Chapter 231 The Ruler of All Under Heaven
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze turned to Murong Hanchan.
But then Murong Hanchan smiled at Xiaoyao Lang and said, "My world is simply about traveling the world with one person, punishing evil and upholding justice. That's all."
Xiaoyao Lang was deeply grateful, for this thought was exactly what he had been thinking. However, he realized he was a fool for betraying Murong Hanchan's kindness, and he would spend the rest of his life atoning for his guilt. "Chan'er, for the rest of my life, to the ends of the earth, I will walk with you."
Seeing Murong Hanchan's resolute decision, Xiang Kui had no choice but to release the leaders of the Zhu family. Chu Xianzhi waved his hand, and two small-footed men brought Zhu Zixing over, "Master, should this person be released as well?"
Murong Hanchan had barely turned around, and before she could speak, Zhu Ziyue excitedly called out, "Eighth Brother!?" She then waved her hand, knocking back the two small-footed girls. "Eighth Brother, are you alright?"
Zhu Zixing stretched his stiff arms a few times. "I'm fine." Then, his gaze swept over the disheveled Zhu Zijian and his group, and he sighed, "It's just that the Zhu family's foundation is about to collapse."
Yu Linglong said in a clear voice, "For the sake of your Zhu family's foundation, you have abandoned the lives of countless people. Such selfish and unrestrained struggle is intolerable to Heaven! If it weren't for Han Chan's forgiveness today, your Zhu family would probably be doomed."
“Exactly! If it weren’t for the little girl’s kind heart, you would all have had to atone for the sins of those innocent people! You’ve gotten off easy!” Xiang Kui added angrily.
Yu Linglong's words "Han Chan" made Murong Han Chan's heart tremble: Since she called me that, if I don't let go of my prejudices, I'm afraid I'll seem too narrow-minded... Fine, I'll just not be her enemy from now on.
Faced with Yu Linglong's words, Zhu Ziyue remained silent. She had always opposed the Zhu family's tyrannical conquests, and she had long expected this outcome, but she simply couldn't let go of Zhu Zixing.
Xiaoyao Lang sighed, "Some people are insatiable, and the wars they cause have torn apart countless innocent people, causing families to be torn apart and lives to be lost. I have one right here beside me!" With that, his gaze fell on Yue Ruchu.
Yue Ruchu lowered her head sadly, and Xiaoyao Lang continued, "I know the suffering of war. Even if Han Chan did not do this, I, Xiaoyao Lang, will do my best to promote the unification of the five continents and bring peace to the world."
"What a spirit! The unification of the five continents is imminent. I'm sure that under Xue Huai Ren's rule, the golden age will be just as you wish!" Shen Qianying said.
Yu Kuangge also felt a pang of emotion, “We have lived in seclusion for many years, fearing to be tainted by worldly tribulations! For our own selfish desire to ascend to immortality, we have remained indifferent to the world’s strife for many years. Compared with Miss Murong today, I am truly ashamed. A hundred years of cultivating the mind has not been enough to attain enlightenment.”
Upon hearing this, Jian Wuji lowered his head in shame. Shao Ji Qianxue immediately said, "You all have the heart to save the world, but you are worried about your mortal bodies and fear that your lifelong hard work will be ruined. It is reasonable for you to avoid the calamity and escape. There is no need to blame yourselves."
Shao Ji Qianxue took two steps and glanced at everyone. "For the sake of future generations and to ensure that we have no more worries, our most urgent task is to break the seal on this world and welcome everyone to shed their physical bodies!"
Shen Qianying immediately said, "Senior is absolutely right! We have cultivated diligently and lived in seclusion for this very day! We are grateful to have you take the lead, Senior, and we will obey your command!"
"I second that!" Jian Wuji waved his hand and pointed.
Yu Kuangge swung his arm and waved his hand, and the twelve-foot-long silver spear in his hand vanished without a trace. "Count me in!"
