Chapter 1369 Goldridge Mountain Mine
Didnt Li Tianming ask you for metal veins? After Li Tianming swept up all the metal veins on Soulbreak Mountain and Greenjade Mountain, you refused to give him any more so he set his sights on the House of Dongyes metal veins. Just a while ago, he and Long Wanying invaded the Goldridge Mountain Mine and broke through our defense formation. After attacking my clansmen, the Whitedragon Empress occupied the mine. I still cant figure out how they managed to hollow out the mine so quickly. Does it have something to do with Li Tianmings fifth lifebound beast?
The metal vein was protected by their people, as well as a formation. It wasnt easy for Tianming to forcibly seize it. After all, the people stationed there were rather strong. Of course, it was all a lie. Goldridge Mountain had long been emptied by Yin Chen.
Arent we near the mine? Gujian Qingshuang asked with a frown.
Yeah, thats why the transmission stone arrived so quickly. Head Instructor, its fine. Its just a metal vein. We cant afford to offend them. Despite his words, Ye Dongliu looked extremely bitter and upset.
No. Even if hes a Sky Palace disciple and shes the Whitedragon Empress, they cant take it by force. Are they bandits? Gujian Qingshuang retorted.
Then....
Since theyve just broken into the mine, well go over and demand an explanation, said Gujian Qingshuang.
Thank you so much, Head Instructor!
A lots happened lately. The Azurecloud Divine Tree is related to our ten thousand-year plan. These people are supposed to be our support. How can they push us around like this? Thats too much! Even after what happened to the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect, Long Wanying still refuses to stop, Ye Dongliu griped.
Dont say any more.
Goldridge Mountain wasnt far. Gujian Qingshuang and Ye Dongliu quickly arrived at their destination. The grade-five formation had already been destroyed and the earth was scorched. However, Gujian Qingshuang didnt see anyone.
Where did they all go?
Theyre probably tied up and held in the mine below. They certainly wouldnt want this to be exposed. They didnt think my clansmen would send out a transmission stone. Im afraid they might kill everyone to silence them....
Thus, Gujian Qingshuang and Ye Dongliu entered the cave, going deep into the mine. The deeper they went, the darker and hotter it got. There was lava everywhere.
This way.
Following the audible voices, they continued forward. In the blink of an eye, they had reached the depths of the mine, the darkness engulfing them. The divine ores buried in the earth had to be washed before they could reveal their brilliance.
Just as they were climbing out of a metal vein, the earth behind them loosened. It sounded like a giant beast was moving. Then came the harsh sound of metal colliding against metal. Gujian Qingshuang was stunned.
Is this the Divine Worldeater Cauldron?
Rooted to the spot, Gujian Qingshuang turned to look around. It was so dark, he couldnt even see his fingers. It was obvious the cauldron had been sealed as soon as they entered it.
It appears so! Is Yu Ziqian here as well? Is this a trap?! Ye Dongliu said in shock.
A trap? Eyes gloomy, Gujian Qingshuang studied his surroundings, the gears in his head rapidly spinning. Long Wanying has no reason to deal with me. Somethings wrong.... He was extremely vigilant.
The two men had their backs to each other. Taking a deep breath, Gujian Qingshuang said, Long Wanying, what stupid game are you playing? Come out! Theres no way you can stop me with just Yu Ziqian controlling the Divine Worldeater Cauldron. Why go against an insignificant man like me? Its just a metal mine, its not worth all this trouble.
In the darkness, Long Wanying, Yang Ce, and Yan Nuxia appeared.
Is something the matter? Ye Dongliu angrily asked.
Shut up. It isnt your place to speak. Long Wanying glared at Ye Dongliu, turning her attention to Gujian Qingshuang.
What game are you playing? Gujian Qingshuang coldly said. He already had his weapon, lifebound beasts, and a transmission stone prepared. However, he couldnt quite comprehend their actions. Killing him wouldnt do them any good; in fact, they needed him.
Were going to kill the two of you, Long Wanying said.
Why? Gujian Qingshuang asked in confusion.
Long Wanying, are you crazy? Ye Dongliu shouted.
No, Im not. Its your fault for attempting to kill Jiang Qingliu over and over again, Gujian Qingshuang. Long Wanying sneered.
You! Gujian Qingshuang was dumbfounded. When he turned around, he noticed a sixth person in the cauldron, standing behind him. It was Jiang Qingliu, the man in possession of the Azuresoul Tower.
Head Instructor, Im sorry. I cant give you the Azuresoul Tower.
Gujian Qingshuang uncontrollably trembled, a manifestation of the inner struggle and avoidance that surfaced as a result of the revelation of his hearts darkest desires. The Divine Worldeater Cauldron, Yu Ziqian, Long Wanying, and the others had all appeared. Of course, Jiang Qingliu was involved. The man also knew he wanted to harm him!
Uncle Ye, lets fight our way out of here. Yu Ziqian cant control the cauldron that well! Gujian Qingshuang said.
Yes!
Now!
Upon his command, Ye Dongliu pulled out his sword while Gujian Qingshuang turned to attack Jiang Qingliu. However, Ye Dongliu thrust his sword into Gujian Qingshuangs back. The sword exited through his abdomen and blood burst from his wound. After a moment of stunned silence, Gujian Qingshuang looked back at Ye Dongliu, his mind sluggish with shock.
You? That was the most puzzling part.
Im sorry, Head Instructor. Youll soon know why.... Pulling out his sword, Ye Dongliu retreated.
In that instant, Yang Ce, Long Wanying, Yan Nuxia, and Jiang Qingliu besieged Gujian Qingshuang. Every attack was swift and precise, because they knew this was a battle they couldnt lose!
Outside the Divine Worldeater Cauldron.
Good news! Yu Ziqian excitedly said. They were waiting near the lid of the cauldron; Yu Ziqian had used his own meager power to seal it.
I know. Tianming was a little nervous.
Through Yin Chen, he knew Ye Donglius every word and move. He had ordered Ye Dongliu to find an opportunity to make the first strike. And when Gujian Qingshuangs murderous plan was revealed, Ye Dongliu, his most trusted friend, had stabbed him with his sword.
Tianmings plan had worked! Even if Gujian Qingshuang possessed an astral physique, he would have sustained at least a moderate injury. With his combat effectiveness taking a dip at the start of the battle, he would only be fighting with eighty percent of his usual strength even though his lifebound beasts were unharmed.
Battle had broken out in the Divine Worldeater Cauldron. With Ye Dongliu on their side, it was five against one. Thunderous roars sounded in the depths of the mine. Compared to the Greatriver Valley, the mine was actually a better location.
The people in the mine had been transferred out. They didnt actually damage the formation. Ye Buzhiqiu had even come to improve it to ensure the noise inside couldnt be heard outside. With Ye Buzhiqiu in control of the formation, it was impossible for Gujian Qingshuang to leave even if he managed to escape from the cauldron. All transmission stones would be intercepted as well. When theyd first come up with the plan, Long Wanying and the others believed they had a good chance of success.
