"Master Du Chen... is dead?!"
In that instant, all the powerful figures who had arrived at the scene were stunned.
This high monk from the West Desert Buddha Land, though appearing young, was actually an enlightened high monk.
Whether it was in the first, second, or third trials of the Heart Inquiry Bamboo Forest, his performance was astonishingly exceptional.
This ti, Master Du Chen also arrived here first, and upon sensing that the Emperor’s opportunity was seized by Zhou Youwei, he decisively took action.
The principle of compassion in Buddhism seed like nothing but nonsense to Master Du Chen.
In Master Du Chen’s eyes, there seed to be only that Emperor’s opportunity.
And the outco was extrely tragic; the sudden burst of power from Zhou Youwei’s body crushed Master Du Chen to dust almost instantly.
"How could this be?!"
The incoming group was taken aback when they witnessed that scene.
Buzz————
At this mont, a golden light erged in the void. It was a golden Shariputra, and sitting cross-legged on it was a small golden figure, none other than Master Du Chen.
Though his physical body was destroyed, his Divine Soul had not perished!
At this mont, Master Du Chen’s Divine Soul looked equally shocked, clearly not expecting such an outco.
Bang!
Before everyone could react, the terrifying power beside Zhou Youwei erupted again, overwhelming Master Du Chen’s Divine Soul.
"This is bad!"
Master Du Chen’s expression changed drastically, and the golden Shariputra imdiately transford into a stream of light, flying into the distance.
Bang————
It hadn’t flown far before there was an explosion, and the golden Shariputra burst apart.
Master Du Chen was thoroughly dead this ti.
Seeing that scene, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
The most crucial part was that Zhou Youwei, who had casually slain Master Du Chen, appeared calm, exuding an indifference that seed beyond the mortal realm, like a Supre Slaughter God tearing through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
"What’s going on..."
Noticing the distinctly different aura surrounding Zhou Youwei, the young second senior brother from the Immortal King Hall’s expression changed.
"Could it be... possession?" Chu Jiangqiu’s brows furrowed.
Instinctively, Chu Jiangqiu looked at Ye Xuan, noticing the complexity on his face.
Buzz————
A domineering aura surrounded Zhou Youwei, her gaze lightly shifting to Ye Xuan.
Her expression was equally complex.
But in the next mont, she looked away.
Zhou Youwei began to walk away.
The people blocking her path instinctively stepped aside.
Only Ye Xuan remained standing there.
Ye Xuan, seeing the transformation in Zhou Youwei, said hoarsely, "Youwei..."
Zhou Youwei did not look at Ye Xuan.
The next mont, they passed by each other.
At that mont, it felt as if everything in the world had co to a standstill.
As they brushed past each other.
In that instant, Zhou Youwei’s beautiful eyes softened, and her red lips parted to leave a final, gentle whisper: "May you be safe."
Ye Xuan reached out, attempting to grab Zhou Youwei’s delicate hand, but grasped at thin air.
Drip.
A single, crystalline tear dropped onto the clouds, quickly evaporating into nothingness.
Looking back, there was only emptiness.
Zhou Youwei was gone.
Ye Xuan’s heart clenched tightly, a sense of unprecedented loss suddenly overwhelming him.
He had a vague premonition.
The day they et again would be far, far away!
"Youwei!"
Ye Xuan suddenly turned around, roaring.
By now, Zhou Youwei had already crossed the three trials, erging from that abyss.
"Kill!"
Seeing Zhou Youwei appear, the Demon King of the Ancient Demon Country attacked without a word.
Boom boom boom————
All fell dead.
Zhou Youwei was like an unreachable Empress, overlooking All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds with unparalleled dominance and majesty.
No one could stop her.
Even the most powerful Heavenly Eagle Demon King fell instantly.
Fortunately, Zhou Youwei’s attacks were indiscriminate, and she showed no intention of continuing, allowing these beings to barely escape with their lives, though their cultivation was entirely dissipated, leaving only their Divine Souls struggling to survive.
Amid the killing, Zhou Youwei naturally heard the distant roar.
But she did not turn back.
Yet, for so reason, an indescribable sorrow welled up inside her, causing tears to fall like a broken string of beads.
This farewell might an never eting again.
"Gone."
Zhou Youwei whispered softly.
And in the next instant, she vanished into thin air.
When Ye Xuan appeared then, he could no longer find her.
Regret and frustration filled his heart.
Ye Xuan’s face turned pale, muttering to himself, "Ye Xuan, you should have known better, why still take such a risky step..."
"Since you know deep within her soul resides an existence even you can’t fathom, why bring her here, seeking this so-called Emperor’s opportunity."
"There was a reason you were betrayed by those two back then..."
Ye Xuan slowly closed his eyes, taking a deep breath.
However, when he opened his eyes again, he was calm.
This sudden change indeed disrupted his plan.
But it wasn’t entirely unforeseen.
When deciding to bring Youwei to seize the Emperor’s opportunity, he had such thoughts in mind.
He knew it was dangerous, but he also hoped Youwei could suppress that existence through this.
And now, the outco showed he had failed.
The presence within Youwei had awakened.
And Youwei had naturally departed from him.
"It turns out, I really did like her."
Ye Xuan had a hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth.
Scenes with Youwei continually flashed in his mind.
This kind-hearted yet stubborn girl.
To be fair.
When his Emperor Soul had not yet awakened, Ye Xuan’s feelings for Youwei were driven more by instinct, a primal urge from his being.
Before his Emperor Soul’s awakening, he was considered a fool, relying on Zhou Youwei alone in the Emperor Immortal Sect.
Even though Zhou Youwei rely wanted to use her engagent with Ye Xuan to avoid a marriage alliance with the Luotian Sacred Land, after their marriage, Zhou Youwei dutifully fulfilled her role as a wife.
Even when Ye Xuan’s Emperor Soul hadn’t awakened, he understood this.
Instinctively, Zhou Youwei was his Daoist couple, his only wife.
And with the awakening of his Emperor Soul, the completion of his Three Souls, Ye Xuan began to sense naturally.
Once everything beca natural, reasoning was no longer necessary.
For Ye Xuan, who had lived through countless ages, what had he not encountered?
Logically, such events should not faze him.
Yet so feelings defy logic.
Just like Ye Xuan whispering to himself.
It turns out, he really did like her.
In her, there was all the world’s beauty.
This, in itself, was beautiful.
There was a foreseeing that when Youwei awakened, it would be their farewell.
When imagining that mont, he never thought he would feel this reluctant.
But when the mont ca.
It was still painful.
