After slaying the Blood Sword Demon, Bai Cangdong almost without pause rushed towards the Hellfire Envoy. The white life-bound divine light carried boundless killing intent as it wildly slashed out.

The flames on the Hellfire Envoy erupted, colliding with the white life-bound divine light. They exploded and shattered into pieces, and Bai Cangdong was thrown back. However, while still in the air, he immediately used the force to rebound and return. The Lingluo Sword swung, and a whip-like white life-bound divine light fiercely lashed out towards the Hellfire Envoy.

The Hellfire Envoy's life-bound divine light was extremely thick. Each of Bai Cangdong's attacks only dispersed part of its life-bound divine light, never managing to injure its main body.

Bai Cangdong paid no attention to these things, madly attacking the Hellfire Envoy. His mind was filled with nothing but the intent to kill.

Bai Cangdong single-handedly restrained the Hellfire Envoy and a group of powerful Viscount-level Undead. Feng Xian, on the contrary, felt no pressure and took the opportunity to rush to the Eternity Crystal, shattering it fiercely.

As soon as the Eternity Crystal was shattered, the Undead scattered and fled. However, Bai Cangdong, with bloodshot eyes, turned to attack Feng Xian.

Feng Xian had already noticed that something was off with Bai Cangdong. He raised his sword to block, and a white and a golden sword light collided, shattering almost simultaneously. Feng Xian remained steady, but Bai Cangdong was pushed back several steps.

"What are you doing?" Ling Bo, who was both surprised and delighted, was momentarily speechless upon seeing this scene.

Feng Xian did not respond, only leading Bai Cangdong towards the bottom of the Undead Altar. The Undead Altar had already vanished into the void, and if they did not leave soon, they would be trapped in the void as well.

Bai Cangdong followed Feng Xian down the altar, and Feng Xian did not stop, leading Bai Cangdong further away.

"This place is good, suitable for our final resting place." Feng Xian stood atop a mountain peak that rose from the abyss, with the lower part of the mountain hidden in mist, only a small section visible above the fog.

Bai Cangdong paid no attention to what Feng Xian said, and the white sword light directly slashed over.

Peng!

Feng Xian did not dodge, directly slashing out sword light to clash with Bai Cangdong. This time, the two were evenly matched. Bai Cangdong was thrown back, and Feng Xian also had a hard time, retreating dozens of steps before stabilizing, the rocks under his feet cracking.

The two engaged in a frenzied battle, their sword lights clashing directly without any evasion. The white and golden sword lights shot into the sky, making the heavens and earth change color, and the sun and moon lose their light.

They clashed countless times, and the mountain peak was cut off by their sword lights, covered with sword marks and the traces of explosions from the collisions.

A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of Feng Xian's mouth: "The effect of the Life-Exploding Pill has reached its limit. I am already at the 360-grid perfect state of life-bound divine light. You can fight me to this extent, I wonder what kind of pill you used. It seems neither of us will leave here alive. Let's go to hell together, at least we'll have company on the Yellow Spring Road."

Bai Cangdong only continued to attack, paying no attention to what Feng Xian said.

The two sword lights collided, and after the sword lights shattered, the swords did not stop, still thrusting towards their enemies. This time, Feng Xian did not choose to dodge.

Bai Cangdong's Evil-Dispelling Sword pierced through Feng Xian's heart, splattering blood all over him, while the tip of Feng Xian's sword hovered in front of his throat, not thrusting down.

Perhaps because he was splattered with blood, Bai Cangdong's killing intent receded like a tide, restoring his normal thinking.

Bai Cangdong looked at Feng Xian with a complex expression. He clearly remembered everything that had happened, but under the influence of the killing intent, he could not stop his hands, only wanting to kill all the living beings before him.

Clang!

Feng Xian's sword fell to the ground, and her body leaned backward.

Bai Cangdong quickly caught her, letting her lie half in his arms, and asked strangely, "Why didn't you thrust your sword down?"

"I'm tired, I don't want to kill anymore." Feng Xian looked at the distant mist, her face abnormally flushed.

Bai Cangdong did not dare to pull out the Evil-Dispelling Sword that pierced through Feng Xian's chest, fearing that she would die immediately if he did.

Looking at Feng Xian, Bai Cangdong did not know what to say. He was not familiar with her.

"What pill did you take? How did you become so powerful?" After a moment of thought, Bai Cangdong finally thought of something to ask.

"Life-Exploding Pill. It can make my life-bound divine light surge in a short time, even reaching the 360-grid perfect state. However, it will also destroy my life disk. No one who has used the Life-Exploding Pill has ever survived. So even if you didn't thrust your sword down, I would still be doomed to die." Feng Xian said.

Bai Cangdong was moved: "You knew from the beginning that you would die, so why did you take the Life-Exploding Pill?"

