Rebirth: City Sovereign

For a moment, Lyle thought he'd misheard.    

Slowly opening his mouth, Lear's pupils became unsteady, as he confirmed in a daze towards the Bishop.    

"Are you saying that Ya Fu was killed and then turned into a Corpse Mud Undead?"    

And when the Bishop who was being held by him finished speaking, her eyes immediately turned red and she started bawling.    

"Wu, wu!"    

The Bishop whimpered as she weakly kneeled on the ground.    

"According to Mother Saint's request, we'll stop them early in the morning and think of ways to stop those foreign clan leaders, but there's really too many of them!"    

"There's no other way. We can only follow them to the Zhanluo Flower Tower and then we'll see."    

"What did you see?"    

"Mother Saint's corpse."    

"Pata."    

After releasing the Bishop's hand, Lear's body collapsed powerlessly onto a flower pillar. His eyes glazed over and he was unable to say a single word.    

"Ya Fu, this, how could this be!"    

Lear could never have imagined that the Matriarch who came to Lanya Star with him would not only die easily, but also become a Corpse Mud Undead.    

"Cang!"    

The Immortal Slaying Sword sliced open the bodies of hundreds of Corpse Mud Undead s. Ye Kai tapped on the ground with his feet and quickly arrived beside Lear as he asked.    

"Hey, what's going on?"    

"It's over." Lear smiled, his face deathly pale, and only said the two simple words.    

"Ya Fu died, killed by Han Yi's bastards."    

"Don't give up, there's still a chance." The Red Crystal Longsword also appeared on his left hand, and Ye Kai slashed out streaks of sword light as he replied.    

Lir shook his head, ignoring those Corpse Mud Undead that were closing in on him nonstop and gave up on resisting.    

"You still don't understand, Human King."    

"With Ya Fu's death, it also means that the Defensive Formation s and purifying Magic Formation that were used on the Lanya Star for a hundred years to fight against the Twelve Saints are all wasted."    

"The Lanya Star is finished."    

Lear's words slowly resounded. Not only him, even the Flower Man Clan Cultivator beside him all lowered their heads and gritted their teeth. Their brows furrowed as they revealed extremely painful expressions.    

But at this time, a somewhat puzzled voice came out of the Bishop's mouth.    

"Um, Defensive Formation, does it mean the 'Flower of Planet' system?"    

Lear nodded and smiled wryly.    

"That's right, that was the blood and sweat of Ya Fu's life, used to deal with Han Yi's ultimate defense and purification of the Magic Formation."    

In Lear's mind, all resistance was futile. But following after, the words of the Bishop caused Lear and Ye Kai's eyes to light up.    

"If this is the secret of the 'Flower of Planet' system, besides the Mother Saint, there is someone else who knows about it."    

In a flash, Lear sprung up from the ground, rushed to the front of the Bishop and asked straightforwardly.    

"Who?"    

"Uh, the child of the Mother Saint, Ya Si." The Bishop was obviously shocked by Lear's actions and revealed a panicked expression, but she still answered Lear's question.    

"Where is she?"    

"Being locked in the Zhanluo Flower Tower, just with our strength, we can't save her!"    

"Whoosh!"    

Just as she said the four words "Zhanluo Flower Tower", two white beams of light suddenly rose from the ground and flew towards the highest point of the Sparkling Garden!    

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!"    

He noticed that the black vines that were infected by the corpse Qi had risen up from the ground and were flying towards Ye Kai and Lear.    

"Don't get in the way!"    

Lear's eyes flashed with red light, and two silver guns with spirit stones embedded in them appeared in his hands. Both of his hands pulled the trigger at the same time, and a dozen of Machinery Saint made explosive bullets jumped out of the gun, exploding on the vines.    

"Rumble!"    

Borrowing the recoil from the explosion, the two of them used their speed to break through the flower pattern between the flower towers and the hall at the speed of a Sound Barrier and arrived at the highest point of the Sparkling Garden.    

"Pata."    

As the white cloth shoes stepped on the ground, in a few seconds, the two of them had already arrived in front of the Zhanluo Flower Tower's large door. Even though they were separated by a door, the disgusting thick corpse aura still kept coming out from the gap between the door and door.    

Just as Ye Kai raised his hand and touched the door, Lear stopped him.    

"Let me do it."    

