Against The Heavens 148 Rain Of Blood.

Li Yang's wry smile twitched slightly as he looked at the two sisters stepping out of the spatial rift, they had sadly picked up his habit of having terrible timing. The scene also caught the attention of the others, Fang Ying and Zhao Feng looking pleasantly surprised while Tian Zheng looked taken aback.

The strength of the orange-eyed and crimson-haired Fang Yazhu and the green-eyed and blue-haired Fang Xiulan was well known to everyone from the sects, they were among the strongest people on this planet. But it wasn't just their presence that caused some shock to Tian Zheng, there was also the fact that they arrived together. The rivalry between the leaders of the two sects was well-known, they would basically be at each other's throats the moment they set foot in the same city. But if that shock wasn't already enough, he nearly felt his heart stop when he heard Li Yang call out to the two.

"Oy, crybabies! Over here!"

Tian Zheng didn't even have the opportunity to look at Li Yang as if he was a madman before he saw a shiver run through both Fang Xiulan and Fang Yazhu's bodies. Their heads quickly spun around, their gazes riveting on Li Yang, who still carried his wry smile while looking at the two of them.

Li Yang's group of four was only able to see the air in front of them shimmer slightly before both Fang Xiulan and Fang Yazhu arrived in front of them, their already red and teary eyes trembling as they looked at Li Yang. They stretched out their shivering arms, stopping in front of Li Yang as if they were afraid that he was going to vanish if they touched him. Li Yang stretched out his own arms towards the two girls in front of him, but rather than grabbing onto their arms, he gave both of them a vicious flick to the forehead.

"Yeah, no, we don't have time for the two of you to start bawling now. Knowing you, we'll be here for the next week if I were to allow that. Our priority now is to get out of here, before that s.h.i.t over there gets even worse. You can cry all you want after that."

Li Yang used his thumb to gesture towards the scene unfolding above them, the battle between Mao Tengzou and Xing Yuyen. He could feel that both of the Fang sisters had reached the middle stage of the Celestial Immortal realm, but both the combatants above them were most definitely at a higher level, staying here was tantamount to suicide. Fang Xiulan and Fang Yazhu obediently nodded their heads and wiped their eyes, their words causing another shock to run through Tian Zheng.

"As you say, Big Brother. But we'll have you keep us company for at least a month once we're out of here, that's the least you can do for us."

Tian Zheng thought there was no longer anything that could shock him after he found out about Li Yang's true ident.i.ty, but now he realized that he had been wrong. He didn't know anything about Li Yang's relationship with Fang Xiulan and Fang Yazhu, the news he received contained nothing about them and neither of them had ever mentioned either the name Li Yang or Thunder Monarch.

But Tian Zheng couldn't help but wonder, why would Li Yang bother with joining the Yuan clan if he was this close to these two? But how could Tian Zheng possibly understand Li Yang's pride, the pride of a man once heralded as the Thunder Monarch? He was not content with hiding behind others, he was someone who wanted to stand in the very front and at the very top, a man whose soul disdained even the heavens themselves.

The group didn't linger in the area for long after the Fang twins joined up with them, continuing their rush towards the exit. They couldn't use the rift that the Fang twins tore open, a few of the white tentacles had already stretched toward it and started to eat away at the chaotic energy of it. There was also the fact that the environment within a spatial rift was incredibly chaotic and dangerous, it would be hard to guarantee the survival of Li Yang and the others, even with Fang Xiulan and Fang Yazhu at their side.

Despite the vast distance between the two groups, the violent tremors from Xing Yuyen's battle against Mao Tengzou were still able to reach Li Yang and the others as they ran, rippling through s.p.a.ce and forming cracks all throughout the Ocean G.o.d's Graveyard.

Li Yang felt something heavy drip onto his face just as they arrived on an island only a few hundred kilometers from the exit. He quickly wiped it off his face and inspected his finger, discovering that it was a thick drop of crimson blood. Before he even had the time to raise his head, more and more drops of blood started to rain down on the area, each one only the size of a fingernail but as heavy as a mallet.

Li Yang and the others all raised their heads and peered through the rain of blood, their gazes converging on the body of Xing Yuyen. The tentacles on his back had all been torn out in a violent fashion by the white tentacles that Mao Tengzou controlled, chunks of flesh still hanging on the ends of Xing Yuyen's tentacles as they were quickly drained dry and turned to dust.

