This was the first time Ah Yao had ever seen the Creation Lotus in person. Was this what it looked like?
The original owner of the Genesis Lotus was Jingxin Wuchen, who was then devoured by Lou Munan, making Lou Munan the new owner of the Genesis Lotus. However, Luo Bai, as an avatar of Jingxin Wuchen, is also the owner of the Genesis Lotus. The Genesis Lotus just made a choice between Lou Munan and Luo Bai, choosing Luo Bai.
"No--"
Lou Munan roared, though the roar seemed to come from him; it was actually Jingxin Wuchen who made it. Because when the Creation Lotus chose Luo Bai, it abandoned Lou Munan along with him.
If the Creation Lotus remains rooted in Lou Munan's primordial spirit, then no matter how long it entangles and fights with Lou Munan, the consciousness that ultimately triumphs will definitely be Jingxin Wuchen.
He is currently being suppressed by Lou Munan because A Yao seriously injured him.
Among Yan Tang, Lou Munan, and Jingxin Wuchen, Yan Tang is undoubtedly the strongest in terms of combat power. Lou Munan is immortal, and Jingxin Wuchen is difficult to kill and troublesome.
Of the three, he was the only one who never died.
Luo Bai held the Lotus of Creation, and the mark of the Celestial Race appeared on his forehead. Behind him, a colossal Dharma image of the Celestial Race appeared. The Celestial, whose body was a million feet tall, stood in the starry sky. The Celestial, dressed in white robes, with white hair and white eyebrows, was extremely handsome. His robes fluttered, making him incomparably elegant and holy.
A colossal halo hovered behind the celestial being, and ethereal chants echoed through the universe. For some unknown reason, the power of Mirror Heart Without Dust was surging wildly towards Luo Bai, threatening to replace the original body with a clone, or even reverse the roles of the original and the clone.
"Luo Bai—"
Enraged, Jingxin Wuchen seized control of the body, never expecting his backup clone to betray him. Normally, in case of an accident, he could have resurrected directly in Luo Bai's body, but now only his cultivation had been transferred there.
In the end, ninety percent of his cultivation was absorbed by Luo Bai's clone, while his consciousness was suppressed by Lou Munan and devoured by Lou Munan.
Lou Munan regained control of his body.
However, since the Genesis Lotus is no longer in his body, killing him again would not immediately revive Lou Munan.
Lou Munan acted decisively, immediately concentrating all his remaining power on the Lifeless Sword. With a swing of the Lifeless Sword, terrifying sword energy surged and raged across the starry sky, tearing it apart and shattering countless stars into dust. This sword strike seemed to sever both time and space.
A Yao and Luo Bai's expressions changed, and they retreated rapidly.
At that moment, Lou Munan tore through space and tried to escape.
"stop--"
When Ayao saw that he was trying to escape, she was not about to let him get away so easily.
The Samsara Bead in her hand burst forth with a dazzling light, as she tried to freeze Lou Munan in place. Lou Munan's figure did indeed pause slightly.
Luo Bai waved the Lotus of Creation in his hand, and its holy light swept across Lou Munan. Lou Munan's body trembled, his physical body exploded, and his primordial spirit weakened, but he still managed to escape.
When the starry sky calmed down, Lou Munan had vanished without a trace. Ayao could not sense any trace of him. The Reincarnation Bead shot out strands of causal threads, trying to find Lou Munan's location by relying on the causal entanglement between herself and Lou Munan, but she failed.
"It seems he really did manage to escape," Luo Bai said calmly.
Ayao looked at him with a solemn expression and sharp eyes.
"Ayao, why are you looking at me like that?" Luo Bai asked.
"I'm wondering, are you friend or foe?" Ayao said.
"How could I possibly be your enemy?" Luo Bai said helplessly.
“You haven’t shown your face since the start of the great war. We were fighting to the death, and I was just about to seal Lou Munan when you suddenly appeared and came to reap the benefits. As soon as you showed up, you took the Creation Lotus and ambushed your own true form.”
"You obtained the Creation Lotus, one of the three innate treasures, transformed from an avatar into your true form, and gained most of Mirror Heart Without Dust's cultivation. In this calamity, besides you, who else could have gained such a great deal?" A Yao said. The more she thought about it, the more terrifying Luo Bai seemed. In this calamity, he might have schemed against everyone.
Luo Bai looked at her and sighed, "I had no choice. As Jingxin Wuchen's clone, I could only obey his orders before. But that doesn't mean I agree with him. I said that you are the only one I care about the most, and I mean it. He has all sorts of terrible thoughts about you."
"How could I let him succeed? To plot against him would have been a huge risk for me."
Ayao looked at Luo Bai's face, as if trying to determine whether he was telling the truth.
"If you don't believe me, you can just kill me with your sword." Luo Bai put away the Creation Lotus, spread his arms, and looked as if he was leaving A Yao to do whatever she wanted with him.
Ayao turned her head, left him behind, and flew off in one direction.
Feng Wu and the others have finished their battles in the Demon Realm; they have all defeated their respective opponents. A Yao is going to reunite with her master and the Phoenix Clan members.
The catastrophe started by Lou Munan has come to an end, but Lou Munan is not dead.
Ayao knew he would come back again.
The battle between her and him is not over yet.
————
Several months later.
The palace is magnificent and beautiful, with phoenix totems depicted everywhere.
In a palace corridor, several phoenix maids led the way. Behind them were a young man in white and a young woman in a light green dress. The young man was arrogant and nonchalant, while the young woman was timid and pitiful, appearing fragile and vulnerable.
This was Yan Rong's first time visiting the Phoenix Palace. She was filled with a mixture of excitement and complex emotions, for she was about to meet her aunt, Feng Yao, the young emperor of the Phoenix Clan and the most powerful immortal emperor in all the realms. She still found it hard to believe that her grand-uncle had been defeated; he had actually been defeated by Feng Yao.
Good heavens, how could my grandmaster uncle possibly lose?
She couldn't believe it; it took her several days to accept this. Even more unacceptable to her than the fact that her grandmaster was defeated was that it was Feng Yao who had defeated him. She had always considered this aunt, whom she had never met, as her imagined enemy.
Her mother was determined to defeat Feng Yao. Although she hated her mother, she shared the same view of Feng Yao: she was just lucky.
Now that Feng Yao has become the strongest Immortal Emperor in all the heavens and myriad realms, while she is not even an immortal, she feels very unbalanced.
Although she felt resentful, she still begged Feng Chu to take her to see Feng Yao. Wasn't Feng Yao her aunt? Then it was only right that she took care of her niece. She had been refined into a Nascent Soul by her own mother before she was even born. In the end, Feng Yao also bore some responsibility. If she hadn't pushed her so hard, how could her foolish mother have been so cruel as to refine even her own daughter?
Yes, it's Feng Yao who owes her.
Feng Yao should make it up to her.
Yan Rong believed that Feng Yao had to make amends to her.
