The battle on the ground was a foregone conclusion, the huge beasts had become the object of the beating.
As one beast after another fell, it proclaimed Fengxi Sect's victory.
Then, one huge and mighty weapon after another raised their hideous heads.
In the air, the people of the Alliance looked and panicked immediately.
Already at a disadvantage, being ambushed again meant certain death.
Just then, Ye Xuan, this trouble maker, appeared. Although his dantian was damaged and he was gravely injured, it did not prevent him from slaughtering Fengxi Sect's lowly disciples.
Although Fengxi Sect's disciples suffered heavy losses, they were not afraid and continued to rush towards Ye Xuan.
Tang Xiaoyu was now furious, her sword beating back several people as she rushed towards Ye Xuan.
"Ye Xuan, I want you dead."
Ye Xuan still overestimated those Sect Leaders' bottom line. After being driven back, they did not give chase but went after the mid-level combatants instead.
It was a wise move, but also a fatal mistake.
In a flash, Tang Xiaoyu was in front of Ye Xuan, her two swords cutting off his arms, then breaking his legs.
At his peak, Ye Xuan could have fought Tang Xiaoyu for a while, but now, not only did Tang Xiaoyu grasp his weakness, he was also gravely wounded. How could he possibly resist?
Grabbing Ye Xuan's hair, she lifted him up, "You want to die so badly, I'll grant you your wish."
"Bang, bang, bang..." With punch after punch to Ye Xuan's dantian, she beat him until he was crippled.
Casually throwing him away, "Remember to keep breathing, I still want to torture him well."
"Yes, Sect Leader."
A group of vicious disciples walked towards Ye Xuan, wanting to make him suffer a fate worse than death.
In a flash, Tang Xiaoyu was behind a Sect Leader, her sword piercing his heart. Then a kick to his dantian.
Doing the same, she killed four Sect Leaders in a row. By now, surrounding and killing Tang Xiaoyu was no longer feasible.
They had made a fatal mistake from the start, and now it was too late for regrets.
The battle was decisively over, the Alliance's men had begun retreating.
Tang Xiaoyu's heart tightened, a bad premonition welling up.
"Don't pursue them, retreat at once."
Zhang Huizhu asked in puzzlement, "Why give up such a good opportunity?"
Liu Xuning also said, "That's right! We only need to kill them and Zhongzhou will be ours."
Tang Xiaoyu anxiously yelled, "Can't you hear me, I said retreat!"
The two women didn't dare ask more when they saw Tang Xiaoyu angry, and hurriedly organized the retreat.
As Fengxi Sect's disciples boarded the spirit vessels one after another, Tang Xiaoyu sent a voice transmission to Liu Xuning and Zhang Huizhu, "Take them to Dongzhou, remember to bring Liu YuXin and the others and the seized resources too."
"Xiaoyu, what are you going to do?"
Tang Xiaoyu gazed into the distance, resolutely saying, "Buy time for you."
"The faster you run, the safer I'll be."
"Tell XiaoXue not to look for me, I'll find her."
The two knew Tang Xiaoyu's temperament, he didn't like hemming and hawing, "We'll wait for you, you must come back alive."
"Alright."
As one spirit vessel after another took to the skies, soon disappearing over the horizon, Tang Xiaoyu looked at the corpses of Fengxi Sect disciples on the ground.
"You were all my pride, but died without a place to rest, this is my responsibility."
Then, Tang Xiaoyu struck out with his palm, everything within a hundred miles was turned to ashes.
"Walk slowly, your Sect Leader will come find you soon."
As time slowly passed, Tang Xiaoyu just quietly watched the distance.
"Here yet?"
On the horizon, those who had retreated were coming back, along with countless spirit vessels.
As the enemy approached, Tang Xiaoyu chose to take the initiative to attack.
The spirit vessels showed no intention of stopping, while those who had retreated charged at Tang Xiaoyu.
A tiger, no matter how fierce, can't withstand a pack of wolves. Soon, Tang Xiaoyu's body was covered in wounds.
