The battle had barely begun when Empress Lingyao had chosen to forfeit, dying to Ye Xingchen's halberd.
"...."
The cultivators were all depressed.
In the first round, Jun Changxiao had surrendered.
In the second round, Empress Lingyao had given up her life.
How could they watch the battle in peace?
Fake matches! Refund tickets!
"It's over!"
Zhenren Tonggu's heart leapt to his throat.
His disciple had been killed.
Perfected Qing Wei must be furious!
But when he looked over, he saw her calm expression. She sighed and turned to leave with tears in her eyes.
"She left just like that?"
Zhenren Tonggu said incredulously.
Her master, Perfected Qing Wei, would be furious at Empress Lingyao's death.
But as a witness, she had seen clearly that her disciple had wanted to die. How could she blame an outsider?
Being killed and dying were two different concepts.
"Master."
Far away from Zangye Mountain, the stooped elder looked up at the sky, tears streaming down his face. "You're finally free!"
Empress Lingyao's death did not sadden Jun Changxiao or the Sect of All Times. Because she had killed Ye Xingchen, it was only natural that she would be killed today.
Debts must be repaid.
A life for a life.
That was an unchanging principle.
However, Ye Xingchen held the halberd in his hand and looked at the lifeless corpse. His expression was blank and dazed.
Don't get me wrong.
He wasn't regretting it.
He hadn't expected to kill this woman so easily.
Since his rebirth, Ye Xingchen had been cultivating and growing stronger, all for the sake of killing Empress Lingyao. He had even imagined a fierce battle with her, but in the end … he had given up on resisting, and had even gone so far as to throw his life away.
This wasn't what he wanted, because it was too simple! It was too boring!
"Puchi!"
Ye Xingchen pulled out his halberd.
Empress Lingyao floated down like a withered flower, her beautiful face showing a sense of relief.
"Whoosh!"
A ball of flame flew over and enveloped the corpse.
Ye Xingchen was afraid that this woman would use some method to fake her death, so he had to burn her bones and scatter her ashes to cut off any chance of clearing her name in the future.
It was only after Empress Ling Yao's body had been incinerated that he put away his weapon and landed on Zangye Mountain. The hatred that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time had completely dissipated. He felt more refreshed than before and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.
Night Emperor.
He actually smiled!
"The knot in his heart has been untied, and the demon in his heart has been removed," Jun Changxiao said in a gratified manner. "Xing Chen will have greater achievements in the future."
If these words came out of other people's mouths, they would probably need to think about it carefully. But if these words came out of the mouth of a cheat, they definitely had a bright future ahead of them.
…
The grudge between Ye Xingchen and Empress Ling Yao had come to a perfect end today. As for whether there were any hidden secrets in the matter, since Ye Xingchen was determined to die, there was no way to find out.
However …
The woman was right about one thing.
She had once gone to the grotto to cultivate in seclusion just to fight with Ye Xingchen, but in the end, she had barely broken through to the Truth Seeking Realm. In two years, Ye Xingchen had already entered the upper Truth Seeking Realm. The difference between their realms was huge.
Perhaps it was because of this that Empress Ling Yao had decisively chosen to end it with her death after a short fight.
In the place where Xing Chen fell, Ye Xingchen did not fall.
On Zangye Mountain, Ye Xingchen did not die.
All the grudges, all the ill-fated relationships, were gone today.
"Phew!"
After walking down from the mountain, Ye Xingchen took a deep breath and looked up at the sky. He thought to himself, "Now I am no longer obsessed with hatred. I only want to pursue higher martial arts realms and protect my fellow disciples and sect from being bullied!"
Empress Ling Yao's death did not make him lose his motivation, because there were more precious things in this world that were far above hatred, such as kinship and friendship among fellow disciples. The only thing missing was … love between a man and a woman.
…
"Master."
Xi Jingxuan lowered her head and said with a red face, "I have something to say to Jun Patriarch."
