Chapter 366: The Price For Breaking Promise

[Congratulations! Using the Ancestral Spirit Formation Diagram, you led your clansmen to kill a Divinity Transformation stage Wu Clan Elder and repel two other Wu Clan Elders. Everyone in the Azure Cloud region border city was shocked by your heaven-shattering spear strike. Your death was spectacular and heroic. Your descendants are thrilled for you and express boundless respect towards you.]

[Gained Family Will: 15]

[Current Family Will: 45]

[Congratulations, your family has obtained spoils of war—]

[The near-death Wu Clan Elder, Moon God · Bai Yue. Along with everything she carries on her person.]

At this moment.

Bai Yue lay on the ground. Beneath her were ice crystals formed by laws, but the power of laws on her body was completely gone.

No one knew what she had experienced while dodging that spear strike. She had fled frantically, burned through everything, until the very end when she had even consumed all the power in her body, and even her life force and Spirit!

The red moon in the sky began to disappear. The harsh winter had passed, the long night vanished, and a streak of white flashed across the sky.

”So... this is my calamity, and also the price for breaking my promise.”

Lying on the ground, Bai Yue watched all this, and she remembered thirty thousand years ago.

That time, she was defeated in the Azure Dynasty by the disciple of the Heavenly Light Sect. Just like this time, she begged the Heavenly Light Sectʼs disciple for mercy; just like this time, she shouted in terror. Fortunately, that disciple of the Heavenly Light Sect spared her life.

Thirty thousand years had passed, and she had already forgotten the vow she made back then. Now, that vow had unexpectedly been brought up again.

She had said that if she ever stepped onto the land of the Azure Dynasty again in this life, she would not meet a peaceful end, her Spirit would be annihilated, and she would never enter reincarnation in this life.

”If only... I hadnʼt broken my vow, how good would that have been?”

Leaving behind a final sigh, Bai Yue surprisingly closed her eyes with a hint of relief.

At this moment, she died completely. The members of the Li family had already gathered beside the Moon God, silently taking away the shattered Lunar Radiance Wheel from behind her. The two Divinity Transformation stage experts nearby observed the Moon Godʼs state in death. Seeing her body without even a single wound, yet dead in such a manner, a look of shock flashed in both their eyes.

”Under the Li family ancestorʼs spear strike, she didnʼt dare retaliate; she could only defend. Because the moment she counter-attacked and left the slightest opening, she would have been killed by the Li family ancestor.”

Wang Jinhu, truly worthy of being an expert, immediately saw the crux of the matter. ”She could only flee. The Li family ancestor didnʼt even touch her. All her power was spent on defense and escape, until even her Spirit was exhausted.”

As he spoke, even he felt somewhat afraid. He couldnʼt imagine just how terrified the Moon God must have been of that spear strike at that moment, to flee until her power and Spirit were exhausted without even realizing it.

”Gulp.”

Daoist Shanchen swallowed hard. He had never imagined there could be such an aggrieved way to die—fleeing until oneʼs strength was utterly depleted. But this also meant that the spear strike must have been so powerful that the Moon God was completely unable to resist, leading to such a result.

Just as everyone was dealing with the Moon Godʼs corpse.

Everyone was suddenly startled, looking in unison towards the depths of the Endless Forest—the direction of the Divine Bird Totem!

As the sun gradually began to rise.

”Scree!”

A firebird, blazing with flames, appeared in the sky, replacing the sun. It cried out in the heavens, its voice somewhat mournful and shrill.

Beneath these fierce flames, a pillar of dark light pierced straight through the clouds and sky, rippling outwards in all directions above the clouds.

Everyone watched this scene in shock.

The sky was shrouded in darkness, seeming as if it would devour heaven and earth. This terrifying sight lasted for the time it takes an incense stick to burn. Finally, the sky above the Endless Forest returned to brightness, and the firebird also vanished. No one knew what had happened.

”Itʼs... Itʼs Masterʼs aura.”

Gazing at this nearly world-destroying scene, Li Yaoqing murmured. The members of the Li family looked at each other; everyone in the Li family knew that Li Yaoqingʼs master was the Demon Lord of the Thunderfire Demon Cave. No one knew how long the Demon Lord Fang Linglong had hidden in the Demon Cave or how long she had been treating her injuries.

Li Yaoqing had treated the Demon Lord for over a hundred years, yet still with very little effect.

No one knew the Demon Lordʼs exact power level; Li Yaoqing had once roughly guessed it might be the Divinity Transformation stage. Over these years, the Li family had also continuously collected materials to help the Demon Lord, repaying the kindness the Demon Lord had shown the Li family. This time, they had originally wanted to ask the Demon Lord for help, but her figure was never seen.

Just as the Li family members were pondering why such a phenomenon would occur within the Endless Forest, and whether it was related to the Demon Lord.

A streak of black light flashed across the sky, landing not far from them.

Shortly after.

The figure of Demon Lord Fang Linglong came into view. Smiling, she walked step by step towards the Li family members. Seeing the stunned expressions on the Li family members, she looked at Li Yaoqing and said, feigning anger, ”What are you still standing there stunned for after seeing your master? Still not coming over to pay respects?”

The members of the Li family looked at each other again.

At this moment, Li Yaoqing had already walked towards Fang Linglong.

Just as the Li family members confirmed that Fang Linglong had also been fighting in the Endless Forest, guessing that she had been helping the Li family through other means, and immediately bowed towards Fang Linglong in thanks, and just as Li Yaoqing was about to kowtow to her master, As they were raising their heads.

Hmm?

Why was the world spinning?

No, wait...

”Master, are you alright? How did you fall?!?!”

”Lord Demon Lord???”

”Quick, quick, quick, Yaoqing, quickly take your master back to heal!”
