"Master, what should we do now?"
"Qian Renxue is simply too powerful—the army is completely useless in front of her!"
Inside the Heaven Dou Palace, Xue Beng had lost all of his earlier composure and arrogance.
He never imagined that a god’s influence on the battlefield could be this overwhelming. The Star Luo Empire was basically crushed by Qian Renxue alone.
With the Star Luo Empire destroyed, Xue Beng was terrified.
He knew that if even the Star Luo Empire couldn’t withstand Qian Renxue, then the Heaven Dou Empire would certainly be powerless to resist her as well.
So Xue Beng summoned Yu Xiaogang, hoping Yu Xiaogang’s intelligence could help him think of a solution.
"Your Majesty, the problem facing Heaven Dou right now is that no one can stop Qian Renxue!"
"With that in mind, any solution is pointless!"
Yu Xiaogang looked at Xue Beng and answered in a low voice.
Honestly, he hadn’t wanted to co. But he was once a soul master of the Heaven Dou Empire, and Xue Beng had always respected him.
So after Xue Beng repeatedly invited him, Yu Xiaogang still ca.
However, Yu Xiaogang clearly hadn’t co with any solutions—he was here to tell Xue Beng to prepare himself: "Your Majesty, any resistance now is futile and will only result in more needless casualties!"
"Xiao San already knows about Qian Renxue, and he has already made so plans. For now, our top priority is survival!"
Yu Xiaogang also revealed a bit about Tang San.
"Teacher, he already knows?"
"That’s great!"
Xue Beng, whose expression had been grim when he heard Yu Xiaogang’s words, imdiately cheered up upon hearing that Tang San was already aware of Qian Renxue.
To him, as long as Tang San knew, everything could be resolved.
"Your Majesty..."
Seeing Xue Beng’s excitent, Yu Xiaogang could only regretfully tell him that even if Xiao San knew about Qian Renxue, he couldn’t help the Heaven Dou Empire for the ti being.
Everything would have to wait until Oscar and Ning Rongrong finished their god trials.
"Then... what about the Heaven Dou Empire?"
Xue Beng imdiately panicked.
"If there’s truly no other way, then surrender."
"But even if Your Majesty surrenders, Qian Renxue probably won’t let the Heaven Dou imperial clan off. Your best option is to go into hiding!"
"If Xiao San’s plan succeeds, it might help Your Majesty rebuild Heaven Dou!"
"If Xiao San’s plan fails..."
Yu Xiaogang didn’t say what would happen if it failed. The outco was already obvious, and Xue Beng understood too.
"No... that can’t be..."
"How could it co to this..."
"The Heaven Dou Empire must not fall in my hands, absolutely not!"
Hearing this, Xue Beng beca even more flustered. He couldn’t accept such a result.
"Ah, Your Majesty, please think it over."
Yu Xiaogang looked at Xue Beng, sighed, and then left.
Qian Renxue could attack at any mont—he didn’t dare stay in the Heaven Dou Empire any longer.
Judging by Qian Renxue’s ruthless killing of Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, if he showed up in front of Qian Renxue now, he’d definitely die a terrible death.
"Master..."
"Master, don’t go—there must be another way..."
Xue Beng tried to call out to Yu Xiaogang, but Yu Xiaogang didn’t stop at all and quickly left.
"Damn it!"
"Damn it!"
"How hateful!"
"I’m not willing to accept this..."
Watching Yu Xiaogang leave, Xue Beng collapsed onto the ground, completely lost and helpless.
He couldn’t accept this reality.
He had sacrificed so much to beco the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire.
He’d pretended to be a wastrel, shalessly begged Tang San to accept him as a disciple. Do you know how humiliating it was for him to call soone younger than himself "teacher"?
He’d once felt quite pleased with himself for his decision, proud for a long ti.
But now, with everything he had about to slip away, Xue Beng suddenly rembered the humiliation he felt when he apprenticed himself to Tang San.
Right after that, Xue Beng couldn’t control his thoughts from drifting to Qian Renxue’s words, and he grew even more dissatisfied with Tang San.
If Tang San hadn’t stopped him back then, he would have already led the Heaven Dou Empire to unify the continent.
Even if Qian Renxue had regained her godly power, she wouldn’t have had any reason to attack Heaven Dou.
It was all Tang San’s fault.
"It’s all teacher’s fault!"
Xue Beng gritted his teeth and muttered under his breath.
But Xue Beng also knew he couldn’t say more—he quickly suppressed his dissatisfaction with Tang San.
He understood: it was ti for him to make a decision—should the Heaven Dou Empire surrender, or should he lead the royal family into hiding and wait for Tang San to act?
"...Teacher, your disciple believes you can do it!"
In the end, Xue Beng still chose to trust Tang San. He prepared to go into hiding when the Spirit Empire attacked.
Because apart from that, he couldn’t think of any way to resist Qian Renxue.
As for surrendering and hoping Qian Renxue would spare his life out of rcy?
Xue Beng didn’t dare hope for that!
Qian Renxue hadn’t even given the Star Luo Emperor a chance to surrender—she just wiped them out.
He understood the reason too: back when the Spirit Empire was defeated, it was because they tried to give the two empires a chance to surrender first, which led to their downfall.
...
Buzz—
Qian Renxue’s figure appeared silently above Clear Sky Sect.
Between Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Clear Sky Sect, and Tang Sect, Qian Renxue chose to co to Clear Sky Sect first.
Because she knew Tang San’s parents were here—ever since the Spirit Empire’s defeat, Tang Hao and his wife had returned to Clear Sky Sect.
Qian Renxue’s hatred for Tang San was the deepest. So, the first people she wanted to take revenge on were Tang San’s parents, not the other Shrek Seven Devils.
After all, Qian Renxue had no idea that Oscar and Ning Rongrong were undergoing their god trials at that mont.
"Divine Skill: Angel’s Vengeance!"
Buzz—
The mont she appeared above Clear Sky Sect, Qian Renxue didn’t say a word and directly unleashed a divine skill.
Instantly, the sky above Clear Sky Sect darkened, and countless teors wreathed in black flas began to rain down.
"Oh no..."
"It’s Qian Renxue..."
"Everyone, run!"
...
Only when the teors struck did the people of Clear Sky Sect realize what was happening. Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, and the other elders all cried out in shock and fury.
They were all surprised that after destroying the Star Luo Empire, Qian Renxue didn’t go on to wipe out Heaven Dou Empire, but ca for Clear Sky Sect instead.
"Great Suru Hamr!"
"Ring Detonation!"
Boom—
Tang Hao took the lead, flying out of Clear Sky Sect and imdiately using the Ring Detonation divine skill, heading straight for the falling teors.
Because Tang Hao knew—since Qian Renxue was here, only the Ring Detonation could possibly put up a fight.
"Martial Soul True Body!"
"Haotian Nine Arts!"
"Haotian Formation!"
...
Tang Xiao and the other elders all acted at once.
