Crown Prince Yan suddenly clenched the Jade Bi. "Don’t you want to know why Jhiang Chenyu made a move before?"
Sui Yi said nothing, just watched the two of them.
What Sui Yi wanted to know, the High Priest also wanted to know, and it could only be learned from these people.
So...
"Back then, because you entered the Ninefold Demon Tower and drove the Witch Spirit Court mad, they wanted to slaughter all living beings. Medicine King Valley had to intervene, so that Loulan led the Witch Spirit Court to kill every single person of Medicine King Valley without mercy... Do you know how many people Medicine King Valley had? The Wizard Tribe’s wizards numbered in the tens of thousands, while Medicine King Valley’s territory was vast, with countless villages and cities under its command. A full million people lay dead across a hundred li because of the Witchcraft Curse Resentment released by your Witch Spirit Court wizards. No matter how much Royal court politics and worldly scheming were involved in it, you still owe Jhiang Chenyu an entire Medicine King Valley."
This was something Sui Yi didn’t know, and the High Priest didn’t know either.
So she froze for a moment.
Gong Jiu and the others were also stunned.
In fact, once they learned Sui Yi and Li Luo traveled back and forth through different times and spaces, clever as they were, they also guessed that Sui Yi and Jiang Chenyu absolutely came from the same timeline, and knew they had both been entangled with the same man.
But they had never imagined it carried such deep blood hatred.
Gong Jiu and Flower Demon exchanged a glance. No wonder from the very beginning Jiang Chenyu’s attitude toward Sui Yi had been so ambiguous between kindness and malice.
There was her own respect and fondness toward Sui Yi, and also the killing intent stemming from her family’s blood feud...
She endured and endured, but it finally erupted in Peach Blossom Source. And looking at this Dragon King and her Black Blood, they seemed to belong to the same species—humans turned into... what?
Sui Yi fell silent for a while. Her expression and gaze didn’t change at all. By rights, she should have been tormented with remorse over this, yet she wasn’t. She only said, "Even so, that’s still between me and her. Besides, maybe killing people needs a reason, but killing you all... doesn’t."
Shura and Crown Prince Yan suddenly understood Sui Yi had been fishing for information before!
She wanted to know about the memories the High Priest lost that year, and what happened after the High Priest entered the Ninefold Demon Tower!
That was why she hadn’t rushed to kill them!
This person was no longer that fragile Sui Yi. A few simple words could no longer shatter her mind!
She still wanted to kill them now!
Sui Yi pressed both hands down!
The spatial strength ground downwards.
The earth beneath the two kept sinking and cracking, their bones constantly splintering!
Crown Prince Yan suddenly sacrificed his Essence Blood from between his brows, one scarlet drop carrying a mighty Human Emperor aura...
As the Crown Prince of the first dynasty’s Imperial Court, Crown Prince Yan naturally possessed the Human Emperor Fate Pattern. In fact, his earlier words had not been wrong. If the High Priest hadn’t instructed Jun Yuqing, making the latter grow stronger and then overthrow the Imperial Court orthodoxy, then the one who would ultimately inherit the throne would certainly have been Crown Prince Yan, rightful in name and strongest in power.
And as the Human Emperor aura burst forth, Zhao Nian suddenly went berserk, the Emperor’s Vessel’s power was drawn forth!!!!
The entire space shook and trembled, Crown Prince Yan roared, "Break it!!"
Zhao Nian’s hand aimed at Yi!
Earlier, numerous Void-breaking powers had been floating in the sky, layer upon layer protecting Yi, who was holding the Jade Infant.
But could they resist Zhao Nian’s Emperor’s Vessel power?
When Giant Light burst from Zhao Nian’s palm...
Everyone smelled the stench of death...
No way to dodge! It was too fast!
So fast that...
Suddenly, a figure appeared before them.
Sui Yi seized Crown Prince Yan and blocked in front of them....
The Giant Light blasted into Crown Prince Yan’s body.
Total destruction, total restoration!
The terrifying Black Blood kept surging out, evaporating, and regenerating over and over....
Yet just then, the Jade Bi in Crown Prince Yan’s hand gave a crack and split open a fissure.
Fine, when Giant Light hits a person, would it really avoid the Jade Bi?
As soon as the Jade Bi split, power surged out.
Yi suddenly felt the Jade Infant in her hand whoosh as it flew out!
"Sui Yi, careful!"
Sui Yi turned her head just in time to see the Jade Infant flying toward her...
Boom!
As the Jade Bi’s energy mass enveloped Sui Yi and Crown Prince Yan, the Jade Infant shot in...
They had tried desperately to keep it away from Sui Yi, yet in the end it still went to her.
Is this fate?
When the Jade Infant plunged into the energy mass, everyone saw Sui Yi’s aura inside that mass instantly go chaotic.
Shura and Crown Prince Yan both felt their chance had come!
Swish!
Crown Prince Yan, with his Immortal Body, tore free of Sui Yi’s grip on him and burst out of the energy mass, while Shura shot up from below, raising the Asura Blade and bellowing, "Kill!"
Slaughter erupted once more!
Gong Jiu and the others had thought the army of the dead would no longer aid them, but that wasn’t the case.
"Make those dead souls stop," Shura shouted to Crown Prince Yan.
"The fixed commands cannot be violated, it’s useless," Crown Prince Yan said darkly. "Just focus on killing these Earth cultivators. As for her... the perfect human body will put her in the weakest state, and then together we can..."
His words suddenly broke off.
Because Sui Yi had willingly grabbed the Jade Infant.
On the other side, Wu Jue, whose soul was branded together with Sui Yi’s, opened his eyes, looked at her, and frowned. "Lunatic!"
This time, when he cursed Sui Yi, he actually earned Li Luo and Natasha’s agreement.
