Some bloodline individuals with weak willpower, upon seeing the countless tens of millions of undead forces crushing towards them, were immediately terrified. In their panic, they lost all will to resist, with only one thought in their minds: escape.
If the battle were between evenly matched or similarly capable forces, perhaps these bloodline people would have fought back. After all, when success seems possible, no one wants to be a coward, a traitor, or a runaway.
However, when the battlefield situation is one of overwhelming advantage, with an enormous disparity between the two sides, any bloodline individual who is even slightly intelligent would prioritize their own survival.
This is the subconscious reaction of all intelligent races, a natural human sentiment, and even the strong are not exempt.
Moreover, for the hundreds of thousands of bloodline people on Bloodlight City, their fervor and courage had already begun to wane the moment the city's protective array was breached.
Especially after witnessing the deaths of so many of their companions, how could they still have the will to resist? Terrified, they immediately began to flee for their lives.
Xue Jialaisi roared towards the heavens, the power of the blood law, a crimson light more brilliant than fire, illuminating the entire area in a bloody hue.
"What is that?"
"It seems to be the King's blood law!"
"In the past, when the King fought, he never unleashed such immense power. Could it be that the King intends to perish with the enemy?"
A Duke-level bloodline individual, witnessing the increasingly potent blood law, seemed to grasp something and his expression immediately turned extremely grim.
After a moment of stunned silence, he reacted and began to exclaim in horror.
"Not good, the King is going all out, quickly get away from here."
"This crimson light is not ordinary crimson light; it is condensed and transformed from the blood law, possessing incredibly terrifying power. Furthermore, the King's methods are not merely this simple..."
The rest of his words were unnecessary, as all the surviving bloodline people, as well as the undead, understood what he meant.
"Hahahaha, Xue Jialaisi, do you think desperate measures will still work at this juncture?"
Gong Fengdi's cold laughter echoed, silencing the previously terrified undead.
Their gaze once again fell upon the remaining bloodline people, and the one-sided, brutal slaughter was about to begin anew.
In fact, fewer than three hundred thousand bloodline people remained within Bloodlight City, meaning over four hundred thousand had perished here.
The number of bloodline people who had managed to escape amidst the chaos did not exceed a single hand.
Apart from a few bloodline individuals with special divine abilities who had fled during the confusion, the remaining two hundred thousand-plus bloodline people were still surrounded, trapped like dumplings in a pot.
The Great Dao is the eternal power that upholds heaven and earth, and laws are branches of this Great Dao.
Xue Jialaisi unleashed a large portion of the blood law within his body all at once.
His entire being radiated crimson light, and a terrifying aura permeated the air.
...
"This crimson blood power is my ten thousand years of enlightenment regarding the Great Dao of Blood, and this crimson light is the manifestation of the origin of blood."
"Hahahaha, Gaoqiao Hao and Gong Fengdi, if you two wish to destroy my Bloodlight City, then first take this move from me."
Xue Jialaisi declared.
...
The streaks of crimson light, like scarlet veins or powerful blood-colored dragons, unleashed the boundless and vast blood law towards Gaoqiao Hao and Gong Fengdi.
Gong Fengdi, wielding the Great Dao of Wind, conjured winds filled with the power of laws. This wind was so potent it seemed to come from beyond the heavens, imbued with mysterious power.
The azure wind of law suddenly struck, forming a torrent that stirred with the essence of laws, lashing out at Xue Jialaisi.
Gaoqiao Hao was not idle either. The law of death manifested fully. The low-grade spiritual treasure, the Death Immortal Halberd, its dark glow shimmering, suddenly transformed into two, then a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, a hundred thousand... in an instant, countless immortal halberds.
The tips of the halberds shone with a dark light, illuminating all directions and exuding a soul-shattering aura.
"Hiss! Gaoqiao Hao and Gong Fengdi are both so powerful..."
Xue Jialaisi breathed rapidly, his gaze becoming extremely solemn and cautious. However, at the same time, the fighting spirit in his eyes grew even more intense.
He was the King of the Bloodline, and although inferior to his enemies, he did not retreat but chose to stand and fight.
"Gaoqiao Hao and Gong Fengdi, this battle between our three will not only be a contest of laws but also of will!"
The bat wings behind Xue Jialaisi fluttered as he advanced. With each step, his aura soared, causing the sky to tremble.
The Blood Spirit Blade cleaved through the surging wind of law. Then, to Gong Fengdi's shocked gaze, Xue Jialaisi landed a right hook on him.
