Sage of Humanity

Chapter 2263 - 2261: Pushing Through Till the End

A year ago, Dark Butterfly captured a human named Lu Ye and learned about a type of Dao Runes called "As-Close-As-Siblings" from him. Unfortunately, until today, the Insect and Blood Races haven't figured out much.

But somehow, Lu Ye escaped the insect hive and went on to kill many Dao Fusion cultivators of the Insect and Blood Races.

Especially in recent months, he's been active on various battlefields, with a mysterious presence, causing significant losses to us.

Because of this, Dark Butterfly faced a lot of accountability. After all, the person escaped from her place, and as an Insect Matriarch who mainly cultivates Psyche Force, failing to control even a human was inexcusable.

The day Li Qi captured Lu Ye, this talking member of the Blood Race accompanied Li Qi, naturally recognizing his identity immediately.

"Oh? He is Lu Ye?" Che Lin scrutinized Lu Ye, frowning. "Insect Matriarch Dark Butterfly, just a mere human, is this your idea of something good?"

"Yes!"

"May I hear the details?"

Che Lin spoke solemnly, and the other puzzled Dao Fusions were equally confused, unable to understand why capturing a single human was significant enough for the Insect Matriarch to gather everyone, even if this human had killed many of their Dao Fusions before. Now that he's captured, he can just be killed.

"This person… knows how to leave Banlan!" Dark Butterfly slowly spoke.

A single sentence stirred a thousand waves. Among the Dao Fusions present, all were taken aback, some even couldn't help but utter low exclamations.

Che Lin turned abruptly, his eyes blazing as he looked towards Lu Ye.

A hint of red light pierced his vision, and then that red light explosively spread!

"Blood Sea Technique?" Che Lin was shocked, puzzled how a human like Lu Ye could use such a Blood Technique, especially since he should have been under Dark Butterfly's restriction, right?

Before he could react, an indescribable and terrifying pressure descended from the sky, almost solidifying his blood Qi.

Saintliness!

Such intense saintliness!

Che Lin instinctively sensed something was wrong, just as he was about to activate his Dao force, his psyche suddenly fluctuated, his mind becoming chaotic.

The moment the Blood Sea spread, not only did Che Lin sense something awry, the other Dao Fusions also realized something was amiss, each secretly urging their Dao force. However, the other three Blood Races encountered the same treatment as Che Lin, their cultivation strength not matching his, and their saintliness also lesser, suddenly faced with such suppression, they nearly collapsed to the ground.

It was then that the two direct descendant Insect Race members, who were already prepared, made their move.

Dark Butterfly also manifested her soul body, wielding her Daoist Soldier Long Sword and charging at Che Lin.

Lu Ye, on the other hand, targeted the other two Insect Races, drawing his Boulder Mountain Saber, its wheel-like blade reflecting like the moon, aiming a stroke of blade light at the enemy closest to him.

This was an unexpected ambush, happening right in the insect hive, in front of Dark Butterfly, no one anticipated such a turn of events.

Che Lin was cautious enough, he never suspected Dark Butterfly would betray him like this. However, just the call to assemble was a bit unusual, so he remained vigilant after entering the insect hive.

Lu Ye noticed his caution and did not act immediately.

Only when Dark Butterfly spoke her last sentence, and Che Lin let down his guard, did Lu Ye strike with fierce determination, exploiting the element of surprise.

The method to leave Banlan, this news was too bizarre, anyone hearing it couldn't help but be shocked.

Chaotic Dao force fluctuated, accompanied by gasps and screams.

Within a few breaths, the expansive Blood Sea suddenly retracted.

Only four figures remained standing, while the other Dao Fusions all lay in a pool of blood.

Dark Butterfly held her Longsword, her face filled with amazement, "How could this happen..."

She had expected a fierce battle when she ambushed Che Lin. After all, Che Lin's strength was formidable, even in the depths of the insect hive, defeating him wasn't an easy task.

Initially, she hoped Lu Ye and her two direct descendants would resolve the other Dao Fusions and come to assist her, working together to kill Che Lin.

But in reality, she easily succeeded, this Insect Race Dao Fusion, whose strength was almost on par with hers, didn't have a chance to resist in front of her.

When did Che Lin's strength become so weak?

No, it's not that Che Lin became weaker. He had previously battled several times with Zi Ying, although he suffered losses, he always managed to retreat intact. How could such a strength be considered weak?

But Che Lin's recent performance certainly was undeniably feeble.

Not only him, but the other three Blood Race Dao Fusions were also disposed of by her two direct descendants easily.

The remaining two Insect Races also couldn't escape Lu Ye's lethal hands.

Swish swish...

Two white lights suddenly descended from the sky, landing on Lu Ye, who was eagerly collecting trophies, leaving Dark Butterfly and the two direct descendant Insect Races in a daze.

This gain of two Star Abyss Blessings was unheard of.

"Don't just stand there, follow the plan!" Lu Ye quickly gathered the spoils, turning to look at the stunned Dark Butterfly and the two Insect Race Dao Fusions.

