"Tell me, what are you thinking?" Eva held her goblet and looked indifferently at Xi Yan, her best friend who had known her for over ten thousand years.
"Actually, I don't have any thoughts. I'm just very confused."
Xi Yan put down her goblet, raised her hands behind her head, and lay lazily on the dirty sofa. "Also, I'm tired. I don't want to continue working meaninglessly."
"Tired?"
"Yes. For tens of thousands of years, we've experienced many massacres. Every time, I firmly believed that what we did was for judgment and justice. But now, it seems that isn't the case. We're just trying to protect our position as the master of the God Realm."
Xi Yan laughed self-deprecatingly. "I originally thought that I was a blazing angel who defended the Western Divine Realm. But now, it seems that I'm just an executioner. For our own selfish desires, we've caused the mortal world to be at war for years. Many living beings have died because of us. This isn't something that the God Realm should do. Gods should pity the common people and not treat mortals as ants."
"Are you blaming the ruler?" Eva asked with a smile.
"No, I'm not." Xi Yan shook her head, but felt that such a denial was too weak.
Mao Wa took another sip of wine and said, "Just as you said, the ruler's actions over the past year have indeed exceeded the standards of a ruler of the God Realm, and he is more like a tyrant. But Xi Yan, you should also look at it from another perspective. The rise of the East Heaven Court has caused the other three great Heaven Realms to feel that they are in imminent danger. At this time, the ruler has already lost his composure. Is it too much to do so many things in order to protect his ruling position in the West Heaven Realm? He's just doing what a ruler should do. "
"Maybe you're right."
Xi Yan's gaze was indifferent. "After I signed a divine contract with Ziyao, why can the Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor and Ziyao abide by it, but not the Lord Ruler? Were the Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor and Ziyao not worried about losing the Shattered Cauldron Realm and Lin Muyu? They are worried as well, but they don't want to trample on their own dignity and principles. Just like Lin Muyu and Xiyin, they have their own principles and bottom lines that they will never be willing to violate. As for the Lord Ruler, he … he has already lost all of his bottom lines. "
Eva was stunned. She muttered, "You … you're very angry at the Sovereign?"
"Or rather, I'm disappointed."
Xi Yan looked out of the window, her eyes as clear as water. "That's why I've decided to leave the Immortal World and become a mortal, to pursue the life I want. Even if I can't achieve eternal life, at least I want to truly live once."
"Why don't we go through the Star Cavern?" Eva looked straight at her.
"Because I don't want to continue supporting the Divine Pact. This is a meaningless Divine Pact."
Xi Yan suddenly stood up and said, "Time's up. Eva, I'm going to the Shattered Cauldron Realm to look for Xiyin. What about you?"
"Me?"
Eva pursed her red lips and said, "The Western Divine Realm is in chaos now. Due to the overbearing attitude of the East Heaven, all the great families are in a state of panic. The flames of war have already been ignited at the borders. I have to lead the Divine Race army to quell the chaos. Sigh … it's not too late for you to change your mind now. At least you still have your Blazing Angel cultivation. However, once you go to the Shattered Cauldron Realm, you will trigger the Divine Pact and lose everything."
"Lose everything?"
Xi Yan smiled and shook her head. "No, I still have Xiyin. I heard that Tarilyn, Lake, and the others are still in the Shattered Cauldron Realm. Following Xiyin is equivalent to betraying the Western Divine Realm. The Sovereign definitely won't let them off. So I … I have the responsibility to lead them to a path of survival."
"Can you still lead them to the light after losing your godly power?"
"Why? You don't believe in my ability?" Xi Yan smiled and gently opened her palm. A small sword of light condensed at the tip of each of her fingers. She smiled and said, "Eva, don't forget that we have sparred countless times over the years. You have never won against me even once."
"I admit that the Seven Slashes are indeed powerful. However, can you still use the Seven Slashes without your godly power?"
Eva frowned. "How about this. After I return to the Western Divine Realm, I will immediately look for Li Fei and have her descend to the mortal world to find you. Li Fei's strength is not bad. At the very least, she can ensure your safety."
"There's no need. Don't let anyone find me."
"Why?"
"I don't want to be a Blazing Angel anymore," Xi Yan said very calmly.
However, Eva was stunned. She could hardly believe that Xi Yan would say such a thing. Blazing Angels were existences that were almost ultimate gods. What kind of person would be willing to give up such a noble identity?
"Alright, Eva, I'm leaving."
Xi Yan stood up and suddenly disappeared from the small tavern. The next moment, a ball of fire fell straight into the distance. It was a force that had entered the spatial crack.
"You …"
Eva gritted her teeth. She felt the ground beneath her feet start to tremble. Rays of golden light appeared in the air. The light condensed into ancient characters that spun rapidly in the air. Soon after, they all collapsed.
The Divine Pact had been broken.
The price was that Xi Yan had lost all of her cultivation.
…
Whoosh!
A pillar of light poured down on the ground. The next moment, in the depths of the forest, the light gradually condensed into the image of a beautiful woman. She wore a long white dress and knelt in the wild grass as if she was not afraid of the cold.
