Dance Of The Phoenix
198. Lose out?

Bai Youzhe's soul power had a devastating nature. He could also absorb the strength of one's soul to destroy it. That was what he did to Li Hua. As Li Hua wailed his soul force was gradually absorbed when colliding with Bai Youzhe, his face turned pale.

How could this brat be so powerful in just a few years!

Bai Youzhe is crazy! He was as crazy as Gu Yuena. Absorbing a person's soul force in large quantities would destroy his soul!

Li Hua's strength loosened because of the shock. In the end, he was forced to accept Bai Youzhe's attack which sent him crashing quite far away. Bai Youzhe did not stop. He darted in pursuit, then raised his sword to give a fatal strike.

Li Hua gritted his teeth. He looked at his soul power in Bai Youzhe's hands, then was forced to take the difficult choice. He was going to make that soul force crumble and tear Bai Youzhe's soul apart!

As his soul power was thinning, he could not use the Soul Rakshasa anymore. He could only stall for time until Bai Youzhe destroyed Li Hua's soul force, then attacked him at the same time.

Seeing Li Hua flying into the fighting area of Gu Yuena and Yang Xinyuan, Gu Yuena suddenly felt a bad feeling. Bai Youzhe was in an abnormal situation, and it seemed like Li Hua wanted to take them all to the grave together!

"Surge!" Yang Xinyuan subconsciously commemorated and distanced Gu Yuena from Li Hua.

Yang Xinyuan's scythe slid towards Gu Yuena, making Gu Yuena have to block it and retreat a few meters. The scythe returned to the hands of Yang Xinyuan who was now facing Li Hua.

"You!" Li Hua was very upset to see Gu Yuena being kept away. He looked towards Bai Youzhe, then back at Yang Xinyuan. "Hold him."

Yan Xinyuan nodded briefly and went to face Bai Youzhe. While Li Hua prepared his magic circle and made an attack from another direction.

Gu Yuena suddenly appeared, causing the magic targeted towards Bai Youzhe to miss instantly and destroy one part of the mountain range. Gu Yuena disappeared and kept her distance from Li Hua before finally creating some phoenix flame attacks.

Bai Youzhe who was blocked by Yang Xinyuan became extremely annoyed. It unleashed a soul force that formed an enormous magic wave. It pushed Yang Xinyuan by as much as several meters, giving Bai Youzhe the opportunity to return to target Li Hua.

By the time his position with Li Hua reached ten meters, the soul force he absorbed was instantly unleashed and destroyed as fast as lightning.

Li Hua did not escape due to Gu Yuena's detention. When the explosion occurred, Gu Yuena used space and time magic to teleport in time.

The explosion in the sky resulted in a huge shock. Remnants of soul force fell down like meteors, smashing the ground and creating powerful explosions.

Due to this, the guardian's combined defense was compromised. They almost lost their shields.

The sky was filled with fog due to the explosion that had just occurred. However, it still did not make Bai Youzhe calm down.

He just narrowed his eyes.

As the fog spread and slowly disappeared, his sight improved and he could see everything behind the explosion.

His face grew colder when he saw it. Actually, the one who was hit by the explosion was not Li Hua, but Yang Xinyuan!

I don't know what trick Li Hua used. The woman disappeared somewhere, whereas Yang Xinyuan was still shaken over the soul force that pierced through her body. Gu Yuena herself was stunned.

"How can you?" Gu Yuena was tensed. He could sense Yang Xinyuan's vitality was on the verge of collapse.

The explosion of soul power had an unimaginable effect and could destroy one's soul. It should have killed Li Hua.

However, how did Yang Xinyuan replace him?

Yang Xinyuan smiled wryly, then looked towards Gu Yuena in the distance. Gu Yuena still looked tensed and did not move in the slightest.

Then, Yang Xinyuan's gaze was directed at Bai Youzhe. He narrowed his eyes and tilted his head, "Looks like you're not satisfied."

