True Fire Washes Away Sins
Annan Chi had spoken in advance, so the immortal soldiers did not dare to make a real move. Instead, Yunti's two swords mercilessly injured many of the immortal soldiers. This group of people was annoyed and no longer showed mercy. The overwhelming magic spells came down, and Yunti was overwhelmed to resist. After more than ten moves, she was knocked to the ground.
"Mother!" Yunti shed two lines of tears. No matter how she shouted, she could not keep Annanchi.
A long sword stabbed towards him while Yunti was distracted. Xian Youlin was fighting with others and couldn't pay attention to it. At the critical moment, Fang Jinghe appeared and held the sword tightly. He squeezed the sword hard and it broke with a sound. Xian Youlin breathed a sigh of relief.
Yunti woke up from her daze. She nervously held Fang Jinghe's bleeding hand and asked, "Why are you here?"
Fang Jinghe's lips were pale and he didn't look well. "I'm late." Fang Jinghe said weakly, "Fang Jiming has been trapping me until today when I finally had the chance to take advantage of him."
Yunti's voice trembled. She held Fang Jinghe's face and said with concern, "Why do you look so weak? Did Fang Jiming punish you?"
"It's okay." Fang Jinghe tried to comfort her, "Let's leave together first."
Fang Jinghe took out a small glass boat. He muttered a spell and the glass boat suddenly grew larger. Fang Jinghe shouted: "Xianyoulin!"
Xian Youlin understood it in her mind, and when the glass boat changed, a stream of spiritual energy shook away the immortal soldiers from all directions!
The four of them boarded the glass boat and disappeared on the spot...
After An Luoyi and the others left, Mu Qianyu single-handedly held off several masters. Although she was also a leader of her generation, she was still inferior to An Luoyi. She lacked strength but could outsmart them. She tried to avoid direct confrontation, using only the Soul Binding Silk to stall for time.
"Si Ming! Are you going to rebel too?"
"My Priest Hall is independent and you Elder Hall can't control me! Today, I will never let you hurt Xiaoyi again!"
"In that case, don't blame us for being ruthless."
The silk fluttered in the air as if dancing, but no one appreciated it. Seeing Fang Jiming was about to leave, Mu Qianyu separated a piece of white silk and tied him up tightly. Unexpectedly, the white silk was cut off by Fang Jiming's sword. Mu Qianyu used several pieces of white silk to temporarily repel the others who were chasing Fang Jiming.
"Stop!" Mu Qianyu said as she chased after Fang Jiming.
Fang Jiming was close at hand and was about to catch up with him. Suddenly, Mu Qianyu was attacked from behind. She vomited blood and fell into the clouds, but she stood up almost instinctively without any hesitation.
"The laws of heaven and earth, all things are doomed. Rise!" Mu Qianyu built a furnace with herself as the center and put everyone in it.
The orange transparent spiritual power formed the outer shell of the furnace, and what was burning inside was the Phoenix True Fire. The flames covered the surface of the inner shell of the furnace. As long as Mu Qianyu had a thought, it would ignite into a raging fire, burning everyone in the furnace to ashes.
Fang Jiming was trapped in the furnace and couldn't move forward. He turned around and shouted angrily, "Has the Great God of Destiny gone mad?"
"The Fire Separation Formation is a forbidden formation of the Priest's Temple! Once it is activated, it cannot be stopped. Anyone caught in the formation will either die or be injured, and you yourself, as the center of the formation, will be trapped here. You can actually use this kind of formation that will result in mutual destruction!" said the elder behind Mu Qianyu.
Mu Qianyu half-knelt on the ground after exhausting her spiritual power. A smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "Xiaoyi and I have known each other for twenty years. The love, love and friendship between us are things that you, who are self-disciplined and rule-abiding people, will never understand. If it was me who was in trouble today, I believe she would do the same..."
Mu Qianyu lay on the ground panting. She looked up at the sky and felt sad in her heart: "Xiaoyi, I'm sorry, I can't accompany you anymore."
The furnace was ablaze, and the burning sensation instantly spread! Fang Ji said anxiously, "Kill her to break the formation!"
The elders reacted instantly and joined forces to deal with Mu Qianyu. Mu Qianyu rolled over with her exhausted body, dodging their attacks: "It's useless! Even if you kill me, the Fire Separation Formation won't stop!"
The elders looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Fang Jiming said viciously, "Don't listen to her. She is the key to the formation. As long as she dies, the formation will naturally break!"
They thought about it and realized it was true, so they rushed forward again. Mu Qianyu stared at Fang Jiming intently. This man was really evil...
Mu Qianyu battled the others once again. The power of the Phoenix Fire could not be underestimated. They were already scorched to death, using most of their energy to protect themselves. Only Mu Qianyu fought recklessly, using all her spiritual power. Legend has it that the Phoenix Fire was a kind of fire left by the Minghuang, capable of burning away all sin. Now, neither of them had the upper hand in their clash. Mu Qianyu, not using her spiritual power to protect herself, was spared the burns.
