Urban Undying Lord-Chapter 1601 - 1620: Calm and Unruffled

"Sir, you can hide in the dark. Wait until I battle the Undying Heavenly Lord, then you can rescue the two." The Lord of Extreme Emotion proposed a compromise.

"Alright."

Ye Xuan nodded slowly, as this was indeed the most prudent approach.

In fact, Ye Xuan hadn’t anticipated that the Undying Heavenly Lord would take Primordial Spirit and Luo Hou hostage to force him into the open.

This seemingly simple tactic was indeed effective against Ye Xuan, since besides Liu Baiyi, Primordial Spirit was one of the few people Ye Xuan truly cared about.

The relationship between Ye Xuan and Primordial Spirit was exceedingly complex; they had been both mentor and rival, entangled throughout the first half of Ye Xuan’s life.

Without Primordial Spirit, there would be no Ye Xuan.

In his youth, Ye Xuan was supposed to die in the Netherworld, but the arrival of Primordial Spirit changed his life. Although Primordial Spirit’s intentions were initially dubious, it’s a fact that without him, there would be no Ye Xuan today.

Therefore, Ye Xuan must save this life mentor of his. He could not possibly allow Primordial Spirit to perish because of him.

...

Undying Heavenly Palace, vast Heavenly Gate.

Divine Fire filled the sky, scorching and terrifying.

The sky was ravaged by the Divine Fire, and Primordial Spirit and Luo Hou were being roasted by the Sun-Moon Divine Fire, their mouths occasionally emitting sounds of pain.

This Sun-Moon Divine Fire was an extreme torture, a penalty used by the Undying Heavenly Palace to punish traitors, capable of obliterating one in endless pain.

However, under the orders of the Undying Heavenly Lord, this Sun-Moon Divine Fire did not take their lives but subjected them to extremely cruel torment.

Since only if the two were alive would Ye Xuan appear, two dead people held no value to the Undying Heavenly Lord.

Rumble!

Nine-Colored Divine Light pierced the heavens and the vault of heaven, the realm of Extreme Emotion spread overwhelmingly, setting the alarm bells ringing in the Undying Heavenly Palace.

"Extreme Emotion, you shouldn’t have come."

Boom!

The next moment, the Undying Heavenly Lord abruptly appeared above the Heavenly Gate, gazing distantly into the heavens and the earth, his eyes extremely indifferent.

"Undying, release the two, or there will be a battle between us."

The Lord of Extreme Emotion gracefully arrived, the ancient supreme power unfurling, causing the heavens and the earth to shake dramatically, clearly demonstrating she was not merely bluffing.

"Extreme Emotion, you are no match for me. I advise you not to meddle."

The Undying Heavenly Lord spoke indifferently, surveying the heaven and earth all around, his voice deep and icy, saying: "Ye Xuan, I know you’re here. If you don’t want the two to die, you’d better come out now."

Boom!

Heaven and earth trembled, the universe was devoid of light, as the Lord of Extreme Emotion waved her jade hand, nine powers of Extreme Emotion roared forth to suppress the Undying Heavenly Lord.

"You are far from being enough."

Facing the strike from the Lord of Extreme Emotion, the Undying Heavenly Lord let out a cold, low roar, the Undying Heavenly Blade appeared in his hand, slashing ten thousand miles of blade light directly at the Lord of Extreme Emotion.

Boom!

The two supreme beings clashed, their devastating power erupting, spreading out to the heavens and the earth, causing extremely destructive damage.

At this moment, Ye Xuan suddenly appeared above the Heavenly Gate, sweeping out the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, intending to rescue Primordial Spirit and Luo Hou.

"Ye Xuan, I’ve waited for you for a long time."

Boom!

Suddenly.

The Undying Heavenly Lord appeared in front of Ye Xuan, his five fingers crashing down towards Ye Xuan, the terrifying Power of Silence Annihilation sealing the heavens and the earth, wanting to suppress Ye Xuan on the spot.

Fortunately, Ye Xuan had anticipated the Undying Heavenly Lord’s difficulty, and had prepared against his schemes. The Heavenly Tribulation Transformation instantly activated, barely dodging the terrifying strike of the Undying Heavenly Lord.

