Fall asleep again
The monster's attack suddenly weakened, but the monks still stayed by the barrier, not daring to be careless.
Hua Fangyi put away her sword and looked at Rong Si: "Alliance leader, please open the barrier and let me go out to check."
Rong Si didn't dare to let her go out alone. He looked at Canghe with a vague look.
Cang He came over: "What's wrong?"
Rong Si was as if granted amnesty: "Ahem, um, Fangyi said she wanted to go out and check it out, right? Go discuss it with your senior brother."
What a joke. Last time he asked her to help suppress the demon tower, she was poisoned. Cang He and Wan Wuji almost demolished his study. How could he dare to let Hua Fangyi go out by herself?
Hua Fangyi pinched her earlobe, apparently recalling the glorious deeds of her two senior brothers.
"...You are not allowed to go." Cang He glanced at her and stepped forward. "I will go."
"...Oh." Hua Fangyi didn't dare to resist and could only go back to guard the barrier obediently.
As Cang He left the barrier, the monsters rushed towards him and tried to attack him. But with just one strike of his sword, the monsters fell to the ground.
Canghe noticed something was wrong. The strength of these monsters seemed to have weakened.
When Tiandao brought Qiu Ji into the ancient secret realm, Rong Si informed him. The demon beasts were weak, did this mean that Tiandao had the upper hand among them?
His heart was beating violently, and the sky in the distance was faintly flickering with golden light.
The sun is coming out.
————
"Qiu Ji." Tiandao panted, with several new wounds on his body, "You lost."
Qiu Ji lay on the ground, unable to straighten himself. His body was covered in wounds pierced by the Heavenly Dao, and blood oozed out continuously.
He glanced at Tiandao, but still smiled.
"You lose."
The Soul-Eating Nightmare appeared out of nowhere, turned into black smoke and drilled into Qiu Ji's body.
Many years ago, it was Qiu Ji's right-hand man, standing behind him until his death. Many years later, it stood beside Qiu Ji again, sacrificing its last bit of strength to him.
Qiu Ji stood up, holding the spear, his face covered in blood and sweat, looking very embarrassed.
Tiandao was nearly exhausted, barely holding on to the battle. He clenched his palms, concentrating all his strength, transforming it into a long sword.
With the final blow, He pierced Qiu Ji's heart.
Qiu Ji fell down again, and Tiandao could no longer hold on and fell to his knees.
Qiu Ji seemed unable to believe that he had truly lost. He raised his hand tremblingly and touched his heart, but only felt boiling blood.
It hurts so much, He thought.
He looked up at the sky and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't even have the strength to speak.
He just looked at the sky and died completely.
Tiandao regained some strength and dragged himself to Qiu Ji's side to confirm that he was really dead.
He looked at his face, not even wanting to sigh, but simply raised his hand and pulled out his already broken soul.
He grasped that wisp of soul in his palm. He exerted force on his hand, and Qiu Ji's soul was shattered.
He lay on the ground, looked at the sky, and finally closed his eyes tiredly.
it's over.
————
Cang He returned to the barrier and only instructed the monks to guard the barrier well. No one could relax until the end was known.
After an unknown amount of time, a monk exclaimed, "Look!"
Ling Qingqiu and Cang He looked over at the sound. The monsters had stopped attacking and even began to retreat.
They are retreating.
The devil was defeated.
Cheers erupted from the crowd. Lin Numa rubbed the head of the child beside her, looked up towards the east, and the boy beside her was holding her hand.
The sun rises and a new day begins.
A louder exclamation was heard, and You Jingjia looked at the scene in surprise.
The bloodstains on the ground gradually faded away, and the plants on the ground seemed to have more vitality. She could feel that the spiritual energy was more abundant.
Cang He absorbed a trace of spiritual energy and lowered his eyes.
Today is the beginning of winter, and this is the first sunrise of this winter.

After seeing off the last group of people, a pair of hands reached out from behind Lin Zhuo and hugged her in his arms.
She has been desensitized by Xie Zhitiao these days.
The first time he hugged her from behind, she elbowed him back. Xie Zhitiao finally found a reason to play tricks on her and pestered her for a long time.
That man not only hugged her, but also had to rub against her, acting like a spoiled child all day long: "Senior Sister, why do you smell so good? I love you so much."
Lin Zhuo was most happy to coax him and took the initiative to hold his hand: "You smell good too, I like you too."
Xie Zhitiao had a smile on his lips. When he saw someone coming over, he let go of her hand.
"Zhao Zhao, A Tiao, have they sent everyone away?" Ling Qingqiu asked.
"Yes." Lin Zhuo nodded, "Where is Master? I need to see him for something."
Ling Qingqiu pointed her in the direction and was about to pull Xie Zhitiao away, but the man had already happily followed Lin Zhuo, completely ignoring his calls.
Ling Qingqiu:......
Lin Zhuo has something important to do when he comes to find Canghe. Tiandao and the devil are fighting. Since the devil has fallen, where is Tiandao now?
Canghe guessed her purpose and did not rush to explain to her. Instead, he took her and Xie Zhitiao on another tour around the area.
Finally, he stopped and looked back at the two of them.
"What do you want to ask?"
Lin Zhuo pondered for a moment and then asked, "Master, do you know where the Heavenly Dao is?"
"He and the Demon God went to the Ancient Secret Realm. After the war ended and the Demon God fell, the spiritual energy of the four realms became more abundant. This is the spiritual power from the Ancient Secret Realm."
He didn't want to say much, just enough. He saw Lin Nuo's pupils gradually dilate, and he seemed a little shocked.
Lin Zhuo just thought that it was the will of heaven that made the spiritual energy more abundant in order to repair the four realms. She didn't expect it to be the spiritual power of the ancient secret realm.
