Chapter 1364 - 868: Returning Horse, Han Spear

Is it time to make an end?

Heh,

The Twin Divine Trees let out a cold laugh, sneering at this.

The two sides have been fighting for nearly a thousand years, so they naturally understand each other very well.

As for the words of the Youhan Tree, the Twin Divine Trees didn’t believe a single word.

The malice and deceit of the Cold Tree are unimaginable to ordinary creatures.

Even if the Youhan Tree seemed frenzied and hysterical, the Twin Divine Trees would regard it as an act.

Not to mention, the Cold Tree was now letting out bursts of sinister laughter.

Every word and deed of the Cold Tree merely served its schemes and plots.

The two were closely entwined, and their way of communication was particularly unique.

The Twin Divine Trees could faintly feel the Cold Tree harboring ill intentions, with ulterior motives.

As for what this so-called "end" really was...

"Hmm?" The Divine Tree only felt its body tighten, as the Cold Branch’s force suddenly increased!

Obviously, the Youhan Tree had channeled its main force into this branch!

The Twin Divine Trees reacted extremely quickly, also summoning their main power, surging towards the Divine Tree branch at the South Suburb Bottomless.

In an instant, both sides began a "military escalation," continuously raising the intensity of their branches.

The voice of the Divine Tree was angry: "You!?"

The Cold Tree let out a sinister laugh: "Heh heh~"

Amidst the Cold Tree’s laughter, in countless Bottomless Pits within the Great Xia, a Cold Wood would occasionally intensify.

It’s undeniable that the attacking side is always the one holding the initiative.

Under the premise of the Youhan Realm invading the Twin Tree Realm, as the defensive party being invaded, the Twin Divine Trees were always the ones passively adjusting.

No matter how quickly the Twin Divine Trees reacted, there was always a time lag.

The Divine Tree immediately realized that many Cold Branches increasing strength within the Bottomless Pits were just a feint.

The Cold Tree was merely trying to distract the Divine Tree.

But the problem is, even if it saw through the Cold Tree’s strategies, the Twin Divine Trees couldn’t just ignore it!

Rather than being a conspiracy, it’s more of an overt plot.

Yes, I’m just leading you by the nose!

What can you do?

Will you follow?

Won’t follow?

Then I’ll tear down the defenses built by the Human Race!

Guess what’s behind the Bottomless Gate?

Even if I clearly tell you there’s no Youhan Corps behind the Bottomless Gate, do you dare to bet?

No, you dare not.

Even if there’s indeed no corps, dismantling those ridiculous defenses and spreading Cold Qi across the Great Xia is also a great way to invade, right?

"Crack!"

"Creak..." the branches of the two trees entangled and writhed.

As the two sides continued their struggle, the Twin Divine Trees suddenly realized that at some point, the branch within the Ancient Pine Tower South Suburb Bottomless Pit had already been entangled by the Cold Tree.

It should be known that it was always the Spirit Branches restraining the Cold Branches, preventing them from invading the world.

And now it was the reverse?

The Divine Tree urgently increased its power, trying to counteract, but the Cold Tree was also constantly strengthening.

Even more deadly, within thousands of Bottomless Pits in Great Xia, each Cold Tree continued to change repeatedly, strongly pulling at the Twin Divine Trees’ attention.

The so-called "change" was not merely the Cold Branch suddenly increasing strength; in some cases, the energy was rapidly weakening?

The Divine Tree instinctively tightened around the frail Cold Branch and, almost instantly, broke the Cold Tree branch!

Strangely, this particular Cold Tree branch didn’t show any intention of resisting, retreating its Cold Tree Stump right back into the Bottomless Gate.

It retreated?!

This Cold Tree actually retreated?

If it were usual times, the Divine Tree would consider this a great gift, but at this moment...

What is the Youhan Tree doing? Conserving power?

Although the Cold Tree retreated, as the defender, the Divine Tree dared not retreat!

At least not before the people of the Divine Wood Pavilion constructed the Spiritual Energy Carpet, the Divine Tree absolutely could not retreat.

"Hiss~"

"Creak creak." From the Bottomless within the South Suburb, there came an eerie sound from the hollow tree stump.