Not only that, but Xue Jialaisi's left hand clawed, transforming into a blood-red abyss that devoured the countless immortal halberds.
"Fool, expending such intense law power, how long do you think you can last..."
Gaoqiao Hao, seeing this, was not flustered at all. Instead, a cold smile appeared on his face.
Gong Fengdi sighed, equally unconcerned.
Indeed, gradually, Xue Jialaisi began to fall into a disadvantage.
...
"Law of Wind, Cage of Wind!"
Seeing Xue Jialaisi's waning strength, Gong Fengdi spoke, reciting incantations as he unleashed his divine ability.
Instantly, the entire sky twisted. A gust of wind appeared out of nowhere. As soon as it manifested, it swept everything along with it.
This great wind eventually wove itself into a massive net, which appeared and disappeared, with countless laws of wind swirling around it.
And this great net, condensed from the power of wind, precisely surrounded Xue Jialaisi.
Before Xue Jialaisi could break through this net, Gaoqiao Hao swung the Death Immortal Halberd, striking Xue Jialaisi fiercely.
Xue Jialaisi was directly dealt a heavy blow by this strike. Just as Gaoqiao Hao and Gong Fengdi intended to press their advantage and eliminate Xue Jialaisi in one go.
"Buzz"
An anomaly occurred. Above Xue Jialaisi's head, a rift suddenly tore open, and a hand emerged from it without warning.
After grabbing Xue Jialaisi's shoulder, this hand instantly pulled his body into the rift.
"Hmph, seeking death!"
Someone rescuing someone right under his nose enraged Gong Fengdi, his expression immediately changing drastically. With a cold snort, he took immediate action.
"Get out!"
Innumerable forces of wind converged, instantly condensing into a colossal azure fist.
The moment this azure fist was unleashed, it actually created a vacuum zone.
And at the center of this vacuum zone was where Xue Jialaisi had stood, and where he had disappeared.
With a loud "bang," the sky at this moment shattered like a fragile mirror, scattering into countless fragments.
Gong Fengdi and Gaoqiao Hao were both enraged. However, the two hundred thousand bloodline people had already been annihilated by their undead army. No matter how furious they were, there was nowhere to vent their anger.
Just then, as if intentionally provoking Gong Fengdi and Gaoqiao Hao, a voice filled with mockery echoed in the area.
Tens of millions of undead forces converged here, but this voice was incredibly clear and distinct, entering everyone's ears.
"The revenge for the massacre of Bloodlight City today will surely be repaid by the entire Bloodline in the future!"
"Furthermore, I wish to bid farewell to you two fellow Daoists. When we meet again, I hope you two will not gang up on one."
This voice reverberated through every corner. As the last word fell, only Gong Fengdi and Gaoqiao Hao remained, their rough breaths filling the silence.
...
The story branches out, each telling a different tale.
On the Blood Frost Flying Chariot.
On Xue Shuangjiao's side, fearing that Wu Tao would regain his memory and coldly leave her, she continuously administered Gu pills to him, attempting to prevent him from ever recovering his memories, keeping him in his current state forever.
Xue Shuangjiao gazed at Wu Tao with tenderness. She didn't understand what was happening to her, why she was doing this.
At this moment, Xue Shuangjiao's heart was in turmoil. She felt that what she was doing was deeply unfair to Wu Tao.
Yet, her heart was beyond her control. Wu Tao was the only man who had ever captured her heart in all these years.
She couldn't imagine what would happen to her if she lost Wu Tao.
However, since she had already embarked on this path, there was no turning back.
She had decided to see it through to the end. Wu Tao had completely lost his memory, and with the constant consumption of Gu pills, without any external stimuli, he would never recall his past memories.
"I'm sorry, your remaining life will be spent with me from now on. No matter how much hardship we face, I will accompany you all the way..."
Xue Shuangjiao said to Wu Tao in her heart.
She intended to take Wu Tao to a place where no one knew them, and from then on, he would be hers alone.
She would marry Wu Tao, have children, establish their own family, and live a happy life.
"We'll fly for a few more days to reach the Ancient Tree Garden. It's one of the most beautiful places in the underground world. Once we get there, perhaps you'll remember everything!"
The closer they got to the Ancient Tree Garden, the brighter Xue Shuangjiao's smile became, and the better her mood grew.
Wu Tao nodded and replied, "Mm, Shuang'er, I'll listen to you. Wherever you go, I'll go."
The amnesiac Wu Tao, in his basic daily knowledge and habits, still possessed a childlike personality that required Xue Shuangjiao's care.
Of course, this was also due to some of Xue Shuangjiao's own reasons.