The Heavenly Dao did not use its own power. Does that mean it simply has no energy left to repair the world?
She didn't dare to think about it too much, and hurriedly said goodbye to Canghe and left with Xie Zhitiao.
"Are we going to the Divine Realm, Senior Sister?" Xie Zhitiao followed her.
"Well, I want to go and see it."
"No need to go."
Lin Zhuo stopped and looked at him with some confusion.
"The ancient secret realm has disappeared, spiritual power has been used to repair the world, and the Heavenly Dao has fallen into sleep again." He looked at her and said softly.
Lin Zhuo was stunned. Heavenly Dao, fell asleep again?
With the fall of the Demon God, the four realms are no longer in danger of destruction, and they will not repeat the mistakes of their previous lives.
However, she still felt empty inside.
Noticing her distraction, Xie Zhitiao leaned over slightly and held her face: "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Lin Zhuo looked at him with watery eyes.
Xie Zhitiao couldn't help himself and leaned over to kiss her lips which were pouting because of his pinch.
After one kiss, she wanted to kiss him again, and he was about to continue, but Lin Zhuo turned her face away and his kiss landed on the side of her face.
"Don't kiss me anymore." Lin Zhuo muttered.
She felt that she had spoiled him a little too much, causing him to touch her anytime and anywhere.
Xie Zhitiao thought she was so cute, so he hugged her and put his face against hers: "Okay."
The two of them just hugged each other quietly.
"Sister, don't be disappointed." Xie Zhitiao suddenly said, "Everything is for the best. The Heavenly Dao is asleep, but the four realms are at peace, and the seas and rivers are clear. It's only a matter of time before He wakes up again."
Lin Zhuo was silent for a long time, then suddenly pulled away and looked at him seriously: "Let's go to the Divine Realm again."
Xie Zhitiao blinked slowly: "...Okay."
————
The divine realm was different from the ice and snow they had come here last time. The ground was covered with dense weeds, which made a "creaking" sound when they stepped on them.
The vines wrapped around Lin Zhuo's clothes, pulling her back and preventing her from moving forward. Lin Zhuo stopped and looked down at the vines.
She twirled her fingers, and spiritual power surged out. The vine twisted around on its own, but finally let go of her.
A sigh came from somewhere, like a man but not a man, like a woman but not a woman.
"Okay, now that you're here, come in."
The gate of the shrine appeared in front of the two of them. Lin Numa raised his hand and pushed the door open.
It was just like the shrine she saw in her dream, with a hollow roof, phoenix trees reaching into the sky, and phoenixes perched on the trees.
She scanned the murals on the corridor scene by scene, stopping at the last one.
The battle between Heaven and Demon.
Xie Zhitiao followed behind her, neither urging her nor lagging behind, but just silently holding her slightly cold hand.
Tiandao reclined on the throne in the hall, eyes closed, breathing evenly. Even when the two entered, he did not open his eyes.
After a long silence, Tiandao spoke first: "What do you want from me?"
"Are you okay?" Lin Zhuo looked up at Him, frowning slightly.
"Not bad." Tian Dao said with all his strength, "Is this the reason you came here to ask?"
Lin Zhuo pursed her lips, her fingers tightening slightly. Xie Zhitiao still held her hand, squeezing it soothingly.
Tiandao sat up, opened his eyes, looked at Xie Zhitiao and bowed: "Get out."
Xie Zhitiao: ...?
Although he was puzzled, he still let go of Lin Zhuo's hand, turned around and walked out, looking back every step.
After he walked out, Tiandao waved to Lin Zhuo: "Come here."
Lin Zhuo walked forward and squatted beside Tian Dao. She didn't know why, but when she saw Him waving, she wanted to do the same.
Tiandao leaned back on his seat again, saying lazily, "I came back not for you, but for the common people."
"It's just that you happen to be the key to my defeat of Qiu Ji. You don't have to be upset about it."
Ever since she learned about her master's rebirth, Lin Zhuo has always felt oppressed. She feels that this is unnecessary.
No one was worth another's life, and she wasn't worth their lives in exchange for a new life.
She kept it in her heart, didn't tell anyone, and didn't know who to tell. Hearing Tiandao's words, Lin Zhuo was stunned at first, and then a little dazed.
Yes, why bother about it so much? Rebirth is a fact. So, just live your life well.
Tiandao closed his eyes again: "Go back, I want to take a nap."
"How long do you want to sleep this time?" Lin Zhuo asked subconsciously.
Tiandao didn't even bat an eyelid, just raised his hand and pushed Lin Zhuo out the door.
"Maybe a few days, maybe a few years."
The door of the shrine closed, and the two appeared in the empty land. The surroundings were no longer covered with green grass and red flowers, but were replaced by a barren land.
"Go back and don't come again."
Finally, Lin Zhuo and Xie Zhitiao heard these words. They instantly understood that the divine realm had been sealed again.
Afraid that Lin Zhuo would suppress her emotions again, Xie Zhitiao bent down and approached her, gently kissing her cheek:
"Let's go back?"
Lin Zhuo tilted his head to look at him and suddenly laughed.
She stood on tiptoe and took the initiative to kiss the corner of the boy's lips, sucking tenderly. Xie Zhitiao's pupils shrank and he held her waist tightly.
He closed his eyes and indulged in Lin Zhuo's initiative.
At the end, the two were panting and their foreheads were pressed together.
Xie Zhitiao's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles. He raised his hand to wipe the water off Lin Zhuo's lips and asked her in a low voice: "Why are you so proactive?"
Lin Zhuo leaned into his arms, hugged his neck, and whispered softly:
"Xie Zhitiao, I like you so much."
…
"Senior Sister, let's get married."
