Now that things had developed to this point, Dugu Anran's heart was completely at ease.
Fang Tianyi was also a human being, not an immortal god. Under such circumstances, he would definitely die.
Even if the fake took away Fang Tianyi's body, he would not be able to do anything.
The control of the Immortal Court of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals over the Dongsheng Continent could be said to be airtight. It might not have any effect on a peak expert like Fang Tianyi, but for the fake Fang Tianyi and Mu Mu, it was tantamount to an inescapable net, and it was very easy to capture them.
Moreover, he still had a backup plan. The Immortal Marrow that had fallen into Mu Mu's hands would be recovered.
Apart from being heavily injured, everything else could be said to be a perfect ending.
Dongfang Yeren walked over and hurriedly supported Dugu Anran. He even handed over Fang Tianyi's head and said, "It's all thanks to you, Milord. At the most crucial moment, you struck Fang Tianyi with the Awakening Might Strike. He was already dead before I could chop off his head."
He wanted to give the credit to Dugu Anran.
Dugu Anran nodded and did not say anything else. However, he was extremely satisfied with Dongfang Yeren's performance. "Master Dongfang's contribution cannot go unnoticed. Rest assured, I will report this matter to the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals."
Dongfang Yeren was overjoyed. "This subordinate thanks Milord."
Dugu Anran felt a little dizzy. His whole body was unprecedentedly weak. His body swayed a little. He then said to the other survivors, "Today, all of you have fought to the death and made a great contribution. The Immortal Court will not ignore it. All of you will receive the greatest reward from the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals."
The various experts, who were riddled with injuries, suddenly became excited.
"Thank you, Sir Immortal Master."
"Long live the Immortal Court!"
"Glory to the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals."
They all bowed respectfully and excitedly and cheered.
"As for them …"
Dugu Anran's eyes fell on the four Divine Guards who had already fainted. Undisguised killing intent flashed in his eyes. Although he had won today, Fang Tianyi had seriously injured him. This resentment had accumulated in his heart and it was unbearable.
He looked around and saw the thousand-meter-tall stone pillar in the ruins of the Grand Imperial Hall. A thought flashed through his mind.
Immortal power surged.
Boom boom boom boom!
The four Divine Guards, who were still unconscious, were sent flying.
Dugu Anran raised his hand.
Xiu xiu xiu xiu!
The purple Immortal Qi transformed into dozens of purple spears that shot out and pierced the four divine guards' limbs and hearts, nailing them to the stone pillars alive. Blood flowed along the lines of the stone pillars and flowed down.
Cruel.
Grim.
Everyone's heart was filled with shock.
By the time they reacted, the four Divine Guards were already pinned down.
Especially Ming Hua and Feng Juan, the two traitorous divine guards. When they saw this scene, their hearts were filled with fear.
Grand Celestial Leader Dugu Anran did not conceal his hatred for Fang Tianyi and the eight Celestial Guards, which made them extremely uneasy.
"They all have to die, but I want them to suffer in the last moments of their lives." Dugu Anran smiled coldly and said, "Men, send out my order. Let the seventh general of the military headquarters, Lin Ao, who is stationed outside the Siming Mountain range, bring his troops here and arrange a formation here to lure and kill any reinforcements that might appear later on."
"Understood."
A Young Immortal Master turned around to send the message.
Only then was Dugu Anran satisfied. He felt as if a weight had been lifted off his chest, and he had never felt so content before.
However, it was also at this time that an unexpected change occurred.
Dugu Anran had expended a lot of his Immortal Qi, and the suppression of the two Swords of Exile in his body had quietly relaxed. The power of the backlash suddenly erupted like a mountain torrent.
"Ugh … Pfft!"
He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. His vision darkened, and he felt dizzy. His body went limp, and he almost collapsed.
The accumulated injuries could not be suppressed any longer, and were finally about to burst out.
"Lord … What's wrong, Lord?"
Dongfang Ye Ren turned pale with fright, and hurried over to support Dugu Anran.
Dugu Anran forcibly suppressed his injuries, swallowed a mouthful of blood, and forced himself to say, "I'm fine …"
His voice came to an abrupt halt.
Dugu Anran's face suddenly froze, and his pupils shrank rapidly. He looked at Dongfang Ye Ren in disbelief.
Dongfang Ye Ren, however, seemed not to feel anything. He turned slightly and hugged Dugu Anran completely in his arms, blocking everyone's line of sight. At the same time, he said with concern, "Lord, you've forcefully activated your cultivation technique continuously, and your body's condition is too bad … Lord, Lord?"
He cried out in alarm.
At this time, Dugu Anran's body had already gone limp, and all the strength in his body had been sucked out in an instant. He couldn't even move a finger. His eyes stared fixedly at Dongfang Ye Ren, but he couldn't say a word.
"Not good, Lord's injuries are too serious, and he can't hold on any longer."
Dongfang Ye Ren suddenly seemed to have sensed something, and he shouted loudly.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Dugu Anran's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He stared at Dongfang Ye Ren, and felt as if a boundless darkness was about to swallow him up. Dongfang Ye Ren's hand was supporting him, and a terrifying destructive power was silently and frantically pouring into his body, causing him to lose all ability to resist.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined that he would be plotted against by his most trusted subordinate in such a manner at this time.