A male of the Cold Race, cloaked in an illusory cape, his face shrouded in ghostly shadows, crawled out from the Bottomless Gate.

minutes ago.

Within the Second Bottomless Abyss at Xiangcha City.

The Jade Gourd kept shrinking, absorbing everything within the Bottomless Abyss, all surging into the master’s palm.

Du Yu endured the heart-pounding feeling, allowing the Gourd Jade Wall to pass through his body.

This was thanks to Master Qing’s spell; otherwise, if it had been anyone else, Du Yu would have unsheathed a butcher’s knife!

Slowly, Yang Qingqing pressed the Jade Gourd into the left side of her chest.

A surge of terrifying energy coursed through, causing her body to tremble slightly, a faint, soft moan escaping her nose: "Mmm~"

Du Yu: "..."

As he was at a loss, a tall figure drifted over from the other side.

A girl cloaked in a pristine white cape, her aura noble and holy, truly deserving of the title "Shen Meng Nan," completely at odds with the filthy Bottomless Abyss.

"Master Qing." The girl softly called.

Yang Qingqing continued to keep her eyes closed, carefully feeling the Ancient Spiritual Artifact·Jade Gourd.

However, she released the grip on Du Yu’s arm, saying, "Go and bid farewell."

"Thank you, Master Qing." Li Mengnan softly said, holding Du Yu’s wrist and leading him to the side.

The unappealing part was that the Cold Trees had been absorbed by the Jade Gourd, leaving the Bottomless Abyss empty, with no cover for the two.

"Succeeded." Li Mengnan said as she led Du Yu a dozen meters away, "The senior siblings are impressive."

"Mm." Du Yu nodded in agreement.

Li Mengnan stopped and softly said, "I’m going with Master Feng to cultivate, at sea, with the Sea of Sorrow and them."

"How are the results?" Du Yu raised his hand, gently brushing aside the hair beside the girl’s forehead.

Little Mengnan was really becoming more like a goddess.

She no longer tied her hair in a ponytail as before but chose to let her long black hair flow.

The change in hairstyle seemed to... seemed to have happened after that kiss under the Huangtu Temple.

"Very good." Li Mengnan said with a smile in her eyes, "I feel like it won’t be long before I get promoted."

Du Yu was a bit surprised: "So soon?"

"Isn’t it? We’ve been apart for a long time." Li Mengnan playfully rolled her eyes at Du Yu, "When the two Seas of Sorrow battled the great ocean, the Wind Demon Breath around was very dense.

Not long ago, Master Feng deliberately persuaded the Saint of the Sea of Sorrow to break the contract with the Sea of Sorrow, allowing the Saint to sign a contract with me once.

That terrifying Wind Demon Breath was just..."

Recalling that experience, Li Mengnan’s eyes were full of admiration. Clearly, having the Supreme enter her body benefited her immensely.

In fact, Du Yu had also done something similar.

It was a few months ago, on Ashen Continent at Dragon Ship Flower Island, when the Saint of Flowing Fire entered his body, directly helping Du Yu open the promotion window.

Du Yu suddenly realized that maybe he could use this method to help Master Qing open the promotion window?

"Naughty guy." Li Mengnan leaned forward, pressing her forehead against Du Yu’s, "Say goodbye now, don’t think about others."

"Mm." Du Yu came back to his senses and immediately raised his hands to cup the girl’s face.

Seeing such an action, Little Fen Yang immediately exclaimed: "Ah! Niuniu, go to sleep! Don’t watch!"

"Hmm, sleeping, sleeping." Kui Chou mumbled, melding into the Yongquan Acupoint at the sole of Du Yu’s foot, "Who’s even interested in peeking, anyway."

Flowing Fire was very mindful, merging into the Life Gate Acupoint at Du Yu’s back, closing the door, isolating from the world.

Only Little Fen Yang continued to secretly peek, until the last moment, she covered her big eyes: "Oh, so shy~"

Saying that, the little creature merged into the Baihui Acupoint at the top of Du Yu’s head.

So shy, huh?

Shen Mengnan should think so too.

Her cheeks were flushed red, but her hands tightly embraced Du Yu, passionately kissing back.

The state was as if she wanted to pour out all the longing accumulated over two months.

