Chapter 386: She Must Not Be Touched

Hearing the God-King's words, Ying Xiaoxiao slightly bit her lip, gazing intently at Li Hao. Numerous thoughts surged in her mind, and finally, she slowly shook her head and said:

"Perhaps he is just passing by."

"..."

The God-King fell silent. These words were like a resounding slap to his face, making him feel a hint of self-deprecation and coldness.

He actually has such foolish bloodline; it is truly laughable.

With the evidence conclusive, the other party still so foolishly favors him. As the God-King, he seems to have no authority at all.

"Since that's the case, if he dares to step onto the battlefield, I want you to kill him with your own hands!"

The God-King said each word without emotion.

Ying Xiaoxiao's face changed, becoming somewhat pale. But after exchanging a glance with Li Hao in the distance, she took a deep breath, and her gaze became firm. "I will do my best to fight for the Divine Clan!"

Hearing this, the God-King was too lazy to waste any more words with her. He loudly addressed the Origin Ancestor on the opposite side of the Void Abyss: "Same old tricks again? So many years, and not a single new idea? Still want to borrow the hands of the Heavens?!"

This voice reverberated in the void, surpassing the speed of sound, it was a power of law, shaking the tens of millions of elite troops of the Divine Clan, and also shaking the minds of the many Saints of the Demon-Slaying Assembly.

The faces of the Saints at the grand assembly all changed. The God-King's voice law penetrated their protective Great Daos, shaking their skulls, it was a kind of deterrence.

Even millions of miles apart, the opponent's law power has such an effect. If they were to engage in battle, I'm afraid they could unleash terrifying attacks in an instant.

"Demon Ancestor, back then I considered your difficult cultivation and spared your life. You are ungrateful and today you want to repeat your mistakes. This time, take your clan's sinful blood and sleep eternally in this Void Abyss."

The Origin Ancestor said indifferently.

His voice was gentle like a spring breeze, dissipating the God-King's majestic and domineering deterrent power. Then it roared towards the Divine Clan army, transforming from a spring breeze into a torrential downpour, like a thunderstorm containing thunder.

From under the God-King's helmet, two ice-cold beams of light like lightning shot out, tearing apart the Origin Ancestor's power, considered a mutual test.

"Origin Ancestor, there's no need to be angry. Although I am no match for this Demon Ancestor, if any of the Demon Clan dare to cross the line, I will be the first to eliminate them!"

The black-robed Saint who spoke earlier said.

Li Hao also learned his name, an extremely old Saint, named Dark Saint.

The other party had half a foot into the Supreme Saint realm, and had long ago earned the title of "Invincible Below Supreme Saint."

Like the Star Saint from before, both had once been glorious for hundreds of years, invincible when Supreme Saints did not appear. Later, they successively went into seclusion to comprehend the path of Supreme Sainthood.

However, this step was separated by countless years, yet they have never been able to cross it. But without a doubt, their strength in all aspects is even more terrifying than before.

"Indeed, I would like to meet that vile dragon." Beside him, the Star Saint also said with interest.

"If it's about dealing with that vile dragon, I can help."

At this time, the short and stout man who had not spoken all along also said with a smile.

He had a ruddy complexion. While speaking, he was still constantly summoning dishes, and he had the most empty plates on the table.

Li Hao gazed at the Divine Clan army, without speaking.

The Origin Ancestor glanced at Li Hao and said with a faint smile: "If that Demon Ancestor makes a move against you, I will naturally make him pay the price."

Other Saints also knew that if that Demon Ancestor made a move against others and revealed an opening, he would surely be struck by the Origin Ancestor's thunderous blow.

"Why hasn't Heavenly Venerable Hao spoken?"

"Dark Saint and Star Saint have both been invincible below Supreme Saint. He has offended two at once, truly young and reckless."

"If we talk about aptitude, he does have this confidence, but in terms of actual combat power right now, his foundation is ultimately still a bit shallow."

Many Saints' eyes flickered, those who were acquainted transmitted their voices to each other.

At this moment, at the Void Abyss, the God-King stood tall and unmoved, while within the Divine Clan, figures soared into the air one after another. Among them, besides the Divine Clan's own Saints, there were also Saints from other sacred lands who had submitted.

Among them was also the previous Clan Leader, Ying Qing Shuang.

However, now that the God-King has returned and the Divine Clan is rising, the position and authority of the Clan Leader naturally also fell upon the God-King. She then returned to her former role, transformed into the Divine Clan's sword, clearing obstacles for the family.

"Form the formation, Supreme Imperial Azure Array!"

Ying Qing Shuang's expression was solemn, she shouted in a low voice.

In an instant, the Divine Clan army moved into action, transforming from a golden ocean into golden lotuses blooming in the void, forming a great array.

Within the formation, as if a great wind arose, Supreme power gathered and surged from everyone into the center of the array. From there, figures of Divine Clan Half-Saints emerged. Under the blessing of the array power, their aura surged, their bodies were crimson gold, like golden crows slowly rising in the void.

"The ancient Supreme Imperial Azure Array, indeed lives up to its name. Half-Saints can even possess power comparable to Saints."

