Chapter 222: Feng Yan is actually... (A transitional chapter, a bit filler-heavy)

Zhu Yan had a tall figure, and there was a hint of coldness on her face.

As the two came out, Zhu Yan thought of something: "Miaomiao, once the affairs of Jing Country are settled, what do you want to do?"

Qian Miaomiao was slightly stunned and shook her head: "I don't know. Perhaps I will find a place to live in seclusion."

Zhu Yan smiled: "On Dengfeng Island, you even ran into that classmate of yours. The fate between you two is truly not shallow."

Qian Miaomiao touched her radio and looked up at Zhu Yan: "Gu Wu seems very interested in you, you..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Zhu Yan: "Gu Wu is a hypocrite; I have no interest in him."

"In this world, there is only one person qualified for me to offer my admiration to voluntarily, and that is the Dragon Emperor of Jiuzhou!"

"Haha." Qian Miaomiao laughed.

She knew that Zhu Yan had heard stories of the Dragon Emperor of Jiuzhou since she was very young.

Having lived deep in darkness since childhood, the Dragon Emperor was a ray of light in her spiritual world.

"I wonder what kind of changes occurred with the Black Gate and those Demon Kings?" Zhu Yan quickly entered a focused state.

"I am ninety-nine percent certain that they have fallen," Lan Xue said with a hint of doubt in his voice. "However, who exactly was the person who struck? Why did I not perceive it?"

"Ah?"

Suddenly, Qian Miaomiao let out a scream, and her face turned pale in an instant.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Yan looked over quickly, raising her vigilance.

"Feng Yan... Feng Yan's home... is gone." Qian Miaomiao clenched her hands, her nails digging into her flesh, but she did not notice; her attention remained fixed on the front.

Just a few evenings ago, she was still sitting in the courtyard, the moon bright and the stars sparse, talking heart-to-heart with Feng Yan through the night.

Now, the Feng Family's home was gone.

It had vanished completely, as if it had disappeared into thin air.

Zhu Yan also frowned: "What is going on?"

She also remembered seeing buildings here just a few days ago.

Yet, the buildings had vanished into thin air, with not even a single brick or tile remaining.

A worried expression appeared on Qian Miaomiao's face: "Feng Yan... did he actually leave?"

Zhu Yan hugged Qian Miaomiao's shoulders: "Rest assured, he listened to your warning and must have left."

"Something must have happened here."

"This kind of method?" Lan Xue's voice continued, filled with doubt. "It is somewhat similar to a god; it is truly bizarre."

Lan Xue also knew that when the world underwent a great change, all the gods could not adapt to the rules of the Qiyuan World and eventually fell.

This world could no longer support the existence of Eighth Rank gods.

And before their eyes, what was this?

Was this really not a god taking action?

At whose hands did the Black Gate and the two Demon Kings die?

Lan Xue's heart was in chaos, unable to judge.

Qian Miaomiao looked ahead, a sense of emptiness in her heart, and she murmured: "Feng Yan."

Time never waits for anyone.

Seventy-three years of time might be a lifetime for an Ordinary person.

For a Transcendental, it is also not a short span of years.

Seventy-three years have passed, and Jing Country has undergone great changes.

The Human Race and the Demon Race have signed a ceasefire agreement.

The struggle between the Academy faction and the aristocratic faction, surprisingly, ended with the victory of the Academy faction.

The members of the parliament are concurrently held by the deans of various academies.

The New Method has appeared, and the manufacturing and production of Clones have been halted.

All Clones have had their rights greatly improved.

At the Tianduan Mountain Range, Qian Miaomiao looked at the birds in the sky and let out a sigh: "Zhu Yan, the invasion of the Demon Race is likely coming."

Back then, the struggle between the Academy faction and the aristocratic faction was precisely because they, the Dawn Bringers, secretly supported the Academy faction, which led to the Academy faction's final victory.

Now, the entire Jing Country is united as one.

Zhu Yan looked at the Heavenly Vault ahead, where demonic energy was surging and constantly seeping through.

The passage between the Qiyuan World and the Demon World seemed to have cracked open.

This opening was constantly growing larger.

Once it grows to a certain extent, a large number of the Demon Race will invade.

For Jing Country, this is a great catastrophe.

"I fear that in less than ten years, this rift will expand," Zhu Yan said, her eyes filled with fighting spirit. "At that time, we will wield the Heaven Severing Artifact to Slay the incoming Demon Race, and finally, we will block the rift, and Jing Country will be worry-free."

Lan Xue also spoke up at this time: "Correct, as long as we can stop that wave of Demon Race invasion ten years from now, Jing Country will enjoy a thousand years of peace."

"It is a pity that we cannot block the rift now; otherwise, we wouldn't have to take risks in ten years," Qian Miaomiao said.

"Where in the world are there so many good things?" A young man chewing on a dogtail grass held his head, looking extremely lazy.

"Indeed, eight or nine out of ten things in this world are unsatisfactory, and perfect outcomes are even rarer." Gu Wu was dressed in white, spotless.

"Once we resolve the matter of the Demon Race invasion, will we have achieved success and fame?" The young man chewing on the dogtail grass had a smile on his face.

"What about the Ghosts?" Qian Miaomiao frowned. "The Ghosts have always been low-key and mysterious. In recent years, the Ghosts of Jing Country have all returned to the Ghost Domain. I don't know what they are planning."

A sharp glint flashed in Gu Wu's eyes: "It is better for these Ghosts to remain low-key. If they stir up trouble, the Demon Race will be their fate!"

This time, the reason humans were able to sign a ceasefire agreement with the Demon Race was due to the many contributions made by the Dawn Bringers.

It can be said that with the Heaven Severing Artifact in hand, they beat many Demon Kings into submission.

