Lu Jiang He was definitely not the person closest to Chu Xiu, but he could be considered the person who understood Chu Xiu the most.
If Chu Xiu died so easily, then he would not be Chu Xiu.
Sure enough, under Ling Yunzi's powerful attack, the area within a few miles with the two of them as the epicenter had already been scorched.
The ground had been melted by the scorching high temperature, turning into a pool of strange crystals that shone with a glazed luster.
A blood cocoon stood on the ground where Chu Xiu had been. In the next moment, the blood cocoon split open, revealing Chu Xiu's pale face.
The all-out attack of a Heaven and Earth Abstruse Realm expert was indeed not that easy to resist. If Ling Yunzi had been a little stronger, even with the Blood Demon Transformation Technique, Chu Xiu would not have been able to resist it.
Moreover, the effects of the Undying Demon Pill were also able to display the greatest power under such a powerful force.
When the powerful pure Yang energy penetrated the blood cocoon and attacked Chu Xiu's body, if it had been anyone else, their injuries would have become more and more serious.
However, because of the Eternal Demon Pill, as long as this force was not strong enough to destroy Chu Xiu's body in an instant, the Eternal Demon Pill could temporarily offset this force.
Ling Yunzi looked at Chu Xiu, the fear in his eyes could not be any greater.
Chu Xiu had used True Fire to resist the all-out attack of a Heaven and Earth Abstruse Realm expert, but he could still resist it. This kind of strength was already extremely shocking.
Although Chu Xiu was powerful now, he was still young.
Everyone thought that the most terrifying thing about Chu Xiu was his strength and his ruthless methods.
However, they did not know that the most terrifying thing about Chu Xiu was his age, because there were countless possibilities in his future!
In time, would he become the next Ye Shaonan? Would he … become the next Dugu Weiwei!
Ling Yunzi didn't dare to continue thinking about it. At this moment, his fear of Chu Xiu had reached its peak.
The entire Hidden Devil Clan was not as threatening as Chu Xiu.
He had made up his mind that he must kill Chu Xiu on the spot this time. Even if he was injured, he must kill Chu Xiu.
However, at this moment, a warrior from the Real Martial Arts Sect took out a Matrix Board. The Matrix Dao's radiance flickered on it and converged into runes that flowed into his body.
After he finished reading the contents of the rune, the expression of the martial artist of the Real Martial Sect suddenly changed. He shouted, "Not good! Sect Leader, Eastern Qi has retreated!
Just now, there was news that the cultivators from overseas had attacked the border of Eastern Qi. Because there was no one there to defend Eastern Qi, they had already lost two counties in a single day!
Eastern Qi has now recalled all the strong armies of the nine borders. At the same time, the Five Armies of the Northern Yan State have begun to march towards Shang Mang Mountain to support Wei County! "
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
No one had expected that the first to retreat this time would not be them, but Eastern Qi.
However, they couldn't do anything about it. The righteous martial arts world and the Eastern Qi Imperial Court had only joined forces. What could they do if Eastern Qi wanted to retreat?
Moreover, based on Lü Hau Chang's character, if Lü Hau Chang didn't retreat after such a major incident, he wouldn't be Lü Hau Chang.
If it had been a decisive and courageous emperor, they might have persisted. After all, the Northern Yan side was on the verge of collapse. It wouldn't be too late to deal with the cultivators of Eastern Sea after they had completely defeated the Northern Yan. After all, the latter was just a minor ailment. With just the cultivators of Eastern Sea, they couldn't directly occupy Eastern Qi.
However, the problem was that Lü Hau Chang didn't have the courage to do so.
For Lü Hau Chang, being able to protect the family property left behind by his ancestors was enough. He didn't care about other achievements if he could get them.
His bottom line was to protect the family property of his ancestors. Therefore, he didn't dare to take this gamble.
When the crowd heard the news of Eastern Qi's retreat, the cultivators of Eastern Qi's righteous sects, some of them were rogue cultivators, and people from other sects. They looked at each other and quietly withdrew from the battle.
With the retreat of Eastern Qi, they had already lost this round. If they continued to fight, they would only increase the number of casualties. There was no point in continuing.
They came here for the benefits. Now that they couldn't see any benefits, what was the point of continuing to fight?
Their departure was like an avalanche, causing a chain reaction. Those who originally didn't plan to leave also began to retreat.
The righteous sects were an alliance to begin with. During the first battle, there was already a sense of instability. This time, it was even more so.
Seeing those from the alliance of the righteous sects retreating one by one, Han Jiusi and the others wanted to stop them, but how could they?
In an instant, the righteous sects, who had the advantage in numbers, suddenly lost nearly half of their members.
Chu Xiu looked at Ling Yunzi with a pale face and sneered, "Leader Ling Yunzi, continue to fight. Let's make a bet. Let's see if it's me or your side that can't hold on first."
Ling Yunzi's face was extremely gloomy. The scene in front of him was almost exactly the same as the time when he led Chunyang Dao Sect to attack Chu Xiu. He was once again caught in a dilemma.
