Chu Yang walked out of the heaven-turning formation, still feeling as if he was dreaming.
Outside, heavy snow was falling, blanketing the world in a vast expanse of white.
The swirling snowflakes struck his face, giving Chu Yang an ethereal sense of tranquility. He did not use any movement techniques, but walked step by step at an ordinary person's pace through the snow.
In this hazy scene, Chu Yang's mind was particularly clear. After recalling everything that had happened here, he remembered Mo Qingwu's strange dream... as well as that mysterious first genius of the previous life, Snow Tear Cold.
There must be a connection!
Chu Yang silently thought to himself.
In the distance, several gazes turned towards him simultaneously.
Bu Liqing's eyes were sharp as an eagle, watching Chu Yang trudge through the snow without blinking. Though they were a thousand zhang apart, Bu Liqing could not see clearly; he could only lock onto Chu Yang's position with his vital energy flow.
Chu Yang had obtained the first place; at this moment, coming out meant he had the Heavenly Repair Jade in his possession!
There would definitely be people with ulterior motives regarding the Heavenly Repair Jade.
So, Chu Yang was in great danger now.
On another side, Feng Yuru and Yue Lingxue stood shoulder to shoulder in the heavy snow, their expressions somewhat complex.
"The Heavenly Repair Jade has finally been refined," Feng Yuru seemed to murmur to herself.
"Indeed," Yue Lingxue's handsome face was illuminated with a hint of tragic determination, "For the past hundred thousand years, every Law Sovereign has poured their heart and soul into assisting the Nine Calamity Sword Master, giving it all. If the predecessors knew that the current enforcers consist only of the two of us, while the others have all given up... what kind of feelings would they have? Would they cry together...?"
"But no matter what, we must uphold our master's wishes! Master’s last words before his death were to adhere to the enforcer's mission and assist the Nine Calamity Sword Master, bringing peace and tranquility to this continent," Feng Yuru said with a smile amidst the storm.
"The Nine Sovereigns Heavenly Repair will begin in three days," Yue Lingxue raised his head, removing his protective power to let the cold snowflakes stick to his face. Feeling the chill, he said, "We will act at that time."
He paused, his tone heavy, "We... may very well be that this battle is our last! Yuru, are you afraid?"
Feng Yuru took a deep breath, looking gently at her husband, with a hint of guilt in her eyes. "I am not afraid, but... I regret not being able to leave behind a male heir for you..."
Yue Lingxue laughed lightly, "Even if there are countless descendants. After many years, everything returns to dust. Yuru, look. There are many people in this world, many surnames, but after ten thousand years, many of these surnames have disappeared from this continent, because they had no children, or only daughters without sons. Once they marry, they lose their maiden family’s surname... Only the great clans have continued to survive..."
"But gradually, as time passes, even the great clans will disappear."
Yue Lingxue said faintly, "What does it matter if they disappear? Whether they vanish now or in millions of years, they are still gone. When a person dies, it is like a lamp extinguished. Even if there are other worlds, they no longer belong here. What’s the point of dwelling on it?"
Feng Yuru listened dazedly, her eyes reddening, "I never thought so much, but I just wanted to have my own child..."
Yue Lingxue sighed deeply, "If we survive today, there will be children."
The two leaned against each other, and Feng Yuru slowly nestled into her husband’s embrace. They quietly stopped talking, savoring the calm and ease before the impending battle...
...
Chu Yang continued to walk forward.
After another thirty zhang, he would be out of the Medicine Valley's warning area.
Surrounding him was a powerful aura.
Those were the experts from the nine great clans, preparing to take action!
