Chapter 334 Trying to Stop
Tang Xia’s determined look and her last sentence crippled Ye Yifan’s last tint of perseverance. Eventually, he still lost to Chu Tiankuo completely.
Ye Yifan smiled at Tang Xia helplessly. However, only he knew how bitter this smile was. He turned to the few people who were not far away and said in a low voice, “Since that’s the case, let’s quickly follow up. You want to meet him so badly, it will be wrong for me to continue stopping you.”
Tang Xia could not help but cheered happily. Feeling emotional, she plunged herself at him, grabbed him by the neck and planted a kiss on his forehead. She said excitedly, “Yes! Thank you!” Then, she turned and continued to follow the group without turning back.
Ye Yifan was left alone to let the wind hit him. He had been partners with Tang Xia for so long. He already knew what each of her gaze and action meant. He naturally would not misunderstand.
He slowly lifted his dark gaze. Looking at how she had instantly regained her energy after six months, it felt like he had seen the shining, most popular female streamer of Time-travel Bar from six months before – Tang Xia.
“Perhaps, this is the right thing to do. As long as you can come back.” Ye Yifan’s murmur slowly dissipated in the wind.
Eventually, he still had to follow her out of helplessness. Tang Xia turned back and glanced at Ye Yifan. She then turned back and looked at Mu Chengxuan that bunch of people carefully. She did not know how long she had stalked them. Soon, she identified one of them who always seemed arrogant. His eyes were filled with sternness.
Tang Xia pointed to the person in the middle and turned to ask Ye Yifan who was behind her. She asked in doubt, “Is that person the Mu Chengxuan you mentioned?”
Ye Yifan also looked up into the direction she was pointing. After observing for a while, he nodded. “Yes, that’s him. When I heard that he was coming here, I went to check his recorded broadcasts. He is not an easy man.”
After hearing that, Tang Xia lowered her head and started to think. After a while, this group of people all stopped. Tang Xia was startled and looked towards them in confusion. Mu Chengxuan waved his hand, signaling all of them to stop. He then said to them, “We are reaching Altar soon. Now, let’s discuss our combat plan.”
Then, the group of people gathered around and started discussing over a map. Tang Xia frowned. She turned to look at Ye Yifan in confusion, “What’s their mission?”
Hearing this, Ye Yifan froze and instantly hit his forehead in frustration. “Ah! I forgot to tell you earlier. Their mission is to destroy the Altar. That is the final mission.” Tang Xia’s heart sunk uncontrollably. She was instantly at a loss. She almost let out a loud cry.
“What did you say?” Ye Yifan did not expect her reaction to be so big. He quickly stepped forward and covered her mouth, leaving out Tang Xia’s pair of stunned eyes.
The two quickly hid in a camouflaged place. Ye Yifan popped his head out to make sure they were not discovered. He then sighed in relief and let go of her. “Why are you so agitated? It’s just destroying the Altar, not Chu Tiankuo.”
However, Tang Xia had yet to calm down. She grabbed Ye Yifan’s shirt in horror. “But they are destroying the only remaining memories between Chu Tiankuo and I! I will definitely not allow them to do that!”
Then, she pushed Yifan away and cautiously popped out her head to listen to their conversation carefully. One man suggested, “If the mission is to destroy the Altar, do we have to destroy the things around it too?”
“I don’t think that’s necessary,” another man said.Read More chapter on our vi pnovel. com
However, at that moment, Mu Chengxuan, who had been silent all these while, suddenly opened his mouth. His eagle-like gaze scanned across the group sternly. He then suddenly said in a cold voice, “Just destroy everything, in case it gets in our way.” Then, he turned to look at the not far away Altar with a cold gaze.
When Tang Xia heard it, her whole body froze instantly. She lifted her head in shock and looked at him. “What…what did he just say? He wanted to destroy everything in Altar!”
Although Ye Yifan did not want to admit it, he heard the same thing. “Yes.” However, Tang Xia did not want to rush out as irrationally as she did earlier. On the contrary, she began to calm down slowly.
He felt her trembling body slowly calm down. Then, she lowered her head, as if she was thinking. Ye Yifan could not help but ask, “What’s wrong with you?”
The calmer she was, the more worried he was. She looked at him and said in a low voice, “Since that’s the case, I want to stop them.” Once this sentence was said, Ye Yifan did not know what expression he should use to express what he felt at that moment.
He grabbed her wrist violently and scolded, “Are you crazy? That’s ridiculous! It’s just the Altar, let them destroy if they want! This has nothing to do with Chu Tiankuo, why are you so persistent!”
