Xu Bai: At Last, I'm Out!

Every word carried a devastating power, instilling a chilling fear in everyone present. Upon seeing it, they all shuddered.

Even Ning Weiyue gripped the long sword at her waist tightly, her knuckles turning white.

Although he appeared calm on the surface, he was actually quite panicked inside.

This is the power of Exiting Sainthood; no one can contend with it. Even those who have entered sainthood are nothing more than ants before a Saint who Exiting Sainthood.

The power of this single move alone was enough to invigorate everyone present.

"Boom!"

The roar was continuous, and each word that fell was accompanied by a loud bang.

As the words fell, the sea rose up, reaching the sky and connecting with the earth, sending chills down one's spine.

In the sky, the seawater is connected, and the ground is gradually sinking. The power of the words is causing the seawater to evaporate rapidly, and the sea level is decreasing at a visible rate.

Although the nine blurry figures were protected by special forces, as one character after another fell, layers of spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the surface of the phantoms.

The cracks started out small, but as time went on, they gradually deepened and multiplied, eventually producing a series of cracking sounds like an eggshell breaking.

Liu Yue remained calm and composed, waving his hand to produce countless words. He had mastered the art of scholarship to an unparalleled degree.

"Who dares to disturb our resurrection!"

At that moment, the nine phantom figures roared in unison, their fury reaching its peak, and they descended from the sky with unimaginable pressure.

But Liu Yue's expression remained unchanged. He waved his hand lightly, and the earth-shattering pressure vanished instantly with the utterance of a single word.

Even if there are nine Saints, they are nothing more than ants in front of Exiting Sainthood. Moreover, these nine guys have not been truly resurrected, and their current strength is not actually that strong among Saints.

If it weren't for that protective layer, Bai Zhong would probably have been able to wipe them out just now, and Liu Yue's move is even easier now.

"It's Exiting Sainthood!"

"Damn it, how could they possibly have found our location? Didn't that being say that as long as we don't expose ourselves, there's no way anyone could find us?"

"Ning Weiyue! It was her all along! She betrayed us!"

"Traitor, when that being emerges from there, you will receive your due punishment, and we will eventually be resurrected and return!"

These nine phantom figures seemed to have given up and stopped exerting terrifying pressure, after all, they were aware of the situation outside.

Their anger shifted to Ning Weiyue, and everyone uttered vicious curses.

Ning Weiyue's face turned deathly pale, but she didn't say a word. Her gaze remained indifferent and expressionless, like a cold machine.

"As long as we win in the end, that being won't care about the process, and I will still get the credit I deserve."

She took a deep breath and calmly watched the scene unfold before her.

Liu Yue continued to attack, each attack sending countless words crashing down, and each crash causing the crack to spread even faster.

At this moment, one of the phantoms finally couldn't withstand the pressure and shattered in the middle.

As the crisp sound of shattering echoed through the heavens and earth, a phantom that was not yet fully formed rushed over, but the direction the phantom rushed towards was Ning Weiyue's direction.

Ning Weiyue tensed up instantly. She was indeed the number one person below the Saint level, but she had not stepped into the Saint level during the Era of Ten Thousand Kingdoms, so there was a real gap between them.

Seeing the Saintly One who was about to follow, she glanced at Liu Yue beside her and couldn't help but take a few steps closer.

"We're all on the same side, and I can contribute too. He should protect me," Ning Weiyue thought to herself.

The thought had barely formed in her mind when she felt a sharp pain. Looking down, Ning Weiyue saw a phantom arm piercing through her heart, and felt the pain gradually spreading.

"Why... I just want to know why?" Ning Weiyue's face was filled with pain, but her eyes showed more anger and confusion.

She still didn't understand why this had happened.

At this moment, the attack launched by that Saintly Phantom was already at its last gasp, and it was severely injured itself, so it quickly dissipated.

Ning Weiyue's wounds were gradually spreading. The power remaining in her body was preventing her from recovering and was weakening at a visible rate.

