Chapter 537: Grand Finale

The slightly rough big hand stroked her hair, "You have suffered."

Kang Ying shook her head, "Yun chu? My daughter?"

Taken away, the only thing she couldn't let go of was her daughter; she persisted to this day, and the only thing that let her persist was Jiang Yunchu.

Jiang Zeyang pointed upward; the golden and red lights above had become indistinguishable.

"That red light is Yun chu."

"Ying Ying, we've come to save you." Jiang Zeyang set aside all his worries, but when he raised his head to look at the distant battlefield, he felt helpless for the first time.

It was his daughter's battlefield, yet he felt isolated from it.

Just then, a surge of spiritual power suddenly appeared from behind.

"Is this... a promotion?" Everyone looked toward the back, at the person protected by all the black-clad people, the general of the general's manor.

Had he been promoted?

Ning Chengyan was filled with urgency; he knew that after Yun chu entered Zhongzhou, she bid farewell to her imperial brother and left Da Ning.

But he couldn't find any trace of Yun chu, and at that moment he suspected that the Divine Palace had done something.

The Promotion Disk pointed to... the Lost Land!

After adjusting the Promotion Disk, when he went to the Lost Land, he entered a secret realm and became trapped there.

When he emerged from the secret realm, he never expected the Lost Land to have disappeared.

……

The road to find his wife was so long.

Now seeing that battlefield, he could not intervene.

He originally wanted to suppress his cultivation level, fearing his mindset couldn't keep up, but now he can't wait any longer.

"Ning Chengyan!"

"Bring Yun chu back safely." Lao Liu looked at the man in black and shouted.

Ning Chengyan removed his mask; beneath the black mask was a face familiar to many.

"Good."

He nodded, not knowing who this person was.

But he would spare no effort to bring Yun chu home.

The battle above continued, but with one person joining, the original two-sided battle became a three-sided battle.

Jiang Yunchu's mouth corner bled, her eyes crimson, her white robes already soaked in blood.

The Divine Palace Master opposite was no better; his gray robes were now torn to shreds, revealing the shining spiritual garments underneath.

"Who exactly are you?"

The Divine Palace Master had asked this question for the second time; in his life he had offended and schemed against many.

But he had never encountered anyone like the one before him.

Her bone age was under thirty, while he had cultivated in the Divine Palace for nearly a hundred years without ever leaving.

"Jiang Yunchu!"

She lightly laughed, "Palace Master, you have too many enemies to remember them all."

Her curved brows and eyes showed no fear at all.

"No, I'm quite sure." The Palace Master looked at Jiang Yunchu, feeling as if he had missed something.

Jiang Yunchu looked at him, "First, I must thank the Palace Master, for your mercy in not killing me when I was born, which let me live."

"Also thank the Palace Master for sending me to the Lost Land when I ascended, giving me the chance to meet my ancestors and receive their spiritual power."

"Furthermore, thank the Palace Master, for your greed has led you step by step to today."

Divine Palace!

In Zhongzhou it is a colossal entity; if it hadn't incurred public wrath, how could it have met today's fate?

"My mother is called Kang Ying."

Finally, that name sealed in memory was spoken by Jiang Yunchu.

As for that Palace Master, his brows furrowed; he was a natural furnace, but her body contained wood core poison, so he could not touch her.

He plotted and designed, taking the essence of the wood core, yet still could not dispel the wood core poison within her.

He had schemed for thousands of years, never expecting it to amount to nothing in the end.

"Let's leave catching up at that."

"Today, you die, I live." Jiang Yunchu's Crimson Sky sword seemed to sense her master's emotions, emitting a faint sword hum.

The Palace Master saw Jiang Yunchu, the corner of his mouth twitching, "Ignorant child, do you think this is my trump card?"

At this moment, the Palace Master laughed heartily, "Haha——"

Afterward, his figure gradually faded.

Jiang Yunchu's eyes widened suddenly; this was the true form, she was certain, yet why was it like this?

But……

"How could this be?"

The figure that had just disappeared let out a startled cry not far away.

Because a black silhouette stood guard beside his avatar, Ning Chengyan looked at the person before him and said, "My young princess consort has just arrived in Zhongzhou and does not understand the switching between true form and specific avatar."

"But……"

"Who told you to bully my princess consort for not knowing?" The Gentleman's Sword, eager to break free of its sheath, in Da Ning had to learn disguise; every time it tried to draw, it would be beaten by its master.

Today, finally able to have a proper fight.

"Over these many years, your wicked deeds are countless, and they have nothing to do with me."

