The power generated by the explosion at Jinrong was nothing short of terrifying.
Li Fan was like a floating duckweed, struck by the shockwave.
The already strained bones creaked and groaned, as if they might collapse at any moment.
But at that moment, a familiar sword aura swept past Li Fan.
Yang Dong used his sword to clear a path and protect Li Fan.
His body was already covered in frost.
Gu Nianyan's attack was not so easy to block.
......
Jin Rong died, and the invincible fighter was saved.
As they went back and forth, the gap in combat power continued to widen.
Whether to stay or leave, Gu Nianyan was torn.
If Gu Nianyan stays to continue fighting, then in order to turn the tide, she must quickly reduce the number of her opponents.
There are methods, though.
As long as Gu Nianyan is willing to withstand an attack from Ye Gu and the others, and then recklessly charge at Yang Dong and the other two.
The attacks from Ye Gu and the others could at most destroy most of his magical artifacts.
As for Yang Dong and the other two, Gu Nianyan was also very confident in winning them over.
But the key issue is that neither the Northern Frontier Immortal-Slaying Sword nor that monster seems to be afraid of death.
Even if the two were determined to exchange lives, Gu Nianyan wasn't entirely confident she would survive.
Moreover, even if I survive, how to face other invincible opponents is another problem.
Gu Nianyan was certain that if there was a chance to kill her, those invincible members of the Great Zhou royal family would not miss it, even if it meant trading their lives for hers!
"withdraw!"
Thoughts arise and cease in an instant.
Compared to the future, Gu Nianyan chose to survive first.
Only by surviving can there be endless possibilities.
As Gu Nianyan spoke, he directly severed the spell used to suppress Ye Gu and the others.
Rumble!
The iceberg collapsed, and the explosion, carrying frost, sprayed outwards in all directions.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Nianyan reached out and grabbed, and a frosty palm tore through the void and enveloped a certain part of the battlefield.
Seeing this, the group of demigods, led by Gu Dao, breathed a sigh of relief.
The frost-covered hand enveloped everyone and quickly vanished into the void.
......
Compared to Gu Nianyan, Liu Chi's retreat was much easier and more effortless.
After forcing Chen Kui and others to retreat, he even had the spare capacity to send Liu Zhi to help Zhu Wuji share the burden.
After the two met up, they fled into the distance.
"Brother Gu, Brother Liu, brothers, wait for me!"
Just as everyone was fleeing, Yan Xiao's tearful voice rang out.
Among the Ziyang Immortal Sect, he was the weakest.
Although he is stronger than Bansi, his strength is only limited.
Although Jiang Lan was no longer as fierce as at the beginning, she was still able to maintain a clear advantage over him.
His desire to escape is nothing but wishful thinking.
Yan Xiao's voice received no response whatsoever.
Whether it was Gu Nianyan, Liu Chi, or Zhu Wuji, no one turned around to look at him!
Just as Yan Xiao was in despair, Chen Yao's voice rang out like heavenly music: "Palace Master Yan, don't panic, follow me and fight your way out!"
Crimson blades flashed, tearing the battlefield apart.
Jiang Lan's surging righteous energy tried to stop it, but it was directly blasted away by the blade light.
On the other side, Zhou Changzong, the second-generation patriarch of the royal family, was also killed by Chen Yao with a single blow.
"Chen Yao, you ungrateful scoundrel."
I swear I will kill you! Not only will you die, but your descendants will die too!
Zhou Changzong was filled with rage, but he was helpless.
Chen Yao's strength is definitely superior to his.
Chen Yao wanted to leave, and Zhou Changzong couldn't stop him at all.
The shouting and cursing were just an outlet for venting inner dissatisfaction.
He has lingered on for three thousand years, all for this day.
He was about to kill another top-tier half-immortal, but because of Chen Yao's interference, that person escaped. How could he not be angry?
What drove Zhou Changzong even crazier was that Chen Yao not only ran away with Yan Xiao.
He even left behind a message: "My descendants have all died out. If you are really angry, then go and slaughter the Wenxian Pavilion!"
