Shen Zhao closed his eyes and remained silent.
Darba nodded to Shen Zhao: "Benefactor, I have only one request."
I hope that you will not make things difficult for the people of the Xiongnu Kingdom; they are merely innocent and foolish people manipulated by imperial power.
“If I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?” Shen Zhao shook his head. “The grudges between the Xiongnu and the Longhan Heavenly Dynasty are none of my business. My purpose in coming here is only to prevent the possibility of the Nine Netherworlds emerging.”
"So be it. The lives of the Xiongnu people are in the hands of the Empress. I have no need to force it."
After saying this, Darba knelt cross-legged on the ground, put his hands together again, and faced west.
"Throughout my life I have been too attached to power and fame, and have been troubled by karmic obstacles and inner demons. I hope that the World-Honored One Tathagata will be moved and give me a chance to repent and start anew in my next life. Amitabha."
After chanting a Buddhist prayer, Darba breathed his last and died.
At the same time, strange phenomena occurred once again in the heavens and earth.
The once clear sky was suddenly struck by lightning and thunder, and a torrential downpour began in an instant.
Meanwhile, flash floods broke out in various parts of the central region, and countless villages were ravaged by the floods.
The strange celestial phenomena that caused the fall of the Great Emperor resulted in a large-scale natural disaster, which was destined to last for some time.
Upon witnessing the strange phenomenon in the heavens and earth within Yanhuang City, Xuan Hao Hongye's expression changed instantly, and he felt a vague unease in his heart.
"Could it be that Darba has perished? No, impossible, absolutely impossible!"

At the same time, Song Yanran successfully neutralized the Seven-Star Begonia poison by utilizing the properties of the Seven-Colored Insect Gu.
It's just that the toxins have just been eliminated, and it will take some time to recover before the body can regain its strength.
Shen Zhao then took the opportunity to reconnect the broken bones of the injured Azure Dragon.
After everything was done, Shen Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against the gatehouse to rest with his eyes closed.
After confirming that Qinglong and Zhuque were unharmed, Song Yanran instructed them to continue investigating the situation within Yanhuang City.
"Shen Zhao, thank you for your help. Leave the rest to me."
"What are you planning to do?"
Shen Zhao looked at Song Yanran and couldn't help but ask a question in return.
Song Yanran was taken aback and didn't know what to say for a moment.
This coup was premeditated and chilled her to the bone. Even if she fought her way back to the capital and reclaimed the throne, what difference would it make?