With the help of the healing pill, her injuries had recovered significantly.
"Go."
Gu Hong Zhenren said kindly.
He could tell that there was a story between his disciple and Jun Changxiao, so he naturally would not urge her to leave with him.
"Humph."
Zhenren Tonggu, who was standing aside, said grumpily, "If my disciple didn't give in to your disciple, you wouldn't have won."
Gu Hong Zhenren said indifferently, "A loss is a loss. Don't make excuses!"
"Bullshit!"
Zhenren Tonggu said, "This is not a loss. She gave in!"
"It seems that you are not convinced. Come on, why don't the two of us fight?"
"Afraid of you?"
The two old men who did not see eye to eye at all became angry after a few words. Then, they drew a path and fought on Zangye Mountain.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom!
Powerful energy exploded, and the scene was magnificent.
However, no matter how exciting the fight was, the camera was still locked on Jun Changxiao and Xi Jingxuan, sadly reduced to the background.
"Palace Master Xi."
Gou Sheng asked curiously, "How are you the Child of the Dimension?"
Xi Jingxuan sat down and kept her head down. It was obvious that she was a little nervous and shy. She said, "Master said that I have the Power of Origin in my body."
"The Power of Origin?"
Jun Changxiao said in surprise, "The attribute that made you lose your mind?"
"Yes."
Xi Jingxuan said, "This power comes from the Origin of the Dimension. The possessor is the Child of the Dimension."
"I didn't expect Palace Master Xi to be the Child of the Dimension of the Falling Star Continent." Jun Changxiao cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Sorry, sorry."
Xi Jingxuan shook her head and said, "I am not the Child of the Falling Star Continent. I heard from Master that the Power of Origin in my body is unusual and may come from the upper universe."
"Oh?"
Jun Changxiao was stunned.
The system said, "It seems that this woman has a story that no one knows."
"Palace Master Xi, do you know what kind of dimension it is?" Jun Changxiao asked.
"I don't know."
Xi Jingxuan said with a sad expression, "The Power of Origin is the essence of a dimension. If it is integrated into a martial artist's body, it means that the dimension will no longer exist."
"Uh …"
Jun Changxiao understood.
Since there was the Power of Origin in her body, her previous dimension might have been destroyed. No wonder she said that she had no parents and no relatives.
"However …"
Xi Jingxuan looked up and said with a smile, "Master said that if I can see into the third step, I can travel through the upper universe at will. Maybe I can find my homeland and use the Power of Origin to awaken the dimension."
"…"
The corner of Jun Changxiao's mouth twitched.
The third step, how far away was that?
It was undeniable that Xi Jingxuan could break through to the Truth Seeking Realm in a short time. Her improvement speed was very fast, but it would definitely take a long time to see into the Divine Secret Realm. Besides, looking for a dimension without any clues in the upper universe was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Right!
Jun Changxiao thought of something and said, "I have the warship that the Star Spirit World invaded earlier. It can cross the upper universe regardless of the realm. Palace Master Xi can go with me. If you're lucky, you might be able to find it."
"Okay," Xi Jingxuan said.
Seeing her agree so readily, Jun Changxiao was a little stunned.
Xi Jingxuan lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes. "Back then, I refused your invitation and didn't ascend to the upper world with you. In the future … I will never refuse again."
"Damn!"
Su Xiaomo, who was eavesdropping, exclaimed, "This is equivalent to confessing to the Patriarch!"
"Okay then."
Jun Changxiao said, "I will inform you when we set off. Just come to the Sect of All Times to meet me then."
"Okay!"
Xi Jingxuan nodded with a smile on her face.
Jun Changxiao raised his hand, looked at Lao Litu, and cupped his hands. "It's getting late. I'll take my disciples back to the sect first. Goodbye, Palace Master Xi!"
"Puff!"
Su Xiaomo spat out a mouthful of blood.