Li Yang's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the scene, not because of the fact that Xing Yuyen was losing this quickly, but because of what he could feel from the blood that was raining down. It was completely normal Demonic beast blood, it didn't have an ounce of Divine Beast aura in it. Was this Xing Yuyen really not a Divine Beast, could a normal Demonic beast really reach such a level of strength? Fang Xiulan suddenly took a quick step forward, blue feathers appearing on the back of her left hand as she waved it.

The rain of blood suddenly froze above them, the frozen droplets freezing mid-air and stretching out, connecting with each other and forming a large shield above them. A thick white tentacle suddenly pierced through s.p.a.ce above them just as the shield finished forming, crashing into the thick shield and cracking it. Li Yang guessed that the tentacle's purpose was to suck up all the blood that rained down, it would likely have shattered the shield almost instantly if it was sent out to attack them.

Fang Xiulan didn't stop after blocking the tentacle, stretching out her other hand, which also started to sprout blue feathers. She clapped her hands together in a soft manner, but the simple motion caused ripples to spread throughout the surrounding s.p.a.ce. The entire island, as well as the water for at least 100 kilometers around them all, froze instantly after Fang Xiulan clapped her hands. Surprisingly enough, the tentacle that had crashed into the wall of ice was unable to escape the same fate, freezing solid in less than a second and then scattering to the wind as tiny ice crystals.

Li Yang's eyebrow rose in surprise when he saw the scene, his gaze drifting towards Fang Xiulan and the feathers on her hands. Now that he looked closer, he saw that the feathers were actually formed from tiny ice crystals stacked so densely that they were almost impossible to discern with the naked eyes. He also noticed that Fang Xiulan's normally green eyes had turned a transparent blue, a chilly sensation seeping into Li Yang's soul as he looked at her eyes. Li Yang stretched out one hand and pinched the feathers on her arm, muttering somewhat quietly.

"So you've strengthened it even further...can't have been easy."

The truth was that while the Liang tribe was indeed the first new Demon Warriors born since the fall of the Devil's Gate sect, they weren't the first Demon Warriors that Li Yang had ever created. The first Demon Warriors he ever made were the two abandoned and starving twins he picked up and raised as his own sisters. Fang Xiulan's lips curled up slightly in response to Li Yang's words, her chest puffing out in pride.

"Hehe, did you think we would just sit around and do nothing without you? You wouldn't believe me if I told you how many planets and galaxies we scoured in search of beasts that would be suitable as upgrades. Only the strongest would be good enough, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to take down Jing Yimu."

The two twins made sure to lay low after the death of Li Yang, scouring countless planets for beasts that could help them grow stronger, sharpening their fangs and claws so that they could sink them into the throats of those that killed Li Yang. They even faked a falling out and a long-lasting hatred just to trick everyone into thinking that they were fully focused on each other. They had already managed to kill four of the other people involved in Li Yang's death, but Jing Yimu still eluded them, the two continuing to sharpen their fangs in the dark.

The group quickly continued to flee after Fang Xiulan launched her attack, Mao Tengzou had most definitely noticed them after that move. Fang Ying's law of s.p.a.ce rapidly brought them closer to the exit, the group reaching the first island they arrived on after only another four teleportations.

The Devil's Grasp Vine was still lingering within the island, but the pressure unleashed by Mao Tengzou and Xing Yuying seemed to have scared it so much that it didn't even dare show itself. Now they just had to go a few kilometers up into the air and then they would be automatically sucked out of this place and return to a somewhat safer place.

But just as they raised their heads and Fang Ying started to channel her Qi, an eardrum-shattering roar echoed over the entire Ocean G.o.d's Graveyard. The group managed to move their gazes just in time to see Xing Yuyen's body get torn in half right down the middle, his rain dyeing the entire sky and ocean red as it hailed down. But even when he was torn apart like that, Xing Yuyen managed to remain alive, a testament to how unearthly strong of a Demonic beast he was.

Shortly after Xing Yuyen was torn in two, the sky in the Ocean G.o.d's Graveyard suddenly split open, a ma.s.sive black crack spreading out to cover almost the entire sky. The crack resembled a disdainful smirk that looked down on creation itself, a figure appearing from the depths of the crack, bringing with it a pressure so horrifying that it silenced and froze everything inside the Ocean G.o.d's Graveyard, even the raining blood was forced to halt in front of the approaching figure.
