Chapter 439: Sealing the Scar of the Sky
After watching Chen Jingchou's body dissipate into smoke, Duan Fengyun retracted the Xuanyuan Sword into the Void.
Duan Fengyun looked at the Demon-Suppressing Pot on the ground, then at the Eight Great Heavenly Kings of the Demon Race, as well as the Gold Protector, Water Protector, and others still lying outside the Tongtian Tower; Duan Fengyun picked up the Demon-Suppressing Pot, walked directly to the Eight Great Heavenly Kings and the others, and collected them into the Demon-Suppressing Pot.
Duan Fengyun knew he certainly could not exterminate all the members of the Demon Race, but he could let these people return to the Demon Realm and cause chaos there.
Presumably, after the Demon Lord died, the Demon Realm would surely fall into great disorder, and it would certainly take several thousand years for a new monarch to emerge in the Demon Realm.
Duan Fengyun tied the Demon-Suppressing Pot to his waist, then walked in front of Yu Xiaoxue and said:
"Miss Xiaoxue, our mission is not yet complete; let us finish our mission together!"
Yu Xiaoxue nodded and handed her hand directly to Duan Fengyun; Duan Fengyun took Yu Xiaoxue's hand in a gentlemanly manner, and then the two soared into the sky.
Under the gaze of everyone, Duan Fengyun and Yu Xiaoxue stood side by side before the Scar of the Sky.
Watching the demons still roaring incessantly within the Scar of the Sky, Duan Fengyun did not speak; he simply and silently took the Xuanyuan Sword out from the Void.
Duan Fengyun held the Xuanyuan Sword and slashed repeatedly into the Scar of the Sky; instantly, Sword Qi surged within the Scar of the Sky, and countless demons all died miserably under Duan Fengyun's Sword Qi.
After seeing Duan Fengyun's cruel methods, all the demons retreated several large steps.
Duan Fengyun said with disdain:
"A bunch of cowards who fear death!"
Duan Fengyun did not continue to attack; he untied the Demon-Suppressing Pot from his waist and threw it into the Scar of the Sky—let them cause internal chaos in the Demon Realm themselves.
Two bold demons stepped forward and opened the Demon-Suppressing Pot, and the Eight Great Heavenly Kings, the Gold Protector, and the Water Protector inside were poured out directly.
Upon sensing the air of the Demon Realm, the few of them opened their eyes one after another; seeing that they were in the Demon Realm and seeing Duan Fengyun and Yu Xiaoxue outside the Scar of the Sky, the Eight Great Heavenly Kings knew what had happened without needing to think.
Yes, their Demon Realm had been defeated again; just like several thousand years ago, their Demon Realm had been defeated by the lineage of the Xuanyuan Huangdi again.
And unlike several thousand years ago, several thousand years ago their Demon Lord was only sealed into the Scar of the Sky like them, but now their Demon Lord had been devoured by Chen Jingchou, and Chen Jingchou, barring any accidents, had already been killed by Duan Fengyun.
The few of them had fallen outside the Tongtian Tower, and the Tongtian Tower was directly isolated from the world, so they did not know about the battle between Duan Fengyun and Chen Jingchou, and later the Demon Lord.
They all opened their eyes and looked at Duan Fengyun, their eyes filled with hatred; it was precisely this man before them who had once again destroyed their Demon Race's ambition to dominate the Human Realm, Demon Realm, and God Realm.
This man, like his master, made the Eight Great Heavenly Kings and the others feel loathing and resentment.
Seeing the look in their eyes, Yu Xiaoxue spoke up:
"Duan Fengyun, you have already killed so many members of the Demon Race.
These people's eyes are filled with hatred for you; will you just let them go like this and not wipe them all out?"
Duan Fengyun laughed:
"Miss Xiaoxue, you don't know that if there were no lions and tigers in a jungle, what kind of fighting would occur among the remaining leopards, wolves, and other animals.
The current Demon Realm is like a jungle without lions and tigers; the remaining wolves and wild dogs will fight for dominance.

Let them have a chaotic brawl within the Demon Realm; without a few thousand years of recuperation, they will simply not produce a new monarch.
By that time, the strength of the Human Realm will have already surpassed several levels."
Hearing Duan Fengyun's words, Yu Xiaoxue nodded slightly; Duan Fengyun indeed had a point.
Duan Fengyun said:
"Alright, Miss Xiaoxue, let us begin.
You activate your Nuwa Power, and I will activate my Earth Emperor Power; let us seal the Scar of the Sky together."
After speaking, Duan Fengyun directly retracted the Xuanyuan Sword into the Void, then cast a Dharma seal with both hands; Yu Xiaoxue also cast a Dharma seal at the same time.
As their magical powers merged, the Scar of the Sky gradually began to close, and after a short while, the Scar of the Sky was completely sealed.
After sealing the Scar of the Sky, Duan Fengyun let out a loud shout and pushed the Red Piercing Demon Star away.
With this, the catastrophe of the Human Realm had finally ended.
Duan Fengyun and Yu Xiaoxue flew back to the Tongtian Tower, and Duan Fengyun nodded to Guyue Xianren:
"Old man, mission accomplished; the Scar of the Sky has been sealed once again.
This catastrophe of the Human Realm has ended."
Guyue laughed heartily, a rare sight:
"Hahahaha, Duan Fengyun, I truly did not misjudge you.
You brat, well done; you did not lose face for your master, Xuanyuan Huangdi."
The Queen of the Diren Tribe and Ran Weng also looked at Duan Fengyun with smiles; although the process was tortuous, the mission was ultimately completed.
This catastrophe of the Human Realm had been resolved, and the human world would usher in another thousand years of peace and tranquility.
