113: As expected, it arrived.

This woman, how come I couldn't tell she was so reckless usually?

Nether Moon, who had been following behind Dongfang Yingxue all this time, helplessly massaged her forehead.

She also had some understanding regarding the situation in the Sea of Stars.

After all, this was a matter concerning the entire Qihuang Continent.

Therefore, as early as when Nether Moon discovered something was wrong, she had already taken some countermeasures.

Only... thinking of this, Nether Moon couldn't help but sigh.

Because she was originally supposed to deal with it together with the Demon Emperor of the Myriad Demon Kingdom.

But later, for some unknown reason, that Demon Emperor trapped himself within the Sea of Stars.

This led to Nether Moon being unable to cope with the corruption of the Extraterritorial Evil Demons' aura on her own.

In fact, besides searching for Gu Yuan, another reason for her visit this time was to discuss this matter with Dongfang Yingxue.

However, various errors occurred in between, resulting in her being unable to tell her about it until now.

Later, Nether Moon saw Dongfang Yingxue take the initiative to go to the Sea of Stars to investigate the situation.

She thought that by taking this opportunity, she could just tell her about the situation.

In the end, this woman didn't say a word and just started fighting immediately.

Emmm, there was no choice; Nether Moon could only reveal herself and fight alongside Dongfang Yingxue.

“Hold fast to your heart, be careful not to be corrupted by those evil thoughts!”

Nether Moon dispersed the evil aura around Dongfang Yingxue with a palm strike, while simultaneously coming to her side to give a reminder.

Hm?

Dongfang Yingxue looked at the suddenly appearing Nether Moon with some astonishment.

“Nether Moon, you, why are you here...?”

Nether Moon rolled her eyes upon hearing this and said irritably:

“Now is not the time for this, you stupid woman. Let's first disperse the evil aura in this area together.”

Dongfang Yingxue pursed her lips, but didn't argue with her.

After all, this woman was right; this was indeed the most important thing right now.

The strength of the creatures originally existing in the Sea of Stars was extremely powerful.

If not for the constraints of the Ancient Grand Formation, which prevented them from leaving the Sea of Stars,

Then the current Qihuang Continent would likely be far from as peaceful as it is now.

And now that they were corrupted by the aura of those Extraterritorial Evil Demons, their strength had gone up another level.

Although Dongfang Yingxue and Nether Moon were both powerhouses of the Great Dao Realm,

In the endless darkness before them, there were no lack of several beings comparable to Great Dao Realm experts.

Plus the other creatures that were surging up incessantly.

Those creatures ranged from the Purple Mansion Realm to the Heavenly Mandate Realm.

Dongfang Yingxue and Nether Moon gradually began to fall into a disadvantage.

“You stupid woman, if this Venerable One loses her life here today, it would truly be a grievance!”

Nether Moon struck out with her palm again and then said with a sigh.

As for Dongfang Yingxue, she remained silent throughout.

On one hand, regarding Nether Moon's action of nearly sacrificing her life to save her, she was... well, she didn't know what to say.

After all, before this, the two could be said to be mortal enemies.

Dongfang Yingxue never thought that one day, this woman Nether Moon would reach out to help her.

On the other hand, Dongfang Yingxue had already prepared herself to fight to the death.

With great power comes great responsibility.

Since she, Dongfang Yingxue, was the Sect Master of the Jade Moon Sect, she had the duty to protect the Jade Moon Sect and the entire Qihuang Continent.

This was the duty she must shoulder as Empress Qiongyue.

Nether Moon glanced at Dongfang Yingxue and shook her head somewhat helplessly.

As the person who knew her best, how could Nether Moon not guess Dongfang Yingxue's thoughts at this moment?

Nether Moon curled her lip, and as if thinking of something, she gave a light snort in her heart.

I'm afraid... even if you want to die here, someone won't agree.

Hmph, that philanderer, he's probably coming soon... Gu Yuan's figure flashed through Nether Moon's mind.

That stinky guy, although I don't know why, he always manages to appear when I encounter danger.

Although, although the person he's rescuing now has become Dongfang Yingxue.

Thinking of this, Nether Moon couldn't help but pout her small mouth with a bit of resentment.

And just at this moment, this area that had already fallen into endless darkness was suddenly broken open by an extremely brilliant light.

This light was brilliant to the extreme; in this area where almost any light would be swallowed up, this light seemed as if it would never disappear.

Tch... as expected, he came, hmph hmph~

Nether Moon gave a light snort and looked at the familiar figure in that light, her beautiful eyes couldn't help but daze slightly.

And Dongfang Yingxue, who was originally struggling to resist those Extraterritorial Evil Demons, was also somewhat astonished at this time.

Hm...?

Wha— what's the situation? Why did a light suddenly appear... Wait... that person is...?

Looking at that black-robed figure within the light, Dongfang Yingxue was somewhat stunned.

Isn't this the person who saved me before?

How could he also be in the Sea of Stars...?

Dongfang Yingxue's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her heart filled with a few more suspicions.

No one else knew about her coming to the Sea of Stars this time except for the Elders within the Jade Moon Sect.

Why would this person appear in the Sea of Stars, and why did he happen to come and save her once again so coincidentally?

Ultimately, she wasn't clear about this person's identity either.

But for some reason, Dongfang Yingxue always felt that the feeling that person gave her was extremely familiar!

She hadn't felt it when she was saved by him for the first time.

But seeing this person again this time, Dongfang Yingxue felt it was very familiar.

Strange, why on earth is this...?

Dongfang Yingxue was bewildered... “Whew, luckily I made it in time...”

When Gu Yuan saw that his Revered Master was not in any major trouble, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Eh, wait, why is Mingyue by Revered Master's side again!?

Gu Yuan had just breathed a sigh of relief, and then he saw Nether Moon beside Dongfang Yingxue.

Gu Yuan was directly stunned; he had encountered Mingyue when he rescued Revered Master last time, how could he encounter her again this time?

Looking at Mingyue's expression as she secretly pouted at him, Gu Yuan couldn't help but cough lightly and then returned a look to her.

Luckily he had hinted to Mingyue before, telling her not to expose his identity.

Otherwise, if Mingyue suddenly said, 'Gu Yuan, you're finally here,' then wouldn't he be finished?

Gu Yuan shook his head slightly, no longer thinking about these things, but instead placed his gaze on the endless darkness below.

What... what's the situation here!?

How did it end up looking like the end of the world...?

If it weren't for being in a Xuanhuan world, Gu Yuan would have thought he had encountered some Cthulhu awakening.

There was no other way; this scene looked too much like a picture of an Ancient God descending.

“You two step back and rest for now; leave the rest to me.”

Gu Yuan said in a raspy voice, then drew a circle around Dongfang Yingxue and Nether Moon to protect them.