The Dark Saint coldly watched all of this and said.

After he finished speaking, he took a step forward, and in an instant, appeared in the void outside the grand assembly.

The might on his body, in an instant swept across heaven and earth. Darkness surged from his body like a tide, seeming to obscure the sky.

With just one person's body, he seemed capable of withstanding millions of mighty troops.

Seeing the Dark Saint's might, many Saints all had solemn expressions, and in their eyes revealed apprehension and amazement.

"Such might, I'm afraid it is already no less than a Supreme Saint."

"He probably hasn't become a Supreme Saint, otherwise there's no need to hide it."

"I say, is there a possibility that although Dark Saint is not a Supreme Saint now, he is already able to exchange a move or two with a Supreme Saint?"

Hearing these words, many people's hearts stirred. Not a Supreme Saint, yet able to exchange a move or two with a Supreme Saint? That's simply even rarer than a Supreme Saint!

"That Heavenly Venerable Hao shouldn't have been so arrogant just now." Someone looked at Li Hao, inwardly gloating.

At this moment, in front of the Divine Clan army, Ying Qing Shuang's expression was solemn. She knew Dark Saint's reputation, and naturally also knew Dark Saint's countless astonishing deeds in the past. This is definitely a terrifying figure to be regarded as a Supreme Saint.

"Assist me, Dao Extremity Divine Reversal!"

Ying Qing Shuang said sternly.

Six Divine Clan Saints suddenly stepped forward, gathering around her. Then, divine light surged from their entire bodies, enveloping Ying Qing Shuang.

Before long, Ying Qing Shuang's figure reappeared, but her armor was like burning with golden flames. The aura of her entire body surged to a terrifying degree, and suddenly, she rapidly charged towards that Dark Saint.

Dark Saint slightly frowned. Pitch-black power dyed the area tens of thousands of miles around him black, even light could not escape. He proactively met Ying Qing Shuang, unleashing extreme-realm power.

Divine Power, Heavenly Earth Vein…Void Return Teleportation!

In Dark Saint's hand, a pitch-black sword appeared at some point, the sword blade was wreathed in terrifying black waves, filled with the power of destruction.

Li Hao watched, slightly narrowing his eyes, but quickly calmed down again.

Just now, at first glance, he thought it was Sword Dao, but it turned out to be Saint Dao, just wielded using a sword.

Boom!! Explosive sounds came from the void. Ying Qing Shuang's golden light was actually enveloped by that Dark Saint's black domain, but the circular black domain now violently fluctuated with the explosive sounds.

In an instant, as the explosive sounds disappeared, the black domain seemed to be torn apart. A ball of golden flames flew out, like a proud and noble firebird. After soaring into the sky, it suddenly swooped down.

Along its path, the void was shattered, and golden burning cracks appeared.

Dark Saint was slightly stunned, seeming not to have expected the opponent to actually survive.

Looking at the might on Ying Qing Shuang's body, his expression became solemn, his eyes turned pitch black. Besides the extreme realm, a huge black star vaguely appeared above his head.

That black star's outline could even be distinguished in his black domain, it was the ultimate darkness of law.

With the appearance of this black star, terrifying might surged forth. Dark Saint suddenly raised his hand, the weapon in his palm hummed, and waves of calamity power like smoke diffused and rose.

This is a Dao Calamity Emperor Weapon!

Li Hao's expression, however, was as if he were in a daze. When he came back to his senses, his eyes lit up involuntarily.

That black star, he could see, was actually a method similar to the Veins of Heavenly Stars, that was also a "Vein"!

However, rather than calling it a vein, it's more like the other party pre-stored and sealed some power, and then used it as an extended vein.

The idea is right, but the choice is wrong.

However, this wrong choice, on the contrary, provided Li Hao with a bit of an idea.

"That calamity power, it is even deeper than merit and fame…"

Li Hao glanced at that sword. It's at least a Three-Calamity Emperor Weapon, quite formidable.

As the power from the black star above his head continuously poured in, terrifying might erupted from Dark Saint's body, like a dark Emperor.

Boom! In an instant's clash, Great Dao forces ravaged, the entire area around the Void Abyss was shaking.

That golden light, suddenly split in two, bursting apart.

"Grandmother!!"

Ying Xiaoxiao saw this scene, her pupils contracted, and she hastily flew up, rushing over.

At the same time, the Dragon God beneath the God-King's feet, revealed a tyrannical and cruel murderous intent in its eyes, and let out a low roar.

The God-King's body soared into the air, his cloak fluttering in the wind, and the Dragon God rose into the sky from behind him.

He was not standing on his mount's back, which was tacitly permitting it to join the battle.

"That vile dragon has come out. Let me meet it and see how this brother of Dragon Saint is!"

Star Saint slightly curved his lips upwards. Dragon Saint and Dragon God are of the same bloodline, both cultivated into Supreme Saints. During the last time they eliminated the God-King, Dragon God was also severely injured. According to the information he received, it hasn't recovered yet, making it the perfect target for practice right now.

Beside him, the short and stout man also stood up with a chuckle, his eyes faintly glowing, "I wonder what Supreme Saint dragon meat tastes like?"

