Meanwhile, Su Yilin stood by Li Cangyan’s side, radiating the same brilliance.

In the Four Region of Spirit Continent, strength was paramount.

She secretly glanced at the silver-haired man beside Yao Yao and her heart skipped a beat. That devil had such a godlike appearance and was so powerful.

Thinking back to their encounters in the Naitian Secret Realm and in the Eastern Sea, Ji Yao must have received his protection. Su Yilin felt a surge of displeasure.

However, the situation was different now.

Brother Cangyan had broken through to the Great Perfection stage, and her brother couldn’t defeat them anymore.

Moreover, he had other deadly treasures in this Emperor’s Tomb, which would definitely restrain the ancient demon.

So Su Yilin leaned against Li Cangyan, feeling a sense of security in her heart and eyes.

With a smile on his face, Li Cangyan looked first at Ji Rong, adopting the polite manner of a superior.

“Master Ji Rong, I didn’t expect to meet you here. I’ve been sent by His Majesty to inquire about the reason for trespassing into the forbidden grounds of His Majesty’s capital.”

Ji Rong looked at him expressionlessly.

Then, following his usual style, he directly attacked.

Really couldn’t stand that face.

Ji Rong’s sword aura was like a rainbow, striking even as he was still smiling. Li Cangyan didn’t expect him to draw his sword so hastily, even though his cultivation was lower. With a “clang,” their swords clashed.

Li Cangyan managed to hold his ground steadily.

His cultivation had indeed been forcefully elevated.

However, Ji Rong was not Li Cangyan’s most important target today.

After exchanging a few moves with Ji Rong, Li Cangyan withdrew to the side and looked at the golden body of merit slowly condensing above the water’s surface.

It belonged to him.

Just like the Hourgalss of Azure Feathers in the Eastern Sea, this golden light of merit deep within the Emperor’s Tomb was also left for him alone.

Understanding this so-called “heavenly destiny,” how could Li Cangyan not feel ecstatic?

Why did Li Cangyan have such a vast heavenly destiny?

Why did he possess the fortune of heaven and earth?

Why did he have all the assistance from above and below?

It was all because of his invincible divine mandate.

No one could resist him, including the pale man whom he looked down upon.

Li Cangyan raised his hand and chanted an ancient spell.

The condensed golden light of merit unexpectedly flew to his fingertips.

“Oh no.”

The male lead began to absorb the merit.

Not only would he become stronger, but those lost souls would also be completely trapped in this Emperor’s Tomb.

Before Yao Yao could even shout for Chong Yan, the ice flames had surged out, blocking the direction of the golden light.

But he couldn’t directly attack him.

Chong Yan looked at his own palm, and those vague speculations finally became clear.

Li Cangyan squinted his eyes, once again seeing the ice flames that had severely injured him. However, this time, the situation was completely different. He had only absorbed a small portion of the golden light and already felt his meridians swell and surge countless times, his chest pounding madly.

And most importantly, while absorbing the golden light, fragments of memories began to flash before his eyes.

How to go from weakness to strength.

Feel the clear eyes of the ancient demon, the beating heart, and the strong spine.

Soar through the nine heavens. The heavens and earth kneel.

In such a powerful divine force, Li Cangyan burst into laughter.

The first time he saw him in the Forsaken Abyss, he secretly envied the appearance of the ancient demons, but now…

Li Cangyan laughed and looked at Chong Yan, “Thank you for these years.”

Little brother.

Chong Yan looked at the person’s face from afar, and the color that faded from the corners of his lips vanished quickly.

Only the lonely solitude remained, like an ice glacier.

Yes. After obtaining everything, that person still had problems with his divine body and descended to the mortal world.

But he still received the love of the father and mother gods.

Everything that was snatched away, from heaven to earth, must be given to him again.

And he couldn’t retaliate.

Among the over 90,000 forbidden symbols of the ancient blood ban, when the mother goddess froze his heart with the phoenix fire descending from above his head, the first shackle that fell on him was written clearly:

Cannot harm the elder brother who reshapes the dragon body.

Cannot counterattack the elder brother.

Violators will quickly perish.

Li Cangyan knew this, so he understood that no one present could restrain him anymore, not even Ji Rong, whose cultivation was inferior to his, or the mischievous sea god of the Eastern Sea.

And after killing this ancient demon, acquiring unparalleled divine power, he would surely win her love.