Bai Youzhe did not look surprised. He actually grew colder and immediately shot towards the weakened Yang Xinyuan. At that moment, Yang Xinyuan was instantly in his grasp.

"Where is he?" Bai Youzhe could not sense Li Hua's presence.

Yang Xinyuan snorted. He did not even feel any pain or the like when Bai Youzhe clasped his neck tightly. His soul slowly faded and his breathing grew weaker. Face pale. However, his gaze looked bright and fine.

Yang Xinyuan laughed. His laughter was amused as he looked towards Bai Youzhe. He raised his hand, clutching Bai Youzhe's arm before Bai Youzhe could end his life.

"I'm going to die, but I'm not going to die alone." Yang Xinyuan laughed crazily. In the next instant, a dark mist enveloped his entire body. His grip grew tighter, while Bai Youzhe began to feel her hands numb without being able to break Yang Xinyuan's neck.

What kind of power is this?

The dark mist surrounded the two of them and gave off a very strong weakening effect. Bai Youzhe forcibly withdrew her hand and caused Yang Xinyuan to barely fall down there.

The black fog was getting bigger and bigger. Even Gu Yuena was no longer able to sense their presence and started to panic.

Yang Xinyuan's smile faded away. He closed his eyes, then muttered, "Li Hua, this is my pay for you."

"Good." Li Hua smiled evilly in the darkness. He emerged from within the black fog, darting at high speed towards Bai Youzhe.

When the green sihur on his staff touched the black fog that surrounded Bai Youzhe, the green magic spread out and ensnared the two figures.

Gu Yuena was unable to find anyone's whereabouts and felt uneasy herself. He flew randomly and at high speed, trying to find something.

He cursed his lost vision several times while searching frantically. He simply did not feel the presence of others, as if all around him was just empty space!

Until finally, a bright green light flashed from his eyes. Gu Yuena immediately turned to the other side, then was shocked when she realized something.

It looks dark. However, he was able to see green magic and two weak souls among the darkness.

He recognized all three.

But this time, the green beam shot out with a powerful murderous aura and a huge pressure. The green magic was clearly not simple, followed by the dark mist that surrounded Bai Youzhe and Yang Xinyuan.

Gu Yuena hurriedly flew in that direction. That green magic ... was the soul-destroyer that Li Hua had once used to kill Bai Youzhe's father. The only ultimate weapon that can kill instantly, yet takes time and strength to use.

Gu Yuena did not know what it was, but she felt an overwhelming feeling of fear when she saw it.

"No ...."

Li Hua smiled obliquely when he realized that Gu Yuena was approaching. He used his hand to hold Gu Yuena back, then darted swiftly towards Bai Youzhe.

Bai Youzhe could clearly feel an overwhelming force targeting her, but she could not use its power due to the black fog that completely held her back. This must be Yang Xinyuan!

Therefore, Bai Youzhe could only use the last defense of the dragon blood. The dragon's blood can give him a pretty strong protection, by draining all the power he has.

When Li Hua's green magic was about to land on Bai Youzhe's body, a dark blue light appeared overlaying Bai Youzhe's body and clashing with Li Hua's attack.

The collision caused a much larger explosion. Gu Yuena stopped the flight, holding off the explosion that occurred. He was shocked when he saw the figure of a man hovering at him freely, making Gu Yuena spontaneously catch him.

"That Xinyuan?" Gu Yuena was too shocked. He did not know that Yang Xinyuan was smiling at him a little. His mouth was already spitting out a lot of blood, while his face was extremely pale.

Without taking his eyes off the dazed Gu Yuena, his figure turned to shreds and disappeared into the wind.

"...." - ".Gu Yuena did not know what to react to.

What ... is he dead?

There was a strange feeling that pressed down on Gu Yuena's heart. He was in a daze for a long time, feeling distrustful of what had just happened.

