Chapter 173 Delivering the Corpse



"Qingling, I beg you, I'm really scared..."

Long Qilan pleaded in fear.

She felt inexplicably uneasy, and her intuition told her that she absolutely must not head towards Fengming County.

She's willing to take a detour.

Yue Qingling sighed. He was also unsure about the situation in Fengming County, so he said, "Alright then, let's take a look at the surrounding environment first."

He then carried Long Qilan on his back and flew a short distance westward.

Upon seeing this, Yue Qingling realized something was wrong.

After leaving the deep mountains, every village they passed through was found to be dead.

Not only humans, but even animals perished.

The entire village died; not a single household survived.

This is especially true further west.

His heart sank to the bottom.

But he was unsure whether these people died before or after the banquet.

Yue Qingling became irritated and continued flying westward for a short distance.

On a hilltop, he saw a pool of black water.

In this black water, a bronze hammer stands alone on the ground.

Upon seeing the copper hammer, Yue Qingling's entire body began to tremble.

He almost fell to the ground.

Long Qilan quickly helped him up.

Yue Qingling came to the copper hammer, covered her eyes, and dared not look.

After taking a quick look, he bent over and began to vomit.

“Qingling…”

Long Qilan was crying while patting his back.

Yue Qingling had not eaten for three days, and what she vomited was only clear water.

He vomited for a while before finally mustering the courage to survey the terrain.

The area is covered in black water, and judging by the extent of this coverage and the damage to the surface, it's clear that a fierce battle took place here.

Yue Qingling frantically searched around, almost frantically.

He couldn't believe that Guo Feng, whom he had wronged, was dead.

However, just as he was searching, a gruesome body appeared under a pile of sand.

Yue Qingling mustered up her courage to come and see.

It was Guo Feng who escaped from Dongzhou.

"ah……"

Yue Qingling let out a wail. He felt his blood rush to his head, his knees went weak, and he knelt directly in front of the corpse.

Guo Feng is dead?

Guo Feng died after leaving Fengming County, so what about Di Zhengchen?

A sense of despair welled up within me.

What Yue Qingling least wanted to believe was probably the truth.

Fengming County must have fallen...

He handled Guo Feng's body with trembling hands.

His once tall and strong body is now reduced to a mangled head and an empty chest; his limbs have been gnawed away.

Yue Qingling couldn't bear to look directly at the corpse and could only gently sense the spiritual energy emanating from it.

Her primordial spirit had long since shattered, but in a daze, a tiny bit of information still entered Yue Qingling's mind.

In an instant, he saw this part of Guo Feng's memory.

Di Zhengchen perished along with all the invaders of Fengming County in a martyrdom.

Guo Feng came from the west.

However, the intruders persisted and their numbers grew.

Guo Feng had nowhere to run.

He didn't want to bring these invaders back to the West.

Therefore, he chose to fight them here.

His Xuanji Realm strength made him invincible, but there were too many invaders.

All the invaders in the entire Northern Continent were drawn to Guo Feng.

He fought for three days, finally dying from exhaustion.

As he lay dying, he watched the intruders devour his body, but he didn't care.

His gaze was fixed on the surging procession heading towards the Western Continent, and he died with resentment in his heart.

The invaders from the North Continent have no choice but to target the West Continent, which he has cherished and protected all his life!

Yue Qingling collapsed to the ground, feeling utterly powerless.

Guo Feng is dead, Di Zhengchen is dead.

Who in this world can stop the invaders?

The successor to the Great Emperor also doesn't have enough time.

Yue Qingling had already practiced diligently, but it was all to no avail.

Yue Qingling was utterly desperate.

“Qingling…”

Long Qilan walked over with tears in her eyes.

Yue Qingling reached out her hand, asking her to help her up.

He slowly got up, took out a piece of cloth, and wrapped Guo Feng's body inside.

Then he put the bronze hammer away.

There wasn't enough time to make a coffin.

He said expressionlessly, "Qilan, I'm going to Xizhou! The invaders are about to arrive there!"

“Let’s go back…” Long Qilan repeated the words in fear.

"No, I want to go to the Western Continent!"

He forcefully stuffed Long Qilan into the painting of beauties, carried Guo Feng's corpse, and transformed into a white light, flying towards Xizhou.

Hurry!

The message must be delivered before the intruders arrive!

The Western Continent is not the Northern Continent, and the demon race is very united!

He channeled his spiritual energy, moving with lightning speed, and finally, he saw swarms of invaders running in groups across the desolate land.

They were a dark, dense mass, and whatever lay ahead of them would be mercilessly crushed and swallowed up.

Yue Qingling had no intention of getting entangled; he overtook the monsters and sprinted with all his might.

Finally, he left those monsters behind.

He arrived at the border of the Western Continent.

He didn't have time to notify the garrison commander here, and flew directly to the capital of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.

Everything in Chencheng remained the same.

Yue Qingling rushed directly into the palace.

Li Wan, who was cultivating in the garden with her daughter, was somewhat surprised to see Yue Qingling descend from the sky.

But then, as if struck by lightning, she fainted.

"Father!!!"

Guo Mingwu's sorrowful cry was like an alarm bell, alerting the entire Western Continent.