He had been hunting wild geese all day, but today, he had been pecked blind by them.
His immortal energy was in disorder, and the power of the two Swords of Exile in his body was no longer suppressed, and suddenly exploded. In the instant that his body was completely annihilated, the last question that appeared in Dugu Anran's mind was: why did Dongfang Ye Ren betray him?
Was it because of the position of the Great Immortal Master of the Immortal Court in the Dongsheng Continent?
If he had died, Dongfang Ye Ren would have been able to use the credit of killing Fang Tianyi to ascend to the position of Great Immortal Master.
He had been too careless.
He had died because of his own people.
Dugu Anran's heart was filled with indignation and anger, but it was already too late.
Boom!
The two Swords of Exile in his body finally exploded, and Dugu Anran's physical body and primordial spirit were completely annihilated.
Dongfang Ye Ren's body was also blown away by the explosion.
He shouted, "My Lord, no … quickly save my Lord …"
Although he looked like he was covered in wounds and blood, in reality, he hadn't suffered any serious injuries at all.
In a normal battle, Dongfang Ye Ren had always maintained his strength. So far, his strength was definitely the strongest among the people present.
By the time everyone came to their senses, Dugu Anran, the pinnacle giant of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals who had stood at the peak of the Dongsheng Continent for countless years, was completely cold. Not even an intact corpse was preserved.
Everyone stared at this scene, dumbfounded.
No one thought that at the final moment of victory, Dugu Anran, who should have enjoyed the fruits of victory and achieved historical merit, would suddenly … die.
Dongfang Ye Ren only picked up some of Dugu Anran's storage immortal treasures.
He didn't dwell too much on the death of the Great Immortal Master. His eyes swept across the crowd, and he said lightly, "Lord Dugu died of exhaustion after a bitter battle. Fortunately, he had seriously injured Fang Tianyi, which gave me the opportunity to kill Fang Tianyi. Everyone's cooperation has contributed a lot. I will certainly report this to the headquarters of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals for commendation. Everyone … has worked hard."
Everyone was startled when they heard this.
These people were all cunning foxes. Although Dongfang Yeren's method seemed to be in line with the facts, the credit for killing Fang Tianyi had returned to him. What did this mean?
The Lord of the Punishment Manor was about to reveal his brilliance.
Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Còm
With Dugu Anran's death, this huge contribution had changed hands.
After all, a dead person did not need any credit.
"Yes, yes, yes, Master Dongfang is right." A Prefecture Young Immortal Master said.
The others also immediately joined in and expressed their approval. They repeated the same words they had used to flatter Dugu Anran, but this time, it was directed at Dongfang Ye Ren.
At a time like this, whoever said the opposite was courting death.
Not only was Dongfang Yeren the strongest, but his status was also the highest.
Dongfang Yeren nodded in satisfaction. "Everyone has heard Lord Dugu's arrangements before he died. Lin Ao will come and settle the matters here. Everyone, please leave with me."
No one dared to disobey Dongfang Yeren's order, so they had to leave with him.
The two traitorous divine guards, Ming Hua and Feng Juan, had pinned their hopes on Dongfang Ye Ren. Therefore, they did not dare to be negligent.
…
…
"So, in fact, you don't know whether Sword God Fang is alive or dead?"
After hearing Liusu's description, Li Mu felt a headache.
"Didn't she say that Fang Tianyi broke out of the encirclement and escaped?
Why does it sound like he has already donated? "
Liusu did not look at Li Mu, but her expression was unprecedentedly firm. She said, "His Honor is not dead. His Honor has encountered many more dangerous encounters than this one, but he survived all of them."
Li Mu still wanted to say something.
Liusu turned her head and glared at him fiercely.
Li Mu did not say anything.
He immediately understood the mentality of the female goddess guard.
No matter what the truth was, she would always believe in one thing — Fang Tianyi would not die.
That was a belief.
It was also a kind of obsession.
More like a prayer.
Li Mu sighed inwardly, hoping that Fang Tianyi was really alive. But to be honest, Li Mu did not have much hope.
"By the way, who is the man who pretended to be Sword God Fang?"
Li Mu asked curiously.
Liusu said, "He is a new disciple of Lady Lan, a rare genius in swordsmanship."
Li Mu did not know who Lady Lan was, so he did not ask.
"What are we going to do next?"
Li Mu asked again.
According to his own plan, he had to hurry back to the Emperor Cliff, find Little Nine and the others, and then prepare to take refuge. It would be best if he could go to the Central Chaotic Realm with Liusu and join the resistance army. After all, his identity had been mostly exposed, and the news had been leaked out. The Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals would not let him go.
After sending Little Nine, Young Chen Huang, and the others to safety, Li Mu would come back to find Yuan Hou and find a way to get rid of the two bastards, Feng Hen and Yu Sheng.
Liusu said, "His Honor Fang said that if he is in danger this time, we should go to find a person, and he will tell us what to do next."