Until he finally felt a faint familiar breath, Gu Yuena immediately regained her senses.

Bai Youzhe fell very fast and was still too far away from Gu Yuena. Gu Yuena sped up her speed, frantically searching for Bai Youzhe's figure by following the weak breath she felt.

He could not see it at all, even if it was just a beam of light emanating from the soul as usual ....

Gu Yuena was very frightened. His entire gaze was dark and he was free-falling at high speed, trying to grab Bai Youzhe.

When she felt that she had touched something, Gu Yuena immediately carried her into her arms. Its wings were wide open, but the magic from the explosion never stopped falling and hit its wings unexpectedly. Gu Yuena groaned painfully, but did not stop her from landing safely with Bai Youzhe.

Gu Yuena was depressed. His feet were squeezing for a moment. She was filled with fear when hugging the cold body that was usually very warm. Gu Yuena's mind could not think properly and tried at all costs to resuscitate Bai Youzhe.

"Youzhe .. You hear me? Don't scare me ...." Gu Yuena's voice became hoarse. He hugged Bai Youzhe, patting her on the cheek trying to resuscitate her.

He used the power of the phoenix blood to energize Bai Youzhe. He remembered, it was powerful to heal Bai Youzhe's wounds the other day while being Xiao Lin.

The wound is very bad. There's a lot of blood. Gu Yuena did not care about anyone's blood, even until her hands were covered in blood.

Unfortunately, the power of the phoenix blood was not potent to treat the internal injuries. It only provides a slight improvement to the external wound.

That's not enough!

"Tell ...." Gu Yuena insisted on using phoenix blood to heal Bai Youzhe, and assured her that Bai Youzhe was fine.

This was his first time seeing Bai Youzhe's situation as bad as this. He was confused and scared. He no longer cared about the condition of his surroundings that were filled with the corpses of war. He only looked at Bai Youzhe in his arms and continued to give the phoenix blood strength to wake her up.

Lingering in fear and uncertainty, Gu Yuena became extremely chaotic. He felt like he had returned to the border forest of Linghun Palace back then. Filled with guilt and deep sadness.

What's he supposed to do? I don't know where everyone is. His wing was injured and could no longer fly. Where's he supposed to go?

He sat still, not letting go of the cold and pale-bodied Bai Youzhe at all. No one saw him, not even Gu Yuena could ask for help.

Loss of feeling suffered. Gu Yuena became empty for some time in the same position.

I think he hated all these situations. Hated her so much.

Anger and sadness were mixed in his heart. Gu Yuena could not hold back her tears anymore. He clasped his palm holding onto Bai Youzhe's robe.

She let go of her crying after a long time of restraining.

Li Hua appeared not far from Gu Yuena. A smile spread across his lips, looking very satisfied. Yang Xinyuan actually gave her everything in the fight, even blocking Bai Youzhe's strength from having a chance to withstand her attacks.

Unfortunately, Yang Xinyuan had to die ....

Li Hua felt that it was a pity. Kill one, but lose one. This time, he must not let go of Gu Yuena and sacrifice anything else to kill her.

His greatest help is no longer there. Li Hua had to finish it quickly.

He lifted his wand. A green light emerged from the staff and was directed at Gu Yuena who was still filled with chaos.

Immediately, Gu Yuena was aware of the danger around her. Li Hua was nearby, about to kill him. Gu Yuena did not move from her place despite knowing that the woman would kill her quickly. He has other plans.

Li Hua took everything from him. Gu Yuena would not let the woman pursue her goal and would destroy her! He doesn't care about anything else anymore.

"Wait for me," muttered Gu Yuena.

Li Hua immediately launched an attack to kill quickly. However, Gu Yuena's pair of wings opened, protecting her body from the attack and making the green magic crumble.

Gu Yuena spewed out a mouthful of blood. The wings really could not be used anymore and simply disappeared. However, it's not something to worry about.

