The moment this happened, the entire Star Under Red Clothes universe rumbled. Thunder cracked, stunning countless people.
The sky and earth turned crimson, as if the universe itself were roaring.
"Damn you! You deserve to die—" A massive roar rang across the starry sky, followed by heavy breathing, suppressed to the extreme. The entire universe seemed to share that oppression, and countless stars trembled.
Inside the Blood Pagoda, Jiu Wen stared up in shock. What was this?
"Jiu Wen, it's your turn. Take the Blood Pagoda's tainted treasure and die with Xi Shangfeng. I've broken one of his points of Wushang Dao, the one tied to forgiveness and surrender. You're all that's left." A voice reached Jiu Wen's ears.
Jiu Wen looked around, his expression changing dramatically. "It's you. You're here."
"There's no time. Break two more points of his Wushang Dao, and his strength will decline completely. Isn't this what you've always wanted? That Lu Yin is too young, and his resolve is weak. He wavers. You've already broken seven points of his Wushang Dao. He'll surely be able to deal with him."
"He and Red Hero are both The Unknown. He won't act."
"Even so, if you break seven points of his Wushang Dao, he'll never recover. Leave dealing with him to Lu Yin later. Lu Yin can kill an Immortal Feather who fits twofold universe laws on his own. Killing a severely wounded Red Hero won't be a problem. Hurry and break his Wushang Dao."
Jiu Wen's eyes flickered. "Why are you doing this?"
"There's no time."
"You're the one who's running out of time." Jiu Wen shouted and stepped out of the Blood Pagoda. The shattered wine gourd reappeared in his hand. "The moon in the wine; the heavens in the gourd."
