"Little Brother Xiao Chen, I really misunderstood you last time."
The Vice Sect Master, Fang Baiyu, stepped forward, feeling deeply ashamed. Xiao Chen had a pure heart, speaking his mind bluntly. However, because Fang Baiyu felt uncomfortable, he misunderstood Xiao Chen instead, not even giving him a chance to speak.
However, now that a great disaster was upon them, and Xiao Chen was the first to lead a team to save them, he did not care about the grievances he suffered earlier.
"Vice Sect Master, you are too serious. The most important thing now is to retreat."
Xiao Chen smiled. He did not care about the earlier matter in the first place. Why would he care about it now?
The Fiend Race Greater Heavenly Martial Emperor, Jiang Chuan, said, "Little Brother Xiao Chen, come with us. As long as our group retreats to the sixth layer of formations, the situation of the battle will calm down."
As long as they activated the sixth layer of formations, they would be prepared and defend with all their might. The Deity Dao Union would not be able to break through quickly.
This was because the closer they got to Haotian City, the stronger the defenses of the formations would be.
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I can't go with you. Someone has to stay behind and bring up the rear. Otherwise, if the Deity Dao Union continues to chase us, we will suffer heavy casualties."
Fang Baiyu and the other two Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors turned their heads to look. The hundreds of Respected Deities surrounding the surging pillar of fire were slowly gathering.
Farther away, Di Wuque was currently sorting out the chaotic situation on the huge Deity Race warship. Once the two sides gathered, they would be a huge force.
If they truly gave chase, at least half of the two hundred-odd people here would not be able to return.
The expressions of surviving a calamity on the three's faces faded. They knew that this was just the beginning. Whether they could escape this group of Respected Deities, as well as the pursuit of Di Wuque and the other Deity Dao Union experts, was still unknown.
Xiao Chen was right. Someone did need to bring up the rear. However, this person could not be Xiao Chen.
Fang Baiyu and the other two exchanged glances and immediately understood each other's intentions. Fang Baiyu said, "That's right. There is indeed a need to bring up the rear. However, the three of us will be responsible for bringing up the rear. Xiao Chen, you will be responsible for bringing them to the rear."
Xiao Chen still shook his head and said softly, "That won't do. Di Wuque's killing intent towards me has reached the pinnacle. Even if you want to stop him, he won't fight you. If I bring them along, I'll be harming them instead. "
"What did you do?" Mo Chen asked curiously.
Xiao Chen recalled the scene of the Divine Daughter suffering the backlash of the Lightning Tribulation. He said softly, "Perhaps I was careless and killed the Divine Daughter, Tianyou Xi."
Although his words were light, the ripples it created were no less than a depth charge.
"Ah!"
Everyone who heard this was startled. Who in the Kunlun Realm did not know about the relationship between Di Wuque and Tianyou Xi? If Xiao Chen really killed Tianyou Xi, Di Wuque would definitely go crazy.
Fang Baiyu and the other two Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors did not know what to say, unable to rebut.
Xiao Chen said softly, "All of you, let's go. I was planning to bring up the rear in the first place. Nothing deviated from my plan."
However, his plan had deviated slightly. He had not thought of killing the Divine Daughter.
However, that did not matter. Di Wuque wanted to compete with him for the position of Luck. The two sides were already like fire and water, mortal enemies. In the Heavenly Starry Ocean, the Divine Daughter had provoked the Five Poison Sect's Elders to kill Xiao Chen.
Today, she wanted to use the World Exterminating Lightning Tribulation to kill Xiao Chen. Even if Tianyou Xi really died, Xiao Chen's mental state would not change much.
Everyone served their own masters and followed their fates. On the path of cultivation, life and death were the most common thing.
At this moment, every second mattered. The earlier they left, the greater their chances of survival.
Naturally, Fang Baiyu understood this principle. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Come back alive. This time, the three of us owe you too much."
Without saying anything more, the group quickly left, heading for Haotian City at lightning speed.
Mo Chen, Yue Bingyun, and the other girls turned their heads back three times with every step, watching Xiao Chen's lone figure. They wanted to stay several times, but they knew Xiao Chen's temper. If they stayed, Xiao Chen would definitely persuade them to leave.
At this moment, the love between men and women seemed somewhat extravagant. They could only pray in their hearts that Xiao Chen could return safely.
Suddenly, yellow sand filled the air in front. Beams of divine light soared into the clouds amid the dense yellow sand, turning into a surging battle hunger that spread in the sky. It turned into a torrential battle will that filled the sky, manifesting many mysterious phenomena that surged along with the clouds.
When Xiao Chen looked up, the many mysterious phenomena materialized the most ancient war banners of the Deity Race.
