When you step out of the Primordial Divine Realm, what greets you is not the cool and refreshing breath of Canglan, but thick smoke and blood.
Yun Che raised his eyes and looked around. In his ears, he could hear Shui Meiyin's trembling moan.
Looking at the figure of Yun Che that appeared right before his eyes, Long Bai's pair of dragon eyes suddenly expanded, resentment, excitement, excitement, mania... all kinds of emotions that were so complicated that he couldn't sort them out surged up.
He dreamed of chopping Yun Che into pieces, and wished he could use all the tortures he could think of on him. Today, his desire to vent his hatred on Yun Che was far greater than strangling the demon clan.
At this moment, Yun Che was very close, but he did not attack. Instead, he retreated and roared, “Stop!”
The bloody and tragic battlefield changed drastically in an instant under this imperial order. This was the order of the Dragon Emperor, and every word of it went straight into the soul, making people dare not have the slightest intention of disobeying.
All of a sudden, all the mystics in the Western Region quickly withdrew their forces, and the fierce battle at the highest level in the world was forcibly stopped in a very short period of time.
Before anyone understood what he meant, the Dragon Emperor had already issued his second order, which was still just two words: "Retreat."
Even the Western Region Divine Masters felt pity for the miserable state of the Northern Region Xuanists. As the Northern Region Xuanists suffered more and more casualties, the already great advantage of the Western Region became even greater. Under this situation, it would not take too long for them to crush all of their opponents.
If you retreat at this time, you will undoubtedly give the other party a chance to catch their breath.
But no one dares to disobey the Dragon Emperor's orders.
All the gods in the Western Regions immediately retreated westward, not forgetting to take away the bodies of their companions or tribesmen.
The two sides who had been fighting in a bloody battle before had retreated and were facing each other from a distance after a while.
In the distance, the Withered Dragon Venerable, the Qilin Emperor, the Azure Dragon Emperor, and the others also stopped fighting under the Dragon Emperor’s order. Chi Wuyao and Mu Xuanyin did not stop at all and flew down towards Yun Che…
The Dragon Emperor did not give any orders, and Dragons Four and Five did not stop him.
"Demon Lord!"
"Demon...Lord..."
“Demon Lord!!”
…
The calls reached Yun Che's ears. They used to be so passionate, excited and arrogant. But now, half of them were filled with blood and tears, and the other half were hoarse and weak.
Moreover, there are too many missing familiar voices and familiar smells.
Yan Yi and Yan Er didn't even bother to catch their breath, and rushed to Yun Che at the fastest speed. Their thin and withered bodies had always been stained with the blood of others, but now they were covered with wounds.
Especially their arms, where the flesh and blood had almost completely shattered, leaving only bones. Even the exposed bones were covered with broken marks.
It is hard to imagine what a horrific battle they had experienced before, and what a terrible pressure they had to endure.
With painful gasps, Yan San almost rolled and crawled back. He knelt on one knee, blood dripping from his limbs, and he was gasping for breath, but he still stood in front of Yun Che like a fierce god.
"How could this happen... How could this happen..." Shui Meiyin looked around, mumbling in vain. Her eyes touched the floating city in the distance, and she whispered: "Qian Kun... Dragon City?"
As the master of the Qiankun Thorn, with some incomplete memories from the Qiankun Thorn, how could he not recognize the Qiankun Dragon City forged by the power of the Qiankun Thorn.
This mysterious ship, which was gifted to the Dragon God clan by the Elemental Creation God and should have disappeared in the ancient war, unexpectedly appeared in this era and this place... It also made Shui Meiyin instantly realize the cause of this disaster.
Then, her spiritual sense touched Shui Yingyue's breath.
"Sister!" She screamed in surprise, and without caring about anything else, she instantly appeared beside Shui Yingyue.
Shui Yingyue supported herself with her sword, her blue dress half stained with blood. She looked at Shui Meiyin, who was in tears, and smiled slightly with her pale face, and whispered: "Meiyin, I'm glad you're okay..."
After the heavy burden was lifted, Shui Yingyue's whole body suddenly became weak and she could no longer support herself. She fell into Shui Meiyin's arms.