Duan Fengyun walked up to Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke and said:
"How about it, Brother Yuwen, Ning Ke, when will you hold your happy event?
I am waiting to drink your wedding wine; after drinking your wedding wine, I should be leaving."
Originally, upon hearing the first half of Duan Fengyun's sentence, Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke were still blushing, but when they heard the second half, Yuwen Tuo became anxious instantly.
Yuwen Tuo said:
"Big Brother, why are you leaving so suddenly?"
Guyue also walked over and said:
"Duan Fengyun, why are you leaving just after resolving the catastrophe of the Human Realm?
Can't you stay for a couple of days?
You haven't had enough of the fine wine I have there yet."
Duan Fengyun smiled:
"Old man, you know about my affairs; after I finish the task my master gave me, I must go find my master."
Guyue nodded; he knew about Duan Fengyun's affairs, so Guyue said no more.
Upon hearing Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke discussing their wedding, Yu Xiaoxue could not help but feel a slight pain in her heart.
Having already experienced so many things, she already understood what the situation was.
However, regarding the marriage between Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke, Yu Xiaoxue was full of blessings.
She knew that after Yuwen Tuo and Yu Xiaoxue had been through so much, the two of them were truly a match made in heaven.
Duan Fengyun looked at the suddenly chilled atmosphere and said:
"It's not like I'm leaving right away, and it's impossible for your marriage with Ning Ke to be held immediately, Brother Yuwen, so I should still be able to stay for a while.
I have an idea; why don't we all go to Tianwai Village together to pick up Lady Yuwen, and while we're at it, cook some vegetables and drink some wine in Guyue Xianren's vegetable garden.
It's just that I don't know if Guyue Xianren would be willing."
Hearing this ice-breaking remark from Duan Fengyun, everyone laughed and turned their eyes toward Guyue.
Guyue saw everyone's gaze, pointed his finger at Duan Fengyun, and said:
"Duan Fengyun, you fellow, it seems you are still thinking about my vegetables and fine wine.
However, now that the great catastrophe of the Human Realm has been resolved, we should indeed celebrate!
Fine, today I will bleed a little and take the vegetables from my garden and my treasured fine wine to treat everyone."
"Many thanks, Guyue Xianren!"
"Many thanks, Guyue Xianren!"
Duan Fengyun and Yuwen Tuo both expressed their thanks at the same time.
Duan Fengyun and Yuwen Tuo each summoned their Xuanyuan Sword; Yu Xiaoxue, Guyue, and the Queen of the Diren Tribe stepped onto Duan Fengyun's Xuanyuan Sword, while Ran Weng and Ning Ke stepped onto Yuwen Tuo's Xuanyuan Sword.
Duan Fengyun and Yuwen Tuo each controlled their own Flying Sword and flew toward Tianwai Village.
At this moment, the great catastrophe of the Human Realm had been resolved, and everyone no longer needed to worry about the location of Tianwai Village being leaked, so the speed of Yuwen Tuo and Duan Fengyun's Sword Flight was extremely fast.
At noon, the group arrived at Tianwai Village by Sword Flight.
At this moment, Dan Yuwu was meticulously watering Guyue's treasures in the vegetable garden.
Seeing the figure of his mother, Yuwen Tuo shouted excitedly:
"Mother, I have returned!"
Dan Yuwu, who had been watering the plants, heard the voice coming from behind her, and the water ladle in her hand dropped directly to the ground.
Dan Yuwu turned around and saw Yuwen Tuo running toward her.
"Tuo'er!"
Seeing Yuwen Tuo return safe and sound, Dan Yuwu was also incredibly excited.
During this time, she had been unable to eat or sleep, worrying about Yuwen Tuo's safety.
Every day, Dan Yuwu was either praying to the heavens to protect Yuwen Tuo or taking care of Guyue's treasures in the vegetable garden to distract herself.
The mother and son hugged each other tightly, and Dan Yuwu patted Yuwen Tuo on the shoulder and said:
"Tuo'er, you have returned safely.
As long as you are safe!
As long as you are safe!"
A parent's expectation for their children is never great wealth or status, but rather that they are safe, sound, and healthy.
Seeing Yuwen Tuo return safely, Dan Yuwu felt that all her prayers during this time were worth it.
Yuwen Tuo hugged Dan Yuwu and said excitedly:
"Mother, Tuo'er is fine; haven't I returned safely, Mother!
Mother, the catastrophe of the Human Realm has been resolved, and the Demon Realm has been sealed by us once again; from now on, no one can ever tear us apart again."
Dan Yuwu pushed Yuwen Tuo away, nodded, and said with a look of certainty:
"Mother knows, of course Mother knows.
Mother believes that my Tuo'er can definitely do it.
My Tuo'er has finally not let down the surname Yuwen.
Xuanyuan Ancestor, do you see this?
Your descendant has not lost face for you!"
The Yuwen Imperial Clan had always considered themselves descendants of the Yellow Emperor, and today they had finally realized the glory of this surname.
At this time, Duan Fengyun walked into the vegetable garden and saw the vegetables meticulously irrigated by Dan Yuwu, sighing with emotion:
"My Lady, you must have put a lot of hard work into this vegetable garden during this time.
It is much better than when we arrived; Brother Yuwen and I originally wanted you to rest here for a while, but I didn't expect to have made you a laborer here; I am truly ashamed, truly ashamed."
Dan Yuwu saw the joking Duan Fengyun and hurriedly waved her hands:
"Mr. Duan, you are joking.
I usually have nothing to do while staying here alone.
So I came to irrigate this vegetable garden; I have to find something to do to pass the time, otherwise I wouldn't know how to stay in this Tianwai Village alone."