"We can talk about the Ghost matters later; right now, the greatest threat above our heads is the Demon Race invasion," Lan Xue reminded.

Gu Wu nodded: "The Demon Race all deserve to die. Once they come over, I will definitely make them understand the power of the Heaven Severing Artifact!"

Everyone nodded.

The Demon Race was the greatest threat.

Gu Wu looked at Qian Miaomiao and then said: "I contacted Jian Lie a few days ago, and he said there is still no trace of Feng Yan."

"Thank you." Qian Miaomiao nodded.

Seventy years ago, when she parted ways with Feng Yan, she had not seen him since.

Recalling the upheaval that occurred seventy years ago, a trace of worry always lingered in her heart.

"Hehe." At this moment, the youth chewing on a dogtail grass suddenly laughed, "I was drinking with Zhan Laotou a while ago and actually learned some things about Feng Yan."

Zhan Laotou refers to the principal of the Dark Light Academy, now one of the council members.

"What things?" Qian Miaomiao asked hurriedly.

The young man chewing on the dogtail grass then looked at Zhu Yan, blinking his eyes with a smile: "I'm afraid that if I say this, it will affect the harmony within our team."

Zhu Yan laughed then: "What does this have to do with me?

Could it be that my father was actually not an Ordinary john, but a descendant of some great family?

And that I actually have a marriage contract with Feng Yan?"

Qian Miaomiao looked at the young man chewing the dogtail grass: "Cut the crap!"

"Zhan Laotou told me that Feng Yan once went to Jiuzhou."

"Yes, I know that." This matter, Qian Miaomiao knew.

"Later, Feng Yan returned to Jiuzhou, and many experts from Jiuzhou came to the Dark Light Academy looking for Feng Yan."

"What did Jiuzhou want with Feng Yan?" Zhu Yan's eyes held a smile, "Could it be that Feng Yan did something in Jiuzhou that angered both gods and men?"

"Feng Yan... might be the Dragon Emperor of Jiuzhou.

The people of Jiuzhou are all looking for him."

"What?" Zhu Yan widened her eyes, "He is the Dragon Emperor of Jiuzhou."

Qian Miaomiao was also stunned, then a look of pleasant surprise appeared on her face, and her heart let out a sigh of relief: "If he is the Dragon Emperor, then he must not have been in danger at that time!"

She had always been worried and blamed herself.

After all, she had told Feng Yan about the danger back then.

As a result, Feng Yan, as well as those demons and Demon Kings, all disappeared.

She was afraid that Feng Yan hadn't left at the time and had ultimately fallen, so she had been looking for him for all these years but never found him.

"Is this true?" The usually cold and pretty face of Zhu Yan also showed a different expression.

"Naturally, it is true." The youth chewing the dogtail grass had a smile on his face.

"He is actually the Dragon Emperor." Zhu Yan took a deep breath, her full chest rising and falling with it, "That is to say, seventy years ago, those Demon Kings and Demon Kings were very likely to have fallen at his hands?"

Zhu Yan had seen Feng Yan a few times, but rarely had direct contact.

Her impression of Feng Yan was merely that he had a good temperament.

She did not expect that the man who had always been low-key was actually the Dragon Emperor she had been thinking about all along.

Feng Yan... is the Dragon Emperor!

Beside her, Qian Miaomiao suddenly remembered that when they parted ways, Feng Yan had asked if he should help her Slay the Demon Race and Demon Race that were pursuing her?

At the time, Qian Miaomiao had taken it as a joke.

Now it seems, Feng Yan had not lied to her!

Beside them, Gu Wu was also shaken, feeling a lingering fear in his heart.

"He is actually the Dragon Emperor; if we could invite him to help us deal with the Demon Race, the Demon Race would naturally be no match for us," Gu Wu tentatively suggested.

"If he really is the Dragon Emperor, he might... have gone to the Immortal World of Jiuzhou by now," Lan Xue said.

"The Immortal World?" Qian Miaomiao felt a moment of loss, then felt happy for Feng Yan.

"When things here are settled, I want to go to Jiuzhou to cultivate the Immortal Dao; I want to go to the Immortal World and see the Dragon Emperor!" Zhu Yan's eyes were filled with shimmering light.

The Dragon Emperor she had always admired was actually still alive!

"Haha." The young man chewing the dogtail grass watched this scene and let out a smug laugh.

Beside him, Gu Wu's gaze was deep, but he also let out a sigh of relief.

If the Dragon Emperor was truly still alive and got involved in this matter, it would have a huge impact on their plans.

"Alright, go back and cultivate, and strive to fully refine the Heaven Severing Artifact." The young man chewing the dogtail grass looked extremely leisurely; he was just about to stand up when suddenly, his eyes froze.

"What is that?"

The others looked over quickly.

They saw that in the distant Heavenly Vault, the entire horizon was dyed red.

Countless divine lights flickered, and the Heavenly Vault was filled with colorful lines everywhere.

Red, green, blue... every color that could be named, that humans could perceive, and that humans could not perceive, were all there.

The entire Heavenly Vault presented a strange array of colors.

That place was none other than the Ghost Domain.

"This is... someone has become a god and is being received into the God Kingdom?"

"No, the divine light for receiving into the God Kingdom only has one color, representing the God Position. Why are there so many colors here? What exactly is going on?"

Lan Xue was puzzled.

The four people present did not hesitate and flew toward the location of the Ghost Domain.

At the same time, throughout the entire Jing Country, all the powerhouses felt something.

At the Dark Light Academy, Wang Qiankun was embracing Gong Ting while playing chess together.

Suddenly, he overturned the chessboard with one hand, looked up at the Heavenly Vault, and laughed maniacally.

"The Azure Emperor... has finally descended, the Ancient Method... has hope!"

The aura on his body climbed continuously at this moment.
