She remembered... that the boy, ever since he could wield the seven-colored sword light, had always... retained the seven-colored color... even though later... the power contained within him... was no longer seven-colored.
But his sword light... except for a few times, was still... seven-colored.
At the time, she...did not understand why the boy persisted in this radiant path.
The boy didn't explain it to her either.
But after seeing that seven-colored hairpin, she seemed to... understand everything.
Boom—Crack!
Just then, the surroundings shattered as if in a dream.
When they came to their senses, Tianqing and the boy had arrived in front of a magnificent and imposing hall.
At this moment... Nan Xiaoyan and Lu Liang were standing at the entrance of the main hall with puzzled expressions.
Upon seeing the two appear, they hurriedly rushed over.
"Su Bai, are you alright? I noticed you came here earlier, but when I finished my work, I couldn't find you. Where did you go?"
Nan Xiaoyan frowned.
Su Bai didn't speak, but simply transformed into a black streak of light and left.
"Huh? What's going on? Su Bai's swordsmanship... isn't it supposed to be seven-colored... why is the sword energy flowing out black?"
Nan Xiaoyan looked at Tian Qing with a puzzled expression.
The latter shook his head, said nothing, and also turned into a black streak of light and left.
"Huh? What, you're here too...?"
Nan Xiaoyan's brows furrowed even deeper.
"What...what happened to Su Bai?" Lu Liang also looked puzzled.
"I don't know, don't ask. Let's go prepare for the Immortal City Grand Competition first..."
"Furthermore, spread these portraits out so that these guys understand... what kind of people the Ten City Lords they once worshipped as gods really are!"
With a flick of her finger, Nan Xiaoyan conjured up thousands of human figures.
Lu Liangfang's expression darkened upon seeing him.
"These portraits...aren't they of the people who won first place in the Immortal City Grand Competition over the years?"
"How did they end up looking like this?"
"This is the divine puppet that Su Bai killed in the Heavenly Demon Cave."
Nan Xiaoyan said in a deep voice, "It seems... these so-called city lords didn't let these people embark on the path to the Void at all. Instead, they refined them into divine puppets to guard the divine race's backup plan left in the Heavenly Demon Cave!"
"What!"
Lu Liang was shocked. "Does this mean that our Immortal Ruins have not provided any assistance to the Immortal Tomb Land in all these years?"
"Damn it, those beasts... they actually plotted to this extent!"
"I suppose... the situation at the Immortal Tomb is not optimistic either." Nan Xiaoyan nodded.
"If all else fails, gather all the immortals in the current Immortal Ruins and send them all to the Immortal Tomb to assist Emperor Fuxi and the others!"
Lu Liang shouted.
"You should worry about yourself first."
