Jun Wu Xie sat calmly in the chair beside Su Ruiying. There was no slight expression on her face, only her pair of cold eyes that had swept over Su Ruiying. She could see that Su Ruiying’s heart was shaking but could only maintain the smile on her face.

  “Cough…… Ah Fu serve tea.” Su Ruiying concealed her guilty mood as much as possible.

  The ghoul masked man quickly retreated, and after a while he served the tea but Jun Wu Xie did not accept it and simply left the tea that was placed on the table beside her.

  Su Ruiying couldn’t wait for Jun Wu Xie to speak. Her heart was beating wildly as she tried to retain her calm facade, “It’s so late, Yan Hai, what is the matter?”


  Jun Wu Xie finally said, “It’s not a big deal, but I’m going to see His Lord three days later, and I feel a little bit unsure. After all, I have never seen His Lord before.”


  Su Ruiying was relieved after hearing her words.

  “Oh, this is the matter you are referring to.”


  “Otherwise?” Jun Wu Xie raised her eyebrows slightly.

  Su Ruiying smiled a little stiffly and awkwardly: “For this matter, you don’t have to be too nervous about it, since you are the one chosen by His Lord, His Lord will not embarrass you. You can rest assured. His Lord is very kind to us Knights of Destruction, and his temperament is also very good. ”


  “Oh? Really?” Jun Wu Xie said quietly.

  “That’s natural. If I change someone else, I might not dare to be so stubborn. But we are different. The existence of us Knights of Destruction was selected by His Lord himself. It is completely different from other people. We belong directly to His Lord. On the other hand, our power also comes from His Lord. When you become a Knight of Destruction, you will understand that everything I said today is true. “Su Ruiying seemed to relax her vigilance and said nonchalantly.

  “Your strength is already very strong. If there is any blessing from His Lord, it will be better.”


  “However, Chi Yan had said before that it was uncomfortable. Before the ceremony, could I not see His Lord?” Jun Wu Xie naturally asked her question.

  However, Su Ruiying chuckled with a smile: “That’s Chi Yan deliberately trying to test you. The few of us also met His Lord before becoming a Knight of Destruction. After all, we will serve ourselves to His Lord. If His Lord has not seen it with his own eyes, how can he be assured? ”


  “I was curious. When did you find out that Chi Yan tested you. And unexpectedly something happened to Long Yao halfway and His Lord would see you in advance ……” , Su Ruiying’s expression was obviously a bit stiff. She secretly looked at Jun Wu Xie and saw that she did not find out anything.

  And Jun Wu Xie had already obtained the result she wanted to know the most. It turns out that His Lord asked to see her in advance, not a special case, but a situation that every Knight of Destruction would encounter. As a result, they were nervous previously. Now they could relax a little bit.

  Jun Wu Xie secretly exchanged a look with Jun Wu Yao. Their thoughts were known to each other but left unspoken.

  “Anyway, there shouldn’t be any problems for His Lord to see you. If you still have something to worry about, just ask me.” Su Ruiying’s attitude turned good at this moment, it was just that ugly face that people couldn’t get close to.

  “There is one thing that I really want to ask.” Jun Wu Xie lowered her gaze.

  “Oh? What’s the matter?” Su Ruiying asked.

  Jun Wu Xie raised her eyes slightly. Her cold eyes met Su Ruiying’s eyes, “That day, why did Long Yao look for you?”


  Croak!

  The smile on Su Ruiying’s face shattered in an instant. She looked at Jun Wu Xie stiffly. She could hardly believe what she had heard.

  “You …… what do you mean ……” Su Ruiying couldn’t laugh at all.

  Jun Wu Xie said: “That day, I saw Long Yao coming out of your mansion. I believe it’s because of me that he came to look for you. After all, it’s always your responsibility to erase the memories of a Knight of Destruction, right?”


  Jun Wu Xie’s tone was not fast, but it was like a cold wind crossing, taking away the temperature of Su Ruiying’s body. She looked at Jun Wu Xie in horror, her hands on her knees began to shake uncontrollably.

  “You know about it?” Su Ruiying almost extruded from her throat. The fear in her heart was magnified infinitely at this moment.

  “What do you say?” Jun Wu Xie raised his eyebrows slightly.

  Su Ruiying took a deep breath and almost stood up from the chair almost instantly.

  “Long Yao came over himself. I didn’t say anything to him at all. Yan Hai, I actively invited you as my guest as I had originally intended to be good with you. I believe you can see this. Long Yao is a Knight of Destruction, but his strength is far weaker than you. I don’t need to offend you because of him. “Su Ruiying almost instantly confirmed that Jun Wu Xie knew everything. Otherwise, Jun Wu Xie would not have suddenly mentioned this matter at this time.

  Su Ruiying was anxious to clarify the relationship between Long Yao and herself, and she didn’t even think about Jun Wu Xie’s words at all.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at Su Ruiying’s reaction in her eyes. A flash of chill flashed in her eyes.

  In fact, Jun Wu Xie didn’t know why Long Yao came to find Su Ruiying. She just tried to test her out subconsciously. But she didn’t expect Su Ruiying to be so nervous.

  However, Long Yao was now dead and seeing Su Ruiying overreacting and looking so frightened, it was apparent that she was deeply afraid that it would implicate her.

  “It turns out so.” Jun Wu Xie didn’t reveal anything else, but her tone was ambiguous.

  “That’s natural, and I’m not a fool.” Su Ruiying propped up her composure. But her eyes were empty.

  “Since Lady Ying is so hospitable, can I live in your house in the next few days? Fortunately, if I don’t understand anything, I can ask you in time.” Jun Wu Xie said.

  Su Ruiying almost cried. If it was the last time, she can’t wait for Jun Wu Xie to live in her house. Now she …… she was really scared, even though she could manipulate the soul, Long Yao had already been killed so easily. She was extremely terrified, how could she dare to keep this death god, Jun Wu Xie?

  But……

  The words have already been spoken. There was no reason to change it now.

  Su Ruiying could only say with a stifled smile as the corner of her lips twitched: “Of course you may, as long as Yan Hai doesn’t find this place too small. You can live for as long as you want.”


  “Sorry for the trouble then.” Jun Wu Xie nodded slightly and said, “But I don’t like those puppets, so please find me a room without puppets.”


  Su Ruiying was awkward and she could only respond with a smile.

  Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao lived in Su Ruiying’s residence. No matter how reluctant Su Ruiying’s heart was, she could only grit her teeth and swallow it. .

  It was just that……

  That night, Su Ruiying was completely restless. Even her favorite soul puppets could not not calm her inner fears. She locked herself in the room and didn’t dare go anywhere. She just wanted to pass these three days as soon as possible, so that Jun Wu Xie could leave soon.

  Su Ruiying did not dare to go out. But it was the best time for Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao to go out.

  After studying the array totem behind the puppet, Jun Wu Xie already had a way to deal with it. They were both very curious about Su Ruiying’s room and it was as if there was a voice telling her that in there, she could find what she seeked.

  Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao used Spirit Reinforcement to isolate the sight of the soul. This method could only cause the blinding effect on the soul. If it was a living person, it had no effect.

  Taking advantage of the cloak of the dark night, the two finally pushed open that room door of Su Ruiying’s soul puppets.

  A candlelight was still lit in the room. As the door was pushed open, the night wind suddenly entered as the flame on the candlelight started to sway.

  On the cabinets standing against the wall, there were exquisite puppets. Each of which were works of art. Jun Wu Xie swept her gaze over and very soon, Bai Zhu’s puppet was found on one of the shelves.

  It sat motionless in the cupboard, quietly like a lifeless doll, but those eyes flashed faintly in the firelight, full of despair.

  Jun Wu Xie withdrew her gaze. Before she knew Su Ruiying, she did not realize that there was such a thing as the survival of the soul. Therefore, Bai Zhu’s soul was retained. But when dealing with Long Yao, Jun Wu Xie did not give Long Yao any chance. She used her handful of soul-fixing methods to crush Long Yao’s heart, and at the same time, shredded Long Yao’s soul.

  Even if Su Ruiying had the ability that surpassed the sky, it was absolutely impossible for Long Yao to live again.

  “In this room, there is a lot of resentment.” Jun Wu Yao bowed his head to Jun Wu Xie through the shielding effect of the Spiritual Reinforcement.

  In the eyes of those puppets, they could not be seen, nor could they hear their voices.

  The whole room was filled with a chill that made people feel uncomfortable and there was grievance mixed in it. That was the grievance that could only be felt by people who have spent some time in the Soul World. It comes from the soul.

  Jun Wu Xie also felt it, but she let herself ignore those grievances as much as possible. In this room of Su Ruiying’s, there were quite a number of puppets in the room. The amount of grievances could be imagined.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at Su Ruiying’s desk. Apart from a few carved half-dolls, she found a worn sheepskin book in the drawer and opened the pages. The handwriting of dragon and phoenix was revealed in front of her eyes. .

  Rather than saying that it was a book, it was better to say that this was Su Ruiying’s daily record.

  The above clearly records her process of sculpting each puppet, and the beauty of those puppets. The words and phrases seem bland, but they made one feel chilled.

  Jun Wu Xie gave a quick glance and saw a description of a puppet. Her eyes became extremely cold.

  The whole process was clearly written on it, and combining time and events. She was sure that the puppet written above was Rong Ruo!

  “What’s wrong?” Jun Wu Yao seemed to notice Jun Wu Xie’s anomaly, and walked to her and asked softly.

  Jun Wu Xie shook her head and put back the book that had been read back again. But her strength was a little heavier. The parchment book hit the drawer with some sound, before waiting for Jun Wu Xie to react.

  From the back of the drawer, a thin scroll suddenly fell out.

  Jun Wu Yao stretched out his hand to pick up the scroll before it fell to the ground.

  “This is ……” Jun Wu Yao’s eyes slightly stunned when he read the contents of the scroll.

  Jun Wu Xie stretched out her hand to take the scroll, but with a glance, her eyes suddenly lit up in excitement!

  On the scroll, there were four words clearly written -Life and Death Worm! !

  “Life and Death Worm? How could this thing be in Su Ruiying’s hands?” Jun Wu Xie looked at the scroll in her hand with surprise and almost couldn’t wait to turn it over. The scroll detailed the process of refining the whole life and death worm.

  “Is the life and death worm made by Su Ruiying ?” Jun Wu Xie made a guess.

  Jun Wu Yao shook his head. “The book you just held should be from Su Ruiying, but the writing on it is very different from this one, and I am afraid that the scroll is dilapidated and comparing the two, it should not be Su Ruiying’s handwriting. ”


  “Then this scroll ……” Jun Wu Xie’s mood suddenly became excited. If this scroll could be used to release the life and death worm from Jun Wu Yao’s body, then she would be more confident.

  “If I didn’t guess wrong, it should be His Lord who handed it to Su Ruiying. Elder Luo also said before, refining the life and death worm requires a lot of souls, and Su Ruiying is good at manipulating the souls. His Lord may still want to prepare the second life and death worm. This is why it will be handed over to Su Ruiying. ” said Jun Wu Yao.

  “The second life and death worm?” Jun Wu Xie’s brows were slightly wrinkled. Who does His Lord want to use this deadly poison on?

  Jun Wu Xie didn’t have much time to think. She could only keep all the contents of the book in her mind in the shortest span of time, and then put the scroll back in place.

  She now knows the refining method of life and death worm and the materials needed, and the rest was to find a way to remove it.

  “That room, was what Rong Ruo mentioned before?” Jun Wu Yao’s eyes fell on the other door in the room.

  According to Rong Ruo’s memories, behind that door was a huge room filled with many souls.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded, and the two immediately walked towards the room.

  The moment when the door was pushed open, a cold breath came across, as if entering the world of ice and snow in an instant.

  Through the faint candlelight, Jun Wu Xie clearly saw the shelf in the room and the thousands of crystal balls on the shelf!

  In each crystal ball, there was a relentless and terrified face reflected, and the twisted soul constantly struggled and screamed in the small sphere. Their voices, their roars, were completely isolated in the crystal ball, no one would hear it even if they shouted till they broke their throat.

  “So many ……” Jun Wu Xie’s gaze swept through the room, and the candlelight was so weak that it couldn’t shine at the end of the room. She seemed to feel that the world in front of her was a huge endless black hole.

  Innumerable souls, innumerable crystal balls, fastened by that unknown and that sinister plan.

  Jun Wu Yao took Jun Wu Xie into his arms, raised his hand, and lit a flame with dark spirit at his fingertips. The small flame flew to the dark room with the flick of his finger. The place where the flame passed illuminated everything. As the flame advanced, the size of this room was far beyond Jun Wu Xie’s expectations.

  The entire room was like a bottomless hole. From the initial entrance, the entire ground begins to extend downwards regularly, from the ground to the bottom, which makes the room look small from the outside, but it’s real area was covered to the ground.

  Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao glanced at each other, and both of them did not speak, but they tacitly moved together and walked deeper in.

  A cluster of dark spirit flames ignited at Jun Wu Yao’s fingertips, illuminating the road in front of them like a night pearl.

  The road beneath their feet gradually sloped down. They could feel that there were small protrusions on the slate floor that they had just stepped on. It was these uneven protrusions that allowed those shelves to stand firmly on the sloping ground without falling.

  Every step they took, where the flame illuminated, neatly arranged shelves that were densely packed with crystal balls could be seen. Under the faint light, faces twisted with anguish and fear on the crystal balls looked like evil spirits crawling out of hell. Such a horrifying sight made one dare not look straight at it.

  Jun Wu Yao subconsciously tightened the hand holding Jun Wu Xie’s shoulder, knowing that she would not be afraid, but he couldn’t help but want to protect her.

  But the further down, the more “quiet” souls in the crystal balls appeared on both sides.

  To be precise, the souls inside the crystal balls were getting smaller and smaller.

  From the initial adult men and women, to where Jun Wu Xie was now at, the souls in the crystal ball have become some young souls. Those souls look up to eleven or twelve years old. Their bodies were thin, their faces were showing panic and anxiety. They didn’t scream or freak out. Instead, they curled up anxiously and were huddled in the corner.

  “These are some children ……” Jun Wu Xie looked at the young souls. They were not adults yet. They were all only children. They would not vent their fears, but only subconsciously want to escape the danger they felt.

  “It seems that our previous guess was correct.” Jun Wu Yao’s footsteps suddenly came to a halt.

  Jun Wu Xie also stopped. The flames in Jun Wu Yao’s hands illuminated the souls on the two rows of shelves in front of them. Compared with the souls of the children who were already considered small before, the souls that appeared in front of them at the moment were much smaller.

  Those were the babies who haven’t opened their eyes. They lay in the crystal balls ignorantly, as quietly as they fell asleep.

  They didn’t even know what danger was.

  Jun Wu Yao made the flame at his fingertips larger and as the illuminated area became wider, they could see that all around them, in the countless crystal balls, they were all filled with small souls of babies!

  Jun Wu Xie stood in the darkness as if she had fallen into the abyss of the souls. Everywhere, there were countless souls.

  “This is His Lord’s plan.” Jun Wu Xie’s eyes swept over the babies. The souls were sleeping quietly without any movement. They were cut off from their vitality and slept shortly after their birth in this small crystal ball, waiting for the day of final demise.

  When imagination turns into reality, the degree of cruelty doubles.

  “I suddenly feel that the people in the Upper Realm are very pathetic.” Jun Wu Yao said.

  Jun Wu Xie lowered her eyes, “Yeah, how sad this is. Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms. Why the need to sacrifice the blood of theThree Realms? Once the blood sacrifice begins, I am afraid that even the creatures connected to the Upper Realm will also be destroyed.” Those who follow in the footsteps of His Lord, have desperately created blood sacrifice arrays. Even Luo Qingcheng was tempted by such power, and completely lost her human nature at that time.

  But how could they know that they could not obtain powerful power at all? Their existence was to dedicate their souls to the blood sacrifice. In the end, there was only one person who could truly break the void and gain the supreme power. These people were just pitiful and sad funerary items.

  Perhaps, until the day they die, they would then realize that they were just a group of chess pieces.

  Ironically, they paid everything for it.

  “How can the person who created all this care about the life and death of others? What he wants has always been the most powerful force. The desire makes him addicted, he can’t see everything around him, he can only see that supreme position. “Jun Wu Yao was not amused, he never felt that a supreme position was a glorious thing. He had always felt that the world was so uninteresting. War, surviving and fighting were all about killing and just a means to pass the time.

  It was only until he met Jun Wu Xie. It was then he had his own perseverance. The idea of ​​fighting to protect a person.

  The concept of being strong, His Lord and Jun Wu Yao stood on each opposite end.

  After they had walked for a long period, not knowing how many souls they had seen, Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao finally walked to an end.

  It was a huge underground palace. The whole palace was a giant circle. Around the circle, there were four pillars of blue flames, and these blue flames illuminated the whole palace.

  At the center of the circle, there was an altar made up of an unknown material. On the platform, blood stains could be seen.

  Jun Wu Xie subconsciously wanted to walk forward, but Jun Wu Yao suddenly pulled her wrist.

  Jun Wu Xie turned her head with doubt when she discovered that Jun Wu Yao’s complexion had turned pale and he looked like he was suffering in pain. His brow quietly frowned and a hand pressed against his temple.

  “What’s wrong?” Jun Wu Xie was startled.

  Jun Wu Yao gritted his teeth without speaking, he didn’t know how to explain to Jun Wu Xie, the pictures that suddenly appeared in his mind.

  Fragmented, but painful pictures.

  Those chaotic pictures seemed to overlap with everything in front of him. He vaguely saw the face of His Lord. In this underground palace enveloped in the blue flames, he was bound by his hands and feet and placed on the altar.

  He saw His Lord laughing, and saw Su Ruiying standing aside with his head down, the scene was truly terrible.

  Looking at Jun Wu Yao’s painful expression, Jun Wu Xie’s heart lifted up instantly.

  “This place, I’ve been here ……” Jun Wu Yao held his forehead, his temples swelled, and the fragmentary pictures were too cluttered. He couldn’t keep his head clear.

  Seeing Jun Wu Yao’s situation getting worse and worse, Jun Wu Xie decided to leave temporarily. She took Jun Wu Yao’s hand and went all the way back .

  When he returned to the room, Jun Wu Yao’s condition still did not improve. Jun Wu Xie touched his forehead. The high temperature surprised her, but when she looked at his pulse, there was nothing abnormal.

  Jun Wu Yao almost fell into an unconscious state, lying on the bed. His eyes were closed and his brow frowned deeply.

  In Jun Wu Xie’s mind, he kept thinking about the words of Jun Wu Yao.

  He said that he had been to the underground palace before. But when did he go?

  Jun Wu Xie had no way to ask. She could only sit quietly beside the bed, watching Jun Wu Yao in pain.

  When the first ray of sunlight reached the earth, Su Ruiying walked out of her room with a pair of tired eyes. Last night, she failed to close her eyes. She was worried that Jun Wu Xie would deal with her. She went out early in the morning, highly vigilant as she cautiously scanned her surroundings. After ascertaining with the ghoul masked man that Jun Wu Xie did not have any special movements last night, she was slightly relieved.

  It’s a pity that Su Ruiying had no time to breathe when the ghoul masked man suddenly said that the follower of Jun Wu Xie was sick and that Jun Wu xie had requested for Su Ruiying to have a look.

  No matter how unwillingly Su Ruiying was, she was still not a doctor. What’s the point of her having a look?

  However, the fear in her heart made Su Ruiying hurry over.

  Upon entering the room, Jun Wu Xie was sitting by the bed and the follower was lying on the bed quietly. Su Ruiying tried hard to make her face look calmer.

  “Yan Hai, how is your follower sick? Do you need me to ask the doctor to come?” Su Ruiying asked.

  Jun Wu Xie slowly raised her eyes, looked at Su Ruiying and shook her head slightly. “It’s not a big problem. Lady Ying, please come over. There are some words that I want to ask you.”


  Su Ruiying’s face stiffened.

  “What’s the matter?”


  Jun Wu Xie didn’t speak directly, and looked at the chair aside.

  “Why is Lady Ying so nervous, aren’t you going to sit down and talk?”


  Su Ruiying sat down uncomfortably, seemingly calm. But in fact, she felt as if she was sitting on a bed of needles. She was waiting for Jun Wu Xie to speak, but Jun Wu Xie didn’t seem to be in a hurry. After she sat down, Jun Wu Xie’s gaze fell on the bed and was in deep thoughts.

  The time ticked by and the uneasiness in Su Ruiying’s heart continued to deepen in such silence. When her inner fear reached its peak, Jun Wu Xie finally opened her mouth.

  “How long has Lady Ying followed His Lord?” Jun Wu Xie suddenly said, her eyes swept lightly by the incense burner beside her.

  Su Ruiying was stunned slightly as she subconsciously replied: “Thousands of years, too long, and I …… can’t remember.”


  “So long? But before, why hasn’t anyone heard of the Knights of Destruction? Or this only rumoured around in the past thousand years?” Jun Wu Xie asked very naturally.

  Su Ruiying vaguely thought that the question of Jun Wu Xie’s was a little strange, but she didn’t know what was going on.

  “In the beginning, we were not called the Knights of Destruction. To be precise, the Knights of Destruction was just a whim of His Lord. When Chi Yan and I were beside him, Long Yao and Jun Gu did not appear yet. It was later. Suddenly the idea of ​​forming Knights of Destruction was raised by His Lord. That was the way it was created. “Su Ruiying’s voice was calm.

  “Oh? So, you and Chi Yan haven’t lost your memories?” Jun Wu Xie’s eyes flashed a chill.

  According to the previous statement, to become a Knight of Destruction, you must clear all the previous memories, but from Su Ruiying’s words, she and Chi Yan did not seem to lose the memories of the past.

  This question should obviously not be asked by Jun Wu Xie, nor should Su Ruiying answer it.

  But that word came to Su Ruiying’s mouth involuntarily, “Yes, Chi Yan is in charge of the Knights of Destruction and I am responsible for the souls. Naturally, I don’t need to clean my memory. Furthermore, we have always followed His Lord. Around me, my memory is only His Lord.”


  “Lady Ying, do you remember Ye Jue?” Jun Wu Xie suddenly said.

  Su Ruiying’s eyes suddenly appeared to be struggling. But the struggling disappeared in an instant, the green smoke from the incense with a faint scent lingered before Su Ruiying took another breath and it smoothened the chaos in her heart.

  “Ye Jue? I remember, of course I remember, that is the person who cares most about His Lord.”


  “The person who cares most? What do you know?” Jun Wu Xie continued to ask.

  Su Ruiying’s eyes gradually became dull. She opened her mouth to say everything she knew.

  At this moment, Jun Wu Xie knew how Jun Wu Yao had been tricked.

  Jun Wu Yao did go to the underground palace. In fact, the life and death worm in Jun Wu Yao’s body was planted in the underground palace. At the time, Su Ruiying was also present beside His Lord. She witnessed Jun Wu Yao being planted with the life and death worm.

  In fact, not only Jun Wu Yao, but also Long Yao was cleansed of all memories in the underground palace.

  But Su Ruiying’s words made Jun Wu Xie feel a little puzzled.

  Jun Wu Yao’s memory seems to be blank. He only remembered that he was aware of His Lord’s conspiracy after he got the life and death worm, and then he escaped from the Upper Realm. However, according to Su Ruiying’s statement and Jun Wu Yao’s incomplete memory, His Lord should have seized Jun Wu Yao much earlier. Since he can get the life and death worm on Jun Wu Yao’s body, how could His Lord let Jun Wu Yao escape from the Upper Realm?

  Jun Wu Xie always felt that she had overlooked something, and the timing of the life and death worm in Jun Wu Xie looks a bit strange.

  The room was quiet. Su Ruiying didn’t hear Jun Wu Xie’s inquiry. She just sat on the chair blankly and stared ahead with dull eyes.

  Jun Wu Xie frowned, looking at Jun Wu Yao who was still lying unconscious in bed. Something flashed in her heart, she stood up and whispered in Su Ruiying’s ear. Su Ruiying seemed to be struck by lightning. With this, her dull eyes became clear in an instant and she looked at Jun Wu Xie standing beside her with surprise. Her gazes became a little panicked.

  “It’s nothing, Lady Ying can go back first.” Jun Wu Xie said with a cold face.

  Su Ruiying had some confusion in her mind. She always felt that she had just entered the room and was driven away by Jun Wu Xie before saying anything to her.

  After Su Ruiying left, Jun Wu Xie fell into contemplation.

  After a long time, Jun Wu Yao woke up. Jun Wu Xie quickly told Jun Wu

  Ya what Su Ruiying had said, but Jun Wu Yao was quite shocked.

  “I …… don’t remember anything.” Jun Wu Yao leaned on his forehead. If it weren’t for the fragments of memories that flashed in his mind, he didn’t realize that he had such an experience, at least in his memory. In this regard, this piece could be said to be blank.

  “As for Su Ruiying, let’s not do anything to her for now. Let’s find out more about it first. Now that I know the refinement method of life and death worm, it is better to take a look at this time to study it.” Jun Wu Xie said. The current situation was somewhat beyond their expectations. The lost memory of Jun Wu Yao and how he escaped from the Upper Realm had become a huge mystery.

  Jun Wu Xie vaguely felt that this must be key to this mystery.

  Jun Wu Yao nodded.

  After making this plan, the two never left the room again. In the last two days, Jun Wu Xie silently wrote down the refinement methods of life and death worm. The two studied together for a long time, but they were surprised to find that the refining of this poison was almost impossible.

  Using soul and blood to refine into this poison. It was hard to imagine what kind of person could create this.

  They had initially thought that with the refinement method of life and death worm, they could then solve the life and death worm that resided in Jun Wu Yao. But the more they understood life and death worm, the more Jun Wu Xie felt that the poison was ruthless and difficult to remove.

  Time ticked by and in a blink of an eye, it was time for Jun Wu Xie to see His Lord.

  Su Ruiying seldom took the initiative to knock on Jun Wu Xie’s door. Today, she came over and told Jun Wu Xie that Chi Yan’s carriage had stopped outside and was waiting to pick Jun Wu Xie to see His Lord.

  Jun Wu Xie asked Jun Wu Yao to return to where the rest were first to play it safe. She then boarded the carriage and departed to meet with His Lord.

  The Sacred Palace was the largest and most magnificent building in Sacred City. Jun Wu Xie had seen many Palaces when she was in the Lower Realm. Even the most exquisite Fire Country’s Palace was just one tenth magnificent compared to His Lord’s Sacred Palace.

  In front of the gate of the palace, nearly a hundred soldiers lined up neatly. Their armor shone dazzlingly in the sunlight. They looked at everything with cold eyes, as sharp as swords without emotion.

  The carriage stopped outside the large gate, Jun Wu Xie came down from the carriage and the moment her foot touched the ground, she saw a majestic Chi Yan already standing on the stairs of the hall. He was holding a sword in his waist, his eyes were arrogant and fierce.

  “His Lord is waiting for you.” Chi Yan said coldly, looking at Jun Wu Xie’s eyes without any emotions.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the closed palace door and took a deep breath.

  After that gate, it was His Lord who controlled the sentient beings of the Three Realms. The one who completely played with the Three Realms in the palm of his hands!

  “Lord Chi Yan, please lead the way.” Jun Wu Xie lifted her chin slightly, and said in a humble manner.

  Chi Yan glanced coldly, turned and pushed open the door of the palace. Jun Wu Xie stood behind him, saw the heavy door of the palace, was pushed open a little bit ……

  In the bright hall, someone sat high above the direction of the hall door, sitting alone, lazy and elegant. When Jun Wu Xie saw the face of that man, a slight flash of surprise came to her eyes.

  She had thought about the appearance of such a vicious person, but did not expect ……

  The man sitting in the high position looks extremely young. His handsome and unrestrained face made people unable to find any flaws. That face was like the proudest creation under the heavens. Such a face made people unable to look away. The face that made all women indulge in it, the most deadly, was the light smile on his thin lips, which looked harmless.

  If Jun Wu Xie was not used to Jun Wu Yao’s stunning face, she would most probably be surprised by the handsomeness of this man in front of her. Although the man before her had a remarkable countenance, she was not a single bit impressed by it.

  “Chi Yan meets His Lord.” Chi Yan strode into the hall, kneeling down on a pious knee and lowered his proud head.

  Jun Wu Xie withdrew her eyes quietly and obediently said: “Yan Hai meets His Lord.”


  Sitting on the high position, His Lord was supporting his chin with one hand, showing a gentle smile. His facial features were beautiful and not too sharp. It gave one a gentle feeling. It was hard to imagine such a gentle person turned out to be the leader who controlled life and death in the Upper Realm.

  “You are Yan Hai?” His pleasant voice sounded in the hall, and His Lord’s eyes fell on Jun Wu Xie’s body and looked carefully at her.

  “Yes.” Jun Wu Xie didn’t raise her head.

  “I have heard for a long time that there was an incredible figure in the 72 Cities. From what I see, it’s not mere rumours but I didn’t expect that someone so young would possess such strength.” His Lord smiled as he spoke. His gentle words sounded like the big brother next door.

  “His Lord has overpraised me.” Jun Wu Xie replied lightly.

  “How could it be an overpraise?” His Lord chuckled softly. “Since ancient times, among the Three Realms, other than myself, no one has Dual Spirit Rings. I didn’t think that there would be another. Now that you’ve appeared and within the three realms, only us two wield such power. Tell me, how can our strength be weak? ”


  Jun Wu Xie did not say anything. No matter how gentle the tone of His Lord was, Jun Wu Xie cannot treat him as a harmless one.

  How could a person who seeked the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms be a good person?

  “Alright, you all get up.” His Lord waved his hand and they both stood up.

  “Before they said that there was another Dual Spirit Ring wielder, I didn’t believe it. Later I heard from Long Yao that you showed your strength in the selection of the Top Ten Experts. It was then that I truly believed it. Before that, I was negligent, please don’t mind that.” The gentle tone of His Lord was surprising. But after all that he said, he did not mention why he had not summoned Jun Wu Xie in the first place.

  Jun Wu Xie said quietly, “Lord’s words are too kind.”


  His Lord smiled without hurrying to speak. But Chi Yan’s brow furrowed aside. He seemed to disagree with His Lord’s gentle attitude towards Jun Wu Xie. In the end, he failed to say anything.

  “I have heard a little bit about what happened between you and Long Yao previously. The Upper Realm has always been a place only for the strong. Long Yao lost to you and he only got himself to blame. But ……” His Lord’s words suddenly changed.

  “No matter what, Long Yao was also one of the Knights of Destruction. He died so abruptly and now the tasks that were supposedly left to him are left undone. No one has dealt with it yet. Yan Hai, although I will not hold you accountable for killing Long Yao, he has unfinished matters and you need to settle them.” His Lord looked at Jun Wu Xie and said.

  “I don’t know what it is about?” Jun Wu Xie said indifferently.

  “It’s not a big deal. I was intending to let you over after you became a real Knight of Destruction, but it’s just too late by then.” His Lord paused and said: “I need you to go to a place to help me retrieve a few things. ”


  Retrieve a few things?

  There was a slight flash in Jun Wu Xie’s heart.

  “I have explained to Chi Yan about the specific things. When time comes, he will take you there. As for purging your memories, it will not be too late after you come back.” His Lord said.

  “Yes.” Jun Wu Xie responded.

  “This operation was originally to be handed over to Long Yao and the four of them, but now that Long Yao is dead, Jun Gu’s strength is not yet stable, so you, Chi Yan and Su Ruiying will go to …… There is a slight deficiency, so I have arranged another person to come over.” His Lord’s gaze turned and raised his hand.

  With a clap, a figure came slowly from the other side of the hall.

  When the man’s appearance fell into Jun Wu Xie’s vision, her eyes were slightly stunned.

  The handsome man walked to the center of the hall, kneeling in front of His Lord in front of Jun Wu Xie and Chi Yan.

  “My father.” The man with a smile on his mouth raised his head slightly, but that face was a face that Jun Wu Xie was no longer familiar with.

  Gu Ying!

  The person who appeared in front of Jun Wu Xie turned out to be Gu Ying!

  “Get up.” His Lord said with a smile, “This time to get you back early, there are important things that you need to deal with. You will join Chi Yan for this mission.

  Speaking of which, His Lord paused and his eyes fell on Jun Wu Xie.

  “Yan Hai, this is my son, everyone addresses him as Highness Ying. Ying’er, this is Yan Hai, which Long Yao mentioned before. This time, both of you must walk together. Both of you are of similar age. You can also take care of each other along the way. ”


  Following His Lord’s words, Gu Ying slowly turned around. His seemingly clear eyes and Jun Wu Xie’s cold eyes met.

  But for a moment, Gu Ying smiled and said politely: “Is this Yan Hai? I have long heard about you before the banquet of heroes. I had some matters to attend to, I couldn’t go in person.Quite sorry about it. I never expected that we could see each other today. ”


  The Gu Ying in front of him was gentle and with a sincere smile. If Jun Wu Xie knows what he had done in the Middle Realm and the Lower Realm, it would be difficult to link up the person in front of him with his past.

  “Highness Ying, I have not thanked you for your gift previously. I thank you today.” Jun Wu Xie said calmly.

  Gu Ying smiled.

  “Oh? Ying’er, do you already know Yan Hai?” His Lord raised his eyebrows slightly.

  Gu Ying turned around and said: “Reporting to father, I heard that Sea Spirit City was going to host a banquet of heroes of the 72 Cities, so I sent someone to send some gifts previously.”


  “I wanted to see for myself but didn’t have the chance. I heard since that incident, the 72 Cities has been reduced to nothing at the hands of Yan Hai. I regret that I was not able to witness it with my own eyes.” Gu Ying sighed.

  “I see, that’s no matter, now that Yan Hai has become a Knight of Destruction, he will be staying in the Sacred City and the both of you will have many chances to interact and become familiar.” At this, His Lord smiled, he looked at Jun Wu Xie the way a proud father would look at his child.

  “Ying’er is my only child, and this child has suffered quite a lot of hardship and developed some character quirks. It may be survival of the strong in the Sacred City but there aren’t many people around his age inside. Yan Hai, now that you are staying in the Sacred City, I hope you can find the chance to develop a friendship with him.”


  Jun Wu Xie looked at the expression of the loving father on His Lord and nodded lightly.

  Jun Wu Xie did not know what to make of His Lord, since they met His Lord, he seemed to be normal, not displaying any cruel traits and has even shown concern towards Gu Ying, just like any other father.

  If this were anybody else, Jun Wu Xie would feel there was nothing out of the ordinary.

  But this was His Lord……

  How could a person who toyed with the Three Realms so easily, have such fatherly concern?