Tang Xiaoyu, already hard-pressed, also encountered a sneak attack from Lin Qingying. The outcome was predictable.
Feeling someone attack from behind, Tang Xiaoyu immediately turned around, but it was too late.
Lin Qingying's sword pierced through Tang Xiaoyu's chest. Tang Xiaoyu grabbed her shoulder, smiling bitterly,
"Didn't expect this outcome, dying by your hand is not unjust."
"Puff~"
The sound of a sword piercing flesh rang out, blood slowly flowing from the corner of Lin Qingying's mouth.
"I hoped so much you would forever be that Third Sister, not the Lin Qingying you are now."
Lin Qingying smiled, "From now on I'll be Third Sister again, no longer Lin Qingying."
"Good."
The Zhongzhou Holy Master on the spirit vessel suddenly yelled loudly, "Hurry and stop him!"
Because Tang Xiaoyu was different from them, his self-detonation was hard to detect. By the time they noticed, it was too late.
Hearing the Holy Master's shout, the other Sect Leaders also reacted, but it was too late.
They could hardly understand the thinking of someone like Tang Xiaoyu. Self-detonation meant complete annihilation, total disappearance from this world.
Yet Tang Xiaoyu could continue vigilantly guarding against the enemy's crazed actions, because he understood very well that when one goes mad, they can commit any madness.
This was the difference in ideas, leading to different results.
In his final moments, Tang Xiaoyu gently held Lin Qingying, "Third Sister, marry me okay?"
Lin Qingying also embraced Tang Xiaoyu, "Okay."
The sun at this moment lost its color, the white clouds disappearing without a trace.
The piercing light, the earth-shattering explosion, even tens of thousands of miles away, Zhang Huizhu and the others could feel it.
Liu Xuning immediately collapsed to the ground, "Xiaoyu, didn't you say you would come find us? Why were you so foolish?"
Tang Xiaoyan cried her heart out, "Big brother, how will I explain this to XiaoXue! What can I say when I get back?!"
Although also grieved, Zhang Huizhu knew what had to be done now.
"Now is not the time for grief. Our mission now is to return to Dongzhou, then regroup our forces and avenge Xiaoyu."
Tang Xiaoyan wiped her tears, "You're right, big brother hates us being like this now. We must hurry back to Dongzhou."
Liu Xuning stood up, "Li Zijie."
"Here."
"You take some people first and go bring the rest of Fengxi Sect, transport them to Dongzhou. We'll take the resources and rendezvous with you."
"Yes."
Tang Xiaoyu's sacrifice was worth it. It took the combined might of the four States' Holy Masters and Sect Leaders to avoid total defeat, but the losses were still enormous.
"What now?"
The Zhongzhou Holy Master sighed, "For now, treat the wounded. When everyone has calmed down, we'll join with Zhongzhou's demonic cultivators and fight to the death."
"There's nothing else we can do now." Another Holy Master said.
Standing on Dongzhou's land, Liu YuXin held Li Zijie's arm and asked, "Have we been completely defeated?"
Li Zijie shook his head, "We were victorious, this is just a temporary retreat."
Liu YuXin was much relieved, "What about the Sect Leader and the others?"
Li Zijie didn't know how to tell her, only evasively saying, "The main force is behind us, they'll be here soon."
When they learned these were Fengxi Sect disciples, the people standing guard here immediately spread the news back to the sacred grounds, and also notified the one in charge here to prepare to receive them.
As time passed, Liu YuXin grew increasingly anxious.
As more and more Fengxi Sect disciples were transported over, Liu YuXin felt much less worried.
More and more people were transported over. When Liu Xuning and the others appeared, no more people came over.
Liu YuXin grabbed Liu Xuning's arm and asked, "Master, where is the Sect Leader?"
Liu Xuning did not answer, "Let's go to Dongzhou's sacred grounds first, we'll talk more there!"

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.

At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
