Chapter 1037: Chapter 1037: Zhao’er, Is That You?

"Boom!!!"

The whole of Chang’an City shook violently as if struck by a massive earthquake. The White Dragon kept colliding with the Seven-Colored Radiance outside the Light Barrier, but it was in vain.

"Ha ha ha, it’s useless! The Seven-Coloured Glazed Lamp can withstand a full-force strike from someone at the Realm of Heavenly Emperor. How could someone of your cultivation even dream of breaking it?"

At that moment, Wuqu Star Lord walked through the Seven-Colored Light Barrier toward Luo Cheng.

"Luo Cheng, we are both at the Immortal Golden Cultivation Level. It is a good time to have a great battle!"

Luo Cheng immediately accepted the challenge, and with their equal realms, they exchanged blows, the battle quickly becoming a stalemate.

Du Bin, who had been sent flying by Zhen Nan, and after suffering a setback, fiercely charged towards Zhen Nan. Zhen Nan, while managing Du Bin’s attacks with vines she had conjured, swung the Demonic Qi in her hands transforming it into a cone-shaped weapon that continuously struck the Light Barrier. She was desperately trying to reach you as she felt your vitality was continuously waning!

Meanwhile, Meng Family and Luo Xin also joined in bombarding the Seven-Colored Light Barrier. Although Luo Xin’s Heavenly Paint Brush was sufficient for defense, it lacked in offense, while Meng Family summoned a dozen Rakshasa Ghost Generals, each over ten meters tall, swinging their massive weapons at the Light Barrier.

Perhaps sensing that your life force was fading, Ma Linghan also launched an attack on the Seven-Colored Light Barrier using the Treasured Sword. Her Banished Immortal Sword had not yet been refined and thus couldn’t be used, so she relied on the Treasured Sword originally given by her sect.

While most were attacking the Seven-Colored Light Barrier, Divine Erlang, Yang Jian, slowly made his way through it and arrived in front of Li Lanyi.

He bowed slowly to Li Lanyi and said, "This place is a realm of conflict, you should leave."

By then, Xiang Wei was already stunned and fainted by Yang Jian’s majestic presence. Li Lanyi placed Xiang Wei in a corner and then lifted her head to directly face the legendary Heavenly Tribunals God, and solemnly said, "Although I am a woman, I know what must and must not be done. Even if it leads to destruction, I shall stand with my husband. Yang Jian, I am unclear of your hardships, but by scheming against my husband and his family, you have forsaken the role of a god of justice. Perhaps the whole world will find today’s actions shameful and even disgusting!"

A look of pain momentarily crossed Yang Jian’s face, but he quickly composed himself, sighed, and said, "Since that is the case, I shall have to take you down first."

"Hmph!" Li Lanyi was mentally prepared, and suddenly removed a bracelet from her right hand, throwing it at Yang Jian. As soon as the bracelet left her hand, it began to rotate swiftly around Yang Jian, and as it spun, a strange aura began emanating outward.

"Mixed Heaven Exquisite Bracelet!?"

Not just Yang Jian but even Wuqu Star Lord, who was fighting Luo Cheng, yelled out. Although the name of the Mixed Heaven Exquisite Bracelet was not notable, it was a personal treasure of the Queen Mother of the West!

"Yang Jian, quickly subdue her, otherwise..."

Wuqu Star Lord was momentarily distracted, and his chest was suddenly pierced by a beam of silver light, while Luo Cheng swiftly appeared behind Wuqu Star Lord, unleashing hundreds, even thousands of silver light beams, determined to take this opportunity to annihilate Wuqu Star Lord!

What Wuqu Star Lord did not know was that once the Mixed Heaven Exquisite Bracelet left Li Lanyi’s hand, it was no longer under her control, meaning it acted according to its own will.

The Mixed Heaven Exquisite Bracelet broke directly through the Seven-Colored Light Barrier and shot towards you. Ultimately, the bracelet stopped just above your head, slowly releasing a pale green glow. Under the illumination of this glow, you discovered that your swiftly fading vitality was somewhat restored.

Just now, all the words between Li Lanyi and Yang Jian had fallen clearly into your ears; at first, you puzzled over Li Lanyi’s identity, but slowly, very slowly, in your eyes, Li Lanyi merged together with Wu Zhao’s figure. Suddenly, you couldn’t help but call out, "Zhao’er, is that you?"

At this moment, Li Lanyi’s eyes also brimmed with tears. She nodded with teary eyes and softly said, "Husband, it’s me, your Zhao’er has returned."

"Hahaha, good, this is really wonderful!"

You cried tears of joy, and those tears that usually never fell were instantly evaporated by the intense aura surrounding you. With the help of the Mixed Heaven Exquisite Bracelet, you felt your vitality quickly recovering.

"What’s good about that! Today, all of you must die!"

The body of Wuqu Star Lord, already riddled by Luo Cheng’s assaults, bellowed before transforming into a piercing beam of flowing light aimed at Zhen Nan, entangled with Du Bin. At this moment, Zhen Nan was at the end of her strength; nearly all the Golden Core power she and Du Bin had absorbed during their recent dual cultivation had been exhausted, and she could not fend off Du Bin’s attack with her own cultivation alone.

"This cannot be!"

Yang Jian’s face turned pale and he disappeared in a flash, but his reaction was ultimately a beat too slow. Wuqu Star Lord, having often dealt with the Demon Clan, knew their fatal weaknesses. His strike directly shattered Zhen Nan’s Demon Core. Zhen Nan staggered backward a few steps, finally collapsing before you, separated only by a seven-colored light barrier.

"Nan’er!!!"

You nearly went mad with grief, with two women you deeply loved falling before you today—perhaps others would follow soon.

Zhen Nan, with a shaking hand, caressed the seven-colored light barrier, her Demon Core already shattered, barely held together by a faint trace of demonic power. At this moment, Yang Jian shot a beam of gold light into Zhen Nan, stabilizing her form just as she seemed about to dissipate into nothing.

"Ah." Yang Jian closed his eyes in pain and sighed, "I can only preserve you for a few moments. Say everything that’s in your heart."

"Thank you, Divine One."

At this very moment, Zhen Nan’s exceptionally beautiful face no longer held any trace of coquetry, only infinite resolve and a gentle smile like the warm morning sunshine of spring. "Husband, Nan’er has no regrets. Meeting and knowing you, though briefly, has filled me with immense contentment. I know that the love I received was on the condition I initially agreed upon. Now, now..."

"Nan’er, no! Listen to me, my love for you has nothing to do with that condition! I truly love you!"

You cried, for the first time crying so heartbrokenly, for the first time feeling utterly shattered and in unbearable pain.

"Husband... my approach to you admittedly... indeed had a purpose. I was a mere Little Fox outside the lair of the Pathless Demon God and thus knew some of his secrets. From you, I sensed a faint trace of his Demon Breath, so I approached you intending to absorb the Evil Daoist Aura from you."

When everyone, including Yang Jian, heard the words "Pathless Demon God," expressions of immense shock appeared, especially Du Bin—who, if not for Yang Jian’s intervention, might have gone to devour Zhen Nan’s flesh and blood!

"I know, I know! Anything you want, I’ll give you anything! I don’t want you to leave. I want you to be with me, lifetime after lifetime!"

Zhen Nan smiled, a smile filled with profound happiness and peace: "Husband, Nan’er is content..."

Yang Jian’s golden light faded, and Zhen Nan’s body disintegrated into countless drifting particles, vanishing into the ether.
