Chapter 242 Chasing Troops
The plain golden sword light cut through the space, and the blue robe of the West Sea leader was stained with blood. The wound deep enough to see the bone kept flowing with the devil's blood falling into the sea.
Covering the wound on his chest with his palm, the leader of the West Sea looked at the long sword in No. 2 Ye Li's hand that had disappeared with a shocked expression, and said with blood in his mouth:
"Ahem, I didn't expect you to have this kind of power. Is it because of that set of armor?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
No. 2 Ye Li fiddled with his numb hands and said in a neutral tone:
"Besides, you have been blatantly delaying time since the beginning of the battle, and even used the domain space."
Facing No. 2 Ye Li, whose aura was as weak as his own and who could not exert his full strength, but was slightly better than himself, the West Sea leader only had a slight pity in his eyes, and then raised a smile and said:
"Heh~, you are right to say that, but I have delayed long enough. It is too late for you to catch up now. Even if you are faster, the interception halfway will definitely take longer than the time it takes for you and me to fight."
Upon hearing this, No. 2 Ye Li couldn't help but laugh out loud. A hint of mockery in his golden eyes made the expression of the West Sea leader, who was looking directly into the other's eyes, change. An answer that he had already thought of but didn't want to admit took root in his heart and then thrived.
"Do you think I'm the only clone of the original body? To tell you the truth, I'm only ranked in the top two in combat power among all the clones. The strongest clone has already caught up with me."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
The leader of the West Sea was annoyed. He had worked so hard to delay for so long, and in the end you told me that the clone that fought with me was not the strongest, but only ranked in the top two. Isn’t this a joke!
The leader of Xihai would never admit this fact, even if he already had the answer in his heart.
Looking at the West Sea leader in front of him who seemed very excited and was shaking his hands regardless of the pain, No. 2 Ye Li clearly understood that the other party was broken by his words, causing him to make that subconscious action.
Nowadays, the army led by the leader of the West Sea has been killed to pieces by the Liyue immortals who wanted to steal his military merits. The battlefield has been cleaned out. It is obvious that he has become a lone commander who has not fully exerted his combat power and has been seriously injured.
The leader of the West Sea had also noticed this a long time ago. While he was saying it was impossible, the water under his feet was forming a whirlpool in an undetectable form beneath the calm sea surface.
No. 2 Ye Li, who had already seen through it all through his mental power, did not stop the other party from leaving. The reason was actually very simple. His own strength had reached its limit and the strength he could exert was limited.
Even with the energy talisman to restore him to his full strength, No. 2 Ye Li knew that there was still a gap between him and the top demon god, and that the leader of the West Sea definitely had more than one escape route. It would be difficult for him to calculate everything in a short period of time and block the opponent's retreat.
At this moment, Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun, who had already rushed over, protected No. 2 Ye Li. He looked at the leader of the West Sea with a vigilant look, whose aura was a little chaotic and whose expression had returned to calm. He whispered to No. 2 Ye Li:
"You retreat first, leave this to me."
"No, he's gone."
At the moment when Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun was speaking, his eyes suddenly became dazed. The leader of the West Sea, who had a huge wound on his chest and blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, disappeared instantly.
As the voice fell behind No. 2 Ye Li, the sea water left behind where the leader of the West Sea disappeared began to beat in the opposite direction, colliding with the sea water that hit the front.
"He just left?"
Puzzlement and doubt flashed in Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun's eyes. He looked behind him at No. 2 Ye Li who wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He immediately grabbed No. 2 Ye Li's hand nervously and said:
"When did he get injured? Is it serious? If something really goes wrong, how am I going to explain it to Ganyu and Guizhong?"
"Sister Ping, this minor injury is nothing. I can just take some pills. My current condition is just caused by excessive consumption. Don't worry."
No. 2 Ye Li looked at the panicked expression of Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun, who had previously looked extremely serious like a general on the battlefield, with a bit of a laugh and tears, and couldn't help but explain.
Subconsciously pulling out his hand that was grabbed by Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun, No. 2 Ye Li skillfully took the pill from the token and took it. His originally weak breath recovered a little, and his pale face returned to a rosy state.
Seeing No. 2 Ye Li pulling his hand away without any concern, Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun didn't think much about it. After all, this child had often walked on the street holding hands with him and Ganyu when he was a child.
Reaching out to pat the dust off his robe, No. 2 Ye Li glanced in the direction of the West Sea, then turned and said to Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun:
"Sister Ping, the battle here is over. I will go into the sea and chase him. After all, it is not easy for No. 4 to deal with the Dream Demon alone."
"But what about your injuries? You just experienced a fierce battle. It would be dangerous to fight again!"
Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun wanted to reach out and grab No. 2 Ye Li to stop someone from doing anything dangerous. After all, if something dangerous really happened, it would be difficult for her to go back and explain.
No. 2 Ye Li easily dodged the clutches of Ge Chen Lang Shi Zhenjun, lightly lifted his foot into the air, instantly creating a sonic boom, and rushed into the sea at an extremely fast speed. The sound waves and strong winds caused by them made Ge Chen Lang Shi Zhenjun sigh helplessly, and he silently withdrew his hand and turned back to Liyue to do the aftermath.
……
Deep under the sea, the Dream Demon, who was only separated from the Rock Abyss by a wall, finally ran into trouble.
No. 4 Ye Li held the Tang sword in his hand as if he was in an empty space. He killed a floor-level demon with one sword, a lower-level demon with two swords, and a middle-level demon with ten swords. His combat power reached that of a top-level demon after he went in and out of the demon group seven times, and he maintained it for more than an hour.
At this moment, the three top demon gods walking in front of the wall were protecting the Dream Demon God. They looked at No. 4 Ye Li who was coming like a demon king with a firm gaze and said:
"Dream Demon, your plan is only one step away. We will use the domain space to delay for a longer time. You can use the past of the remaining upper demons to enhance their strength. As long as we have enough top combat power, the position of the Seven Rulings will be nothing but a pipe dream."
"Hurry, Dream Demon, break through that wall. There is hope inside!"
Seeing the stupid demons who were going all out for their own plans regardless of the cost of their own domain space being shattered, the Dream Demon was very moved and shed tears on the surface, but in his heart he sneered and said,
"Stupid, with your intelligence, you can become a top demon god. I'm afraid it's the blessing you earned by saving the entire Teyvat in your previous life. What a pity, you met me."
The Dream Demon sneered in his heart, but on the surface he was moved as he broke through the wall and led the remaining dozens of upper-level demons into the Layered Rock Abyss. Then he rushed to the location where the monsters were previously released for investigation.
