"If that's the case, then let these heroic spirits do their part for Luofu once more..."

Upon hearing this, Jing Yuan felt relieved and sighed.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while. Jing Yuan Gwen the various customs and foods of the Xianzhou, and Gwen did not mind comparing them with what he knew, so that Jing Yuan and the Xianzhou could understand him better.

As the two were changing the fifth pot of tea, Fei Xiao finally returned.

"Wow, you look like you're recovering well?"

Without any hesitation, Fei Xiao accepted the tea that Gwen offered and drank it all in one gulp. He then smiled and said to Gwen.

After a great battle with an Annihilation Lord, he simply slept and was as good as new. Even though he later received the blessing of the Emperor Bow God, he still deserves our respect.

"No problem."

Gwen smiled, put down his teacup,

"Now that Fei Xiao has finished his report, shall we go and have a spar?"

The two had already agreed to spar sometime. Gwen heard from Jing Yuan that Jingliu was going to travel around Luofu, and guessed that she was probably already organizing a reunion session.

Although that's not very friendly to Jing Yuan, it would be even worse if he didn't go, so let's make him go.

"Now that you've recovered, you should naturally make the most of your time."

Fei Xiao readily agreed.

"After all, such an opportunity is rare."

"That's true. As a general stationed in Yaoqing, it's indeed not easy for you to find a suitable sparring partner."

Gwen smiled as he stood up and waved to Jing Yuan.

"Then we'll head over now. Jing Yuan, please make yourself at home..."

"Go ahead, I happen to have some things to take care of too."

Jing Yuan smiled and nodded, watching the two leave before slowly getting up and leaving the Divine Might Palace from another direction.

Just as Gwen had predicted, Jing Yuan turned left and right, passing through several grottoes, and arrived at the Scale Abyss Realm, which was still under martial law.

However, as Jing Yuan, heavy-hearted, approached the Dragon Exaltation Hall again, he heard a fierce argument and even the sound of metal clashing—

"You've gone mad!"

Jingliu's voice was filled with chilling killing intent, and Jing Yuan could even imagine the look of resentment on her face at that moment.

If her Mara-Struck had not already been treated, there would have been a risk of it recurring on the spot.

"I really have gone mad long ago!"

But I'm absolutely certain I didn't misread it!

That's her!

Another voice, deep and hoarse, carried an undisguised excitement, even madness—

"I will never admit my mistake!"

"..."

Jing Yuan quickened his pace and rushed into the dilapidated palace, only to find sword energy permeating the air. Some of the ruined palaces collapsed and were destroyed as two figures, one in black and one in blue, crossed paths. Only a solitary figure stood quietly in the statue of the Lord of the Lunar Sea, watching this scene.

"?"

Seeing this scene, which was expected but happened much earlier than he had anticipated, Jing Yuan couldn't help but show a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Before he could speak, a figure descended from the sky like a shooting star and landed at his feet.

Chapter 925 Why do the generals of the Xianzhou often exhibit the potential for expanding their Path of the Hunt?

"..."

Looking at his once devoted friend, who could have proclaimed "I'd rather be a firefly drawn to a flame than a withered tree that grows old forever," now reduced to a listless, frenzed corpse, Jing Yuan's eyes dimmed slightly. He didn't ask him anything, but instead looked ahead—

Like a flash of moonlight, Jingliu descended gracefully, carrying a chilling aura. A pair of red eyes, burning with rage, stared intently at the man on the ground.

"Jing Yuan ..."

Just as Jing Yuan was pondering how to begin, the crazed man on the ground suddenly spoke, his voice hoarse yet filled with indescribable joy—

I saw her!

I saw her again!

"..."

Hearing the madness in Stellarons Hunters Ying Xing's words... Jing Yuan fell silent for a moment.

The one who could excite the other person so much... there can only be one person.

As for what the other party said about "seeing"...

Jing Yuan also had his own guesses.

"She's already dead!"

Seeing that Ying Xing remained relentless, Jingliu also ruthlessly pierced his throat with her sword. Blood gushed out, but it did not shake her voice in the slightest.

"You already humiliated her once before, are you not even going to let go of the last bit of her will to live?"

"But I saw her..."

Blood gushed from his throat, but the man on the ground continued to make incoherent sounds...

That was a nightmare that had haunted him for centuries, preventing him from ever getting a moment's rest—

"A person like her shouldn't just be burned to ashes, completely buried... forgotten by people..."

"Are you determined to further humiliate the warrior's honor and demeanor, turning her into Abominations of Abundance before you're satisfied?"

Jingliu raised his sword again and stabbed him twice in the chest, piercing his lungs.

If she weren't truly helpless against this wretched creature, she would definitely tear it to pieces!

"A monstrous thing?"

No!

That's not a monster!