When Annan arrived, she saw a scene of raging fire. She looked at the people in the furnace and knew they would all die if this continued. Although she was now considered a sinner of the White Phoenix Clan, she could not bear to watch her people slaughter each other. As for Mu Qianyu... Annan was very grateful that Luo Yi had made such a close friend. She decided to use her remaining life to fulfill her promise to the former Great God of Destiny!
Annan Chi was suspended in the air with his five fingers crossed in front of his chest to form a seal. A majestic seal was formed. Annan Chi flew towards the fire furnace with this seal. The two huge forces collided and exploded a ball of white light that pierced the immortal soldiers and made them unable to open their eyes.
When the light faded, Mu Qianyu, Fang Jiming, and the elders escaped the sea of fire. Mu Qianyu coughed up blood frantically, the blood mingling with the stained blood on her body. She had thought herself doomed… but unexpectedly, she had escaped death. She saw that An Nanchi wasn't as seriously injured as she had imagined. Could it be that the Immortal Lord had so easily broken the forbidden formation of the Priest Hall? An Nanchi had broken the formation in exchange for his own life, but in reality, she had already suffered a backlash, but she had suppressed it.
Before Mu Qianyu could figure it out, she heard An Nanchi say, "My father forcibly brought me back to seal my memories, leaving me like a walking corpse for the past twenty years. I resent him deeply. Now, as a mother, I don't want to follow in his footsteps. I don't think I'm guilty, but you say I am guilty. If I am guilty, then I have no way to defend myself. I just don't want my daughters to bear the infamy! We in the Phoenix Clan have an ancient saying that if you are willing to wash yourself with true fire, all guilt can be eliminated. I am willing to accept this punishment!"
"What!"
Everyone was shocked, even Mu Qianyu stood there in amazement.
"No!" Mu Qianyu said sadly, "Master Immortal, you absolutely cannot do this. The True Fire will wash your body and scatter your soul! What will happen to Xiaoyi and Yunti if you die?"
An Nanchi suppressed the tears welling up in her heart: "Luo Yi is already capable of standing on her own, and with you by her side, I am relieved to leave this fairyland to you. As for Yunti, you must ask Luo Yi to take good care of her for me... I have let her down in this life!"
"No...no..." Mu Qianyu shook her head and cried bitterly, "You should take care of them yourself."
"You're a good child, and I've fulfilled my promise to your master. From now on, you don't have to worry about danger anymore. Live your life well." An Nanqi instructed with deep sorrow, "I know Luo Yi and the Nether King have feelings for each other, but you must tell her how horrible things are. Don't let her repeat my fate..."
Mu Qianyu's eyes turned panicky, and her words were intermittent: "What...what agreement? I...my master...what did he do!"
An Nanchi did not respond, but only murmured, "Causes arise, causes arise, causes cease, causes cease."
"Let's go!" Annan said to the people in the immortal world, "After I am baptized by the true fire, I will still be the immortal master of the immortal world! Fang Jiming covets the position of immortal master and stirs up trouble for no reason, harboring evil intentions. I order that his status as immortal king be stripped away and he be sent into reincarnation, never to be allowed to become an immortal again!"
Fang Jiming shouted anxiously: "What right do you have to convict me? I refuse to accept the charge! I am the God of War in the Immortal Realm. You cannot punish me so easily!"
An Nanchi shouted fiercely: "Just because I am the Immortal Lord!"
The elders were all worried, but they heard An Nanchi say, "The elders were deceived and will not pursue the matter. However, after my death, An Luoyi will ascend to the throne of the Immortal Lord, and his sister Yunti will be worshipped as the Saint!"
With this, the elders were reassured. All the White Phoenix people knelt and obeyed the order. Only Fang Jiming was dissatisfied and wanted to resist. An Nanchi restrained him and ordered him to be brought to justice immediately! She herself went to the altar to be baptized by the true fire, and everyone followed to bear witness.
After the crowd dispersed, Mu Qianyu was still sitting there in a daze, holding in her hand the "birth phoenix feather" left by An Nanchi before he left.
Fang Jinghe used a glass magic weapon to take Yunti and the other two away. They settled down in an abandoned house and found that the immortal soldiers and generals had not caught up with them, so the four of them planned to rest for a while.
Xian Youlin held An Luoyi in his arms without saying a word, while continuously supplying her with spiritual power. Yunti knelt on a pile of weeds and stared at his sister. Fang Jinghe lit a fire to make the hut brighter. The three of them seemed to have their own thoughts and no one spoke.
Suddenly, An Luoyi's brows wrinkled and she looked very uncomfortable. She unconsciously hugged her arms and bent her legs, "Mother..." An Luoyi muttered uneasily.
An Luoyi was now twisting around like a wounded little animal. Xian Youlin held her in his arms, hoping to give her a sense of security. An Luoyi felt the warmth and indeed did not move, but she did not let go of her arms.
"Sister..." Yunti felt utterly distressed. His sister was unconscious, and his mother's condition was unknown. He had clearly transformed from his previous human self, yet he still felt powerless and unable to do anything.