  Jun Wu Xie did not believe it, not one bit.

  As she did not know what His Lord was up to, she could only bide her time and not make any moves for now.

  “Alright, I’m here so I’m afraid you can’t go anywhere. I’ve prepared dinner so stay and chat while I take a quick rest. We will eat when I return.” His Lord stood up and smiled as he turned away. As he stepped down from the high chair and walked away slowly, he fixed his gaze to the side and put on a cold looking face.

  “Chi Yan, it’s rare for Ying’er to meet someone of his own age. Don’t just stand there, let’s go to the garden for a walk.”


  Chi Yan was stunned momentarily before saying, “OK.”


  As soon as the words came out of his mouth, his body was already keeping up with His Lord’s.

  After the two departed, only Jun Wu Xie and Gu Ying were left in the hall.

  The hall was dead silent, Jun Wu Xie was rooted to the spot as she was in her own world thinking about His Lord’s potential plans. She did not notice Gu Ying until he stood right in front of her.

  “Highness Ying?” Jun Wu Xie’s expression calmed down as she addressed the person in front of her.

  Gu Ying was in no rush to speak and just looked at Jun Wu Xie from head to toe, as if trying to find something. After a long time, Gu Ying said, “Yan Hai, you look like someone who is both familiar and a stranger all at once.”


  Jun Wu Xie’s heart was stirred but she maintained a poker face, “I wonder who is the person Highness Ying is speaking of?”


  Go Ying smiled slightly, looked past Jun Wu Xie towards the sky outside the hall. He had a meaningful look in his eyes.

  “A woman, a woman I hate to the bone.”


  Jun Wu Xie looked at Gu Ying with a regular expression on her face.

  Gu Ying chuckled, “I’m being rude, I didn’t mean to imply you are a woman, just that that woman is really powerful.” When he finished, Gu Ying looked up in the air, as if he was recalling something.

  “I’ve been defeated by her several times, no matter how I prepared and planned. Although I hate to admit it, she’s the strongest opponent I’ve ever faced. All my failures and defeats have come from her, I hate her to her core, yet I have to say I admire and respect her at the same time. In life, we all face trials and tribulations and encounter many different people, to have an opponent like her makes life worth living.”


  “Is that so? If Highness Ying truly likes to wage battles, then no matter how much you respect an enemy, they are still the enemy and an obstacle to overcome. A true life worth living, is not battling people but to live a peaceful life.” Jun Wu Xie said flatly, not taking any pride from Gu Ying’s words.

  She could not understand what went through the minds of the people who loved to wage war and fight. For her, true happiness came from stability.

  If there was peace on earth, it would not be a loss to give up all her skills.

  Humans were by nature greedy and those who were content were most often happy.

  Jun Wu Xie had been forced down a path full of thorns and it brought her no happiness, only fatigue.

  She hoped for a day when all this was over and she could live a peaceful and quiet life.

  “Lord Yan does not seem to like disputes?” Gu Ying asked with his eyebrows raised.

  Jun Wu Xie responded calmly,”When two people fight, there will always be a winner and a loser. Even though the loser is defeated, the winner also pays a big price for the victory. That desire for winning will never be quenched, isn’t it?”


  This was the first time that Jun Wu Xie and Gu Ying spoke to each other calmly. Every previous meeting between the two always involved a lot of conflict and hostility. After several fights, it was difficult to imagine that the two of them would ever have a calm conversation.

  But such an opportunity was also based on Gu Ying’s ignorance of Jun Wu Xie’s identity.

  If Gu Ying knew that the person standing in front of him was really the woman who he hated so much, even a half smile would not be revealed.

  “Lord Yan has really a good temperament, but it seems unsuitable for this world.” Gu Ying’s eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes flashed an unmistakable chill.

  “You may wish for a quiet life but others may not grant it to you. Sometimes you have to do what is needed, taking you for an example, conquering the 72 Cities, defeating the Top Ten Exponents and killing Long Yao has stained your hands with much blood. In this world, there is nobody who is truly clean, as long as you are alive, you will have to keep fighting, no matter what.”


  Jun Wu Xie spoke no further, she and Gu Ying had a fundamental difference in philosophies and even without the previous conflicts, there would be no chance of them being friends.

  “Ah, I’ve misspoken and indulged in frivolity that is not to City Lord Yan’s interest. I have not yet congratulated you on becoming a Knight of Destruction.” Gu Ying clasped his hands together in a respectful manner.

  “Highness Ying is too kind.” Jun Wu Xie said flatly.

  Gu Ying said with a smile: “This time, Father let us act together, I wonder what Lord Yan has heard?”


  Jun Wu Xie shook her head, “Nothing, I just received the news.”


  “I see, although I don’t know the specifics, I heard my father mention it a few times before, that this time’s plans are related to those lost temples.” Gu Ying said.

  “Lost temples?” Ju Wu Xie cocked her eyebrow, this was really the first time she had heard of it.

  Gu Ying nodded, In the past, there were Gods in the Three Realms. They created the separations between the realms as well as its mountains and rivers but never revealed their true forms. According to legend, in the early days of the Three Realms, the people experienced many miracles and thus had faith in the power of the Gods and built temples to worship them in. The Three Realms then were much more peaceful than they are today and over time, the miracles and signs left by the Gods started to disappear. There are a few special places left that are remnants of that time but as time passes, both their number and strength are reducing.”


  “A long time ago, people were saying that the Gods of the Three Realms had disappeared, leaving nothing and their disappearance was a mystery to all. Father has sent us to find the lost temples that were built on the sites of the first miracles. These sites have been lost to landslides and earthquakes.” Gu Ying continued narrating this little known bit of history to Jun Wu Xie.

  Nobody knew if the Gods of the Three realms really existed, it was tens of thousands of years ago and nothing could be verified. Furthermore, stories of the Gods were being told less and less. In the Three Realms, its inhabitants didn’t recognise any Gods and the stories that were being told were about His Lord.

  “How are we supposed to find them if they have disappeared so long ago?” Jun Wu Xie felt something very odd about His Lord’s plan. And the stories about the Gods and the lost temples seemed too far fetched to be true.

  Gu Ying shrugged, ” I don’t know, all the main leads have been given to Chi Yan. He is in charge of this operation. Although I am my father’s son, I’m just following orders, no different from you.”


  Gu Ying paused, and then said again: “However, since three Knights of Destruction were mobilized at the same time, I think my information is accurate. I really want to see if the forgotten history is true, did the Gods really exist? ”


  Jun Wu Xie looked at Gu Ying without saying anything. She was not familiar with Gu Ying, yet Gu Ying said so much in front of her, he was such a fool. Jun Wu Xie could also feel Gu Ying’s intention to win her over .

  Jun Wu Xie who had just been promoted to the position of Knight of Destruction was obliged to follow His Lord’s plans yet His Lord’s own son was trying to win over as his new subordinate. How interesting.

  “Lord Yan, aren’t you curious?” Gu Ying asked in a somewhat flippant manner.

  Objectively speaking, Gu Ying was very good looking, especially if one was meeting him for the first time. However his looks were deceiving as anyone looking at him would assume he had a pure, simple heart.

  However, Jun Wu Xie, who knew all too well his true, violent nature, could not associate any kind characteristics with him.

  Upon careful inspection, Jun Wu Xie realised Gu Ying and His Lord looked similar. The difference was the Gu Ying looked brasher and had more vigour while the Lord looked more elegant and understated. There were similarities between them but you had to look closely to see them.

  But there was one big similarity between them.

  And that was……

  They were both perfect pretenders.

  Both of them have managed to conceal just how cruel and greedy they were.

  Jun Wu Xie could not help but think of Zi Jin, the sweet innocent girl who was bewitched by Gu Ying. It was only after many years that Jun Wu Xie found out that the girl who was always wearing a mask and died for her was Zi Jin.

  Looking at Gu Ying, all Jun Wu Xie could think of was the terrible things he did in the Lower and Middle Realms. No matter how good looking he was, it was just the skin that a monster was wearing.

  “As a subordinate, I just need to obey, and I don’t need to have any curiosity.” Jun Wu Xie responded carefully. She had not yet ascertained the relationship between Gu Ying and His Lord. At this time, maintaining stability was key.

  Gu Ying chuckled softly, and his response to Jun Wu Xie’s glance seemed very funny.

  “Looks like my father has found himself a good subordinate.” Gu Ying laughed disappointedly.

  Gu Ying did not know how to respond to Jun Wu Xie’s statement and the two of them stood in silence in the hall until His Lord sent someone to fetch them for the banquet.

  It was supposed to be a banquet but the atmosphere was very subdued. Chi Yan’s expression was unwavering, Gu Ying was quiet and obedient and Jun Wu Xie was never much of a talker. Only His Lord spoke from time to time.

  The whole meal was devoid of taste.

  After the banquet ended, the crowd dispersed, and Jun Wu Xie left the depressing hall and returned to her residence.

  In the dark of night, Chi Yan stood in the huge hall and looked at the man who sat above him in the high position.

  “My Lord, Yan Hai has not completely become a Knight of Destruction. Letting him go on this mission seems…… inappropriate? Your subordinate is not questioning your decision, but …… your subordinate is a little worried, Yan Hai seems to be peaceful, but his temperament is explosive. He dealt with Long Yao without any warning, and earlier, when dealing with the 72 Cities and the Top Ten Exponents, he was extremely fierce. If he had his own designs, I am afraid that he would not be easy to control.” Chi Yan frowned, he could see that His Lord favoured Jun Wu Xie, but it made Chi Yan feel uneasy.

  Jun Wu Xie’s temperament gave Chi Yan cause for worry, he felt that he was not as easy to control as Long Yao and the others.

  His Lord sat with his chin in one hand, looking at Chi Yan who was kneeling in front of him. He lifted the corner of his mouth that was barely a smile that concealed his anger and asked Chi Yan casually, “What do you think of Yan Hai?”


  Chi Yan frowned slightly and hesitated for a moment before saying: “Yan Hai is very strong and emotionally very mature, completely unlike someone of his age. If harnessed well, such a person can be a great asset and will make us more powerful. However his violent streak makes him also very unstable. Your subordinate really hopes that he can be cleansed before participating in this operation. After all …… This operation is of great importance to His Lord, and your subordinate is not willing to disappoint you after so many years of planning. ”


  The Lord chuckled softly, and his slender, beautiful fingers tapped rhythmically on the handle.

  “Yan Hai is very smart and powerful and to have achieved that at his age is no accident. Your concerns are clear to me, and I understand your loyalty. But, Chi Yan, I obviously have my reasons for wanting you to set off as soon as possible and for Yan Hai to be on the operation.”


  His Lord’s eyes narrowed and the smile disappeared from his face, “He and Ying’er must look for the lost temples together, they are the only ones that can find them. Do you understand?”


  Chi Yan froze for a moment before a stunned expression came over his face.

  The Lord leaned against the back of the chair, he crossed his legs.

  “I have my own reasons for doing so, I just need you to watch over them.”


  “But your subordinate cannot guarantee that I can control Yan Hai’s power and as for Highness Ying……” Chi Yan’s eyebrows furrowed, he had complicated feelings towards Gu Ying.

  Being His Lord’s son, Gu Ying enjoyed special treatment and even the Knights of Destruction had to give him a wide berth when they encountered him. But to Chi Yan, he did not regard Gu Ying as his master, he saw in Gu Ying’s eyes the same wild ambition that he once saw in Long Yao’s.

  It was just that Gu Ying hid that ambition more thoroughly, and Gu Ying was smarter and more cunning.

  “You don’t need to worry about that, I will have a way to deal with it. The only thing you need to remember is that when the lost temples are found, only the two of them are to enter. You and Ruiying cannot even place half a foot inside.” His Lord said gravely.

  Chi Yan didn’t understand His Lord’s plan, but out of loyalty to His Lord, he agreed.

  “Alright, it’s getting late, you should go back and get ready. Leave as soon as possible, don’t waste time.” His Lord said as he waved Chi Yan away.

  Chi Yan immediately excused himself.

  After Chi Yan left, a figure appeared in the hall. The man had white hair despite a very young and handsome appearance, but his eyes were those of someone who had gone through deep suffering.

  “Your grace, your wish will soon be fulfilled.” That man knelt down before His Lord in a gesture so reverential that it even exceeded Chi Yan’s.

  If Chi Yan had not left, he would have known that the man next to His Lord was Feng Ming, the most Divine Doctor of the Three Realms.

  Feng Ming was extremely skilled in medicine, but he is the exclusive doctor of His Lord and rarely treats others. Although his strength was not high, Chi Yan and others needed to be polite when they saw him because he had the trust of His Lord.

  The Lord looked at the prostrating Fen Ming and smiled, “Will it be quick? I’ve lost count of how long I’ve been waiting for that day.”


  “Your subordinate believes that that day will come soon, and your wish will be fulfilled.” Feng Ming’s said sincerely, but his tone suddenly changed, “Chi Yan’s loyalty to you is undoubted, but your Highness doesn’t seem to be too convinced of mine. ”


  “Oh? What do you mean?” His Lord spoke lightly and did not seem to be surprised by Feng Ming’s words.

  Feng Ming said, “Earlier when Chi Yan left, Highness Ying and Yan Hai spoke for a long time, I just felt like he was trying to win Yan Hai over. Moreover, Yan Hai has not yet been cleansed……”


  “I know what you mean. He is my child after all so his ego and his temperament would naturally be similar to mine. No matter how humble and obedient he appears normally, his ambition has never disappeared.” His Lord laughed as if he did not care about Gu Ying’s growing ambition.

  “If he were not like that, could he really be considered my child? Regarding Yan Hai, you should know full well that even if I sent him to Ying’er, Ying’er would not have the ability to cleanse him, just like Ye Jue all those years ago.” The Lord seemed to be thinking of something that made his eyes twinkle with laughter.

  “It is just a short memory that needs to be blocked off, it makes no real difference in the end. The window of opportunity is now, if we miss it, who knows how long we’ll have to wait for the next one? Besides, the Dual Gods have gathered, how can I let this slip?”


  After being stunned momentarily, Feng Ming said, “Your subordinate has been shortsighted, your Highness will naturally control everything in the Three Realms.”


  “Everything in the Three Realms …… haha …… I’m not interested in these trivial things. They were able to leave, why can’t I? I’m really fed up with this meaningless and weak world.” His eyes suddenly became sharper, and a golden stream of light flashed through his eyes!

  “It won’t take long, it won’t take long …… in a while, I can leave and stay away from this world that makes me sick, ha ha ha ha ……”


  His creepy laughter echoed in the hall, but Feng Ming kneeling in the hall only had a look of respect and worship. He looked up quietly in absolute faith……

  Jun Wu Xie told Jun Wu Yao and the rest what she had heard from Gu Ying immediately after returning to her residence.

  After hearing Jun Wu Xie’s words, Jun Wu Yao looked troubled.

  “Lost Temples? Brother Wu Yao, have you heard of that?” Qiao Chu looked towards Jun Wu Yao.

  Jun Wu Yao shook his head, “I haven’t been in this world for too long and have never heard about anything from tens of thousands of years ago.”


  Hua Yao and the rest also knew nothing.

  “Could it be that Gu Ying has discovered something and told Little Xie those things to test her?” Qiao Chu speculated.

  If it were not for Gu Ying’s ruthlessness, Fan Zhuo’s adoptive father would not have died.

  “I do think that Gu Ying’s words may be true.” Puppet Rong Ruo stood up on the table. After being retrieved by Jun Wu Xie, Jun Wu Yao used a drop of his blood every day to stabilize his soul. As a result, Rong Ruo’s soul was becoming more and more stable, but he was still unable to get rid of this body for a while.

  “Little Ruo, why do you say that?” Fei Yan asked out of curiosity.

  Rong Ruo hesitated before saying, “This mission has been personally organised by His Lord and starts in just a few days. We will know his true intentions soon enough. There simply isn’t enough time for Gu Ying to benefit from lying. From our past encounters with Gu Ying we know he’s no fool. So if he’s willing to say what he did, I’m quite sure it is true.”


  “Don’t tell me those Gods really……existed?” Qiao Chu had doubt written all over his face. He always felt that belief in those things were used as a crutch by weak minded people.

  “The Gods did exist, it is just not known if there were any here.” Jun Wu Yao said out of nowhere.

  Qiao Chu and the rest looked at Jun Wu Yao in surprise, not knowing how he knew that.

  But Jun Wu Yao himself was very clear.

  How long ago was it that the Spirit Tree gave the two of them those dreams?

  The Spirit Tree had said those strange images were real but they were not of this world. Jun Wu Xie herself had transmigrated here, and could naturally understand such matters.

  If in a previous world, there were Gods, there might have once been Gods in this world too.

  “Putting aside whether or not the Gods existed, His Lord’s objective is clear. I just can’t see why he wants to find the lost temples so urgently or what he hopes to find inside.” Jun Wu Xie said pensively. His Lord’s every move was related to the Blood Sacrifice Array of the Three Realms. However by mobilising three Knights of Destruction and Gu Ying, it seemed to be overkill.

  If one were to say that the lost temples were not important to the Lord, Jun Wu Xie would never believe it even if she were beaten to death.

  Nobody could answer Jun Wu Xie’s question as they all had the same question in the minds.

  After thinking about it, Jun Wu Yao decided to set off on the mission with Jun Wu Xie disguised as her servant. As Qiao Chu and the rest had made good recoveries and their absorptions of the Spirit Rings had stabilized, Jun Wu Xie asked them to remain in the Holy City to take care of her parents.

  His Lord had not involved Jun Gu in this mission and it made Jun Wu Xie uneasy, so she had to prepare for all eventualities. Jun Wu Yao had also sent a message to the Sea Spirit City to parepare some troops to storm the Sacred City when the opportunity presented itself.

  After everything had been prepared, Jun Wu Xie inspected her companions’ injuries once more and was satisfied with their recoveries. She also left some medicine with Hua Yao and even left Little Lotus’ Spirit Rings with them as a last insurance policy.

  In the following days, whether it was His Lord, Gu Ying or Chi Yan, all of them never sent for Jun Wu Xie. But after Nangong Lie got the news, he came a few times and was quite worried.

  Also, by this time, a new batch of Top Ten Exponents had been minted. Jun Wu Yao had allowed Bai Mo to participate in the selection, but Bai Mo decided not to. During this time, he was either practicing or taking care of Fan Zhuo, but it put Fan Zhuo at a loss of what to do.

  When it was time to leave, Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao met Chi Yan and the rest at the agreed location. When they arrived, there were throngs of people at the city gate.

  Whether it was by coincidence or not, Chi Yan, Su Rui Ying and Gu Ying each brought along someone, which made Jun Wu Yao’s presence seem not out of the ordinary.

  Su Rui Ying had brought along the ghoul masked man whom Jun Wu Xie had met previously. That man, even when standing in the morning light, still gave people a creepy feeling. He did not look people in the eyes but instead just looked at them quickly before retracting his gaze.

  It was the person standing next to Gu Ying that surprised Jun Wu Xie.

  Standing next to Gu Ying was a beautiful woman. She was looking at Jun Wu Xie as she approached but hurriedly looked away when Jun Wu Xie made eye contact. She was beautiful but seemed devoid of life and stood like a giant puppet next to Gu Ying.

  The wooden expression on her face contrasted sharply with the smile on Gu Ying’s face.

  Gu Ying broke into a smile when he saw Jun Wu Xie approach but the woman next to him remained motionless.

  “Lord Yan, you are the last one to arrive.” Bathed in the morning light and with a beaming smile on his face, Gu Ying looked almost angelic. The familiar tone he used would make a casual observer think they had known each other for many years before that day.

  Jun Wu Xie gave Gu Ying a passive look and the nonplussed reaction created a sharp contrast to Gu Ying’s enthusiasm.

  The plainly dressed man next to Chi Yan had been staring unblinkingly at Jun Wu Xie since she arrived, not seeming to care if anybody noticed. He seemed to harbour great animosity towards Jun Wu Xie.

  “Lord Chi Yan, is that young man the newly appointed Knight of Destruction?” the man asked Chi Yan in a whispering tone.

  Chi Yan looked at Jun Wu Xie and gave a slight nod of his head.

  “It is quite unbelievable that he is able to have Dual Spirit Rings at such a young age. I have investigated what you instructed me to previously and although I still don’t have a definite answer, there are some results.” the man reported softly. He was Chi Yan’s top bodyguard whose power was advanced but in a place like the Sacred City where top masters were abound, he could never be more than that.

  But nobody would have expected that Chi Yan, leader of the Knights of Destruction, would rely on such a man and even treated him as a confidant in whom he confided his troubles.

  The man’s name was Qin Qi and he was once the deputy City Lord of one of the 72 Cities. However he made some mistakes and was on the run from the City Lord. While on the run he met Chi Yan, gained his favour and started serving him ever since.

  Even though His Lord had given them an important mission, Chi Yan still decided to bring Qin Qi along.

  His strength was quite low so there was no reason for his presence other than Qin Qi having an information network that could bring him news from all over the Three Realms.

  When the Lord made Jun Wu Xie part of the mission, Chi Yan immediately got Qin Qi to find out about Jun Wu Xie’s past. Although much had been said about her, being in the exalted position that she was in, Chi Yan never bothered listening to stories about a young person fresh out of Sea Spirit City.

  After knowing that Jun Wu Xie was to become a Knight of Destruction, Chi Yan thought that she would go through a cleansing, erasing her past. Once that was complete, she would become as loyal as a dog, no matter what kind of person she once was.

  But the Lord’s sudden decision surprised Chi Yan and turned what he knew upside down.

  Chi Yan did not have the ambitions of Long Yao, but he would not allow anyone who might threaten His Lord’s success.

  Chi Yan was clear as to what Long Yao’s ambitions were but Long Yao was no match for even Chi Yan, much less His Lord! So Chi Yan just let him be.

  However Jun Wu Xie was different, her power was unbelievable and surpassed anything that had ever been seen in the Three Realms. There was no way Chi Yan could relax when it came to a person like that.

  “Ah? What have you found?” Chi Yan asked.

  Qin Qi whispered, “Yan Hai is not the first son of the Sea Spirit City Lord, there were a few sons before him but they were killed as babies due to their great innate talent. Yan Hai was lucky to survive as he was deemed just ordinary.”


  “Ah? Seems like his father is a ruthless man, but why did he let Yan Hai live? After all, killing one more makes no difference after killing so many. Ordinary? I would not call someone who has Dual Spirit Rings ordinary.” Chi Yan replied gravely.

  Qin Qi went on, “Yan Hai didn’t show any great strength at first but started to transform after his first sea voyage. It seems he discovered a recipe to create an elixir that greatly enhanced his strength after he took it. After that, he even managed to increase the strength of the entire Sea Spirit City.”


  “An elixir that can transform an ordinary person into someone who can have Dual Spirit Rings? Can you get one for me?” Chi Yan was skeptical about Qin QI’s claims but was sure that Qin Qi would not lie to him. The problem had to be with Jun Wu Xie.

  “The Sea Spirit City’s borders are tightly guarded and its people are fiercely protective of the elixir and thus your subordinate has not been able to get it yet. My sources tell me that people from other cities have tried out the elixir and managed to test it to great effect.” Qin Qi said cautiously.

  Chi Yan didn’t speak, but his sharp gaze turned towards Jun Wu Xie, scrutinizing her closely.

  Jun Wu Xie noticed Chi Yan’s gaze but pretended not to notice and just stood beside Jun Wu Yao with a calm expression on her face.

  After a moment’s silence, Chi Yan said to Qin Qi, “Continue checking, best if you can find the recipe or what happened to Yan Hai in the Sea of Death. You must get to the bottom of both these things. I will not allow anyone with ulterior motives to be by the Lord’s side.”


  “Yes!”


  Chi Yan nodded slightly and after looking at the weather, announced to everyone, “Since we are all here, let’s set off now.”


  After speaking, Chi Yan started walking towards his carriage without giving any further instruction or explanation. Just as he was about to enter, Gu Ying cried out, “Lord Chi Yan, you still have not told us where we are going.”


  Chi Yan stopped and turned to look at Gu Ying. He then proceeded to speak in a tone so cold it would have frozen lava.

  “Highness Ying, His Lord’s orders are for me to lead the mission, so all of you just need to follow my lead. When we get there, I will tell you what needs to be done next.”


  Chi Yan’s tone was not courteous and could be considered rude, even. What was more, Chi Yan did not care at all and this did not go unnoticed by Gu Ying.

  Gu Ying replied with a slight smile, “So Lord Chi Yan is not going to give us some time to prepare?”


  Chi Yan replied, “There is no need for that.” With that he got into his carriage, not giving Gu Ying any time to reply.

  Su Ruiying looked at Jun Wu Xie and Gu Ying before getting into her carriage. She had been particularly quiet.

  Only Jun Wu Xie, Gu Ying and their companions were left outside the city walls.

  Gu Ying shrugged his shoulders and looked at Jun Wu Xie haplessly, “It seems that the two of us are not welcomed.”


  Jun Wu Xie looked at him blankly and got into the carriage. After boarding the carriage, Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yie sat opposite each other. After a while, the carriage started to move and they officially embarked on the journey.

  However, nobody knew what was going to be the mission’s outcome.

  In the carriage, Jun Wu Xie was looking at the scenery along the road outside the window. The carriage was specially arranged by Chi Yan. The horses pulling the carriage were extremely fast, and the scenery on both sides of the road became a blur.

  “Gu Ying’s situation is almost what we expected.” Jun Wu Yao said.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded, “I see it too, Chi Yan and the rest don’t seem to have much respect for Gu Ying. Also I’ve always found it strange that Gu Ying returned to His Lord. In a place like the Three Realms there seems to be no place for a love between father and son. How can a person thinking of the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms, think of finding his son at this time? ”


  Jun Wu Xie pondered it. Gu Ying had been in the Blood Fiend Palace for quite a while and she had heard a lot about the abuse Gu Ying suffered at the hands of his adoptive father.

  It could be said that Gu Ying was living a fate worse than death but His Lord did not take him back earlier.

  If he really cared for his son, why would His Lord let Gu Ying suffer so much in the Blood Fiend Palace?

  But if he did not care, why would he get Gu Ying back and announce to the world that he was his son?

  The intentions of His Lord were hard to grasp, but Jun Wu Xie felt that Gu Ying’s return must be related to the Lord’s plan for the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms.

  Moreover, Gu Ying might have already been aware of that connection, which explained why he was trying to win Jun Wu Xie over the first time they met.

  In fact, if one thought about it carefully, that may not have been the first time Gu Ying tried to win Jun Wu Xie over. At the Banquet of Heroes, Gu Ying had sent gifts to the Sea Spirit City. Perhaps from that time, Gu Ying was already setting a secret plan in motion.

  “If what Gu Ying said is true, then isn’t His Lord making life difficult for him by sending him on this mission but only telling Chi Yan the details knowing full well that Chi Yan does not respect Gu Ying?” At this, Little Black suddenly appeared from Jun Wu Xie’s body and proceeded to set itself on Jun Wu Xie’s lap and rub its furry claws on her.

  “His Lord may not actually care for his son at all or have very specific reasons for bringing him to his side and has given him his current status to lull him into a sense of security.” Jun Wu Yao said thoughtfully.

  “If this was true, then he would need Gu Ying to go voluntarily. If His Lord wanted to capture and force him into submission, then based on Gu Ying’s level of strength, sending Chi Yan or one of the others would have been more than enough.” Jun Wu Xie continued Jun Wu Yao’s train of thought, feeling like they were on to something.

  “You mean Gu Ying wants to win Mistress for his own survival?” Little Black blinked its eyes, not believing that the same Gu Yin who mercilessly slaughtered countless people in the Lower and Middle Three Realms was now asking for help.

  “That’s very possible.” Jun Wu Xie nodded her head.

  Gu Ying was no fool and knew he was no match for His Lord. If he discovered something, he would find a way to get out of trouble instead of confronting His Lord head on.

  Jun Wu Xie’s appearance was his best chance.

  In this world, Jun Wu Xie was the only other person with Dual Spirit Rings and said to be the only one who had strength equal to the Lord.

  “We don’t need to think too much about this. It will be a long journey and Gu Ying will definitely find opportunities to get close to you.” Jun Wu Yao said to Jun Wu XIe.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded, although she had some reservations.

  She had fought with Gu Ying several times and had resolved most of her hatred towards him. But as he had killed Rong Ruo’s adoptive father, they could never become allies.

  However, would previous bad blood fall to the wayside when faced with a common, more powerful enemy? Nobody knew.

  The discussion between Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao came to an end. Su Ruiying on the other hand, sat silently in her carriage with a troubled look on her face. Other than the ghoul masked man, she had a red mahogany box with her in the carriage.

  Su Ruiying placed the box on her lap and started to rearrange its contents with both hands. She was constantly looking into the box, with her lips pursed and tension written all over her face.

  “Lady Ying? Is there anything wrong? You’ve been acting strangely these few days.” The ghoul masked man asked with trepidation.

  Su Ruiying shook her head, “I don’t know what’s wrong, I just have a feeling something terrible is going to happen.”


  “Is it because of this mission? With Lord Chi Yan at the helm, I’m sure there will be no problem. His Lord must be very confident to make such a decision.” the ghoul masked man tried to reassure her.

  Su Ruiying was not comforted and continued to look at the box, “You don’t understand, I can’t put this feeling in words. Oh yes, before when Yan Hai was in my residence, didn’t he ask me to take a look at his servant because he was sick? After that I had a strange feeling, as if I had forgotten something.”


  This was troubling Su Ruiying greatly, she felt like she had spent a good amount of time in Jun Wu Xie’s room but did not remember much.

  “I’m afraid Lady Ying might be overthinking things, I don’t remember you spending much time in the room so there shouldn’t be a problem. Did what Yan Hai do to Lord Long Yao cause you to be anxious around him?” the ghoul masked man asked.

  “I’m unclear myself, that could be it.” Su Ruiying heaved a sigh, her eyes not leaving the mahogany box.

  The ghoul masked man saw what she was looking at and said in a gentle tone, “This box has been with you for many years and you still keep it.”


  Su Ruiying’s was a little uneasy and said casually: “I don’t know why but as long as I hold it, I feel very at ease, perhaps because of the things inside it.

  The ghoul masked man remained silent. In fact, the box’s contents changed frequently, with only the box itself remaining constant. The box was old and had previously been damaged many times and it was only with several repairs that it was able to last that long.

  “I’m quite indifferent to Yan Hai for now. Regarding this mission, I am quite afraid. Highness Ying and the Knights of Destruction have never had a good relationship and Chi Yan was quite rude to him earlier. I don’t understand why His Lord sent Highness Ying on this mission, not to mention Yan Hai who hasn’t been cleansed. With Chi Yan’s personality, I fear there will be much trouble. And he had to bring that troublemaker Qin Qi along, who knows how such a frivolous man managed to earn Chi Yan’s trust?!” Su Ruiying frowned but some colour had returned to her face. She detested Qin Qi, a man who did not dare to look people in the eyes always made her suspicious.

  “Lady Ying doesn’t need to bother with all that, we are only following orders and just need to listen to Lord Chi Yan’s instructions. If there really are issues, it will be between Lord Chi Yan and Highness Ying and have nothing to do with us.” the ghoul masked man sensed something was wrong with Su Ruiying and could only try to comfort her.

  “That’s true. Even if the sky were to fall, Chi Yan will be there to hold it up. What do I have to worry about?” Su Ruiying said as if to try and comfort herself.

  They travelled continuously for two days and only stopped on the third day for a rest when the horses collapsed from exhaustion.

  Although the carriage stopped, Chi Yan did not get out and only Qin Qi emerged from the carriage.

  Gu Xin Yan still had the same blank expression on her face while the ghoul masked man went to get washed up. They had stopped by the edge of a forest and it was easy to get water and start a fire. Before long, there was a campfire burning.

  Jun Wu Xie and the rest were gathered around the fire, eating the provisions they each had brought.

  It was a time for socialising yet there was tension in the air. The only one with a smile on his face was Gu Ying.

  Su Ruiying held on to her mahogany box and looked frightening as her face was framed by the light from the fire. She lifted her head but dared not to look at Jun Wu Xie, instead she was staring at the person next to Gu Ying, Gu Xin Yan.

  “Highness Ying, this is……” Perhaps Su Ruiying could not bear the depressing atmosphere and decided to break the ice.

  In fact, there were many rumours about the girl next to Gu Ying. She appeared not long after Gu Ying’s return and always seemed to be by his side. Gu Ying took great care of her but she seemed to be quite cold in return, rarely speaking to him and never once smiling.

  Yet Gu Ying never lost his temper.

  Gu Ying looked at Gu Xin Yan and his smile intensified. He looked at the flames and his feelings seemed to be stoked by them.

  “In my life, I only remember three women, Xin Yan being one of them. She has treated me the best out of anyone so I naturally should repay her.” Gu Ying was smiling but his words felt very unnatural to everyone.

  Gu Xin Yan’s face was expressionless, as if Gu Ying was talking about someone else altogether.

  “Is that so……” Su Ruiying’s mouth twitched. Although Gu Ying had been sincere, she felt embarrassed for some reason and from Gu Xin Yan’s expression, she was totally unmoved as well.

  “What are the Lords talking about? Qin Qi appeared just as they were all thinking about returning to their carriages.

  Truthfully, although Qin Qi’s looks were not outstanding, he could still be considered relatively good looking. It was just the way he looked at people that made them uncomfortable.

  Su Ruiying did not like him but since he was Chi Yan’s man, she had to keep her opinions to herself.

  The ghoul masked man knew of Su Ruiying’s feelings but did not want Qin Qi to speak nonsense to Chi Yan so he stepped in, “Nothing much, just casual chit chat. Does Lord Qin want to eat something?”


  “Good timing, I’m hungry.” Qin Qi sat down next to the campfire without hesitation but from the moment he sat down, his eyes were fixed on Jun Wu Xie.

  The ghoul masked man did not say anything and just took out some food to eat with Qin Qi.

  From the time Qin Qi sat down, his eyes never left Jun Wu Xie, no matter what he did and he made no attempt to conceal his actions.

  Jun Wu Xie had long noticed Qin Qi staring at her but pretended not to notice.

  “You are Qin Qi?” Gu Ying suddenly asked.

  At this Qin Qi finally tore his gaze away from Jun Wu Xie and looked at Gu Ying before replying respectfully, “Yes Highness Ying, I am your subject Qin Qi.”


  “Why were you staring at Lord Yan?” With that one sentence, Gu Ying exacerbated an already awkward situation.

  Su Ruiying almost choked on her food when she heard this. Although Gu Ying was not wrong, his statement was a bit too straightforward.