Despite his injured lungs and bleeding throat, Ying Xing continued to utter those frantic sounds—

"That was approved by your Emperor Bow God!"

That's the destiny for someone like her!

"..."

Hearing this, Jing Yuan frowned slightly, already having guessed most of what had happened.

While Gwen summoned the heroic spirits of the Xianzhou to besiege Phantylia, Ying Xing, who was still lurking in Luofu, happened to see Bai Heng's share, and even with Kafka, who was also Stellarons Hunters, by his side, he could not suppress his emotions.

After learning through certain channels what happened deep within the Scale Abyss Realm that day, he became even more uncontrollable, and demonic influence entered his mind.

But...

I recalled the beam of light in Gwen's hand, and the composure with which he spoke of these Heroic Spirits just now...

Even the general of Luofu couldn't help but feel a momentary flutter in his heart.

Even though a broken mirror can never be mended, if the missing piece were to return, perhaps...

"!"

Realizing his thoughts had gone astray, Jing Yuan quickly shook his head to banish this extremely dangerous idea from his mind.

"Jing Yuan, even you..."

The Jingliu Sword twitched slightly, but it still didn't point at Jing Yuan; it simply lowered itself towards the ground.

As Jing Yuan's master, Jingliu believed he knew Jing Yuan very well.

Having taken in Jing Yuan's subtle actions, Jingliu had already guessed what his disciple was thinking.

However, she believed that Jing Yuan was not as irrational as the immortal monstrosity on the ground or the guy in the distance.

He... should be able to figure it out...

"...

Oh...

How could I not think about it while I'm here?

Meeting Jingliu's gaze, Jing Yuan remained silent for a moment, then gave a bitter smile.

Anyway, there are no outsiders here, only the four of them. Ying Xing is beyond saving, and the Jingliu Mara-Struck is being treated so that there is no need to worry about it being too stimulating. Dan Heng in the distance still looks bewildered, so he can also be without any scruples.

"You need to think this through..."

Jing Yuan Jingliu admit it. He quietly raised his sword, clearly determined to punish Jing Yuan if he didn't behave.

"Of course, I've thought it through very clearly."

Jing Yuan slowly exhaled the pent-up frustration in his chest, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes, and slowly said—

"People from all walks of life have studied the concept of destiny."

The Hunt we follow, those who follow the Emperor Bow God, are often seen as narrow and dangerous paths, with the risk of being destroyed and swallowed up like the old Order being absorbed by the Harmony.

However...

Among the Emperor Bow's Seven Generals, there are those like me who are good at scheming, and there are also those like General Huai Yan who are skilled craftsmen. Even General of Heavenly Strike has a bold and chivalrous side.

Besides the alliance, there are also Sea Ranger who act out of a sense of justice. Although their motives are revenge, they are also committed to upholding justice and protecting the weak...

You mean...

A broader path in life?

A fourth voice, which had not spoken before, quietly rang out. It was Dan Heng, who had been standing in the shadow of the Dragon Lord statue, watching the farce with a sense of bewilderment and helplessness, and had quietly taken a few steps closer.

As the train's think tank administrator, Dan Heng is fully capable of competing for the title of the most knowledgeable person on the train.

Upon hearing Jing Yuan's words and connecting the dots, Dan Heng immediately made a connection.

Indeed.

Jing Yuan nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over Jingliu before him, then moving closer to Dan Heng and Ying Xing on the ground, his expression solemn—

"Although there are many jokes among the common people that the Emperor Bow's Seven Generals are the Hunt Emanator, few of them wholeheartedly carry out the Hunt way."

But on another level, could this be seen as the emperor protecting and expanding one's destiny?

"...

However, the dead were resurrected, and ultimately...

Hearing this, Jingliu already understood what Jing Yuan was talking about, but he still frowned deeply—

This was a huge shock to her values, which had been shaped over thousands of years.

"During his day off, I spoke with the people on the Stellaris Train again. Is it true that Mr. Welt and Gwen come from the same civilization?"

Jing Yuan looked at Dan Heng.

"..."

Dan Heng remained silent, but his silence was tantamount to acquiescence.

"On their planet, there is a myth that the gods would guide the souls of brave warriors to Valhalla, where they would fight and train day and night in order to lead them to the final battlefield for a desperate fight."

Jing Yuan nodded in agreement and continued,

"The Emperor Bow God may not be trying to replicate the myths of that planet, but since he has already bestowed the arrow of light, he has already acknowledged their will."

Perhaps in time, another faction will emerge along the Path of the Hunt ...

How confident are we about this?

Using his fingers to block his pierced throat and manually reduce the pressure of speaking, Ying Xing stared intently at Jing Yuan and asked impatiently.

"I don't know, it depends on Gwen's decision, and..."

How does the league view this?

Jing Yuan shook his head slightly, his gaze deep and thoughtful.