Lear closed his eyes and spoke slowly as he placed his hand on the green door.    

"Ya Fu, I swear that I will definitely avenge you and protect your Lanya Star."    

"So, you can rest in peace."    

After saying that, determination surfaced in Lear's eyes, and he directly pushed open the Zhanluo Flower Tower door.    

"Roar!"    

Instantly, a terrifyingly thick corpse aura and a shrill sound that would make people go crazy exploded from the tower!    

A few hundred thorns that were filled with black thorns immediately obscured the sight of Ye Kai and Lear, but the two of them were not afraid in the slightest. Sword aura and gunshots interweaved, and in the midst of the sounds, the two of them turned into Light Shuttle s that charged into the innumerable thorns!    

In the Zhanluo Flower Tower, the originally beautiful green plants had long since disappeared. On the contrary, streams of corpse that climbed up those plants, directly turned into strange black creatures, and filled the entire inner space of the Zhanluo Flower Tower.    

Although they had never interacted in battle before, the two of them had a special tacit understanding right now. Ye Kai's Red Crystal Longsword and his Immortal Slaying Sword relied on their tyrannical destructive power to cut open thick vines and spikes to open up a path for the two of them. On the other hand, Machinery Saint used his two silver pistols to continuously blast away the weak spots where the vines and vegetation were connected.    

"Rumble."    

Even though the vines and thorns had almost formed a wall that was impervious to the wind, under the powerful attacks of Ye Kai and Lear, it was still being broken through at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.    

Lear grinned as he switched the magazine, probably because he had lost interest in the fight for a long time.    

"Not bad, Human King!" Are you interested in partnering up with me in the future!? "    

"Not interested." Ye Kai replied as he stood on top of the vines he had chopped into pieces on the ground. He leapt high into the air from the side, reaching the ceiling of the Zhanluo Flower Tower.    

On top of the Red Crystal Longsword, streams of pitch-black flames burned. The Divine Light flashed in Ye Kai's eyes as the three great Soul Level activated at the same time, intersecting and sending two sword attacks towards the vines that were constantly erupting!    

Boom!    

The purple lightning and the black flames interweaved and formed a dark purple pillar of light that pierced through all of the vines.    

"Human King, look over there!"    

Machinery Saint Lear's face changed. He looked towards the deepest part of the Zhanluo Flower Tower and shouted.    

At the limit of his sight, in a black snake-like vine, a pitch black ghost that looked like a fallen angel was sitting on a high platform made of vines.    

It was the Corpse Mud Undead that the deceased Mother Saint Ya Fu had become!    

Aaah!    

Obviously, Ya Fu had noticed the two of them as well. She immediately raised her hands and thousands of black vines shot out from the Magic Formation behind him at the same time, flying towards Ye Kai and Lear!    

Sword light and sword flashes exploded at the same time, causing thousands of vines to shatter instantly. But even so, the sage who had transformed into the Corpse Mud Undead did not seem to have any intention of giving up, and instead let out a loud howl, causing the black vines that were a few times more than before to appear again!    

Ye Kai and Lear maintained their fighting stance, and just as they were about to break through the vine wall, an ice-cold voice slowly sounded from within their Zhanluo Flower Tower.    

"It's useless."    

"Corpse Mud Undead's strength is linked to the previous body and he became the sage of Corpse Mud Undead. Under my control, the corpse aura in her body became endless."    

"You guys are no match for him."    

After hearing that voice, Lyle was stunned for a moment before his expression darkened.    

"Bastard, sure enough, it was you who killed Ya Fu."    

"Ila!"    

While Lear was speaking, a man with fiery red hair who was wearing a silver black uniform slowly appeared behind Ya Fu, who had already turned into a Corpse Mud Undead.    

It was the Ghost Saint of the Twelve Saints, Ila.    

Opening his mouth, Ila's face was gloomy, he looked towards Machinery Saint and Ye Kai and asked.    

"Give up, Lear."    

"If you don't even have the Machinery Saint's name, what can you do now?"    

"Bam!"    

As soon as he finished speaking, the silver bullet had already shot past his face and exploded on the wall behind him.    

With the smoke coming out from the muzzle of his gun, Lear pointed at Ghost Saint and said coldly.    

"At least, I can make a bastard like you accompany Ya Fu in death."