  Qin Qi did not see anything out of the ordinary about his interest in Jun Wu Xie and said openly, “Because your subject is curious.”


  “Curious?” Gu Ying raised his eyebrows.

  “Yes, Lord Yan is from the Sea Spirit City, one of the72 Cities. I come from a city not far from there and am familiar with the Sea Spirit City. I’m just curious how an average place like that could produce such an extraordinarily strong person, in addition to the fact that he is so young.” Qin Qi said openly, in stark contrast to the impression he gave people.

  “Lord Yan, since there is nothing much else to do tonight, why don’t you tell us? I heard you got much stronger after your first trip at sea, did something happen on the trip to cause your strength to increase exponentially?” Why don’t you tell us to kill some time?” Qin Qi said with a smile in a casual, chatty tone.

  Su Ruiying didn’t dare make a sound. Qin Qi’s question sounded lighthearted but it was by no means so. It was obviously an attempt to find the origins of Jun Wu Xie’s strength and such matters were taboo to discuss. Qin Qi was no fool, why would he ask such a question in public?

  Su Ruiying could not determine if Qin Qi was doing this on his own accord or if Chi Yan had put him up to it. Nevertheless, in the spirit of self preservation, she pretended not to hear anything.

  Jun Wu Xie raised her head in the firelight, and her clear eyes focussed on the firelight.

  “What are you?” The coldness in the voice enveloped everyone there like an icy gust of wind.

  Qin Qi was stunned, he did not expect such a response. After recovering, he put on a smile and said, “I’ve overstepped, I am Qin Qi, Lord Chi Yan’s subordinate.”


  “In what way are you qualified to ask me that?” Jun Wu Xie’s eyes narrowed, the chill once again returning to her voice.

  Qin Qi could not maintain that smile much longer. As Chi Yan’s confidante, he had gained the respect of many despite his lack of strength and in Sacred City, not many people dared to disrespect him.

  Was it not the case with Su Ruiying, who tolerated him out of respect for Chi Yan?

  But with those two sentences, Jun Wu Xie thoroughly disrespected him, leaving him no place to hide.

  Qin Qi continued to plaster on that smile and said, “Lord Yan does not need to be so angry, I was just asking casually. Since you will be by His Lord’s side, in a highly enviable position, I just wanted to hear of your past glories and achievements.”


  “All those who have witnessed those glories are dead, you can go ask them.” Jun Wu Xie fired back coldly. She knew what Qin Qi was trying to do and had no interest in trading blows with a peon.

  Qin Qi went completely white, he had never imagined Jun Wu Xie to be so cold and hard. He was under the impression that no matter what, she had to give Chi Yan some face. After all, she was a newly minted Knight of Destruction and needed Chi Yan’s help to gain His Lord’s trust even more.

  In the end……

  Not only did Jun Wu Xie not give any face, she completely embarrassed Qin Qi. Even someone as thick-skinned as Qin Qi could not bear it anymore.

  “Ah, I’m a little sleepy and will be going back to my carriage to rest.” Sensing a bad situation, Su Ruiying made an excuse to leave.

  She was afraid of Jun Wu Xie and even more afraid of Chi Yan and so had no interest in participating in any conflict between the two.

  “Lord Yan has a good sense of humour……” Qin Qi laughed dryly but his eyes betrayed a venomous look. “Since Lord Yan has no interest in this, I will not bother you further.”


  After that, Qin Qi rose and walked directly towards Chi Yan’s carriage.

  After Qin Qi had gone, Gu Ying spoke.

  “Lord Yan does not seem to like Qin Qi?”


  Jun Wu Xie looked at Gu Ying, keeping silent.

  “However, if I were in your shoes, I wouldn’t have been so harsh with him. Qin Qi is not strong but he only dared to ask you that because he was directed to do so by Chi Yan. Chi Yan is already suspicious of you and treating Qin Qi like that could lead to more conflict in the future.” Gu Ying just wanted to state his opinion, not caring whether Jun Wu Xie replied to him.

  Jun Wu Xie replied, “Instead of caring so much about me, perhaps Highness Ying should think more about your own situation.”


  The smile on Gu Ying’s face faded in an instant, and he looked at Jun Wu Xie differently.

  “What does Lord Yan mean by that?”


  “Highness Ying knows what I mean.” Jun Wu Xie got up and returned to her carriage with Jun Wu Yao without waiting for a reply.

  Gu Ying and Gu XIn Yan were the only two people left by the campfire.

  The smile on Gu Ying’s face had completely disappeared and his eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the campfire in front of him.

  His situation……

  If he could understand, why would he be here?

  Back in the carriage, Jun Wu Yao reached out and held Jun Wu Xie in his arms, using the warmth of his body to disperse the night’s coldness.

  “You’re testing Gu Ying?” Jun Qu Yao whispered.

  “Tonight, except Su Ruiying, who is not testing boundaries?” Jun Wu Xie said lightly.

  Jun Wu Yao chuckled and kissed Jun Wu Xie on the head, “Go to sleep.”


  “Ok.”


  Under the cover of dark, everyone in the carriages had things troubling them.

  Early next morning, the four carriages set off. Chi Yan seemed to be in a great hurry and did not want to waste even a second. Fortunately everyone was still strong and was not affected by the long journey.

  Except Gu Xin Yan, who was the weakest and the turbulence made her face pale.

  Chi Yan naturally did not care if she lived or died but what was surprising was that Gu Ying made no attempt to ask Chi Yan to slow down but instead just gave her some medicine to settle her discomfort.

  As they got further from Sacred City, Jun Wu Xie had noticed that the path they were taking was in the completely opposite direction of the 72 Cities. This road was sparsely populated and there were some dense forests earlier on. After that, there were mostly rugged mountain roads and valleys all over the gravel. There was no other single person around, not even the shadow of a bird.

  If it wasn’t Chi Yan leading the way, Jun Wu Xie would find it hard to imagine that in the Upper Realm, there existed such a desolate place. Even Jun Wu Yao had never been here before. At first, Jun Wu Yao only appeared nearby and found this place. There was nowhere else to go further, so he didn’t proceed on.

  On the last day of the first month after departure, Jun Wu Xie’s carriage was parked under a towering mountain, which was extremely high and steep, even the trained horses could not move forward on such a steep mountain.

  Chi Yan made everyone get off the carriage and prepare for it. They talked about walking up the tall mountain.

  Jun Wu Xie stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up at the towering peaks. In the Upper Realm, there had always been a rumor that the Holy Mountain where the Sacred Maiden Tribe lived was the highest peak in the Upper Realm. But the Holy Mountain seemed so small compared to this big mountain. Such a behemoth was taller than any high mountain that Jun Wu Xie had seen in her previous life. At a glance, she could not see the peaks hidden in the clouds, as if they were in them. What was displayed in front of her was just the tip of the iceberg.

  At the command of Chi Yan, the crowd got out of the carriage and stood at the foot of the mountain looking at the high mountain before them.

  “Chi Yan, this mountain ……” Su Ruiying also froze when she saw the high mountain. Obviously, before today, she didn’t even know of its existence here.

  Such a high mountain seemed to have been forgotten by all the people in the Upper Realm. To reach it, one had to pass through the wilderness, crossed the mountains and it was hidden in the clouds. Standing at the foot of the mountain, everyone seemed so insignificant.

  Chi Yan looked up at the mountain and finally opened his mouth. This was the first time he had spoken with the crowd since he set off.

  The moment when the cold voice sounded, it also revealed the purpose of their trip.

  “This mountain is the destination we are about to climb, and what the Lord is looking for is on the top of this mountain.”


  “His Lord …… what exactly is he looking for? This mountain, haven’t you heard of it before?” Su Ruiying didn’t understand at all. She asked herself deeply about His Lord’s trust in her. Although she was not as important as Chi Yan, she should also know about this. Just that about everything about this mountain, she heard it for the first time. But looking at Chi Yan’s expression, he seemed to have known it for a long time.

  Su Ruiying’s inquiry happened to be what Jun Wu Xie thought. She looked at Chi Yan with her eyes fixed, waiting for Chi Yan’s reply.

  SInce they have arrived here, Chi Yan did not seem to have any plans to hide it. He said straightforwardly: “At the beginning of the Three Realms, there were gods, the gods created the Upper Realms, and created the rules of the world. But I don’t know since when, those gods that created everything suddenly disappeared, and the miracles they left behind faded away a little bit. This time His Lord let us come to find the temple where the gods lived and find out the reason why the gods disappeared, and what they have left behind. ”


  “Oh? Gods really existed here before?” Gu Ying’s face showed a trace of surprise. If Jun Wu Xie did not know that Gu Ying already knew it, she would have been deceived by his reaction.

  Chi Yan said: “Highness Ying, whether or not God has really existed, I will not have to say further. You only need to climb this mountain and you will know everything. Don’t you want to witness this moment with your own eyes? ”


  Gu Ying smiled, “Lord Chi Yan rarely said these things to me, but you don’t have to worry. Since Father has asked me to come, even if you didn’t say anything, I would go.”


  Chi Yan was unimpressed. “It is the best thing if Highness Ying can naturally obey the command of His Lord.”


  With Chi Yan and Gu Ying debating, it may seem calm, but the dark waves were surging.

  Jun Wu Xie had become a real bystander. She had no interest in participating in the debate between Chi Yan and Gu Ying. What really made her care was Chi Yan’s words, whether the Gods of the Upper Realms really existed.

  What was His Lord trying to find?

  To say that His Lord was looking for that lost history, Jun Wu Xie would never believe it. In those lost sacred temples, there must be something very important. That thing may be the key to the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms.

  “However, since the Gods have lived here, why have I been in the Upper Realm for so long, I haven’t heard of it, and judging from the response of Lady Ying, she doesn’t seem to know this place.” Gu Ying didn’t take it seriously but he had a pair of attitudes that break the casserole to the end.

  Chi Yan’s expression was a bit gloomy. His slightly frowning brows had already revealed his displeasure. He looked at Gu Ying and remained silent for a moment before he said: “In the Upper Realm, the Sacred City is the boundary, and the 72 Cities stand on one side. On the other side, no one is allowed to set foot on the ground. Because it had been deserted for a long time, naturally not many people know that. If Highness Ying wants to know about the story, you can find someone to tell you after completing the task of His Lord. Let me tell you, now we don’t have that much time. ”


  Gu Ying shrugged and no longer harped on the subject.

  Chi Yan’s face was very unsightly. With a frown, he looked at Jun Wu Xie and said to others: “Is there any problem? If not, after we enter the mountain, you will have to obey my arrangement. Since His Lord left this task to me and I will not allow any mistakes. ”


  Chi Yan talked and even Gu Ying who was usually at loggerheads with him didn’t say anything more. Su Ruiying and Jun Wu Xie would naturally kept quiet.

  Everyone decided to enter the mountain.

  The strange thing was that the mountain seemed to be right in front of them. When they stepped into the mountain, they were very close. But at a distance of half a meter, they could not see the figure of the person in front.

  Chi Yan walked in the front, Jun Wu Xie was in the middle. When she and Jun Wu Yao moved forward, they could no longer see Chi Yan in the front.

  There seemed to be something special in the air on this mountain. It seemed clear, but it was hazy.

  Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao walked side by side. But after walking for a few steps, she turned her face, she already felt that Jun Wu Yao’s face was a little vague. ……

  But in the blink of an eye, Jun Wu Xie had already unknowingly walked into a mist. Chi Yan’s figure and others had disappeared, let alone Jun Wu Yao who was standing beside her. He was no longer visible!

  The surrounding scenes have been shrouded in a layer of mist. Even Jun Wu Xie, whose strength had reached the Dual Spirit Ring, she could not see everything around her.

  “Wu Yao?” Jun Wu Xie whispered softly, but her voice seemed to be completely swallowed by the mist, and received no response.

  Jun Wu Xie could not feel anyone’s breath. The air around her seemed to have dropped a lot at this moment. She could still see the green mountains and green water in the mountain at the previous moment, but when she was really in it. She seemed to have crossed to another cold and deserted world.

  In the mist, Jun Wu Xie felt a hint of warmth. She turned back subconsciously, thinking that she could see Jun Wu Yao. She didn’t expect that there was an ice blue flame that appeared beside her. The small ball of flame was about the size of her fist and it was suspended in the air and stayed by her side.

  All of these made Jun Wu Xie feel unbelievable. In the time of doubt, a melodious singing voice suddenly reached Jun Wu Xie’s ears.

  It was a woman’s voice. Although she did not know who the song came from, it was the best sound that Jun Wu Xie had heard in her life. She almost subconsciously walked along the source of the song and lingered around her. The small flame followed behind her.

  In the mists of layers, the song became the only guide. Jun Wu Xie didn’t know how long she had been walking, only thinking that the humidity in the air was gradually increasing.

  After a long time, the mist that stood in front of her finally dispersed slowly and the picture displayed in front of Jun Wu Xie made her instantly stunned.

  It was a lake surrounded by blue forest. Under the sun, the clear lake shimmered with a little luster, as if the stars were falling in the water.

  In the middle of the lake, there was a small patch of grassland that stood independently of the lake water. The soil beside the lake was completely isolated, just like the green of the lake. Above the green grass, there was a lush big tree with luxurious leaves, resembling a large green umbrella. The source of the singing came from a woman sitting under the tree.

  It was an extremely beautiful woman with her long black hair sprawled on her shoulders and cascaded to the grass. She was wearing a light pink dress and her bare feet were dipped in the lake. She was holding a pink paper umbrella in her hand as she sang an intoxicating song.

  In the midst of singing, the woman turned her head. She had a pair of golden eyes. She looked at Jun Wu Xie, who walked slowly to the lake with a smile.

  The song came to an abrupt end at this moment, and the woman looked at Jun Wu Xie with a smile, and the beautiful voice sounded again.

  “You came?”


  Jun Wu Xie froze for a moment. She could be sure that she had never seen this woman, but the other party’s words seemed to tell her …… the woman had waited for her for a long time.

  How was this possible?

  “You guessed it, I was waiting for you.” The woman smiled and said, she held a paper umbrella in one hand and a skirt in one hand, and stood up from the grass. The corner of her skirt was wet by the lake There was no trace of embarrassment at all.

  Those golden eyes gave a warm feeling.

  “I’ve waited for you for a long time. I don’t remember how much time has passed. Fortunately, you are finally here.” The woman was relieved.

  “Who are you? Do I know you?” Jun Wu Xie frowned slightly, the woman’s appearance was so strange, but somehow, she could clearly feel that the other party did not have any hostility towards her.

  The woman smiled slightly and closed her umbrella: “You don’t know me, I don’t know you, but I know that you will come one day to get your own things back.”


  “My own things? I don’t understand what you are talking about.” Jun Wu Xie became more and more confused. At this moment the black cat suddenly jumped out of her chest and watched everything around her cautiously.

  “Mistress, it’s so weird here, I can’t feel the breath of Lord Jue.” The black cat looked at everything alertly. It had been in Jun Wu Xie’s body. It knew everything that Jun Wu Xie experienced, but …… …… Weirdly, like Jun Wu Xie, it came into this mist without knowing it.

  The high mountains that appeared before them seemed to have never existed before.

  “This is your cat? It’s so cute.” The woman looked at the black cat and smiled.

  The black cat squinted his eyes and did not respond.

  The woman seemed to be aware of Jun Wu Xie’s vigilance, and she could not help saying. “Please rest assured that I have no malicious intentions towards you. I have been waiting for you for a long time here, just to wait for you to rescue me, but …… …… I have some contradictions in my heart. I look forward to freedom. But at the same time, I am afraid that you will really appear …… ”


  The woman’s brow furrowed slightly, and there was a hint of struggle in her eyes.

  “What are you talking about? Where is this? Why am I here?” Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath and tried to calm herself as much as possible.

  “This is the Seven World of Dreams.” The woman said slowly.

  “Seven World of Dreams?” Jun Wu Xie puzzled.

  The woman sighed softly: “Is it because a powerful person made you come here?”


  “Yes.” Jun Wu Xie thought of His Lord.

  “This place used to be a God’s paradise, but it eventually became a God’s hell. I think I probably knew what the person said to you before he lured you here. Since you came, then there are some things you should know.” The woman slowly told Jun Wu Xie, the history that had long been forgotten by people.

  The Three Realms did not exist. It was gradually created because of the minds of the Gods. This world originally did not have any human beings. It was the Gods who created people in order to enrich the world. They stood in the paradise of the Gods, looking at the interesting life of human beings, looking at the world created by themselves.

  All this should have been going on all the time, but the Gods were not eternally powerful. Only by breaking away from this world, breaking through the void could obtain truly powerful power and this kind of power required a great price.

  The Gods knew the talents of this method, but they did not want to hurt the human beings they created. They realized that their lives were already very satisfying.

  But……

  Not every God thought so.

  Among the Gods, there was a God representing destruction. He seeked power and strength. After learning about the existence of the broken void, he changed his mind. He tried to destroy everything in order to gain the supreme power.

  However, his decision was resisted by other Gods. The result was a battle of Gods that no one knew about.

  It was also from that time that the Gods stayed in the Three Realms and the miracles began to disappear bit by bit. The God who believed in love was defeated, and the God who harnessed the will of destruction won. He could finally use everything in the Three Realms to break the void to master that supreme power.

  However……

  At the last moment, that God suddenly found out that to truly break the void, the world they now created was not enough. In addition to the endless souls, he needed the power of other Gods, And …… from the power of another world.

  “We’ve all been defeated, trapped in this Seven World of Dreams. He has not killed us, just waiting for the day when all the conditions are put together, to seize our divine powers. I don’t know what method he will use, I don’t have any ability to stop him, but …… you can.” The woman spoke slowly. She used to be one of the Gods from this world. She was defeated because of her poor strength. Her physical body was no longer there, and what appeared in front of Jun Wu Xie was only her Godly thoughts, and the only thing she left in this world.

  The battle between the Gods was not imaginable by ordinary people. Even if the God of Destruction won, he could not deprive the power of other Gods to achieve the condition to break through the void, his divine power alone was not enough.

  “This Seven World of Dreams, only Gods can set foot in, your soul belongs to the Gods ……” The woman looked at Jun Wu Xie. From her eyes, Jun Wu Xie saw a firm belief.

  God ……

  Jun Wu Xie trance thought of everything she had seen in the environment of the Soul Tree. The woman in the dream was already herself, but …… she never thought that she would be a God.

  “Although I know that this request will be overboard. But …… please save this world, even if you don’t belong here, please, save it for the sake of all lives.” The smile on the woman’s face had dispersed. She put down the paper umbrella, folded her hands and looked at Jun Wu Xie, her eyes full of pleading.

  Jun Wu Xie was silent for a moment as she sorted through the immense amount of information that appeared in her.

  After a long time, Jun Wu Xie said: “If you don’t say that, I will do the same. Here, there are my loved ones.” Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath, and already had a rough idea in mind.

  She realized that all this was a planned game.

  It was a God who stood at the pinnacle of the Three Realms who had devised this game of chess. Every step she took was anticipated by that God.

  Step by step, to the point where he needed it!

  The Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms were just a lure.

  The God dressed in human coat stood in the supreme position of the Upper Realms, designed everything, deliberately released the news of the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms, deliberately led her to step by step to the Upper Realm and deliberately brought her to Seven World of Dreams.

  Perhaps, the reason why her soul appeared in this world was also deliberately arranged by that God. Otherwise, she should have died in that explosion long ago.

  After she had grasped the situation, Jun Wu Xie completely understood!

  “If I didn’t guess wrong, here, I can find my lost divine power, right?” Jun Wu Xie looked at the woman and spoke slowly.

  The God of Destruction was unable to break the void by his own power, he needed more divine power. Whether it was herself or Jun Wu Yao who had the power, the difference was that the power of Jun Wu Yao was deliberately suppressed by someone and her power had long been lost.

  That man tried hard to coax her into the Seven World of Dreams to recover her lost power, and thus became his real help for breaking through the void!

  Jun Wu Xie understood everything thoroughly, and the person who had been fighting with her was not just a person, but a God!

  “You are right.” The woman smiled slightly. “He is very smart. We have been trapped in the Seven World of Dreams for too long. We cannot leave, nor can we escape. We are trapped in this little dreamland. The middle is a kind of torture. We can’t stop him. He knows very well that we can no longer endure this kind of suffering, and you are not only his hope, but also our hope. ”


  The woman smiled slightly. She picked up the paper umbrella on the ground again, and as the paper umbrella fell into her hands, the calm lake was undulating in an instant, and the lake formed a huge water curtain under the waves. The figure turned into a little star in an instant.

  “Soul from another world, I would like to give my soul to you, only at the moment of your divine awakening can you save the world and restore it to its former peace.

  The woman’s final voice dissipated in the water curtain, and the lake exploded suddenly, turning the water droplets as fine as raindrops, which were scattered all over Jun Wu Xie’s body.

  Jun Wu Xie only felt a refreshing feeling spread all over her body, covered with lake water all over her body, but yet there was no moisture at all. The water droplets that refracted the sun, like the stars in the environment, started to be absorbed into her body little by little, until they disappeared……

  In an instant, the consciousness of Jun Wu Xie suddenly fell into a darkness, all the scenery in front of her disappeared in a moment without a trace, she vaguely saw that there was such a ray of light lingering in the darkness, she was moving towards the light……

  Among the green mountains, Su Ruiying stared blankly at everything in front of her. Her eyes were filled with an indescribable panic. She turned to look at the people around, looked at the ghoul masked man, looked at Chi Yan, looked at Qin Qi, Looking at Gu Xinyan and Jun Wu Yao ……

  But only the figures of Jun Wu Xie and Gu Ying were absent.

  “Chi Yan! Where is Lord Yan Hai and Highness Ying?” Su Ruiying looked at Chi Yan with an incredible look. She had been walking at the end of the team before, but after entering the mountain, Jun Wu Xie and Gu Ying were in Her eyes became more and more blurred, until she entered the mountain, she could no longer see Jun Wu Xie and Gu Ying.

  These two people, in front of her, disappeared completely without a trace.

  “It’s all been done.” Chi Yan suddenly said and stopped. He had just reached the foot of the mountain and he had no plans to move on.

  Qin Qi was extremely obedient standing next to Chi Yan. He took out the paper umbrella that had been prepared, and shaded Chi Yan from the blazing sun.

  “It’s all been done? What do you mean?” Su Ruiying panicked. To be honest, she had been a Knight of Destruction for so long, but she had never been able to understand Chi Yan’s temperament. She only knows that Chi Yan was a very stubborn person. He only obeyed His Lord’s instructions, and he would not pay attention to anything else.

  “It means literally. The purpose of our mission has been achieved. You can continue to wait here. The rest is not what we need to do.” Chi Yan said calmly.

  “But, Highness Ying and the rest……”


  “They naturally went where they should go.” Chi Yan’s impatient opening, his slightly furrowed brows already showed his impatience.

  Su Ruiying didn’t dare to keep asking, but the doubts in her heart were still unsolved.

  Gu Xin Yan, who had been stunned all the time, gave a strange look at this moment. She was the person brought by Gu Ying. But now Gu Ying has disappeared. What was she going to do?

  However, Gu Xin Yan was very clear that in front of Chi Yan, her humble strength had no effect at all. She almost looked subconsciously to Jun Wu Yao, who was brought by Jun Wu Xie. She did not know what the other party would do.

  Almost at the moment when Gu Xin Yan looked at Jun Wu Yao, Jun Wu Yao suddenly took a step and walked towards Chi Yan.

  Chi Yan didn’t look at Jun Wu Yao at all. But Qin Qi, who was standing beside Chi Yan, saw Jun Wu Yao approaching near. He couldn’t help but raise his head and stepped forward, blocking Jun Wu Yao’s way.

  “You lowly servant, who allowed you to be close to Lord Chi Yan?” Qin Qi said proudly, watching Jun Wu Yao’s eyes full of contempt.

  Before Jun Wu Xie’s cold pride towards Qin Qi, Qin Qi hated him. But he was not Jun Wu Xie’s opponent at all. Even though Chi Yan supported him, he did not dare to really conflict with Jun Wu Xie. But now it’s different.

  Jun Wu Xie was no longer present. Qin Qi could use Jun Wu Xie’s follower to vent his anger. Anyway, even if he killed Jun Wu Xie’s follower, Qin Qi was naturally fearless with Chi Yan beside him if Jun Wu Xie asked about it.

  Jun Wu Yao looked at Qin Qi with cold eyes. Only one glance, Qin Qi’s sweat all stood up in an instant with an inexplicable fear filled Qin Qi’s heart instantly.

  This fear made Qin Qi hairy. Where could he think of it? A seemingly ordinary follower would have such terrifying looks.

  “What are you looking at? Do you want to die?” Qin Qi couldn’t believe he would be scared by a follower, and he just held up a tough attitude and looked at Jun Wu Yao with fierceness.

  “Don’t think that you can be brave with Yan Hai’s backing. Now that your lord is gone, I want to kill you, just like killing a dog ……”


  The insult from Qin Qi was not done yet. The voice came to an abrupt halt in an instant. The red blood spattered out and the thick bloody smell filled everyone’s nose.

  Su Ruiying, who was standing on the side, widened her eyes incredulously, and looked at the man who unscrewed Qin Qi’s head from his neck with one hand. In the blood curtain, the man’s figure seemed to be transformed into a ghost in an instant. There was no peace in the past.

  The sudden killing made everyone shocked. But it was Chi Yan who did not expect that the follower beside Jun Wu Xie, who didn’t look inconspicuous, killed Qin Qi as soon as he struck. And he did it in front of him and he didn’t even have a chance to stop.

  “Tell me, where is he?” Jun Wu Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, suppressing the killing heart for a long time to wake up again under the baptism of blood. He watched Jun Wu Xie disappear before him. The confusion in his heart at that moment had shattered his last calmness. The reason why he would wait until now is to wait for Chi Yan to give an answer.

  Obviously, Chi Yan was not going to say much.

  Then ……

  Since Chi Yan was reluctant to speak, he would force open his mouth and let him speak!

  “Who the hell are you?” Chi Yan suddenly felt surrounded by a strong sense of oppression. With his strength, he felt a bit of breathing difficulty. The strength of this person in front of him was definitely not an ordinary follower and guard!

  The corners of Jun Wu Yao’s mouth slightly lifted, and his evil eyes faded the disguised black color and restored its original purple …… His face changed after the content was fading a little bit, returning to his true appearance. .

  Chi Yan stared at the unremarkable attendant before him. He instantly turned into a handsome and extraordinary man. Those purple eyes brought all the attention to Chi Yan in an instant!

  Among the Three Realms, the only person who had purple eyes was the strongest person who could once match His Lord!

  “Ye Jue! It’s you!” Chi Yan looked at Jun Wu Yao incredulously. He couldn’t believe it. The man who had been arrested by His Lord for thousands of years stood before his eyes at this moment.

  Before this, this man had been disguised as a follower and followed them all the way. What was more terrible was that they were unaware of it!

  Su Ruiying was shocked and stunned. When she realized Jun Wu Yao’s true identity, her mind was about to explode. She thought that she was so close to her death that she wanted to make Jun Wu Yao into a soul puppet doll. She was so scared that she couldn’t stand firmly……

  If she really dared, she would have become a dead body!

  “You still dare to come to the Upper Realm?” Chi Yan finally suppressed his inner shock. He looked at Jun Wu Yao unsteadily. He could not believe that Jun Wu Yao dare to return?

  After being imprisoned twice in a row by His Lord, shouldn’t Jun Wu Yao be hiding far from the Upper Realms?

  But …… how could he come back?

  “Where is he?” Jun Wu Yao’s eyes narrowed slightly, dismissive of Chi Yan’s inquiry, and the only thing he wanted to know was where Jun Wu Xie was!

  Up to now, Jun Wu Yao had realized that this time the itinerary was set by His Lord against Jun Wu Xie, just as he trapped him in the past. He would never allow this to once again happen to Jun Wu Xie!

  Chi Yan sneered: “I was curious previously. With Yan Hai’s ability, how could such a big improvement be achieved in a short time. It turned out to be because of you, but it is a pity, no matter what you want to do now, it’s too late. Yan Hai had gone to where he should go according to His Lord’s plan. Other than Yan Hai and Gu Ying, there is no one else who set foot in that place. Even if I tell you where he is, you can’t find it! ”


  Jun Wu Yao’s eyes suddenly flashed a killing intent, the strong killing intent was suffocating.

  Almost instantly, Chi Yan used the power of his whole body, and at the same time shouted at Su Ruiying, who was stunned: “Ying! What are you still looking at?”


  Su Ruiying recovered in a trance, and hurriedly opened the red wooden box she carried with her. The two puppets fell to the ground from the box. Su Ruiying sipped, and the two puppets stood up immediately, and the two ray of lights immediately enveloped the two puppets.

  Under the shroud of light, the two small sized dolls suddenly enlarged, and in a blink of an eye, they had turned into two giants with eight feet in height! They radiate light similar to spiritual power, but there was no slight brilliance in their eyes. Their whole bodies were full of dead air, just like a dead body crawling from a corpse!

  Giant Spirit Puppet!

  This was Su Ruiying’s unique ability. Although Su Ruiying’s own strength was not at the top and even weaker than Long Yao, she had the power to control the souls. This power used the dolls as the medium to bring the souls into the dolls. The most powerful force before the body was inspired, and its fighting power even exceeded the peak period of those souls alive!

  The puppets would not feel hurt or fear anything. They would only attack their targets according to the instructions of Su Ruiying, which was a true war weapon! In addition to the two giant puppets, Su Ruiying took out four puppets from the mahogany box. Those puppets also grew rapidly under the catalysis of her power, but their final change in size was only half the height of a person. .

  The four puppets stood around Su Ruiying, protecting her with guarding postures.

  When Chi Yan saw the puppet summoned by Su Ruiying, a smile flashed through his eyes.

  As the only female among the Knights of Destruction , Su Ruiying was not solely dependent on her ability to control the soul. Her strength comes from the dolls she made. As long as Su Ruiying had enough spiritual power, she could even manipulate an army of puppet dolls!

  Chi Yan turned to Jun Wu Yao and said, “Ye Jue, you are now a Mud Bodhisattva crossing the river itself. You can’t protect yourself, and you still worry for Yan Hai? Don’t forget, you are still suffering from the life and death worm’s control!”


  At the moment, Chi Yan had suppressed his inner shock. He looked at Jun Wu Yao proudly, and there was no fear in his eyes.

  If the person standing in front of him was the previous Ye Jue who sat at the peak, even Chi Yan had support from Su Ruiying, they were still not Jun Wu Yao’s opponents.

  However, most of Jun Wu Yao’s strength had been suppressed by life and death worm, which cannot be used normally, and he was all alone. Chi Yan naturally had nothing to fear!

  “However, I still want to thank you. If it’s not you who showed up, I’m afraid I will waste a lot of efforts to search for you in the future. Since you have sent yourself here, don’t blame us.” His spiritual power expanded in an instant, a dazzling light floated in his hands, and a huge Spirit Ring appeared in Chi Yan’s hands.

  The strength of that Spirit Ring was twice as large as the Spirit Ring of any single Spirit Ring among the Upper Realm!

  The two giant puppets of Chi Yan and Su Ruiying form a triangle, trapping Jun Wu Yao in it.

  Of course ……

  There was not a sliver of fluctuation in Jun Wu Yao’s face, and those murderous eyes swept coldly over Chi Yan. He was like a king walking down the temple, looking down on all human beings.

  “Hmph? Just with the lot of you?” Those arrogant words came out of Jun Wu Yao’s mouth.

  At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the past again. The one standing on the top of the Upper Realm, the only one that could rival His Lord, anyone in his eyes was as small as an ant.

  “Ye Jue, don’t be overconfident.” Jun Wu Yao’s tone displeased Chi Yan’s heart. Except for His Lord, Chi Yan never bowed his head in front of anyone, never in the past and future!

  “Confident?” Jun Wu Yao sneered. He raised it slowly with one hand. The black dark spirit gathered in his palm a little, like a burning black flame, as if it would engulf everything into the abyss.

  His chin lifted slightly, and the evil smile spread from the corners of his lips.

  “For you, how can I not be confident? I only ask you the last time, where is he? If you don’t want to say …… I will let you suffer until you speak.”


  “I won’t tell you, you have no chance to know.” Chi Yan said coldly.

  “Oh?” Jun Wu Yao chuckled abruptly, his figure slowly rising up into the air, conquering, watching Chi Yan and the others.

  Since his reunion with Jun Wu Xie, Jun Wu Yao had been immersed in happiness with Jun Wu Xie. That warm sense of happiness warmed his cold heart a little, and it calmed the killing that filled his heart. Even if he returned to the Upper Realm that disgusted him, even if he tried to strangle those disgusting people several times.

  However, he knew very well that Jun Wu Xie didn’t want him to strike easily. She didn’t want to expose him to danger, and he was willing to consolidate the killing spirit in his heart, standing behind her, watching her plan and her confidence.

  Of course ……

  Now, the killing spirit in Jun Wu Yao’s heart had been completely ignited, there was nothing more unbearable than the fear of losing Jun Wu Xie.

  “Then, let’s take a good look at the taste of despair.” Jun Wu Yao’s faint voice spoke with a sweet voice with a non-smiling tone.

  But the sound passed into Su Ruiying’s ears, but it made Su Ruiying’s blood seem to freeze in an instant. A fear that had never hovered in her heart. She wished to escape from here immediately, from the man who just watched and made her feel the death!

  Su Ruiying’s premonition was correct, just at the moment when Jun Wu Yao’s voice fell, the demon in his hand expanded in an instant, a huge black flame, as if swallowing the sun, and the dark shadow enveloped the earth, and the wind blew suddenly. The green grass floats and the fallen leaves were flying, like a precursor to a landslide!

  The powerful coercion seemed to be able to smash people’s internal organs instantly!

  The four puppets around Su Ruiying made a crisp cracking sound under strong coercion. A series of cracks cracked like a cobweb on the face of the puppet, and the soul sealed in the puppet flowed out of the crack crazily!

  So strong! !

  Su Ruiying had never felt such a powerful coercion, the puppet guarding her seems to burst in the next second. She subconsciously looked at Chi Yan, but found that ……

  Chi Yan’s face was so ugly!

  Chi Yan thought that Jun Wu Yao, who had been restrained by life and death worm would no longer have such a powerful force. But the strong coercion over his head, but even he could feel the great pain!

  How powerful was Jun Wu Yao exactly?

  Chi Yan couldn’t guess at all. At this moment, Chi Yan realized for the first time that he had erroneously underestimated Jun Wu Yao’s strength. This realization came too late.

  The dark spirit in Jun Wu Yao’s hands had already condensed and smashed downwards!