"You took my mother away and schemed against my Young Princess Consort." Ning Chengyan looked at the Hall Master, a smile on his face.

"Today, why not let everyone see what kind of person the lofty Hall Master of the Divine Hall really is."

As Ning Chengyan's words fell, the Divine Hall's Hall Master seemed to go mad, "You dare!"

This time, his golden longsword had no reservations; he swung it directly.

Jiang Yunchu also arrived, the three of them became entangled in battle, but above the Rootless River a huge screen appeared, playing a boy's voice.

He was an orphan, a child rescued from the jaws of wolves by his foster parents.

But when he was eight, other children mocked him, mocking his parents as worthless.

He returned home, took out a kitchen knife, and killed his foster parents outright……

Those who saw the scene gasped in shock; the foster parents, unwilling to spare food or clothing, worked every day just to give him a good life, yet this wolf cub!

This wolf cub would have been better off dying then in the wolf's jaws.

"Ah! I will kill you all, I will kill you all!"

That Hall Master, now gone mad, this is the deepest place in his heart—it's all them: why are they so poor? Why can't they give him good cultivation resources? Why let him be mocked?

They deserve to die!

The person in golden robes shouted loudly, "They deserve to die! They deserve to die!"

Everyone thought the story ended here, but the scene shifted and another appeared.

This boy had grown up, becoming friends with a boy and a girl; the three were as close as brothers and sisters, sworn together.

The two boys gradually grew into men, learning what joy is.

That girl liked someone else……

Yet he outwardly blessed them, but when the two married, he gave them poison, then forced everyone to watch him and the girl consummate their marriage.

In the end…… when that man took his revenge, he was killed by him.

Upon hearing the news, the girl directly committed suicide.

"Beast! This beast!"

As it turns out, the lofty Hall Master of the Divine Hall is actually so pitiful.

Jiang Yunchu raised her eyebrows, looking at the Divine Hall's Hall Master, "In the midnight reverie, have you ever dreamed of them coming to claim your life?"

"They deserve to die; I am clearly better than him, I am clearly kinder to her, so why doesn't she like me? Why?"

"In this world, everything I want is mine!"

Looking at the completely mad person, Ning Chengyan and Jiang Yunchu exchanged a glance—the moment had arrived!

"Let's end it!"

A white and a red sword, one before the other, pierced the Divine Hall's Hall Master's body.

One sword pierced his divine sense, another pierced his dantian.

That immense golden spiritual power slowly spread, vanishing between heaven and earth.

The colossal Divine Hall, with the Hall Master's demise, also slowly withdrew from Zhongzhou.

"Yun chu."

Jiang Yunchu could no longer hold on; in crossing the stage challenge, she expended a great deal of mental energy.

Moreover, her taut string could finally loosen.

"Yun chu." Ning Chengyan held her in his arms, looking at her pale face, lips devoid of color.

Kang Ying and Jiang Zeyang hurried over, "What's wrong with Yun chu?"

Ning Chengyan lifted his head, "She's exhausted; she needs proper rest."

How exactly has she spent these days?

The Jiang family patriarch slightly furrowed his brows; when looking at Jiang Yunchu, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

He sensed the aura of Old Three on the little girl's body—could he himself be becoming senile?

Old Three had long been dead.

Between heaven and earth, how could his aura still exist?

The tumultuous Divine Hall battle finally drew its curtain; aside from the Rootless River, half of it was dyed red, and it has not dissipated for nearly ten thousand years.

"One bow to heaven and earth!"

"Two bows to the parents!"

"Husband and wife bow to each other!"

Looking at the man in red robes, holding his beloved woman, every glance of his is filled with tenderness.

"Yun chu, I have finally married you."

Everything he had not given her, he will now make up for.

Jiang Yunchu said nothing; merely, beneath the great red veil, the corners of her lips twitched slightly.

"Mother."

"Mother."

Two voices sounded from one side; a man led a girl, and both children had grown up.

Ning Hanmo took off his usual black attire, now wearing clothes of black and red.

And beside him, Yue Yue wore a light peach-red.

"Mother, we've grown up; when will you give us a little brother or sister?" Yue Yue glanced at her brother beside her, then asked with a playful smile.

In the hall, everyone laughed until they bent forward and backward.

On the wedding night, Ning Chengyan slowly lifted her veil, beholding a face like peach blossoms.

"Yun chu, I have finally married you."

This sentence, even if he says it a thousand times, ten thousand times, he will never tire.

In this life, he loves only one person.

Until white hair, they will not part.
