“Xiu’er! Xiu’er, are you alright?!” Yan Qianli was extremely anxious when he saw Yan Xiu collapse to the ground. He knew Yan Xiu’s personality very well.

Unless Yan Xiu was unable to stand any further, with his determination, he will definitely not collapse to the ground.

Yan Qianli wanted to act, he wanted to stop Fang Zhengzhi’s sword because Yan Xiu looked like he was in extreme agony and the agony looked like it originated from the soul.

However, could he stop Fang Zhengzhi?

No!

It was not because he couldn’t stop him but rather because he believed that Fang Zhengzhi would not kill Yan Xiu even though Yan Xiu was in extreme agony now.

“Xiu… sorry, I have let you down…” Dao Xin also collapses to the ground and hugged Yan Xiu tightly. “My selfishness made you suffer, now it’s time for you to be free… That’s right, I have no other reason to continue restraining you.”

“Dao Xin, what are you going to do?” Yan Xiu trembled and stared at Dao Xin, holding onto Dao Xin’s arm tightly with his hand.

“It has been so long and you are still calling me Dao Xin?” Dao Xin started crying and the tears that trickled down his face was like rain, waterfall and also a river.- .c om

This was a sign of extreme sadness but n.o.body knew where this sadness originated from. Was it disappointment, indignance or was it influenced by the tears of the b.l.o.o.d.y Landscape?

“Dao…” Yan Xiu stopped after only saying one word. He sounded hesitant and it was a hesitation that was extremely difficult to comprehend.

At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi’s sword had reached and the silver heavy rain from the sky acc.u.mulated towards his sword rapidly.

Finally, they turned into a spark of silver.

It was a star that was bright enough to light up the entire sky. The star was floating in front of Dao Xin’s throat and was able to end her life if it moved forward for a millimeter.

“I can’t let her die!” At the instant when the stars acc.u.mulated, Yan Xiu’s voice was heard again. She sounded extremely mad after being pressured to her limits.

Boom! A beam of blood radiance shot up.

There was no longer any darkness in that blood radiance. There was only a red color that looked like fresh blood. The extremely cold aura caused the air to almost freeze.

This scene was extremely shocking to Yan Qianli.

“Xiu’er’s Fallen Asura… seems to be resolved?!” Yan Qianli had been learning about the Dao of Asura for his entire life and definitely could see the changes in Yan Xiu.

It was pure red.

That was the sign of the optimal state of the Dao of Asura. There was no longer the darkness of an abyss, or rather, the darkness had been painted red.

“Fallen Asura, resolved?!” Dao Xin evidently trembled and looked in disbelief after hearing what Yan Qianli said.

That was because she had spent so much efforts trying to help Yan Xiu master the last stage of the Dao of Asura but the results were not very promising.

Left with no choice, she could only merge the two completely different skills into one.

As such, Yan Xiu’s Dao of Asura became both black and red. When both forms of powers concentrated on Yan Xiu, her powers were greatly boosted.

However, the situation of a backfire was also more severe.

Of course, it was not difficult for them to suppress the backfire with their medical knowledge but some things could only be cured on the surface level and the root cause was left unaddressed.

However, now…

The aura that Yan Xiu gave off was extremely pure.

There was no longer any darkness in that bright red. The pure Asura was like the supreme killer G.o.d that stood in the sky.

Bam! Just when Dao Xin and Yan Qianli were extremely shocked, the bright red blood radiance turned into a gigantic palm and slapped on Fang Zhengzhi.

This caused Fang Zhengzhi to move back involuntarily for at least five steps.

Moreover, the five footprints on the ground were at least one inch deep and the stones he stepped on turned into powder.

“Senior Meng Tian!” Mu Qingfeng exclaimed.

He did not want to see “Meng Tian” being killed by Dao Xin but he also did not want “Meng Tian” to die or get injured from the battle with Yan Xiu.

It was an ironic thought but it was exactly what Mu Qingfeng was thinking of right now.

Apart from him, the other disciples of the Human Alliance also shared the same thought as “Meng Tian” was their final hope.