  Chi Yan looked at Jun Wu Yao, and his ink-dyed long hair fluttered in the wind, like a god, like a devil who fell from Nine Heavens. The endless pressure like a god and demon caused Chi Yan and Su Ruiying to shake their hearts violently.

  The dark spirit in Jun Wu Yao’s hands exploded in a flash. Heaven and the earth rose in brilliance. As the dark spirits waved down, the brilliance was as if the only eternal light appeared between heaven and earth.

  Rumble, Rumble, Rumble! ! !

  This loud noise seemed to be out of chaos. In the next second, the mountains turned into powder, the gravel floated in the void, and fell like a rainstorm, piled up into high mountains. At a glance, as if it was connected to heaven and earth, the support pillar of heaven.

  Jun Wu Yao was in midair, like the sovereign of the heavens and earth.

  “Ye Jue, Ye Jue, you are really strong, beyond imagination ……” Chi Yan raised his mouth slightly, staring at Ye Jue who was stood in the air, and said.

  “His whereabouts …… there is only one chance, otherwise, the next time you will turn into powder, it will be you and her.” Jun Wu Yao’s eyes fell on Chi Yan, then he pointed to Su Ruiying.

  The only value of these two people in front of Jun Wu Yao was the whereabouts of Jun Wu Xie. Otherwise, Jun Wu Yao would not keep them alive until this time.

  “Ye Jue, as I said before, you are indeed very strong and so outrageous, but you …… can’t kill us, or even, you will die here today.” Chi Yan burst into vain in his cold eyes and said.

  Hearing what Chi Yan had said, Jun Wu Yao had no expression on his face: “Chi Yan, who gave you the confidence and gave you the courage to talk to me like this?”


  “Ha ha, Ye Jue, you are indeed very strong.” At this time, Chi Yan suddenly laughed with a pair of cold and frightening eyes.

  “Oh ……” Jun Wu Yao’s interest was completely aroused. The taste of Chi Yan’s words seemed to depend on him. In this case, he also wanted to take a look at what storms Chi Yan would be able to create. .

  “You don’t know enough about me …… You don’t even understand the power of His Lord, so Ye Jue, you are very ignorant and funny ……”


  Chi Yan raised his lips with a trace of ridicule, strode forward, and Su Ruiying followed behind Chi Yan, carefully watching Jun Wu Yao’s every move.

  Above the void, Jun Wu Yao’s indifferent eyes stared at Chi Yan and Su Ruiying……

  “Su Ruiying, is the spirit energy enough?” Chi Yan suddenly asked.

  Su Ruiying was stunned for a moment, and she felt a strange feeling in her heart. She whispered: “Eight out of ten, there was not much loss before.”


  “So, is it enough to support the strongest soul in this neighborhood.” Chi Yan asked again.

  Su Ruiying thought for a moment, she didn’t expect Chi Yan to want to use it here …… but a moment later, she nodded: “Enough.”


  “Good! Today is Ye Jue’s death!” Chi Yan’s right arm raised, and the void in front of him was rippling. Soon, the naked eye could see that the void was actually torn apart from the torn void. In the middle, a very strange corpse floated out.

  The body of this corpse was distorted, the skin on and off was mottled, and the skin color was completely different. Obviously it was not from the same body, it should be stitched from multiple bodies to form a completed body.

  That’s …… “Jun Wu Yao looked at Chi Yan and Su Ruiying’s actions, frowning slightly. The behavior of Chi Yan was indeed a little weird. After looking at the spliced ​​corpse, he inadvertently exuded the viciousness that made everything lose its color.

  Jun Wu Yao looked at it for a moment, and then returned his gaze. In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy and tricks would be broken by a punch.

  Therefore, no matter what Chi Yan and Su Ruiying do, for Jun Wu Yao, it was futile and useless……

  “Su Ruiying, now, you can summon it.” Chi Yan admired the stitched corpses before him, as if looking at the most precious treasure, before he turned towards Su Ruiying.

  Upon hearing this remark, Su Ruiying nodded, and suddenly, a monstrous spiritual power emerged, as if a giant wheel had rolled over, covering this side of the world.

  Visible to the naked eye, if the ripple-like black mansions quickly flowed into the corpse floating in the void and the anger on the corpse became more frightening.

  “Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! Ye Jue, you know, this corpse is made up of thirty-six top strong men. From the heart to the limbs, from the eyes to the hair, everything is the best part of the strong men, plus the strongest soul power summoned by Su Ruiying, will be combined with this corpse puppet, what will happen afterwards …… are you scared, scared! Are you scared, hahahaha! ”


  At this moment, Chi Yan seemed to be crazy, and laughed wildly.

  As Chi Yan’s words fell, the corpse puppet, who had been stuck in death, suddenly opened his eyes, and his body was strong enough to deter the sky, all the things in the forest wailed, the birds and beasts retreated, and even the fiercest monsters and slumbers were dormant.

  “Corpse puppet ……” Jun Wu Yao sneered. This Chi Yan was really confident, did he think that he could defeat him with such a thing? The ignorant …… are really fortunate.

  “Ye Jue, this is the power that His Lord has given me. The thirty-six strong men in the world take their strongest parts and refine this strongest corpse puppet, you today …… will die!” Chi Yan flashed coldness in his eyes, with strong self-confidence.

  Soon, the seemingly weird corpse puppet, plus the strongest soul summoned by Su Ruiying, finally recovered. There was no wind automatically, accompanied by the monstrous murderous breath, slowly floating above the void, those fierce eyes staring at Jun Wu Yao.

  “Kill, kill him, let him feel your invincible power!” Chi Yan laughed loudly.

  As if to cater to Chi Yan’s words, the corpse puppet said nothing, and took out a fiery red sword from its waist.

  Swish!

  Suddenly, the corpse puppet disappeared into the distance in a flash.

  “It’s so fast!” Su Ruiying couldn’t help but exclaim. The speed of the corpse puppet had reached the limit that ordinary people could imagine, like an invisible wind, but with a momentum beyond the thunder!

  In the distance, Ye Jue raised his eyebrows, and Chi Yan’s corpse puppet was indeed very strong. This was beyond doubt, otherwise, Chi Yan would not be so confident.

  However, no matter how strong this corpse puppet was, in front of Jun Wu Yao, it still feels like a painful ant bite, and it was not worth mentioning.

  Suddenly, the corpse puppet appeared before Jun Wu Yao within a few inches of the same monarch. At the same time, the corpse puppet waved a sword in its hand.

  Swish!

  A gigantic sword intent seemed to cover the whole world and turn into an endless sea of ​​blood, like the Stygian River leading to the Nine Nether. Jun Wu Yao was like a lone boat in the Stygian River, as if he would be destroyed forever at any time.

  Today, under the sword of the corpse puppet, this world has become the kingdom of the sword. The blood of the sword filled in the entire void, and the shadow of the sword was like a curtain of blood beyond the limit of time and power. To split the world and create a whole new world.

  The sky and earth that was about to split open, there stood Jun Wu Yao in the void.

  He was blinded by blood but Jun Wu Yao stood in the void, motionless, looking serene. He suddenly shouted, “Even the light of the fireflies dare to compete with Hao Yue!”


  The next second, the dark spirit exited Jun Wu Yao’s body into the world. With barely any effort, it turned the sky a depressing grey and created huge waves that completely swallowed the bloody corpse.

  Following that, the dark spirit transformed into vast blackness, as it contained the power to destroy the whole universe.

  “Impossible……It’s impossible!”


  Below, Chi Yan was rooted to the spot, staring blankly at what was happening. He could feel the aura of destruction around him and was trembling uncontrollably.

  The adjacent Su Ruiying’s face was white as well, just like a corpse……

  In the Seven World of Dreams, there were seven most powerful gods in the Three Realms trapped within. In the World of Dreams that no one knew about, these gods that had created everything were for eternity in that small place, unable to leave or talk to anyone.

  From the time Jun Wu Xie met the first god, she continued meeting one after another in the World of Dreams. As time went by, she could feel her body getting warmer and stronger, gradually becoming very hot.

  And throughout the process, Little Black was by Jun Wu Xie’s side and understood better than anyone that Jun Wu Xie was becoming stronger bit by bit with each passing moment, it was a change that could not be described in words.

  The icy blue flame had been constantly following Jun Wu Xie and grew with every gift that she received from the gods. From the size of a little spark to half a body height at present. It surrounded Jun Wu Xie and she kept trying to find out its origins. However the flame was quite mysterious and didn’t burn her even when she touched it with her bare hands.

  The flame did not go anywhere, it seemed to have its heart set, intent on following Jun Wu Xie.

  When Jun Wu Xie reached the last level of the Seven World of Dreams, she had no idea how much time had passed. In the World of Dreams, time and space became very blurry and one could not feel the passage of time or even whether it was day or night.

  On the seventh storey, Jun Wu Xie saw a man. His eyes were gold and he was seated on the grass with a small table in front of him. On the table was some tea and a soft, beautiful melody could be heard all around.

  But when Jun Wu Xie saw the man’s face, she was stunned.

  Little Black, who was on Jun Wu Xie’s shoulder, had its hackles raised and jumped onto the ground as it faced the golden eyed man in a defensive posture.

  “Ah, why is the little cat so nervous? Are you guarding against me?” The golden eyed man looked at the defensive black cat. His beautiful lips curled into a slight smile and he lifted his golden eyes to look at Jun Wu Xie.

  Now it was the man’s turn to be stunned. The smile on his face was frozen and he kept staring at Jun Wu Xie, unable to regain his composure.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the man in front of her with a frown. It had to be said that the man was indeed very good looking but what got her attention was that he looked exactly like His Lord!

  He and His Lord of the Sacred City looked identical except for the colour of his eyes!

  “Who are you?” Jun Wu Xie asked coldly, staring at the man.

  The man snapped back to attention, looked at Jun Wu Xie’s cold expression and said somewhat apologetically, “Sorry, it seems my appearance has scared you. However I am not the same person as the one you have encountered before, it could be said that he and I are twins.”


  The man spoke lightly, but his tone carried some haplessness, some bitterness. For those golden eyes, Jun Wu Xie could not detect any trace of lie. The man before her looked very similar to His Lord, but the feeling he gave her was the exact opposite.

  No matter how much he tried, His Lord could never fully disguise his cruel and vicious nature under the facade of gentleness and kindness. But the man in front of Jun Wu Xie was radiating a kindness that could not be faked, it was a kindness that came from one’s soul.

  Jun Wu Xie did not know why but she had a feeling that His Lord had always tried to disguise himself as the person in front of her.

  “Since you are already here, I believe you would have learnt much from my friends. The one you encountered before used to be a god of this place. He mastered destruction and was called the God of Destruction. And the opposite of destruction is creation and life.” The man smiled once more and looked at Jun Wu Xie. “He and I were born at the same time and I am known as the God of Light. However, in this world, any place where there is light, also cannot escape the shadows.”


  The Gods of Light and Destruction were the two most powerful gods in the Three Realms. Both looked the same and had identical levels of power but their characters could not be more different.

  The God of Light believed in benevolence and gentleness, and the God of Destruction believed in killing and destruction. It was only because their levels of strength were indistinguishable and were twins, a tension formed. This tension was completely destroyed one day.

  The God of Light fell in love with a woman that he had created himself. She was not a beautiful woman and he had initially created her just to see how she would live in the Three Realms as a human.

  However as he watched her through the God’s mirror, he saw her grow up day by day, her radiant smile and joyous laughter stirred within him a feeling he had never felt before.

  He started to pine for her and even wanted to leave the god’s paradise to see her. Alas, although the gods had created the world, they had strict rules as well. They could not appear in front of humans and could only use their powers to create miracles in front of them.

  The God of Light became unhappy and the God of Destruction found out about it. The God of Destruction then used the prospect of meeting the woman to lure the God of Light out of paradise……

  The God of Light was intoxicated by the feeling of being in love and believed the God of Destruction. He assumed human form and left paradise to spend a few days with the woman.

  But……

  When the God of Light returned to paradise, everything was over.

  When he left paradise, the balance between him and the God of Destruction was lost. Many Gods were killed and the only ones who remained were the cruel God of Intentions and the God of Destruction who was dripping in blood and laughing maniacally.

  That was the first time the God of Light felt rage. Looking at a face identical to his, his normally calm temperament gave way to violent intentions.

  However……

  He could not act on those feelings.

  The God of Destruction had abducted the woman that the God of Light was in love with, to blackmail him into giving up his resistance.

  The God of Light eventually relented……

  “I am not a stubborn God, or maybe I stopped being a God when I fell in love with that woman……” the God of Light spoke slowly with anguish and annoyance but with no regret.

  “I’m sorry, the mess today is a result of my weakness then. Being imprisoned here is also what I deserve.” The God of Light sighed and looked up to face Jun Wu Xie again.

  “I know that he needs to do certain things to complete his plan of breaking the void. I also know that a God who has lost his power would come here. I just didn’t expect it to be you.” The God of Light suddenly spoke in a very respectful tone.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the God of Light in confusion.

  “You recognise me?”


  “I don’t recognise you but I can feel your aura. In the heavens, no God is omnipotent. We were once weak, small and didn’t know how to use our powers. Then, the Lord of Gods sent a messenger to teach us how to use our powers and create this world. You have the same aura as that messenger, you might be a messenger of the Lord of Gods.” the God of Light said gently.

  Jun Wu Xie was stunned and recalled the dream she had at the Spirit Tree. In the dream, she was teaching two children amidst much chaos, just as the God of Lights had described.

  “Lord of Gods? What is that?” Jun Wu Xie asked.

  The God of Light went on, “That is the level that the God of Destruction wants to reach by breaking the void. There are many worlds in existence, not just the one we are in and the Lord of Gods controls them all while not existing in any one of them. He selects outstanding Gods from each world to bring them into the void. It is a pity that he has come to our world but only once and none of the Gods here were good enough to be selected before he left. It was after he left that the God of Destruction, after feeling the power of the void, wants to reach that level……”


  Jun Wu Xie was getting more and more confused. The Lord of Gods that the God of Light was telling her about was beyond anything she knew and beyond even the world she lived in. However, according to what the God of Light was saying, the version of her who appeared in another world to teach both the golden haired and purple haired children was sent by the Lord of Gods?

  “Sorry I have been rambling, I’ve been trapped here for too long.” the God of Light sighed softly once again and looked up. “You achieving the last bit of your spiritual power is in my hands. I can give it to you but you must deal with the God of Destruction yourself. If he has allowed you to come all the way here, it must mean he is well prepared. Please don’t let this world be destroyed by him because of my moment of weakness.” The God of Light raised both his hands and a bright light started to glow from them. The light beaming from his chest also got brighter and brighter and soon his whole body became a brilliant white.

  “Firefly……”


  When the light was at its brightest, the God of Light’s body disappeared, leaving only a ball of light flying towards Jun Wu Xie, which was accompanied by that resigned sigh.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the incoming ball of light which her body seemed to be absorbing little by little. This absorption was different from the previous six times, this time it felt like every cell in her body was being soaked in a hot spring.

  In an instant, Jun Wu Xie was wrapped in the ball light, and her body was like a small sun, radiating a dazzling light……

  The black cat on the side was affected by the force as well and its small body was suddenly lifted into the air and bathed in the same light as Jun Wu Xie ……

  After an indistinguishable amount of time, everything in front of Jun Wu Xie’s eyes disappeared. The quiet forest was gone and that ethereal feeling slowly dissipated……

  She opened her eyes and the mountain range that she had wanted to set foot on appeared in front of her. But the mountain range was already destroyed with shattered rocks everywhere …… It was a barren wasteland created by some unknown force.

  There were specks of blood all over the rocks and soil. Jun Wu Xie slowly lifted her head and saw a familiar figure lying in the midst of it.

  He was alone under the sky and it was silent all around him.

  Gu Xin Yan was seated next to the blood stained figure with a stunned look on her face.

  “Wu Yao……”


  That soft utterance pierced the silence.

  Jun Wu Yao, who was standing on top of the rocks, turned around to reveal a bloody corpse in his blood soaked hands.

  When Jun Wu Xie saw the familiar figure, all her previous murderous intent disappeared instantly. His body was next to hers in an instant, embracing her not wanting them to be apart again.

  “Chi Yan refuses to tell us where you went even in death ……” Jun Wu Xie heard a low voice that had a slight tremor in it.

  Jun Wu Xie was shocked for a moment and her gaze fell upon the blood stained corpse……

  It was Chi Yan.

  To be able to keep silent while being beaten to death by Jun Wu Yao really showed Chi Yan’s loyalty to the Lord. However……

  “I’m fine, I have returned.” Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes, but had a soft tone to her voice. He was hugging her so tight that she could feel his tension.

  “What the hell happened, why did you suddenly ……” Jun Wu Yao pulled away from Jun Wu Xie slightly, but when he looked at Jun Wu Xie again, he was stunned.

  Jun Wu Xie no longer had the disguise she wore as Yan Hai and had reverted to her original appearance. But her eyes……were a light gold colour……just like the child that grew up with Jun Wu Yao in the dream world.

  “Your eyes?” Jun Wu Yao reached up and stroked Jun Wu Xie’s face.

  “This is the Lord’s or I should say, the God of Destruction’s plan. He needs more spiritual power to destroy the void but cannot get it from those other Gods. So he lured you and me here……” Jun Wu Xie raised her hand and brushed Jun Wu Yao’s cheek. She felt calm, so calm that it surprised herself.

  From what Jun Wu Xie said, Jun Wu Yao understood everything.

  “Why would he spend so much effort to revive your divine powers?” Jun Wu Yao thought the Lord’s plan was curious, Chi Yan and Su Ruiying might have been a match for Jun Wu Xie before she regained her divine powers but definitely not after.

  He could not shake the feeling that they had missed something important.

  The God of Destruction plotted something so elaborate just to force Jun Wu Xie into regaining her divine powers? How would that benefit him?

  “No matter his motivation, I have to thank him for that.” Jun Wu Xie blurted out.

  “What?”


  Jun Wu Xie’s eyebrow was slightly cocked, and she produced a small golden flame from her fingertip. She pushed that flame into Jun Wu Yao’s chest before he had time to react and the flame was quietly absorbed into his body.

  “What is that……” Jun Wu Xie was going to ask that question when he felt a force radiating from his chest to all parts of his body and removing all blockages along the way!

  A look of surprised flashed across his purple eyes.

  “Since it was a poison from a God, only a God could unlock it.” Jun Wu Xie looked up and smiled at Jun Wu Yao’s surprised face. She had memorised the recipe for the life and death worm that she had seen at Su Ruiying’s house but could never unravel its mysteries until she regained her divine powers and finally, she understood.

  It turned out that……

  From the start, it was never something that could be made by a human.

  Jun Wu Yao himself used to be a God, and only Gods could make things to suppress other Gods’ powers.

  This sort of thing could be easily dealt with if one had a grasp of one’s divine powers.

  With his long dormant powers returned, blood was surging through Jun Wu Yao’s body, causing him to take a deep breath. It was a feeling that was hard to describe.

  “Luckily there is you.” Jun Wu Yao held back his elation, lowered his head and kissed Jun Wu Xie on the lips.

  That lingering kiss conveyed boundless gratitude and love.

  Suddenly, Jun Wu Yao saw a flash of light out of the corner of his eye and broke the kiss to look up behind Jun Wu Xie.

  A huge, icy blue flame was floating in mid-air.

  “What is that?” Jun Wu Yao eyed the flame suspiciously, it was making him uncomfortable.

  “I don’t know either. Earlier when I was in the Seven Worlds of Dream, it kept following me and kept growing as I received more godly powers.” Jun Wu Xie never did find out the flame’s origin but thought it only existed in the Worlds of Dream. She did not expect to see it outside of the Worlds of Dream as well!

  “You mean it has been with you since you entered the Worlds of Dream?” Jun Wu Yao’s eyes flashed sharply.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded her head.

  Jun Wu Yao suddenly rushed towards the flame but it was as if the flame was expecting it and disappeared as soon as Jun Wu Yao made his move.

  “Damn it!” Jun Wu Yao cursed.

  “What is it?” Jun Wu Xie looked at the unhappy Jun Wu Yao in surprise.

  Jun Wu Yao took a deep breath, “After entering the mountain, you weren’t the only one that disappeared. Gu Ying did too!”


  “You mean …… that flame ……” Jun Wu Xie suddenly had an ominous feeling.

  “As I’ve said, why would the God of Destruction help anyone? In order to break the void, he needs more godly power but the God of Light and the rest would never give it to him. But you are different, you are their last hope and they would surely give you all their powers. And that flame that has been following you has been quietly absorbing the power as well!” Jun Wu Yao took a deep breath. The God of Destruction had predicted everything from the start.

  The God of Destruction required both his and Jun Wu Xie’s god power to start the sacrifice. By allowing Jun Wu Xie to regain her power and getting Gu Ying to take the form of a flame to absorb the power from the other gods, he had topped up his own power.

  Maybe he had this all planned from the time he concocted the scheme for the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms.

  “No wonder……no wonder he made Gu Ying tag along.” Jun Wu Xie finally understood what she could never figure out before.

  “Let’s leave at once!” Jun Wu Yao had a deep sense of foreboding in his heart.

  He had not forgotten the God of Destruction’s plan. If he had enough spiritual power, no matter where he, Jun Wu Xie and the Soul Bone hid in the Three Realms, the God of Destruction could still start the process of the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms!

  The God of Destruction had been waiting for Jun Wu Xie to regain her powers and for Gu Ying to absorb them as well!

  He really managed to kill two birds with one stone!

  The God of Destruction dared to allow that to happen only because he had prepared for everything and there was only one final step in his plan!

  If the God of Destruction’s plan goes smoothly, then everything would be over!

  Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao rushed back to Sacred City as fast as they could. They found the city deserted with nobody to be seen on the main street even though it was the middle of the day. An air of foreboding permeated the city.

  Jun Wu Xie had a bad feeling in her heart.

  “Go to the Holy Temple.” Jun Wu Yao said flatly.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded slightly and the two set off towards the Holy Temple along the empty streets.

  Outside the temple, guards in armour were already in formation, sealing off the entrance.

  Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao glanced at each other and saw a look of steely determination in each other’s eyes.

  In an instant, both their bodies disappeared and a storm appeared outside the temple!……

  Outside the temple, a frightening look could be seen in Jun Wu Xie’s beautiful eyes.

  At this point, they were finally going to attack the temple.

  Just when Jun Wu Yao was about to say something, the whole world seemed to be spinning. The sky and earth became blurry and lost its colour. A feeling of chaos and uneasiness shrouded his and Jun Wu Xie’s minds.

  There was a strange and godlike power coming out in waves from the temple.

  “The Chaos Array spell.”


  In an instant, amidst the low murmur of the harmony of the world’s spirits, the inexplicable spell enveloped the whole universe.

  At the same time, the temple disappeared and some kind of irresistible absorption was pulling Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao into a completely unknown space.

  Visit our comic site ReadFreeWebNovel.live

  It seemed like a blink of an eye, but also felt like thousands of centuries had passed.

  After an unknown amount of time, Jun Wu Xie opened her eyes to take in her surroundings.

  It was a valley entirely covered with grass.

  “This is……”


  Next to her, Jun Wu Yao had also regained his senses and was looking around with wild colours in his eyes.

  They could not believe their eyes, or to put it another way, they should not have been there at all.

  “It seems to be some sort of trapping formation.” Jun Wu Xie said.

  “Trapping formation you say……” Jun Wu Yao said thoughtfully, immediately his Dark Spirit condensed, bursting forth like radiant sun rays, the breath of destruction, shaking the world, under the power of Jun Wu Yap, even the void seemed like it could be broken at any time.

  “This?!”


  After a long time, Jun Wu Yao’s expression changed. He should have been powerful enough to break the trapping formation but up till now it had not been the case.

  “It’s Chaos……the original form of power and also the source of all other power.” Jun Wu Xie said.

  Chaos was the source of all power and origin of all things. To try and overcome it with power alone was wishful thinking.

  “You mean the God of Destruction has mastered Chaos Power?” Jun Wu Yao frowned, if the God of Destruction had indeed mastered it, what use would there be in fighting him?

  Jun Wu Xie thought about this for a while and finally shook her head. “Chaos is formless and is the source of all power. It cannot be controlled by anyone. If the God of Destruction has mastered it, why would he go through such an elaborate plan instead of just killing us with it?”


  Jun Wu Yao agreed with Jun Wu Xie’s assessment.

  “In that case, as long as we follow the rules of engagement with this chaos spell, we should be able to escape it.” Jun Wu Yao was intelligent enough to figure that out……

  Just as he thought of the plan, Jun Wu Yao’s expression changed. He was severely constricted and could only move within a small radius.

  Jun Wu Xie was also quickly aware of the seriousness of the situation.

  “This is the power of chaos? It really surpasses any other type of power in this world……” Jun Wu Yao said with a sigh.

  He knew in his heart that if he wanted to break out, he only had to obey the rules, otherwise, it would only be counterproductive, and he would always be lost in chaos.

  It was difficult to even recognise oneself in the chaos.

  Jun Wu Xie was very deliberate in not fighting against the chaos as it would only deplete her and Jun Wu Yao’s strength and leave them helpless. Perhaps that was the God of Destruction’s plan.

  The rules of The Chaos were fair. As long as one followed the rules, there would always be a way out. If not, the consequences would be unimaginable……

  One year

  Two years

  Three or four years.

  Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao had lost track of how long they had been suffering in that valley. In the beginning, Jun Wu Xie could still calculate the dates but as time went by, she forgot even the concept of time.

  Occasionally a talking bird would fly past and say, “The green grass has withered 50 times and sprouted 50 times.”


  “The green grass has withered 70 times and sprouted 70 times.”
……

  “The green grass has withered 90 times and sprouted 90 times.”


  There came a time when the talking bird flew past once more and said, “The green grass has withered 100 times and sprouted 100 times.”


  Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao looked at each other, not saying a word.

  “How long have we been stuck here.” After a long time, Jun Wu Xie was a picture of calm and had long gotten rid of her initial anxiety regarding the situation. The current her was a calm young woman, smiling and carefree.

  “The grass withering 100 times should be……”


  Before Jun Wu Yao finished, Jun Wu Xie nodded her head and gave him a smile that made him go weak at his knees, “100 years.”


  Indeed, the grass withered once a year so 100 times would mean that 100 years had passed.

  The both of them had already been trapped there for 100 years.

  During these 100 years, Jun Wu Xie had shed some of her anxiety and aloofness and gained a level of tranquility. When she was still, she looked like a perfect statue that people did not want to disturb.

  Jun Wu Yao said, “Although we have been here for 100 years, I get the feeling that not the same amount of time has passed on the outside world.”


  “Ah, I have the same feeling.” Jun Wu Xie replied.

  Just as the words left her mouth, the low, heartwarming gong of an ancient bell rang out, sounding like it came from the heavens.

  With each gong of the bell, the chaos power receded a little bit and after not more than 10 breaths, the chaos power was no more.

  “The power of the rules……has disappeared?” Jun Wu Yao’s face registered surprise, “Little Xie, do you feel that the power has disappeared?”


  He had waited 100 years, a whole 100 years! He had lost track of how many times he wanted to fight the chaos power but did not do so for fear of being trapped for longer and even more so out of not wanting to drag Jun Wu Xie down with him.

  However, after 100 years, the chaos power had disappeared and he and Jun Wu Xie had regained control of their bodies!

  Jun Wu Yao quickly became calm. He was smart enough to know that this 100 years was only a beginning and nobody knew what the future held.

  “It’s not so simple, only the chaos power has faded.” Jun Wu Xie said flatly, “This is just the beginning.”


  Jun Wu Yao wore a frown on his face, if he and Jun Wu Xie being trapped in the chaos array for 100 years was only the beginning, who knew what was next……

  After the Chaos Rules dispersed, Jun Wu Xie remained in the same spot for a few more days. It was there that she and Jun Wu Yao spent 100 years together, watching sunrise and sunset together. If she thought about it, it was not a lonely period.

  In addition, the 100 years have improved her temperament and also gave her more understanding of her own power.

  This, was chaos.

  Early the next day……

  Walking towards the ancient valley.

  As they got deeper into the valley, Jun Wu Yao heard a strange song.

  At first, he thought it was a side effect of being trapped for 100 years but as time went by the song got more and more miserable.

  “Little Xie, do you hear that?” he asked Jun Wu Xie. If he was really imagining it then she would not have heard it too.

  “Yes.” Jun Wu Xie replied.

  “Be careful, there are strange things in this valley.” Jun Wu Yao warned her as he felt uneasy.

  After a while, they came upon a stream, which was the source of the song.

  “Little Xie……” Jun Wu Yao was staring into space, his expression changing slightly.

  Even without Jun Wu Yao’s reminder, she had already noticed the same thing.

  Above the void, was a beautiful woman in a long flowing gown with a smile that would capture anybody’s heart. However she seemed distant.

  “When he looks, I will dance. His smile resembles the sun, but he said my coldness reflects the ice…… The years have passed without me knowing. I ask him, where are you? Where you are is where I am. I ask him again, when are you cold?”


  The song stopped. That beautiful lady let out a tinkling laugh, as if she was a young girl as she stared lovingly into the emptiness. Her movements were light and gentle.

  Below, Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao looked at each other. The woman seemed to be rambling to nobody in particular.

  “Excuse me……” Jun Wu Yao said cagily to the woman.

  The woman was very disturbed when Jun Wu Yao spoke to her.

  Instantly, her smile disappeared and unease, fear, anger and pain all came to the surface and could be seen in her eyes.

  Next, ice started to fall from the sky and covered the world in a sheet of ice.

  “This time, can you still use your warmth to melt my ice? I miss you so much.” The woman shed tears of ice and the world fell into a deep silence.

  “What sort of great power is this……” Jun Wu Yao saw that it was enveloping him, Jun Wu Xie and everything that surrounded them.

  Even Jun Wu Xie, normally so calm, was feeling something strange.

  “Without my sun, what use is snow……what use is the whole world? I miss him. Where he is, is where I am.”


  In an instant, the entire world was covered by snow, sleet and frost.

  Between heaven and earth, everything was buried under a layer of snow.

  Jun Wu Xie looked up at the woman and was surprised at the terrible power she possessed but she also felt something familiar about the power.

  It was obviously bone chillingly cold but also seemed to possess a faint warmth.

  “Return my radiant sun!” The woman screamed, exuding a boundless chill.

  “This does not seem to be the product of Chaos.” Jun Wu Xie said while looking at the mad woman.

  “Little Xie, I don’t sense a physical body, she seems to be some sort of apparition.” Jun Wu Yao said, a theory forming in his mind.

  Previously, when Jun Wu Xie returned from the Seven Storey Dream World, she said that she had met many gods and experienced their regrets. The power that this woman possessed did not seem to be of this world, it felt more like……

  “God power? But all the gods have fallen, how could there be one in the chaos array?” Jun Wu Xie had her doubts but could not deny the logic of Jun Wu Yao’s theory. Not only did Jun Wu Yao feel this way but she had the same thoughts herself.

  The power she was witnessing in front of her had too many similarities with what she had seen from the gods in the Seven Storey Dream World.

  The only difference was that the woman in front of them seemed to have gone mad but the gods she encountered before were still in control of themselves.

  “Little Xie, if I’m not wrong, this person is the same as the gods you saw previously but there is no body, only the manifestation of her obsession.” Jun Wu Yao said coldly.

  Just as they had ascertained her identity, the woman suddenly screamed at them.

  “It was you who killed my radiant sun!”


  The woman descended from the sky and rushed towards them.

  In that same instant, Jun Wu Yao’s Dark Spirit, which surrounded his body, rose rapidly, and brought this icy world into complete darkness.

  Jun Wu Xie squinted slightly, raised a hand and a bolt of golden power came out from her fingertip to reinforce Jun Wu Yao.

  Rumble!

  The two powerful forces collided against each other, like two great beasts locked in a violent battle.

  In the next moment, there were constant ripples between the sky and the earth, and monstrous shockwaves swept in all directions. The mountains and rivers in the distance collapsed under the force of the clash.

  When faced with this combination of power, a pained expression appeared on the woman’s face, and the madness in the eyes dissipated a little for a moment.

  “God……power?”


  The impact of two powerful forces quietly touched the woman’s soul. She was slightly shocked, the madness in her eyes gradually faded, and she finally stopped attacking. Beside the gravel, her face was pale and her breath was very weak. She put her hands over her chest as she stared at Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao.

  “You were sent by……the God of Destruction.”


  There was pure vitriol in the woman’s voice, the words God of Destruction rolling off her tongue like acid.

  Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao looked at each other, and Jun Wu Xie spoke first.

  “We are not his underlings but have been sucked into this Chaos Array.”


  “I see……In that case,” the woman’s mouth curled up slightly, showing some embarrassment, “Thank you, if not for you, I don’t know how long more I’d have been lost.”


  “Who exactly are you?” Jun Wu Xie was very curious about the woman’s identity. From the power she just displayed Jun Wu Xie was sure that she was also a god, or at least used to be.

  The woman lowered her head slightly, her eyes closed and a bitter smile formed on her lips.

  “My name is Han Shuang, the Lord of Ice and Snow, and people called me the Goddess of Frost.” The woman continued, “At that time, my beloved Sun God was killed by the God of Destruction, imprisoning his body and soul in the Chaos Array. I traveled all over the world, and finally I found the God of Destruction. I could not defeat him and was imprisoned by the Chaos Array. I don’t know how long I’ve spent there and as my divine power and divine body gradually corroded, only my obsession remains…… ”


  Hearing what the woman said, Jun Wu Xie sighed and said nothing for a long time.

  Her intuition was right, Han Shuang was indeed the same as the gods she had encountered before. The difference being her spirit was muddled from spending too much time in the Chaos Array.

  “If we can leave the Chaos Array, we will definitely destroy the God of Destruction and return peace to the world.” Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes and clenched her fists tightly. She may not have experienced what the Goddess of Frost went through in the Chaos Array for so many years. But the God of Destruction’s actions had reached breaking point with Jun Wu Xie.

  How much happiness had he ruined and how much suffering had he created in order to achieve his goals?

  “You will get out.” the woman stood up with some difficulty, the bitterness in her smile dissipated and she had a look of determination in her eyes. She looked at Jun Wu Xie and gave her a warm smile. “My thirst for revenge, after being in the array for so long, has become an obsession and it has given me some chaos power which I am now giving to you both as my final contribution.”


  Jun Wu Xie was stunned, she did now know how to express how she was feeling.

  The Goddess of Frost would ultimately succumb to the God of Destruction’s plans. By using her power to send them out of the array, it may be the end of her existence in this world, just like the God of Light and the rest of the Gods.

