Chapter 919: Heaven envies the talented
She turned around and walked quickly toward the direction of the Soul Lamp Hall.
She wanted to see for herself.
She wanted to confirm with her own eyes whether this news was true.
When she arrived at the Soul Lamp Hall, the elder guarding the Soul Lamp Hall saw her coming, and his expression changed drastically.
"Young Lady! Why are you here?"
The elder hurriedly stepped forward, stopped Yu Jiaoxue, and said in a nervous tone.
"Move aside."
Yu Jiaoxue's voice was cold and hoarse.
"Young Lady, this is the Soul Lamp Hall, it is not a place you should come to..."
The elder still wanted to stop her.
"I told you to move aside!"
Yu Jiaoxue raised her head abruptly, a cold light flashing in her eyes.
A powerful aura erupted from within her body.
The elder was intimidated by this aura and could not help but make way for the path.
Yu Jiaoxue walked quickly into the Soul Lamp Hall and saw at a glance that extinguished golden soul lamp located in the very center.
At that moment, she felt the entire world collapse.
Her vision went black, and her body fell softly.
"Young Lady!"
The elder hurriedly stepped forward and supported Yu Jiaoxue.
Yu Jiaoxue fainted.
The elder hurriedly sent Yu Jiaoxue back to the Xueyao Hall and notified Supreme Ancestor Ye Taishang and Ye Jinghong at the first opportunity.
Supreme Ancestor Ye Taishang and Ye Jinghong rushed over upon hearing the news, and seeing the unconscious Yu Jiaoxue, they were extremely anxious.
They hurriedly invited the best alchemist of the Ye Clan to treat Yu Jiaoxue.
Fortunately, the fetus was fine.
It was just that Yu Jiaoxue had fainted because she had received a huge shock.
After a long while, Yu Jiaoxue slowly woke up.
She opened her eyes and saw Supreme Ancestor Ye Taishang and Ye Jinghong guarding by the bed, with no ripples in her eyes.
She asked calmly:
"Wuque... has he really fallen?"
Supreme Ancestor Ye Taishang and Ye Jinghong looked at each other, seeing the reluctance in each other's eyes.
But they knew that hiding it now made no sense.
Supreme Ancestor Ye Taishang nodded slowly and said in a hoarse voice:
"Jiaoxue, please restrain your grief."
"Wuque... he has truly left."
Hearing Supreme Ancestor Ye Taishang admit it personally, Yu Jiaoxue's tears finally could not be held back and gushed out.
But she did not cry out loud.
She just shed tears quietly.
There was no expression on her face.
This silent grief was even more heartbreaking than wailing.
Ye Jinghong wanted to comfort her, but did not know what to say.
He could only sigh silently on the side.
After a long while, Yu Jiaoxue slowly wiped the tears from her face.
She raised her head and looked toward the direction of the Wugui Road outside the window.
In her eyes, there was firmness and persistence.
She said to herself slowly, word by word:
"Impossible."
"Wuque, it is impossible that you are already dead... impossible."
"The soul lamp extinguishing cannot represent that you are dead."
"You are special."
"You have never disappointed me."
Hearing this, Ye Jinghong and the Supreme Ancestor all revealed a look of reluctance.
They probably thought that Yu Jiaoxue had been mentally deranged by this news.
However, little did they know, Yu Jiaoxue really thought so.
She firmly believed that Ye Wuque could definitely create miracles.
Because he was Ye Wuque.
The man who had created countless miracles.
He would definitely not die so easily.
He would definitely return.
Yu Jiaoxue gently stroked her high-bulging lower abdomen, feeling the fetal movement of the child in her womb.
A gentle smile appeared on her face.
"Wuque, did you hear that?"
"Our child is about to be born."
"He is very healthy and very lively."
"Our child and I are waiting for the day you return..."
"No matter how long, I will wait for you."
Her voice was very light, yet incomparably firm.
As if she were saying it to Ye Wuque, and as if she were saying it to herself.
Supreme Ancestor Ye Taishang and Ye Jinghong looked at Yu Jiaoxue's firm eyes and sighed in their hearts.
They did not say anything more.
