Chapter 35: The Unwilling Dai Yutian

The battle on Lima Plain was extremely fierce. The two sides fought from early morning to noon. The battlefield was littered with corpses and rivers of blood, but the melee between the two sides did not end.

Xue Ye dispatched all the forces except the Royal Knights and the Soul Sage, and Dai Yutian was almost the same. Now he was left with only the Tiger Legion of less than 10,000 people and a Soul Sage-level soul master.

The two sides fought on the battlefield, and the soldiers on both sides did not retreat at all.

Di Hong leaped up and spread a pair of flaming red wings behind him in mid-air.

Looking down at the entire battlefield, he always felt that something was wrong, as if something was missing.

Back on the platform, he leaned over to Di Yang's ear and whispered something.

Di Yang frowned slightly after hearing this.

"What's wrong?" Xue Ye asked.

Di Yang clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, my fourth brother said that he always felt something was not right."

"Something's wrong?"

"Elaborate."

Xue Ye looked at Di Hong.

Shaking his head, Di Hong said helplessly: "I can't see what's wrong. The Xingluo Empire has mobilized almost all its forces, but I just feel that Dai Yutian seems to be planning something."

After his reminder, Xue Ye fell into deep thought.

"Something seems to be wrong."

Dai Yutian invested almost all of his troops, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.

After looking around and then at the Soul Saint beside him, he suddenly understood.

"Soul Master!"

"It's a soul master."

Although the central battlefield was in a stalemate, they had the upper hand in the confrontation between the soul masters on the flanks. The soul masters of the Star Luo Empire were inferior to them in number and in soul power level.

But according to the information they had obtained, among the soul masters dispatched by the Xing Luo Empire, there were at least ten soul masters at the Soul Emperor level, but only five were seen on the two wings.

Suddenly, a huge stone fell from the sky and hit the Knights' formation directly. Dozens of royal knights were knocked away at once.

"Protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Suddenly attacked, the Royal Knights reacted immediately.

However, just as they formed their battle formation, a huge carnivorous plant suddenly emerged from the ground and devoured dozens of soldiers.

Di Hong and his companions were shocked. No wonder they felt something was wrong. It turned out that it was directed at them.

Dai Yutian wanted to behead him directly.

Dozens of soul masters from the Xing Luo Empire appeared, including the five Soul Emperors.

"defense!"

The general commanded the knights to form a shield formation, trying to resist the attack of dozens of soul masters.

The soul power levels of these soul masters are mostly around level 30, and there are very few who are above level 40.

"Capture Prince Tiandou!"

The leading Xing Luo soul master pointed at Xue Ye on the high platform and then released his martial spirit and rushed over. The other soul masters also activated their martial spirits and released their soul skills to attack. In just a short while, the Knights' formation was broken.

The Royal Knights suffered countless casualties.

Dai Yutian, who was far away, saw a fierce battle taking place behind the Tiandou army and realized that his plan had succeeded.

The front battlefield is just a cover, his real target is Xue Ye.

It is far better to capture a prince than to defeat these hundreds of thousands of troops. "Very good, the rear of Tiandou is in chaos."

He jumped off the platform and the soldier brought a war horse.

After climbing onto his horse, Dai Yutian waved his sword and pointed forward: "Everyone, follow me and rush straight to where Xue Ye is, and capture Tiandou Crown Prince Xue Ye!"

After saying that, he spurred his horse forward, and the rest of the soldiers followed suit. Even the Soul Sage of the Star Luo Empire followed. The prince personally led the charge, and the morale of the Star Luo Empire soared. For a moment, they even seemed to be suppressing the Heaven Dou Empire.

Facing the attack of dozens of soul masters, the Tiandou Royal Knights were defeated. Although the soul masters of the Royal Knights had already taken over, they had no auxiliary soul masters as all the auxiliary soul masters had been sent to the battlefield.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Di Yang said: "Your Highness, you retreat first."

Xue Ye shook his head: "We can't retreat. If I run away, the morale of the army will collapse."

In the current situation, both sides are fighting for their lives. He absolutely cannot retreat. If he runs away, he will surely lose the battle.

After hesitating for a while, he sent out the Soul Saint beside him. This was the last force he could mobilize. If he sent anyone else, he would have to send Di Hong.

It is a bit outrageous to let a thirteen-year-old child fight.

With the addition of that Soul Saint, the situation improved a lot. After all, he was a Soul Saint of level 76.

The Soul Saint's martial soul was a wild bear, and he was a power-type soul master. After activating his martial soul's true form, he rampaged among the Star Luo soul masters, and soul masters with low soul power levels didn't dare to get close to him.

"Fourth Soul Skill: Regret the Earth!"

The Soul Saint roared, and the purple soul ring on his body lit up, then he stomped his right foot on the ground.

Suddenly the ground shook violently and sharp spikes protruded from the ground. In an instant, several great soul masters of Xing Luo were pierced and died on the spot.

Seeing this, the two Soul Emperors simultaneously released their soul skills to attack him.

Just when Xue Ye thought the situation was stable, an arrow shot towards him.

When the arrow was less than half a meter away from him, it was suddenly wrapped in flames and burned to ashes.

Di Hong stood in front of Xue Ye and looked forward.

"Dai Yutian came in person."

Not far away, Dai Yutian and his soldiers were rushing towards them, and there were no soldiers to stop them along the way.

When they were less than fifty meters away from Xue Ye, Dai Yutian jumped into the air on his horse's back. A tiger roar was heard, and then a layer of white light lit up on his body. Then his muscles began to swell, and four soul rings, two yellow and two purple, lit up around his body. He was a little younger than Xue Ye.

Dai Yutian is only in his twenties now.

After releasing his martial soul, Dai Yutian looked extremely powerful, just like the king of the jungle.

After locking onto Xue Ye on the high platform, he pounced towards her like a tiger descending from a mountain.

"First Soul Skill: Fire Body Protection!"

Di Hong immediately released his first soul skill, and a flame shield wrapped around him. Dai Yutian hit the shield with both palms, and was then blown away by Di Hong's soul power.

Falling to the ground, Dai Yutian looked at his hands in disbelief. If he had not used his soul power to protect his hands, his hands would have been burnt by now. Although not burnt, they were still burned. The moment he touched the flame shield, he could clearly feel the scorching temperature of the shield.

He glanced at the platform unwillingly. He didn't expect that Xue Ye was protected by a strong man.

Di Hong stood in front of Xue Ye, with six soul rings circulating around him, two yellow, one purple and three black. Over the past year, his soul power level has reached level 66. Although it has only increased by three levels, it is enough for him now.

Besides, he didn't spend all his time practicing this year.

"Soul Emperor, three ten thousand year soul rings!"

The Soul Emperor was not enough to shock him, but the three ten thousand year soul rings were different. Other Soul Emperors only had two ten thousand year soul rings, but he had three, and the fourth soul ring was ten thousand year old.

Dai Yutian was very unwilling to give up. He thought that as long as he could catch Xue Ye, he would succeed. However, a Soul Emperor suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

He is just a Soul Sect master and there is no way he can be a match for Di Hong.
