fright like that. The other side just counted down numbers, and they were already scared off. Even the Valley Master was similarly frightened despite being at the peak level God. It's truly baffling.
Xiang Liren and Shi Yu stood alone, receiving the ridicule of everyone. It wasn't a pleasant feeling, but they had made their choice, and now they had to face the consequences.
Especially when they saw Mu Xinhai's expression, Xiang Liren and Shi Yu could feel that he intended to kill them both. So, they could only hope that the Voidless Empire could withstand the damage.
Seeing two people fly out, Lie Gu was a bit surprised because these two were quite clever. However, considering there were millions of people, having only two intelligent individuals was a dreadfully low ratio. It seemed that the people of the Sapphire Continent were mostly simpletons. Praise should be given where it's due.
"Those two over there, you have made the most honourable choice of your lives. You will feel proud and arrogant for it," Lie Gu said. However, as he spoke, Xiang Liren and Shi Yu couldn't find it in them to smile. The Voidless Empire should at least display some strength. At the very least, close the city gate. Your carelessness, the Emperor will know…
Mu Xinhai narrowed his eyes. Faced with such humiliation, he had to redeem it through a battle; otherwise, even if he managed to capture the city with his massive army, it would be a disgrace that hadn't been cleansed.
"You dare to challenge us!" Mu Xinhai shouted at Lie Gu.
'Fuck, someone actually dares to challenge me. That takes some courage!'
However, just as Lie Gu was about to respond, footsteps appeared on the stairs, causing his expression to immediately sour. 'Someone's here! Who is it? Who wants to seize the opportunity to show off like me!'
Mu Xinhai saw that the opposing commander appeared flustered, and he burst into laughter, "Haha, that's all there is to it!"
Xiang Liren and Shi Yu wished for death at that moment. Big brother... What kind of expression is that? Can you please put on a more confident look? Even if you're just putting on an act, for heaven's sake, give us some confidence. You have to remember that when we broke out, it took immense courage. Don't deceive us, okay?
Xiang Liren and Shi Yu turned their gaze towards Mu Xinhai, and to their surprise, he revealed a wicked grin. Oh god... Don't toy with us like this. Where did that imposing aura go? Please, show some confidence.
Lie Gu completely ignored their reactions, his attention focused on the faint footsteps. 'Who is it? If they're one of my underlings, they should listen to me and not disrupt me. However, if it's one of the Seven Deadly Sins, it's a different story.' From the subtle footsteps, Lie Gu dared to conclude that it was a woman! Among the Seven Deadly Sins, only Ye Zizi and Brittany were women. Brittany took care of Jue Tian daily and had no time to come out.
'It had better not be Ye Zizi! God, please spare me! Buddha, please spare me!'
"Oh, Lie Gu, what are you doing?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Lie Gu felt despair. This expression was observed by millions of people, who erupted into raucous laughter. This was the expression of a person who was about to die!
Not only was Lie Gu in despair, but Xiang Liren and Shi Yu felt the same way. This despair had no added seasonings, it was pure and unadulterated.
"Wow, so many people," Ye Zizi exclaimed, covering her small mouth in surprise.
Lie Gu went to Ye Zizi's side and pushed her toward the stairs. "Zizi, be good. It's still early; go back and take a nap."
Ye Zizi pursed her little lips. "Alright, I'll go wake Your Honor."
Lie Gu: "..."
"Zizi, are we siblings?" Lie Gu asked in a low voice.
"Yeah."
"Am I good to you?"
"You're good."
"Then, would you go back to sleep?"
"No."
Lie Gu: "..."
"My dear Zizi, what do you want?" Lie Gu was exasperated. Why did he have to run into Ye Zizi of all people? He would have preferred to meet any other woman.
Ye Zizi grinned. "Of course, to have some fun. Do you want to play alone?"
Helpless, Lie Gu could only compromise, "Alright, we agree not to be sulky."
"Okay, no sulking." A mischievous look gleamed in Ye Zizi's crimson eyes.
Lie Gu had no choice but to temporarily trust Ye Zizi, and his complexion gradually returned to normal.
This made Xiang Liren and Shi Yu, not far away, relieved. This was the kind of intimidating demeanour they expected. All was well now... all was well...
But who was this little girl? Just now, this man seemed to be quite afraid of her. It was really strange.
Could this little girl be an expert? However, there was no way to tell from her appearance; wasn't she just a child?
Seeing Ye Zizi directly jumping down, Lie Gu was stupefied. 'I haven't even said who will play the first round, and you just jumped down like this.'
Looking at Ye Zizi's leap, Xiang Liren and Shi Yu were seriously concerned. You have such a big Voidless Empire, don't you have anyone else? Sending a little girl to fight is just absurd. Do you want to kill us so badly?
Such a cute little girl was about to die; it was truly heart-wrenching. And they were about to die soon too...
Oh god, please don't treat us like this.
Ye Zizi stood on the snowy ground, gazing at the millions of people in front of her and said, "Who wants to play with me? Send someone strong."
Mu Xinhai, of course, wouldn't personally step into the first battle. The commander should only enter when things can't be resolved by the subordinates.
However, Mu Xinhai didn't expect the opposing side to send a little girl; she was really no different from a child.
"Who is willing to fight for me?" Mu Xinhai shouted.
"I am!"
Suddenly, Yang Yao stepped forward and floated in front of Mu Xinhai, bowing respectfully.
Seeing Yang Yao's actions, Shi Yu couldn't help but feel exasperated. 'Why are you in such a hurry? Let's assess the situation first. Right now, we don't even know the enemy's strength.'
Yang Yao's idea was straightforward. This was a good opportunity to gain trust. "Alright! If you win this battle, you'll be remembered in history."
"Thank you, Lord!" Yang Yao was delighted. It seemed like his decision was the right one!
Yang Yao's actions were based on underestimating Ye Zizi due to her age. He believed that a little girl couldn't be too strong. Using such a little girl to gain the lord's trust was quite profitable. He wouldn't lose anything, and he could gain a lot. Initially, Shi Yi also considered fighting but hesitated in the end, letting Yang Yao get ahead.
However, Shi Yu didn't think much about it. He just saw this as an opportunity to prove himself.
After taking the order, Yang Yao flew toward Ye Zizi and stood not too far in front of her.
"I am Yang Yao, and I don't kill nameless people. State your name, and I'll make sure you die quickly!" Yang Yao summoned his Lingci, preparing to launch various attacks.
