As I turned to walk back, the entire Chinese Allied Forces suddenly bowed in salute.

They didn't say anything, but all Chinese people knew what they were worshipping.

This bow was a tribute to Qiongqi's final act of righteousness. Had he not sacrificed himself for justice, it's hard to say how many would have survived.

The Evil Eye Tyrant's final attack is a calculated move, forcing you to fight him head-on. The massive energy clash between the two sides will surely destroy this area.

Everyone will be swept up in the spatial turbulence, and who survives will be entirely up to fate.

Therefore, everyone owed Qiongqi a favor, and the Dongyi people also knew this, which is why they immediately attacked, creating a fait accompli that prevented anyone from intervening.

Because of Qiongqi's previous actions, people could not carry out their campaign against the Dongyi people after his death, so they could only perform this ceremony to express their gratitude.

I carried Qiongqi's corpse through the crowd, then suddenly turned back and said to everyone, "I've taken on Qiongqi's grudge. If anyone is dissatisfied and wants revenge, feel free to come find me."

Everyone clicked their tongues in disapproval, especially the people of China, who, although they now saw Qiongqi as only bringing hatred...

However, it should be noted that Zhu Huai and Gu Diao also escaped. They were Qiong Qi's staunch subordinates, having followed him for hundreds of years. They were among the best in the Five Realms.

The Dongyi people stirred upon hearing my words, but ultimately, seeing my men, they dared not say anything.

Although my men aren't in great shape right now, they're not as helpless as Qiongqi. If it really comes down to a fight, I'm confident I can leave none of them alive.

In the end, they could only smile and see me off respectfully. Before I left, I said to the people from the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, "Xiang Wendao, you old bastard, you owe me a life. From now on, you'll work for me and kill people to pay off your debt."

After speaking, they quickly led their men away from the Yellow Springs Slope through the Black Chamber. Hades and Apollo were the last to leave; Hades was in the best condition at the time.

He absorbed the death aura of the Evil Eye Tyrant and Qiongqi, and now the energy around him is frighteningly active, even though he is still only a Grandmaster of the Fourth Realm.

However, he was already on the verge of being promoted at any time, but he was holding back this energy, ready to strike at anyone who wanted to make a move.

Basically, they could take away two fifth-realm experts, which is why the Eastern Barbarians didn't make a move after I finished speaking. They were a three-way alliance.

The three Judah warriors, each with their own agendas, remained silent throughout, consistently following the lead of the Eastern Barbarians.

However, they didn't have any good intentions. They just saw the tense atmosphere and, wanting to avoid offending anyone, simply gave the Dongyi people a show of support, which they considered fulfilling the contract.

But they didn't consider that they were already standing there, yet they were still thinking about not offending either side.

You've already offended both sides. When it's your turn to take sides, you don't speak up. Do you really think the relationship can be the same as before?

But they still thought they had gotten a great deal and were smugly pleased with themselves, until I was out of sight of the others.

When I was surrounded only by my own people, I couldn't hold on any longer. I spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backward uncontrollably.

But the people behind me weren't surprised at all; they calmly came up to help me, and even prepared a stretcher for me.

They actually knew all along that I was at my limit, but they just didn't want to back down in front of the Dongyi people and kept putting up with it.