“It’s alright.” Fang Zhengzhi waves his hand and stopped Ping Yang from charging towards him. Meanwhile, he gradually handed Yun Qingwu to Ping Yang. “Be careful of the sudden appearance of the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race.”

“Hmm, I know that.” Ping Yang nodded and received Yun Qingwu from Fang Zhengzhi. Then, she quietly moved back to where Yan Qianli and Wu Yuer were standing.

“Yun Qingwu?!”

“It’s really Yun Qingwu?”

“She seemed to have pa.s.sed out? Should we take this opportunity to kill her now?”- .c om

The disciples of the Human Alliance stretched their necks and started a commotion as they saw Yun Qingwu in Ping Yang’s arms.

“Shut up!” Ping Yang roared softly.

“…” The disciples of the Human Alliance looked at each other and wanted to say, ‘who on earth are you?’

However, they did not say that eventually because although Ping Yang was masked with a black face cloth, they could tell that she was closely related to “Meng Tian”.

For such a person…

They were afraid to offend her.

After all, offending her meant offending “Meng Tian”, and the consequences of offending “Meng Tian” was self-explanatory by Dao Hun’s body on the ground.

“That shameless… no, I mean, Senior, is not killing her?” Wu Yuer figured out Ping Yang’s ident.i.ty from her eyes. However, she did not understand why Fang Zhengzhi chose to hand Yun Qingwu over to Ping Yang instead of killing her straight away after he caught her.

“We can’t kill her now.” Ping Yang did not explain any further.

“Oh, I see.” Wu Yuer nodded but was still not satisfied with the answer. She stretched out her hand placed it on Yun Qingwu’s chest before tightening her grip violently. “Hmph, don’t tell me… he is really interested in her?”

Wu Yuer’s voice was so soft that only Ping Yang could hear her.

Her actions were also noticed by Ping Yang. However, instead of stopping her, Ping Yang pinched Yun Qingwu on her arm.

“If he is really interested in her, I will strangle him!” Ping Yang pouted and also looked annoyed.

“Hahaha… who are you planning to strangle?” Wu Yuer laughed while covering her mouth, the slight blush on her face gave her an extremely alluring look.

“I don’t need you to care.” Ping Yang looked at Wu Yuer and a look flashed across her eyes. “From what I know, you are married to that brat in the Northern Mountain Village? Moreover, it is a blessing granted by Auntie Xuelian? Let me warn you, with Sister Yan around, you must be dreaming!”

“Chi Guyan? She is powerful, but unfortunately… she has already turned into a sleeping beauty.” replied Wu Yuer as she rolled her eyes.

“Even so, you won’t stand a chance!”

“Why not?”

“Are you trying to pick a fight?”

“You are just a sage, who do you think you are? I have a few people under me, even if I don’t stand a chance for a one versus one battle, you will not be my opponent if it was a group fight!”

“Really? Did you forget that I am still the Young sect leader of the Ling Yun Tower?”

“You are impressive but you have small b.o.o.bs!”

“…” Ping Yang blushed immediately. She lowered her head and looked at her chest before looking at Wu Yuer with a furious expression.

“Look, the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race are here!” Just as Ping Yang was about to rage, Wu Yuer suddenly pointed behind Ping Yang with a worried look.

“So fast?” Ping Yang turned back instinctively and realized that there was nothing behind her.

Instantly, Ping Yang knew she had fallen for Wu Yuer’s lie.

Just as she was about to slap Wu Yuer, she realized that Wu Yuer was already standing behind Yan Qianli and the Heavenly Oasis Saint with a carefree look.

“Annoying!” Ping Yang was about to continue scolding Wu Yuer when she heard a loud boom. She turned her attention to the location of the sound.

Then, her pet.i.te mouth opened wide.

That was because there was a shadow which was twenty feet tall, glowing in bright red and wearing a blood-red armor.

There was another figure within that shadow.

It was Yan Xiu!

“Erm? Yan Xiu can become so big too?” Ping Yang was evidently shocked because she thought only Fang Zhengzhi liked to do something like this.

Surrounding oneself with Origin Energy so as to increase one’s body size tremendously. Then, the Origin Energy would turn into armor, causing one to look extremely powerful when worn on the body.