Long Bai stared at Yun Che calmly, but Yun Che's gaze did not linger on Long Bai at all.
His consciousness wandered coldly and chaotically... The Canglan Divine Realm was gone, leaving only a ruin that was so dilapidated that it could not be dilapidated any more.
He found Caizhi's aura. She was protected by the Taichu Dragon Emperor and had fallen into a coma. There were no six star gods around her. Only six different star god auras were floating in the air... But each one was as weak as a gust of wind. Perhaps in a moment, it would be completely lost between heaven and earth.
Qianye Ying'er's strength was exhausted, and even her life force became weak, almost on the verge of death. The silent blood of the Demon Emperor proved that she had made the most resolute choice... If it weren't for Qianye Wugu's life span transfer to protect her with all his strength, she would no longer exist in his life.
He sensed Mu Xuanyin’s presence, saw her figure, and made eye contact with her. He should have been extremely excited… However, there was no joy in his heart, because something too heavy weighed down all his emotions and thoughts.
There were only four Yama and Eclipse Moon left, the Nine Witches including Jie Xin Jie Ling were all seriously injured, only three Brahma Kings who followed Qianye Ying'er were left, nearly half of the Taichu Dragons were killed, and as many as 60% of the Northern Realm Kings were killed.
In a dream, everything changed.
The Western Region camp, all six realms are present. Seven of the eight dragon gods are still alive, and there are five more ancient dragon gods that are extremely powerful and have no information or records about them before.
"Despair?" Long Bai said calmly. Like the emperor of the sky, he looked down proudly at the humble mortals who were already trampled under his feet and could be crushed to pieces at any time.
He wanted to see horror, confusion, paleness, pain, fear, despair on Yun Che’s face… until he cried, roared, went crazy, collapsed, and lost control…
But as time went by, he became gradually disappointed.
Because when facing the pools of blood spread out by the dark blood around him, his face was cold and indifferent from beginning to end... unusually calm.
Only drops of blood were dripping silently between his clenched fingers.
"Where's Tian Xiao?" Yun Che asked softly. He didn't look at Long Bai, as if he didn't hear his words at all.
In response, the Yama Demons and Yama Ghosts gnashed their teeth. After a long while, Yan Wu murmured, "Father is tired... he went to rest."
A cold wind blew, and Chi Wuyao and Mu Xuanyin landed beside Yun Che.
Seeing Yun Che leaving the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm ahead of schedule and emerging, Chi Wuyao’s first reaction was a dreamlike surprise… but immediately, her heart and soul suddenly dimmed.
Because Yun Che's profound energy aura was still at the tenth level of the Divine Sovereign Realm.
She had always thought that in the three years of the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm, Yun Che would definitely be able to successfully break through to the Divine Lord Realm. And his Divine Lord power might be enough to transcend the boundaries of this world, enough to strangle all powerful enemies, and save people from any desperate danger.
But in these three years in the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm, he hadn't made any breakthroughs! ?
“Yun Che,” Chi Wuyao whispered, “Get ready to leave here.”
Mu Xuanyin suddenly reached out and grabbed Yun Che's arm.
Yun Che did not respond, but slowly raised his hand and pushed Mu Xuanyin’s arm away, his face expressionless.
“Now is not the time for you to act willful!” Mu Xuanyin said coldly.
Chi Wuyao said softly, “Long Bai returned to the Dragon God Realm early and mobilized all the God Lords in the Western Region King Realm with an extremely domineering imperial order. He also awakened the five withered dragon venerables who had been in seclusion. As for the Qiankun Dragon City, it only took them two hours to descend from the Dragon God Realm to this place.”
Yun Che: “…”
"I learned this in advance from Zhou Xuzi. They all had the opportunity to escape, but no one chose to leave. They did this in order to wait for you to safely leave the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm... which is right now!"
Yun Che: “…………”
“As long as you are alive, there is still infinite hope for the Northern Divine Region. If you die… all of their deaths will be in vain!!”
Chi Wuyao’s voice became increasingly harsh, and her hand had already grasped Yun Che’s cold wrist… but he still slowly and firmly pushed it away.