The two direct descendants of Dark Butterfly were still standing there foolishly. They had received earlier news, knowing their Insect Matriarch planned to ambush other Dao Fusions in the war zone, and found it hard to believe, but with Dark Butterfly's orders, they could not resist.

They initially thought this battle would definitely be earth-shattering, but who would have thought it would end so easily.

As for what the subsequent plan was, they really didn't know, so they all looked towards Dark Butterfly's soul body.

Dark Butterfly sighed, although somewhat reluctant, but since the first step had been taken, there was no turning back for her.

Immediately, her Mental Consciousness surged, issuing an order to two direct descendants.

Both Insect Race Dao Fusion cultivators looked at Dark Butterfly with disbelief.

"Hurry up!" Dark Butterfly said coldly.

Only then did the two Insect Race obey: "Yes!" They turned and darted outside.

"Come!" Lu Ye beckoned to Dark Butterfly.

Dark Butterfly hesitated: "How about I stay here..."

"Cut the crap!" Lu Ye glared at her.

"Ah!" Dark Butterfly sighed, her figure flashed and she collided into Lu Ye's Divine Sea.

The next moment, the space around Lu Ye began to distort.

Thirty breaths later, at the perimeter of the base where Che Lin was seated, Lu Ye's figure suddenly appeared, he issued a command: "I'll leave this to you!"

Dark Butterfly's soul body appeared again, looking at the many Insect and Blood Races withdrawing into the base because of her order, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, but was quickly replaced by resolve: "Brother Ye can rest assured, Little Butterfly has no way back now, definitely won't disappoint you."

"I hope so!" Lu Ye said lightly, and the space around him distorted once more.

Dark Butterfly darted out from beside him and rushed into the base, and in the next moment, the slaughter began. Her Peak Dao Fusion crashing into such an all-Initiated base was almost like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.

Another thirty breaths later, Lu Ye had already arrived at another base, his figure flickered, Blood Sea spread out, rapidly expanded, enveloping the base.

One incense stick's time, merely one incense stick's time, as the Blood Sea contracted, the entire base fell silent.

Lu Ye stood in place, 9th Dao Treasure Blood Avatars scattered around, collecting Dao Bones.

Treasure Blood Avatars were useless in combat but were suitable for labor.

He hadn't agreed to Dark Butterfly's suggestion to summon each Dao Fusion individually because he feared the longer it took, the greater the chance of a leak.

Ambushing them collectively is undoubtedly more convenient for subsequent control, the deaths of the Dao Fusion cultivators at each base hadn't been leaked yet, while those Initiated had withdrawn defenses under Dark Butterfly's earlier orders, gathered at one place, perfect for slaughter.

A moment later, the 9th Dao Treasure Blood Avatars returned, Lu Ye's gaze already fixed on the next base!

Eight bases in the war zone, each Insect Race direct descendant could handle one base, Dark Butterfly being stronger and faster should handle two.

So, he must deal with four bases.

The plan was progressing smoothly, as Lu Ye teleported time and again, blood flowed in the river at each base.

However, some unexpected events occurred, when Lu Ye finished off the third base and prepared to move to the last, he "saw" that the base was empty, and observed many Insect and Blood Races cultivators fleeing in all directions.

Lu Ye knew that the message had leaked.

Those fleeing Insect and Blood Races might not know exactly what had changed, but sensed something was wrong, hence hastily left the base.

Although not achieving full success, Lu Ye was not displeased, as the situation was within his expectations.

Not wasting time chasing those fleeing enemies, which would be inefficient, Lu Ye instead looked towards Huang Quan's battle planet.

After a deep search, his gaze quickly settled on a short-statured, gray-haired old man.

Almost the moment his gaze fell on the figure, the originally seated old man suddenly opened his eyes, his lightning-like gaze scanned around, his white brows furrowed, and he slowly spoke: "Which Fellow Daoist has arrived, please show yourself."

Such strong perception!

Lu Ye marvels silently, indeed, those who can sit at a war zone as a Peak Dao Fusion are not to be trifled with.

"Greetings Fellow Daoist Huang Quan!" Lu Ye's voice sounded in the old man's ear.

He hadn't met Huang Quan, but at one glance could recognize he was the Chief Governor of the war zone.

Huang Quan's brows furrowed deeper, having sensed Lu Ye watching but unable to find Lu Ye's whereabouts.

This was quite strange.

Even more surprising was that Lu Ye's voice sounded very young.

When did Branlan arise such a figure?

"What's your name?" Huang Quan asked gravely, although he sensed no hostility, the feeling of being secretly watched was unsettling.

"Lu Ye."

"Lu Ye?" Huang Quan's brow raised, "You are that Lu Ye?"

"If no one else has this name, I should be."

"And what does the young friend seek from this old one?"

"Fellow Daoist might want to investigate the bases of the Insect and Blood Races more closely, there may be an unexpected surprise."

"An unexpected surprise? What kind of surprise?" Huang Quan asked, but received no response, and the feeling of being watched disappeared as well.
