The Minister of Ceremonies had been killed, the Head of the Inspection Department and the other Commissar officials had been killed, but the Profound cultivator that the Profound Palace had sent to protect them had done nothing. Instead, he had become the only one who had survived. The Commissar's questioning of the Profound Palace immediately grew louder.
In Auspicious Light City, under the influence of some people, there were all kinds of unfavorable remarks about Xuanfu.
The Minister of Ceremonies, Liu Fengquan, was very angry. He could see that Xiang Chun was completely perfunctory to him last time. The Xuanxiu that he sent did not have the ability to protect the officials at all.
Therefore, he said that if Xuanfu could not shoulder the responsibility of protecting Auspicious Light City and even the officials of the Commissar, then he could only let the Army of God do it.
The head of Xuanfu, Xiang Chun, dealt with the visitors one by one and said that after waiting for a few more days, Xuanfu would definitely give a satisfactory explanation.
But he secretly complained in his heart, because he was only a substitute who temporarily stayed here to stabilize the people.
Now that the real Xiang Chun, Xu Ying, Wang Gong, Fan Lan, and the others were not here, there was almost no one in Xuanfu who could make decisions. If he did not know that there was still Xuan Shou in Mount Qi, he felt that he would not be able to hold on.
So he could only hope that the cultivators of Xuanfu could return safely this time.
At this time, in the north of Auspicious Light City, in the northern section of the An Mountain Range, in front of a mountain, there were broken corpses everywhere on the ground, as well as glowing blood. But most of them were the children of the God of Plagues.
Xiang Chun walked up a high slope and looked at the mountain in front of him surrounded by green smoke. His expression was full of doubts.
For this battle, he had prepared for a long time and was ready to sacrifice himself. But along the way, the God of Plagues had not even shown his face once, and the ones who stopped them were only some children of God.
But it did not seem like a trap, because in the previous few battles, the children of God that they had annihilated all had the name of God, and could be said to be the backbone of the God of Plagues.
What was the other party planning?
He thought for a moment. The battle had already progressed to this point, and it was impossible to stop.
No matter what the God of Plague was thinking, without the help of these Sons of God, the threat to them would not be as great as before.
Just as he was about to order everyone to head into the mountain plains, the thick fog that shrouded the entire mountain plains suddenly dispersed. Then, an incomparably huge monster appeared before everyone's eyes.
The monster had a toad-like torso, a human face and limbs, and a pair of snake rings under its ears. Its hair was made of leeches.
This was the true body of the God of Plague, and also the body that he used to walk the earth.
However, at this moment, EsGod's eyes were closed, and he was lying on the ground without any signs of life.
Above his head stood a young man who looked to be about 20 years old. His face was tough, but his facial features were very delicate. Under his bangs, there was a pair of scarlet eyes. He was wearing a black overcoat, but it was fused with a strange aura. From afar, it looked like a floating firework.
Xiang Chun's expression turned ugly as he said, "Yingxiong!"
Xu Ying's eyes were also red as he gritted his teeth and said, "Traitor!"
Everyone had different expressions at this moment.
They now understood why when they were attacking the Sons of Plague, there were loud noises coming from the valley from time to time, and why the God of Plague did not appear. It turned out that he was fighting with this person.
Xu Ying walked forward and shouted, "Yingxiong, why are you here?"
Yingxiong's scarlet eyes looked down, full of contempt. Then, under everyone's shocked gazes, he actually slowly floated up from the God of Plague's head, black flames dancing all over his body.
After reaching the sky, he looked down at everyone with a look of disdain. Then, he turned into a long black and red stream of fire and flew away.
Xu Ying had a look of disbelief as he turned back and said, "Senior Brother, h-how can he fly?"
Xiang Chun lowered his head and thought for a moment. He then looked up and said in a low voice, "It's the Turbid Tide! The Turbid Tide is weakening! "
Under normal circumstances, some Mystics with deep foundations would be able to soar through the air after they reached the second chapter of the Dao Scripture and read some of the corresponding seals.
However, with the arrival of the Turbid Tide, a strange and chaotic power would constantly disturb them, making it impossible for them to do so. The further away they were from the mainland, the more serious the influence would be.
Xiang Chun's eyes were not happy, but filled with a heavy heart.
Every true Tianxia citizen on the mainland hoped that the Turbid Tide would disappear, so that they could reconnect with the mainland. However, for now, this was not a good thing, as it meant that the most intense battle was about to come.
