Sealed Divine Throne

Chapter 561: The bloody female wargod’s tears (II)

The Holy War had gone on for close to two years, and both parties’ consumption was very large. Originally, the demon army seemed to be rather more restful, only occasionally launching some symbolic offenses. The Southeastern Fort took advantage of that to rest its troops, but for some reason no one knew, the demon army once again made an all-out offense one week ago, and this attack was even fiercer than the past ones. Immediately, all the powerhouses of the Southeastern Mountain Pass had to join the battlefield, and an unstoppable battle followed then. The whole fort was now full of the stench of blood. historical

Wang Yuanyuan was still standing on the first row of the battlefield, defending the walls. Compared to the time of the Holy War, her shield and blade had gained a dense layer of blood color. That not only was due to piercing the enemies, but furthermore, it carried a fierce aggressivity, born from countless slaughters.

Wang Yuanyuan’s appearance wasn’t much different from before, but her manners had undergone an earth shattering change; she was extremely cold and steady. Even in the midst of slaughters, her appearance didn’t change at all despite that her whole body was suffused with reeking blood. Even those veterans from the Warrior Temple couldn’t compare with her fierce and ruthless moves.

And Wang Yuanyuan’s cultivation made rapid progress. From the continuous slaughter, she accumulated a large amount of killing intent, and by some unknown method she made continuous breakthroughs thanks to the stimulation of her Gigantic Divine Soul Shield. Now, her cultivation had already exceeded Zhang Fangfang whose breakthrough to the seventh step happened a long time before.

Her dedication moved every higher-up of the Warrior Temple.

Fifth rank of the seventh step: that was the level currently reached by Wang Yuanyuan’s internal spiritual energy. Adding to that the terrifying weapons of slaughter in her hand, she would definitely fully deserve to be called a slaughter god if such an election were to take place. From the start of the Holy War to the current time, she had never missed any battle. At most, she could sometimes remain fighting in the fort’s area for five days and five nights before fainting due to exhausting her physical force and being carried away. After coming back to her senses, she would, regardless of anyone’s obstruction, stand back on the Southeastern Mountain Pass.

By now, Wang Yuanyuan was acclaimed as a hero for the Southeastern Fort since long before, as well as an idol for the overwhelming majority of the warriors.

Zhang Fangfang didn’t have his own Demon Hunt Squad anymore, and had been following Wang Yuanyuan’s side silently all the time. He had tried many times to convince her, and many times jumped in front of her to block the enemies for her sake, yet Wang Yuanyuan had never listened to his persuasion.

At last, Zhang Fangfang’s attitude also came to change gradually. His feelings actually didn’t weaken from seeing her determination, but instead became even stronger. And furthermore, he also started to get influenced by Wang Yuanyuan, changing his ways from a Guardian Knight to a Retribution Knight, achieving his share of frantic kills, although quite slower than Wang Yuanyuan.

At the moment, Zhang Fangfang was standing beside her, his armor covered in multiple colors since long before. The heavy sword he had in one hand was dedicated to killing the enemy, and the shield in his other hand was entirely dedicated to blocking the attacks aimed at Wang Yuanyuan. The two of them were walking their way out of mountains of corpses. If not for the protection of the spiritual stoves at their disposal and the meticulous watch of the Warrior Temple’s higher-ups, who knew how many times they would have already died in the battlefield by now.

Three immense Demonic Bears, who had been catapulted directly to the fortress, went after the two of them, waving large hammers, and met with Wang Yuanyuan’s attacks.

Bang!?The first Demonic Bear’s attack met with the parry of Zhang Fangfang’s shield as a second one was met with his heavy sword.

With a stuffy groan, Zhang Fangfang spit some blood. He had already stopped counting the number of times he sustained such wounds, and even started to grow accustomed to it.

In a violent clash, the two Demonic Bears were forced away. Everything Zhang Fangfang did was in order to stall for time for Wang Yuanyuan’s sake.

The Divine Soul Shield smashed the two hammers, and the result that followed conformed with Bloodstorm’s name.

On the fortress, another carnage followed. Even with the Demonic Bears’ great violence, the other two couldn’t help but display some fear at the sight of their partner being cut off by Bloodstorm. In panic, they lost the will to keep advancing as they didn’t dare confront the slaughterer Wang Yuanyuan was.

The Gigantic Divine Soul Shield supported on the ground, Wang Yuanyuan took large gasps for breath. Aiming an almost blood colored look at Zhang Fangfang, he nodded lightly to her.

Zhang Fangfang then forced a smile, “I’m alright. You go take a little break, I will be standing on guard.”

Wang Yuanyuan remained silent. Many times, camaraderie didn’t require words, but engraved feelings.

Right at this time, a golden pillar of light appeared out of nowhere, encompassing Wang Yuanyuan inside. Then came another one landing on Zhang Fangfang.

