When A Yao appeared, everyone opened their eyes and looked at her.
Lu Xiuwen stopped healing Xu Lianxin. Xu Lianxin opened her eyes, saw A Yao, stood up, and called out in a trembling voice:
"Xiao Qi..."
Ayao didn't look at her, nor at her father Lu Xiuwen; she flew towards Lu Yunshen. Seeing that she was safe and sound, Lu Yunshen breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Xiao Qi, is it over?"
Ayao nodded and said, "The Canglan Realm is no longer suitable for survival. You can take everyone into the Kongmeng Realm. The territory of the Demon Race will belong to all the beings of the Canglan Realm in the future."
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Does this mean all the demons in the Void Realm are dead? Did the Seventh Miss wipe out all the demons in the Void Realm? Good heavens!
Lu Yunshen stared at A Yao in shock, not knowing what to say for a moment.
With a wave of her hand, A Yao summoned a golden sword in front of Lu Yun Shen. The sword shimmered with golden light, sealing the Phoenix True Fire and A Yao's power. A Yao had also infused it with a trace of the primal power of metal, which came from the fragment of the Golden Spirit Sword that had sealed the boundary gate before.
After the gate was blown open, the trace of metallic essence did not disappear. Ayao found a fragment containing this trace of essence power.
She said:
“I know those guys who occupy the other half of the Void Realm are not to be trifled with. Your strongest are only at the Integration Stage, and they certainly won’t let you occupy the territory that the Demon Clan used to occupy. This sword has the power I left behind. If necessary, use it to reason with them.”
"I believe the power remaining in this sword is enough to resolve six major crises."
Lu Yunshen didn't reach for his sword. He looked at A Yao, a sense of unease creeping into his heart. He sensed from A Yao's tone that she intended to leave, and not only him, but everyone else did as well.
"Xiao Qi, you...you're leaving?" Lu Yun Shen's voice trembled.
Ayao looked at him without saying a word, then waved her hand again, and a storage bag appeared. She continued, "Also, take this storage bag."
This storage bag contains cultivation techniques, methods for repairing damaged foundations, alchemy techniques, and restrictive methods, etc. She has placed an ingenious restriction on this storage bag, which can only be opened by Lu Yun Shen and her father Lu Xiu Wen. Although she has no feelings for her father, she acknowledges Lu Xiu Wen's ability as a leader.
She turned the Canglan Realm into a dead realm, so she had to find a way out for the people of the Canglan Realm. The cultivators in the Tribulation Transcending and Mahayana stages of the Kongmeng Realm were not demons, so they wouldn't want to exterminate the people of the Canglan Realm, but it was hard to say to what extent they would go. The people of the Canglan Realm had to have enough ability to protect themselves.
After saying that, Ayao's body rose into the air and flew away into the distance.
Lu Yunshen wanted to persuade her to stay, but he recalled the past, the grievances Xiaoqi had suffered in the Lu family, and his weakness in not standing by her side every time. The regret and guilt made him swallow all his words of persuasion.
"Xiao Qi—"
Xu Lianxin suddenly screamed at the top of her lungs. Looking at her daughter's back, she had a thought in her mind: Xiao Qi is leaving and will never come back.
At that moment, her regret reached its peak, and tears streamed from her eyes.
She flew after him, and Lu Xiuwen followed.
In the sky, Ayao stopped.
Xu Lianxin and Lu Xiuwen also stopped in the sky. The couple looked at A Yao's back, their hearts filled with guilt and regret, especially Xu Lianxin. The thought of treating a beast like a treasure and cruelly mistreating her own daughter made her heart ache as if she were being slowly sliced to death.
She regretted it! She was filled with regret now. How could she have treated her own daughter like that?
That was her daughter, whom she had carried for ten months. She had once cherished her like a precious pearl, holding her in her hands for fear of dropping her or melting her. How could she have become so heartless and cruel? How could she have despised her and tormented her in various ways?
I was completely out of my mind back then.
She regretted it; she wanted to repent, apologize, and beg for A-Yao's forgiveness. At that moment, watching A-Yao's retreating figure, she kept shedding tears.
"Xiao Qi, Mother was wrong..."
After saying this, Xu Lianxin burst into tears.
Ayao's heart skipped a beat.
She gazed at the distant sky, her heart filled with complex emotions. She never imagined she would hear such an apology, from her own mother, but it was all too late.
Lu Xiuwen supported Xu Lianxin, feeling guilty as well. He spoke:
"Xiao Qi, your mother and your father..."
But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ayao.
With her back to her biological parents, Ayao whispered:
“I am not your Xiaoqi. Your daughter died when she was three years old.”
Upon hearing these words, Xu Lianxin and Lu Xiuwen felt as if a sharp sword had been plunged into their hearts, leaving them bleeding.
Ayao turned to look at them, her gaze calm, and said:
"My name is Feng Yao."
After speaking, A Yao transformed into a purple rainbow and sped away, disappearing into the horizon in an instant. She heard Xu Lianxin's voice calling out, a voice filled with regret, sorrow, and pain, but she did not turn back.
She is Feng Yao, and from now on, she is simply Feng Yao.
Before coming to the Lu family, she had already gone to the Nangong family and the Shenmeng Sect to tell the people of the Nangong family and the Shenmeng Sect the devastating news that Nangong Qi and Xu Fengzhi were no longer alive. She left life-saving items for Nangong Qi's parents and Xu Fengzhi's parents, as well as some cultivation techniques, pills, and powerful magic weapons to restore their foundations.
Now that she had no more worries, Ah Yao spread her phoenix wings and instantly flew thousands of miles away.

Five hundred years later.
Countless stars in the sky emitted light of various colors. A colossal starship was traversing this star field, carrying hundreds of thousands of beings. These beings came from the Great Thousand World, Middle Thousand World, and Lesser Thousand World of the myriad realms, as well as from cultivation planets in various star fields of the ancient stars.
Somewhere on the fifteenth floor of this starship, a girl dressed in purple was gazing at the starry sky through a transparent light shield.
The girl was veiled, so her face was not visible, but her figure was graceful, like a blooming purple orchid, and her temperament was outstanding.
This girl is none other than A Yao.
For the past five hundred years, A Yao has been suffering from the backlash of the Canglan Realm, so her cultivation level has not improved; she is currently at the late-stage Great Ascension Realm. Turning a small world into a dead realm is a karmic burden that is far too heavy for a Great Ascension Realm cultivator, hence the five hundred years of backlash she has endured.
Five hundred years of backlash is still considered mild; it's only because she has the insight of an Immortal Emperor that she's worthy of the title. Anyone else would have died long ago.
Ayao sighed, "In the end, it's still because my cultivation level is too low."
If she is already at the Celestial Immortal stage, why should she fear the backlash from a mere small world consciousness?