The war banners contained glory, faith, and boundless killing intent.
When Xiao Chen saw this scene, he understood. He finally understood why Meteor Trail City lost so quickly.
One or a few Gods on their own wouldn't be much of a threat, but when they regrouped and combined together, However, when they merged, the power that they could erupt with would be something that even Sovereign Martial Emperors would not dare to clash with.
The Deities were very strong. However, Xiao Chen did not fear them.
Xiao Chen slowly stretched out his right hand, and a Buddhist lamp slowly appeared in his palm. A śarīra hovered above the Buddhist lamp. The śarīra gave off a bright light, and the image of the Maheśvara Buddha chanted scriptures amid the light.
With the support of this śarīra, the wondrous effects of the Buddhist lamp immediately magnified significantly.
The Heavenly Snow Divine Flame nourished in it had already advanced from Rank 1 to Rank 2, reaching a level where it could kill a peak Sixth Heaven Martial Emperor, Emperor Wu.
Xiao Chen opened his mouth and sucked in the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame, sending it to the Heart of an Emperor in his dantian.
After that, he put away the Buddhist lamp and śarīra. Then, he took out a flask of wine and sat down cross-legged. As he looked at the flying yellow sand in front, he started drinking alone.
Amid the flying yellow sand, Xiao Chen's vision passed through the countless Deity Race Deities and arrived at the very center. Di Wuque carried the faintly discernible Tianyou Xi, who was on the verge of death. His face filled with grief and self-blame. Faint tears flickered in his eyes.
The guilt in Di Wuque's heart could not be described with words. Earlier, he had acted on his own.
Earlier, he had been stubborn and did not want to let go of this rare opportunity to kill Xiao Chen. However, he was extremely smart and should have thought of it long ago. Since Xiao Chen charged over, he naturally had a trump card.
He could only blame himself for being overconfident. There were many experts on the Deity Race's warship, so he did not fear that Xiao Chen could do anything.
However, when Xiao Chen truly revealed his trump card, everything was over. Before Xiao Chen, who used his Dharmic Incarnation to execute a Martial Technique, the huge Deity Race warship crumbled at the first blow.
The Divine Might formation broke, and the Lightning Tribulation rebounded. The World Exterminating Lightning Tribulation, which should have struck Xiao Chen, rebounded and injured Tianyou Xi. "Wuque, don't cry. You are the Divine Son. In the future, you will be the bearer of the Luck of the entire Kunlun Realm. How can you cry?!"
"Wuque, don't cry. You are the Deity Son. In the future, you will be the Kun Lun Realm's Luck Son. How can you cry?!"
Tianyou Xi looked at Di Wuque's face and stretched out her hand as if she wanted to wipe away the tears in Di Wuque's eyes, not letting them fall. She stretched out a hand towards Di Wuque's face as if she wanted to wipe away the tears in his eyes, not letting them fall.
However, when Tianyou Xi extended her hand halfway, she suddenly fell back down weakly, like a flower withering and losing its color.
Di Wuque's heart sank. He quickly pulled Tianyou Xi's hand and brought it to his face. He cried out hoarsely, "I won't cry! I won't cry! Tianyou Xi, wake up! Wake up!"
The surroundings fell silent. No one spoke. Everyone could sense the sorrow and pain in Di Wuque's words.
"Tianyou Xi, look at me. I'm not crying! I'm not crying!"
However, that peerlessly pure and holy face had already lost all signs of life. No matter how much Di Wuque screamed, he could not wake up.
The World Exterminating Lightning Tribulation was a consummate technique that could instantly kill a Greater Heavenly Emperor Wu. How could Tianyou Xi endure the might of the rebound?
Di Wuque's eyes were misty, and tears were already streaming down his face. However, he kept shouting, "I'm not crying! I'm not crying!"
"Xiao Chen, I, Di Wuque, will never be able to live under the same sky as you. If I don't kill you, I won't be able to vent the hatred in my heart!"
Xiao Chen, who was drinking wine, heard a hoarse roar filled with killing intent and pain coming from the yellow sand filling the air.
Then, the sky and earth shook, and the sounds of killing shook the heavens. Heavy footsteps rang out from the yellow sand. Step by step, the rumbling sound got closer to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly as he guessed something. Tianyou Xi was probably really dead.
He stood up and poured the half-empty bottle of wine on the ground. Xiao Chen muttered, "You protected him for life. This promise is worth it. Although our paths are different, I'll still give you half a bottle of wine. Have a safe journey! "
"Pa!"
Xiao Chen let go, and the bottle made of fine jade shattered all over the ground. It was like the Goddess Tianyou Xi had passed away.
