Chapter 181 He Died for Her Life (The End)
"Murong Qian! What are you doing here?" Yun Juan stared wide-eyed, her face full of disbelief as she loudly questioned.
The sound echoed in the empty space, as if carrying endless anger and surprise.
However, Murong Qian acted as if she hadn't heard anything, and didn't even spare Yun Juan a glance.
He simply stood there quietly, his posture as upright as a pine tree, exuding a cold aura. His indifferent gaze fell directly on Yun Juan, making one feel a chill in their heart.
Just then, a man dressed in black rushed over. Upon seeing Murong Qian, he immediately knelt on one knee and bowed his head to report, "Your Highness, you have arrived! The young master of the Underworld is putting up a desperate resistance, but please rest assured, just hold on a little longer, and we will soon break through their defenses!"
After speaking, the man kept his head down, not daring to look up at Murong Qian even once, for fear of offending this extremely noble person.
Upon hearing the words "Crown Prince," Yun Juan was taken aback for a moment, then sneered, "Crown Prince? Heh... So it's you! I never expected to meet you again under these circumstances."
His words were full of sarcasm.
Murong Qian remained silent, but a subtle change occurred in his eyes.
His initial indifference was gradually replaced by a deep longing, as if he could see through the clouds before him the figure that haunted his dreams hundreds of thousands of years ago.
Seeing that Murong Qian had no reaction, Yun Juan's anger grew even stronger.
She shouted, "Kill them! Even if it means fighting to the death, we must carve a bloody path through them!"
Before she finished speaking, she flashed forward like a ghost, rushing towards the enemy.
The weapon in his hand gleamed with a cold light, and every move he made contained immense power.
However, despite Yun Quan's best efforts, the difference in strength between the two sides was simply too great.
Before long, the guards beside her all knelt down, one of them anxiously crying out, "No, young master! We are no match for them! Continuing like this will only lead to our deaths!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Juan's heart sank. She looked around at her companions lying in pools of blood, and suddenly realized—the glimmer of hope that the underworld had been desperately searching for hundreds of thousands of years ago had always rested on her shoulders.
Thinking of this, she no longer hesitated, resolutely bit her finger, and sprinkled the blood into the air.
In an instant, a dazzling light shot into the sky, and a mysterious and ancient sacrificial array slowly emerged.
Yun Juan took a deep breath and muttered incantations.
As her incantation rang out, the great formation began to operate, and powerful energy fluctuations spread outwards from her center in all directions.
At this critical moment, Yun Juan's beautiful face revealed an extremely resolute expression. She made a shocking decision—to use her own life as a bargaining chip to ensure the eternal existence of the Underworld Clan.
Her graceful figure seemed to contain endless vitality, which was the very source of the birth and continuous reproduction of the Underworld race.
Now, she is determined to give back this vitality to her beloved people of the Underworld without reservation.
"No...no, Juan'er..." Murong Qian cried out in anguish, his eyes filled with terror and despair.
However, it was all too late. Despite his best efforts, he could not stop Yun Juan's resolute actions.
At the same time, Bai Yichen, who was standing to the side, also realized the seriousness of the matter as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Without hesitation, he bit his finger and flew into the air with Murong Qian, quickly drawing mysterious runes in the air.
In an instant, the ancient and powerful totem reappeared, shining with dazzling light.
However, before they could unleash any more techniques, an invisible, immense force swept in like a surging torrent, instantly engulfing the two of them.
As Murong Qian, Bai Yichen, and that harrowing memory were mercilessly swallowed up, time seemed to freeze at that moment.
The whole world fell into a deathly silence.
After an unknown amount of time, when Yun Juan slowly woke up, she found herself on the summit of Mount Buzhou, which towered into the clouds.
At this moment, she still maintained the posture of a deity, exuding an aura of holiness and inviolability.
"I...I'm dead, aren't I?" Yun Juan looked down at her hands with a heart full of doubt, only to see that all ten fingers were intact, showing no signs of death whatsoever.
This bizarre situation left her both astonished and confused: "What on earth is going on? Why am I still alive and well here, even though I feel like I've paid the price with my life? Is this just a terrible nightmare?"
All around was silent, except for gusts of cold wind howling past, blowing against Yun Juan's silky long hair.
She stood alone atop Mount Buzhou, a profound sense of loneliness welling up within her.
This loneliness does not stem from a momentary solitude, but rather from the sedimentation that comes with the vicissitudes of time, making it all the more profound and enduring.
“I remember now…they’re all dead…all dead…only I’m left…” Yun Juan remembered everything.
The seven fragments of the space are tiny figures she sculpted using her seven emotions.
As for the Dragon Lord of the human realm, he was formed from the evil thoughts of the immortal realm.
He was attacked by the celestial realm and his soul was torn apart.
It was him... he saved me...
But he... died...
As a goddess, Yun Quan should have been free from desires and wants...
But she still fell for him...
But this time he broke his promise...
"The Immortal Realm! Let's wash it clean with the divine water beneath Mount Buzhou! Too much evil is unworthy of an immortal!" Yun Juan waved her finger, and seawater spread across the Immortal Realm.
Yun Juan got up, dusted off her clothes, and returned to the mortal realm...
She led Murong Qian and her daughter Tang Luo and waited...
"Mother, when will Father come back?" Tang Luo also regained her memories.
The magic that Murong Qian had sealed contained Tang Luo's memories, and now that he is dead, all those memories have returned.
"It should be soon!" Yun Juan looked up at the sky.
Murong Qian had long since regained his memories and remembered Yun Juan, but he could not stop her from undergoing the tribulation.
She was killed by a group of people from the immortal realm, and the guardian she created from her spatial dimension sacrificed himself to save her life.
Now everyone is dead, only she is still alive...
Murong Qian had been helping her collect her seven emotions. On the day of the sacrifice, her three emotions, plus the four emotions that Murong Qian found, made up a total of seven emotions that all came together into her memories.
She remembered everything... but she couldn't kill everyone in the immortal realm!
God loved the world... but God had murderous thoughts, and thus became a fallen god!
Yun Quan drew water from Mount Buzhou to cleanse the evil thoughts in the celestial realm, and the Heavenly Dao imposed divine punishment upon her.
Yun Juan and Tang Luo have been waiting for Murong Qian at the Regent's Palace in the human realm...
But although the Demon Lord of yesteryear became her devoted follower, he never returned, for the sake of her life...
