To fight or to retreat?
For Jiang Yuan, there will always be only one answer to this question.
"Do you know? They used to call me an apostle of hell because I would bring death to them!"
Jiang Yuan gently wiped the Gentleman's Sword, but the blood aura surrounding him made him appear anything but gentle and refined; instead, he resembled an executioner with his hands stained with blood.
"The third ladder is not like the first or second ladder. This place is impregnable and cannot be destroyed by you alone!" the ladder guardian threatened.
"But I want the red spider lilies to bloom here!"
The phantom of Death and the curse of the Sea God appeared together. Jiang Yuan smiled wickedly at his reflection in the sword, "So, can I borrow some of the blood of my fellow villagers?"
"Arrogant!"
Within the impregnable third-tier battle formation, disdain for Jiang Yuan resounded. If they had previously been wary of Jiang Yuan, now, with their combined forces, they were no longer afraid at all.
No matter how powerful Jiang Yuan is, under such a battle formation that integrates offense and defense, he can only retreat.
"Arrogant?"
A murderous rage ignited in his heart, and at this moment, the Gentleman's Sword was already entangled in black hellfire.
Jiang Yuan pointed his sword at the thousands of troops and grinned, "Then let the red spider lilies bloom in this deep sea, and let this place become hell!"
The Eternal Domain entered a cooling-off period, as did the Devouring Starry Sky, but Jiang Yuan still challenged his opponent.
For a madman immersed in slaughter, no external conditions can make him back down. As long as the sword in his hand is not broken, as long as the soul is not scattered, and as long as the fire in his heart is burning, the killing will not stop.
"The sense of death, control over the six realms."
"Deep-sea rituals, the gods are silenced."
Jiang Yuan, who had reached the seventh level of the Divine Realm, merged into the Third Heavenly Ladder, bringing only fear and death to it.
A cold glint of sword light, severed limbs and broken arms.
Red spider lilies bloom in the blood, and this place has become a hell in the sea!
Above the Heavenly Ladder, within the Dragon Palace.
"He's the one you've been longing for, isn't he?"
The Dragon Girl calmly watched everything that was happening inside the Third Heavenly Ladder, including Jiang Yuan's bloody battle.
Leng Yue, who had been missing, reappeared in a daze, but her gaze remained fixed on Jiang Yuan.
"I told you before that you can see your future at the end of the sea."
The dragon girl tossed out a few pieces of tortoise shell and said quietly, "Now, you should see your future, right?"
"Red spider lilies, he bloomed them for me!"
Leng Yue didn't answer; instead, she stared intently at the clusters of red spider lilies emerging from behind Jiang Yuan.
"You see, you won't be a part of his world, and you won't be a part of his future!"
The dragon girl used bewitching words, along with the tortoise shell, to subconsciously influence Leng Yue.
"You may be a very important person to him, but you are definitely not the most important person."
"In this battlefield that everyone wants to escape, you have only one destination: to become a stepping stone for him and the woman he loves."
Are you really willing to accept this?
The Dragon Girl turned her face to wait for Leng Yue's answer. If there were any outsiders present, they would have noticed that the once young and noble Dragon Girl now looked old and frail.
"What can I do if I'm not reconciled? I love him, and I don't care whether he loves me or not." Leng Yue was as direct as ever, but this time her directness was tinged with an unconcealable sense of loss.
He will love you very much; there are just some obstacles you haven't cleared yet.
The Dragon Girl smiled faintly, her voice filled with reminiscence, "Just like Emperor Yu back then, he loved me very much, but between the Sea-Stabilizing Needle and me, he chose the former."
"But there's no denying that he still loves me, right?"
The dragon girl's laughter was eerie, more like a hysterical sob.
Leng Yue fell silent. Since entering the Sea of Annihilation, she had no idea what she was doing.
She killed! From the innocent and weak to the strong, her hands were covered in blood.
She assimilated into the sea race, abandoned her original identity, and stepped into the path that the dragon girl had planned for her, or rather, the lie she had woven for her.
She joined the dragon girl in hating men and taking revenge on the world.
What was her motivation?
Perhaps it was merely a desperate measure to save their lives, or perhaps it was simply to prevent the Chinese nation from being destroyed by the sea tribes.
But Leng Yue knew perfectly well who she was doing this for!
"Two people in love must overcome all obstacles to get closer," the Dragon Girl said in a hoarse voice.
"Clear the obstacles?" Leng Yue murmured a few words.
"Yes, clear the obstacles!"
Leng Yue looked puzzled and said, "Why choose me? There are clearly many more suitable people than me!"
“I told you, you’re just like me.”
The Dragon Girl turned around and looked at the Dragon Transformation Pool of the Ancient Sea Dragon Palace, and said, "If no one helps you, you will live your whole life in regret and remorse."
"But I promised him that I would only be a knife in his hand from now on." Leng Yue's lips trembled slightly, showing that even she herself did not believe such nonsense.
Why would someone who could be his woman willingly become a murderous weapon? She wasn't stupid; she simply had no other choice.
Even if you're making a knife, it has to be something the user is willing to hold!
Leng Yue remained silent upon hearing the Dragon Girl's words.
During this period, under the deliberate guidance of the Dragon Girl, her obsession has become uncontrollable. Even though she knows what the consequences will be if this continues, she cannot control it and does not want to control it.
Just as the Dragon Girl once said, she was willing to use her precious possessions to change this future.
"Never wait for someone else's charity to give you love that you can fight for yourself."
The Dragon Girl gently pushed Leng Yue from behind, and in her daze, she was awakened by a bone-chilling pain, but she did not resist.