  The Goddess of Frost seemed to sense Jun Wu Xie’s hesitation. Her smile turned gentle, no longer cold as ice, but there was an unspoken relief that could be seen.

  “Although I haven’t seen you before, I felt the pure divine power in your body just now and that power feels both familiar and strange.”


  “I have received the grace and gift from the God of Light.” Jun Wu Xie’s eyes were slightly lowered, those gods contributed the last trace of divine power, to unseal her lost powers. She might have been unable to absorb their divine power, but there were still some traces of theirs in her power.

  That was probably why the Goddess of Frost had a sense of familiarity to her.

  The Goddess of Frost was stunned for a moment then smiled, “Oh it is the God of Light, no wonder you feel familiar to me. I still remember the paradise back then but it’s only a dream now.”


  Whether it was a dream or not, it was now no more.

  As soon as she finished speaking, two bolts of power shot out from her eyes and went into Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao’s bodies before they had time to react.

  “The only reason I was able to hold out this long was thanks to this chaos power but now I am sober and my beloved is not with me anymore.” her figure was gradually disappearing while she smiled faintly.

  The Goddess of Frost looked into the distance, as if looking for the lost shadow of her other half.

  “He is alive when I was not, I am alive but he is…… Dancing with him for long days, he dances alone…… A soft sigh, after years of chaos…… I am far apart from him, I’m here and he isn’t. I ask if he is cold, where he is, is where I am. Where he goes, is where I shall go……”


  With that, along with two trails of tears, the Goddess of Frost disappeared.

  As she disappeared, it started snowing. It was a beautiful sight but when the snowflakes fell on their bodies, they carried a sense of cold desperation, representing the love that the Goddess could never retrieve.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the falling snowflakes and stretched out her hand to catch one in her palm. As it melted in her hand, she suddenly clenched her fist.

  “I will take revenge on your behalf.”


  Jun Wu Yao went to Jun Wu Xie’s side, wrapped her fist in his hands and said, “All debts will be repaid one day.”


  “The God of Destruction wanted to trap us in the Chaos Array forever but instead we have gained new powers. It has turned out for the best.” Jun Wu Xie unclenched her fist and could feel the new power coursing through her.

  She wanted to repay him a 100 times over!

  Boom!

  There was a loud sound, like a sonorous clanging of a large bell.

  The both of them, using their newly gained chaos power, took towards the hold that suddenly appeared in the sky and finally left the Chaos Array.

  When they emerged, they saw the guards they had slain just a few moments ago, they were lying in their still fresh pools of blood. It was as if only a few moments had elapsed.

  “In the end, time in the Chaos Array has no meaning.” Jun Wu Xie squinted her eyes. They had spent such a long time in the array but on the outside it was over in the blink of an eye.

  Jun Wu Yao nodded slightly, everything in the Chaos Array was like a dream. It was like a strange dream that he and Jun Wu Xie had experienced together. But the power in their bodies was real.

  “I want to see what his reaction is when the God of Destruction sees us.” Jun Wu Yao’s lips curved into an unrestrained evil smile. Having planned and calculated every step for so long, finally the God of Destruction had made a miscalculation.

  Jun Wu Xie was really looking forward to the God of Destruction’s reaction when he found out that not only were they not trapped in the Chaos Array, they actually grew stronger in it!

  The outside of the temple reeked of blood and inside, the God of Destruction was casually sitting in the high position, resting his chin in one hand.

  Below the high position, Feng Ming cut a solitary figure in the hall.

  “My Lord, the Chaos Array has been broken, I’m afraid it can’t hold them any longer.”


  The God of Destruction waved his hand dismissively, ” That’s ok, Ying’er has returned and brought back the powers of the God of Light and the others, just as I wanted. Even though they’ve broken out, it’s too late to stop the Blood Sacrifice Array of the Three Realms.”


  The God of Destruction had a crazed look in his eyes, he had been waiting for this day for a long time.

  “But my Lord……” Feng Ming was still a little worried.

  But the God of Destruction was in no mood to listen any further, “Have you done what I’ve instructed you to?”


  Feng Jing took a moment, then nodded his head and said, “It is done.”


  “Then let them come, I want to see what trouble these two sacrificial lambs can cause before they are finally put down. Let them have a last hurrah and an illusion of hope.” The God of Destruction chuckled and the remaining facade of warmth was thoroughly torn down by the venomous expression in his eyes.

  “Whether it’s this boring world, or those weak gods, they should have been eradicated a long time ago. The strong survive, why don’t they understand it?”


  The God of Destruction’s laughter was low and menacing, sending shivers down the spines of those who heard it.

  In the midst of his laughing, both figures appeared at the door of the great hall.

  The God of Destruction stopped laughing and looked up at the two people standing at the entryway.

  “Welcome, my sacrifices.” The God of Destruction leaned back and crossed his legs, the madness on his face there for all to see.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the face in front of her that was identical to the God of Light’s but only had cruelty on it.

  “We have no interest in being sacrifices.” Jun Wu Yao said flatly.

  The God of Destruction laughed.

  “But you can’t stop this.” He raised his hand and a red mist started coming out of the ground and soon everything around them had taken on a blood red colour.

  “You’re too late, Ying’er has already brought me the powers of the God of Light and the others and the Blood Sacrifice Array has started. How can you reverse all of this?”


  Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes. It was hard for her to believe that Gu Ying was really willing to be the pawn of God of Destruction. Previously Gu Ying clearly intended to break free of the control of the God of Destruction, but why did he still fall on the side of God of Destruction?

  “You’re really ruthless to use your own son as a pawn.” Jun Wu Yao said.

  The God of Destruction paused momentarily before laughing out loud.

  “Son? Haha……You’ve got it all wrong Ye Jue. How could he be my son?”


  The God of Destruction slowly sat up in his chair and raised his hand. Suddenly, an icy blue flame appeared in his palm.

  The flame was reflected in his eyes, making him seem even more evil than he already was.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the flame in his hand, it was the same hue as the one that had followed her in the Seven World of Dreams which got bigger as time went by.

  “Isn’t this flame beautiful?” The God of Destruction said to nobody in particular, not clear whether he was speaking to himself or to Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao.

  “Do you know what this flame represents? The God of Destruction slowly turned his gaze to them. He was not in a hurry at all, the Blood Sacrifice Array had started and he was merely waiting for it to come to an end. In the meantime, he could spend their last moments with them.

  “This is the flame of the gods, it belongs to me and is a part of me.” The God of Destruction laughed and waved his hand, the flame dropped to the ground at the side. In that instant, the flame grew and an unreal figure emerged from it.

  It was Gu Ying, standing silently in the hall. His body was transparent, like the ghosts in the ghost realm but right then, he was even more transparent than the ghosts.

  The arrogant figure he had cut once was no more and looked so frail that a gust of wind would blow him away. He just stood there, a blue light circling him.

  He silently lifted his head and looked at Jun Wu Xie, a series of complex emotions could be seen in his eyes.

  “The God of Light and the others were too stubborn, trying desperately to protect this weak world. Everyone in it was created by us and since they were created by us, they should also be destroyed by us. Isn’t the purpose of their existence but to be a showcase of our power?” The God of Destruction laughed once more but it was tempered slightl;y when he looked at Gu Ying.

  “If they weren’t so stubborn, I wouldn’t have had to wait till now. I trapped them in the Seven World of Dreams where only a god could enter. Chi Yan and the rest couldn’t go in but even if they did, they would not have managed to get the powers from that lot. Fortunately, you turned up……” The God of Destruction’s gaze fell upon Jun Wu Xie.

  “Only you could have made them lower their guard and because of that, my avatar, Gu Ying, could absorb their power. At the end of it all,I do need to thank you. Don’t worry, after this is all over, I will find a rock to carve your name into so that even without a corpse, you have a final destination.” The God of Destruction narrowed his eyes slightly.

  “You knew I was coming a long time ago.” Jun Wu Xie stared at the God of Destruction unflinchingly. She was intelligent but she had misjudged her opponent. She could deal with people with confidence but against a god who was willing to sacrifice anything, she had lost the chance to strike first.

  The God of Destruction laughed, “I knew that eventually there would be two people who are from a different world. Many years ago, Ye Jue appeared and I knew another would come. I did now know what form or status you would have when you did appear but I knew that you and Ye Jue had a connection and this is why you are now both before me. That’s why I left him in the Lower Realm as I was sure that when you came along, both of you would meet and come to face me. Looks like I was correct.”


  The God of Destruction knew that if he controlled one of the souls that was from another world, the other would soon follow.

  And his bet proved correct.

  “Ye Jue knew of my plan and moreover he had been afflicted with the life and death worm, you would surely come. The only thing that has surprised me is how weak you are.” The God of Destruction said with a sigh.

  “I thought you would be strong like Ye Jue but you look like a normal person. But then again, that allowed Ying’er to absorb the powers of those seven fellows. Hahaha……” The God of Destruction made no attempt to hide his madness.

  “Isn’t it such a great honour for the both of you to witness the destruction of the world with me?

  “Madman.” Jun Wu Xie frowned at the increasingly maniacal God of Destruction.

  The God of Destruction was very smart, and being the only remaining god in the Three Realms, his power was unmatched. But he was also a madman whose ambition would destroy everything.

  If this had occurred when she was just reborn, Jun Wu Xie would not have batted an eyelid at the world’s destruction. But now, with her family, friends and lover, things were different and she would not allow it to happen.

  “Madman?” he shook his head, “Plebeians like you will never understand my desire, to reign supreme over all. You only need to experience that sort of power once and you’ll never forget it ever in your life!”


  His expression was getting more and more crazed, he looked up as if he was looking at something he had been waiting for for a long time.

  “I will get everything one day!”


  “Don’t even dream of it as long as we’re here.” Jun Wu Yao interjected.

  The God of Destruction said to Jun Wu Yao, “Ye Jue, do you think you are a match for me now that you are rid of the life and death worm? It’s such a shame that you don’t seem to remember what happened when you contracted the life and death worm. Do you need me to jog your memory?”


  The God of Destruction flashed an evil grin and gently clapped his hands together. Feng Ming suddenly emerged from the shadows pushing a wheelchair into the hall. When Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao saw the wheelchair, they were rooted to the spot!

  The person in the wheelchair was stiff and his eyes were glazed over, it might have been more suitable to describe that person as a puppet.

  However, what shocked Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao was the appearance of that person.

  That man looked exactly like Jun Wu Yao and also had a pair of violet eyes. Those eyes however, were dim with no spark in them whatsoever.

  The God of Destruction had also come down from his platform and was standing next to Feng Ming. He bent slightly to take a look at the man in the wheelchair.

  “Ye Jue, do you remember anything now?” The God of Destruction picked up the left hand of the man in the wheelchair.

  That otherwise slender and good looking hand was missing its little finger!

  Jun Wu Yao looked at where the missing finger should have been and scenes began playing in his mind. The man looked weak and his head was swollen.

  “Wu Yao?!” Jun Wu Xie looked at him nervously, his reaction was making her worry.

  “Hahaha, looks like you do remember something.” The God of Destruction stood up straight, looking arrogantly and laughing at Jun Wu Yao.

  “Do you need me to help you recall what happened in Su Ruiying’s Soul Chamber? If you didn’t break into the chamber then, you probably wouldn’t have had to suffer all that time.”


  Jun Wu Yao covered his forehead while cold sweat kept dripping from it. When he saw those lifeless violet eyes, everything he had forgotten came rushing back to him.

  His past which had been erased by the God of Destruction.

  When Jun Wu Yao was still Ye Jue, nobody in the Three Realms could handle him and even the God of Destruction gave him a wide berth. Before getting afflicted with the life and death worm, he had met Su Ruiying and found her quite strange so he went to her residence to check on her.

  And had also entered the basement that was full of souls.

  What he found was not an empty chamber but instead there was a person inside it.

  A person who looked exactly like him, lying in the middle of the room……

  Jun Wu Yao was shocked and wanted to find out everything. But the God of Destruction appeared suddenly and used a spell cast by Su Ruiying to capture him. It was this spell that caused him to go into battle and get afflicted by the life and death worm and that memory was erased by the God of Destruction.

  Flashes of his memory came back but Jun Wu Yao managed to straighten his furrowed brow, a cold light flashed across his eyes.

  “If you had not discovered that, I might have let you stay in the Upper Realm since the other soul was always going to come. But you were too careless.”


  Jun Wu Yao narrowed his eyes at the God of Destruction while Jun Wu Xie looked on worriedly.

  Jun Wu Yao secretly pulled Jun Wu Xie’s hand and gave her a look that only she could understand.

  “The Soul Bone you stole was from him and no matter how well you’ve hidden it, as long as it remains in the Three Realms, you can’t escape the effects of the Blood Sacrifice Array.” The God of Destruction said gleefully.

  “What are you trying to say exactly?” Jun Wu Yao said in a deadpan manner. The God of Destruction was so sure of his victory that he was now taking the time to savour the moment of his plan coming together and leaving his opponents no room to maneuver.

  “What am I trying to say? Haha, I want you to know how honoured you should be to be witnessing this great moment. You will be absorbed into my power and I will transcend this boring and meaningless world. It is your privilege to be a part of it.” The God of Destruction looked hopeful at his impending power, he would never forget how small and weak he felt when he first saw the great power of that great god. It was then that he resolved to be as powerful as him!

  “Madman.” Jun Wu Xie muttered coldly.

  “Madman? Haha, you will never understand my true desires.” The God of Destruction shook his head.

  He returned to his chair and looked at them, “You may have been strong in the past but you’ve forgotten the thrill of having such power but I will never forget.”


  Jun Wu Xie looked coldly at the God of Destruction. Golden light was slowly starting to surround her body as her god power was forming up on its own volition, creating a suffocating atmosphere in the hall.

  At the same time, Jun Wu Yao was similarly surrounded by a layer of Dark Spirit.

  The two of them stood side by side, with their black and gold auras mixing, it felt like a merging of the earth and sky.

  Their two auras filled the hall and the smile of the God of Destruction’s face faded slightly.

  He already knew what Jun Wu Yao was capable of at his peak and naturally knew the gap between their powers. He also knew that Jun Wu Xie had her god powers unlocked in the Seven World of Dreams. Nevertheless he remained confident he could subdue them.

  But the God of Destruction also saw something that surprised him. Surrounding both of them was an aura which was at once strange and familiar, it reminded him of the aura of boundless power that he once saw from the great god.

  “Are you done? If so, it’s time for us to crush your dreams.” Jun Wu Xie looked intensely at the God of Destruction who had come down from his high.

  “What is that power you have?” The God of Destruction was startled and uncomfortable by that strange aura.

  Jun Wu Yao cracked a slight smile, “We have you to thank for that. If you didn’t trap us in the Chaos Array, we wouldn’t have had the opportunity to obtain these chaos powers. You are clever and confident but that cockiness will be your downfall. The goddess you trapped in the array many years ago was still there and she was the one who gave us these powers and opened the door in the array for us to be standing in front of you to make you pay for your past misdeeds!”


  The God of Destruction’s face turned into an ugle snarl. He never expected that the chaos array he used to trap them would end up benefiting them so greatly!

  The chaos array that the God of Destruction left outside the temple was created by the breath left by the powerful god he had seen. The God of Destruction had discovered the power of this chaos power since then. However, no matter how he tried, he could not integrate that kind of chaos power into his own divine power.

  Even, his own divine power had a great sense of repulsion to this power of chaos. A little absorption would bring great pain and torture to his soul, which makes him unable to absorb the dream power. It could only be transformed into a powerful circle, a circle enough to trap the gods.

  It’s just that with the passage of time, the power of the chaos that supports the chaos array was getting thinner and thinner. So from the beginning, God of Destruction never thought about how long the chaotic array method would be used to trap Jun Wu Xie, he just wanted to let Jun Wu Xie before they were sacrificed to experience that powerful endless power.

  However, the God of Destruction never dreamed that the chaos power that made him pursue for nearly ten thousand years was actually absorbed by Jun Wu Xie and integrated into her power, even if only a little, it was enough to change everything!

  The intense reaction of the Destruction God made Jun Wu Xie’s eyes light up slightly. The chaos power she and Jun Wu Yao obtained was indeed powerful. But the power was not extremely rich, and the chaos power could nourish the original in their bodies. However, the divine power and the dark spirit did not replace it. Because of this, Jun Wu Xie did not care too much.

  But……

  God of Destruction’s reaction far exceeded her expectations. God of Destruction showed signs of collapse for this matter, which made Jun Wu Xie quite concerned.

  She exchanged a glance with Jun Wu Yao quietly, and there was no need to talk about each other’s understanding.

  When the God of Destruction was in shock, Jun Wu Xie’s eyes looked at the ghost soul that was almost forgotten by people ……

  Gu Ying.

  He stood silently in the hall, as if he did not exist. There was no sound from him at all.

  But Jun Wu Xie didn’t ignore it, she was not resigned to it.

  Gu Ying may have known the truth early in the morning. He was as clever as he was. He suffered such a miserable childhood when he was in the Middle Realms. Under the oppression of ancient meaning, he secretly lived for so many years. In his heart, he had no desire for affection. He will not doubt the motive of the God of Destruction to find him back.

  Gu Ying’s temptation to himself before and after, he may be looking for the last life-saving straw ……

  Gu Ying also seemed to notice Jun Wu Xie’s gaze. His deep eyes slightly lifted up, quietly facing Jun Wu Xie’s indifferent eyes. The enemies that had fought many times now, but now stood very delicately above the position.

  The gaze of the two met for only a moment that was simply unnoticeable.

  While all eyes were fixed on God of Destruction, watching his expression become more and more fierce, he suddenly opened his mouth and said.

  “Well, this is a good thing!”


  God of Destruction’s ferocious eyes stared at Feng Ming.

  Feng Ming was just an envoy in the land of Gods. He was the first human being created by the Gods. Because it was the first time to create a living body, some Gods remained in Feng Ming’s body. Divine power, which made him unable to survive in the Three Realms like other people.

  In the end, he could only be kept by the Gods and served them.

  At the moment when the God of Destruction’s conspiracy was exposed, Feng Ming stood beside the God of Destruction. He watched the God of Destruction arrange everything all by himself, and also looked forward to the moment when the God of Destruction broke the void.

  “Good? What’s so good? Why? Why does the power of chaos repel me? Why accept them instead? I am clearly the most powerful God in the Three Realms! At the beginning, the God did not choose me, and even with the remaining power he still has not chosen me! Why? I have now become the only God in the Three Realms! No matter the pedantic God of Light, or whoever, they have disappeared forever. Now the only one who can break the void is only me!” The mask of God of Destruction’s self-confidence was completely torn at this moment. This unwillingness that had been suppressed in his heart for many years and it all came out at this moment.

  He never thought of himself as the best of all Gods. When he knew that there was a God who could surpass them, his heart was full of disdain. But when he saw the powerful one with his own eyes, he was deeply convinced by that kind of power. He knew that the reason why God would come to the Three Realms was to pick out the best God among them. He always thought that he was chosen, It must be him ……

  However……

  His determination was eventually a joke.

  That God left with a look of disappointment and regret. His eyes did not stay on God of Destruction even for a moment.

  The self-confidence of God of Destruction had been smashed at that moment. The kind of disregard for shame and unwillingness was like a fire, burning his heart.

  He swore that one day he would obtain such a powerful force and use his strength to prove that even if the God did not give him such an opportunity, he could win it himself!

  When he breaks the void, he will find that God and tell him how wrong the original decision was!

  Feng Ming looked at the God of Destruction that had fallen into madness and calmly said: “I am, as a sacrifice, the stronger the better, they have the combined power, which will be beneficial to your plan.”


  Feng Ming’s words calmed down the God of Destruction in an instant. He stared ambitiously at Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Xie. The evil smile bloomed again at the corner of his mouth. You are my sacrifice, the stronger you are, the stronger the effect of the Blood Sacrifice Array, hahaha …… hahahaha …… ”


  “Do you think that you can really do what you want?” Jun Wu Yao sneered, and the sound of the voice would interrupt the God of Destruction’s ruthless laughter.

  The surging dark spirit raged in the palm of Jun Wu Yao, and gradually spread throughout the hall to form a huge sense of oppression. The chaos power and his dark spirit fusion were astonishingly high. This had been higher than the fusion of divine power in Jun Wu Xie’s body.

  God of Destruction’s laughter dissipated. He narrowed his eyes as he stared at Jun Wu Yao and Jun Wu Xie in front of him. Suddenly, he suddenly laughed again. This time, he laughed very strangely.

  “How …… how could I be so careless?”


  The God of Destruction pressed on the handle of the chair. The ground on both sides of his throne suddenly opened. Four golden and cylindrical columns rose from the open gap, while on the raised golden pillar, circling four light balls of different colors.

  The balls of light, about the size of an egg, exuded a faint halo and suspended above the pillar.

  The God of Destruction raised his hand and took the red sphere that was closest to him. The light sphere was like a flame held in the hand by the God of Destruction.

  “This one is Chi Yan. He was my first chosen Knight of Destruction and one of my favorite works. He used to be the King of the Upper Realm, the true King, a strong co-created by me and the God of Light. He is a just, strict and benevolent king. But it’s a pity that the Upper Realm no longer needs him as a king. There is only one real King and that’s me. So I captured his benevolence and memory and made him a faithful dog to me. ”


  “Look, he used to love his people very much. But in the end, he was captured by the heart of love. As long as I give any order, he will never hesitate to execute, even if it is the slaughtering of the people he once loved. Pushing his own wife and children into the fire, he would not have any hesitation …… ” The God of Destruction’s eyes fell on the red light ball, and the red color reflected on his eyes, making him look extremely malevolent.

  The God of Destruction’s words made Jun Wu Xie’s heart quake. She did not forget what her mother had said before. Han Zi Fei once said that His Lord took away Jun Gu’s soul before he could be cultivated as a Knight of Destruction.

  Jun Wu Xie was not clear of the reason behind it. At this moment, she had a hunch that God of Destruction’s next words would soon solve the doubts in her mind.

  “It’s a pity that I always admire Chi Yan. After all, he is so loyal to me.” There was a slight opening in the mouth of God of Destruction, but there was no slight regret or loss in his eyes.

  He lightly tossed the red sphere of light under his feet. The moment the sphere fell to the ground, a golden divine power sprang out of his fingertips, breaking the sphere of light instantly.

  The crimson sphere of light turned into a red light in a flash, scattered on the ground, glowing with a little light. But after an instant, it vanished thoroughly.

  “But he is dead, and this thing is useless for me to keep.” The God of Destruction said harshly without any remorse. He then reached out and took a silver-white light ball in his hand, his gaze fell on that one. There was a daze as he looked at the light ball, but calmness was restored after a while.

  “This one belongs to Ying, a beautiful but stupid Ying. It was her such a beautiful look at the beginning that attracted that silly God of Light and gave me such a chance. I hate to thank her for it. So even if it was after destroying the body of God of Light, I did not kill her. I deprived her of her memory and her face that had turned the God of Light into a soul, allowing her to stay in the Sacred City and live. She should thank me …… after all …… I was so benevolent for the first time …… ” The God of Destruction’ cackled as he smiled deviously.

  Jun Wu Xie was completely stunned. She still remembered the moment when the God of Light dissipated, the last whisper.

  [Ying. ]

  That was the last sigh before the God of Light disappeared, softly, helplessly, wondering how much of his thoughts and sadness he had been immersed in.

  Because of his love, he destroyed the entire land of the gods. He was trapped in the Seven World of Dreams in endless remorse and self-blame. One would wonder if he would still think of the woman whom he was once so obsessed with.

  He once said that she was the kindest person he had ever seen, who had a delicate heart, the purest heart in the world ……

  Jun Wu Xie couldn’t link the woman mentioned by God of Light with the Su Ruiying she had seen.

  Su Ruiying, a cruel person who controlled the souls. A person who could ruin the souls mercilessly, and arbitrarily manipulate the soul was actually a woman who was missed by the God of Light…… This was really incredible.

  Looking at the silver ball of light in the hands of God of Destruction, Jun Wu Xie suddenly understood the cruelty of God of Destruction.

  Chi Yan was a benevolent and just king, but God of Destruction has taken away his kindness, making him a killing machine that only obeyed himself, and ordered him to kill the people he had desperately wanted to protect. Watching the people they once became, under the indulgence of the God of Destruction, they became cold-hearted monsters.

  Su Ruiying once had a pure heart and a beautiful face that moved the gods. But …… the God of Destruction had stripped everything she once had, making her an ugly and cruel demoness …… ……

  The God of Destruction was deliberately manipulating their fate, digging them away from their precious goodness and burying in the evilness that should not belong to them.

  Extremely insulting and ironic.

  Jun Wu Xie’s eyes fell subconsciously to the other two spheres of light. She knew that one of them belonged to her father.

  In case……

  If she did not meet her father in Soul Realm, it would not take long for Jun Gu to become a cold-hearted executioner under the control of God of Destruction.

  He would forget everything in the past, glory and kindness ……

  With a loud thud.

  The God of Destruction smashed the silver ball of light.

  The faint silver light spread on the ground and gradually disappeared, Jun Wu Xie remained silent.

  Perhaps, for Chi Yan and Su Ruiying, death was their real relief. If they could find themselves back and remember everything they had done over the years, they would live in self-blame, eternal life in remorse and there would never be salvation.

  “This is Long Yao, he …… I didn’t like him at first. After all, he was just a good person, so selfless to everyone, so indifferent to everything. And his power was pretty good.” The God of Destruction took a blue ball and pouted as he looked bored. He didn’t seem to intend to say anything, but just raised his hand to smash the ball of light.

  Jun Wu Xie’s brows wrinkled deeper, and her eyes fell on the only remaining green sphere of light at the moment.

  Jun Wu Yao faintly felt the change of Jun Wu Xie’s breath. He used his own dark spirit to protect Jun Wu Xie’s surroundings without any traces to prevent any accidents.

  The God of Destruction did not reach out in a hurry. He just looked up at Jun Wu Xie and the smile on his face was strangely creepy

  However, such a subtle move had struck Jun Wu Xie’s heart inch by inch. Jun Wu Xie’s gaze followed the ball of light.

  “It’s still small and not fully formed, but this one is my favorite. It is bright and warm, full of happiness and glory. When I first took it out of its owner’s soul, I’m curious, time has such a firm but warm power. I saw a lot of interesting things in its memory …… Do you want to know? “The God of Destruction’s lips slightly raised. His eyes were not looking at Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie was almost a step forward subconsciously, but fortunately Jun Wu Yao pulled her wrist in time.

  And Jun Wu Xie’s slight anomaly did not escape the eyes of God of Destruction. The smile on his eyes became more intense.

  “This memory is very beautiful, a happy family, a brother who loves, and a woman who sticks to the glory and the country, guards the beloved woman, and the child who was just born …… really …… very happy …… and died obviously. It was as tragic as it was, but after death, there was no bit of resentment, only warmth and a touch of regret …… “The God of Destruction squinted.

  “Unfortunately, his survival time is too short, and his memory is too short. I don’t see much. I just know that the woman in his memory …… is exactly the same person who fled …… What makes me more interested is after years of being the Knight of Destruction, there will actually be a person from the Lower Realm who dares to provoke the Upper Realm, a …… a woman with the same name as his newly born daughter …… Jun Wu Xie…… the name …… are you familiar with it? “The smile on the corners of Destruction God spread a little bit, and the maliciousness in the eyes was uncovered.

  “You are a God, you can see all this.” Jun Wu Yao took Jun Wu Xie’s hand and felt Jun Wu Xie’s tension at the moment. She cared about her family beyond everything. Taking care of things, it had become difficult for Jun Wu Xie to maintain absolute calmness.

  The God of Destruction shook his head.

  “I am God, but I will not waste energy on the humble ones from the Lower Realms, and …… God is not omnipotent, otherwise, why do I want to break the void, I know that there will be someone coming, just an accidental discovery “This person turned out to be my knight and the defector’s daughter, which really surprised me.”


  “What did you take away from my father!” Jun Wu Xie said coldly, as if her voice could condense into ice in the next second.

  The God of Destruction chuckled: “His memory, and …… his persistence. But unfortunately, when Han Zi Fei came back and insisted on marrying him, I knew that Han Zi Fei should have noticed. But I don’t care, because only their presence will make you appear faster, and now it seems that I placed a good bet, right? ”


  “My father is still alive, you can’t manipulate him with this kind of thing.” Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

  “Oh? Really?” God of Destruction chuckled. He suddenly raised his hands and patted his palms.

  The back door of the temple was suddenly opened, and a group of soldiers strode into the temple with strides, and among the soldiers, they dragged two people in shackles.

  When Jun Wu Xie’s eyes touched the two figures, the killing intention in her eyes rose to a critical point in an instant!

  Jun Gu and Han Zi Fei were bound together by chains of Soul Binding Chains. Huge chains were linked between them. The soldiers standing around them looked at them rigidly with cold eyes. From the looks of it, their pale faces and blood stains on the clothes reveal that before that, they had been tortured a lot.

  However, when they saw Jun Wu Xie, a gentle smile appeared on their faces at the same time. That smile seemed to be telling Jun Wu Xie that they were fine.

  But the anger in Jun Wu Xie’s heart was ignited in an instant.

  “You thought, I would do nothing and let you come here? You are really naive.” The God of Destruction sneered, “But I was really surprised, I thought that otherworldly souls would not care about the life and death of people in the Three Realms. I did not expect that you seemed to care about your loved ones and friends. ”


  The God of Destruction looked at Jun Wu Xie and laughed wildly.

  The reason why the God of Destruction indulged Long Yao to provoke Jun Wu Xie was to try to test Jun Wu Xie’s temperament. Jun Wu Xie did not become disappointed. She used unmercilessly means to get revenge on Long Yao because Long Yao wanted to kill the companions around her.

  Jun Wu Xie’s revenge and the importance of Qiao Chu and the other companions made the God of Destruction more aware of the weightage of the chips in his hands. That was why he would let Jun Wu Xie enter directly into the Seven World of Dreams.

  Because what he had in his hands was enough to contain Jun Wu Xie!

  “You deserve to die.” Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes and looked at the God of Destruction murderously.

  The God of Destruction simply laughed.

  “I deserve to die?”


  “Hahaha, then, you can come and try now, kill me, you and Ye Jue, kill me with your combined power you got, and then …… you can watch it with your own eyes, your parents, die in In front of you, ha ha ha. ”


  The rampant laughter of God of Destruction echoed in the hall. The laughter was extremely harsh. The smiles on Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu’s faces almost vanished.

  “Little Wu Xie, you listen.” Han Zi Fei suddenly said.

  Jun Wu Xie raised her head and looked at her mother whom she had not had time to spend time with.

  “You can’t let his plan succeed. Otherwise, it is not just me and your father, but everyone in the Three Realms. Even if you give up now, he will not stop. It’s just a matter of dying now or later. To exchange your father’s life and mine with his life, is a good bargain! “Han Zi Fei was blessed with extreme calmness at this moment. She had been in close contact with the God of Destruction and knew his cruelty.

  Whether Jun Wu Xie gave up, she and Jun Gu could not escape.

  “Zi Fei, for so many years, you still haven’t changed a bit. You really are disgusting.” God of Destruction frowned and looked at Han Zi Fei. But he did not let Han Zi Fei come here to say that.

  Han Zi Fei raised her eyebrows disapprovingly and looked at God of Destruction: “That’s really sorry, my human nature can’t change in this life, if I can make you feel disgusted, it is really my honor.”


  God of Destruction snorted coldly, no longer talking nonsense with Han Zi. He looked directly at Jun Wu Xie and said: ” It’s up to you how you choose, and …… I want to tell you a little, even if you have the combined power, you are still not my opponent. I have to remind you that the person Feng Ming is pushing, is none other than Ye Jue’s real body!”


  Real body?

  The words of the God of Destruction suddenly gave Jun Wu Xie’s heart an ominous hunch, and her eyes fell on the man Feng Ming was pushing.

  From the illusion given by the Spirit Tree, Jun Wu Xie once saw Jun Wu Yao from the previous life. At that time, his eyes were more of an arrogance and disdain, as if he wanted to destroy everything in the world. That look was exactly what she had seen when Jun Wu Yao had just walked out of the cave carrying with him a trace of cynicism. But after getting along with Jun Wu Yao for a long time, the look in his eyes gradually changed. There was more gentleness in his eyes, and a little less of a grudge.

  Jun Wu Xie was very reluctant to believe the words of God of Destruction. But the fact made her believe. Her eyes swept over to Jun Wu Yao’s expression. From the subtle changes in his face, Jun Wu Xie knew that what God of Destruction said was true. No one would know better than Jun Wu Yao the reliability of the truth.

  But……

  What should she do?

  Just when Jun Wu Xie hesitated on how to take care of the predicament in front of her, Jun Wu Yao standing beside her suddenly made a move. He suddenly raised his hand as the black dark spirit instantly rushed towards the ‘him’ who was seated on the wheelchair!

  The speed was so fast that Jun Wu Xie had no chance to speak.

  When Feng Ming saw the dark spirit rushing towards the “other Jun Wu Yao” on the wheelchair, he immediately stood in front of the wheelchair and used his power to counter it. However, even so, Feng Ming’s figure was blasted out in an instant as he fell directly to the corner of the hall and vomited out a mouthful of blood when he fell to the ground.

  Jun Wu Yao’s actions made everyone in the hall dumbfounded.

  As a servant serving the gods, Feng Ming had been infected with great divine power for thousands of years. Even though he was not a real god, his strength was not inferior to Chi Yan.

  Even so, Feng Ming couldn’t even get up after a blow from Jun Wu Yao.

  It was conceivable that Jun Wu Yao’s prescription was so powerful. If there was no Feng Ming around, he would directly hit Jun Wu Yao’s real body. I was afraid that it would be completely destroyed.

  “Ye Jue! Are you crazy? You even want to destroy your real body?” The God of Destruction suddenly widened his eyes. He never thought that Jun Wu Yao would do such an extreme act.

  “Don’t you want to die? Tell you the truth. As early as when you came to the Three Realms, I had already noticed you. At that time, you had yet to separate from your real body. It was me who used divine power to separate your soul from your body and gave you a new body. If you dare to destroy your real body, your soul will disappear with it. Have you thought about it? ” The God of Destruction stared intently at Jun Wu Yeo, he had witnessed his crazy moments before but he had never seen Jun Wu Yao so ready to risk everything like now.

  When Jun Wu Yao came to the Three Realms that year, he did not use his real body. At that time, Jun Wu Yao was so powerful that it made people tremble in his presence. The God of Destruction knew that if Jun Wu Yao was kept in that state, it would be impossible to take him down.

  Therefore, the God of Destruction took advantage of his own convenience as the God of the Three Realms and thought of all ways to separate Jun Wu Yao’s soul and body.