Qianye Wugu fell from the sky with Qianye Ying'er. His breath became particularly weak and his face was as pale as paper. However, he still stood proudly like a pine tree, his old face calm and composed.
Under Qianye Wugu’s vitality, Qianye Ying’er finally recovered some strength. She stood up with difficulty, but did not pounce on Yun Che. Instead, she gritted her teeth, with the most ferocious look in her eyes and the most ruthless words between her lips: “Go… Go now!”
"Demon Lord...go away!" Fen Daoqi gritted his teeth.
“Demon Lord… let’s go…” Yan Wu struggled to stand up from the ground: “Don’t… let my father and the others… die in vain…”
“Demon Lord…”
"Demon Lord... let's go!"
…………
The previous excited calls turned into panicked urging. Amid the hasty shouts, they gave up this brief respite one by one, struggled to stand up, and began to squeeze and urge the remaining strength in their bodies.
They had personally experienced the horror of the Western Divine Region. And the returning Demon Lord's profound energy was still at the Divine Sovereign Realm... He finally returned safely under their perseverance, but he did not bring the expected ray of hope.
Then, the last thing they could do was to use their remaining life and strength to protect him and ensure his safe departure.
"Leave? Ha, can you leave?" White Rainbow Dragon God sneered: "At this point, you are still dreaming such a naive daydream?"
They stopped attacking under the Dragon Emperor's order, but a vast power firmly surrounded the entire Canglan Divine Realm. As long as they wanted, no one would be able to leave this area alive.
Yun Che still did not react. His eyes were sinking slightly bit by bit, and his expression was so calm that it was a little scary.
"Demon...Lord..."
A sound much fainter than the buzz of a mosquito came with the wind. If Yun Che had not had sufficient spiritual perception, it would have been impossible to hear it clearly.
Yun Che finally moved, taking a step forward and coming in front of Tian Guhu.
He leaned over, stretched out his arms, pressed his five fingers on his chest, and a pure white light slowly enveloped his whole body.
Looking at the divine power of light in Yun Che's hand, Long Bai almost broke his ten fingers instantly. His facial features were twisted in gloom, and after a long time, they gradually calmed down.
The lost arms, the broken body, the blurred face... Yun Che couldn't bear to look at them. The white light in his hand couldn't save him, it could only alleviate his pain.
The fact that he had managed to hold on to his last breath until now was a miracle that could not help but move Yun Che.
“Gu Hu, what do you want to say? I’m listening.” Yun Che asked softly.
Tian Guhu's lips slowly and laboriously opened and closed. After a long while, he finally uttered a voice as weak as mist: "We... people from the Northern Territory... were born in darkness... and are burdened with darkness..."
"But we... are not born sinners... We just want to... live freely... under the light of day..."
The world became extremely quiet. The sound, which was extremely faint, reached everyone's heart. Even many gods in the Western Divine Region had a complex and strange light in their eyes.
“Demon Lord… please… escape from here… please… for the sake of the Northern Divine Region… stay alive…”
Tears welled up on Tian Guhu's bloody face: "This must be... the most selfish and unreasonable request... in the world... but... only the Demon Lord... only the Demon Lord can..."
Tian Guhu's words, filled with despair and pleading, violently shook every soul string in the deepest parts of the hearts of all the Northern Territory's profound practitioners.
Millions of years of darkness, millions of years of being accused of crimes, millions of years of cruel fate... All generations of king realm gods and emperors had completely given up the fight, and the rising Demon Queen had also lay dormant for a full ten thousand years after a test, unable to move.
Only Demon Lord Yun Che brought them the opportunity and led them to truly touch and possess hope in these few months.
As long as the Demon Lord is here, there will be hope. If the Demon Lord is calamity, the core of the Northern Divine Region will be destroyed and there will be no light forever.
Therefore, Tian Guhu used his last breath and last tear to make the "most selfish and unreasonable" plea to Yun Che.
“No need to say more.” Yun Che raised his palm, and a more concentrated force of light slowly covered it… In his spiritual perception, between this disaster-filled world, there was no breath of the Huangtian lineage anymore. From the Huangtian God Sovereign to the Huangtian Realm King Tian Muyi, they were all buried and killed.