"Your opponent is me."

The Lord of Extreme Emotion flicked her jade fingers, causing chaos in this realm, the terrifying Extreme Emotion Power covering heaven and earth, shooting towards the Undying Heavenly Lord.

"Stop!"

The Undying Heavenly Lord struck back, pushing the Lord of Extreme Emotion back ten thousand miles, appearing directly in front of Primordial Spirit and Luo Hou, immediately taking the two hostage.

Sssh!

The Lord of Extreme Emotion retreated like a shooting star, her peerless face covered in frost, unable to act against the Undying Heavenly Lord due to fear of endangering Primordial Spirit and Luo Hou’s lives.

"Undying, despite being a supreme figure, you do such despicable and shameless deeds, aren’t you afraid of being ridiculed by the world?" The Lord of Extreme Emotion said coldly.

Unfortunately, faced with the Lord of Extreme Emotion’s mocking, the Undying Heavenly Lord remained unmoved, placing his hands atop the two’s Heavenly Spirits, with the terrifying Power of Silence Annihilation faintly seeping out.

"Ye Xuan, the Lord doesn’t want to waste words. If you don’t want these two to die, hand over the Void-breaking Heavenly Cauldron." The Undying Heavenly Lord spoke sinisterly, his voice echoing in the heavens and the earth.

Clearly, the Undying Heavenly Lord’s true aim was to retrieve the Small Cauldron, and furthermore, he wanted to personally rip Ye Xuan to pieces.

However, the Undying Heavenly Lord was also very rational, knowing that Ye Xuan, like him, would never trade his own life.

Indeed.

Buzz!

Ye Xuan emerged from the void, his expression calm as he looked towards the Undying Heavenly Lord, showing no signs of panic.

"You really are ridiculous, old thief, thinking you can use them to threaten me into handing over the Void-breaking Heavenly Cauldron?" Ye Xuan laughed continuously.

"Ye Xuan, the Lord knows your past. This Primordial Spirit is your enlightenment mentor; are you really willing to let him die for you?" the Undying Heavenly Lord said sinisterly.

This was a battle of wills, to see if Ye Xuan cared about the lives of Primordial Spirit and Luo Hou.

The Undying Heavenly Lord kept observing Ye Xuan’s expression, hoping to see a hint of panic.

Unfortunately, the Undying Heavenly Lord was disappointed.

From the moment Ye Xuan appeared here, he had remained extremely calm, without a hint of emotion.

"He who doesn’t care for himself shall face Heavenly Punishment; you may as well kill them both and see. Don’t dream of me handing over the Void-breaking Heavenly Cauldron." Ye Xuan laughed continuously. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Though Ye Xuan spoke this way, showing disdain, inwardly he was extremely tense, fearing that in rage, the Undying Heavenly Lord might kill Primordial Spirit and Luo Hou.

But Ye Xuan was gambling, hoping that the Undying Heavenly Lord wouldn’t kill the two, as they were only minor characters to him, and his true target was Ye Xuan himself.

If Primordial Spirit and Luo Hou were killed, the Undying Heavenly Lord would lose his negotiating leverage, ending up with nothing.

"Do you really think I won’t kill them?"

The Undying Heavenly Lord growled coldly, as the terrifying Power of Silence Annihilation erupted, causing Primordial Spirit and Luo Hou to cry out in pain, their bodies swelling horrifically.

Ye Xuan’s heart trembled, but his face remained calm, knowing he couldn’t show any panic, or the Undying Heavenly Lord would become even more confident.

He was certain that the Undying Heavenly Lord was bluffing, and he had to remain composed.

"Go ahead and kill them if you have the guts, but old thief, I warn you—today’s events are noted by me, and someday we’ll settle the score." Ye Xuan spoke with an indifferent expression.

"You...?"

The Undying Heavenly Lord’s breath hitched; he hadn’t expected Ye Xuan to be so ruthless, not caring for even his enlightenment mentor’s life, placing him in a difficult position.
