2216 Forced Into a Corner Arriving before the Earth Ranking stele, Xie Yun looked at Princess Scarlet Rainbow who was sitting in a lotus position not far away after leaving his name on it. “I’ve defeated you before. In the elimination round of the Nine Heavens, you beat me once. Seems like we can only compete in the ranking battle.” “Oo, Oo!” Princess Scarlet Rainbow’s eyes widened and she could not speak, only whimpering. “Mmm?” Xie Yun frowned slightly and walked forward slowly when he saw the strange expression on Princess Scarlet Rainbow’s face. Just as he was about to ask, Tie Han at the side suddenly opened his eyes and said indifferently, “Your Highness Xie Yun, Princess Scarlet Rainbow is fine. Please don’t interfere in this matter.” “Just watch the show from the sidelines, Your Highness,” Qing Chenzi of Flying Immortal Sect smiled as well. Xie Yun’s gaze swept past the two of them and landed on Immortal Tai Hua who was not far away, vaguely guessing something. Xie Yun pondered for a moment before retreating to the side to wait and see. “Oo, Oo…” Princess Scarlet Rainbow let out continuous sounds. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺 Xie Yun shook his head slightly with an apologetic expression. As long as Princess Scarlet Rainbow was fine, he did not care about the lives of others. In fact, some people might even become his opponents for the Earth Ranking. Even if they were suppressed and killed, he would not interfere. The eighth was from Mountain Sea Immortal Sect, Prince Yun Lei. A thousand years ago, Prince Yun Lei took part in the Immortal Sect Selection at the same time as Princess Scarlet Rainbow. However, he joined Mountain Sea Immortal Sect. After Prince Yun Lei left his name on the stele, he heard Princess Scarlet Rainbow’s whimper and sensed something unusual. His gaze swept past Immortal Tai Hua, Tie Han and Qing Chenzi and his heart skipped a beat. Although their locations seemed casual, they were extremely particular. Any cultivator that arrived before the Earth Ranking stele could fall into their encirclement! Yun Ting’s heart skipped a beat as he deduced the rough truth and retreated to the other side to watch. Ninth, Prince Yun Tao of the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom. Tenth, Ye Fei of Heaven and Earth Academy! When Ye Fei reached Level 5, the elders of the academy became nervous. Ye Fei was the number one of the outer sect competition and the academy had high hopes for him! Everyone outside the Nine Heavens knew what was about to happen. However, Ye Fei did not know that a gigantic trap awaited him ahead! As long as he arrived at the Earth Ranking stele, Tie Han and the others would attack and not give him a chance to leave his name on the stele! This was also the brilliance of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and Flying Immortal Sect. With the involvement of Immortal Tai Hua and Tie Han, the two of them could join forces as long as they arrived at the stele first. The combination of the two of them was enough to suppress anyone caught off guard! Furthermore, as time passed by, more and more cultivators from the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and Flying Immortal Sect arrived. As for the cultivators of Heaven and Earth Academy, every time someone arrived at the stele, they would be suppressed and sealed until Su Zimo appeared… Nine Heavens. Wild winds howled and gravel filled the air. For some reason, there was a murderous aura in this space. In the sand, Ye Fei advanced continuously and finally caught sight of the Earth Ranking stele that was a hundred feet tall in the sand! There were also some cultivators scattered around the Earth Ranking stele, resting with their eyes closed. Among them was a woman. From afar, she looked like Princess Scarlet Rainbow from her clothes and figure. Due to the yellow sand blocking his vision, his spirit consciousness could not extend too far and Ye Fei could not see everything clearly. Princess Scarlet Rainbow’s eyes widened as she watched Ye Fei approach. However, she could not speak and could only use her full strength to whimper. However, her mouth was sealed by Immortal Tai Hua and even the whimpering sound was extremely soft. Unless one was close, they would not be able to hear it. Ye Fei strode forward quickly and gradually approached the stele of the Earth Ranking, gradually making out the few people around him. Feng Yin, Tai Hua, Tie Han… That woman was indeed Princess Scarlet Rainbow! “Junior Sister Scarlet Rainbow, to think that you’re even faster than me,” Ye Fei said loudly with a smile and continued advancing towards the Earth Ranking stele. Princess Scarlet Rainbow could hear Ye Fei’s voice, but she could not hear him. The more that was the case, the more anxious she became. Ye Fei took a few more steps forward and suddenly stopped! Narrowing his gaze slightly, he looked at the few cultivators around the Earth Ranking stele with a bewildered expression. The fact that Princess Scarlet Rainbow did not reply alarmed him. He swept his gaze across the locations of Immortal Tai Hua, Tie Han and Qing Chenzi and noticed something unusual! “Something isn’t right!” ... Ye Fei frowned with a grim expression. “As expected of the number one of Heaven and Earth Academy’s outer sect. Your alertness has already surpassed others.” Suddenly, Qing Chenzi of Flying Immortal Sect opened his eyes and chuckled. At the same time, Tie Han moved and charged towards Ye Fei at an extremely fast speed! Qing Chenzi lunged towards Ye Fei as well. Initially, the two of them wanted to wait for Ye Fei to get closer before attacking. To think that Ye Fei would notice something unusual beforehand! Ye Fei’s reaction was extremely fast as well and he retreated the moment Qing Chenzi spoke! Be it Tie Han or Qing Chenzi, they were both above him in the rankings. If it was a one-on-one fight, he had a chance of winning. However, he had no chance of winning if the two of them joined forces! ... Furthermore, there was Immortal Tai Hua over there! Ye Fei was extremely decisive and made a decision in a flash. He had no intention of fighting Tie Han and Qing Chenzi. He wanted to leave this place right away and gather his fellow sect mates from the academy before making further plans! Otherwise, if disciples of the academy arrived one after another, they would not be able to defend against the many cultivators of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and Flying Immortal Sect. In such a short period of time, all of Ye Fei’s countermeasures were already the best solution. However, Tie Han and Qing Chenzi were way too strong. Neither of them would let him leave so easily! “Up!” Tie Han channeled his Essence Spirit and hollered softly. A gigantic ice wall appeared out of thin air behind Ye Fei and blocked his path forward. He could not let any disciples of the academy off in case anything changed! Tie Han did not hold back either and released a greater divine power right away! Ye Fei condensed a sword with his fingers and channeled his Essence Spirit. With a soft shout, he stabbed towards the ice wall behind him! Boom! A resplendent sword beam burst forth from his finger sword, piercing a hole in the ice wall. However, with that slight delay, Qing Chenzi’s attack had already descended. Ye Fei was helpless and could only defend once more. Qing Chenzi chuckled and did not fight Ye Fei head-on. He merely condensed his qi into threads with both hands and held the latter back. On the other side, Tie Han arrived and slashed down at Ye Fei’s head with his palm like a saber! A chilling intent enveloped him and Ye Fei shuddered. His blood qi circulated slowly and was almost frozen into ice! It was so strong! Ye Fei was alarmed. He condensed his finger sword and stabbed in reverse, colliding with Tie Han’s palm saber. Crack! Crack! Crack! Instantly, a layer of frost covered Ye Fei’s finger sword. Frost spread along his arm continuously. On the other side, the ten thin black threads condensed by Qing Chenzi’s fingers coiled around Ye Fei’s body and bound his limbs! The combination of two top-tier experts forced Ye Fei into a corner in a few rounds!