A dense warmth and very pleasurable light rapidly provided nourishment for their bodies. In the midst of sweet sounds, two golden angels appeared out of nowhere, flapping their sets of six wings, and held Zhang Fangfang and Wang Yuanyuan from behind.

They had already been fighting on the Southeastern Mountain Pass for three days and three nights and were quite tired and wounded. Their spiritual energies were already close to collapse, so this time, these two powerful healing spells were no less than the perfect help they needed. Both their physical force and spiritual energy recovered at astonishing speeds.

Most of all, Zhang Fangfang was greatly shocked to see how pure the golden radiance shining upon Wang Yuanyuan was. Aside from a golden color, that image of angels faintly let out a pure and holy aura. The blood color filling Wang Yuanyuan’s eyes unexpectedly disappeared rapidly on her embrace. Which was to say, she was not only healing her wounds, but furthermore soothing her soul full of murderous spirit. This was the first time Zhang Yuanyuan saw such a use of Angel’s Embrace, healing both the body and the spirit.

Subconsciously, Zhang Fangfang and Wang Yuanyuan raised their head, to see four figures rushing to them from the sky. The two knights in the lot were the users of Angel’s Embrace.

As they landed swiftly on the ground, a large amount of fireballs came out from the Fire Cloud Crystal Staff of the mage clad in fire-red color, getting rid of the demons in a large area be they on the ground or in the skies. These blue fireballs produced a dense smell of charcoal, obviously from the demon soldiers’ scorching.

Some rather stronger ones escaped this fate, including the previous two Demonic Bears that had just escaped from the side, but they all died in the midst of grey flickers of light. Almost within the time of one breath, the portion of the wall assigned to Zhang Fangfang and Wang Yuanyuan became a lot more tranquil.

Han Yu stepped forward, waving his heavy shield, which blocked in front of him. Lin Xin arrived onto his back, without stopping the attacks from his staff in the slightest. The powerful offensive strength of a fire mage came into full display: in front of his powerful magic onslaught, no demons were—for the moment—able to approach them.

“Han Yu, Lin Xin, Cai’er?” Wang Yuanyuan had a hoarse voice, full of disbelief. Ever since the start of the Holy War, this was the first time the hands gripping her weapons trembled.

“Yuanyuan, I’m here too.” From behind the Golden Foundation Armor’s mask came Haochen’s voice.

Clangclang.?The weapons on Wang Yuanyuan’s hands were dropped at the same time as her body swayed, on the edge of collapsing, but Zhang Fangfang hastened to support her.

“Boss… Boss, you guys finally came.”

On the Southeastern Fort, Wang Yuanyuan, that tough beyond compare and bloodily attacking bloody war goddess, actually lost control of her feelings and burst into tears.

Long Haochen stepped forward and gave him a vigorous hug without care for the bloodstains on her, “We arrived. And now, we have to go gather with Ying’er and Sima. The sixty fourth commander grade Demon Hung Squad is reforming. No, the day it will reform, it will be at the king grade.”

“Mh, mh…” Wang Yuanyuan was empty of words, as her tears flowed uncontrollably.

Because of her lack of confidence, she was probably the one who had the most painful times in the team: for close to two years she struggled to the brink of death almost every day, finding breakthroughs in desperate battles. This was so that she wouldn’t be left behind by the others, for the day they would be able to reform their team.

Long Haochen came, and Cai’er, Han Yu, Lin Xin as well. They haven’t forgotten me, and they came for me. So our Demon Hunt Squad is finally reforming!?This instant, Wang Yuanyuan felt totally emptied of force, finally relaxing her stretched mental state, unable to control her emotions anymore.

Long Haochen returned her to Zhang Fangfang’s arms, “Brother Zhang, thank you.”

Zhang Fangfang sighed lightly, “All I did regarding Yuanyuan was only for my own sake. I haven’t been able to protect my comrades, so if I am not even able to protect her, then I can only follow her in that fate.”

Long Haochen said next, “While Yuanyuan is unstable emotionally, I’ll be leaving her to brother Zhang’s protection. Let’s have a chat after this battle is over.”

As he raised his right hand, Rippling Light appeared in his grasp. The extremity of his foot tapping onto the ground, Long Haochen arrived at Han Yu’s side in one movement.

By simply observing the situation, one could see that Lin Xin and Cai’er were on the offense, with Han Yu standing on defense. As long as no enemy powerhouse over the eighth step came, this defensive front would hardly be broken.

Long Haochen drew back rapidly, reached Han Yu’s back, and then started chanting resonantly.

Ever since coming out of seclusion, Long Haochen often became closer to a light elemental mage. Furthermore, his light elemental spells were far more powerful than mages’. The affinity of a god’s chosen one with his element made him frequently able to unleash magic far above his own rank.

At the time he studied in the cave, Long Haochen focused mostly on defensive Guardian Knight abilities and healing ones. By relying on his great advantages as a god’s chosen one, he could even maintain a domain for some time, just like a Holy Knight of the ninth step. This was also where those few forbidden spells of light element came from.
