Chapter 1008: Save Her!
She had ignited her fleshly body and soul, essentially committing suicide!
Rong Qiu and the other enforcers not far away instantly turned pale. They rushed madly toward the blazing Fu Wu. However, when they were about thirty meters away from her, a mysterious force blocked them, and they couldn't move forward an inch.
All they could do was watch helplessly as Fu Wu's figure became more and more illusory.
Rong Qiu's eyes were wide with rage, desperately trying to shatter the mysterious force, but his efforts were futile.
Just then, Si Ying opened her palm, and a crystal blue seal appeared in her hand.
"Fu Wu," she said.
In the distance, Fu Wu raised her head to look at Si Ying.
When she saw the crystal blue seal, she froze as if she had been struck by lightning.
A soul lay quietly inside the seal.
Fu Wu trembled upon seeing the soul.Ye Guan exchanged glances with Yi Nian, and the two of them revealed disbelief on their faces. Naturally, it wasn't that difficult to deduce the identity of the soul.
So Si Ying hadn't burned the bridges at the time! But how come she only pulled that out now?
Ye Guan, Yi Nian, and the Tianxing denizens were bewildered.
What on earth was Si Ying up to?
Si Ying stared at Fu Wu and chuckled. "I always thought you were heartless and selfish, but it turns out you weren't heartless. You just never considered us as your sisters..."
As she spoke, she extended her palm, and the seal slowly floated toward Fu Wu.
Looking at the seal in front of her, Fu Wu's hands trembled uncontrollably, and gradually, tears welled up in her eyes once more.
Si Ying no longer looked at the trembling Fu Wu. She raised her head and glanced at the shattered Tianxing Universe, whispering, "Teacher, I'm sorry, I failed to manage the Tianxing Civilization properly..."
Boom!
Si Ying's soul burst into flames; she had decided to end her life instead of returning to the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone!
The Tianxing denizens were horrified.
Yi Nian kicked the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone and urgently shouted, "Quick, save her!"
"Ah!"
The Reincarnation Ancestral Stone snapped out of it, hastily releasing a mysterious force to contain Si Ying, who was enveloped in flames. The Reincarnation Ancestral Stone quivered and said, "Thank goodness, just a bit more, and her soul would have been reduced to nothingness." R
Yi Nian breathed a sigh of relief. She then looked up toward Fu Wu, who was becoming more and more illusory.
Yi Nian kicked the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone toward her and said, "Save her, too."
The Reincarnation Ancestral Stone solemnly replied, "Her soul… I can't help her. She has already shattered her life seed..."
Just then, the distant Tianxing Life Tree trembled slightly and released waves of life energy. The space in front of Fu Wu rippled, and the fragments of her life seed gathered, becoming whole once again.
The Tianxing Life Tree easily repaired the life seed, and it sent the life seed toward Fu Wu.
Fu Wu looked at the life seed but shook her head.
"Fu Wu, take a closer look at the soul inside that seal."
Fu Wu gazed at the soul and saw a seed inside the soul's abdomen. She was stunned, and she looked at the Tianxing Life Tree with a face full of confusion.
The Tianxing Life Tree sighed softly and remarked, "Back then, Si Ying saved him just as he was about to die. I had no idea until now; the puzzle pieces had just clicked in place, and it was all thanks to the fact that Si Ying had once visited me, asking for a pure life seed.
"I didn't understand why she needed it at the time, but it all makes sense now. She sought a pure life seed to save that man and make him a fruit of our Tianxing Civilization. That way, you two can openly be together..."
Fu Wu froze, and her voice trembled as she asked, "Why did she not tell me right away?"
"I think she's mad at you," the Tianxing Life Tree said, "Back then, she asked you who was more important, your sisters or that man? And how did you answer her back then?"
The tears that had just stopped flowing from Fu Wu's eyes gushed out once again. In a fit of anger, she had uttered hurtful words in response to that question.
The Tianxing Life Tree added, "The soul has merged with the seed, but it is still extremely weak, and the seed is rejecting it as well. I'll have to bring it inside me and nourish it with my life force. The rejection will eventually disappear."
Fu Wu looked at the Tianxing Life Tree and was about to speak when Holy King Zong vanished and charged straight at Fu Wu as a golden beam of light. The overwhelming aura of his might was enough to destroy heaven and earth!
The Tianxing denizens were terrified.
Holy King Zong stared at Fu Wu with fierce killing intent in his eyes.