  He managed to erase the memory of Jun Wu Yao and it wasn’t until the new body of Jun Wu Yao was formed that the God of Destruction put his soul into the new body. Only then did Jun Wu Yao have a memory belonging to “Ye Jue”.

  If possible, God of Destruction did not want to spend too much effort on this. He needed more than just Jun Wu Yao. He had no choice but to release Jun Wu Yao to lure Jun Wu Xie to appear.

  However, in order to prevent accidents, God of Destruction deliberately saved Jun Wu Yao’s real body, in order to use it to threaten Jun Wu Yao at the critical moment.

  But……

  Never would he have thought that Jun Wu Yao would take the chance to destroy himself without saying a word just as he was about to use his real body to threaten Jun Wu Yao.

  That was simply seeking his own death!

  Jun Wu Yao narrowed his eyes and looked indifferently at the distorted God of Destruction. He calmly said: “I will not be your bargaining chip for anyone. If his existence is a threat, then I will destroy him without hesitation. ”


  Jun Wu Yao looked at his real body indifferently as if he was looking at a dead body.

  “Don’t you want to live? If you destroy your real body, you will die!” The God of Destruction roared out.

  Jun Wu Yao’s lips curled up casually and ignored the clamor from God of Destruction. He turned his head and looked at the worried Jun Wu Xie. He stretched out his hand and rubbed Jun Wu Xie’s little head.

  “I said that as long as I am here, no one will hurt you. I will not even allow myself to hurt you.”


  Jun Wu Xie froze in place. In a flash, she understood Jun Wu Yao’s intention.

  Even if Jun Wu Xie disregarded Jun Wu Yao’s safety and attacked the God of Destruction with all her strength, Jun Wu Yao would not let this happen. He did not want to give the God of Destruction such an opportunity, he wanted to end this all with his own hands and protect Jun Wu Xie, even if it meant by sacrificing himself!

  Jun Wu Xie wanted to say something, but Jun Wu Yao shook his head.

  “You have walked all the way till now. I have seen it in my eyes, how can I be your burden?”


  For many years, Jun Wu Yao couldn’t remember himself. He watched the indifferent girl grow bit by bit, silently carrying the fate of the Three Realms on her shoulders. Such a thin and weak body had to shoulder all this.

  How could he endure and let her efforts go to waste?

  “God of Destruction, you want to threaten me with my real body, then you are really wrong. Even if you don’t destroy it, I will destroy it myself!” Jun Wu Yao raised his head as the last sliver of gentleness in his eyes had faded. He would not give God of Destruction any chance.

  “I don’t believe that you’ll dare to do it!” The God of Destruction glared at Jun Wu Yao as he gnashed his teeth. He didn’t believe that there would still be people in the world who would be stupid enough to sacrifice themselves. Especially someone powerful like Jun Wu Yao!

  Jun Wu Yao sneered.

  An ominous feeling rose within Jun Wu Xie’s heart suddenly as she subconsciously reached out and wanted to hold Jun Wu Yao, but her outstretched hand fell onto empty space instead.

  Before anyone could react, Jun Wu Yao’s figure had already turned into a shadow and shot towards his real body that was the embodiment of his own existence.

  There was a loud bang and inside the huge hall, the roaring explosion pierced everyone’s eardrum, and two identical figures overlapped at this moment…… At this critical juncture, there was an explosion……

  The deafening sound passed from the eardrum to the heart.

  Jun Wu Xie stunned and looked at the fine stars scattered in the hall before her. The dust that shone with light was scattered on the ground. When it fell to the ground, it turned into nothing. This scene was deeply carved in Jun Wu Xie’s eyes and heart.

  An invisible, strong and huge force rushed quietly towards Jun Wu Xie’s soul.

  In the explosion, the whole hall trembled. The blood-red mist that had originally diffused in the hall quietly dispersed a little in this shock.

  The God of Destruction incredulously widened his eyes and looked at the empty wheelchair. In the large hall, he opened his eyes to look around for something, but as a result, an explosion sounded in his brain.

  If you want to sacrifice the Three Realms and break through the void, one must rely on the power of the two souls of the outside world, but ……

  He never imagined that when he thought he had won the game, Jun Wu Yao would choose to blow himself up so decisively! !

  With the total destruction of the soul and real body.

  And such a result …… God of Destruction’s plan was a complete failure.

  Without the existence of an otherworldly soul, his sacrificial array …… how could it be carried out?

  Ruined, everything was ruined ……

  The God of Destruction sat on the throne depressed. He had calculated everything, but he had not anticipated that Jun Wu Yao would choose to sacrifice himself for Jun Wu Xie.

  He did not even leave any ……

  Jun Wu Yao’s self destruction shocked everyone. Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu stared widely and could hardly believe what they saw.

  That powerful man, had just …… vanished? Just like that?

  Almost at the same time, Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu immediately turned their concerned gazes to Jun Wu Xie. A sense of panic that had never been felt before rose in their hearts.

  Jun Wu Yao had sacrificed his body and soul, then their Little Xie ……

  Jun Wu Xie stood quietly in the hall as her downcast eyes hid the flurry of raging emotions in her eyes. Her sleeves and her black hair were billowing around her although there was no evident wind.

  “Little …… Little Xie……” Han Zi Fei looked at the motionless Jun Wu Xie. Her heart was no longer calm as she became more and more nervous.

  She knew her daughter very well. No matter how calm she looked on the surface, her heart was not as indifferent on the inside. Han Zi Fei once heard everything from Jun Wu Yao about how they had met, their various encounters and how their love had blossomed.

  Han Zi Fei knew that even now, Jun Wu Xie had never said it, but as long as Jun Wu Yao was by her side, she had the courage to face everything.

  But……

  Now that Jun Wu Xie had personally witnessed Jun Wu Yao make his choice to sacrifice himself in front of her, she did not dare imagine how this matter would affect Jun Wu Xie.

  In the hall, the only one that remained calm was the soul of Gu Ying. He was in his soul state and the impact he felt was much smaller than others. In his view, Jun Wu Yao’s choice was right, he raised his eyes and looked at the God of Destruction with a twisted face as a sneer appeared at the corner of his lips.

  The God of Destruction would eventually pay for his arrogance.

  Losing Jun Wu Yao’s soul, how would he break through the void? What’s more, how would he handle someone’s upcoming revenge?

  The God of Destruction turned hysterical. He had carefully plotted and planned for many years. But in the end, he was greeted with such an unacceptable result.

  The otherworldly soul was lost. He could no longer activate the array for the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms!

  “Damn you! Damn you! Ye Jue! You are so damned!” God of Destruction roared like crazy, he walked down from the throne. His golden eyes had already turned bloodshot. He wished to find back Jun Wu Yao’s soul and crush it into powder, or imprison it for tens of thousands of years for as long as it could survive.

  However, all his anger and hatred had vanished.

  Jun Wu Yao chose to end his life decisively.

  Whether it was the real body or the soul, it would eventually disappear in this world.

  That was the most complete counterattack given to the God of Destruction and the most powerful change that God of Destruction could not stop.

  A loud roar exploded from the mouth of God of Destruction. He couldn’t bear that the plan he had plotted for so long was destroyed by Jun Wu Yao. His crimson eyes looked at the silent Jun Wu Xie.

  Everything was gone, he could no longer break through the void and set foot firmly in the realm that he had seeked all his life.

  “Ye Jue, do you think that if you die, everything can be over? I will destroy …… destroy everything you want to protect!” The God of Destruction evoked a cruel smile as he walked towards Jun Wu Xie, step by step with a malicious glint in his eyes.

  “Ye Jue did this for you? He chose to sacrifice himself for you. Hahaha …… It’s really touching, Jun Wu Xie, isn’t this very touching? Hmmm? The person whom you love, the person whom you’ve always wanted to protect had given up his own life so decisively and met such an end. What a pity …… It’s all because of you, it’s all because of you that he had chosen to die.” The words of God of Destruction were like a hypnotic chant as he pushed Jun Wu Yao’s death onto Jun Wu Xie as his blood red eyes stared venomously at her like a viper.

  “Bullshit! Wu Yao ……” Han Zi Fei immediately understood the intention of God of Destruction. He clearly wanted to let Jun Wu Xie’s heart fall into huge guilt, so as to destroy Jun Wu Xie’s consciousness.

  But Han Zi Fei’s words were just spoken, and God of Destruction swept away with a cold eye. The guards guarding Han Zi Fei immediately covered Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu’s mouth, unwilling to let them say any further.

  In the silent hall, only the breath of death enveloped everyone’s heart as the God of Destruction looked as if he had just walked out of hell, every step was imbued with pure evil.

  “Do you love him very much? Do you love him as much as he loves you? He is willing to give up his life for you, how about you? Do you wish to continue to survive with his sacrifice? Escape from here with his soul fragments?” The God of Destruction approached Jun Wu Xie step by step, watching Jun Wu Xie standing motionless, the vicious cold light flashed under his eyes.

  Jun Wu Yao ruined his lifelong dream. Even if he died, he could not remove the hatred in his heart.

  He wanted to destroy Jun Wu Yao’s loved one, the one whom he had sacrificed himself in order to protect. He would use the cruelest array in the world to let Jun Wu Xie live forever in eternal life and never get relief.

  That was his revenge against Jun Wu Yao. Even if Jun Wu Ya’s soul had already dissipated!

  The hearts of Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu had already reached their throats. They wished they could rush to Jun Wu Xie immediately to stop the God of Destruction’s plan.

  The malignant intention of Destruction God was too obvious and seeing his twisted expression made them extremely wary.

  Standing at the side, Gu Ying’s brows were light as he watched as the God of Destruction approach Jun Wu Xie step by step. However, Jun Wu Xie did not respond. This situation made Gu Ying find it a little strange.

  Why was this happening?

  Is it true that Jun Wu Xie was really stimulated by Jun Wu Yao’s death?

  The danger was near. Was she really going to give up resistance?

  Gu Ying’s heart constantly raised a lot of doubts. But in the end, he subconsciously denied his doubts.

  No, Jun Wu Xie was not that easy to defeat.

  After playing several times with Jun Wu Xie, Gu Ying knew very well how powerful this petite woman looking body was.

  Then ……

  What was she waiting for?

  Just as Gu Ying continued to deliberate, the God of Destruction had already approached Jun Wu Xie and he was only three steps away from her.

  The vicious cold light bloomed from the eyes of God of Destruction. He slowly reached out his hand and stretched it towards Jun Wu Xie’s neck.

  Just in an instant, a few rays of light suddenly rushed in from outside the hall. In the blink of an eye, they rushed towards the God of Destruction!

  The God of Destruction retreated back a few steps at the same time, avoiding the impact of those streaks of light.

  The streaks of lights appeared before Jun Wu Xie. As the lights dissipated, four towering figures suddenly stood defensively in front of Jun Wu Xie!

  “Want to touch Little Xie, defeat us first!” Qiao Chu stood angrily in front of Jun Wu Xie, defending her. The red aura ignited around him was like a raging flame, a circle of dazzling light appeared above his left hand as a Spirit Ring shone brightly. Fei Yan, Hua Yao and Fan Zhuo stood respectively beside Qiao Chu. The four tall figures formed an insurmountable high wall in front of Jun Wu Xie. The pace of the Destruction God’s attack was blocked.

  Qiao Chu and others originally recuperated at the residence arranged by Nangong Lie according to Jun Wu Xie’s request. But not long ago, Nangong Lie suddenly brought news that both Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao broke into the Sacred Hall. After hearing that, the five of them could not sit still anymore. They didn’t dare to stay for a while longer. They could only put the puppet Rong Ruo under the care of Bai Mo and they rushed to the Sacred Hall together.

  When entering the temple, blood flowed along the road. The damaged corpses piled up like a mountain. The thick bloody smell filled each of their noses and stimulated their nerves. Their hearts were full of fear. They rushed over at full speed. They were afraid of what would happen to Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao. Just before they entered the hall, they saw that the God of Destruction was approaching Jun Wu Xie step by step. Their minds exploded and they rushed over without caring for their own lives.

  What shocked them was that besides Jun Wu Xie and the God of Destruction, Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu were also present and not only that, there was another familiar presence!

  They had all been to the Soul World. They knew the state of the soul body. Gu Ying standing on the side, his translucent body, clearly looked like a soul body!

  The situation in front of them was so complicated that several of them could not react at all.

  “Ha ha ha, oh, this is really touching ……” The God of Destruction looked at Qiao Chu and the others that stood before him. Suddenly he smiled with his bloodshot eyes. His gaze glazed past them as he looked at Jun Wu Xie standing behind them quietly with unconcealed malevolence.

  “Jun Wu Xie, are you very touched? So many people are willing to die for you ……” The God of Destruction curled his lips. The thrill of revenge in his heart grew stronger and stronger. He stretched out his hand to point at Qiao Chu and said to them:

  “Qiao Chu, Hua Yao, Fan Zhuo …… Ah, this ugly monster, should it be Fei Yan?

  The God of Destruction’s fingers suddenly stopped when he touched the Fei Yan bandages on his face.

  Fei Yan’s eyes stared sharply at the God of Destruction, but the God of Destruction laughed.

  “It’s really pitiful to become such an inhuman and ghost-like figure and still thinking that you can come to save Jun Wu Xie. You really have too many partners and they are all willing to die for you. Ah, just like …… Ye Jue. “God of Destruction said with a smile on his eyes.

  His words were like a bombshell and exploded in Qiao Chu’s heart.

  Ye Jue?

  Wasn’t that the name of Brother Wu Yao?

  How could this guy say ……

  “What kind of shit you talking about! You will die, not Brother Wu Yao. Don’t think that you can provoke alienation here!” Qiao Chu couldn’t help but yelled. His heart was faintly uneasy, and he was only aware of it now. Jun Wu Yao’s figure at al in the Sacred Hall. But according to the news given by Nangong Lie, Jun Wu Yao should have entered the temple together with Jun Wu Xie!

  But……

  Where was he?

  “Provoking? Ha ha ……” The God of Destruction smirked and raised his hand: “It’s a pity, if I said it’s not true, then ……” The God of Destruction looked at Qiao Chu’s Jun Wu Xie .

  “Jun Wu Xie, how could she be so depressed?”


  The deep voice of God of Destruction made a chill run down the back of Qiao Chu and the others and what scared them even more was the words from God of Destruction.

  Jun Wu Xie’s state was indeed not right. From their appearance to the present, Jun Wu Xie had not said a word. She never even raised her head. The silent response made Qiao Chu feel even more panicked.

  “Little Xie, Brother Wu Yao ……” Fan Zhuo turned his head slightly and asked Jun Wu Xie.

  However, Jun Wu Xie stood motionless with her head down without a sound. Her breath was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.

  No crying, no anger, no wailing ……

  Only the faint breath sound echoed in the repressed hall, as if …… she could disappear at any time.

  Jun Wu Xie’s reaction almost assumed everything God of Destruction said. Qiao Chu’s heart fell to the bottom of the valley in an instant.

  “No matter what you said, as long as we are here, don’t you dare to touch Little Xie!” Hua Yao took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his inner grief. It was not the time to feel sad when they are facing the enemy now. Jun Wu Xie was in a strange situation. Even if they were in pain, who else could replace Jun Wu Yao to protect Little Xie?

  “Oh? You are handling your emotions really well.” God of Destruction chuckled and a sharp murderous intention flashed in his eyes.

  “Don’t worry, you’ll be joining Ye Jue soon and the one you want to protect, Jun Wu Xie, will be joining you as well……oh no……I won’t let her die that easily, after all, she is the woman who Ye Jue sacrificed his life to protect. I will take care of her properly and let her witness the deaths of all those dear to her, keeping her in an eternal state of torture. Your arrival is a true gift that allows me to increase her suffering!” The God of Destruction laughed cruelly, his plan to break through the void had been ruined by Jun Wu Yao’s death.

  The God of Destruction was full of hatred and only exacting revenge ten or a hundred fold would quell it.

  “Protect Little Xie well.” Fan Zhuo looked at his companions, all having the same resolution in their hearts.

  Today, if they could not live, they would all die together!

  They would not let the God of Destruction succeed even if they had to give their lives!

  In what seemed to be the same instant that Fan Zhuo spoke, Fei Yan put Jun Wu Xie over his shoulder and ran out of the hall as fast as he could.

  Fei Yan’s injury had not fully healed and was the least ready for battle among the four of them. But he was still stronger than Qiao Chu and the rest so the best strategy was to get Jun Wu Xie as far away from danger as possible.

  The God of Destruction saw Jun Wu Xie being carried out and wanted to give chase. However at that moment, Qiao Chu, Hua Yao and Fan Zhuo summoned their Spirit Rings and fused them with their own souls!

  Before, when they managed to survive the attacks of the Top Ten masters, it was because their souls had merged with their Spirit Rings. Now that their souls were fully healed, going through another fusion would increase their strength tremendously!

  A dazzling aura surrounded them, taking the shape of their Spirit Rings. Their power could be seen wafting in the air and their bodies grew larger and covered the exit to the hall.

  “You’ve overestimated yourselves.” The God of Destruction laughed.

  It was undeniable that their current strength would have put them at the top of the Three Realms, higher than even the Top Ten masters who had attacked them previously. But their opponent was not a person……but a God!

  In the blink of an eye, they were sent flying by the God of Destruction. If they were not protected by their spiritual power, all their internal organs would have been crushed.

  Even so, when they fell to the ground, they still coughed up blood and in that blood there were bits of flesh. They had already suffered internal injuries……

  Before the God of Destruction could think of giving chase to Jun Wu Xie, Qiao Chu and the rest stood up once more and rushed towards him, not caring about their lives.

  The three of them were like moths to a flame, knowing the battle was futile but were still unwilling to give any quarter. If they could delay the God of Destruction by even one second, giving Fei Yan more time to get Jun Wu Xie further away, it would be worth it……

  Blood was all around and the stench of death permeated the hall.

  Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu were tied up and unable to move. They could only watch helplessly as the bloody scene played out in front of their very eyes. The youths that they had come to look upon as their own children were repeatedly trying to block the God of Destruction’s exit at the cost of their own lives.

  How they wished they could break free of those shackles, rush over and bear the suffering instead of them.

  Gu Ying looked on with a serious expression, as a spiritual body, he could no longer smell the blood being split. He could only watch Qiao Chu and the others getting gradually soaked with blood and the pools of blood around their feet growing ever larger. As he watched, he felt more and more conflicted.

  Gu Ying had long known that Jun Wu Xie and those before him shared a close bond formed out of many years of friendship. It was an intimacy that was foreign to him as he had been ignored by all since he was young, even when he was holding the title of Blood Fiend Palace’s Young Lord.

  In reality, he was merely a cur, a weapon, a pawn that was raised by Gu Yi.

  In the Blood Fiend Palace, his strange situation was well known, even though the elders and disciples showed respect and were obedient in front of him, Gu Ying saw disdain in their eyes.

  Nobody cared about his opinion or even whether he lived or died. In the Blood Fiend Palace, his sole purpose was to perform shameful tasks to help Gu Yi eliminate his enemies.

  Gu Ying’s world was a cold one, so cold that it turned his heart to ice.

  The only person he felt warmth from was Gu Xin Yan, his sister in name. But after he killed Gu Yi and imprisoned Gu Xin Yan with him, he could no longer feel that warmth, only indifference and coldness.

  Gu Xin Yan hated him.

  The only person in the world who had shown him kindness now hated him like everyone else.

  Gu Ying was very clear as to why the God of Destruction had brought him back and that he was a soul created by the God of Destruction and his very existence was dependent on the whims of the God of Destruction.

  His entire life was cold and laughable.

  However……

  When Gu Ying saw Qiao Chu, his mouth dripping with blood, once again rushing at the God of Destruction, he felt something stir deep within his soul.

  Was it worth it?

  To give up your life just for a friend?

  There was no hesitation, no remorse, just a common desire to get more time for Jun Wu Xie to escape.

  Was it……

  Worth it?

  Gu Ying had absolutely no idea.

  In this world, nobody was ever willing to give up their life for his, not even Gu XIn Yan.

  Even if he had a dog’s life, he still tried hard to live it, watching all those around him die without even flinching.

  Gu Ying could not understand their resolve but for a reason unknown to him, suddenly felt envious of them.

  Envious of them knowing what they wanted and what was important enough to protect.

  A strange feeling started radiating throughout Gu Ying’s soul……

  The God of Destruction was in no rush to kill the three of them, he wanted them to experience the pain of almost dying again and again.

  When Qiao Chu and the rest were unable to move anymore, the God of Destruction stood in the pool of blood that surrounded them and looked on proudly. More than half the bones in their bodies were broken and they had suffered massive internal injuries. They did not even have the strength to lift a finger.

  But they were still staring defiantly at the God of Destruction, as if they wanted to tear him limb from limb.

  “There’s no need to look at me like that. I’ve been kind enough not to kill you as I easily could have but I’ve let you live. Don’t worry, you won’t get off that easily. Since you were willing to sacrifice yourselves to protect Jun Wu Xie, you must be quite important to her. So after I capture her again, I’ll kill you slowly in front of her very eyes.” the God of Destruction laughed, exhibiting all his evil and sinister traits.

  Qiao Chu and the rest were lying in the pool of blood unable to move but would have given anything to be able to pounce on the God of Destruction and kill him!

  However in their current state, they did not even have the strength to end their own lives, much less kill the God of Destruction. They finally understood why he had let them live, it was not because he could not kill them but because he had decided it was not time yet……

  The God of Destruction walked out of the hall, not once looking back at them……

  Fei Yan had carried Jun Wu Xie away in a mad sprint resulting in some of the bandages on his face coming loose in the wind and pockets of unhealed wounds oozing puss could be seen.

  As he ran, the wind felt like a million little knives stabbing his face at once. But he did not dare to stop and look back in the direction he was running from.

  “LIttle Xie……you must hold on……” Fei Yan’s voice was hoarse from the wind and he could not see. Fortunately, in absorbing the Spiritual Ring, his spiritual sense had increased greatly and could sense changes in the atmospheric pressure around him so could navigate without needing to see.

  Jun Wu Xie was silent, as if she had gone to sleep.

  Fei Yan could not see what Jun Wu Xie looked like at that moment. If he could, he would have been stunned.

  Jun Wu Xie’s eyes were open and her golden eyes were as brilliant as the sun but……there seemed to be a fog that was covering her eyes, blocking their radiance.

  Her eyes were duller than those of the blind Fei Yan.

  Jun Wu Xie could not see and could not hear. She had no way of knowing what was happening around her.

  At the moment when Jun Wu Yao self exploded, Jun Wu Xie’s entire spirit seemed to collapse instantly, and when the power floating in the hall continued to flow into Jun Wu Xie’s soul, her consciousness was instantly lost in a strange illusion ……

  So she had no idea that Qiao Chu and the rest had rushed to the hall and what had happened after they arrived.

  All her consciousness had been lost in that mist.

  In the mist, she vaguely saw a familiar figure ……

  The figure was slender and had an aura around him. It seemed that he was the only person who could dispel the fog.

  Jun Wu Xie kept looking at the figure and her heart felt as if it had been crushed.

  She stared blankly at the figure for a long time until the figure smiled at her and reached out his hand, when her legs seemed to have a mind of their own and started moving towards the figure.

  “Wu Yao!” Jun Wu Xie threw herself into the arms of the familiar figure but it was a mirage and her body passed right through it.

  Jun Wu Xie stared and looked at her empty hands. She turned around and could still see Jun Wu Yao looking at her, smiling gently.

  Her lover that she could not touch……

  In Jun Wu Xie’s eyes was a look of hopelessness that had never been seen before.

  “Little Xie……” Jun Wu Yao’s voice rang in Jun Wu Xie’s ears. The voice was both very gentle and tragic at the same time.

  “I’ve always been here and always will be by your side. As long as you don’t forget me, I will be in your soul forever.” Jun Wu Yao said gently, with a sweet smile on his face.

  Jun Wu Xie balled her hands up into fists, she could not accept such an outcome……

  How did it turn out like this?

  “Don’t be upset, you still have unfinished business and I’m still here.” Jun Wu Yao frowned slightly, he could not bear to see Jun Wu Xie in pain.

  He wanted badly to hold her in his arms but this had become an impossibility.

  When his real body exploded, he gave up the possibility of holding her in his arms ever again.

  However……

  He had no regrets.

  When he self exploded, he had prepared for the worst. He did not expect that because of his previous training in the Chaos Array, he and Jun Wu Xie would have chaos power which should not have existed in this world. The bond that the shared power gave them meant that when he self exploded, his soul got absorbed into hers.

  It was just that……

  Only a few damaged souls could leave such a scar.

  Therefore, Jun Wu Yao was very satisfied.

  More importantly, when the fragments of Jun Wu Yao’s soul merged into Jun Wu Xie’s, he suddenly discovered that the divine power in Jun Wu Xie’s soul was not fully released, the seals were only partially removed, but there was more that was still sealed up.

  And he was using the chaos power to release the seals on her divine power bit by bit.

  “Little Xie, don’t be sad. Do you remember your grandfather, uncle and parents? They are waiting for you, continue to battle the God of Destruction so he cannot perform the Blood Sacrifice Array of the Three Realms. But he will not let off anyone who is close to you or I……” Jun Wu Yao wished he could go into battle with her, unfortunately……

  The images of her loved ones suddenly flashed through Jun Wu Xie’s mind. She looked up and the despair in her eyes was fading away.

  “Protect them, just as you have always done, I will be with you through it all.” Jun Wu Yao reached out his hand and placed it on Jun Wu Xie’s head, just like he had done countless times before……

  The black aura was gradually beginning to dissipate, starting with Jun Wu Xie’s head and moving to the rest of her body. She could see that it was being replaced with a golden glow……

  Fei Yan suddenly felt a strong force near him as he was running.

  It was not unfamiliar to him, he had already felt it previously at the palace.

  The proximity of this force seemed to indicate the fall of Qiao Chu and the rest. Fei Yan’s heart was so painful that he could hardly breathe, but he did not dare to stop running.

  He had been holding back tears for a while but could not hold them back any longer. As he continued running, the wind wicked the tears from his face, lost forever.

  Faster, even faster!

  Fei Yan berated himself for not being strong enough to bring Jun Wu Xie further away faster!

  He could not see it but he could feel the oppressiveness of the force and no matter how fast he ran, he could not increase the distance between himself and the force.

  When the force finally appeared from behind him, Fei Yan’s legs suddenly stopped.

  It was eerily quiet that it made his hair stand.

  “You can’t escape. How can humans fight with gods?” The God of Destruction appeared in front of Fei Yan, his handsome face had been distorted by hatred, leaving nothing good to speak of.

  His original golden eyes were bloodshot and looked like a stranger’s. He kept staring at Jun Wu Xie, his murderous intent blindingly obvious.

  “God? What God? I don’t believe in such things.” Fei Yan took a deep breath, having nowhere else to run finally allowed him to relax. He carefully put Jun Wu Xie down and although he could not see what was in front of him, stood in front of her as a shield.

  “If all gods are as greedy and cruel as you, then I believe that people would not only stop believing in them but would take great pleasure in killing them!” Fei Yan chuckled to himself.

  “Ah? You’re still so indignant. No matter, it won’t be long before you suffer the same fate as your friends, unable to move or talk. Resistance is futile, just give up Jun Wu Xie now and maybe I will allow you to suffer less.” The God of Destruction stood there and half smiled. His prey had nowhere to run to and he was in no rush to kill it yet.

  He took pleasure in allowing his prey to feel the crushing weight of hopelessness before they died.

  “In your dreams!” Fei Yan roared defiantly.

  The God of Destruction’s eyes flashed cold and said, “Stupid humans……always overestimating themselves.”


  As soon the God of Destruction’s words left his mouth, a golden bolt of light left his hands and flew towards Fei Yan like lightning!

  Although Fei Yan could not see, he could feel the danger coming towards him. But the attack was so fast that he could not take any evasive maneuvers.

  Just as Fei Yan was bracing himself to meet his end, that force suddenly vanished!

  At that moment, a force that was both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time appeared in front of him.

  As soon as the God of Destruction’s attack was diffused, Fei Yan could see its residue in front of him as a surprisingly gentle mist.

  “Yan’er, take a step back.” The cold and familiar voice made Fei Yan tremble.

  Fei Yan could not see anything but in that darkness, he felt an unbridled joy!

  “Little Xie!”


  That familiar voice clearly came from Jun Wu Xie!

  She was healed?

  Jun Wu Xie had stood in front of Fei Yan and extinguished the God of Destruction’s attack at the critical moment.

  Jun Wu Xie’s entire body was surrounded by a golden aura. It was neither blinding nor huge but it was so rich and mesmerising that nobody could ignore it.

  Standing behind Jun Wu Xie, Fei Yan could instantly feel the calming effect of her power. It was as if all the pain and unease he was feeling had disappeared.

  “Thank you for what you’ve done.” Jun Wu Xie smiled faintly at Fei Yan as she looked back at him.

  Yes, she still had people to protect. How could she be defeated so easily?

  Fei Yan could not help but smile from the reaches of his heart.

  Standing opposite Jun Wu Xie, the God of Destruction’s expression changed as soon as he saw her.

  He was a god and was familiar with god level powers. Earlier when she and Jun Wu Yao charged into the hall, he could sense that they were strong and even had some chaos power but he did not feel any pressure.

  But he did not know why he felt a strong sense of pressure when Jun Wu Xie appeared in front of him this time.

  That kind of pure divine power, which was gentle and seemed to envelope others felt harmless to most, but for the God of Destruction, it was an extremely unbearable softness!

  “Your power……why has it become stronger!” The God of Destruction stared at Jun Wu Xie in shock. He could not believe that not only did she not fall into despair after Jun Wu Yao’s death, she instead increased her power level exponentially!

  That power was reminiscent of the Great God that the God of Destruction saw many years ago.

  But……

  How was that possible?

  Jun Wu Xie slowly turned to look at the God of Destruction. When his eyes met her own golden gaze, it was not hate that could be seen in them but a cool, calm, indifference.

  “To kill a God.” Jun Wu Xie raised her chin slightly and looked at the God of Destruction with a cold, icy stare.

  “You claim to be a god but have long not been fit to be a god, much less the only god in the Three Realms. Today, I will have a taste of what it feels like to kill a god.” Jun Wu Xie stated matter of factly, her voice not betraying any emotion.

  The God of Destruction looked at Jun Wu Xie silently. The Jun Wu Xie in front of him seemed to have snapped out of the despair she was in when he last saw her. She now had an air of supreme confidence, which when combined with her newfound powers, made the God of Destruction feel a sense of oppression that he had never felt before.

  “Kill a God? You? Do you even know how you’ve managed to survive till now? What are you going to use to kill me? Hahaha!” The God of Destruction laughed loudly in spite of his unease, hoping to dispel those feelings with his bravado.

  “Kill a God? You? Do you even know how you’ve managed to survive till now? What are you going to use to kill me? Hahaha!” The God of Destruction laughed loudly in spite of his unease, hoping to dispel those feelings with his bravado.

  Jun Wu Xie looked unwaveringly at the laughing God of Destruction.

  “It was Ye Jue! It was him that helped you survive till now! But it’s a shame that he died trying to save you……”


  “Your abilities are exhausted.” Jun Wu Xie interrupted him, not allowing him to continue.

  The God of Destruction was stunned, he did not expect her to react that way. Her calm demeanor seemed to indicate that Ye Jue’s death meant nothing to her.

  “You really don’t feel anything for Ye Jue’s death? Ah……you’re really cold hearted.” The God of Destruction chuckled.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the God of Destruction and said matter of factly, “Everything you say is to try and hurt me, what do you want to talk about? Wu Yao’s death? Or that you’ve hurt my friends? Or maybe……you want to use my loved ones to threaten me?”


  Jun Wu Xie’s calm tone when dissecting the God of Destruction’s plan was as if she was talking about something that was unrelated to her.

  Her attitude was definitely not what the God of Destruction expected.

  Calm.

  Way too calm.

  The God of Destruction had a realisation, no matter how much he tried to anger Jun Wu Xie, she would not react. It was as if she had been transformed into an iceberg, looking at everything objectively.

  “Truly cold.” The God of Destruction narrowed his eyes and grit his teeth.

  This was not the result he wanted. He had wanted Jun Wu Xie to fall into endless suffering, not to be indifferent to everything.

  Jun Wu Xie wordlessly raised her hand and removed the Face of Selvan from her ear.

  The Face of Selvan were disguised as earrings and were small and icy to the touch. Jun Wu Xie held it in her palm and it started to exude a warm and gentle silver glow, turning into an exquisite mask.

  Jun Wu Xie continued to look at the God of Destruction indifferently and put the mask on her face.

  “The winner is king, that is the rule you’ve set in the Three Realms……well then, who will be the winner today?”


  The silver glow from the Face of Selvan combined with Jun Wu Xie’s own golden aura to create a single ray of light that covered her entire body. When the light subsided, Jun Wu Xie was wearing a pale golden suit of armour that had a silver insignia on it, the insignia was faintly discernible, like flickering light.

  A pair of golden wings suddenly spread from behind Jun Wu Xie!

  And surrounding these wings were golden flames!

  A strong divine power could be felt all around. The God of Destruction’s eyes opened even wider when he saw Jun Wu Xie put on the Face of Selvan.

  The Face of Selvan was the most important of all Jun Wu Yao’s precious weapons.

  “Enough with the idle chat, let’s fight!” Jun Wu Xie had no interest in dragging it out any longer and charged at the God of Destruction even before she had finished speaking those words.

  The God of Destruction did not know how to react to Jun Wu Xie’s sudden transformation and when she was rushing towards him, it felt to him like an unstoppable force!

  “Jun Wu Xie, don’t be too arrogant!” The God of Destruction grunted and a golden flame suddenly surrounded his body!

  The two beams of power collided in mid-air, fighting for supremacy like a pair of duelling dragons.

  Jun Wu Xie’s body was glowing light gold with her surge of power, and God of Destruction’s body was burning with a bright golden flame.

  The God of Destruction simply could not believe nor accept that Jun Wu Xie’s powers were on par with his.

  In reality, the God of Destruction was the God of the Three Realms. He had created it and it was his domain and Jun Wu Xie was part of that domain. However she was from another realm and her power had been sealed off while living in the Three Realms so there was no way to know how powerful she could become.

  That was why the God of Destruction dared to attack Jun Wu Xie. Earlier when she and Jun Wu Yao attacked through the hall, even their combined power was easily subdued by him. However the Jun Wu Xie he was facing now was entirely different and the change was too quick for him to have any sort of preparation.