Among the cultivators, a Xuanxiu called Qi Wu said, "Master Ying … Why is Yingxiong helping us?"
Xu Ying snorted heavily and said, "What do you mean by helping us? This traitor wants us all dead, so why would he be so kind? " A look of disgust appeared on his face. "He must be trying to obtain some magical organ of the God of Plague to prevent himself from being eroded by the Great Chaos!"
This was something that many Xuanxiu did not know. In fact, it was not impossible to resist the Great Chaos. In the past, the cultivators of the Mun Chapters had figured out a set of effective methods after a long period of cultivation.
When a cultivator cultivated a certain chapter, they could obtain the corresponding spiritual organization from certain spiritual creatures and EsGod. When several spiritual organizations were matched according to a certain order and refined, not only could they neutralize the chaotic power, but they could also improve themselves.
This was a secret technique that was not inferior to the Xuan Chapters' 'Art of Composition'.
Those who did not learn this method or did not know about it could only be controlled by the Great Chaos, and they might even become a chaotic monster that even EsGod was afraid of.
Everyone looked at the God of Plague's huge body with complicated feelings.
Yingxiong was not using them this time, because if the God of Plague brought his Son of God to battle, they would not have it so easy and might even have to pay a heavy price.
Why was the Army of God unwilling to encircle EsGod? It was because they were afraid of losses.
Before they came this time, everyone was prepared to sacrifice themselves, and as long as Xuan Shou was there, Xuanfu would still be able to stand tall.
In fact, Xiang Chun had never said that although he was the one pushing for this matter on the surface, he was actually carrying out Xuan Shou's will.
Although the current outcome was different from what they had imagined, there weren't too many losses, and the Profound Palace still maintained their full strength. In reality, this was the best outcome they could hope for.
Xiang Chun said with a deep voice, "Junior brothers, split up and check. Don't miss anything."
Everyone nodded and split up.
After a long time, Qi Wu and Fan Lan walked over together.
Xiang Chun looked at their solemn expressions and asked, "What happened?"
The two of them looked at each other. Fan Lan stepped forward and clasped her hands together. "Senior Brother, we just checked. The God of Plague and his last few children are still alive. I'm afraid they're still alive."
"Hmm?"
Xiang Chun was startled. "What happened?"
Qi Wu said, "Senior brother, they weren't killed. They just abandoned their bodies and transferred their divine power away from the altar."
Xiang Chun was silent for a moment before saying, "It seems like the God of Plague still has an altar that we don't know about."
Fan Lan was more optimistic. "The transfer of divine power requires a new body, and there will be a greater loss of divine power. The price to pay here is not small. Although the God of Plague has not been destroyed, he can forget about stirring up trouble like before."
Wang Gong frowned. "But where could they have transferred to? The altars in the north have been destroyed by us, unless it's in the south … "At this moment, he suddenly thought of something and looked up." If it's really in the south, will they have any plans for Auspicious Light City? "
Everyone's expression changed. Now that they were attacking with all their strength, Auspicious Light City was undoubtedly empty. If the God of Plague's target was there …
Xu Ying hurriedly said to Xiang Chun, "Senior brother, if that's really the case, we have to go back quickly."
Xiang Chun maintained his calm and said in a deep voice, "Army of God."
"What?"
Xu Ying was confused.
Xiang Chun looked at everyone and said, "Auspicious Light City still has Xuan Shou overseeing it. With just these EsGods, they won't be able to overturn the sky, but it won't be difficult for them to cause some damage near Auspicious Light City. I'm worried that if such a thing really happens, the Commissar will not release the Army of God under pressure and let them come out to clean up the situation. "
Wang Gong thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "Senior brother, do you think the Army of God has colluded with the God of Plague in advance? Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental …"
Xiang Chun said, "We'll only know when we get back."
Wang Gong said, "It will take at least two or three days. I'm afraid we won't be able to make it in time."
Xiang Chun walked out a few steps and looked at the sky with his back facing everyone. He said decisively, "We can make it in time!"
As he spoke, a light rose from his body and slowly rose from the ground, higher and higher.
Xu Ying looked up in surprise and said, "Senior brother, you …"
Xiang Chun looked down at everyone and said, "Junior brothers, I'll take my leave first." After he finished speaking, he turned around and flew towards the distant sky. At first, his speed was rather slow, but then it became faster and faster. After a while, he turned into a ray of light and flew towards the other side of the sky.