However, Tang Xia shook his hand away. Her eyes were full of seriousness. “I will not tolerate this group of people destroy anything between me and Chu Tiankuo!”
Ye Yifan’s remaining persistence crippled instantly when he saw her serious gaze. He let go of her hand slowly and sighed helplessly, “Alright then, I’ll go with you.”
Tang Xia could not help but smile gratefully. The group of people seemed to have finished their discussion and was packing up. They slowly advanced towards the not far away Altar together. Tang Xia and Ye Yifan looked at them and quickly followed up.
The group of people sneaked into it. Tang Xia watched as they spread out. They went to steal the wine originally prepared for the sacrifice. One person carried two jars and they were all buried near the Altar.
Then, when everything was ready, the group of people finally left. Now all that was left was to wait for the wizard on stage to light up the fire. As soon as the fire was ignited, everything here would turn into ash in the blink of an eye.
Tang Xia hid in the shadow on one side. She frowned and thought about what she should do. Just then, Ye Yifan slowly stood up from beside her. Tang Xia froze and quickly tried to pull him back. She scolded, “What are you doing! You’ll be easily discovered from that angle!”
However, Ye Yifan did not come back. Instead, he turned to look at Tang Xia beside him and ordered in a low voice, “Just stay here obediently. I’ll take care of the rest.”
Tang Xia froze and did not register what he meant. She looked at his back view in confusion and finally understood, she quickly ran to him to pull him back but was scolded by him. “Quickly go back! Two of us together will be too noticeable!”
Tang Xia had no choice but to retreat. She saw him slowly approaching the pile of wine just buried by the group of people and he tried to move them all away.
However, there was not enough time already. Although she did not know what that wizard was saying, she could see that he had already lit up the fire stick. Although there was still a bunch of people dancing in the surrounding, she could tell that it was almost time.
Seeing Ye Yifan digging the soil bit by bit, Tang Xia’s palms became all sweaty. She suddenly stood up. “No, I can’t owe Ye Yifan a favor anymore!” Besides, if Ye Yifan failed to complete it, he would be destroyed with the Altar.
The wizard had completed the pre-ignition ritual and was about to ignite the fire soon, and Yifan was also frantically busy outside. On the other side, Mu Chengxuan and his group of people were staring nervously. Their mission was about to be completed.
However, at this critical juncture, a sudden shout of to end all of these caused everyone to freeze. Tang Xia suddenly shouted loudly, “Hold on! Stop right there!”Read More chapter on our vi pnovel. com
Ye Yifan stopped breathing for a moment. He looked up in shock. Tang Xia slowly walked towards the wizard and several guards on the side quickly stopped Tang Xia.
Mu Chengxuan’s eagle-like gaze instantly turned to the woman who suddenly appeared on the stage. He then turned to the people behind him and asked, “Isn’t that woman an NPC? Why would a virtual character stop the ritual?”
They obviously did not know what was happening and shook their heads one after another. Mu Chengxuan looked at Tang Xia and said in a deep voice, “It’s better if this woman does not stop it. Otherwise…hmph.”
Even though Tang Xia was stopped by several guards, she did not panic at all. Instead, she said anxiously, “Please do not ignite. Someone has buried wine all around the Altar! If you guys light the fire, everyone will die!”
However, the wizard looked at her as if she was some lunatic. Obviously, he could not understand what she was saying. It was at this moment that Tang Xia finally realized they could not understand what she said. She was at a loss instantly. “Oh my god, what a genius! I forgot about this!”
However, the wizard knew very well that this woman who suddenly appeared was definitely here to stop the ritual. She must be here to cause a scene.
Then, he said something to the guards on the side and the people around him suddenly started cheering. Tang Xia looked at them in confusion and found that their gaze at her looked a little unfriendly.
At this moment, several guards on the side suddenly lifted her up. Tang Xia let out a shriek in shock. Ye Yifan wanted to go and stop them but it was already too late. She was tied to the Altar directly.
“Let me go! You all will be destroyed in just a moment!” Tang Xia struggled with all her strength, but they did not understand what she was saying.
Instead, the wizard raised the stick of fire in his hand and cheered loudly. He probably meant that Tang Xia was a disease and needed to be sacrificed to heaven.
The wizard held onto the torch in his hands and slowly walked towards Tang Xia and lit up the surrounding rice straws around her. Tang Xia could not help but shut her eyes tightly. At this point in time, there was no use struggling.