Her eyes remained fixed on Liu Yue, seeking an answer from him.

Liu Yue remained silent and continued his attack, while Bai Zhong spoke up, his Bai Zhong laced with sarcasm.

"If you want to know why, it's actually very simple. Have you ever considered that we never betrayed His Majesty the Chu Emperor? This was all just a setup."

A trap?

A scheme?

Ning Weiyue said in disbelief, "You paid such a high price, more than a hundred extraordinary experts, just to set up this scheme. Were they willing to die? Isn't it too cruel to your own people to do this?"

As the saying goes, those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly. In Ning Weiyue's view, there really wasn't anything wrong with this plan.

In this world, there are only a few hundred extraordinary experts. In fact, given the vast number of people in the world, they are not many.

How could they possibly pay such a high price to do something like this? If I were to back out on the spot, wouldn't the price they paid be far too heavy?

"Oh, why would you pay such a high price? You'd better not know." Bai Zhong said with a face full of disdain.

Villains die from talking too much, and Bai Zhong wouldn't be foolish enough to tell a dead person about the possibility of them being resurrected after death.

"I'm about to die, can't you even grant me this small wish? We're in the same trade, after all. Your trade has been passed down because of me, why won't you tell me?" Ning Weiyue's aura was getting weaker and weaker, and she was not far from death.

She was unwilling to accept it. She knew she had lost, but she wanted to understand exactly where she had gone wrong, at least to understand why she had lost.

"You are not worthy." Bai Zhong said indifferently, "People in the military spend their whole lives on the battlefield. Our experience is different from that of ordinary people in the martial arts world. In my opinion, your weak bowing to others makes you unworthy to be in the same line of work as me. I am ashamed of you!"

Anger flashed in Ning Weiyue's eyes as she tried to take a few steps forward, but she was already at her limit. As she took those few steps, her body began to turn to ashes.

"I'm not reconciled. During the Era of Ten Thousand Kingdoms, I was just one step away from becoming a Saint, but someone beat me to it!"

"I had all the advantages of timing, location, and people, but due to time constraints, I ruined my perfect plan!"

"Why? Why did I fail in the end? I refuse to accept it!!!"

The final words lingered between heaven and earth, but it was all too late. Ning Weiyue, filled with resentment and despair, turned into ashes that filled the sky.

With Ning Weiyue's death, all the defectors present were horrified. They finally realized that they were probably not far from death.

Some people tried to run away as fast as they could, but before they could take more than a few steps, they were instantly reduced to ashes.

The terrifying power of the military formation echoed in the sky, and Bai Zhong exuded a despairing battlefield aura.

"I'm just not very talkative, but I'm a genuine Saint. If you let me escape, I might be laughed at for the rest of my life," Bai Zhong with a slight smile.

Everyone was like pieces of tofu in the face of the army's power, unable to resist at all, and was instantly crushed to pieces.

"It's all set. The rest is up to you," Bai Zhong said lazily, yawning.

The remaining eight illusory figures were shattering more and more violently. The protective power above them was indeed very strong. Even Liu Yue had only just managed to break through this protective power.

After the protective force was shattered, the nine illusory figures completely vanished without a trace.

"Finally it's all done, we can go back now." Bai Zhong laughed. "It's a pity we can't give these to Xu Bai to take with him. Xu Bai said he didn't need them, because if we can't get rid of these things immediately, there will always be trouble later."

Liu Yue withdrew his hand, and the countless words disappeared. At the same time, the terrifying power in the sky also vanished.

"Let's go back first. After staying in this barren land for so long, I'm starting to miss the prosperity and wealth of the Capital City."

Bai Zhong curled his lip and said, "Why do I feel like you've started putting on an act from the very beginning?"

This isn't just a feeling, it's real, because Liu Yue now speaks each word with a special rhythm.

It's very unusual, and it gives you goosebumps when you hear it.

Liu Yue coughed lightly, then raised his head and puffed out his chest. "After all, I am also a Exiting Sainthood."

