Chapter 2257 - 647: Rebirth by Fire, Vermilion Bird!
Everyone had left. An Yiqing was surrounded by the Church’s people, and Gu Yelin was being simultaneously attacked by Ossero and Patch, having no time to spare.
The Church’s fools were completely brainwashed by the Pope, all clamoring to serve God loyally, their fervor even more intense than the seppuku of Country Bai’s warriors.
An Yiqing had no intention of dying with them heroically, so her movements quickened even more.
Meanwhile, under Gu Yelin’s fierce assault, Patch and Ossero were beginning to struggle, their movements becoming chaotic.
A series of intense rumbling noises echoed in their ears. About to exit the secret passage, everyone halted momentarily, then quickened their pace again. Old Jin received An Yiqing’s command to encompass the Thirteen Blood Generals and others who had been swept out of the cave by Long Zixuan within the barrier.
"Where’s Xiao Qing?! What about General Gu?" Xia Hau, Ruan Xue, and the Blood Clan members, who were ambushed outside the cave, saw the Thirteen Blood Generals emerge but couldn’t see An Yiqing, their expressions simultaneously changed.
"Damn Church!" An Zhifeng didn’t bother to explain, leaping off Long Zixuan’s dragon back, ready to charge inside but got knocked back by Long Zixuan’s large tail with a "snap."
"Stay back! Aren’t you following the miss’s orders?!" the voice, mixed with dragon might, was deafening, "If anyone goes, it’s me. You all stay here!"
After saying this, he gave Old Jin and Xiao Hei a look, then turned and charged into the secret passage.
The ground tremors became increasingly violent, rapidly spreading beyond Lemin Mountain. Tourists visiting Lemin Mountain, believing it to be an earthquake, all stopped to await the tremors to pass.
Anpei Lan fled desperately; his white suit had turned earth gray. He gave a cold, sweeping glance at the entrance of Lemin Mountain Cave, pressing his thin lips into a straight line.
"Give me the phone." The Lemin Mountain volcano was about to erupt; it was necessary to notify the Prime Minister to arrange for aid.
Anpei Lan briefly explained the situation to the Country Bai Prime Minister, then made several successive phone calls. In no time, helicopters bearing the Anpei Clan insignia descended into the air.
The Onmyoji from the Anpei Clan scrambled aboard using soft ladders, while Anpei Lan stood on one, casting a complex look inside the cave before turning away.
However, just as he entered the helicopter, an earth-shattering boom erupted from deep within Lemin Mountain, followed by the entire mountain violently shaking and roaring.
At the same time, inside the secret passage, An Yiqing and Gu Yelin, having just dealt with the Church’s people, were racing madly towards the cave exit. But no matter how fast they ran, they couldn’t outpace the rising temperature of the magma. In the blink of an eye, the blistering heat spread throughout the secret passage. If it hadn’t been for An Yiqing and Gu Yelin shielding themselves with Inner Breath, they might have already turned to ash.
Biting her lip hard, the sound of imminent lava eruption reached her ears. An Yiqing exhaled a breath of foul air, grabbing Gu Yelin’s hand, ready to enter the Ancient Space.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a sudden change!
Bang—a thunderous noise, earth-shattering. Then, crackling sounds were heard one after another. Before An Yiqing and Gu Yelin could react, a massive crack appeared on the ground.
In an instant, the crack expanded into a chasm, with a scorching giant wave shooting skyward. Due to the violent shaking, An Yiqing and Gu Yelin involuntarily separated, coincidentally divided by the massive chasm.
"Ah Lin!" An Yiqing lunged forward but only grasped the scorching air. Watching helplessly as Gu Yelin moved further away, she once again felt that not being able to fly was not a good thing.
Gu Yelin’s face was grim as he tried to find a foothold to leap to An Yiqing’s side. But the chasm expanded too quickly, and the tremors were so severe that within seconds, a hundred-meter abyss separated them.
Looking down, through the Clairvoyant Eye, An Yiqing could clearly see the underground lava in the chasm flowing, threatening to gush out at any moment. If these things erupted, they would meet a tragic end.
"Ah Lin, enter the space!"
Just as the words were spoken, boom—a thunderous noise, and the ground instantly burst open. The lava, like a gigantic wave, opened its scorching, bloody maw to consume all life!
At the same time, a deafening dragon roar sounded in the distance. A purple figure stirred a cloud of dust, flashing towards them with lightning speed.
"Ah Xuan! Go back!" Just about to enter the space, An Yiqing’s complexion changed, her voice catching.
The rumbling was too loud for Long Zixuan to hear clearly. Hearing An Yiqing’s shout, he only rushed faster. An Yiqing anxiously watching this, lifted her feet to chase after him. However, Gu Yelin was a step quicker.
