The woman who appeared to block Ren Yuan’s outstretched hand was none other than Yao Xi, the inheritor of the God of Light.
Her long black hair cascaded like a waterfall of night, framing a face of otherworldly beauty. Her crystal-clear eyes burned with hatred so deep it seemed to freeze the very air around her. Clad in pristine white robes, she stood before Ning Yue like an unshakable barrier, her presence radiant and absolute.
Ren Yuan’s golden eyes flickered with slight surprise. “Yao Xi? I thought you had already joined Fan Shen and Nian Shi.”
Yao Xi did not respond. Her hatred needed no words.
With a flick of her wrist, a blinding light erupted from her palm, striking toward Ren Yuan with terrifying speed.
Chun Yue moved instantly, stepping in front of Ren Yuan with a graceful spin, her emerald sleeves swirling as she raised a barrier.
BOOM!
The force of Yao Xi’s attack shattered Chun Yue’s defense instantly, sending her flying backward like a leaf caught in a storm. She crashed into the distant ruins, her body skidding across the ground before coming to a stop.
Ren Yuan’s expression remained calm, but his eyes darkened slightly. “So, you still hold onto that grudge.”
Yao Xi’s voice was icy, each word dripping with venom. “You took everything from me.”
She did not wait for his reply.
Her hands moved in an intricate pattern, summoning the full might of the God of Light. The air itself trembled as a colossal pillar of divine radiance descended from the heavens, aiming directly at Ren Yuan.
Long Si and Long Wu, still recovering from their injuries, could only watch in awe as the battlefield erupted into chaos.
Ren Yuan sighed, as if disappointed. “Very well.”
His third eye—the Heaven’s Eye—opened fully, its depths swirling with galaxies and infinite knowledge. The moment Yao Xi’s attack reached him, space itself distorted around him, swallowing the light whole.
But Yao Xi was relentless.
She lunged forward, her body transforming into pure light, her speed surpassing even the limits of divine perception. In an instant, she appeared before Ren Yuan, her palm striking toward his chest.
Ren Yuan raised his hand to block—
BOOM!
The impact sent shockwaves rippling through the Primordial God Forsaken Land, cracking the earth beneath their feet. The World Tree’s leaves trembled violently, as if sensing the sheer magnitude of their clash.
Yun Lintian’s women and allies were strong, but Yao Xi was different.
She was not fighting for love, for duty, or for the sake of the world.
She was fighting for vengeance.
And that made her terrifying.
Ren Yuan’s robes fluttered as he was forced back a step, his golden eyes narrowing. “You’ve grown stronger.”
Yao Xi did not waste breath on conversation.
Her attacks came in an unrelenting storm—each strike infused with the power to erase existence itself. Light condensed into blades, spears, and chains, all aimed at Ren Yuan’s vitals. The very laws of the universe bent under her fury, time and space fracturing under the weight of her hatred.
Chun Yue, now recovered, attempted to intervene, but Long Si and Long Wu intercepted her. Though injured, the two Dragon God Ancestors were still formidable.
“You should stand still,” Long Si growled, his draconic aura flaring.
Chun Yue smirked. “Oh? And who will stop me?”
A brutal battle erupted between them, shaking the earth.
Meanwhile, Yao Xi and Ren Yuan clashed at speeds beyond mortal comprehension.
Each exchange sent shockwaves that shattered the space itself.
Yao Xi’s movements were precise, her hatred honing her focus to an unparalleled degree. She had spent lifetimes waiting for this moment, and she would not waste it.
Ren Yuan quickly found himself on the defensive.
His Heaven’s Eye pulsed, attempting to rewrite reality around him, but Yao Xi’s light burned too brightly. The God of Light’s power was the natural counter to illusions and mental domination.
With a roar, Yao Xi summoned a blade of condensed sunlight, slashing downward with enough force to split the heavens.
Ren Yuan raised both hands, his golden energy forming a shield—
CRACK!
The shield shattered.
However, Ren Yuan quickly relocated himself to avoid Yao Xi’s blade.
Ren Yuan’s golden eyes gleamed with rare surprise as he reappeared a thousand feet away, his robes slightly singed from Yao Xi’s attack. His fingers brushed against the shallow wound on his chest, the divine blood shimmering like liquid gold.
“It seems you’ve finally mastered the power of the God of Light,” he remarked, his voice calm but laced with newfound caution.
Yao Xi did not respond.
Her hatred was beyond words.
Instead, her entire body erupted in blinding white radiance, her figure becoming indistinguishable from the light itself.
The air trembled as the Law of Light manifested in its purest form—illuminating the entire endless abyss, dispelling all shadows, all deception.
The World Tree’s leaves shimmered in response, as if resonating with her power.
Ren Yuan’s expression darkened.
He knew what was coming.
Without hesitation, he flicked his wrist, summoning a swirling orb of abyssal darkness—the Heavenly Desolate Orb, a treasure capable of devouring all forms of energy.
Yao Xi’s light intensified.
Then—
BOOM!
A beam of pure annihilation shot from her fingertips, so bright it seared the eyes of even the Dragon God Ancestors watching from afar. The attack pierced through space, aiming directly at Ren Yuan’s heart.
Ren Yuan raised the Heavenly Desolate Orb.
“Absorb.”
The orb expanded, forming a black vortex that swallowed Yao Xi’s light whole. For a moment, it seemed as though her attack had been nullified.
But Yao Xi was not done.
Her lips curled into a cold sneer as she clenched her fist.
“Explode.”
The light inside the orb detonated.
CRACK!
The Heavenly Desolate Orb trembled violently, its surface fracturing as it struggled to contain the overwhelming power. Ren Yuan’s eyes narrowed—he had underestimated her.
With a flick of his fingers, he hurled the orb back at her, releasing the contained energy in a devastating counterattack.
The sky split apart as the two forces collided—Yao Xi’s radiant light against her own power, now weaponized against her.
She didn’t dodge.
She embraced it.
Her body dissolved into pure radiance, merging with the explosion. The space shattered, creating countless spatial rifts.
When the dust settled, Yao Xi stood unharmed, her white robes untouched, her gaze colder than ever…