This was the first time Fang Jinghe had spoken so little, still lost in his own world. Yunti noticed something was wrong with him and asked, "Jinghe, do you know that I was captured by Fang Jiming?"
"I want to save you..." Fang Jinghe agreed. He did notice it, but before he could go to rescue Fang Jiming, he took the initiative to find him.
Fang Jinghe had already figured out Fang Xian Mansion thoroughly, and even with double the guards, Fang Jinghe still found a chance to slip out. Just as he was about to leave the mansion, he saw Fang Jiming coming back.
Fang Jiming took off his battle robe and handed it to the immortal servant beside him and asked, "How is she?"
The immortal servant replied respectfully, "Miss Yun is still unconscious."
"Yes." Fang Jiming nodded in understanding, "Add one more hour of hypnosis time every day to ensure that there will be no mistakes."
"Yes..." The immortal servant took the order and retreated consciously.
Fang Jinghe's heart skipped a beat when he heard the word "cloud." He secretly followed Fang Jiming, hoping to find out what was going on. Fang Jiming took many winding paths, cautiously looking back halfway. Fearing discovery, Fang Jinghe hid behind a large rock. Seeing no one around, Fang Jiming continued forward. Fang Jinghe patted his chest and sighed. When he emerged from behind the rock, he realized his father was gone.
This is a back garden with lush trees and beautiful flowers. Fang Jinghe was spinning in circles, unable to guess where Fang Jiming had gone. He walked forward a few steps but couldn't find any fruit, so he planned to leave quietly. Just as he turned around, Fang Jiming appeared behind him!
Fang Jinghe was startled and shouted guiltily, "Father."
Fang Jiming's brow darkened: "Humph, I underestimated you!"
"Father, who is the Miss Yun you mentioned just now?" Since he had been discovered anyway, Fang Jinghe simply asked directly.
Fang Jiming didn't give him a good look: "It's not your turn to meddle in my affairs."
Fang Jinghe had a strong premonition: "Is it a ladder?"
Fang Jiming was touched, "How dare you! You are a criminal and yet you dare to question my father!"
"As expected!" Fang Jinghe knew what he was thinking when he saw his reaction. "Why did you arrest her?"
"It seems that you really don't know your place. Considering that you are my only flesh and blood, I have always had feelings for you. Since you want to know so much, I will tell you!" Fang Jiming had a plan in his mind. It didn't matter if he knew it. After all, Fang Jinghe would inherit his position in the future. "The fairy world is about to change... Twenty years ago, as a student of the former fairy lord, I had an engagement with An Nanchi. As long as we got married, the position of fairy lord would be within our grasp! But Chong Sheng showed up halfway and got entangled with her. The former fairy lord thought he had concealed the truth, but he missed someone close to him, me! Now that the opportunity has finally come, how can I not expose An Nanchi's false mask? I want everyone to know that she, An Nanchi, is not worthy of the position of fairy lord at all. Yunti is the best witness of her crime!"
"What!" Fang Jinghe's eyes widened. He had never thought his father would have such thoughts. "But how did you know her?"
"Hehe." Fang Jiming suddenly smiled sinisterly, "This is all thanks to you! It was you who made me discover An Luoyi's abnormality! If it weren't for you, how could I have successfully inserted my spies into Chaoyun Palace? And your eyes are my eyes! Everything I see is an image!"
"You actually cast a puppet spell on me!" Fang Jinghe shouted angrily in extreme disappointment. "You said I was your own flesh and blood and that you still had feelings for me, but you're just using me as a tool because you're afraid there won't be anyone to succeed you! Stop lying to me with your hypocrisy. Today I realize that you're not only cold-hearted but also despicable and shameless!"
"Bastard!" Fang Jiming slapped him with all his strength.
Fang Jinghe tilted his head, his face swollen. He held back his tears and laughed at himself, "Oh, I went from longing for your love to leaving home in despair. You said I was unambitious and idle, and I just wanted to get your attention. Now I realize that we don't have the same thoughts at all. You will never know what I want!"
"What did you say..." Fang Jiming seemed to be in deep thought, but just as once the arrow is shot, it is impossible to retrieve it, he has come this far and there is no way he will give up!
Fang Jinghe steeled his heart and said word by word, "You are not worthy to be my father, and I am not worthy to be your son. From now on, whether I live or die, you don't have to worry about me. I will go my way, and you go your way!"
Fang Jinghe's words made Fang Jiming laugh like a child's playful joke, but he didn't take it seriously. "I think you've gone crazy! Come on! Take the young master down there and let him suck his spiritual energy with the Spirit Devouring Insects every day. See if he still starts talking nonsense."
Soul Devouring Insects feed on spiritual energy and love to devour it. Xuewei's soul seal cannot last long. Fang Jiming thought of using this to deal with Fang Jinghe because he was afraid that he would come out again and cause trouble. Unexpectedly, Fang Jinghe did not resist when he was taken away this time. He was completely lifeless, as if he had lost all hope...
