From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 341: Chapter 336: Before the Tiandao Sword Sect _1

Bai Qi's figure skimmed across the sea surface, with the Rose Cross Sword behind her piercing into the water.

As she flew swiftly, the ocean split into two.

The gray giant tree was still within her range of perception, and her thoughts had yet to emerge from the memories.

The sudden departure of a loved one always leaves one feeling dazed and lost.

She would rather believe that everything she was seeing and hearing was just a dream.

She wished time could rewind, back to those peaceful days before she proposed the idea of meeting Song Mobei.

She wanted the first thing she saw upon waking to be that familiar classroom, and the desk that belonged to her.

On it would surely be the buns that Fang Ren bought for her that morning.

——

Half an hour later, news of the human army's victory dominated the headlines on major radio stations, microblogs, short video apps...

Cheers spread to every corner of the world, and people, overwhelmed with indescribable excitement, rushed to share the news.

The normally quiet Dongjiang at night became sleepless due to this news, as people couldn't help gathering to celebrate. In the Western Regions, where it was still noon, the streets, silent since the start of the war, finally regained their usual hustle and bustle after the battle ended.

However, at the same time, another news section placed just below the victory update also attracted innumerable people's attention.

"Humans Have a Traitor!"

"The Nine Heavens Corps rush to the Tiandao Sword Sect!"

"Traitor," such a jarring word.

Generations of ancestors had bought even this slight peace with countless lives, and in this very war, numerous warriors had bravely fought and shed their blood, yet amongst humans there could be traitors!

This sudden piece of news angered everyone in the world.

Within ten minutes, all major news and social media platforms were flooded with calls to "execute the traitor at all costs."

——

Meanwhile, the medical school class three at Mu Family Manor, upon hearing that Fang Ren had fallen in the battle zone, first remained silent, then was enveloped by a wave of inexplicable sorrow.

"Qian Qian, don't cry. He... he died a glorious death, he is the pride of everyone in our class..."

Li Xinyue, sitting beside Liu Qianqian, watched her cry uncontrollably and didn't know how to console her grieving heart.

Although she was not always too kind to Fang Ren in class, he was still her classmate for many years, and just minutes ago, Fang Ren saved the lives of the entire class.

A living person, suddenly perished on the battlefield, made her very sad too.

But this sadness, compared to that of Liu Qianqian beside her, was insignificant.

At that moment, Liu Qianqian sat on the ground, her hands covering her head and buried in her knees, continuously crying. Li Xinyue felt that whatever comforting words she said now seemed so pale and weak.

After all, Fang Ren would never return.

"Why did this have to happen..."

Liu Qianqian looked very pained, her fingernails harshly digging into the hair beside her ears, her eyes shut tight, her teeth clenched.

She seemed to want to cover her ears, not wanting to hear any words of comfort.

She had thought that when she died, Fang Ren would never know about the things between them, but as it turned out, Fang Ren died never knowing what she had given him.

Outside the Fang Family's Large Formation, where Fang Ren had saved her, she finally mustered the courage not even death could deter to have him.

She thought that now she finally had the courage, no great difficulty could stop her, only to find that the world didn't give her a chance.

At the instant of Xia Yuntian's appearance, the Hundred Martial Divine Weapon in Mu Huiqing's hands abruptly stopped, and her bloodshot eyes gradually turned icy. She saw no indication from the old man that he would let her in.

Over half an hour had passed since the battle's end, and although the Tiandao Sword Sect was situated in a valley, communication was never neglected. There's no way Xia Yuntian would still be oblivious to the situation now.

Moreover, Xia Fu Lan must have already returned here through some means; she was definitely already inside the Sword Sect at this moment.

Looking at Mu Huiqing, disheveled and brimming with inexorable rage, a complex expression emerged on Xia Yuntian's aged face, filled with guilt and regret...

"How many of us died?" Xia Yuntian's voice trembled as he spoke.

He knew that the number of warriors who died on the battlefield could not be tallied in such a short period of time.

But at that moment, aside from those words, what else could make the conversation with Mu Huiqing slightly more dignified?

Hearing Xia Yuntian's words sparked an eruption of hatred in Mu Huiqing's heart that could not be contained.

Her blood-stained face clenched her teeth, and she started laughing coldly, "Why don't you go ask your daughter with those hands stained with human blood?"

Xia Yuntian spoke again, "How many people did she kill?"

Bang!

Mu Huiqing punched the barrier, and her cold laughter instantly turned into raging fury. "All of your Tiandao Sword Sect deserve to die ten thousand times over!"

Xia Yuntian's aged cheeks drooped slightly, "What do you wish to do?"

"Kill you as well!" Mu Huiqing stated without hesitation.

Xia Yuntian's hands clenched into fists behind his back. Mu Huiqing was considered a genius of her generation; almost all of the world's older generation of top practitioners had been in contact with her.

As Leader of the Tiandao Sword Sect, Xia Yuntian himself had mentored Mu Huiqing in her youth at Mu Family Manor, which made him somewhat of a half-teacher to her.

Now that Mu Huiqing wanted to kill him, the pain in his heart was still inevitable.

But he did not blame Mu Huiqing; he knew she was right. If he had not provided Xia Fu Lan with her privileged status, if he had not shielded and indulged Xia Fu Lan in everything, allowing her to become brazen, then today's situation would not have arisen.

"Aside from me, do you also want to kill the other disciples of the Sword Sect?" Xia Yuntian asked.

"They deserve to die ten thousand times over!" Mu Huiqing affirmed her statement once again.

"They are innocent."

"Everyone killed by the Void beast with your daughter's help is innocent!"

"The fault lies with Fu Lan and with me, but certainly not with them."

"Shut up!"

Mu Huiqing raised the Divine Weapon again, looking as if she would continue with her assault on the Formation.

Seeing this, Xia Yuntian said, "Wait a little longer."

"Don't even think about it!"

Mu Huiqing said as she struck the barrier with the Divine Weapon.

She knew what Xia Yuntian was waiting for.

He was waiting for the army from the Central Area. As soon as the Central Area's troops arrived, he would make Xia Fu Lan come out and admit her guilt.

Mu Huiqing was very clear about this; the old man would not evade this matter.

But by then, Xia Yuntian would definitely have the their army stop her, stop her from killing the other disciples of the Tiandao Sword Sect.

Because those disciples truly were innocent.

This was also something Mu Huiqing understood well.

But her current mindset had gone beyond madness; she did not care who was innocent, she only wanted to vent all the agonies that Fang Ren had suffered before his death upon everyone around Xia Fu Lan.

She knew the army would stop her from decimating indiscriminately, which was why she flew at full speed, shaking off all the troops, and came here alone – she intended to annihilate the Tiandao Sword Sect.