They just left the Xueyao Hall silently.
They hoped that what Yu Jiaoxue said was true.
They hoped that Ye Wuque could really create a miracle and return safely.
But they also knew clearly in their hearts that this hope was very slim.
Not only the Ye Clan, but the Great Thousand Divine Universe and the Heaven Court, these two forces, also had Ye Wuque's soul lamps stored.
At this moment, the news of Ye Wuque's fall was also known to these two forces.
Great Thousand Divine Universe, top floor of the Taigu Divine Universe Tower.
The contemporary Universe Lord, the Second Universe Elder, the Third Universe Elder, and the First Universe Lord all gathered here.
Everyone's face was filled with grief and solemnity.
In the center of the great hall, an extinguished soul lamp was placed.
It was precisely Ye Wuque's soul lamp in the Great Thousand Divine Universe.
"Sigh..."
The contemporary Universe Lord let out a long sigh, his face filled with regret and grief.
"I have lived for so long and seen countless stunning talents."
"But I have never seen a monster as heaven-defying as Wuque."
"I originally thought he could lead us to defeat the darkness and welcome the light."
"I didn't expect him to die young..."
"Heaven envies the talented!"
The Second Universe Elder also had red eyes, his voice choked with sobs as he said:
"Back then, when I first saw Wuque, I knew he was definitely not a thing in a pool."
"I didn't expect... I didn't expect..."
He could not continue speaking after saying this.
Everyone fell silent.
Inside the great hall, there was a dead silence.
After a long while, the First Universe Lord spoke slowly, his voice heavy:
"Things have come to this, saying more is useless."
"Although Wuque has fallen, his will still remains."
"We cannot fail his expectations."
"From today on, the Great Thousand Divine Universe enters a Level 1 war readiness state."
"All disciples stop all outdoor activities and practice with all their might."
"Open the Divine Universe Treasure Vault and distribute all cultivation resources."
"At the same time, dispatch envoys to the major sacred lands and immortal aristocratic families to discuss the matter of uniting to resist the Ominous."
"We must inherit Wuque's legacy and guard these heavens and myriad realms well."
"Yes!"
Everyone responded in unison, their voices filled with firmness and determination.
At the same time, the Taigu Sword Tomb also sent equally painful news.
Feng Caichen's soul lamp had also extinguished.
The Taigu Sword Tomb was Feng Caichen's master's sect.
After coming to the heavens and myriad realms to participate in the Sword Son Trial of the Myriad Sword Dao lineage, Feng Caichen joined the Taigu Sword Tomb and had been practicing the Sword Dao there ever since.
All the disciples of the Taigu Sword Tomb regarded Feng Caichen as their pride and role model.
When they learned the news of Feng Caichen's fall, the entire Taigu Sword Tomb fell into endless grief.
All the disciples of the Sword Tomb spontaneously put on white clothes to observe mourning for Feng Caichen.
Some Sword Lords of the Sword Tomb were even more grief-stricken.
Feng Caichen was someone they watched grow up, the disciple they had cultivated with all their might.
He was the most outstanding genius of the Taigu Sword Tomb in millions of years.
He was their hope for the future.
But now, he had fallen on the Wugui Road.
"Caichen..."
The Tongtian Sword Master looked at Feng Caichen's extinguished soul lamp, tears streaming down his face.
"It was us who didn't protect you well..."
"It was us who failed you..."
The other Sword Lords also shed tears one after another.
After a long while, the Tongtian Sword Master wiped the tears from his face, a cold killing intent and firm determination flashing in his eyes.
"Pass my order!"
"Open the Sword Tomb Forbidden Land!"
"All disciples enter the forbidden land to practice!"
"Inherit the ancient Sword Dao!"
"From today on, all disciples of the Taigu Sword Tomb are not allowed to go into seclusion!"
"All go to the Wugui Road to kill the Ominous!"
"Avenge Feng Caichen!"
"Fight for the heavens and myriad realms!"
"Yes!"
All the Sword Tomb disciples responded in unison, their voices shaking heaven and earth, filled with grief, indignation, and determination. ===== CHAPTER 920 =====