Bai Zhong: "..."

Honestly, if he weren't outmatched, he'd really like to beat this guy up right now.

"Go, go, go! Don't say anything. Don't talk to me on the way back, okay? We'll talk when we get back, alright?" Bai Zhong turned around speechlessly and headed straight for the Capital City.

Liu Yue maintained that sense of loneliness that comes with mastery, silently following behind.

The Ghost Market.

Xu Bai looked at the circular altar in front of him, making final preparations.

The clone stood obediently to the side, like a puppet, showing no emotion.

A Wu curiously reached out and poked the clone's arm, exclaiming in surprise, "It really is so realistic!"

Xu Bai's lips twitched slightly. "Could you please stop poking me? Even though it's my clone, I can still feel things, it's just that I don't feel them very much."

Hearing this, A Wu was even more surprised.

"You can still feel it, so what would it feel like if you touched your own penis?"

Xu Bai: "..."

This idea was good, but it instantly threw his train of thought off course.

Touching your own penis, combined with your own feelings, wouldn't that be double the pleasure?

Etc!

Why would I have such thoughts? That's so twisted!

Xu Bai felt that it must be because he had browsed many posts in the past and been influenced by those bizarre ways of playing.

He shook his head vigorously, trying to shake off these strange thoughts, and pointed at A Wu very seriously.

"Don't say anything right now!"

A Wu: "?"

She was just offering suggestions, she didn't say anything else, I just don't understand.

However, her interest only lasted for a short while before she lost interest and ignored the clone, playing by herself on the side.

Xu Bai didn't think about anything else. He took a deep breath, then took out a token from his waist and handed it to the clone next to him.

The clone decisively took it, stepped forward, and stood in the middle of the circular pattern.

"Hehe, if this succeeds, I can go out and have some fun." Xu Bai rubbed his hands together and ordered his clone to activate the token.

True Yuan Power surged, and soon, the clone in front of him disappeared into the circular pattern.

"It's a success. I need to control the clone, so I won't be talking to you for a while." Xu Bai turned his head and looked at A Wu was playing with a stone to the side, and said.

A Wu crushed the stone in his hand into powder, found another stone, said "Oh," and continued playing with it with his head down.

Xu Bai ignored A Wu and closed his eyes to begin controlling the device.

Ruins.

The Supreme Saint had shrunk even further, and no longer looked as big as before. He was covered in chains, making it difficult for him to even move.

That huge eye was tightly closed.

It looks like a lifeless, inanimate object, but the aura it constantly exudes, which instills fear in all living beings, reminds people that this creature possesses the power to destroy countless worlds.

The surroundings were completely silent, and the deathly black environment made it seem eerie and terrifying.

Just then, his tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and a look of disbelief appeared in the eyes of the Supreme Saint.

"What's going on? How dare he come out?"

Just now, the Supreme Saint sensed Xu Bai's presence, and it was in the mortal realm.

A flash of light appeared, Ruins came into view before the Supreme Saint. The Ruins had shrunk in size and looked much weaker.

"Your emotions seem to be fluctuating. Is there some news?"

When the Ruins appeared, they tried to extract information from the Supreme Saint.

The Supreme Saint opened his eyes and closed them, not saying a word, completely ignoring him.

Although the Ruins lacked facial features, one could sense that it was somewhat complicated at the moment, because the person in front of it was showing emotional fluctuations, indicating that something was wrong, but the relic did not know what it was.

Although the Supreme Saint is currently locked up, he is also gradually weakening. The two are in a zero-sum game, and he doesn't know how much longer he can extend the time.

However, since the Supreme Saint was not saying anything, he couldn't get any information out of him, so he just waited patiently in place.

The Supreme Saint closed his eyes again. Although he seemed to have no emotional fluctuations, he was actually thinking in secret.

To move or not to move, that is a very serious question.

Upon sensing Xu Bai's emergence, the Supreme Saint became cautious and suspicious.