“Tian Guhu, listen to me.” Yun Che looked straight ahead with an indifferent expression, “I promise you in the name of Yun Che and the Northern Territory Demon Lord…”
"From today on, all the people in the Northern Territory will stand tall under the light of heaven. No one will dare to look down on or bully the people in the Northern Territory without reason, and no one will dare to accuse the dark profound power and dark profound people of crimes."
"You and your people will not die in vain, and every drop of your blood will not be shed in vain. Future generations in the Northern Territory will always remember whose blood was used to buy their new life. As long as I live, the Huangtian lineage will be forever glorious!"
The words were bland, without sadness, joy, sorrow or anger. But every word was clearly heard and heard by everyone.
The expressions of all the Northern Territory profound practitioners were frozen, and their vision was silent and hazy. This was not Yun Che's promise to Tian Guhu, but a vow to all of them... Even though, what this vow described was more like a dream that would break at the slightest poke, but even if it was only for a few brief moments, they desperately believed and imagined it.
Qianye Ying’er, Chi Wuyao, and Mu Xuanyin stood there in shock. They looked at Yun Che… At this moment, he looked different than they had ever seen him before.
The corners of Tian Guhu's mouth trembled violently, and tears instantly gushed out like a spring.
"Thank...Demon...Lord..."
He used all his strength... and shouted these three words at the loudest voice he could. His eyes, which had refused to close, slowly closed.
Qing'er... I'm here to accompany you...
“…” The white light on Yun Che’s hand disappeared.
His hand gently left Tian Guhu's body, and on his fingertips, there was a trace of blood with a hint of residual warmth.
Tian Guhu, the power of Yama in his body was forcibly integrated by Yun Che using the Eternal Tribulation of Darkness. The price was a sharp reduction in his lifespan.
He was a tool of revenge created by Yun Che with ruthless and vicious means. At that time, he had no hesitation or reluctance.
From the first day he stepped into the Northern Divine Region, he decided to use the power of the Northern Divine Region to avenge himself.
On the day when the Northern Territory was crowned as the emperor, every one of those Northern Territory profound practitioners who knelt at his feet and shouted "Demon Lord" was a successfully "tamed" tool of revenge in his eyes.
In the battle of the Eastern Region, countless Northern Region profound practitioners were killed or injured, but this did not cause him even the slightest wave of emotion or heartache... because that was the role of a tool, and its destiny.
Before he knew that the Blue Pole Star still existed, during the battle in the Western Divine Territory, he had already decided to use the corpses of these tools to complete the final act of the war of revenge.
…………
But now...
Why is there such a sharp pain in my heart?
Angry... so close to being out of control.
…………
“No realm king or god emperor has ever been revered like this…Brother Yun Che, I am increasingly convinced that in their will, they are no longer just fighting for the Northern Divine Region. Perhaps, they will also be willing to fight for you without regrets, and even without fear of life and death.”
…………
Before leaving for the Seven Star Realm, Shui Meiyin's words once again echoed in his heart.
At that time, he immediately refuted and was unwilling to admit it.
“The dream just now was good.” Looking at Yun Che, Long Bai spoke calmly. In his dragon eyes, apart from Yun Che’s figure, he could not see any other existence: “Yun Che, Northern Territory Demon Lord… Long time no see.”
“Haha…haha…hahahaha…”
Yun Che’s expression finally changed. It was not anger, nor fear, but laughter. It was a low laugh that made people feel creepy for no apparent reason.
"Long Bai," he said slowly and quietly, "very good, you are really good."
"In the past three years in the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm, I have been cultivating my soul in peace and quiet, and gradually brushing away the evil spirits in my soul, allowing myself to go from being seven parts evil spirits and three parts human, to being three parts evil spirits and seven parts human."
“And you succeeded the first moment I returned to this world,” Yun Che slowly raised his hand, a faint black light condensed on his drooping fingertips: “You released all the evil spirits that I had suppressed with great difficulty in my heart.”
"Tell me...how should I...repay you!"
