In the Defense Hall, the sounds of fierce fighting continued to echo.
I estimated that after those seven masters teamed up to bring me down, they began to join forces to eliminate Wan and Xiao Xiao.
I just wondered how Furball was faring.
He hadn't made a move, and I hoped these people would spare that fool!
I had been defeated and had resigned myself to my fate.
The several masters in the courtyard, after receiving Leader's orders, began to form a series of incredibly intricate hand seals. The movements were unpredictable and dazzling, making it hard to see clearly, yet each seal felt profoundly mysterious, as if each gesture contained boundless secrets.
As these masters continued their sealing, I quickly sensed something unusual; an inexplicable pressure filled the air. It felt unique, like gunpowder wafting through the atmosphere—just one spark could cause the air to explode!
This is—
I was taken aback.
Boom!
At that moment, the ground suddenly began to tremble, and then an energy barrier slowly expanded, gradually enveloping us in this courtyard.
If that happened, Lu Jianguo would be unable to carry out his sniping!
Damn it, could this be the foundation of the Sun and Moon Alliance? They possessed such a terrifying energy barrier that could cover the entire headquarters in times of crisis, making it difficult to deliver a devastating blow to the Dao Alliance's headquarters!
Shaking mountains is easy; shaking the Sun and Moon Alliance is hard!
At this moment, I wanted nothing more than to stand up again and fight with my sword, but my skeleton was shattered and my organs ruptured. If it weren't for my life force being stubbornly strong enough to reach this final moment, entering a state of revival, I would have already been dead. Even so, I was barely hanging on by a thread; trying to stand up again was essentially a dream.
I couldn't get up!
Once those masters raised their Mountain Protection Barrier, they would be free to come over and take my head without hesitation!
Thinking of everything, those fallen brothers, I had to pull myself together!
I felt like a madman, muttering to myself incessantly. I had never feared death, nor had I ever feared my enemies, but at this moment, I suddenly felt afraid!
The three pieces of meteorite in my chest and pocket began to subtly resonate, and it felt as if a flame ignited within me. This was a miraculous power; it turned out that the energy emitted by the meteorite was activated by the Cataclysm, supplying strength to my body. This was the legendary Dragon Power.
As the complete Dragon Power coalesced within me, a wondrous scene unfolded. My Skeleton erupted with a loud crack, and an intense itch spread through my insides, yet my strength began to recover little by little!
Was this healing?
Could complete Dragon Power allow for self-healing?
I was utterly astonished. At this moment, the Dragon Power coursed through my body, continuously repairing me. My strength gradually revived, and my Killing Intent seemed to be rekindling!
I patiently waited, waiting for my rebirth, waiting to stand up again!
Boom!
The ground trembled. At that moment, the energy shield finally closed in. In an instant, a massive explosion occurred within the Defense Hall. With a thunderous roar, it completely collapsed.
Several dark figures surged upward from the ruins—there were Dao Alliance members among them, but only six remained; clearly one had been lost. Among them was a shadow—Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao soared up with the bowl and Furball in her arms and landed before me.
At that moment, Xiao Xiao had her back to me. I could only see her tattered clothes and numerous wounds that exposed bone beneath; she trembled all over.
"I did my best."
Suddenly, Xiao Xiao sighed softly. As she turned her head, I realized her face was mangled beyond recognition; it was almost unrecognizable as human, with white bones visible!
Her eyes were bloodshot, but when she looked at me, there was no ferocity or cruelty—only loyalty: "You have not wronged me. You treated me with the respect due to a national hero; I will repay you as such. Even if everyone else betrays you, I will not. Today I shall fight for you until death in honor of loyalty! However, I must apologize; Furball once secretly conspired with me. I will alter your fate and bring misfortune upon you—it seems that has come true!"
I remained silent, shaking my head frantically.
What does this have to do with you?
Whether you are here or not, this was bound to happen. After all, the Xia Family once basked in glory and instilled fear in others. Now, it seems that fate has decreed their downfall.
You see, when a person reaches a certain level of power, they have two choices: either ascend to the top by eliminating everyone in their path, standing above all others, or face death!
My grandfather and father never seized the rights of the Sun and Moon Alliance. Now, it is entirely normal for them to seek the extermination of the Xia Family!
The struggle for power has always been the most brutal. What does it have to do with you? It is I who has dragged you into this; after all, I bear the surname Xia!
"However, today was quite exhilarating. I detonated all my Eerie Energy and took down a master. That’s worth something!"
Xiao Xiao smiled lightly, but his blood-red eyes were filled with depth: "Although beings like us do not have Reincarnation, what if we did? If so, let’s be brothers in our next life. In this life, I am destined to wither away!"
With that, Xiao Xiao relaxed his arms, and the bowl he was holding fell to the ground. Covered in blood, his eyes closed tightly, he lay there, unaware of whether he was alive or dead. Xiao Xiao then collapsed with a thud!
Only Furball stood there in a daze. He still wore his usual expressionless face, but tears slowly streamed down his cheeks.
He merely glanced back at me without coming over to help. I didn’t understand why; his behavior had been so different lately. Then he turned away and walked further from me, leaving me with just four words: "I'm sorry, brother."
After that, he stood aside and no longer looked at me.
Was this his way of distancing himself for self-preservation?
A chill ran through my heart, but soon I felt a sense of relief.
What did it matter if he distanced himself? The boy wasn’t betraying me; he was simply protecting himself!
Understanding this eased any resentment within me. It was my fault as the older brother; this child had never lived a good life following me around. He had traveled across rivers and mountains at such a young age, enduring countless hardships while constantly teetering between life and death.
By leaving me behind, he could finally escape such a life!
Furball, I'm happy for you. You did the right thing!
You are willing to stay away from me to protect yourself; I can rest easy now. You are smart, unlike that fool, Xiao Xiao!
At this moment, I finally regained some strength, but my heart felt like ashes.
Bald Qiang, Big Mouth Lee...
They might already be dead.
Uncertain of life or death, Xiao Xiao is gone.
My brothers are no longer here; what am I still clinging to?
I bitterly smiled to myself. My physical injuries had mostly healed, but my Killing Intent felt somewhat drained. Without a second thought, I raised my hand and broke the Buddha Relic around my neck.
With the bonds of the deceased weighing upon me, what does this living person have left to cherish? What is there left to fear?
Might as well burn through the last of my Lifespan and fight with all I have!
