From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

"What about your grandfather?" Fang Yun Zhong said. "The number of people he\'s killed isn\'t any less than mine, plus, those people I just killed were from Indra Sky, how many of our own have they killed? I was just making them pay for their lives."

"..."

Bai Qi suddenly fell silent. What Fang Yun Zhong said wasn\'t wrong; those people had also killed their own, they too deserved to pay with their lives...

Seeing Bai Qi\'s emotions waver, Fang Yun Zhong continued, "Back then, your great-grandfather, that guy Bai Weiguo, I considered him a brother. On the battlefield, I even lost an arm saving his life, but do you know what he did? He actually killed me, except he didn\'t expect that he hadn\'t completely finished me off."

Speaking, Fang Yun Zhong showed his own arm and continued, "This arm was bitten off by a Void beast when I saved him back then, and later, I reattached it through Void Fusion Technique."

Bai Qi said, "Since you two were so close, if he could still bring himself to kill you, then your experiments must have been inhumane."

Fang Yun Zhong: "You\'re not wrong, he and I were indeed close, but he couldn\'t understand me, and what I did indeed seems cruel in the eyes of you normal people. But I haven\'t done anything wrong. If it wasn\'t for being able to save more of our kind, do you think I\'d like to do such things?"

"Have you never considered that you might be blindly obstinate?"

"Whatever the method, as long as it can save the human race, that\'s fine."

Bai Qi looked at the black blood on the corner of Fang Yun Zhong\'s mouth and spoke again, "I heard your conversation with the chief earlier. With your appearance now, you\'re probably no longer human, right?"

"Just because my blood is black?" Fang Yun Zhong said.

"Human blood is red." After saying this, Bai Qi waved the air beside her and drew a cut on her little finger, and from it flowed bright red blood.

Bai Qi continued, "My current state should indicate a successful experiment, but I\'m still a complete human. I\'m asking you, if I had accepted your experimental theory back then, would I still look like this now?"

Fang Yun Zhong smiled, "No, if the experiment had been carried out according to my theory, upon success, you\'d be much stronger than you are now. Because the current you hasn\'t mastered the power of the Void, you\'ve just turned it into a booster for your realm. The power you possess is still only what you should intrinsically have.

If the experiment results had been achieved according to my theory, you would not only have your innate power, but also the power of the Void. At that time, your body would emanate the aura of the Void, and those Void species wouldn\'t attack you. Just think, if all the humans in the world could accept my experimental theory, what would be the outcome?"

"Humans and the Void species living in peace?" Bai Qi frowned as she said.

"Exactly, by then there would be no more wars, our kind would not only survive but also evolve," Fang Yun Zhong said earnestly. "Is my approach not the best redemption for humanity?"

"If this method is as good as you say, then why did my great-grandfather stop you in the first place? Why won\'t you directly go to my grandfather for the experiments you want to conduct now?

Why did you even kill people on the submarine and threaten the chief?" Bai Qi said, "I think the answer should be simple, there must be something terrifying hidden behind your experimental theory, and only my grandfather knows about it. That\'s why you took the opportunity to sneak attack Indra Sky, using some means to make these ignorants submit to you, helping you achieve the experiment."

After listening, Fang Yun Zhong\'s smile gradually faded, "It seems no matter what I say, it\'s useless with you, Bai Family girl. I can tell you, although you are strong now, no matter how you try to stop me, I will eventually succeed."

"Not only will I stop you, but I will also stop my grandfather."

"Then you try."

Fang Yun Zhong dropped these words and turned into a black stream of light flying away into the distance.

Bai Qi immediately circulated her True Qi to flash through a thousand meters of space, positioning herself in front of Fang Yun Zhong.

"Stop insisting on those cruel experiments, this era\'s Void, I, Bai Qi, will break through!"

Bai Qi\'s True Qi surged, emitting waves of energy thousands of meters into the sky, the sea beneath compressed into a depression, and Fang Yun Zhong, who was very close, was directly knocked back thousands of meters.

"Spatial jump? You think an ability possessed by all members of the Xuan Ye realm can stop me?"

In a flash, Fang Yun Zhong reappeared ten thousand meters away from Bai Qi, continuing at full speed toward the Indra Sky branch laboratory.

Although Bai Qi had already broken through the mid-stage of the Xuan Ye realm, in terms of understanding the realm, she definitely wasn\'t as high as him.

He wasn\'t sure he could defeat Bai Qi in combat, but if he wanted to leave, Bai Qi might not be able to catch up.

The ability to utilize skills at will was his advantage.

Watching Fang Yun Zhong escape, Bai Qi immediately utilized her strongest innate cultivation technique. Now her Spiritual Root no longer needed to be restrained, and her own Spirit Form was finally ushered into its first descent.

"Rose Cross Sword!"

Hum——

The sky let out a long cry; behind Bai Qi, a rose flower quietly appeared.

With that, it began to grow rapidly, twisting and spreading, its roots turned into a wooden Cross Sword, and its crimson petals filled the blade, dripping like fresh blood.