"Chen Yao, you old bastard, I will never let you get away with this!"
Zhou Changzong's chest heaved violently; even with his usually restrained nature, he was provoked to arouse his anger.
But his shouts were destined to be useless.
......
"Brother Chen, thank you!"
Yan Xiao said sincerely, "I swear on my path that I will stand by Brother Chen and help him in the future."
"Anyone who wants to harm Brother Chen will have to step over my dead body first."
Swearing an oath on the path of cultivation is enough to explain Yan Xiao's feelings at this moment.
If it weren't for Chen Yao, he would be dead today.
No amount of gratitude towards Chen Yao is too much.
"Brother Yan, we have always been allies!"
Chen Yao did not take credit for himself and maintained his previous attitude.
"Yes, yes, we are allies!"
Yan Xiao nodded repeatedly.
......
"I didn't die, I survived."
"Dad, we survived!"
Outside the battlefield, the sound of tears of joy could be heard.
A man collapsed to the ground, and when he turned around, he saw the mangled corpse behind him.
"father!"
A piercing scream tore through the night sky.
The man's voice was only one in ten thousand.
The sound of weeping gradually spread.
......
Above the ruins of the Great Zhou Imperial Palace, figures floated in the air.
The Ziyang Immortal Sect has left, but the two sides remain clearly distinct and in opposition.
"Jiang Lan, although the Ziyang Immortal Sect has been defeated and fled, our crisis is not over."
The reinforcements from the Immortal Sect have probably already set off.
I propose we put aside our past grievances and unite to fight against the Immortal Sect!
Zhou Moye stepped out from the crowd.
Although today's earth-shattering battle was not in his plan, his most important objective has been achieved.
Although turning against the Ziyang Immortal Sect is very untimely, the alliance is already unstoppable.
Jiang Lan glanced at Zhou Moye, then turned to Shangguan Rou: "Your Majesty, please have someone clean up the mess!"
Too many people died in tonight's battle.
These people are not just cold numbers on official documents.
They are human lives, vibrant human lives.
If she could, Jiang Lan would love to kill all those self-righteous fools in the royal family.
This battle was unnecessary.
The Immortal Sect is inherently a sword hanging over everyone's head.
Both publicly and privately, our side and the Immortal Sect are adversaries.
If the royal family wants to overthrow the immortal sects, they can simply come and discuss cooperation.
Neither he nor Li Fan would refuse to cooperate.
If we cooperate, would we be in such a passive position in today's battle?
Absolutely not!
This battle could have taken place in the royal family's secret realm, and it could have avoided affecting so many innocent civilians.
But it's precisely because of this group of idiots that things turned out this way.
How could Jiang Lan not be angry?
Having Shangguan Rou lead the cleanup was a way of suppressing her inner anger.
Jiang Lan tried her best to calm herself down and not lose her temper.
"Jiang Lan, no matter what you think, the alliance is a fact."
He killed a top-tier half-immortal of the Ziyang Immortal Sect, and the Ziyang Immortal Sect will not let this go no matter what.
If we don't unite, then there's only one fate awaiting both of us: death!
Zhou Moye continued.
Jiang Lan ignored him and watched Shangguan Rou walk away.
“Jiang Lan, I know you are powerful now, and I also know that the Northern Frontier Immortal Slayer Sword and others destroyed the Yin Corpse Sect.”
But my Great Zhou royal family is not necessarily weaker than yours!
Zhou Moye said with an angry expression.
The Yin Corpse Sect has been wiped out?
Jiang Lan knew nothing about this from beginning to end.
Not only her, but Ye Gu was also shocked.
The strength of the five major immortal sects lies in their sect leaders.
Ye Gu was certain that he could not possibly be a match for the leader of the Yin Corpse Sect.
Even a single person with the Northern Frontier Immortal-Slaying Sword couldn't accomplish this.
Could it be that it was someone from the Jixia Academy who made the move?
No, that's not right!
Jiang Lan clearly knew nothing about this.
Who exactly organized this?