Roar …
Her Di Lin had alarmed the surrounding beasts. A grizzly bear woke up from its sleep, roaring and waving its sharp claws to kill.
"Go back."
Xi Yan looked indifferently in the direction of the grizzly bear. She muttered silently, "Go back and rest immediately. Otherwise, you will regret it."
"Roar …"
The grizzly bear stopped. A pair of black eyes stared at the "delicious meal" of Xi Yan. It raised its head and roared. It actually walked back to its nest dejectedly. This was a 240-year-old spiritual grizzly bear. Xi Yan, who had lost her cultivation, actually scared off the grizzly bear just by relying on the aura of a former Blazing Angel!
"Hmph, what a child!"
The corners of Xi Yan's mouth curled up with pride. She slowly drew out the sword "Blazing Moon" from her waist. The blade was slightly curved, like a crescent moon. However, there was a faint scorching power around the blade. This Blazing Moon Sword was also considered one of the top artifacts in the Western Divine Realm. Apart from Claude's Digs Spear and Dagger of Time, the Blazing Moon Sword was probably the strongest.
However, Xi Yan could not muster a trace of divine power in her body. Her power had been completely drained the moment she entered the Shattered Cauldron Realm with the curse of the Divine Pact. At this time, her body was like a huge dried up lake. Although it was deep and wide, there was not a single drop of power left.
With a slight frown, Xi Yan's hand that was holding the Blazing Moon Sword trembled slightly. This longsword that had been with her for many years seemed to be on the verge of losing control. A tyrannical power surged out from the blade and slowly devoured Xi Yan's palm.
In an instant, Xi Yan stood rooted to the ground. Her face was pale and her arms trembled violently. She gritted her teeth and said in an imposing manner, "Blazing Moon, are you crazy? Don't tell me you don't recognize me anymore? Behave yourself. Otherwise, I will smelt you and turn you into a pickaxe for digging coal. "
"Buzz buzz …"
This threat was very powerful. The devouring of the Blazing Moon Sword gradually weakened, allowing Xi Yan to relax. The artifact originally contained power. Although she did not have divine power in her body, she might be able to use the first few moves of the Seven Slashes by using the power of the Blazing Moon. If that was the case, at least she would have the power to protect herself in this plane.
Step by step, she walked to the edge of the forest. When she came to the main road, she saw a stone tablet buried at the edge of the official road from afar. On it were three huge words: Cangnan Province.
…
In the East Heaven, Xi Yan's lonely figure appeared in the huge Pond of Illusion.
The Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor was dressed in military attire, ready to personally lead the army into battle. Holding the Pangu Axe in his hand, he squinted his eyes and smiled. "The divine pact has been lifted. Ziyao, you can finally rest assured now."
At the side, Ziyao nodded and smiled. "Hmm, looks like Xi Yan was the first to choose to give up."
Qing Ping said, "At this moment, the Western Divine Realm is in chaos. This is a great opportunity for us to send troops to destroy the Western Divine Realm. Demon Emperor, it's not wise to miss this opportunity. Besides, Claude has lost the help of the Blazing Angel Xi Yan. It's like he has lost an arm. This is a great opportunity for us!"
The Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor said calmly, "I know. When I'm ready, we'll start the battle immediately."
At this moment, from the ranks of the God Emperors, a person holding a spear walked out and said, "Your Majesty Demon Emperor, this Xi Yan is one of the two Blazing Angels and also one of our greatest threats. She took the initiative to violate the divine pact and give up her cultivation. Could she be doing something wrong? I suggest that we immediately send a God Emperor to the Lower Realm to kill Xi Yan. We'll cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. We'll make the Western Divine Realm lose the strongest Blazing Angel! "
The Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor looked at the group of God Emperors from afar and said, "What do you think?"
The Gods were stunned. One of them stepped out and said, "Your Majesty Demon Emperor, I think it's feasible. For now, we haven't figured out Xi Yan's real goal. The most direct way to solve the problem is to kill Xi Yan and make all their plans go up in smoke."
"Is there anyone else who thinks so?"
The other God Emperors nodded one after another. "Yes, cut the weeds and eliminate the roots!"
Ziyao frowned slightly and looked at the Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor, but she didn't say anything.
The Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor slowly sat on the God King's seat and pointed at the crowd. He scolded while spitting saliva, "That's why I said you are rookies who have been cultivating for thousands of years and haven't improved. Do you know why? Your mental state is too weak! We are Gods. We should be thinking about creating the world and taking pity on all living things. But all you think about is fighting and killing all day long. When will you ever reach the 99 God Emperor Realm? "
The Gods trembled with fear. None of them dared to say anything.
The Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor had an arrogant look on his face. "Don't talk nonsense with me. Immediately prepare to attack the Western Divine Realm. Also, Ziyao, you don't have to go to war. Just watch over the Shattered Cauldron Realm and inform me immediately if there are any strange movements."
"Yes, Demon Emperor." Ziyao smiled happily. "Then … what about Xi Yan?"
"Protect her well. If she encounters any danger, go to the Lower Realm at any time."
The Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor nodded and looked at the simple patterns on the floor. He said, "No matter what, she is Yu Yu's sister-in-law. If anything happens to Xi Yan, I won't be able to face it."