Shao Ji Qianxue turned her gaze to Zhu Ziyue, who immediately stated, "As long as my family is safe and sound, I will comply!"
Shao Ji Qianxue was very satisfied, and then turned to Yu Linglong, who had been silent all along, "Your cultivation is the same as mine, and you have already transcended the mortal world. However, without breaking through this realm, it is difficult to inquire about the cause and effect of your past life. I suppose you have no objection?"
Upon hearing that Yu Linglong's cultivation had transcended the ordinary and reached the Immortal Realm, Shen Qianying, Zhu Ziyue, and the others were all secretly amazed.
Yu Linglong replied gently, "That's right. The reason I don't want to enter the world is to seek my past life, where there are very important people to me." After saying that, she glanced at Xiaoyao Lang.
"Good!" Shao Ji Qianxue turned around leisurely and said loudly, "Since everyone is of one mind! We have the right people! The right time is three days from now, at the hour of Si (9-11 AM), the Double Ninth Festival, when Yin and Yang are at their extremes, and the Azure Qi is gentle. The right place is the Thousand Peaks Cloud Sea, which will help us to form the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Gang Formation at that time."
At this point, Shao Ji Qianxue raised her eyes high, looked at the vast sky, and said in a deep voice, "The seal on this realm will surely be broken." Then she murmured to herself, "Dao Xuanling, I have waited too long for this eternal era! You must be waiting for me too, right?! Don't worry, we will meet soon!"
Jian Wuji said loudly, "In that case, we'll meet at Thousand Peaks Cloud Sea in three days!" He then turned to Yu Kuangge and said, "My friend, would you mind meeting at Lonely Tree Peak in these three days?"
"Of course! Even if you didn't say anything, I would still shamelessly come to you! After all, the solitary peaks and verdant summits of your place are truly captivating!" Yu Kuangge said, looking on with a look of endless relish.
Jian Wuji chuckled, "Ha! Just what I wanted!" He then bowed to the crowd, "Gentlemen, farewell!"
"Please!" Yu Kuangge bowed to the crowd, and then two streaks of light shot away.
Shen Qianying stepped forward and said, "The three-day deadline is approaching, and I also have many matters to attend to. I will take my leave now! Please, everyone." After speaking, a yellow light disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Zhu Ziyue turned to Xue Qingrou and said, "General Xue, please tell Lord Xue that I will take over as the head of Zhu Family Manor. From this day forward, Zhu Family Manor will be surrendered to Shanshui City and will no longer be involved in territorial disputes."
"This..." The matter was too sudden, and Xue Qingrou didn't know how to handle it. After all, this was a big deal. The Zhu family had always been ambitious, and they couldn't possibly submit to Zhu Ziyue just because of a few words.
Zhu Ziyue noticed Xue Qingrou's worry and immediately turned to Murong Hanchan, saying, "Sect Leader Murong, you are the victor in this battle. For the sake of long-term stability, you must have some considerations."
Murong Hanchan was also a clever person, and naturally understood what Zhu Ziyue was planning. She immediately said to the three reborn people, "Senior Reborn, Big Guy, Right Envoy Chu! Murong Hanchan has a favor to ask of you three."
"Master!" "Little girl!?" "Please speak, and I will do my utmost to make it happen."
Murong Hanchan's gaze swept over tens of thousands of soldiers. "For the sake of the people, no one but Xue Huai Ren can be the ruler! Considering that he can stabilize the country, I hereby issue the order as the leader of the Jade Goddess Sect. From now on, you will all serve him and obey his orders. Zhu Zongshen, Zhu Zixing, and Lü Zhong are to return to Shanshui City with General Xue to receive their titles. The rest of you shall remain where you are."
Xue Qingrou was secretly delighted: Excellent! With this, the Zhu Family Village and the Yongle Gang would no longer dare to act rashly, and Baiyun City would soon be stable. She then bowed respectfully and said, "Sect Leader Murong has considered everything very well; I will certainly live up to your expectations."
