Chapter 347 Escape
The fact that Lu Lu's soul had attached itself to Ye Ru's body caused everyone's expressions to turn extremely horrified.
"How could you still be alive? You're not Lu You; he was clearly dead back then."
In the instant the light faded, the demonic scorpion also witnessed Ye Ru's transformation. When it saw the figure behind Ye Ru, it was filled with disbelief, and a storm of emotions churned within its mind.
"You cunning scorpion, you're all talk and no action. If I had only suppressed you back then because you were trying to do good, you've disappointed me greatly. So this time, I absolutely cannot let you get away."
Ye Ru gazed at the ferocious scorpion, his voice slowly emanating from his mouth, as if a saint had descended from heaven, giving people an extremely majestic feeling.
"Hmph, Lu You, you might as well have killed me. That would have saved me a lot of suffering, but you made me suffer so much. Is that considered doing me a favor?"
With a chilling killing intent in his eyes, the demon scorpion said fiercely to Ye Ru that if it weren't for the other party, he might have become a saint by now. However, after being sealed for so many years, his talent had gradually deteriorated, and he had no way to use his skills.
"Stubborn to the end, it's both lamentable and regrettable."
Ye Ru shook his head, feeling a pang of regret for the things he had done back then, and slowly said:
"Since that's the case, then I'll seal you away today, rather than letting you go out and annihilate my human race."
"Hmph, you're nothing but a remnant soul. What right do you have to boast in front of me that you'll destroy me? Do you really think you're still Lu You, one of the Seventy-Two Sages?"
The scorpion's words were filled with resentment. It then opened its blood-red maw, gathering demonic power within, and its cold voice resounded throughout the world:
"Today, I'll show you just how big the gap is between you and me now."
As soon as he finished speaking, the demon scorpion roared angrily, and then a beam of light containing destruction shot towards Ye Ru once again.
This scene caused many scholars to change their expressions. If this beam of light were to touch this place, the people here would probably be buried with it.
"Everyone retreat quickly, use all defenses."
Guan Hai snapped out of his shock and immediately spoke sternly.
"You don't need to move."
Looking at the beam of light that was traversing space and rapidly approaching him, Ye Ru said calmly. Then he stretched out a finger and pointed it in the air. A beam of light that was almost identical to the beam shot out from his fingertip and finally collided with it.
"go."
As the soft voice fell, the beam of light collided with it precisely. Immediately, the two beams of light were frozen and then disappeared into the void at the same time, leaving not a trace of spatial fluctuation.
"You can't beat me with these moves."
Ye Ru smiled slightly, looked at the sinister scorpion, and said calmly.
"Hmph! I refuse to believe you're still stronger than me!"
Seeing this, the demon scorpion was filled with endless rage. Then he suddenly felt that the energy around him was starting to become chaotic, and the demonic power in his body was also disappearing little by little.
"The disorder in this space seems to be related to the demonic power within this scorpion."
Sensing this energy fluctuation, Han Fengxian pondered for a moment before speaking softly.
"I felt it too, but I don't know if it was because of the power of that half-saint that the demon saint was able to force him to be powerless. And this is just a soul. If the real seventy-two sages all exist, just how terrifying are their talents?"
Guan Hai nodded, his gaze fixed on Ye Ru in the distance, and said in a deep voice.
If the Seventy-Two Sages were still alive, the demon and monster races probably wouldn't have been so rampant.
"You actually neutralized my demonic power, damn it!"
Sensing his demonic power slowly draining away, the scorpion's expression turned extremely ugly.
If all of my demonic power were to disappear, I'm afraid I would definitely not be able to escape from their grasp today.
Even we ourselves might die here.
He was utterly fed up with this life of being sealed away.
"The Shadow of the Demonic Scorpion!"
Suddenly, the demon scorpion let out a loud shout, and then behind him, a demon scorpion phantom quickly transformed. This phantom was like a living thing, with scarlet eyes looking at the scholars, its eyes filled with hatred as if it wanted to tear them all to pieces.
"Roar!"
The scorpion let out a shrill scream, and in an instant, invisible sound waves swept across the land.
The powerful sound wave struck one of the unprotected scholars, causing his body to explode violently. He then vanished from the world with a shrill scream.
"This guy's serious!"
Upon sensing the sonic wave that could shatter a person in an instant, Guan Hai's expression changed drastically, and the other scholars also froze at the sight.
They were unsure whether the sound waves could penetrate their own talent shield, so they naturally dared not underestimate their opponent.
Once this demonic scorpion truly unleashes its power, none of them would be a match for this half-saint.
"You guys should leave first, otherwise, given this jerk's temper and personality, you definitely won't be able to hold him off."
At this moment, Ye Ru turned around and easily shattered the sound wave, then said in a deep voice to Guan Hai and the others.
The next moment, an extremely deep black passage appeared before them. This black passage carried a strange spatial fluctuation, as if it could captivate the soul.
"Thank you, Great Sage Route!"
Upon hearing this, the scholars were overjoyed. They bowed to Ye Ru and then fled one after another into the passageway.
"Let's go too."
Seeing this, Han Fengxian slowly said to Guan Hai, "This place is far too dangerous. Although you are from Wei, you are still a genius."
He didn't harbor much hatred towards Guan Hai, so naturally he didn't want to see Guan Hai perish here.
"What about Ye Ru? Deserting in the face of battle is not the act of a scholar."
Guan Hai pondered for a moment and said.
"Ye Ru is protected by the Great Sage, so there shouldn't be any major problems. On the contrary, if he were here, it would definitely distract him."
Han Fengxian said in a deep voice that he actually hoped Ye Ru would die here, so that their Jin Kingdom would have one less powerful competitor.
"You guys should go too."
Ye Ru turned his head and said.
"Alright, then be careful, senior."
Taking a deep breath, Guan Hai slowly bowed to it, and as soon as he finished speaking, he too disappeared into the black tunnel.