However, this was the power of the bloodline.

Yan Xiu also had the power of the bloodline?

It was not very likely.

So what was exactly happening in front of them?

“It’s the transformation into Asura, even I… can’t do this!” Yan Qianli’s voice was heard and he answered Ping Yang’s queries.

“Transformation into Asura? Is it powerful?” Ping Yang asked naively.

“After experiencing life and death, and entering the Asura h.e.l.l to become the Fallen Asura, Xiu’er managed to break through the restraint of the chains and regain the Dao of Asura. He is actually more powerful than me.” Instead of answering Ping Yang, Yan Qianli talked to himself.

“Isn’t this something very normal? Like the Heavenly Oasis Saint, even though he called himself the ”, he only knew how to flee when he had to fight and can’t even defeat me.” Ping Yang blinked her eyes.

“…”

“…”

Yan Qianli’s expression froze. The Heavenly Oasis Saint also had the same expression as him. Both of them looked at each other and saw the speechlessness in each other’s eyes.

What f*cking bad luck!

They had lived for such a long time and finally managed to become a Sage after all the difficulties. Now, they were put down by a 16-year-old girl.

Moreover, Ping Yang was speaking the truth and they could not refute.

“I have been learning Alchemy for my entire life, regarding physical combat… the younger generation is definitely better at that.” The Heavenly Oasis Saint took a deep breath before saying this in a superior tone.

“Dao Hun also likes to practice Alchemy but he is already dead.” Ping Yang took a glance at the dead Dao Hun who was on the ground with an arrogant look.

“…” The Heavenly Oasis Saint’s legs trembled and he almost fell.

Ping Yang did not care about the Heavenly Oasis Saint’s reaction. However, the anger she had because of Wu Yuer had vanished instantly.

She showed a happy expression again.

“Go… Senior Meng Tian!”

…

Fang Zhengzhi did not hear the commotion between Ping Yang, Wu Yuer and the others. Or rather, he would have pretended that he did not hear it even if he really did.

After all, he had more important things to do now.

Yan Xiu suddenly broke through his restraints and grew immensely in power. This was something worth celebrating but it did not come at the right time. If this had happened after Dao Xin was killed, it would have been perfect.

However, how could things be perfect in this world?

Even the scriptures obtained after the Journey to the West had missing pages. Therefore, Fang Zhengzhi did not have very high expectations.

However, the trouble came eventually.

Yan Xiu was protecting Dao Xin with his life. This was what troubled him.

With Yan Xiu’s usual powers, he could not match up to Fang Zhengzhi. However, if Yan Xiu turned into an Asura, he would be almost on par with Fang Zhengzhi.

In such a situation, Fang Zhengzhi needed time to kill Dao Xin without injuring Yan Xiu.

Fang Zhengzhi tried to get Yan Xiu away from Dao Xin.

However, Yan Xiu was Yan Xiu after all.

He was not moved at all and was determined to stay beside Dao Xin to protect her. Like a statue of the Demon G.o.d of Asura, he refused to take a step away from Dao Xin regardless of how hard Fang Zhengzhi had tried.

“Xiu, you don’t want me to die, but you… have never had me in your heart…” Dao Xin sat on the ground in pain and mumbled to herself, “It has been so long… I still can’t get a place in your heart, is this really my destiny?”

“People say that their destiny is decided by themselves. For all these years, I always thought that I have gotten hold of my own destiny but today I finally realized…”

“Perhaps our destinies are still pre-destined.”

“Xiu… I always wanted to tell you about my story but you never asked about it. I don’t understand, I really don’t understand…”

“I know my own problems, I know why I am like this, I can see the pain you are going through, I can see everything about you, your entire life, I can…

“…”

“Like real!”

A cold roar was heard halfway through Dao Xin’s sentence and a beam of sword radiance went around Yan Xiu who was standing in front of Dao Xin.

The sword radiance went underneath Yan Xiu’s armpit.

It traveled at a very fast speed.

Although Yan Xiu saw it, he could not stop it.

Boom! The sword radiance hit Dao Xin and the force threw her in the air in a parabolic path before she landed heavily on the ground again.
