The ninth day.
Shen Tu Nantian looked at the sky. The Sun was about to set and tomorrow was the last day. If the upper echelons of the Desolate race did not come, then Yi Yun would be put to death.
“Young master Nantian, I am afraid that the Desolate race will not come. Setting up this Heaven Earth Empyreal Array was not cheap…”
Beside Shen Tu Nantian was an elder in white robes. His eyebrows were very long and hanged down like two white snakes.
The Heaven Earth Empyreal Array needed the blood essence of primordial species in order to draw the array lines. 108 refined desolate bones were also needed to be used as the array flags.
Creating this set of array flags was costly. Furthermore, this kinds of array flags could not be permanently used. A bit of their lifespans would be consumed with every use.
Shen Tu Nantian then said, “Elder Su, Elder Mo, I wish that you do not take this lightly. That witch girl is of a very special status amongst the Desolate race. Her wishes would be valued greatly by the Desolate race. The Heaven Earth Empyreal Array may be expensive, but if we can capture a few high ranking Desolate race members, as well as stop this beast horde, then we can even take this opportunity to capture that witch girl. If we do, then this amount of investment can essentially be ignored.”
The two elders did not reply. They went back to their own positions to meditate and rest. They were recuperating to ensure that they would be in tip-top condition.
However, to the two elders, this obvious trap would likely not give any returns. No high-ranking Desolate race member would want to send themselves to death.
The moon was high up in the sky as a night wind blew through the Chu Prefecture City.
On a mountain in the city outskirts, a lone, silver wolf howled while facing the silver like full moon.
The lone wolf howled.
Beside the silver wolf was a youth holding a bamboo flute that was not more than a foot long. He stood there in solitude.
His eyes like deep, dark, black gemstones. It reflected lights that were brighter than the stars. Behind the youth was a vast galaxy. The silver light was like a waterfall falling from the sky. The scene was reminiscent to that of a dream.
The green-clothed youth looked into the distance towards the Chu Prefecture City. The night wind blew up his green hair band as it fluttered in the wind.
Under the night sky, the Chu Prefecture City was like a huge black beast that was just waiting for his arrival.
The green-clothed youth took a step on the flowing wind and started levitating…
“Huh!?”
Elder Su and Elder Mo, who were meditating, suddenly opened their eyes. They had simultaneously felt a strong presence approaching.
And it was not the Yuan Qi energy of humans, but the surging Power of Desolates!
Power of Desolates… Desolate race!?
They really came!?
The eyes of the two elders flashed. They leapt up into the sky and flew with a golden beam trailing their feet. One of them held a golden sword while the other held a bronze mirror. They were like two gods of war flying in the air.
It was unexpected that with the two of them there, and with the Heaven Earth Empyreal Array, that a Desolate race member was actually willing to come to his death!
To come alone was a military taboo. Besides, they were fresh and fit, with a trap set up. This member of the Desolate race was absolutely crazy!
At this moment, Shen Tu Nantian also flew out from a palace. He was extremely excited that a member of the Desolate race would actually come.
With this, his plan had meaning to it.
If the Desolate race did not bother with Yi Yun, then even if Yi Yun’s heart was dismembered in a day’s time, it would just be the execution of a cripple. It would be no different from stepping on an ant.
