Wutong Mountain

Blood stained the mountaintop.

On top of the mountain of corpses,

Seven figures, each with a different expression, stood there...

The prestigious Zhu family of the Dragon Kingdom,

Their entire family was slaughtered in a single day...

As the drop of blood shattered,

The life of the Zhu family patriarch also came to an end.

His skin began to dry and peel at a visible rate.

Gradually turned into dust.

Drifting in the wind

As the fragments drifted away...

What remained in the man's hand

Only one red crystal remained.

The crystal has a strange shape.

It looks like a divine bird taking flight.

The aura emanating from the crystal was exactly the same as that of the phoenix from before.

Its quality is so high,

Even an S-class ferocious beast core might not be as good.

The man looked at the crystal for a moment,

He casually tossed it to Zhu Duanjin, who was standing closest to him.

Zhu Duanjin stared at the crystal, momentarily stunned:

"Brother, you're just giving me the essence of a transcendent law that can slaughter a nation??? You want me to repay you with my body???"

"Stop talking nonsense."

The man interrupted Zhu Duanjin.

"Please pass this on to Ye Ran. Judging from his level of cultivation, he should be able to use it soon."

The man then stood up, waved his hand, and seemed to be preparing to leave.

Zhu Duanjin looked at the crystal in his hand, then at the man's retreating figure.

I couldn't help but speak up:

"You really don't plan to meet one last time before leaving???"

The man paused for a moment after hearing Zhu Duanjin's words.

Then, without turning his head, he said:

"Forget it, it's already bad enough that we dragged him into this."

"Let's talk about it after everything is over."

Seeing that the man was determined to leave, Zhu Duanjin shook his head.

Then, Zhu Duanjin suddenly remembered something and gave a reminder:

"By the way, so you're agreeing to Bai Xu's suggestion?"

Upon hearing this, the man's aura seemed to surge with a momentary ferocity.

His tone was a mix of anger and helplessness.

"We've come this far, what's the point of asking me?"

"Tell Bai Xu that I will have a good talk with him later."

After saying that,

The man's reflection began to ripple like water.

His true form slowly disappeared into the reflection.

Disappeared without a trace...

Watching the man disappear,

Zhu Duanjin curled his lip: "Living with such bitterness and resentment every day, it's truly exhausting..."

Subsequently,

He turned his head.

He walked up to the crowd.

Bai Xu looked at Zhu Duanjin and asked:

"He's gone??"

Zhu Duanjin nodded: "I'm leaving."

"Oh, right, he also told you to be careful in the future, and that you should sleep with one eye open at night."

Upon hearing Zhu Duanjin's words,

Bai Xu was stunned for a moment.

This little messenger has left me with a head full of questions.

Zhu Duanjin ignored the stunned Bai Xu and instead walked to Ye Ran's side.

Ye Ran wasn't given a chance to speak at all.

He placed the essence of the law in Ye Ran's hand.

Ye Ran stared in astonishment at Zhu Duanjin's actions.

The thing in his hand was clearly unusual.

He didn't understand why this extraordinary being, capable of slaughtering entire nations, would give him something so valuable.

"Don't look at me. I've been asked to do this, so you have to take it."

As Zhu Duanjin spoke, a thought suddenly occurred to him:

"If you really feel bad about it, please help me persuade Huang Dongdong..."

"Old Zhu!!!" Bai Xu looked at Zhu Duanjin speechlessly.

"Alright!! Aren't you ashamed???"

"What's so embarrassing about it? You're just jealous that I found a suitable successor first, aren't you?" Zhu Duanjin didn't care, but still walked away sullenly.

"Bai Xu, we've avenged our young brother. If there's nothing else, we'll be leaving," said the burly woman who had been wielding the hammer.

He pushed off with both feet, shooting out like a rocket.

Subsequently,

The others also left Zhu Family Mountain Gate one after another.

"Old Bai, I'm leaving now. Don't be so sad. Brother Lan doesn't like seeing these things either."

After Zhu Duanjin was the last to open the lava gate and leave,

Only Bai Xu, Ye Ran, and Chen Anning remained present.

Bai Xu pondered for a moment,

Then he turned to look at Chen Anning.

At this moment, Chen Anning's eyes were filled with shock, in addition to sadness.

He had initially thought that Bai Xu had summoned him to offer assistance.

Turns out I was called here just to watch a show?

Chen Anning now looked at Bai Xu with a strong sense of unreality...

Who would have thought that Bai Xu had such an organization behind him?

Although there were only seven people

But these are seven nation-destroying level extraordinary beings!!

If this news gets out...

Which power can sleep soundly?

But he and Bai Xu were not related by blood.

Why tell him such an important secret?

For a fleeting moment, Chen Anning even wondered if Bai Xu might kill him to silence him...

Just as Chen Anning was lost in thought,

Bai Xu, however, delivered a small tower to Chen Anning.

"This is..." Looking at the small tower in his hand.

Chen Anning was somewhat bewildered.

He had witnessed the previous battles; this was the signature treasure of Bai Xu's organization...

"This is the Desolate Tower," Bai Xu explained.
