Chapter 270 Reunion
Chapter 270 Reunion
Although the words were plain, they were like a thunderbolt to them.
A demon lord is comparable to a great Confucian scholar of the human race, and Su Bansheng only knew the news for two days before he went to the demon realm and killed three demon lords. This strength can be described as terrifying.
Chen Changfeng's throat bobbed, and then he smiled wryly:
"Still the Half-Saint."
Chen Tianjian sighed, and what he said left many people stunned for a moment:
"The Half-Saint killed three Demon Lords, it seems I'll have to kill six Demon Emperors..."
At this moment, a powerful energy suddenly erupted from the Black Tiger Demon Saint's body, causing many people's expressions to change.
"No way, this Black Tiger Demon Saint actually wants to revive?"
Grand Secretary Su's face darkened, and he quickly turned his head and shouted sternly:
"Everyone, let's go!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was completely bewildered, but since it was Grand Scholar Su who had spoken, they naturally had to obey their master's orders and quickly retreated.
“Let’s go too. There’s a backlash power within the Black Tiger Demon Saint, but it should be fine. With these people here, the Black Tiger Demon Saint won’t be able to cause any trouble.”
Xiao Bai jumped onto Su Tongyao's shoulder and said.
"I don't want to leave... Since you are dead, I should not live on alone... Xiaobai, you go first. In the future, just offer some incense and paper money for us."
Su Tongyao smiled sadly, simply looking at the Black Tiger Demon Saint with a resolute expression.
"you……"
Xiao Bai panicked for a moment, but then sighed:
"Ye Ru broke into the Demon Palace to save us that day. Logically speaking, he owes us his life. Since we're going to die, let's die together."
The energy of his talent spread outwards, causing Grand Scholar Su and the others to retreat dozens of steps, their eyes fixed on the Black Tiger Demon Saint, ready to strike at any moment.
At this moment, the surging energy caused the ground to crack open again, creating countless fissures like a spider web.
boom!
With a muffled thud, to everyone's astonishment, a ball of light suddenly shot out from the Black Tiger Demon Saint's body, eventually spreading outwards like flower petals.
"what is that?"
Staring at the light, the people around fell silent, dumbfounded.
"It looks like a human figure, with silver wings. Could it be the soul that the Black Tiger Demon Saint is hiding inside his body?"
Chen Tianjian looked at the wings that were faintly visible within the ball of light and quickly said.
"No, it looks like a person, it looks like Ye Ru!"
Su Wenmo's eyes gleamed as he murmured, his words startling everyone once again. Shocked gazes immediately turned towards the sky.
"Student Ye Ru greets all the gentlemen!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire room erupted in uproar, and the students who had retreated were all shocked.
"Ye Ru? Ye, the head of the society!"
Xue Hanshu's gloomy face turned to the sky, and a surge of wild joy appeared on his face. His voice became extremely excited.
"Is it true... Ye Ru is still alive?"
Zhang Guo also cried out in a terrified voice.
"It really is Ye Ru, he's not dead!"
Chen Tianjian laughed heartily, a hint of relief in his voice.
Countless people looked up at the sky as if on a pilgrimage, and the ball of light slowly dissipated, finally revealing a human figure.
The figure was dressed in a scholar's robe, and his face seemed even more handsome than it had been three days ago. He fluttered his wings slightly, hovered in the air, and cupped his hands in greeting to everyone.
"I'm sorry to have surprised you gentlemen by coming all of this."
Upon seeing that Grand Scholar Su and the others were all here, Ye Ru was taken aback at first, then bowed and smiled.
"You really scared us. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't have believed that you could have escaped after falling into the tiger's den. This is something that our human race has never heard of before."
Li Baiyuan stroked his beard and laughed heartily.
Ye Ru shifted his gaze slightly to the left, spotting a charming and lovely woman, and his expression softened.
"Nu Yao, I'm not dead. I'm sorry to have worried you."
At this moment, Su Tongyao froze completely in the distance. She covered her red lips with her small hand, and her eyes, which were like autumn water, were also slightly moist.
"Are you...Young Master Ye Ru...?"
Suddenly, Su Tongyao said in a trembling voice, "He is really still alive!"
"I am... I'm sorry for making you worry for so long."
Ye Ru's eyes were also a little moist. Finally, he suddenly swooped down and picked up Su Tongyao in front of everyone. They flew in the air for a long time.
“I really am Ye Ru, I really am Ye Ru.”
Everyone watched this scene without making a sound to disturb the two's reunion. Whether soldiers or scholars, what they could not bear most was the pain of separation by death.
After spinning her around a few times, Ye Ru put Su Tongyao down, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said softly:
"Don't cry. How could I go back on my promise? We agreed that there would only be death, not separation in life."
"I almost thought you were really dead..."
Su Tongyao sobbed in Ye Ru's arms, while Xiao Bai watched the two of them intently from the side.
"Okay, it's alright, it's alright."
While comforting them, Ye Ru smiled at Su Wenmo and the others, which made the other students secretly admire him. Perhaps in the whole world, only Ye Ru dared to be so romantic in front of people of the level of a half-saint and a literary prime minister.
"It is destined to be blessed by heaven, the emperor decreed..."
As the two were enjoying their reunion, a sharp voice shattered the warmth of the moment, and soon a delegation of more than a dozen people arrived.
"By the mandate of Heaven, by imperial decree... You are the chief of the Ye family..."
When the man saw the man in black, he was momentarily stunned, and even the imperial edict he was about to read stopped in his throat.
"Yes, His Majesty has given his orders..."
Ye Ru blinked, then said.
"This……"
The eunuch seemed to want to say something but hesitated. The imperial edict was originally for the execution of Ye Ru, but now Ye Ru was still alive.
“Eunuch Wang, this matter is a long story. Please, Your Majesty, withdraw this imperial edict. Ye Ru is not dead, so there is no need for posthumous conferment of titles…”
Seemingly sensing the awkward atmosphere, Chen Tianjian gave Wen Xiang a wink, and the latter quickly stepped forward and spoke.
"You lot are always causing His Majesty trouble. Now that Chief Ye is alright, this old servant will return to the capital to report."
The eunuch Wang used his delicate fingers to wrap the imperial edict again before hurriedly leaving. This scene made Su Tongyao burst out laughing.
"Alright, since Ye Ru is unharmed, that's for the best. I need to take this Black Tiger Demon Saint back to the National Saint Academy as soon as possible. I'm afraid we won't have a chance to catch up today."
After Eunuch Wang left, Su Wenmo said in a deep voice.
"Alright, please do as you please, Half-Saint."
Grand Scholar Su nodded respectfully.
Immediately, Su Wenmo collected the corpse, stepped on it, and left, leaving only Wen Xiang, Wu Xiang, and the others behind.
"Ye Ru, now it's your turn to tell us about your experience inside the demon saint's belly, isn't it?"
Wen Xiang said.
