Mu Qiuyao gritted her teeth, ignoring her injuries, and with a death wish, was about to take her opponent down with her...
A pair of warm hands pressed down on her delicate shoulders.
The next moment, she was pulled into a familiar warm current by a masculine chest.
For a moment, Mu Qiuyao heard the long-lost sound of a heartbeat.
"Ah, you?"
Upon witnessing this scene, Yuan Huo was instantly horrified.
But by then it was too late for him to stop.
"Five Thunder Transformation Technique!"
The moment their palms met, Yuan Huo felt as if his internal organs had been struck by an electric current, and in an instant, he felt most of his internal strength dissipate.
Before he could react, a dragon's roar from the heavens, carrying the most powerful Buddhist chants, sent Yuan Huo flying.
The Azure God was greatly alarmed and quickly retreated ten feet away.
Yuan Huo landed on his knees, looking in Mu Qiuyao's direction with a look of extreme fear.
"Chen Zhao! It's the Heavenly Dragon Roar! Ah—"
boom--
With a long, painful howl, Yuan Huo's body was instantly blasted into dust.
Upon seeing this, Cang Shen was already drenched in sweat. He wanted to run, but his legs seemed to be frozen in place, and he couldn't move an inch.
Amidst the ruins, Shen Zhao swiftly resolved the Yuan Huo, then looked down at Mu Qiuyao, whose head was bound with mourning cloth, and his expression became extremely complex.
"Kid, are you really... alright... or... have I already reached the Yellow Springs? But... no matter what... being with you... I'm content..."
After saying that, Mu Qiuyao, whose body had reached its limit, could no longer bear it and fainted in Shen Zhao's arms.
"well--"
Shen Zhao sighed, wrapped her injured body in his cloak, and carried her on his back.
"You're next."
"ah?"
As Cang Shen exclaimed in surprise and confusion, a vast power gathered from all directions into his body.
In an instant, he felt his cultivation level rapidly increasing at a visible speed, and the injuries he had suffered from Mu Qiuyao were quickly restored.
"Hahahaha, is this the power of a peak Emperor? Hahahaha~"
At that moment, he felt an unprecedented sense of confidence, and when he looked at Shen Zhao again, his eyes were filled with contempt and disdain.
"Shen Zhao! Even if you are brought back from the dead, what good will it do? Today, you will still not escape death!"
Unexpectedly, Shen Zhao sighed softly, shook his head, and said, "Have a safe journey, you fool."
The Azure God asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"
Shen Zhao didn't reply to him and carried Mu Qiuyao out of the ruins.
"You're just playing tricks..."
Suddenly, Cang Shen felt a surge of electricity coursing through his body, and his cultivation, which was originally close to the peak of the Great Emperor, was rapidly reversed and surged.
"What...what's going on?"
"ah--"
The moment his cultivation level plummeted to the peak of Quasi-Emperor, his meridians ruptured throughout his body, and green blood splattered across an entire street.
In the end, he was blown to pieces, his internal organs shattered, and he turned into a charred corpse.