Chong Yan dared not look at Yao Yao beside him.

Her fiancé turned out to be that golden, glorious brother who possessed everything.

The first time Chong Yan’s face turned pale because of Li Cangyan was because he found out he was Yao Yao’s fiancé.

And the second time was because he learned that he was the reincarnation of his elder brother.

Regardless of either time, he felt so unbearable.

Just like now, when Li Cangyan eagerly came with the golden sword, he could only block it with his human body.

Facing the attack directly, his figure trembled.

“Chong Yan.”

He pulled Yao Yao behind him, and almost instantly, he unleashed the most abundant spiritual power, surrounding himself in a tight formation.

However, the power gained from the heart of the ancient demon was too strong, and Yao Yao’s jellyfish was quickly reduced to thinness by the sword energy.

Ji Rong immediately lifted his sword.

The Black Snake also remembered that this man was the one who caused chaos in the deep sea, so it transformed angrily and began a frenzied attack, spewing venom.

However, when the ice flame stopped for a moment, Li Cangyan absorbed a bit of golden light. He was becoming stronger and stronger.

With each step, he trampled countless souls, growing more powerful.

Ji Rong’s sword almost turned into a blur.

The Black Snake’s tail began to show signs of bleeding.

Then, after a heavy blow, both the man and the snake were knocked out and crashed heavily into the wall.

As soon as Chong Yan got up, Li Cangyan’s next strike had already arrived.

Finally, blood trickled from Chong Yan’s pale lips.

Li Cangyan had never felt so exhilarated before.

Exhilarated.

This was the feeling of divine power.

But what made him even more exhilarated was the next step.

He crossed the wreckage and the people lying on the ground and walked up to Yao Yao.

“Yao Yao, come with me.”

Li Cangyan knew that this was the most critical blow to the ancient demon.

Crushing his spirit, trampling him on the ground, and grinding him to dust.

Just like back then.

And now, when he displays such power, no one can help but admire him, no one can help but fear him.

This Four Region of Spirit Continent, even the heavens above and the earth below, all belong to him in the future.

Yao Yao raised her head.

Chong Yan lay on the ground on the other side, watching Yao Yao look up, looking at Li Cangyan. After a while, she slowly reached out her hand.

A faint smile appeared on Li Cangyan’s lips.

The feeling of being enveloped in pleasure overwhelmed his entire body.

Chong Yan stared without blinking.

His eyes were so cold.

But there was still warmth left on his skin from her touch.

So the ice in his eyes melted into water, rolling down his cheeks and onto the ground.

As if he was unworthy.

He couldn’t protect her.

He wasn’t his best, the best.

However, in the next moment, Yao Yao’s hand transformed into a shrunken Demon-Slaying Divine Weapon Dragon Spine Sword, carrying her momentarily enhanced spiritual power.

When Li Cangyan smiled and reached out his hand, defenseless, she stabbed it into his chest.

Drops of golden light of merit scattered once again.

Li Cangyan spat out blood with a “pu” sound, unbelievably stumbling back a few steps.

What are you doing?

Don’t tell me you still want that devil, who has been an anomaly since birth.

“Brother Cangyan.”

Seeing this, Ji Rong and the Great Black Snake seized the opportunity, gathered their strength, and launched a fierce attack.

How could a single Su Yilin stand a chance against them?

“Wait, wait.”

“Stop it, you guys.”

Yao Yao stabbed Li Cangyan, her little face tense, but in reality, her whole body was trembling.

Her hands and feet were as cold as ice.

But she supported her trembling body and walked to Chong Yan’s side, squatting down and helping him up.

The situation was still not good. Although Li Cangyan was severely injured, the people from Jun Capital were probably already here, behind them.

They had to recover immediately.

But there was an unhealed mark on Chong Yan’s face.

Yao Yao saw it.

His amber eyes looked at her, and she felt her cheek being gently wiped by his soft palm.

No one could see the tears of the ancient demons.

“I’m the only one who sees it, but I won’t tell anyone,” Yao Yao whispered.

But Chong Yan’s eyes turned red again.

Why?

Yao Yao looked at him, using her trembling arms to tightly embrace him.

Their chests pressed together.

“Your world is in tatters,” Yao Yao whispered.

But I will patch it up for you.

Pull yourself together, my little demon.

Don’t be afraid.

Don’t cry.
