Chapter 564: Chapter 469 Predetermined Cause and Effect + Chapter 470 Void Demon Worm_2

He failed to see Su Pengju’s figure; he only saw a cold, long sword emitting a faint glow.

At the same time, what he saw was the distant battlefield, filled with murderous aura.

His eyes suddenly widened, and in those final moments, he saw the Heavenly Wolf General Wu Qi, bisected, and the five thousand Heavenly Wolf Riders, not far from death.

He also saw three "companions," a man and two women, all with complete Divine Will, turning their heads to look at him.

Their gazes intersected.

Jin Ling’s face betrayed disbelief, and his eyes were filled with regret.

"How could this be..."

The world started spinning, and his thoughts gradually ceased.

When Jin Ling’s head flew off, his eyes were still open.

...

"He could have escaped."

Yan Bing sighed.

After all, they had come here together as "companions."

Such a meaningless death.

Although Yan Bing always appeared cool and somewhat cruel, her heart was actually quite delicate and sentimental.

In this regard, Fang Sheng was stronger; she was rather heartless.

To people who were not important, whether they lived or died, it didn’t matter to her.

Using a phrase from the Buddhist Sect, "What was sown in the past, now has become the fruit."

Everything is one’s own choice.

No one else to blame.

"He really had a chance to escape and not meet his death. Even if he hadn’t been so engrossed in attacking the enemy, if he had paid more attention to the Battle Formation, he wouldn’t have recklessly gone after Li Nantian."

A stage of accomplishment had been reached.

That was the death of an enemy general.

But if one didn’t realize an enemy general had fallen,

and failed to sense the change in the Subduing Demon Token, they would miss the best chance to escape.

Even if he had just tried to save himself and stay close to his own side, just preserving his life for the moment, the situation would have been very different.

There were many choices that could have led to survival.

But he chose none.

He just blindly went all the way down the dark path.

When Jin Ling exhausted a large amount of Vitality and destroyed his own life to exchange for a Spirit Sword, he became extremely weak.

During the two-on-one attack, his body and spirit weakened, undeniably exposing his underbelly.

In front of the Cloud Water Sect disciple Su Pengju, becoming weak spelled a certain doom.

Jin Ling knew this himself,

he was just hoping against the odds.

"Turns out, he didn’t win the bet."

Fang Sheng shook her head and smiled.

She stopped paying attention to the distance and quietly raised her guard, ready to counter a sudden invisible attack from Su Pengju hiding in the void.

That Cloud Water Sect disciple, when not attacking, was indeed very tricky to deal with.

But now that the three of themselves were together, as long as he didn’t wish to die, he wouldn’t act recklessly.

"This battle has already been won."

Fang Sheng said this with dimples showing on her baby-faced cheeks.

The Heavenly Wolf Riders, without their main leader, were easily defeated.

The fifty thousand infantry, having lost their backbone, began to get restless. The formation moved backwards, clearly seeing the bad situation and preparing to retreat.

But in front of cavalry, infantry inherently held a disadvantage.

At this moment, whether they retreated or not, as long as they didn’t surrender, they could suffer a great defeat at any moment and then collapse.

Fang Sheng moved as swiftly as lightning, executing the Spirit Return, Eight Swords with fluid grace.

She felt that her level of swordsmanship was improving, her Cultivation advancing crazily.

Not only was Fang Sheng killing with rapture, preparing to enjoy the fruits of victory,

Yan Bing too started fighting with wide, sweeping movements, the Sun and Moon Dual Wheel in her hands raising a whirl of gold and silver light, roaring back and forth, slaying Heavenly Wolf Riders in droves, still charging at the forefront.

Completely forgetting the original intention of maintaining formation and protecting Zhou Ping’an.

"Something’s wrong!"

A stabbing pain suddenly struck the area between Zhou Ping’an’s eyebrows.

A feeling of immense danger surged in his heart.

With a flash of his body, he sidestepped three feet, and in an instant, his long blade spun a circle around him.

But he didn’t hit anything.

The crisis persisted.

In his mind, an image of a Red Lotus shattered silently, with Karmic Fire flickering.

"Lotus Shadow Replacement? Was it a Spiritual Attack?"

Zhou Ping’an was furious in his heart.

He felt a dizzy spell, as if struck by a hammer, and his Heart Fire erupted.

Boom...

The Lifebound Red Lotus he had visualized for so long suddenly bloomed wildly.

Blazing Karmic Fires swept towards all directions like a tidal wave.

Soul Power integrated into his flesh, all emotions vanished in an instant, leaving only his eyes cold and indifferent, like a high and lofty Heavenly God.

His eyes shooting blood-red light, piercing three feet outward, illuminating everything.

He saw Yan Bing and Fang Sheng not far from him standing there dazed and bewildered, and at the same time, a semi-transparent long arrow pierced into the back of each of their heads.

And on Yan Bing’s body, Crown Prince Ying Shen Yu, who always seemed obliviously asleep and unaware of danger, now had his eyes open, glinting with dark, ghostly light.

At his brow, there seemed to be a flicker of an almost imperceptible light and shadow.

The most outrageous thing was.

Zhou Ping’an then realized, the three of them just now rushing towards the half-ruined five thousand Heavenly Wolf Riders and the spree of slaughter that followed, were all just illusions.

Right from the start, they had stayed in place without moving.

Merely holding their weapons high, their bodies rigid.

Those semi-transparent long arrows, when exactly they had been shot into the two women’s Sea of Consciousness, he didn’t know.

And the Death Replacement Lotus Shadow in his own Sea of Consciousness, now half-wasted, was about to collapse any second.

Clearly, he, like the two women, had been hit by a shot from that long arrow.

"Not harming the body, only the Soul? This kind of Spiritual Attack..."
