After hearing this, Huang Fan and the others from the Huang Clan felt like being thrown down a deep icy pit.

The sun seemed to have fully regained its energy, burning up the last bits of red in the sky.

The people from the Huang Clan, however, felt like they were frozen inside a mile-thick piece of ice.

The loss of dignity struck Huang Fan’s heart harder than anything before, almost causing him to faint to the ground.

He, or rather, the Huang Clan had risked everything for the Divine Blood Sect.

They had done everything the sect asked for and perhaps even more.

Yet now, in An Ziqing’s eyes, what was the Huang Clan?

What did she mean that as long as Yu Yuan wanted An Ziqing could kill every single one of them?

Above the people’s heads, the flame that formed into a river-like shape was still floating in the air.

Constantly, people underneath could feel Yuan Qiufang’s powerful existence.

It seemed to everyone that Yuan Qiufang was accumulating his power and was not in a rush to finish anyone off, at least not yet.

“What do you think, young master?”

An Ziqing didn’t even bother to give Huang Fan another look. She stared at Yu Yuan.

To her, the Huang Clan was just a chess piece. After she was done using it, throwing it away won’t be a big deal at all.

She didn’t even care much about her brother, let alone the Huang Clan.

“Joining the Divine Blood Sect…”

Yu Yuan was slightly surprised by the offer and gave Huang Fan an interesting look.

Huang Fan suddenly felt slightly scared and avoided eye contact with him.

“Afraid now?” Yu Yuan laughed. “Afraid that if I say yes the whole Huang Clan will be demolished? Afraid that I will deliberately join the Divine Blood Sect just to wipe you out of my sight?”

“Hmph.”

“Let me inform you that you don’t even deserve to influence my decision!”

With this being said, he faced An Ziqing. “For me, I don’t care if you are a member of the Divine Blood Sect. Since you declared that my grandpa’s injury has nothing to do with you or your sect, then I’ll just be straightforward and tell you that I have no interest in joining at all.”

“Still, I don’t want you to die here either.”

“So please take your brother with you and return to the Land of Extinction.”

In his previous life, he was the leader of the whole Divine Medicine Sect.

The sect was located in the southern part of the Land, and its control far exceeded the Divine Blood Sect or the Red Devil Sect.

Even the Demon Temple and major sects from the Land of Genesis allied with the Divine Medicine Sect.

Divine Medicine Sect was one of the very few that extended powers throughout all three lands, much more powerful than any typical sect.

After rebirth, if he was brought back to the Land of Extinction as a talented cultivator, this would only attract unnecessary attention that might expose him to his brother Zhong Chichen.

He knew exactly how much of a disadvantage he was at right now.

Once he was found out, with an extra three hundred years than he did, his brother could easily slaughter him no matter where he was.

His only choice was to use the time that he had in the Land of Qianxuan wisely and gain enough strength to at least protect himself.

Only after that, he might consider getting into the other two lands.

“What do you mean, young master, that you don’t want me to die here?” An Ziqing giggled. “Thank you for thinking about me, but do you think that Yuan Qiufang is a threat to me?”

“By igniting himself to release his uncontrollable powers, his strength is beyond your imagination.” Yu Yuan glanced up at the flames in the air and suggested. “You know that when people of the Red Devil Sect lose control of their power, how terrible they can be. Right now, I think Yuan Qiufang should almost be at the peak of that.”

An Ziqing’s teasing looks slightly lessened. “Completely lost control? So what?!”

“He might die.” Yu Yuan said as if he didn’t care much. “And you will be severely injured. If I’m not wrong, You should be in the middle stage of the Yin God Realm, right?”

An Ziqing’s face changed drastically.

“Go. Take your brother with you and leave the city.” Yu Yuan kindly suggested, while slowly stepping away from her. “I’ll remember your kindness and hopefully we can meet again someday.”

An Ziqing squinted lightly.

She looked at Yu Yuan as he slowly walked away.

Looking up at the sky, she gave a faint sneer, “Well, I am still going to give it a try. Also, I’m not ready to leave you just yet. I want to be beside you from now on until you die.”

Zap!

The blood band wrapped around her waist shot into the sky, forming a lightning-like illusion.

Almost at the same time, she swung her delicate white hands and pressed on something around her dress.

