Chapter 1946 - Curtain Close

Chapter 1946: Curtain Close Jun Qiuyan felt as though his recent experiences had been somewhat surreal. He was previously the young master of the Jun clan, a top force of the Penglai Continent. His status was astounding, and his talents were exceptional. He was also a powerful figure at the Renhuang Plane. In the entire Penglai Continent, he could have his say.
He had also made ample preparations for this journey to Eastern Deity Island. He had hoped to take this opportunity to come across fateful encounters of the Great Path on Eastern Deity Island to fortify and increase his own abilities.
However, he had ended up in such a state.
He himself was crippled, and his clan was almost about to face a catastrophe that would eradicate them. The great elder was being consumed by flames right now. The great elder’s miserable screams of agony could be heard. This made his face turn as pale as ash. Was Jun clan’s eradication all because he got them involved?
Why was this happening?
How could a lower-level Renhuang, whose cultivation was below Jun Qiuyan’s own, affect Jun clan’s survival, a top force in the Penglai Continent?
Rumble. In the sky above, divine fire consumed everything. Countless leaves of the wutong danced in the sky. When the leaves fluttered down to the ground, there was nothing left inside. The great elder of the Jun clan had completely disappeared. Only the beautiful Island Lord of Eastern Deity Island remained standing in the sky. Behind her, there was a gigantic illusion of the Sacred Phoenix that was one with the sky.
Everything had ended.
The appearance of the great elder of Jun clan had not only been unable to turn the tide of the battle, and he instead had drawn out the true ability of the female Island Lord of Eastern Deity Island. He was killed on the spot. There was no suspense left in this war.
Gales blew, and countless leaves of the wutong danced in the air. Each leaf contained the power of the divine fire of the Great Path as they swept through vast space. In an instant, with her figure as the center, the entire world seemed to become scorching hot, seemingly consumed by the formless power of the divine fire of the Great Path.

Retreat,
Jun Xiaoyao ordered. He sensed that the divine fire of the Great Path was everywhere and had already covered this part of the sky. There was nowhere to escape to unless they could restrict their opponent.
Buzz.
This part of the world seemed to be burning in flames. A gigantic shadow of the Sacred Phoenix appeared and descended from the sky. It consumed this part of the sky. The expressions of many Renhuangs of the Jun clan changed drastically. They discovered that the power of the flames surrounded them.
The Renhuangs of the Jun clan rose into the sky at the same time as they attempted to retreat. However, right now, it was already too late. In the sky above, Eastern Deity Island Island Lord was like a peerless goddess. Endless light of the divine fire emanated from her figure. This part of the sky was completely on fire.
Endless screams of agony could be heard. Here, Eastern Deity Island Island Lord was an uncontended existence. Even the great elder of Jun clan was immediately burnt to death by the divine fire of the Great Path. Who else could withstand the power of her Great Path?
Many Renhuangs were covered in divine flames. They appeared extremely miserable.

Island Lord, have mercy…
someone cried out, begging for mercy. Even though they were powerful, when truly faced with death, they would still feel terror.

Since you dared to bully my Eastern Deity Island, there is no meaning in begging now,
a cold and indifferent voice stated in the sky. She initially did not want to fight and let the members of the Penglai Continent know her abilities clearly. She had merely been watching from the shadows. However, the Jun clan had charged over to kill them. Even the great elder of Jun clan had attacked. She had been forced to emerge from the forces of Eastern Deity Island.
Jun clan and Yun clan dared to start the fight today. They must truly believe that her Eastern Deity Island was a pushover. Since that was the case, she had no qualms about killing them.
On the battlefield, Renhuangs let out cries of agony. Their bodies were burnt to dust in the divine fire of the Great Path, scattering to the winds. In a battle between cultivators at the peak, if the difference between abilities was sufficiently large, there was no possibility of escape. The weaker of the two could only await death.

Island Lord, this matter is unrelated to our Yun clan. Since we were friends with the Jun clan, they invited us here. We had no intention of going against Eastern Deity Island. We hope Island Lord can forgive this trespass,
Yun Mu also began to waver when he saw the Renhuangs perishing one after another. It was not just the Renhuangs of the Jun clan being slaughtered; their Yun clan Renhuangs were being killed off as well.
If this continued, they would be completely wiped up and would all perish here.

Since you have come here, stay,
Eastern Deity Island Island Lord said indifferently. The divine fire of the Great Path continued to burn. Renhuangs continued to perish. At the same time, the cultivators of Eastern Deity Island also attacked. Thus, a one-sided massacre began. Eastern Deity Island Island Lord controlled the entire field. The situation was completely lopsided.