Li Hao heard this and glanced at him. The other party noticed Li Hao's gaze, smiled at him, appearing easygoing.

Star Saint then glanced at Li Hao, and gave a slight cold laugh. He knew Li Hao was strong, but his foundation was shallow, and not daring to go into battle could be considered somewhat sensible.

As the Dragon God rushed into the battlefield, Star Saint and Food Saint also rapidly arrived, tearing through the void.

The Dragon God saw Ying Xiaoxiao going to rescue Ying Qing Shuang. It itself roared towards Dark Saint, attacking to defend.

"Ganging up with numbers, truly the ways of the Demon Clan." Star Saint said indifferently, but he took the lead in attacking Ying Qing Shuang, wanting to first eliminate this Divine Clan general, to reduce their numbers.

Food Saint then directly turned around and rushed towards the Dragon God, assisting Dark Saint.

"Little girl, let's use your head to warm up first."

Star Saint looked at Ying Xiaoxiao rushing over, his expression indifferent, not taking her seriously. He raised his hand, intending to annihilate her, the gap between them was too great.

But when he made his move, his attention was actually on the God-King. Seeing his imposing and unwavering figure, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

Just at this moment, suddenly a inexplicable chill locked onto him.

It seemed as if a cold blade was pressed against his neck, ready to sever it at any moment.

Star Saint was slightly stunned, his face suddenly changed. He looked towards the God-King, but saw that the other party was not emitting any killing intent. The feeling was coming from behind him.

"You?"

Star Saint suddenly turned his head, but saw that Li Hao had already left his seat, stepped into this void battlefield, and was rushing towards this side.

At the same time, Ying Xiaoxiao, rushing towards Star Saint, also saw Li Hao's figure. When she saw him step onto the battlefield, his entire body gradually radiating might, her anxious expression became even paler.

Two lines of clear tears flowed from her cheeks. She slightly gritted her teeth, her eyes revealing killing intent, and charged towards Star Saint even faster.

But Star Saint suddenly dodged, turned around, and coldly stared at Li Hao.

"Could it be that you intend to fight me here?"

Star Saint's eyes were ice-cold.

If Li Hao nodded, he would instead burst into laughter, which would mean that the Origin Ancestor would never let Li Hao go unless the Divine Clan won this battle.

"Except for her, the rest is up to you."

Li Hao was too lazy to say more to the other party. Ying Xiaoxiao was taking such a risk, he had no choice but to save her.

"Hm?"

As these words came out, not only was Star Saint stunned, but Ying Xiaoxiao, who was just about to continue rushing to first save her grandmother, also felt her body jolt, and abruptly turned her head, looking towards Li Hao.

When he saw Li Hao's continuously rising aura, Star Saint knew Li Hao was serious, and Ying Xiaoxiao was the same.

She was stunned, then she broke into a smile through her tears, wiping them away, and quickly rushed towards her grandmother's side.

"Grandmother."

Seeing her grandmother, covered in blood, in the shattered golden light, the sorrow that Ying Xiaoxiao had just suppressed, suddenly surged forth.

"In my stead, protect the clan…"

Ying Qing Shuang tightly grasped Ying Xiaoxiao's hand. Before she could finish speaking, her body was devoured from within by a terrifying power of destruction. Her body rapidly annihilated, and this power of destruction, like flames, spread towards Ying Xiaoxiao's body.

Ying Xiaoxiao blankly watched. Since childhood, her parents died early, and her grandmother raised her single-handedly. But now, she was vanishing into smoke right before her eyes.

Clang! A sharp sound like a sword's cry. That power of destruction was severed by sword qi, seemingly isolating the void as well, dividing it into two realms.

"Don't be dazed."

A gentle and calm voice sounded in her ear. Ying Xiaoxiao, who had just lost her senses, came back to herself, recognizing Li Hao's voice.

She turned her head to look, but saw that Li Hao was still standing on the other side of the battlefield, confronting Star Saint.

Her heart couldn't help but tighten, and she immediately sobered up. At this moment, Li Hao had acted for her sake, how could she still justify herself to the Origin Ancestor's side?

Not to mention the future, just the Star Saint before her eyes was an extremely terrifying ancient Saint, second only to a Supreme Saint.

"Run, quickly!"

Ying Xiaoxiao hastily transmitted her voice, at the same time, she turned her head to look at the God-King, and transmitted her voice to that God-King: "God-King, save him! He has not joined the Origin Ancestor!"

The God-King's expression was cold and indifferent. Li Hao's intervention only made him slightly raise an eyebrow, but he wasn't too surprised.

At this moment, hearing Ying Xiaoxiao's telepathic message, he couldn't help but feel a trace of annoyance.

"Perhaps it's the Origin Ancestor instructing him to approach me like this? Now he only has one path, which is to personally speak to me, and offer a pledge of allegiance!"

The God-King coldly transmitted his voice back in reply.

Ying Xiaoxiao slightly opened her mouth, somewhat stunned and blank. Immediately afterward, her face turned pale.

She naturally didn't believe that Li Hao was intentionally using this as a pretext to approach, but from the God-King's attitude, she could see that Li Hao's current situation was extremely dangerous.