"Thorns! Cover the sky!"

Bai Qi grabbed the Rose Cross Sword behind her, frantically infusing it with her True Qi.

In the next moment, like a wild tide, the roses on the Cross Sword covered the sky, barraging toward Fang Yun Zhong who had escaped thousands of meters away.

The thorns tore through the sky, and in the blink of an eye, surged right in front of Fang Yun Zhong.

But this time Fang Yun Zhong was fully prepared; he immediately threw the defensively array he had prepared behind him.

Boom——

The shield was split by the thorns, and Fang Yun Zhong quickly countered with a Cultivation Technique, but his technique was not able to scatter the thorns in the sky at all; instead, his own Cultivation Technique was outright exploded by the thorns.

The explosion\'s aftermath knocked Fang Yun Zhong flying even farther, but this time with his guard up, he wasn\'t severely injured.

"Wood attribute can have such destructive power!?"

Fang Yun Zhong was shocked and hurriedly made his full effort to escape.

The power of Bai Qi\'s cultivation technique had already been weakened by his defensive formation, yet he still couldn\'t destroy those vines.

In his era, wood attribute was always associated with support practitioners on the battlefield; how could it have such destructive power?

Seeing Fang Yun Zhong fleeing, Bai Qi immediately chased after him.

This was her first time using Spirit Form, and it was still too unfamiliar; if she were proficient, she was confident she could directly slice Fang Yun Zhong down from the sky.

——

——

At the central battlefield, Fang Ren had joined forces with Xu Feng in the camp of the Third District, because it wasn\'t too far from Mu Huanqing, so he could assist her in case of an emergency.

There were many void beasts around, but Xu Feng\'s presence helped alleviate some of the pressure on Fang Ren.

"Brother Fang! I never imagined I could one day fight alongside the leaders of the major battle zones! In this battle, I, Xu Feng, would die with no regrets!"

Xu Feng said excitedly, fully engaged in killing the enemy.

Fang Ren had almost gotten calluses in his ears from hearing his words; the guy was simply a passionate youth, always shouting about dying without regrets and that a man should perish on the battlefield and the like.

However, Fang Ren didn\'t dislike such a person—in fact, he rather enjoyed interacting with him.

Hum—

Suddenly, a silver light darted over, blasting an eighth-order void beast into pieces.

Fang Ren and Xu Feng turned their heads in unison to see a beautiful woman in silver armor looking at them.

"Mu... District Chief Mu!"

Upon seeing the beautiful woman, Xu Feng became excited, as he had never been so close to these top generals before, immediately reverting to the fanboy state upon seeing an idol.

Fang Ren knew the woman\'s identity instantly; in this world, the only one who could resemble Mu Huanqing so closely was probably only the District Chief of the Third District, Mu Tianyuan.

And he happened to be within the Third District\'s area.

"You, come over here!"

Mu Tianyuan pulled Fang Ren aside with a cold face, dragged him a few hundred meters away, and waved to erect a soundproof barrier that enveloped them both.

"Ah... Aunt..."

Encountering his mother-in-law again, although on the battlefield, Fang Ren still couldn\'t help feeling a bit nervous.

After all, his relationship with Mu Huanqing wasn\'t the same as before.

"Nonsense!" Mu Tianyuan shouted, "You\'ve made me a grandmother! Still calling me aunt?"

"..."

Facing his fierce mother-in-law, Fang Ren was lost for words, subtly understanding why Uncle Han hadn\'t been home for many years.

He remembered that when his mother-in-law personally handed Mu Huanqing over to him, she was a very gentle woman...

"Tell me! Where exactly did you adopt from!" Mu Tianyuan demanded angrily.

"It\'s ours..."

"Nonsense! How long have you two been together? Did you use your ass to give birth?"

"Ours... It was sudden... After two months, she just gave birth..." Fang Ren explained.

While they were still talking, suddenly a void beast charged over, and Mu Tianyuan dismissed the soundproof barrier, punching through the belly of the void beast.

"Be more mindful of your own safety."

With the soundproof barrier gone, Mu Tianyuan naturally wouldn\'t continue that conversation but reminded him before rejoining the battlefield.

But in her heart, she had come to believe that her daughter had truly given birth to a granddaughter for her.

"Brother Fang! What did District Chief Mu say to you?" Xu Feng asked after knocking down a void beast and rushing over.

"Oh, she was asking how we both improved our realms so quickly," Fang Ren fobbed off with a casual remark.

Xu Feng laughed and said, "Then they don\'t know how strong Brother Fang\'s alchemy skills are! I believe after this battle, there won\'t be a soul in the world who would dare to question you!"

Fang Ren just waved his hand, unconcerned with the praise, and continued to engage in the battle.

After this great battle, who knows what tricks the Tiandao Sword Sect could come up with to challenge him?

But Xu Feng was a man of integrity, and Fang Ren didn\'t want to burden him with those thoughts.