She’s gone mad…

In the distance, many members of the continent felt their hearts tremble as they witnessed this scene. Not long ago, they had sought after fateful encounters of the Great Path on Eastern Deity Island. However, this time, Eastern Deity Island had become cruel and merciless as they began their massacre. There were Renhuangs perishing at every moment.
For the cultivators who came from various continents, this was the first time most of them were witnessing such a horrifying scene. Renhuangs were being slaughtered in large droves like ants. Such a scene could only be encountered on the battlefield between Renhuangs.
Today, they had witnessed such a scene.
On the battlefield, the number of Renhuangs was diminishing. The cultivators of the Jun clan as well as the Yun clan were being killed off. As for Eastern Deity Island and Shangguan clan, they had almost no losses. Under such circumstances, it was a complete landslide massacre.
Jun clan and Yun clan were finished. Many local cultivators of the Penglai Continent lamented. Fate was a cruel mistress. The two overlord clans, who dominated the Penglai Continent, had fallen just like that. They seemed to have forgotten who was the previous overlord of the Penglai Continent.
Shangguan clan had chosen the right side this time. They would probably have the chance to rise and become even stronger. They would also form ties with Eastern Deity Island.
From the looks of it now, anyone could tell that Eastern Deity Island, which had not involved themselves with outside affairs for many years, was still the most powerful force in the Penglai Continent.
The young city lord of Wushang City of the Penglai Continent was also among the crowd. There were also cultivators from Wushang City with him. They watched this scene emotionally. Two giant figures had perished just like that and became history. Who knew how the situation in the Penglai Continent would be like in the future? Would Eastern Deity Island directly interfere with the matters of the Penglai Continent and re-enter the sights of the world?
As the battle continued, the number of cultivators of the two top forces grew fewer and fewer. Jun Xiaoyao and Yun Mu had been surrounded. Eastern Deity Island Island Lord also attacked from the sky above when she saw the two of them struggling. Very quickly, the two of them were injured and backed into a corner.

Must it end like this?
Jun Xiaoyao asked as he looked at the female Renhuang in the sky. Cultivating was not easy. It was even more difficult to cultivate to his current level of cultivation. Yet, everything was about to be for naught.

Kill them,
Eastern Deity Island Island Lord uttered these two words. She did not respond to Jun Xiaoyao. They had already reached this point; she naturally was not going to show mercy.
A Sacred Phoenix descended upon them, attacking together with the elder. Very soon, Jun Xiaoyao could not withstand the attack anymore and was burnt by the divine fire.
…
Only Jun Qiuyan remained alive among the two top forces of the Penglai Continent when the battle ended. The cultivators who came to join the battle had all been killed. Eastern Deity Island had not shown any mercy.
When Jun Qiuyan saw the scene before him, he closed his eyes in pain. He then said,
Kill me, then.

Right now, he was dead inside. He no longer had any desire to live. What meaning was there in living?
Now, even his clan had been eradicated.
Ye Futian walked up to Jun Qiuyan. Ye Futian did not take much pleasure in this ordeal. Before this, he had released Jun Qiuyan. Ye Futian had not been hypocritical. He truly did not want to be involved with the Jun clan anymore and wanted to resolve the matter. Both sides could have just let go of the issue and not pursue it anymore.
However, Ye Futian did not know what had happened on Eastern Deity Island for the Jun clan to clearly not agree to this. Hence, they had ended up where they were now.
As Jun Qiuyan looked at the silhouette in front of him, he asked,
I want to ask you something. Why did Eastern Deity Island fight for you?

Was it just because Ye Futian had extraordinary talent?
Jun Qiuyan still could not understand. Why did Eastern Deity Island, which had not been involved in outside affairs for many years, fight for Ye Futian and re-enter the sights of the world?
Ye Futian pointed a finger at Jun Qiuyan. Sword Will immediately pierced forwards. With a dull groan, blood spurted out from Jun Qiuyan’s glabella. His eyes grew dim, and he died.
Jun Qiuyan’s eyes were wide open. He did not die in peace. Yet, he was unworthy of the answer he wanted to hear.
It was over.
Such a storm had ended in such a cruel fashion. The cleanup was up next.

Many thanks, Island Lord,
Ye Futian thanked the Island Lord as he lifted his head to look at her. No matter how he put it, he had relied on the other party this time. Otherwise, how could Ye Futian possibly deal with a ninth-tier existence? Him taking advantage of her forces this time was considered perfect. Of course, the other party had willingly cooperated. He was naturally aware of this point.
Eastern Deity Island Island Lord was also secretly hinting this to him.

It is not over yet. Shangguan Hong, I will bring a few members to the Yun clan. Meanwhile, you bring some of your people to pay Jun clan a visit,
the Island Lord instructed as she looked at Shangguan Hong. Next, they still had to tie up loose ends and eradicate any unknown risks.

Understood,
Shangguan Hong replied as he nodded his head.
Are we leaving immediately?


Hmm, let’s go now,
Eastern Deity Island Island Lord answered. She swept a glance below and ordered,
Let’s go.

As she said this, a group of people traversed across the sky with her, heading to settle things with the Yun clan.

Let us also go,
Shangguan Hong ordered. He led his group and left, heading towards the Jun clan.
Those who saw this scene understood that these two major forces would completely be eradicated.
Very soon, many cultivators left the place. Ye Futian quietly watched as everything happened. It was as though he was keeping out of things. It seemed as though all that had happened were unrelated to him. Even the attacks before this had not involved him. Eastern Deity Island had arranged everything. Or rather, the Island Lord had arranged all this.
Some alchemy masters approached Ye Futian. They had long known about some of the abilities of Eastern Deity Island. They naturally looked down on the Jun clan and Yun clan. The two clans were just a mob, and they actually thought highly of themselves and dared to challenge Eastern Deity Island. It was suicidal for them to have done so. Now, everything had turned out just nice. Their dreams had burst like a bubble, and they had lost their lives.

These matters are really uninteresting. Little Friend Ye, let us head back and research how to refine pills,
someone said. Ye Futian turned his head. He was speechless.