At first, he wanted to recruit Fu Wu into the Wujian Civilization, but it was clearly impossible at this point. Since that was the case, he made a move. If Fu Wu and Chief Enforcement Officer Jing Chu were to recover and join forces, they'd pose a great threat to the Wujian Civilization!
She had to be eliminated while she was injured!
The Tianxing Civilization had to be destroyed today as well!
The Wujian Civilization was determined to obtain both the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone and the Tianxing Life Tree!
Just as Holy King Zong was about to reach Fu Wu, a shadowy figure slammed into him.
Boom!
The beam of golden light shattered, and Holy King Zong was blasted away.
Holy King Zong looked up and saw a woman behind Fu Wu.
She was none other than Chief Enforcement Officer Jing Chu!
Jing Chu's fleshly body had cracked open, and blood trickled down her lips. Her face was as pale as a piece of paper, and her face was pallid; she was clearly moving using the final vestiges of her strength.
Holy King Zong's eyes narrowed. No matter what, the two Chief Enforcement Officers had to die today. Otherwise, they would become a massive threat to the Wujian Civilization in the future. If they were allowed to recover...
With that in mind, Holy King Zong clenched his fists, and a golden light surged out of his palm. In an instant, he shot forward like a cannonball, flying directly at Jing Chu.
The immense power shattered the Tianxing Civilization's spacetime!
Jing Chu's eyes became filled with determination at the sight.
Just then, Fu Wu grabbed her restored life seed and thrust it inside her. Then, she turned sharply and slashed out with her sword.
Boom!
The golden beam of light was shattered; both Fu Wu and Holy King Zong were blasted ten thousand meters away.
As soon as Fu Wu stopped, blood trickled down the corner of her mouth. Both she and Jing Chu were severely injured, so they were naturally at a disadvantage against the unscathed Holy King Zong from the Wujian Universe.
Holy King Zong glanced at his fist. There was a deep sword wound on it, and his face darkened upon seeing it. He slowly lifted his head to look at Fu Wu, and his eyes brimmed with killing intent.
Holy King Zong clenched his right hand once more, and a terrifying golden light erupted from him. A myriad of mysterious runes were within the golden light; they were as small as tadpoles, but they contained a formidable might.
Fu Wu's eyes glimmered with resolve at the sight of it. Instead of retreating, she advanced and slashed down with her sword. The sword light was like a waterfall as it descended toward Holy King Zong.
Boom!
The sword came down hard, shattering the golden light, but the impact sent Fu Wu flying backward.
Fu Wu coughed multiple mouthfuls of blood as she struggled to stabilize herself in midair.
Holy King Zong was about to attack when Wu Yi appeared and pointed at Ye Guan, shouting, "Holy King Zong, kill him first!"
Ye Guan was furious. Damn, what have I done to you, woman?! Why are you nursing a grudge against me? It's not like I did something to you and are refusing to take responsibility!
Holy King Zong glanced at Ye Guan. Upon seeing Ye Guan's low cultivation base, he didn't take Ye Guan seriously and merely flicked his sleeve, sending a beam of golden light toward Ye Guan.
Ye Guan's face darkened. He was about to make a move when the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone beside him flew toward the golden light.
Boom!
The golden light shattered, and the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone was sent flying, landing at Ye Guan's feet, groaning, "Argh, it hurts! It really hurts! I'm dying..."
Ye Guan was speechless.
Yi Nian smiled softly, knowing that the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone was trying its best to attract her husband's attention. She couldn't help but glance at Ye Guan, feeling a bit expectant.
Ye Guan looked up at Wu Yi, who was staring at him.
Their eyes burned with hatred as they stared at each other.
Wu Yi glared at Ye Guan with intense hatred and said, "Holy King Zong, he carries a divine sword and a tiny pagoda, both of which are incredible treasures of the vast expanse—"
Swoosh!
Holy King Zong vanished and charged straight at Ye Guan.
He wanted to deal with Fu Wu and Jing Chu first, as they were dangerous. Upon hearing Wu Yi's words, however, he decided to give her some face and kill Ye Guan first. After all, Fu Wu and Jing Chu were already gravely injured and could be dealt with later.
Moreover, the human swordsman was weak; he could kill the former with ease.
Ye Guan's eyes narrowed, and a boundless sword energy erupted from within him.
Meanwhile, the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone frantically transmitted to Fu Wu and Jing Chu, "Save him, quick! This is a golden opportunity for our Tianxing Civilization! Save him, and our civilization is saved!"
The Reincarnation Ancestral Stone sounded agitated, as if it had been injected with adrenaline.