"I am the eldest daughter of the Feng family and my father's only descendant. I was raised to be the successor of the Feng family. Since I was old enough to understand, except for short periods of sleep and meals, I had to follow a strict schedule to practice martial arts and learn strategy. I entered the Wind Legion at the age of thirteen, following my father in battles in the abyss, slaying countless Undead. At sixteen, I officially took charge of the Wind Legion and various affairs of the Feng family."

"Cough, cough!" Feng Xian coughed up some blood, her face looking better, and she continued: "Others praised me as a genius, the best in martial arts and strategy in Fenghuacheng, leading the Wind Legion to guard the abyss, maneuvering among the old foxes of Fenghuacheng, handling everything perfectly, making the Feng family even more prosperous. Who would know that I was just an ordinary girl, and all of this was forced upon me. How many times have I woken up from nightmares, longing to be just an ordinary girl, to enjoy the love of my parents, not to have to scheme every day, not to worry about being schemed against, just to prepare a rich dinner and wait for my husband to return, watching him be happy."

Bai Cangdong listened quietly, looking at Feng Xian, who was like a little girl dreaming in his arms, feeling deep pity.

"Can you hold me tightly? I don't want to die alone." At some point, Feng Xian was already in tears.

Bai Cangdong held Feng Xian tightly in his arms, one hand gently combing through her somewhat messy hair.

Seeing the unusual look in Bai Cangdong's eyes, Feng Xian softly said, "Before I die, can I see your true face?"

Bai Cangdong hesitated for a moment, then removed the Night Veil, revealing his face, which was not particularly handsome but could be considered handsome.

"Looking at your face, I never would have thought you could be so crazy." Feng Xian laughed, but the movement caused her to cough up more blood.

Bai Cangdong gently wiped the blood from the corner of Feng Xian's mouth, holding her in his arms, not knowing what to say. Although Feng Xian said she would die, he was the one who ended her life with his sword.

"Can you kiss me? I have never experienced the feelings between men and women, I wonder what it feels like." Looking at Bai Cangdong's pained expression, Feng Xian suddenly said.

Bai Cangdong's lips lightly touched Feng Xian's forehead, making her close her eyes involuntarily. Then Feng Xian felt a warmth on her lips, and she greedily and clumsily tried to seek more warmth.

When their lips parted, Feng Xian looked at Bai Cangdong and smiled, "I really regret not thrusting my sword down. That way, after I died, you wouldn't have the chance to treat other women like this."

Bai Cangdong held her lovingly in his arms, letting her face rest against his. He also felt deep fear, the uncontrollable killing intent making him feel helpless.

He knew the source of the problem was the "Baiye Sutra." When he used the white life-bound divine light from the "Baiye Sutra," the more Undead he killed, the stronger his killing intent became, and the more powerful the white life-bound divine light became, until he could no longer control it, falling into a frenzy of slaughter.

Time passed, and Feng Xian did not really die, her face gradually improving. They thought it was a last burst of energy.

A figure stepped out of the air, landing before them.

"Lord Viscount!" Feng Xian saw the beautiful woman and couldn't help but exclaim, while Bai Cangdong had already summoned the Night Veil to cover his face.

"Did you use the Life-Exploding Pill?" Fenghua Viscount raised her palm, and Feng Xian's body floated up, slowly drifting to her, hovering in mid-air.

"Yes, Lord Viscount, there's no need to trouble yourself, I am already doomed to die." Feng Xian said calmly.

"That's true, no one who has used the Life-Exploding Pill has ever survived. However, your condition does not match the reaction after taking the Life-Exploding Pill. According to the properties of the Life-Exploding Pill, the drug should have already burst your life disk by now. But now, the life-bound divine light in your life disk is slowly fading." Fenghua Viscount said after examining Feng Xian's condition.

"Lord Viscount, do you mean there's still a chance to save me?" Feng Xian was both surprised and delighted.

"Perhaps. The Life-Exploding Pill is very lethal, and this sword wound is also very lethal. However, for some reason, this sword did not cause your life disk to collapse due to the effects of the Life-Exploding Pill. This is a miracle, but you are still severely injured. Whether you can survive is still unknown. I must take you back to the Viscount's residence immediately." Fenghua Viscount finished and glanced at Bai Cangdong, "Was it him who stabbed you?"

"This has nothing to do with him. I wanted to die quickly and avoid more suffering." Feng Xian glanced at Bai Cangdong and said softly.

"Hmph." Fenghua Viscount casually slapped out a palm, and Bai Cangdong did not have time to defend himself, feeling a huge force hit his body, throwing him back, his bones feeling like they were about to fall apart, and he did not get up for a long time.

When he came to his senses, Fenghua Viscount had already taken Feng Xian away, leaving him alone on the desolate mountain peak.