Crack!

Every single Jinluo rock that was buried in the ground flung out.

Those rocks were as if taking out from a pool of blood, the blood still clinging to their surface.

No one else knew except for Huang Fan.

He knew that amid the Jinluo Mountain was a large lake of blood, and besides that were the bodies of the mysteriously lost hunters.

The blood lake runs throughout the entire mountain valley through an underground channel built for water many years ago.

“Howl!”

In the depths of the flames, Yuan Qiufang roared fiercely.

People could see a large shadow traveling in the flames, and around the shadow were countless runes.

“Yu Yuan!”

After recovering for a while, Yuan Lianyao finally found a sense of what’s going on.

With her eyes glaring in hatred she yelled, “What have you done to my father? What’s up with the shadows?”

“Hmmm…” Yu Yuan felt a bit embarrassed.

Shoo! Shoo!

And the tens of thousands of bloody rocks slammed into the river-like flames.

The collision between them caused a gorgeous scene almost like fireworks.

Along with the deafening explosion, a gentle rain of blood and rock dust lightly came down.

A long halberd A halberd is a weapon common in Chinese fighting. It usually consists of two blades and a pointy head. Here is an image of it. https://aboutancientch1na.weebly.com/uploads/2/9/4/1/29411569/260807_orig.jpg covered with beautiful flames suddenly appeared inside the river aiming at An Ziqing.

A crimson shadow, almost like a visible soul, controlled that halberd in full confidence.

“The Fire Halberd!” An Ziqing was in full consternation, “How does the Fire Halberd end up in your hand?!”

“Sizzle!”

Those sparks of flames suddenly solidified and condensed into crystal pieces.

The pieces fell like meteorites!

In contrast, the Fire Halberd that An Ziqing called out strangely went away leaving only the handful of crystals.

“HOW?”

Yu Yuan couldn’t believe what he saw either. Looking at the crystals, he could feel the power from the flames. “It is a heavenly ranked weapon!”

Weapons were divided into five classes: common, spiritual, earthly, heavenly, and divine.

So far every weapon he had seen in the Dark Moon City, either from Lin Zhuyun or the Black Dragon Shears, were only at most of the spiritual rank. Nowhere had he seen even an earthly weapon.

Any heavenly weapon in the Red Devil Sect, Cold Shadows Sect, or Yinlong Lake would be considered the most precious of their treasures.

Those were usually only held by the core members of the sect!

Even though Yuan Qiufang had cultivated the Red Devil Method for a very long time, but he hadn’t even reached the Yin God Realm yet. How could he get such an advanced precious weapon?

Beams of blood from An Ziqing’s body shot up into the sky.

Under the pressure from the blood, some of the crystal pieces became dimmer than before.

But soon, more crystals joined in and the Fire Halberd formed once again, smashing toward An Ziqing.

An Ziqing snorted, and with a slight turn, she disappeared in an instant.

Boom!

The ground where she was standing was fully distorted after the hit from the Fire Halberd.

A bottomless hole forms on that spot.

Almost like an earthquake striking the Jinluo Mountain, the ground shook and cracks formed around the large hole.

The Fire Halberd then dived into the hole, like a dragon swing in the ground.

“Rumble!”

The ground twisted and the cracks diverged.

The fire rushed toward An Ziqing.

Everyone was astonished by the true powers of a heavenly weapon. It was certainly a once-a-lifetime sight for an ordinary man.

Fire Halberd was indeed powerful, but in Yuan Qiufang’s hands, only a small portion of its true power could be used.

However, even so, An Ziqing still won’t dare to face directly with a hit.

“You see now, even I have not expected that he has a heavenly weapon.” Yu Yuan said to An Ziqing, “Now please leave with your brother.”

“Since she’s here, I’ll not let her leave so easily!”

Mayoress Yuan Lianyao stood up on a small hill. Her brightly colored lotus flowers had already returned to her sleeves. “So you just want to submit to the Divine Blood Sect like that? Remember, this is still the Silver Moon Empire!”

Zhao Zhenghao and Yu Can looked at each other in hesitation.

“Yu Yuan!”

Yuan Lianyao yelled, “I want to know which side are you on right now! Are you helping me or that little bitch from the Divine Blood sect?”