They had also guessed what Sui Yi intended to do.
Seeing Sui Yi’s move, many people were frightened, including the Dragon King and Shura!
Madwoman!
Sui Yi was indeed a madwoman.
The moment the Jade Infant touched her hand, the terrifying suppression made her entire soul...
But she also seized the Jade Bi.
Jade Bi in one hand, Jade Infant in the other, Crown Prince Yan and Shura suddenly felt her gaze on them.
That kind of look was somewhere between Sui Yi and the High Priest.
Will!
In an instant, the two felt their bodies being locked!
They were horrified!
Crown Prince Yan and Shura simultaneously sprang away!
But two translucent hands of will had already seized them.
Crown Prince Yan’s head was clenched. His pupils nearly split, and all the blood in his body surged forth, rushing toward Zhao Nian.
Only one command.
—Kill her, kill her!!!
Boom—Shura was crushed in the void, Asura Power raging madly.
He saw within that cluster of energy Sui Yi’s power rising and sinking, one moment frail, the next drawing fresh strength from the Jade Bi; amid that chaos, her aura kept shifting.
Until it reached a peak.
Zhao Nian, under Crown Prince Yan’s orders, aimed the Giant Light at Sui Yi...
Just as he was about to strike, just as Crown Prince Yan and Shura were exulting, they suddenly heard Zhao Nian’s hazy murmur:
"No, can’t hurt her, no, can’t hurt her..."
Zhao Nian dully repeated that sound... his wooden expression suddenly twisted into ferocity.
"Whoever hurts her deserves to die!"
But the hand he had raised turned and pointed at Crown Prince Yan...
"No!!!" Shura and Crown Prince Yan roared at the same time...
In that instant, Shura chose self‑destruction!
And the direction of his self‑destruction was toward the sky...
Zhao Nian’s annihilation joined with Sui Yi’s will.
Crown Prince Yan was swallowed by light.
Boom!
The fissure in the sky split open yet another crack.
The double barrier was torn apart.
Amid that rending and ruin, the energy cluster shrank, and beside Sui Yi, another person appeared.
A woman in ethereal white.
She opened her eyes, and the earth seemed desolate and boundless.
How terrifying is the High Priest?
In the midst of his self‑detonation, Shura saw that familiar gaze... yes, this was the High Priest.
A dread from the bones, a fear.
Impossible to suppress.
Yet never resigned.
"The High Priest, she has arrived."
This was a curse and resentment sent by Shura’s true body from that distant Dimensional Realm.
As the light and energy faded, the double rift in the sky became irreparable; the Black Armored Army, headless as a swarm of dragons without a leader, only grew more frenzied.
The High Priest and Sui Yi stood side by side.
The Jade Infant floated before them, cradling the Jade Bi as it slowly rotated in the air.
Neither of them dared to touch her.
Sui Yi said weakly, "What you refused to let me know, I’m afraid she’ll tell me herself..."
The High Priest looked at her, then turned her face away. "I only thought... it should be mine to bear. There was no need to make you shoulder it."
"Am I not you?"
The High Priest started, then lifted her gaze to the sky. "She is coming—God’s Jasper."
For God’s Jasper of the Divine Race, descending to Earth is far, far more difficult than it is for Shura. But she doesn’t need her true body to descend, not even an avatar; she can simply mobilize the Foreign Lands army.
With the Black Armored Army added, it would be enough to wipe out Earth three or four times over.
And the clouds in the sky shifted.
Her will had already arrived.
Within the torn second‑layer space, the face Sui Yi had once seen inside the Gate of Life and Death—that woman.
That face was condensed from ten thousand layers of cloud, drawn with lifelike precision, indeed peerlessly beautiful; those eyes locked on the High Priest.
The High Priest looked back at her.
Has time been so long that neither of them has changed?
Long, long ago, God’s Jasper already disliked her, probably because she was the Divine Race leader created by Shen Zhiyue, yet she was not the one Shen Zhiyue valued most.
Jealousy breeds hatred.
The Divine Race and the Human Race are, in truth, not so different.
The High Priest’s gaze lightly swept over a charred corpse below—Crown Prince Yan’s body?
Her eyes withdrew without a second thought.
Fine, those who have seen the High Priest can still cope; those who haven’t... like Black and the others, they look at Sui Yi, look at Wu Jue, then look at the High Priest.
There’s only one thought in their heads—We thought Sui Yi was already top‑tier, but now another one in white shows up... this one has got to be the final boss.
She met God’s Jasper’s gaze.
The two of them seemed to occupy half the sky.
Of course, God’s Jasper is far from having the soul‑shaking presence of Shen Zhiyue.
At least that’s what Li Luo believes.
But she is terrible enough.
For instance, the clouds behind God’s Jasper seem to be her very body; with their rolling churn, is a third army about to descend?
They needed no language.
The hostility was irreversible.
A force drew down from above, stripping all the air away.
It grasped for the Jade Infant.
The High Priest hesitated only for a second before reaching out her hand.
She spoke a single sentence.
"If you and I can both survive this calamity, Earth will not be destroyed."
"If you and I cannot, only one of the High Priest and Sui Yi can remain."
Her fingertip lightly fell upon the Jade Infant’s body.
At that gentle touch, the crack in the Jade Bi within the Jade Infant’s arms fractured along its fragile seam, the gap spreading.
Pop!
It burst open, memories spinning.
The Jade Bi—the High Priest’s Jade Bi, the one upon which she had stood in the Empty Court.
This Jade Bi had witnessed the rise and fall of the Wizard Tribe, the collapse of dynasties, and that war between gods and the Human Race...
In the sky appeared fragment after fragment of chaotic memory.
Fragments of the memories the High Priest had once lost.
