#2358 - Siege of Sky City (Part 1)
The male Celestial Emperors waiting outside the Sky Breeze Group's base were getting anxious.
"I heard that Lady Sophie has been inside for half an incense stick's time. Why hasn't she come out yet? What could they possibly be talking about for so long?"
"Exactly! Last time I had something important to discuss with Lady Sophie, she only gave me a few dozen seconds. The difference is a bit too much, isn't it?"
"You were actively seeking out Lady Sophie, but Emperor Qin is passively waiting for Lady Sophie to come to his door. How can they be the same?"
"Sigh, after seeing Emperor Qin's treatment, I just want to say that I'm envious, jealous, and a little hateful! I wish I could get this kind of treatment someday."
...
While chatting with Sophie, Qin Yi glanced at the time:
"You've been here for a quarter of an hour. If you continue to stay, those male Celestial Emperors outside might just eat me alive."
The implication was already a subtle hint for her to leave.
Sophie acted as if she didn't understand and asked, "Are you afraid of those guys outside?"
Qin Yi said, "Rumors can be scary sometimes."
Sophie said, "Then I'll see you another day."
She hadn't really figured out what her core purpose was in coming to see Qin Yi.
The two of them had been awkwardly chatting for almost a quarter of an hour.
Now was a good time for her to leave.
Seeing Qin Yi escort Sophie out, many male Celestial Emperors couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness she came out, or I would have really thought they were doing something behind our backs. Now I don't have to worry about it."
"You're really naive. A quarter of an hour is enough time to do a lot of things, but looking at Emperor Qin, it probably won't be that fast."
"Who cares about that? As long as Sophie comes out, that's all that matters. This Emperor Qin is really enviable. I haven't had this kind of treatment in Sky City for so many years."
"Who isn't saying that? I wonder what these beauties see in Emperor Qin. What do I lack compared to him?"
...
Time passed, and a month went by in the blink of an eye.
This month, Emily was kept busy and felt rather overwhelmed.
She had to deal with those female Celestial Emperors who arrived on time and were difficult to send away every day.
Occasionally, Sophie would come here once, followed closely by those male Celestial Emperors...
Emily said helplessly, "I'm so tired."
Fortunately, this kind of exhaustion didn't last too long.
Because the beast tide had arrived!
The surroundings of Sky City were surrounded by layers upon layers of beasts.
Qin Yi had originally planned to leave, but with the beast tide occurring, it seemed he had to resolve it before leaving.
His main goal was also to obtain more cultivation resources from the beast tide.
His cultivation and combat power were entirely supported by cultivation resources.
Without sufficient cultivation resources, breaking through a major realm would be like asking a skilled woman to cook without rice.
Inside Sky City, almost all living beings were mobilized.
"These damned ferocious beasts actually dare to attack our Sky City! No matter what, we can't let them succeed! We must completely kill them!"
"Hmph, in recent years, many Celestial Emperors have gathered in our Sky City from various places. Each one is very powerful and fully capable of contending with these ferocious beasts."
"I hope so. This beast tide is different from any we've known before. It's full of strangeness and power. We still need to be careful."
"We definitely need to be careful. No one wants to lose their life due to a moment of carelessness. Fortunately, we have many Celestial Emperor-level powerhouses present."
...
The battle between the two sides soon unfolded.
Almost all the Celestial Emperors within Sky City participated in the battle.
On one hand, they could obtain benefits such as points for killing ferocious beasts.
On the other hand, Sky City was their home for survival.
For the sake of their home, they had to go all out.
Otherwise, once Sky City was reduced to ruins,
the vast majority of them would perish at the hands of the ferocious beasts.
Perhaps Qin Yi's luck was too good, or perhaps it wasn't so good.
He was targeted by five Second-Rank Celestial Emperor-level ferocious beasts, who surrounded him in the center.
"Outsider, you used your tempting Sixth-Rank Celestial Exalted cultivation as bait to kill many members of our ferocious beast clan. Now is your time to die!"
"Facing the five of us Second-Rank Celestial Emperors, what moves do you have to cope with? Besides perishing, you have no other choice now. Do you have any last words to say?"
"Hmph, why bother asking this outsider to say any last words at this time? It's better to let him perish with regret, that would be even more painful, wouldn't it?"
"Exactly! Anyway, if it were me, I would definitely not let this outsider say any so-called last words, but directly let him perish with regret, that would be the most satisfying!"
...
Qin Yi's face showed a look of disdain, "You want me to perish with regret? You're not qualified!"
"I'll send you on your way."
Upon hearing these words, the five Second-Rank Celestial Emperor-level ferocious beasts were immediately furious.
His words were full of disdain, as if he didn't take them seriously at all.
They were Second-Rank Celestial Emperors!
Even in the beast tide, they were considered to be the backbone!
But in front of Qin Yi, they were acting so unimpressive.
Whether he was doing it on purpose or genuinely thinking that way, it was unforgivable!
Other Celestial Emperor-level beings in the battlefield also saw this scene happening to Qin Yi.
Seeing him besieged by five Second-Rank Celestial Emperor ferocious beasts, they couldn't help but watch the show.
The female Celestial Emperors were dissatisfied with Qin Yi's overly double-standard behavior towards them.
Why could Sophie see him every time?
But he always said he was feeling unwell to them.
Wasn't it obvious... that he looked down on them!
Don't underestimate a woman's jealousy. Once it rises, it will definitely cause fear!
The male Celestial Emperors were dissatisfied with the relationship between Qin Yi and Sophie.
The goddess in their hearts had not yet been obtained, but Qin Yi, facing Sophie's overtures, actually looked disgusted.
It was simply outrageous!
"Hmph, I want to see how this Emperor Qin survives the siege of five Second-Rank Celestial Emperor-level ferocious beasts. Even if he can kill Mo Huo, so what?"
"You must know that with Mo Huo's combat power, he wouldn't be able to survive even against one of these ferocious beasts. Now Emperor Qin has to face five such ferocious beasts."
"I feel like we're being a bit too cruel, aren't we? After all, Emperor Qin is our companion now. We can't appear to be standing by and watching him die."
"What do you mean standing by and watching him die? We're not. It's just that we all have our own ferocious beasts to deal with, where do we have the energy to care about Qin Yi?"
...
Their words were beautiful and hypocritical, but only they themselves knew what they were really thinking in their hearts.
The ferocious beasts on Qin Yi's side, after hearing his words, revealed a terrifying killing intent.
Obviously, Qin Yi's attitude and words had completely enraged them from the depths of their hearts!