  Jun Wu Xie gave the God of Destruction no time to think as she rushed offensively towards him, leaving only a golden shadow where her body just was.

  The God of Destruction could only brace himself, roar out loud and face the challenge head on!

  This was a battle to the death that was too close to call. Both parties were strong and the combat produced flashes of brilliant golden light that would have blinded any observers.

  Meanwhile, Fei Yan was surrounded by a golden forcefield, protecting him from all harm.

  Jun Wu Xie did that before the battle started to prevent him from being caught in the crossfire.

  The forcefield protected Fei Yan but also blocked off his ability to feel what was around him. He still could not see and hence could only listen to the deafening sounds of the battle. He wanted to stand up and help Jun Wu Xie but as he started to move, reason took over and he stopped and just stood there with his hands by his side.

  He knew that based on his power, he had no way of influencing a battle between two gods. At that moment, he prayed for the first time in his life, praying for Jun Wu Xie to emerge victorious and put an end to all the suffering.

  After Fei Yan had finished praying, a little halo emerged from the top of his head and suddenly started to make its way towards Jun Wu Xie!

  In the heat of battle, nobody noticed the tiny halo entering and merging with Jun Wu Xie’s body.

  This was a battle like no other before it, both had powers beyond anything else in the Three Realms. The battle sent shockwaves rippling through the Sacred City and people everywhere were shaken by the sounds.

  The ground shook beneath their feet and everyone came out of their houses, gathered on the main street and looked up to see the temple surrounded by explosions, and it seemed like the temple was being swallowed by the sun!

  The entire temple was shrouded in a surging golden light!

  The blinding light from the temple kept growing and soon, it enveloped the entire Sacred City.

  Only a few days had passed since the selection of the current Top Ten masters and those who were not from the Sacred City had already left. Those who remained felt very weak under the glow of the golden light. No matter how strong, anybody would pale in comparison to the strength being shown in that battle.

  Their spiritual power seemed to be agitated by some unknown force and it constantly churned inside their bodies!

  Bai Mo and Nangong Lie were walking on the street and saw the strange scene in front of them. Both of them were completely dumbfounded.

  “What is going on?” Bai Mo asked while looking at the rapidly expanding stream of light that before long would cover the entire city.

  “I don’t know either.” Nangong Lie’s face was a little pale. He had earlier received news about Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao storming the Holy Temple, leaving a sea of blood in their wake. When he passed the information on to Qiao Chu and the rest, they immediately rushed to the Holy Temple themselves.

  He and Bai Mo had intended to go with them but were rejected. They were going there to fight to the death and if Bai Mo and Nangong Lie went with them, they would surely die as well.

  They instructed Bai Mo and Nangong Lie, in the event of their death, to immediately leave the Sacred City and take Rong Ruo with them to the Lower Realms where they might have a chance of survival.

  “Do you think Fan Zhuo and the rest are alright?” Bai Mo felt an uneasiness that was turning into dread in his heart. He had always felt confident of his power but under the glow of the light, felt utterly weak and powerless.

  This was a kind of power that was above all other types of power and it was laughable for anyone to think they could stand up to it.

  Bai Mo and Nangong Lie were still quite a distance away from the expanding light but even with that distance they could feel the power coming from it. Nobody would ever dare dream of fighting against such power!

  It instilled a fear that was indescribable with words and caused people to tremble uncontrollably.

  “I don’t know but no matter what we must be ready to leave with Rong Ruo in case anything happens.” Nangong Lie furrowed his eyebrows, already prepared for the worst.

  “I hope they are alright.” Bai Mo gritted his teeth. In that moment, he hated his own weakness but he also knew that even if his power was doubled, it would not have made a difference.

  The golden light was still expanding over the city and all the so called experts found themselves in an unbelievable situation!

  There was something in the golden light that when they came into contact with it, gave them a surge and pushed them to peak power in no time at all!

  This sudden change was difficult for them to process and what was even more surprising was that under the light, their growth was exponential!

  It was a shame that……

  Even before they could rejoice in their sudden increase in strength, their power was extracted from their bodies as soon as it reached its peak!

  One by one their powers came out of the bodies as beams of light and headed towards the temple.

  In an instant their ecstacy turned to unbridled fear and they could only howl in fright as they tried to escape the light. But with their strength being continuously sucked out of their bodies, they could only rely on their legs to take them away as fast as they could run!

  But they could not run nearly as fast as the light was expanding and in no time at all, the nightmare disguised as a golden dream had swallowed everyone in its path!

  Bai Mo and Nangong Lie were still a distance away from the light but could hear the screams of pain coming from those who were inside it and sensed great danger. They both felt their powers heightened and decided at the same time to start escaping the Sacred City!……

  Inside the Holy Temple, Jun Wu Xie and the God of Destruction were locked in a fierce battle that shook the earth and made thunderous noises with each clash. The beautiful and ornate buildings in the temple could not withstand the force of the battle and were being turned into rubble.

  Dust and ash were flying everywhere and in a short time, the once incomparably beautiful Holy Temple became a barren battlefield.

  The hall was collapsing and the guards feared for their lives. In their panic, they forgot they had to control Han Zifei and Jun Gu. In order to save their lives, they untied Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu, and ran out of the hall as fast as they could.

  Han Zifei and Jun Gu, who themselves did not have an easy route to freedom, were in no rush to escape. They quickly picked up Qiao Chu and the rest and managed to get them out of the hall just as the entire hall collapsed!

  However, nobody cared about the badly injured Feng Ming. He could only sit in the hall and hopelessly look up at it collapsing onto him with.

  With a loud crash, the hall turned into a pile of rubble and buried the filthy soul of Feng Ming within it.

  When Han Zi Fei and the rest walked out of the hall, they were shocked by the scene that awaited them.

  After the golden light passed through it, the once prosperous city was no more and looked like a wasteland. The people who had come out of their houses were now corpses on the ground, their faces frozen in agony as their power was ripped out of their bodies and absorbed by the golden light.

  “What is that?” Jun Gu asked while supporting Fan Zhuo and Qiao Chu in each arm as he looked at the carnage and destruction in front of him.

  Han Zi Fei was troubled, she was carrying Hua Yao on her back and her clothes were soaked with Hua Yao’s blood, making it cool to the touch. What troubled Han Zi Fei was the guards’ strange situation.

  “I’m not sure but I have a feeling something bad is happening.” Han Zi Fei’s heart was beating fast as a sense of uneasiness washed over her.

  In a flash, the guards were turned into corpses in front of their very eyes. All their strength and power were sucked out of their bodies by the golden light, accompanied by screams of pain.

  Han Zi Fei’s uneasiness reached its peak in an instant. She could feel her spiritual body increasing rapidly and instead of bringing her joy, it filled her with a fear for her survival!

  “This is terrible! It’s an integrated reincarnation spell!” She exclaimed as the colour drained from her face.

  She was a Sacred Maiden from the Sacred Maiden Tribe. The previous two Sacred Maidens had served at the side of the God of Destruction. If Han Zi Fei hadn’t discovered the God of Destruction’s plan back then and escaped from the Upper Realms earlier, she might have been sent to the God of Destruction’s side just like the other two before her.

  In any case, she had been taught from a young age to serve the God of Destruction and so over the years had much contact with him and understood many of his secrets.

  Back then, she thought he was just a cruel master and not the God of Destruction who wanted to destroy the world!

  “Integrated reincarnation spell? What is that?” Jun Gu furrowed his eyebrows, feeling the same uneasiness as Han Zi Fei.

  Han Zi Fei looked very uncomfortable, she was constantly shifting her spiritual energy within her body, trying to counteract the spell but it was not having any effect.

  “This is a spell of the God of Destruction that extracts the spiritual power and life force of anyone in its path and sends it to the God of Destruction to be absorbed into his own body. If he is using it, it means that Little Xie has recovered and is overpowering him.”


  “According to what you’ve just said, then everyone’s power will be part of the God of Destruction’s. That would put Little Xie in grave danger!” Jun Gu shook his head, instead of rejoicing at his daughter’s recovery, the news filled him with even more worry.

  Han Zi Fei remained silent. Although she knew what the spell was, she did not know how to break it.

  At that moment, they could feel their spiritual power reaching its peak and start to leave their bodies uncontrollably. Moreover their feet felt like they were stuck to the ground, unable to move even an inch.

  Before long, they would be just like those guards, corpses on the ground……

  Fear and helplessness ruled their hearts as they could only wait for their impending death.

  However……

  Just when things were at their most dire, two light golden circles appeared and encircled both of them and also Qiao Chu and the rest!

  After the two golden circles came to rest upon them, they could feel their spiritual power and bodies return to normal as the circles protected them from the external forces.

  “This power……” Jun Gu looked around at the golden hue that was now surrounding them. It brought a sense of peace to both their bodies and spiritual power and it also brought with it a sense of familiarity and intimacy.

  “It’s Little Xie.” Han Zi Fei began to choke up as she felt the familiar presence of their daughter. Even in the heat of battle, she had not only remembered them but even used a part of her power to protect them.

  “I hope Little Xie can get through this trial, I only pray for her safe return.” Jun Gu said worriedly, his heart filled with concern for their daughter.

  Their child had already gone through too much and they were not strong enough to help her. They could only pray for her victory over the God of Destruction!……

  On the battlefield, the God of Destruction’s power kept increasing. In the face of Jun Wu XIe’s attack, not only was it not diminishing but seemed to be growing and the look on his face was only getting more and more crazy.

  “Jun Wu XIe, you cannot defeat me! By using the integrated reincarnation spell, I’m only getting stronger! The powers of all your friends and loved ones are now part of the power that I will use to crush you!” The God of Destruction stared at Jun Wu Xie with bloodshot eyes.

  He had to admit that Jun Wu Xie had become extremely powerful, but……

  This was his battleground!

  He had already given up on the Blood Sacrifice of the Three Realms. Even without Jun Wu Yao to break through the void, he could still absorb the power of everyone in the Three Realms and in doing so, become someone that was feared by all!

  Jun Wu Xie stared coldly at the manic God of Destruction. In the midst of the battle, she could clearly feel his powers increasing and what he said made the gravity of the situation even clearer.

  She had already guessed the God of Destruction’s plan and sent out some of her power to protect Han Zi Fei and the rest. But her powers were only being depleted and could only protect people within a certain range, if they left the Holy City she was not sure if she could continue to protect them.

  The God of Destruction must be stopped!

  He had to be stopped before his spell reached the entire Three Realms!

  Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath and attacked the God of Destruction once again!

  The battle to end all battles continued to rage on and the God of Destruction’s power kept increasing. Power came from all around as it was used by the God of Destruction to defeat Jun Wu Xie. Something had changed in this previously one-sided battle.

  Although Jun Wu Xie’s power had grown tremendously, it was not growing anymore and it was difficult to keep fighting against the God of Destruction whose power was ever increasing.

  I cannot lose!

  Jun Wu Xie had a look of steely determination in her eyes and even when faced with the ever growing power of the God of Destruction, showed no signs of fear or retreat.

  [Little Xie, you are not battling alone.]

  A familiar voice suddenly emanated from her soul!

  After a moment’s stunned silence, a figure appeared behind Jun Wu Xie. The figure had no warmth or sense of familiarity to it but somehow still gave her a sense of peace.

  [You still have us fighting by your side.] The figure hugged her from the back and held her outstretched hands as if giving her a boost of power.

  In the instant that their hands touched, blinding silver light came from all directions and went straight towards Jun Wu Xie’s body.

  Each ball of light, by itself, held little power. But they were arriving in such huge numbers and being absorbed into Jun Wu Xie’s body one by one. With each ball of light, Jun Wu Xie could clearly feel her power levels growing!

  [Gods exist because of faith. The ones whom you have protected are now protecting you in return.] Jun Wu Yao started to smile as the silhouette of his body started to blur as it melted into a giant ball of light that reconstituted itself into her body once again.

  While this was happening, in the Lower Realms……

  Countless crowds gathered together, Jun Xian, Jun Qing, Qu Lingyue, Lei Chen, Mo Qianyuan, Bai Yunxian ……

  There are countless soldiers of the Ruilin Army and the Iron Blood Army.

  At this moment with them all gathered together. There was a person among them with a bright halo all over his body – Tian Ze.

  Tian Ze suddenly coughed up some blood and his body started convulsing. He started to speak but the voice that came out was that of Jun Wu Yao.

  [Little Xie needs you, please send your faith to her.]

  Those were Jun Wu Yao’s final words to the people.

  Tian Ze had once used a drop of Jun Wu Yao’s blood and after Jun Wu Yao’s self explosion, that drop of blood had become a final conduit to his soul and he used that to convey his final wish.

  Their faith……

  Those words puzzled Jun Xian and the rest for a moment before they suddenly gained clarity.

  They immediately mobilized everyone but did not know how to convey their faith. After a moment, they tried praying, praying for Jun Wu Xie’s victory. When little balls of light emerged from their heads and floated up to the skies, they finally understood.

  This……

  This was the power of faith that Jun Wu Yao spoke of.

  And this power would carry their prayers and faith up to Jun Wu Xie.

  The unification of the Lower Realms allowed everyone to be mobilised in such a short time, and was made easier due to the soldiers and fast horses of the Ruilin army.

  Before long, all in the Lower Realms put down whatever they were doing and whether kneeling or standing, conveyed their sincere faith through prayers.

  The power of an innumerable faiths combined, went up into the sky, pierced the clouds and went straight to the Upper Realm!

  Simultaneously, in the Sea Spirit City, Ye Gu and everyone else also felt Jun Wu Yao’s final wish. They knew what it implied and were heartbroken. But for now, they pushed their despair aside as the Night Regime, Ghost Army and everyone else in the city started to pray in order to send their faith above.

  They were created by Jun Wu Yao and each had a piece of his soul in them. Their prayers carried more weight than others’ as they carried a piece of Jun Wu Yao’s godly power with it and affected all that surrounded them.

  The Sea Spirit Beasts who lived in the Sea of Death, not far from the Sea Spirit City, also felt the danger that was upon them. In their own unique way, they let out their cries and soon balls of light emerged from the sea and started flying towards the direction of the Sacred City.

  Ghost Realm, Soul Realm …… Countless forces of faith started to travel through space and fly up.

  This was the power and faith of good.

  And also their faith in life.

  The God of Destruction’s attacks on Jun Wu Xie were becoming more intense. The power he was absorbing from his spell was the weapon in defeating her.

  However……

  Just at the moment that the God of Destruction thought he was going to send Jun Wu Xue to hell.

  Flashes of warm light appeared in the sky and flew towards Jun Wu Xie’s body, being absorbed into it.

  The flashes of light came from all directions and started raining onto Jun Wu Xie like a storm!

  The God of Destruction’s eyes became as big as saucers as he watched the little balls of light get absorbed into Jun Wu Xie’s body and her divine power increased with every ball of light.

  Her power, which was just a moment ago, being consumed by the God of Destruction now seemed to be threatening to overpower him!

  “How is this possible! Jun Wu Xie, what the hell did you do!!!” The God of Destruction roared incredulously, unable to understand what was going on in front of him.

  Jun Wu XIe was not from this world, no matter how powerful she was, she should not have been able to absorb power from this world!

  But the God of Destruction’s belief was being destroyed in front of his very eyes!

  How could that be?

  How could Jun Wu Xie take in power from this world?

  It was impossible!

  However, the impossible was happening and Jun Wu Xie’s power was growing rapidly.

  Those continuous balls of light were adding to her power and pushing her to new heights.

  “I’ve done things that you, calling yourself a God, would never deign worthy to do!” Jun Wu Xie’s body was being filled with a warm and gentle power that was coming from all the people she had interacted with. It was all their help and support that would help her defeat the God of Destruction!

  This would be the last battle ever in Three Realms!

  The God of Destruction had no regard for life, treating humans like weeds while Jun Wu Xie had always tried to protect humanity in the world.

  And the world was now repaying them in the same manner.

  Jun Wu Yao may have had left the world, but he used his dying breath to tell everyone of the battle’s importance.

  It was his final gift of love to Jun Wu Xie.

  To give it their all!

  “Impossible! I am a God! I am the God of this world! You can never defeat me!” The God of Destruction was consumed by madness and kept using the integrated reincarnation spell to try and gain more power.

  However……

  All the people who had felt threatened before had already escaped.

  All those who had not yet been consumed by the golden light had used all their spiritual power to escape.

  There was an endless forest near the Sacred City that was barren all around it. After all the people had escaped, the spell was expanding fast but it still needed time and enough people to capture as a foundation.

  On the other hand, the power of faith that Jun Wu Xie was receiving was being given to her out of peoples’ own free will, she neither needed to fight nor snatch to get it. All she needed to do was to accept it into her body.

  This would be pivotal in deciding the final outcome.

  The increase of the God of Destruction’s power started to slow down while Jun Wu Xie’s kept increasing rapidly. The purity and warmth of the power of faith was the source of her power.

  Jun Wu Xie’s attacks started to become more fierce and the God of Destruction was growing weaker and more vulnerable under the barrage of attacks.

  The moment that Jun Wu Xie was going to defeat the God of Destruction had finally arrived!

  As the God of Destruction fell heavily to the ground, the arrogance he had built up over thousands of years had been completely destroyed and for the first time, fear was showing in his golden eyes. He stared at Jun Wu Xie, unable to believe that he had been defeated by someone from outside of this world.

  He could not believe that he would be defeated by someone whom he had always treated as a pawn in his plans.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at the fallen God of Destruction whose distraught face had fear all over it. But her own face did not show any trace of joy.

  There was no joy, no excitement, only calmness.

  “I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it!” The God of Destruction stood up once more but his stature was somewhat diminished, he was severely weakened by Jun Wu Xie’s attacks and the integrated reincarnation spell had also worn off leaving him even weaker.

  “How could you have beaten me? With what?!” The God of Destruction wailed at Jun Wu Xie like he was in mourning.

  Jun Wu Xie pushed him from the altar into the mud and in that moment, his pride, built up over many years, was destroyed along with his dirty and greedy soul.

  “You still don’t understand?” Jun Wu Xie said to him coldly.

  The God of Destruction gritted his teeth and asked, “Understand?”


  “The world is just returning the treatment that you gave to them.” Jun Wu Xie said matter of factly.

  The God of Destruction sneered, “This world? I am the God of this world and it’s mine to do with as I please! I created everything in it and if I want to kill, nobody can do anything about it! Hahaha!”


  To him, it was ludicrous that the world he created was now abandoning him.

  Jun Wu Xie was nonplussed at his obstinate expression, in that moment she only felt sadness for him.

  “I am a God! I am a God!” He started hollering, as if that was the only way to preserve his last shred of dignity as a God.

  However, his misguided pride only made Jun Wu Xie feel even more sad for him.

  Gods created everything but they could not control everything. All beings in the world were born with free will and from that moment on, with their feelings, hopes and desires, should never be used by Gods as chess pieces.

  The wings on Jun Wu Xie’s back were flapping gently, suspending her in mid air.

  The God of Destruction on the other hand, had lost the strength to fly and could only look at Jun Wu Xie with hatred.

  “If a God is like you, it’s better to have no God at all.” Jun Wu Xie raised her sword of light high and concentrated all the power in her body into it.

  She struck swiftly and suddenly.

  Powered by all the faith and belief from the three realms, it struck straight through his chest like a bolt from heaven!

  Instantly!

  The God of Destruction had a look of unbearable pain on his face and his eyes were wide with disbelief but he had no strength to return to the skies.

  Everything in front of him started to go blurry, including Jun Wu Xie, the person he hated most.

  He collapsed suddenly, thousands of years of memories flashing before his eyes.

  In a time long ago, he was in charge of destruction and looked down at the Three Realms from the heavens, laughing at their stupidity and ignorance but was chided by the God of Light.

  From their perch, they could see the temples that the people built for them.

  They could see the people that they created, kneeling down inside those temples, offering up prayer and song in return for their kindness and benevolence.

  At the same time, the God of Destruction was struggling to remain conscious.

  He saw that from the devotees in the temples, tiny dots of light emerged from their heads and flew up to paradise which served as nourishment for the Gods.

  So……

  That was it.

  A bitter smile formed on the God of Destruction’s mouth.

  He finally understood what he had been neglecting and also the reason for his defeat.

  It was the power of faith.

  Gods created people but it was people through their faith and adoration, that elevated the Gods who helped them.

  In the end, the God of Destruction was defeated.

  He was not defeated at the hands of Jun Wu Xie alone, but by the hands of the souls that were abandoned by him.

  The faith that he had dismissed earlier was the very thing that led to his downfall.

  The God of Destruction gradually grew weaker. He finally closed his eyes and rays of light started to leak out from his body and finally, his body returned to the ground that he had created.

  Jun Wu Xie gently eased herself onto the ground as she watched the God of Destruction’s body disappear. The Selvan armour came off her body and turned back into an ear pin that she could hold in the palm of her hand.

  She held the pin in her hand and unconsciously tightened her grip until it pierced her skin but she did not feel any pain.

  As she watched the golden light that covered the Holy City slowly fade away, she felt no joy on the inside.

  She was victorious but did not feel happy at all.

  The God of Destruction was dead and the Three Realms had its salvation.

  But……

  She had lost her lover, who could never be replaced.

  “I won, we’ve won.” She unclenched her fist and looked at the Face of Selvan which retained its beauty even though it was stained by her blood.

  Warm tears rolled down her face and fell into her palm, mixing with her blood. She was a picture of pain and sadness.

  “Can……I cry now?” She whispered to nobody as the tears started dripping off her face, showing her hopelessness.

  She had won but she would never get him back.

  It was not the victory she wanted.

  She was like a child, squatting helplessly on the ground. Heaving and crying but the pressure made her feel like choking and there was no sound.

  When she was fighting, there was no room to feel sad or unhappy.

  Who would ease her pain now that the battle was over?

  She may have won the battle but she felt a huge hole in her heart which was the most painful wound she had ever felt.

  In the midst of the destruction, Fei Yan felt that the danger had passed. He heard the entire exchange between Jun Wu Xie and the God of Destruction and knew that it was all over. But……

  Where was Little Xie?

  Fei Yan started wandering around until finally, he felt Jun Wu Xie.

  Who was squatting on the ground, sobbing silently.

  “LIttle Xie……” Fei Yan said, at a loss of how to continue.

  Nobody could understand Jun Wu Xie’s hurt and pain at losing a loved one as well as he could.

  Fei Yan did not say another word. He squatted next to her and held her in his arms, comforting his friend in his own way.

  Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu had rushed to the scene and could see Jun Wu Xie being held by Fei Yan from afar.

  Both their hearts became heavy when they saw that Jun Wu Xie had won but lost Jun Wu Yao in the process.

  The world had been liberated thanks to her but she would forever be living with those demons with no hope for salvation.

  The two looked at each other silently and walked over to Jun Wu Xie. Han Zi Fei put Hua Yao down to one side and embraced Jun Wu Xie as well.

  “Don’t cry my child……Wu Yao would not have wanted to see you this way.” Han Zi Fei put aside her own pain and held her daughter. She knew that no matter what she said, it would not be of use in that moment.

  Jun Wu Xie lost an irreplaceable lover.

  Jun Gu stood there clenching his fists, not knowing what to say. No language in the world had the words to express the situation.

  Victory had not brought joy, just a pervasive sadness.

  The blood red mist was slowly starting to recede from the Three Realms and sunlight started to bathe the land in a fresh dawn.

  However the sunlight brought no warmth to Jun Wu Xie’s heart.

  Just as everyone was wallowing in sadness, a bright ray of light pierced through the sky and a figure surrounded by a golden aura appeared.

  When they saw the figure, everyone was shaken out of their stupor.

  Could it be that the God of Destruction was not dead?

  When the figure walked out of the circle of light, everyone was stunned.

  Out of the light appeared an extremely handsome man with golden eyes, smiling and looking warm and friendly.

  “I guess a pathway has been opened.” The handsome man looked at the mess around him and sighed involuntarily.

  “The destructive power here is on par with that brat, Satan’s.”


  “Who are you?” Jun Gu asked the stranger while standing in front of his wife and daughter to shield them.

  The man sensed Jun Gu’s apprehension and tried to wave him off, laughing, “Don’t be anxious, I am not a bad person. I’m here to look for her.” He pointed to Jun Wu Xie who was still within the embrace of Han Zi Fei.

  Jun Gu frowned slightly and exchanged a look with Han Zi Fei.

  Han Zi Fei took a step forward, “Just who are you exactly?”


  The man laughed, “I am a God but not one of this world. I have transcended these worlds and am part of the God World. I am here at someone’s request but also to help Miss Wu Xie fulfill her destiny.”


  “What do you mean?” Han Zi Fei stared cautiously at the person in front of her. If it was not for him not exhibiting even the slightest hostility, she would have really suspected that the person was there to cause trouble.

  “I think……it might be more appropriate for me to talk to Wu Xie herself.” The man said with some difficulty.

  Han Zi Fei hesitated a moment and released Jun Wu Xie from her embrace after exchanging a knowing look with Jun Gu.

  Jun Wu Xie’s eyes were bloodshot from all the crying but was stunned when she saw the person in front of her.

  “It’s been a while.” The man looked at Jun Wu Xie somewhat wistfully.

  “It’s you?” Jun Wu Xie was stunned.

  “Little Wu Xie, do you know him?” Han Zi Fei asked with caution.

  Jun Wu Xie replied, “I can’t say that I do but I have seen him in a dream before.”


  In the environment created by the Spirit Tree, other than Jun Wu Yao, there was a child. That child had golden eyes who always had a smile on his face unlike Jun Wu Yao. The face before her was as she remembered it albeit more mature.

  Han Zi Fei and Jun Gu were not totally clear about what was going on but if Jun Wu Xie had met him before, then he was probably not an enemy.

  “I’m so happy that you still remember me.” The man smiled and scratched the back of his head. “I have received many blessings from you but have not had the time to thank you. However we have many days ahead of us for that and for now, let’s talk about the matter at hand.”


  “What is this all about?” Jun Wu Xie asked suspiciously.

  The man replied, “It’s like this. I come from the God’s World, which is the final destination for the most outstanding Gods of each world. The one you just defeated wrecked such destruction in an attempt to enter our world. He should have been our problem to deal with but the laws of our world forbid us from interfering with matters of our original world or any other world once we are inside.”


  “But to let him continue unabated would have resulted in irreparable damage. So we had no choice but to ask you to deal with him, we are sorry for the suffering you have endured.” The man continued abashedly.

  In order to enter the God’s World, Gods are selected based on a strict criteria and only allowed to enter if they meet the stringent conditions.

  The God of Destruction was finding ways and means to enter but did not realise that his actions broke the rules of the God’s World and threw the Three Realms off balance.

  The Gods in the God’s World discussed how to solve the problem of the God of Destruction and they decided to let the soul of the previous messenger of God into the world to rid it of this evil and Jun Wu Xie was the chosen one.

  Jun Wu Xie used to be the guide of the Gods. When the world of the handsome man and Jun Wu Yao first appeared, it was she who qualified them to be Gods. In her soul, there was the power of a God but as she had been reincarnated, she was no longer bound by the rules of the God’s World.

  “You are saying that it was you who arranged for me to come to this world? Then Wu Yao……” Jun Wu Xie’s mind was racing, if she had been sent here by others, was Jun Wu Yao as well?

  “Ah him, he was a disobedient one and did many bad things in our world. So in order to punish him, we sent him to this world to do some penance and saving the world with you was his path to redemption.”


  “Redemption? Your redemption involves the destruction of his soul?” Jun Wu Xie felt the anger rising within her.

  The man saw her anger and raised his hands up in defence, saying, “Don’t worry! That was what he needed to endure but he has already paid for his past misdeeds, so……”


  The man raised his hand and a dark coloured flame appeared in his palm.

  “Since he has atoned, he can now be reborn.” With a flourish of his hand, he dropped the flame on to the ground and once it hit the ground, the flame expanded and transformed into the form of a man!

  When the man’s final form had taken shape, Jun Wu Xie’s eyes widened and rushed into his arms without a moment’s hesitation!

  “I’m back.” The newly reincarnated Jun Wu Yao held Jun Wu Xie in his arms as tight as he could, the look in his eyes saying he never wanted to let go.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded her head silently while in Jun Wu Yao’s embrace, an indescribable joy filling every corner of her heart.

  “Now, isn’t everything alright again?” The man said with a big smile.

  Jun Wu Yao looked at the man, his eyes filled with contempt.

  The man just shrugged.

  Jun Wu Yao’s return dispelled the gloom from everyone’s hearts. They were all happy for Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao.

  “Erm……you two can reconnect later, we have important business to discuss now.” The man could not help but disturb the long suffering lovers.

  Jun Wu Yao looked coldly at the man, for some inexplicable reason, whenever he saw that constantly smiling face, he always had the urge to punch it in.

  “Don’t look at me like that. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have the chance to reunite with Li……ah Wu Xie.” The man hummed.

  “If you have something to say, just say it.” Jun Wu Yao did not appreciate the sentiment.

  The man pouted, he and Jun Wu Yao just could not get along. He then turned to Jun Wu Xie and said, “Although the so-called God of Destruction has been destroyed and the Three Realms has returned to peace, the havoc he caused will not be fixed so easily. Since your powers have been restored and have also earned the faith of the people of this world, you need to step in for the missing Gods of this world and protect it.”


  “What?” Jun Wu Xie was shocked.

  “Eh……we hope you return but for now you need to be the God of this world and guide it back to normalcy.” The man said.

  Jun Wu Xie was silent but Jun Wu Yao retorted, “Why should she?”


  The corner of the man’s mouth twitched, he was still just as annoying even after so many reincarnations! He really did not understand why he was with Jun Wu Xie.

  “I wasn’t asking you, I was asking Wu Xie.” the man replied.

  Jun Wu Yao gave a cold scoff.

  Jun Wu Xie was frowning slightly, she did not seem too interested in the plan laid out by the man. She just wanted to find a quiet, scenic mountain to live out the rest of her days with Jun Wu Yao.

  The man saw her hesitation and said with a smile, “Don’t be too quick to say no. If you become the God of this world, you can make all your loved ones, even those who have passed, Gods of this world as well to protect the world with you.”


  Jun Wu Xie was a little tempted as she thought of Rong Ruo, Yan Bu Gui and the rest.

  “Furthermore, I’m not supposed to tell you this but you can even see the girl who lost her life for you in a previous life.” The man threw another enticement at Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie’s eyes turned wide in amazement, “Xiao Xiao?!”


  The man smiled and nodded his head, “Yes, she is now the main God in our world and if you become a God, you can surely see each other.”


  Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath and said to the man, “Alright, I agree.”


  The man smiled contentedly, completely oblivious to Jun Wu Yao’s contemptuous look.

  “So we leave this world to you, hopefully you can restore its balance and peace.” The man raised his hands and two bursts of golden light flew from his fingertips and entered Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao’s bodies between their eyebrows.

  Little Yang, do you think your own disagreement is all that matters? If Jun Wu Xie says yes, Jun Wu Yao would not ever disagree.

  The man was very proud of himself for succeeding in his ploy.

  When the divine power entered through their eyebrows, they both felt it permeate their whole body and awaken a strange sensation within them……

  The Gods’ Paradise.

  Two years had passed since that man appeared and Jun Wu Xie was observing the Three Realms through the God mirror, happy that balance had been restored and the people were happy. She was stroking Little Black in her lap when a sphere suddenly rolled next to her leg.

  She looked down at it and was stunned by what she saw.

  A pair of sorrowful, pleading eyes belonging to Lord Meh Meh were looking up at Jun Wu Xie, tugging at her skirt.

  Before Jun Wu Xie could understand what was going on, she spotted a fair and tender little doll walking drunkenly towards her side, as the little baby grabbed Sacrificial Blood Rabbit in a hold by its tail. The little baby opened its toothless mouth to make some babbling sounds and waved its hands at a bleating Lord Meh Meh who was seeking refuge at Jun Wu Xie’s feet.

  “Meh meh meh!” Lord Meh Meh shouted in fright as the baby came closer.

  Just as the baby was about to pick up Lord Meh Meh, a large figure appeared behind him and scooped the baby up.

  “Ahhh……” The baby released Sacrificial Blood Rabbit’s tail from its hand and continued to make a humming sound.

  The baby looked up, saw Jun Wu Yao’s handsome face and stopped making a fuss.

  “You shouldn’t have agreed to his suggestion, I told you he was up to no good.” Jun Wu Yao held his baby and walked up next to his wife with an exasperated look on his face.

  After they accepted the proposal, both of them became the Gods of this world and Jun Wu Xie summoned the souls of Yan Bu Gui and the rest to become Gods inn to assist to protect the world.

  However……

  It was no easy feat to bring order to a world that was in such a mess. Even with Qiao Chu and the rest helping, Jun Wu Yao found himself busy beyond expectation and could not find time to spend with his wife. Even the baby that he was holding was born out of stealing some time away.

  Jun Wu Xie looked up at her husband and child, her eyes filled with happiness.

  When the baby saw its mother, it immediately waved its hands in the air asking for a hug, totally disregarding it’s father.

  “Aren’t Little Lotus and the rest helping too?” Jun Wu Xie chuckled.

  Jun Wu Yao sighed, their Ring Spirits had become God Ring Spirits, greatly increasing in power, not to mention their own God Powers. The Soul World had been reopened and the Three Realms had also gradually changed. Just that……

  “But you’ve been spending less time with me.” Jun Wu Yao complained.

  Jun Wu Xie couldn’t help but chuckle at Jun Wu Yao’s pitiful face and waved him close. When he leaned in, he felt a warm and gentle touch on his cheek.

  “We still have a long time ahead of us.” Jun Wu Xie said with a smile.

  Jun Wu Yao broke into a smile as well and took Jun Wu Xie into her arms, “No matter how long, it won’t be long enough.”


  As the child of two gods, all Jun Mo Ye wanted to do everyday was climb on to Lord Meh Meh, hug Blood Sacrificial Rabbit under the sun and watch the stars with her uncle, the Heavenly Imperial Snow Lotus.

  She was only three years old but already had a dilemma.

  She had followed her parents to her grandparents house but……

  “Mother, why do I have two maternal grandfathers?” Jun Mo Ye looked up at her mother who was cradling her, confusion written all over her cherubic face.

  Everyone in the Jun family was gathered in the great hall of the Jun residence, enjoying each other’s company. However when the innocent child asked that question, the entire hall fell into silence.

  Jun Xian, whose energy beguiled his white haired appearance, looked at his confused granddaughter, turned his gaze to Jun Gu and Han Zi Fei and coughed to attract their attention.

  Jun Gu was momentarily at a loss and did not know what to do.

