Chapter 979: Confession from the Heart

Ye Tianming rushed towards Yun Manyao desperately, as if the madly surging power of thunder and lightning had no effect on him.

He hugged Yun Manyao in his arms and used his body to block the horrific thunder tribulation that was enough to destroy everything!

"boom!"

Lightning exploded, and a deafening roar resounded through heaven and earth, as if it was going to tear the entire world apart.

Ye Tianming groaned and spat out a mouthful of blood. His whole body was blasted away like a cannonball by the horrific power of thunder and fell heavily to the ground.

"Ye Tianming!"

Yun Manyao let out a heart-wrenching scream, and tears flowed like a flood, instantly blurring her eyes.

She struggled to get up from the ground, stumbled to Ye Tianming, and hugged him in her trembling arms.

"Ye Tianming, how are you? Wake up! Don't scare me..."

Yun Manyao's voice was trembling and filled with a strong cry, which was heartbreaking to hear.

Ye Tianming slowly opened his eyes and looked at Yun Manyao, who was crying in front of him. He forced a smile and said weakly, "Ahem... why are you crying... I'm not dead yet, am I?"

"You still want to talk!" Yun Manyao cried even harder, "Why are you so stupid? Why did you block the thunder for me? Do you know that you will die if you do this..."

Ye Tianming looked at Yun Manyao gently, his voice much gentler: "Your cultivation is the worst. If I don't protect you, do you think I'll just watch you get destroyed by the thunder? What's more, it's just a thunder tribulation, it can't kill me..."

"You..." Yun Manyao could no longer speak. She just hugged Ye Tianming tightly, fearing that he would suddenly disappear.

The power of the falling thunder seemed to have not been consumed yet, and a terrifying explosion sounded.

The remaining thunder force followed.

Su Yao and the others also fell into a bitter battle. Every time the power of thunder fell, it seemed to tear their bodies apart and shred their souls.

Until the end, everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Tianming.

As the remaining thunder force rolled in the void, brewing the power to destroy the world, everyone's heart was in their throat.

"boom!"

A bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket, carrying with it the power to destroy the world, fell from the sky and struck Ye Tianming hard!

The remaining force was obviously stronger than the thunder force they had endured.

When Su Yao saw this scene, her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and she could hardly breathe. Her beautiful eyes widened, and tears could no longer be held back. She murmured to herself: "Ye Tianming, you must not be in any trouble..."

Lan Xinyao stood in the distance, her expression calm, as if this devastating scene had nothing to do with her.

She just glanced at it lightly and then looked away, with no ripples in her heart, as if all this was within her expectations.

Su Yichen looked at Ye Tianming being swallowed by lightning, and a sinister sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He roared in his heart: "Ye Tianming, aren't you crazy? This is your retribution! Go to hell!"

Ye Tianming faced this final thunder tribulation head-on, feeling as if a towering mountain was pressing down on him, ready to crush him into dust. His bones groaned under the heavy weight, his meridians were about to burst, his internal organs seemed to have shifted, and the severe pain made his eyes go black.

"what!"

Ye Tianming let out a shrill scream and was instantly swallowed up by lightning.

"Ye Tianming!" Yun Manyao cried heartbreakingly, despair drowning her like a tide.

In Yun Manyao's mind, every detail of her meeting Ye Tianming kept emerging.

When they first met, he was cynical and deliberately tricked her.

But when she was injured and in danger, he stood firmly in front of her and pulled her back from the brink of death.

At that time, he had a clear distinction between love and hate, and was invincible, but...

She was the one who let him down.

She watched helplessly as the three elders of the Butian Palace coveted the treasures on Ye Tianming, and used threats and bribes to harm him secretly.

Why was she so stupid at that time? Why didn't she know to stand firmly in front of him and help him block the persecution from the sect?

It was all her fault that she was worried about this and that, and was indecisive, which eventually led to Ye Tianming and her parting ways.

She deserves it all!

When Ye Tianming needed her the most, she chose to retreat.

This time, she must not let history repeat itself!

Yun Manyao's desperate cries echoed under the thunderclouds. Su Yao bit her lips tightly, her eyes blurred by tears. Even Lan Xinyao, who was always calm, could not help but clench her fists, feeling a little reluctant.

Su Yichen had a ferocious smile on his face, as if he had already seen the scene of Ye Tianming being blasted into pieces by the thunder.

At this critical moment, a white figure suddenly appeared in front of Ye Tianming.

Yun Manyao!

She rushed into the range of the thunder tribulation regardless of everything and used her weak body to block Ye Tianming!

I saw a white jade ruyi appear in Yun Manyao's hand.

The jade ruyi is carved with intricate patterns and emits a bright white light. A vast and ancient aura permeates the air, as if it had crossed the long river of time and descended from ancient times.

"This is... an ancient artifact?!" Su Yichen exclaimed, his eyes full of greed and jealousy.

This jade ruyi is exactly the Jiutian Xirang Ruyi that was obtained from the treasure house before!

Legend has it that this magical weapon was made in ancient times using the remaining colorful stones after Nuwa repaired the sky. It has incredible defensive capabilities and can withstand all attacks.

"Ye Tianming, you must live!" Yun Manyao's beautiful eyes were full of determination. She tightly grasped the jade ruyi with both hands and injected all her spiritual power into it without reservation.

"Buzz!"

The jade ruyi trembled violently and made a crisp sound. The white light suddenly surged and turned into a huge light shield, covering Ye Tianming and Yun Manyao.

"boom!"

Lightning as thick as a bucket struck the light shield, making a deafening explosion. Terrifying energy fluctuations raged, and the surrounding space seemed to be collapsing.

"puff!"

Yun Manyao spat out a mouthful of blood and her face turned extremely pale in an instant, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted, injecting all her spiritual power into the jade ruyi to maintain the operation of the light shield.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound was heard, and more and more cracks appeared on the jade ruyi, and finally with a "bang", it broke completely!

"Tianming! I can't stay in this secret place anymore. I'll leave first. I hope you can get the inheritance. Goodbye!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Ruyi turned into starlight and dissipated between heaven and earth.

Yun Manyao's body also gradually became transparent.

"Manyao!"

Ye Tianming clapped his hands and fiercely grasped the remaining power of thunder. Seeing this scene in front of him, his eyes suddenly turned red and he let out a heart-wrenching roar.

However, Yun Manyao's body also became transparent, and eventually turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the secret realm.

"No! Manyao!" Ye Tianming wanted to reach out and grab her, but he grabbed nothing. His eyes were full of pain and self-blame.