Gu Yuena placed Bai Youzhe on the ground. He suppressed all the power in his body until red magic swirled around him and formed three magic circles at the same time.

Li Hua turned pale. He swung his staff once more to attack, but his movements were less fast than Gu Yuena who fused the three magic circles together and carried them to the sky.

When Li Hua's magic attacked, it was too late for him to kill Gu Yuena. The transparent shield blocked his attack and gave him a counterattack in the form of a crashing phoenix.

At this moment, the sacrifice of the three magic circles was re-activated. The sky turned red and was completely covered in red mist. The storm came crashing down, filled with wind and lightning from the sky.

There would be no one who could stop Gu Yuena.

"I should have done this a long time ago." Gu Yuena laughed.

If he didn't do this, I don't know how many Li Hua would have destroyed. He had already lost a lot of things, and had absolutely no desire to continue living.

Bai Youzhe should not have died. But he would not be able to stop Gu Yuena like before, even if he knew about it though.

That celestial phenomenon that looked like blood really frightened everyone, materials including the people who were in the refugee camp. It was as if the apocalypse was about to happen, and destruction was in sight.

No matter how much Li Hua stopped Gu Yuena, he could not break through the shield created from phoenix blood.

Li Hua was furious. He finally brought out Rakshasa's Soul back to stop Gu Yuena. Only by severing Gu Yuena's magic and wounding her could the magic circle sacrifice be made.

When Rakshasa's Soul appeared and glided ferociously, it was too late for him to stop Gu Yuena.

This was not the first attempt at sacrifice. If previously Gu Yuena had not been swayed by the strange atmosphere around her and Bai Youzhe's arrival, now she was only focused on uniting the three magic circles and destroying them to create a great destruction.

As soon as Rakshasa's Soul was about to hit the shield, a magic circle was fully formed in the air in large measure. That was when, the magic circle spread out and created a deep red beam that shattered everything within its scope.

People could not hear the sound of explosions. There was only a painful hum and everything became blood red. Rakshasa's soul returns to Li Hua and protects him from the shock of a magic circle that can destroy souls.

Even the guardian's combined shield was unable to hold it and shattered into pieces. Everyone was shocked and felt the air around distorted and caused many people to have a disturbance in his soul.

At the same time, Vale appeared and installed a large shield using a magic circle. Gu Yuena had taught him and told him to protect people if any magic circles were destroyed.

It was then, that the entire empire was covered in Vale's protective magic circle that prevented the deadly effect of the magic circle's sacrifice from attacking their souls. The mage and healer immediately supported his still weak power, thus successfully covering the entire imperial territory.

The natural situation is chaotic. Various mountains suffered collapses and large earthquakes occurred. The fragments of the magic circle were still in the air, falling down from a height and hitting the ground with a huge explosion.

The Linghun Palace army was directly affected. Explosions are everywhere and there have been many casualties. Those who had previously had prowess and killing intent, were now like flying and frightened birds. They ran away without avoiding the explosion.

However, even though they were able to avoid the explosion, they were unable to avoid the effects of the destruction of the magic circle that could destroy their souls. In just a short moment, many people fell into a pool of blood and a horrifying look.

Ever since destroying the three magic circles, Gu Yuena's gaze was already blank. His mouth had traces of blood flow and he fell to the ground in a dying state.

His entire organs were severed and gradually lost their function. Just like his eyes ....

From the sky, Li Hua fell down and vomited blood. He supported his body that was shaking on the ground. The scene was directed at Gu Yuena who was lying dying.

A smile appeared on his lips, looking crazy. "You lost ...." He laughed amusedly. The longer it gets ticklish like it has gone crazy. Although he lost so much, his life was not at all threatened!

Even though he lost the Soul of Rakshasa due to the explosion, he still did not die! He's winner!

"Gu Yuena, that is the result of your final decision. Even if you sacrifice yourself, you still can't kill me!"

Li Hua went crazy!