  Over four years ago, after the God of Destruction had been defeated and the Three Realms returned to peace, Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao left the Three Realms to reside in the Heavenly Realm. Jun Gu and Han Zi Fei then returned to the Lower Three Realms to live with Jun Xian, Jun Qing and the others in the Jun residence. Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao visited occasionally and even though distance was no longer an issue with their powers, each visit was still cherished by all.

  “Little Ye Ye, why do you ask?” Han Zi Fei looked at her husband’s state with amusement, smiled at the child and reached out her hand saying, “Come to grandmother.”


  After receiving a nod of approval from her mother, Jun Mo Ye slowly made her way to her grandmother’s side, asking to be picked up.

  “I saw a grandfather in a room in the courtyard.” Jun Mo Ye looked at his grandmother with her dark gold eyes as she said it.

  Instantly, the entire family understood what was going on.

  When Jun Gu was chosen by the God of Destruction, he was given a new body. When he and Han Zi Fei returned to the Lower Realm, he discovered that his original body had been kept in good condition by the family. However, his soul had stabilized in his current body and transferring it might have had negative side effects so after discussing with the family, the decision was made to remain in his current body.

  As for his original body, nobody in the family was willing to get rid of it even though it was just an empty shell. In any case, with Jun Wu Xie’s power protecting it, the body was incorruptible. So it just sat in a room in the courtyard and a servant would clean it regularly.

  Jun Gu always felt a little awkward regarding this matter and whenever he saw his other self lying motionless on the bed, he always felt a little breathless with awe.

  Since neither his father nor his wife was willing to put that body into the ground, he had no choice but to get used to it.

  As the years passed, Jun Gu had all but forgotten about it and did not expect his granddaughter to discover it.

  “That’s your grandfather too. He has two bodies and can switch them whenever one is tired. Isn’t he great?” Han Zi Fei smiled at her granddaughter.

  Jun Gu looked at his wife’s evil sense of humour but did not say anything.

  Jun Mo Ye however, believed every word and looked at his grandfather with great admiration, making Jun Gu feel superhuman.

  Seeing Han Zi Fei put a smile on Jun Mo Ye’s face, Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao could not help but chuckle along.

  Jun Mo Ye’s confusion was solved, but Jun Xian seemed to suddenly think of something, and turned to look at Jun Qing who was smiling.

  “You still dare to laugh?! Your brother’s granddaughter is already so old, how about you? Jun Xian looked at his younger, less accomplished son while stroking his beard.

  Due to Jun Wu Xie’s intervention, nobody in the Jun family aged. Jun Xian, despite looking only like he was in his twenties, he was much older than that.

  In the midst of the family’s happiness, Jun Xian could not help but feel sorry for his youngest son. In terms of both character or looks, he was not lacking but after so many years, he remained single and could not find a suitable mate.

  In the past when Jun Xian broached the topic of marriage, Jun Qing brushed it aside, saying he wanted to help Jun Wu Xie stabilize the Three Realms. Now that peace reigned over the Three Realms, that excuse no longer held water!

  Seeing that his father was bringing up such an unwelcome topic, Jun Qing could no longer smile.

  “Well……” Jun QIng’s mouth remained open for a while but nothing was coming out.

  Jun Xian was not going to let him off that easily and said sternly, “Enough with your excuses. If you do not find a wife in three months, I will find one for you and don’t blame me if she isn’t a ravishing beauty.”


  Jun Qing looked at his father half crying and half smiling. He always got like this when Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao came home with their baby but this time he seemed resolute and there was no delaying it anymore.

  But……

  Jun Qing had no views on such matters but there was one thing he knew.

  Whenever he saw Jun Mo Ye, he always had the urge to have a child of his own.

  However……

  How do you have a child if you don’t have a wife?

  Jun Xian continued to nag on and Jun Qing could only lower his head and look towards his siblings for help but they were too preoccupied with playing with Jun Mo Ye to notice his cries for help.

  But Han Zi Fei noticed his predicament and said, “Little Wu Xie, if I remember correctly, Yue Ye is still your disciple right?”


  Jun Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, she did not expect her mother to bring up Yue Ye.

  Yue Ye had been sent back to the Lower Realms at a young age and Jun Wu Xie made her her disciple as she had shown great talent in healing poisons. However, although she was her disciple, Jun Wu Xie did not pay much attention to her and sent her to live with the Jun family to be taken care of.

  Over time, Yue Ye had blossomed into a beautiful, young lady.

  Because she was raised in the Jun household, Yue Ye was familiar with the people in the Ruilin Army in which there were many famous doctors besides Bai Xu, Mu Chen and Bai Yun. On account of her knowledge of medicine and blessings bestowed by Jun Wu Xie, she was counted amongst them.

  When she was still young, most of the soldiers in the Ruilin Army took care of her as a little sister.

  Her good character, in addition to her pretty face, made her the subject of attention and admiration from many soldiers.

  “What about Yue Ye?” Jun Wu Xie asked Han Zi Fei, not understanding her meaning.

  “She isn’t a child anymore and previously, her grandfather had asked me to find her a suitable man. As her master, shouldn’t you put some effort into that as well?” Han Zi Fei chuckled.

  “Mother can do as she pleases, I’m not an expert in this area.” Jun Wu Xie sounded a little impatient.

  “Yes, Dumb Qiao and the rest are good candidates. Although they are a little older, it matters little since they are Gods and do not age. Why don’t you……” Han Zi Fei suggested.

  But that made Jun Wu Xie not know whether to laugh or cry.

  The few of them seemed even stranger than her own uncle.

  Ever since Fei Yan had his appearance and eyesight restored after becoming a God, he only had eyes for Rong Ruo, who had also become a God.

  And Qiao Chu and Hua Yao kept coming and going, not interacting with women.

  Only Fan Zhuo seemed relatively normal but whenever he returned to the Lower Three Realms, he was holed up in the Feng Hua School to meet up with Fan Jin and the two brothers would talk for hours on end, there was no room for Jun Wu Xie to intervene.

  Upon thinking about it, Jun Wu Xie could not think of any suitable candidates for Yue Ye.

  Ye Mei and the rest had nary a romantic bone in their body and just kept doing their jobs of standing guard ever since they entered paradise.

  After thinking for a long time, Jun Wu Xie suddenly thought of someone.

  “Dumb Qiao and the rest may not be suitable, but Nangong Lie might be.”


  “No!” the previously quiet Jun Qing suddenly made his voice heard.

  “.……”


  The hall fell silent and everyone in it turned to look at Jun Qing.

  “Why not? We all know Nangong Lie and he is a good man, which is such a rarity in the Three Realms.” The more Han Zi Fei said, the more she felt Nangong Lie was suitable, seemingly not noticing that Jun Qing’s expression was turning sour.

  He looked impatiently at his sister-in-law and stood up suddenly, saying, ” I’m going out for a walk.”


  After finishing, he left without waiting for anyone to respond.

  Jun Wu Xie was confused, “What’s wrong with uncle?”


  Han Zi Fei suddenly laughed and had a mischievous glint in her eye, “What else could it be? The girl he raised has suddenly become a woman and about to be married off, your uncle……couldn’t take it.”


  Nobody knew exactly how stubborn Jun Qing was.

  That night, neither he nor Yue Ye returned home to the Jun residence.

  But Yan Bu Gui, who had already reunited with Su Ya, had seen Jun Qing call Yue Ye out at night to go to the lake for a chat.

  After that incident……

  Jun Xian never urged Jun Qing to get married again and the Jun household started preparations for a big wedding celebration.

  Jun Wu Xie was melancholic, wondering if she would have to change how she addressed her disciple in the future……

  On the day of the wedding, Jun Qing successfully brought Yue Ye away. As broken-hearted as the members of the Ruilin Army were, none dared to challenge him as they feared for their lives.

  Qiao Chu and the rest were greeted by a sea of red decorations as they arrived to celebrate the festivities and each watched as the groom, Jun Qing, got redder and redder as he continued drinking wine.

  “Looks like Little Uncle might not be able to perform in the bedroom tonight.” Qiao Chu said with a laugh. To the side, although the members of the Ruilin Army had no courage to challenge him, they did not hold back when it came to insulting him.

  Jun Qing would have already been lying drunk on the floor if not for his high alcohol tolerance.

  And this was not even counting the alcohol that Long Qi had drunk on his behalf.

  “That’s where you’re wrong, even if he’s lying flat on the floor, he still must do it.” Fei Yan laughed. His appearance had fully recovered but his character remained unchanged.

  “I can’t believe he’s so drunk this early. If this continues, Long Qi will have to carry him back.” Qiao Chu thought out loud.

  Fei Yan gently swirled the glass in his hand, “Have you forgotten who is Yue Ye’s teacher? She will surely have something simple like a sobering medicine on hand.”


  “.……” Qiao Chu remained silent, pretending he never said anything at all.

  “Mother……hug……” Jun Mo Ye had just returned to the banquet hall after being in the bridal chamber looking at Yue Ye and immediately asked her mother for a hug when she saw her.

  Jun Wu Xie laughed and picked her daughter up and put her on her lap. Jun Wu Yao, sitting to her side, smiled and placed some delicious food on the plate for his wife and daughter to eat.

  The family of three looked the picture of harmonious contentment at the table.

  Fei Yan could not help but smile at the scene. After drinking a few more, his eyes started to wander towards Rong Ruo, who was sitting next to him.

  Rong Ruo’s soul was extracted out of the puppet by Jun Wu Xie and put into a new body. Rong Ruo had requested to be put into a male body and while there was little change to his facial appearance, the broad shoulders and chest gave no hint of femininity whatsoever. He had become a dashing young man.

  Rong Ruo was kind by nature and when the women at the wedding celebration saw his gentle smile, they could not help but swoon. However, the attention Rong Ruo was receiving made Fei Yan feel suffocated.

  He wished he could stuff Rong Ruo into his pocket, away from the lecherous eyes of those women.

  Jun Qing was stumbling over himself and had to be helped to his room by Long Qi who was almost as drunk as him. The men from the Ruilin Army, while sore that the flower in their midst had been taken away, acknowledged that it was by a man they ultimately admired and stopped making a fuss.

  The banquet was nearing its end, and the crowd started to disperse.

  As a member of the Jun household, Jun Wu Xie sent off the guests with Jun Gu and the rest of the family.

  A figure walked hesitantly towards the main door of the Jun residence.

  “May I have a few words with you?” Qu Ling Yue said to Jun Wu Xie, who despite becoming a mother and showing some weariness from the years that have passed, she still looked as radiant as she did in her past.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded her head, passed her tired child to Jun Wu Yao and walked together with Qu Ling Yue to the backyard.

  Lei Chen, who had arrived at the banquet with Qu Ling Yue, did not follow them. But as she stood at the doorway watching them walk away, his heart was overcome with bitterness.

  Jun Wu Xie and Qu Ling Yue strolled in the garden under the moonlight and the flowers, seemingly aware of her godly presence, seemed to bloom even brighter.

  The red silk was hung high and as people were leaving, the Jun family’s joy was obvious but their joy was not shared by everyone present.

  Qu Ling Yue and Jun Wu Xie both said nothing as they walked through the garden and sat down. Both beauties had completely opposite demeanors.

  Qu Ling Yue had long cast away the image of a young, naive woman after going through her numerous trials and tribulations and no full blooded man would dare to underestimate her.

  She was a steel blooded queen, and was no longer the Qu Ling Yue of old, a spoiled girl from a big city.

  It was only at this moment, as she was seated next to Jun Wu Xie, that a smile could be seen on her face. Their long shadows, cast by the moonlight, made them seem worlds apart despite the fact that they were so close to each other.

  “I grew up in the Thousand Beasts City. Although my mother died young, my father loved me greatly and never let me suffer any hardship. I believed the world was good and the occasional flash of evil I saw had nothing to do with me. My father used to say that when I got older, I should find a man that truly loves me and is devoted to my happiness and that it didn’t matter whether he was rich or talented.” Qu Ling Yue said with a laugh, her shadow moving in unison with her.

  “I never thought I would experience what I did, even know it still feels like a nightmare, like it wasn’t real. But I can’t deny that it did happen although now I can’t remember everything that happened, maybe it’s my subconscious trying to forget it.

  Qu Ling Yue’s voice cracked. She turned to look at Jun Wu Xie who was looking at her calmly and silently but could feel an unmistakable gentleness in the look.

  The gentleness……

  Made her feel like crying.

  “Wu Xie.” Qu Ling Yue said softly.

  “Yes?”


  “Can……I give you a hug?” Qu Ling Yue’s voice was barely audible and trembling ever so slightly.

  Jun Wu Xie was stunned momentarily and as she looked at Qu Ling Yue’s eyes being welled up with tears, she felt like she was looking at her naive and innocent eyes from the past.

  Jun Wu Xie stood up, extended her arms and wrapped them around Qu Ling Yue, all without saying a word.

  This was the first time she had embraced the woman who was once known as her wife.

  Jun Wu Xie realised that she had not changed at all, her petite frame felt so weak in her arms.

  Under the mask of strength and decisiveness was still a scared little girl.

  The difference was……

  The little girl had her own beliefs and it was those beliefs that made her grow strong.

  Qu Ling Yue closed her eyes and enjoyed the warmth of Jun Wu Xie’s embrace, longing for it to last knowing that it could never belong to her.

  “Wu Xie, thank you.”


  The soft thank you came straight from her heart.

  “I don’t regret falling in love with you, you were better than anybody else.”


  The many years of repressed love burst forth at that moment and tears started steaming down her face.

  Jun Wu Xie just held her silently, she knew what was in her heart but could not reciprocate.

  She had said in the past that she could be Qu Ling Yue’s greatest protector and support but she could not give her what she wanted the most.

  Under the moonlight, it was silent.

  Lei Chen stood in the corner of the garden, confused by what he was witnessing, not knowing what emotions he was feeling at that time.

  After a moment of silence, Qu Ling Yue pushed away from Jun Wu Xie, stood up and wiped away her tears. Even though her eyes were still filled with tears, she was smiling radiantly.

  “I’m about to start a new life and will not be bogged down by the past. I have repaid your kindness to me and protected what you asked me to protect. We are even.” Qu Ling Yue said with a smile, which would have been convincing were it not for the tremble in her voice.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded her head slightly. She felt guilty towards Qu Ling Yue and would never be stingy with what she asked for.

  No matter what direction Qu Ling Yue chose to take in the future, she would support her silently.

  Qu Ling Yue’s smile turned even brighter and she took a step forward and planted a light kiss on Jun Wu Xie’s cheek.

  So light……

  That it felt like a gentle breeze kissing her.

  “Really even.” Qu Ling Yue stared at Jun Wu Xie.

  Without waiting for an answer, Qu Ling Yue turned around and started to walk away.

  Jun Wu Xie was feeling confused but could not do anything.

  When she reached the entrance of the garden, Qu Ling Yue saw the man who had been waiting for her.

  Lei Chen was surprised and felt embarrassed at being caught.

  “I……I was just passing by……”


  “Lei Chen.” Qu Ling Yue said suddenly.

  “Yes?”


  “Do you mind?” Qu Ling Yue said to him.

  “Mind what?” Lei Chen did not know what she was talking about.

  “My past, all the things I’ve done before.” Qu Ling Yue replied.

  Lei Chen shook his head without hesitation, “You’re better than anyone, I’ve always seen that. All these years, you……”


  Before he could finish, Qu Ling Yue put her finger on his lips to shush him.

  “Do you dare to marry me?”


  Lei Chen’s eyes grew large in disbelief and he removed her hand from his lips, grasping it tightly and exclaimed in delight, “Marrying you would be the greatest joy in my life!”


  The night was silent.

  After Qu Ling Yue left, Jun Wu Xie sat in the courtyard for a long time, until Jun Wu Yao walked to her under the moonlight and sat down beside her.

  “What are you thinking about?” Jun Wu Yao looked at Jun Wu Xie, and the love in his eyes was apparent.

  Jun Wu Xie shook her head.

  “Nothing much, just that time has passed by so quickly and so many people and things have changed.”


  “Changed for the better or worse?” Jun Wu Yao inquired with a smile.

  Jun Wu Xie sighed, “Do you think Xiao Zhuo has really let it go?”


  Jun Wu Xie did not know how to react.

  At the time when the God of Destruction was vanquished, there was a being that was not destroyed with him, it was Gu Ying. Gu Ying was a soul that had been released by the God of Destruction but somehow managed to gain a mind of its own.

  After the God of Destruction died, Gu Ying’s soul was truly liberated, no longer subject to any restraint. When the God of Destruction died, Gu Ying did not leave, but appeared in front of Jun Wu Xie, as if he was waiting for something.

  At the time Fan Zhuo was conscious but let Gu Ying go in the end……

  Among them, only Fan Zhuo and Gu Ying had bad blood between them but Fan Zhuo decided to let him go.

  Gu Ying’s soul was finally taken away by Gu Xin Yan but nobody knew where he was taken to.

  “It was his own decision so I believe he would be at peace with it.” Jun Wu Yao replied.

  In that game of chess, everyone was just a pawn in the God of Destruction’s game.

  Jun Wu Xie sighed softly, “What about Little Mo Ye?”


  “She’s asleep, Hua Yao is carrying her and I came to see you.” Jun Wu Yao replied.

  Jun Wu Xue smiled and held his hand as she stood up.

  Just as she was about to leave the courtyard, a holy light appeared suddenly and shone on an empty space in the yard!

  The holy light was dazzlingly bright, making it impossible for anyone looking at it to open their eyes.

  The sacred and pure light rooted Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao to the ground.

  A petite figure emerged from the light.

  “Hmm? What place is this? Did the main God trick me again?” A suspicious voice pierced the silence in the courtyard.

  When Jun Wu Xie heard that voice, it was like she had been struck by lightning and froze to the spot!!

  The figure casted its eyes over the courtyard and when it saw Jun Wu Xie, it suddenly burst out into a bright and radiant smile!

  “Wu Xie!” A beautiful voice rang out from the person’s mouth. She was a beautiful and captivating young woman with not a single flaw on her face and radiated a strong energy.

  Her warm beauty stood in contrast with Jun Wu Xie’s cool beauty but both were equally beautiful.

  “Little Wu Xie! I’ve finally found you, I’ve missed you so much!” the beautiful woman rushed towards the rooted Jun Wu Xie with her arms outstretched.

  But Jun Wu Xie suddenly regained her senses and raised her hand to strike the onrushing girl in her face!

  The girl was stunned and looked at Jun Wu Xie. In her eyes there was no anger, just a sense of sadness and grievances.

  The entire courtyard was eerily quiet and the figure that emerged from the light had been frightened into silence.

  They stared at the Little Devil King who had been hit by a beautiful girl!

  What surprised them even more was the lack of retaliation.

  “Little Wu Xie, that’s certainly a special way to greet someone……” Shen Yan Xiao rubbed the sore area on his face. What had happened to LIttle Wu Xie to turn her so violent?

  Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath, strode forward and stared at the hateful woman in front of her with hatred in her eyes, “Greet you? Why should I have to be polite to such an arrogant and stupid woman like you?!”


  “.……” Shen Yan Xiao was stunned, as the Main God for many years, she had become accustomed to people hanging on her every word but when faced with Jun Wu Xie’s intense stare, she could only stand silently as she let her vent.

  “You’re very capable aren’t you? You’re very powerful when standing in front of me? How did I not know that you’re capable of such dedication? I don’t care for your protection!” Jun Wu Xie didn’t hold back as she continued staring at the woman who died for her.

  She never felt any care or concern in her previous life and the only person who treated her well or could make any inroads into her heart was the hateful woman standing in front of her.

  But……

  It was this woman who used her own life to protect her during a time of great danger.

  But that scene became a nightmare for Jun Wu Xie that she has not been able to forget!

  She would never be able to erase the memory of seeing her fall in front of her.

  That was in a previous life where all the warmth she ever knew was wiped out in front of her very eyes……

  How she wished that the one who died was her instead!

  “Damn you! Damn you! Who said you could save me?!” Jun Wu Xie howled, the repressed anger of two lifetimes boiling to the surface.

  As Shen Yan Xiao stood there bearing the brunt of Jun Wu Xie’s anger, any grievances she had disappeared and she smiled a little as Jun Wu Xie continued. She then extended her arms to give Jun Wu Xie a hug.

  “Alright, I admit my mistake, don’t be angry anymore. You saved me so many times, but I’m not allowed to return the favour even once?” Shen Yan Xiao said gently but with a bittersweet tone in her voice.

  It was good that they didn’t forget each other.

  “I don’t appreciate it.” Jun Wu Xie retorted.

  Shen Yan Xiao chuckled slightly.

  Little Wu Xie had never changed, she was incredibly soft hearted but her pride always made her keep an icy cool demeanor and an even sharper mouth.

  Jun Wu Xie gradually calmed down after her initial burst of anger. The holy light had attracted the attention of quite a few people and made Qiao Chu and the others who were resting in the house go out to take a look.

  They arrived in the courtyard to see Jun Wu Xie locked in an embrace with a beautiful woman they had never seen before and standing behind the woman were several tall figures.

  “Brother Wu Yao……this is……” Qiao Chu inquired hesitantly.

  Jun Wu Yao just shook his head.

  “My apologies, I am Little Wu Xie’s friend from long ago and I came to see how she is doing.” Shen Yan Xiao said cheerfully and looked up to greet Jun Wu Xie’s family and friends. But the first person she cast her eyes on blew her away!

  “Satan!!!”


  Shen Yan Xiao stared at the man behind Jun Wu Xie in disbelief, after all those years, those unmistakable purple eyes still haunted her like a nightmare!

  Satan!

  The Devil King who almost destroyed the world!

  What was he doing there?

  Instinctively, Shen Yan Xiao shielded Jun Wu Xie behind her own body and shouted to the crowd.

  “Help me protect Little Wu Xie!”


  The man she was referring to was tall and handsome. His eyes exuded a coldness that only seemed to dissipate when he looked at her.

  Di Xiu looked helplessly at the young girl who was pushed in front of him as well as his own feisty wife and suddenly had a headache.

  “Satan, you haven’t been destroyed!” Shen Yan Xiao narrowed her eyes as she prepared to use all her power in battle.

  Jun Wu Yao looked on in surprise at the woman who was being so hostile towards him, he felt like he had seen her and the people behind her in a dream once.

  In that dream, it was this group of people that destroyed him.

  However……

  “I think you’ve got the wrong person.” Jun Wu Yao said with a laugh, the situation at hand was quite interesting.

  “I wouldn’t be mistaken even if you were reduced to ashes!” Shen Yan Xiao retorted.

  “Oh? Then maybe you should ask Little Xie who I am.” Jun Wu Yao said. If he did not know what Shen Yan Xiao meant to Jun Wu Xie or that she had once sacrificed her life to save her, he might not have had the patience to say all that to her.

  Shen Yan Xiao narrowed her eyes once again and turned towards Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu XIe had a complicated expression on her face.

  “Little Wu Xie, this is a bad guy and you should keep your distance from him.” Shen Yan Xiao said with great concern.

  Jun Wu Xie’s expression grew even more complicated.

  “But don’t worry, I won’t let him harm even a hair on your head.” Shen Yan Xiao continued sincerely.

  “.……” Jun Wu Xie’s brows were almost knotted.

  Just as Shen Yan Xiao was preparing to find out from Jun Wu Xie what Satan was doing there and if he had caused any trouble, a soft and gentle voice suddenly rang out.

  “Mother……” Jun Mo Ye, who had been sleeping, was awakened by the commotion and wandered into the courtyard and saw her mother.

  “Mo……mother?” Shen Yan Xiao looked at the cute child then back at Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie nodded her head.

  Shen Yan Xiao was speechless.

  It was incomprehensible for her to think of Jun Wu Xie as a mother.

  “Mother……hug……” Little Mo Ye paid no attention to the stranger in the courtyard and sleepily whined to her mother to pick her up.

  Jun Wu Xie laughed and shook her head at her daughter.

  Little Mo Ye was aggrieved at being refused by her mother and started bawling. As she looked around, she saw Jun Wu Yao and said pitifully, “Father……hug……”


  “.……” When Shen Yan Xiao heard the word “Father”, it was like she was struck by lightning and was rooted to the spot!

  Father……father……father……

  Those two words nauseated Shen Yan Xiao. As she looked at Jun Mo Ye’s exquisite face, she saw shades of both Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao.

  Shen Yan Xiao clutched her chest and had trouble breathing. She pointed at Jun Wu Yao, turned back to face Jun Wu Xie and said, “Little Wu Xie……you couldn’t have……”


  Jun Wu Xie nodded silently, feeling some pity for her overwhelmed sister.

  Shen Yan Xiao staggered back in shock and fell into a deep silence.

  Di Xiu, standing behind her, was surprised as well but had a much calmer reaction than Shen Yan Xiao. He looked up at the enemy who had fought against him for many years and could not see any more evil in that pair of violet eyes. All he could see were loving eyes looking at Jun Wu Xie as if she was the only person in the world.

  Di Xiu knew that that look meant.

  “It can’t be!” Shen Yan Xiao grabbed Jun Wu Xie by the shoulders and said, “Little Wu Xie, do you know who he is? He’s an evil man who almost destroyed a whole world!”


  Jun Wu Xie laughed bitterly as she looked at her good friend and helplessly looked towards the so-called evil man.

  Jun Wu Yao raised both his hands to protest his innocence to his wife.

  “Xiao Xiao……” Jun Wu Xie tried to speak.

  However……

  “He must have tricked you!” Shen Yan Xiao asserted.

  “.……” Jun Wu Xie was at a loss for words and could only look at Jun Wu Yao with an expression that only both of them knew.

  Jun Wu Yao’s head was beginning to hurt. His wife’s expression meant that he should be cleaning up his own mess but he felt so maligned as the deeds from his previous life had nothing to do with him, even though Shen Yan Xiao disagreed.

  “What’s going on?” The confused look on Qiao Chen’s face said it all, in addition to the chaotic scene in front of him, these strangers also had mystical golden glows.

  Hua Yao and the others were just as confused.

  Jun Mo Ye went over to Jun Wu Yao’s leg, pulled on his trouser leg and said, “Father, hug.”


  Jun Wu Yao bent down and picked his daughter up, all the while being watched by Shen Yan Xiao’s wary eyes.

  Despite her young age, Little Mo Ye could tell that the beautiful lady in front of her did not seem to like her father and furthermore, by standing in front of her mother, prevented her from getting a hug from her.

  The aggrieved Little Mo Ye pointed a stubby little finger at the strange lady and said, “Naughty!”


  “.……” Shen Yan Xiao was frozen to the spot.

  Although she did not like Satan, she had great affection for Jun Wu Xie and consequently, her offspring. But to be despised by her after only one meeting was a great setback for her!

  Her whole being just wilted.

  “You’re not allowed to call my mother bad!” Suddenly, a green glow and a handsome boy appeared in front of Shen Yan Xiao, staring at Jun Mo Ye who was in her father’s arms.

  The young boy looked to be about right or nine and was very handsome, with Shen Yan Xiao’s eyebrows. Despite his young age, he had an impressive aura about him.

  Little Mo Ye had been the apple of everyone’s eye since she was born and had never been scolded in such a way before. When faced with the fierce look of the older boy in front of her, she suddenly burst out crying.

  “Boo hoo hoo……”


  Her crying removed all the awkwardness in the yard but replaced it with panic as nobody knew what to do.

  When Shen Yan Xiao saw the little girl who looked like Jun Wu Xie bawling, her heart went soft and turning to her own son, she suddenly slapped him across the face saying, “Who said you could be fierce to her?!”


  The boy, after receiving the slap, looked at his mother in puzzlement, feeling quite wronged.

  “Boo hoo hoo……I want my mother……boo hoo hoo……he was fierce to me……” Little Mo Ye was quite a pitiful sight, crying in her father’s arms.

  At this moment, Shen Yan Xiao couldn’t take it any longer and urged Jun Wu Xie to comfort her child.

  Jun Wu Xie picked up the red eyed child while wryly smiling and Little Mo Ye started to cry even more.

  As Jun Wu Yao comforted his daughter from the side, the image of the happy family of three made Shen Yan Xiao feel a bit depressed.

  “Alright, Satan is no longer who he used to be and I’m sure you don’t want that child to continue crying.” Di Xiu looked at Jun Wu Xie and smiled.

  Shen Yan Xiao’s eyebrows were twisted into a knot.

  “What about the things in the past? This guy has been a thorn in your side for many years.”


  Di Xiu shook his head, “Would I have met you if not for him?”


  Shen Yan Xiao’s face turned red.

  One one side Shen Yan Xiao and Di Xiu were going back and forth and on the other, Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao were trying to comfort their daughter.

  The boy who caused it all did not know what was happening.

  Things seemed completely different from what he had imagined.

  “Why are you still standing there? Quickly go and apologise to her!” Shen Yan Xiao glared at her son.

  The boy resigned himself to his fate and went up to Jun Mo Ye saying, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to be fierce to you, I just didn’t want you to say my mother is bad. Stop crying ok?”


  Little Mo Ye looked at the older boy and wiped away a tear, asking, “Will you be fierce to me again in the future?”


  The boy immediately shook his head.

  Xiao Moye looked at her father and mother, and after getting some encouragement from them, slowly came down from Jun Wu Xie’s embrace and walked to the young boy, saying, “Then I can forgive you, but you have to tell me your name so that if you are fierce to me again in the future, I will carve your name on the back of a little turtle and let everyone laugh at you.”


  The threat was spoken in all seriousness but instead made all the adults in the audience laugh.

  The boy however, took it seriously and said, “I am Di Jing and I mean what I say.”


  “Di Jing?” Xiao Mo Ye was confused.

  Di Jing stepped forward, took Xiao Mo Ye’s small hand in his and wrote his name on her palm.

  “It’s these two words, you must remember them.”


  The two children shook hands and made peace and with that, all was well. Despite her misgivings, Shen Yan Xiao had little choice to accept the situation when she saw the deep love between Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao. However she still gave him a stern warning that if he were to ever mistreat Jun Wu Xie, she would challenge him to a fight to the death.

  Jun Wu Yao could only nod in agreement.

  With the atmosphere eased, Jun Wu Xie and Shen Yan Xiao introduced everybody to each other. When meeting each other, everyone had a feeling that they should have met sooner.

  Everybody was in a good mood.

  The newly acquainted Jun Mo Ye and Di Jing were off having their own fun.

  The still red eyed Jun Mo Ye had all but forgotten the unpleasantness of earlier. She’d always been surrounded by adults and never had a playmate close to her age before and so she was naturally happy to play with him.

  In the Jun household, Little Mo Ye was like the small master, pulling Di Jing everywhere to show him things and out of guilt of his treatment earlier, he just went along with what she wanted to do.

  “This is Lord Meh Meh, so soft.” When Little Mo Ye found Lord Meh Meh who was hiding in the corner of the courtyard, her little eyes sparkled and she reached out her hands.

  Lord Meh Meh, when seeing Little Mo Ye coming after it, immediately started to run away, together with Blood Sacrificial Rabbit.

  “Hey don’t run! This is Brother Jing, he won’t hurt you!” Little Mo Ye cried out anxiously as the two creatures ran away.

  Di Jing just kept quiet.

  He did not think the two creatures were running away from him.

  Little Mo Ye continued to give chase and would have fallen over if Di Jing hadn’t held her upright.

  Zhu Que, who had been quietly observing the child she had brought up, finally understood. She wiped away a warm tear and threw the food she had been holding onto the floor.

  “Isn’t that good? Now you don’t have to pick up after her all day.” Tao Tie happily stuffed a peach into her mouth.

  Zhu Que sighed softly and realised that actually being a babysitter was not bad too.

  At least……

  It was better than the treatment of those two.

  The Jun family had just finished their wedding banquet but with the unexpected arrival of these new guests, they closed the main doors to have another one. Qiao Chu and the rest who had not left, also stayed for another party.

  “I say to you my brother, I think we will get along, what’s your name?” A slightly drunk Qiao Chu said to a handsome man after a few drinks.

  “Ah, my name is Tang Na Zhi. Let’s have a few more drinks!” The man replied as they continued drinking and put their arms on each other’s shoulders.

  Li Xiao Wei looked on at her drunk brother and shook her head helplessly. She looked up and saw Hua Yao who had a similar look of resignation on her face.

  They were all useless guys!

  A song here and a glass there and it was late into the night before anyone knew it and everyone present had become one large boisterous group.

  Jun Wu Xie and Shen Yan Xiao had not seen each other for ages and had much to catch up on.

  Di Xie and Jun Wu Yao sat next to their respective wives, their feud now a thing of the past as they now only cared about the women next to them.

  The so-called hatred had been resolved.

  Fan Zhuo smiled and surveyed the happy scene in front of him and gradually came to rest his gaze on the handsome, smiling man seated opposite him. He was a man of few words and when the drunk Tang Na Zhi said something to him, he felt his hair stand on end.

  If he remembered correctly, the man’s name was Qi Xia.

  Fan Zhuo was curious about this man and observed him closely. After a while, he noticed that despite his outwardly casual demeanour, he carried an unmistakable air of sadness with him.

  Qi Xia, who was in the middle of taking a drink, felt someone looking at him and raised his head to look Fan Zhuo in the eye.

  The two intelligent men said nothing to each other. Qi Xia raised his glass and they made a silent toast to each other.

  Fan Zhuo could not help but sigh after drinking the wine.

  The moonlight was bright and the smell of wine filled the air.

  The two tired children were carried back to the hall by Zhu Que and Tao Tie and their respective mothers took them over. Upon seeing the two sleeping children, Shen Yan Xiao flashed a mischievous smile and looked over at Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie knew exactly what that look meant.

  “Little Wu Xie, look……your LIttle Mo Ye is so well behaved and my son isn’t ugly. They may have gotten off on the wrong foot but they seem to be getting along fine now. Why don’t we……”


  Shen Yan Xiao fluttered her eyelids at Jun Wu Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie was helpless when it came to her friend’s way of thinking, but……

  Regarding this proposal, she not only did not mind, she happily supported it.

  “It’s all well and good but we live in different worlds. It’s easy to say when we are together but when the time comes for one of us to have to be separated from our child, there will be some difficulty.” Jun Wu Xie sighed lightly.

  Shen Yan Xiao allayed her friend’s worry, “It’s a small matter, we’ve been fooled by the main god long enough and he should be grateful that we don’t take our revenge on him. Getting him to solve this issue won’t be a problem.”


  Although Shen Yan Xiao was reluctant to bring him up, she had to admit that he was at a higher level than her or Jun Wu Xie.

  “If that is possible, then I don’t see any issue.” Jun Wu Xie nodded.

  The two children did not know that their futures had already been decided by their mothers while they were sleeping.

  And that shared future will be another story.

  For now, they were still children and they had a very long road ahead of them.