For a long time, the girl’s forehead rested against Du Yu’s, gently gasping: "In the days I’m not around, take good care of yourself."

"Mm."

Li Mengnan whispered softly: "Listen to Master Qing, don’t be anxious, don’t be impulsive, give yourself more time, and... also give me some more time."

Evidently, the girl was confident she could help Du Yu, help this world.

"For sure." Du Yu replied solemnly.

Hearing Du Yu’s promise, Li Mengnan was very happy. She knew well that anything Du Yu promised, he would strive to uphold and accomplish.

"So... so I’ll go then?" Li Mengnan gently rubbed her forehead against Du Yu’s.

This time, Du Yu didn’t respond again.

Taking a deep breath, Li Mengnan lowered her head, took a step forward, and brushed past Du Yu.

Until the next time we meet, it would be when we both become emperors.

Thinking about it carefully, it should come quickly, not too hard to bear.

"Xiaofeng stays." A cold voice came from afar.

In the light of the Spiritual Energy Carpet, Yang Qingqing looked towards Feng and Jian, "Your combination works well, act together from now on."

"Yes!"

"Yes." Fu Jianzhou and Jiang Feng had no objections.

Both of them were quite looking forward to it; they didn’t expect that the combination of their Spiritual Artifacts would produce such a stunning chemical reaction.

"Goodbye, Master Qing." Li Mengnan spoke her farewell, while not far, Feng Wuheng had already torn open a spatial rift.

Yang Qingqing nodded gently, reminding: "Listen to Elder Feng, don’t be capricious."

"Mm-hmm." Li Mengnan’s smile was somewhat forced as she waved goodbye to everyone.

She walked backward, looking into the distance.

The youth’s light red Eyes of Burning Sun were particularly bright in the dim Bottomless Pit.

Li Mengnan averted her gaze, not daring to look too much, fearing she couldn’t resist stopping.

Separation of a month and a half shouldn’t be so hard.

However, Du Yu’s situation was too unique, making it really hard to determine whether tomorrow or an accident would come for him first.

Li Mengnan also couldn’t be sure which seemingly ordinary farewell would become the last.

I hope he can keep his promise and take care of himself.

The tall figure of the girl eventually merged into the spatial rift.

"Puff~" Feng Wuheng’s figure shattered, dissipating with the wind.

The spatial rift quietly closed, and the Bottomless Pit plunged into silence.

Everyone quietly watched the Spiritual Energy Carpet, and after a few seconds, Yang Qingqing spoke: "Let’s go, we’re going back..."

Yang Qingqing’s words abruptly stopped upon seeing several withered branches rushing over, landing on the shoulders of several people simultaneously.

"Ancient Pine Tower!"

"Ancient Pine Tower South Suburb Bottomless! Cold Beast Legion!" The sudden words made Du Yu’s mind buzz.

Everyone’s attention was on the western continent, the Demon Spirit Squad’s defense focus was on the western continent!

Yet the Youhan Corps suddenly stormed out of the eastern continent, within Great Xia’s inland?

Jiang Feng had still been immersed in the joy of fighting the Cold Tree, but upon hearing this, her expression instantly turned rigid.

Ancient Pine Tower?

That place wasn’t just Du Yu’s hometown!

Especially for Jiang Feng, that city meant so much!

At 16, she had already lost one hometown.

It was under the invasion of the Youhan Realm that a Bottomless Abyss swallowed everything she had.

Now, with Master Qing’s help, she had gathered the courage and had a new home.

Although Jiang Feng didn’t often go back, that place was her root, her belonging.

On the day of moving to the new residence, everyone from the sect was there to help heal the wounds of her youth, aiding her in her spiritual redemption.

But now...

Will the Cold Tree again destroy everything?

"Squeak!" The sound of the spatial rift opening was exceptionally piercing.

Jiang Feng suddenly turned her eyes to see Du Yu already darting into the rift, and she instantly dashed forward.

Fu Jianzhou exclaimed: "Master Qing?"

"Leave a clone to negotiate with the Divine Tree, go!" Yang Qingqing’s figure swept across the pitch-dark bottomless area, flying directly into the spatial rift.

"Yes!" Fu Jianzhou took large strides forward, leaving behind a Rotten Wood Body in place.
