Boom, boom, boom…
Explosions erupted continuously, vast flames appearing and spreading wildly along the corridor.
The glass on the side began to shake, then cracked extensively before shattering with a crash. Immediately after, columns of fire shot out of the building.
The next instant, Li Jiayi leaped out of the building, carrying Yimi on his back. Nine massive tails unfurled behind him, piercing the walls and propelling him upwards towards the rooftop of the Tianxing Building.
"Damn it!" Li Jiayi cursed. "Is your escape diary accurate? Didn't it say we could get away? We've been chased all the way here. If that useless diary of yours is no good, I'm ditching you!"
Yimi retorted, "What good does it do to tell me? That's what the diary said!"
Meanwhile…
"Damn, it's this guy again?"
The moment Bai Ye saw Li Jiayi, he felt stunned. He really ran into this guy everywhere he went!
The next instant, Bai Ye's lips curled into an excited grin.
This bastard had finally been caught by him!
Massive Ghoul wings unfurled behind Bai Ye, and he shot into the sky, heading towards the Dead Star Building.
Li Jiayi was climbing towards the rooftop when he suddenly felt a strong gust of wind from behind. He quickly dodged to the side.
Boom!
A blast of lightning fire struck the wall, shattering it to pieces.
Bai Ye hovered in the air, looking at Li Jiayi. "You don't need to say anything this time. Save it for the King of Hell."
"No, wait!" Li Jiayi quickly said. "Your little brother is still here. Fighting and killing isn't good!"
"Hmm?"
Bai Ye paused, then noticed Yimi clinging to Li Jiayi's back.
"Well, well, I didn't expect you, with your righteous appearance, to have betrayed me too."
Li Jiayi pleaded, "Can we talk later? There's a big problem right now!"
Bai Ye scoffed, "You always use that excuse!"
As Bai Ye finished speaking, black void rifts suddenly appeared in the sky around them, and figures began to emerge from these rifts.
The figures wore white robes adorned with gem decorations. Beneath their hoods, a mist obscured their faces, and they possessed metallic white wings and golden halos above their heads.
Bai Ye blinked in surprise. "What's going on?"
"Angels!" Li Jiayi exclaimed. "Things Lilith created."
Bai Ye asked, "Lilith is here too?"
Li Jiayi cursed, "I told you we'd talk later. Your little brother is here too. If you don't believe me, you should believe him!"
Yimi nodded. "I've caused some trouble!"
Bai Ye glanced at Li Jiayi, then said to Yimi, "You two head to the rooftop first. I'll handle this!"
Li Jiayi didn't waste any words. Having Bai Ye cover their retreat was more than welcome. His nine tails immediately began to move again, climbing the outer wall of the Tianxing Building.
However, the surrounding angels clearly had no intention of letting Li Jiayi leave so easily.
An angel pointed a finger in Li Jiayi's direction, and a golden beam of light appeared at its fingertip, shooting towards Li Jiayi.
But, at that very moment…
Zzzzt!
A bolt of electricity suddenly streaked across the air. Bai Ye appeared in front of the golden beam, swinging his Thunder Fang Fury Beast with a powerful sweep.
With a single sword stroke, the golden beam was deflected by Bai Ye, striking the side wall and blasting a chunk out of it.
"Didn't I tell you!" Bai Ye declared. "You're my problem, so don't wander off."
As Bai Ye spoke, currents of electricity surged around him. He then spread his arms wide, sending the electricity surging in all directions.
The surrounding angels flew away, swiftly dodging the lightning attacks.
Some managed to evade, while others were directly struck by the lightning. After being pierced through, their bodies dissolved into wisps of white smoke.
The next instant, Bai Ye's figure flickered, vanishing like lightning.
He reappeared behind an angel.
Seeing this, the surrounding angels immediately pointed their fingers at Bai Ye.
Several golden beams of light streaked towards him, but Bai Ye vanished again. In that instant, the beams struck the angel in front of Bai Ye, blasting it into dust.
Nine Imperial Thunder God Sword Formation (Thunder and lightning transform into a formation, amplifying all lightning-based attacks by 100% within its coverage, and absorbing lightning to continuously recover stamina and injuries. This formation affects both allies and enemies.)
Bai Ye reappeared, pointing a finger into the air. A vast array of formation patterns emerged, and within the circular coverage, bolts of lightning continuously rained down.
The lightning enveloped a large area, leaving the angels nowhere to escape. They were quickly struck and shattered.
Having dealt with the angels, Bai Ye's figure flashed, and he shot into the sky, quickly reaching the rooftop.
"Yo? Quite lively?"
Bai Ye took a look and found that a fight was also happening on the rooftop.
One side was naturally Li Jiayi, and the other was…
Bai Lu, Xia Zhifeng, and Margaret!
Bai Lu was a given. Xia Zhifeng and Margaret were both powerful fighters who had died during the Summit War, and Xia Zhifeng was someone Bai Ye had personally killed.
So, it was the Divine Disciples again?
Bai Ye looked at Li Jiayi. "What's the situation?"
Li Jiayi replied, "Can't you see the obvious situation? The Divine Disciples are out causing trouble again."
Bai Ye asked, "Where's Lilith?"
Li Jiayi explained, "The boss is leading the team this time."
Bai Ye pressed, "Where is she?"
Li Jiayi elaborated, "She probably can't get in for now. She's a true god, and even a clone is half a god. She can't just barge into another god's territory without permission. The Seat of Gods wouldn't allow it. However, it's likely only a matter of time, as even if it's not allowed, it can't be stopped."
"So, it's just cannon fodder for now?" Bai Ye looked at Li Jiayi. "You can't even handle this?"
Li Jiayi extended a hand forward. "You do it. Please, put on a show!"
Bai Ye shrugged. "If you say so, I will!"
Bai Ye reached out his hand, and a vast screen of light appeared behind him.
The Gate of Babylon!
Within the golden screen, countless golden ripples appeared, and weapons unfurled behind Bai Ye, an endless, dense multitude of them.
"Hiss!" Li Jiayi gasped, suddenly realizing something. He shouted, "Hey, hey, hey, we're still here!"
But the moment Li Jiayi spoke, the weapons in the air rained down.
Boom, boom, boom!
As weapon after weapon descended, the terrifying roaring sound echoed incessantly, momentarily shaking the heavens.