He could see that Chu Xiu was not in a good state at this time. Although he could resist the power of the Mysterious Realm of Heaven and Earth, he was after all not in the Mysterious Realm of Heaven and Earth. He could hold on for a while, but Ling Yunzi did not believe that he could hold on until the end.
However, the problem was that half of the people from the righteous sects had left. The disciples on his side were also in low spirits. On the other hand, although everyone on the side of the diabolism was also injured, their spirits were high.
In this way, if the battle continued, would the Chunyang Dao Sect, the Real Martial Arts Sect, and the other sects be able to hold on? So now, they were in this awkward situation again.
After a long while, Ling Yunzi closed his eyes and shouted in a low voice, "Retreat!"
He still did not have the determination to perish together with Chu Xiu. It should be said that even if he had the determination, the Chunyang Dao Sect did not.
With the Chunyang Dao Sect's retreat, the alliance of the righteous sects had completely collapsed. This made all the diabolism martial artists present heave a sigh of relief.
They did not win this time, but they had successfully pulled through.
Before anyone could say anything, Heavenly King Shen had already walked over with his people. He looked at Chu Xiu without saying a word. His intention was already very clear.
Chu Xiu did not mind. He directly threw the sword ball to Heavenly King Shen.
This thing was useless to him, so it was worth it to exchange it for Swordking City's help.
Fang Qi Shao chuckled at the side and said, "Brother Chu, you have to thank me this time. Those guys from the Chunyang Dao Sect attacked you, but I stood firmly on your side. You are the landlord over at Northern Yan. In the future, when I come to Northern Yan, will I not have to spend money to visit the brothels? "
"Drag him away!"
Heavenly King Shen roared with a dark face. Bai Qian immediately dragged Fang Qi Shao away, lest he tarnished Swordking City's reputation.
In the past, Chu Xiu and Fang Qi Shao were of the same generation, but they were all elites on the Longhu List.
But looking at Chu Xiu and then at Fang Qi Shao, Heavenly King Shen had the urge to drag the seventh young master out and beat him up.
He coughed and said in a low voice, "Official Chu, where did you find this sword ball? If you find a relic of a Sword Dao elite, Swordking City is willing to pay a high price for it. "
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "I'm afraid you'll be disappointed, Sect Leader Shen. I found this sword ball by accident overseas. I didn't find any relic."
Hearing Chu Xiu's words, Heavenly King Shen could only give up. But he still asked curiously, "Official Chu, there's something I'm curious about. How did you convince those overseas people to help? I've come into contact with those overseas martial artists. They're a bunch of people who won't do anything unless they see something good. They won't help unless they see something good in it.
Especially that Fifth Lord Huo from Paragon Island. That old man is not easy to deal with.
Of course, if this matter is related to some secrets of Official Chu, it's fine if you don't tell me. I'm just a little curious. "
Heavenly King Shen was also aware of his status. Although he was on Chu Xiu's side this time, it didn't mean he would always be on Chu Xiu's side. They couldn't be considered allies. It was just an exchange of benefits. It was normal that Chu Xiu didn't tell him.
At that moment, Wei Shuya and the other Hidden Demons were all looking at Chu Xiu. Clearly, they were also a little curious about what Chu Xiu had done overseas.
There was no need to hide these things. Chu Xiu just smiled and said, "It's very simple. When I first came to overseas, they weren't very willing to cooperate with me, especially that Fifth Lord Huo. So I killed that Fifth Lord Huo and destroyed Paragon Island. Then, I let those who were willing to cooperate with me and help me control overseas. That's all. "
Hearing Chu Xiu tell the story so casually, everyone present felt a chill in their hearts.
Chu Xiu had actually overturned all the forces in the Endless Sea Islands after a trip to the Endless Sea Islands. This kind of behavior was simply chilling.
He had said it casually, but in reality, who knew how many people had been killed and how much blood had been shed?
Even Heavenly King Shen had to admit that he was impressed. He immediately bid farewell and left.
He didn't dare to listen anymore. He was afraid that if he did, he would hear something that would ruin his worldview.
After Heavenly King Shen left, Chu Xiu cupped his fists at everyone present. "Everyone, thank you for your hard work."
The Hidden Demons regarded Chu Xiu as their core, but they couldn't ignore the role of others.
If it weren't for them, even if Chu Xiu had persuaded the East Sea forces to help, the Northern Yan wouldn't have lasted until now.
But this battle wasn't without benefits.
Although Chu Xiu had lost some of his subordinates, some of them had become much stronger.
Lu Fengxian had already stepped into the True Fire Spirit Refinement stage. Even Chu Xiu was extremely surprised.
Among the elites on the Longhu Leaderboard, Chu Xiu, Zong Xuan, and Zhang Chengzhen were recognized as the strongest.
Although Lu Fengxian had become a hot topic because of Yan Feiyan, most people still thought that Lu Fengxian couldn't compare to those three.
But now, Lu Fengxian had become the second person on the Longhu Leaderboard to step into the True Fire Spirit Refinement stage in Chu Xiu's generation. This was enough to shock everyone.
