462: Chapter 461 Ascending to Heaven (Part 8) - Family Affection

They rushed towards the Guardians... Countless Spells and Flying Swords submerged them.

"For the Human Race, for the Great Dao, kill..." Daoist Zhang Daoling's eyes were bloodshot too.

He led the remaining Guardians to resist desperately.

The battle instantly turned white-hot.

If not for the rules in place, this Star Domain would likely have vanished instantly, turning into cosmic dust.

...

In the rear, Zhang Sanfeng watched with great interest.

Lu Qingfeng, however, was somewhat anxious. Time was tight, and he still wanted to go to Blue Star to see his wife, parents, and grandparents!

But Lu Jiuhuang had not arrived yet.

The battlefield below was incredibly tragic. In less than two minutes, a Celestial Master, two Guardians, and over a dozen Golden Core Cultivators had fallen. Also, Xuanwu had fallen, and their corpses floated in the Void Realm...

Blood drifted along with the cosmic buoyancy; severed limbs were everywhere.

A Guardian, knowing death was inevitable, his hundred-meter-tall body pierced by several long swords, let out a roar, charged forward, and directly self-destructed.

"Boom..."

Flesh and blood flew everywhere. The massive energy shattered the Golden Core Cultivators' Physical Bodies. Their Primordial Spirits escaped, pale-faced, before condensing their Physical Bodies to charge forward again.

Daoist Zhang Daoling roared: "Idiots, don't self-destruct! It's useless, you can't kill their Primordial Spirits, it's all for nothing..."

When Cultivators fight, if the few are fighting the many, self-destruction is a joke; the Primordial Spirit can escape.

Condensing the Physical Body only costs some cultivation at most.

Everything about a Golden Core Great Dao Cultivator is within the Primordial Spirit.

If the many are fighting the few, that's a good tactic; just use human lives to pile them to death.

...

As time passed, Lu Qingfeng checked and saw only half an hour remained before the Ascension would end.

The battlefield on the Fluorescent Planet was nearing its end. Only Daoist Zhang Daoling and Ge Xuan were still alive... and they were covered in wounds, teetering on the brink.

On the other side, only the Qilin and Vermilion Bird remained among the Divine Beasts; one had a severed tail, the other a severed wing.

There were also twenty-six Golden Core Great Dao Cultivators... all covered in wounds, their Realms all dropped to the Late Stage of True Immortal... some even dropped to the Middle Stage.

This proved that their Physical Bodies had died at least once.

"Daoist Zhang Daoling, Ge Xuan, move aside. We won't kill you; we respect you as heroes..." Mo Di said coldly.

The armor on his body was shattered, and his long sword was only half-broken.

"Cut the crap... If you want to pass, you'll have to step over our corpses..."

"Stubborn, then I will kill you..."

"Lu Qingfeng, Zhang Sanfeng, as Qi Refiners, shouldn't you be stopping them?" Daoist Zhang Daoling suddenly shouted.

Lu Qingfeng was about to speak, but Zhang Sanfeng shouted coldly:

"Get lost... When you were blocking us, why didn't you say that? You have the nerve to ask for our help... When we were being ganged up on, you were watching the show, weren't you? What kind of Guardians are you..."

Zhang Sanfeng was not someone who couldn't tell right from wrong... When they were about to die, no one helped.

"Zhang Sanfeng, we are doing this for the Human Race."

"For the Human Race, my foot. The Old Daoist is already dead; whether the Human Race exists or not, what does that have to do with me? Besides, if they get out, Daoist Tianxuan could be resurrected to save the Human Race... When he was alive, why didn't I see him save the Human Race?"

Facing Zhang Sanfeng's retort, Daoist Zhang Daoling was so angry he gritted his teeth.

But he was helpless.

He could only roar: "Kill..."

Both sides fought to the death once more.

...

While Lu Qingfeng was anxious, he noticed a red light rushing over from afar.

It quickly arrived nearby; who else could it be but Lu Jiuhuang?

Lu Qingfeng was speechless; what a crafty one. Hmm... the daughter takes after him—lacking strength, so she plays it safe.

Arriving right at the last moment.

However, given her current combat power, unless the Guardians were all dead, she wouldn't be able to get out either.

As soon as Lu Jiuhuang saw Lu Qingfeng, her eyes lit up—cheap dad, and that idiot brother.

Seeing the tragic situation on the battlefield, she roughly understood the situation.

She hurriedly stepped forward, hugged Lu Qingfeng's arm, and acted like a spoiled child: "Dad... If I had known you were coming, I would have come earlier. Did I miss anything?"

"Little rascal, you're here. Let's go first..."

After saying that, he nodded at Zhang Sanfeng.

Ignoring the tragedy of the battlefield—Ge Xuan was already dead, and most of the Golden Core Great Dao Cultivators had died as well.

He released a Protective Aura shield, led them, and whistled towards the nine-colored teleportation array.

They quickly descended into the atmosphere.

They saw the legendary Lu Dongbin below.

"Lu Qingfeng may leave; the others may not..."

He stood up and said, the long sword in his hand flashing with scorching white light.

Lu Qingfeng was about to make a move when several figures descended from above, all pale-faced.

Mozi, Gongsun Long, Zou Yan, Ye Lao, Mencius, and Chen Xuan, as well as the Vermilion Bird and Qilin...

Lu Qingfeng frowned. After thinking for a moment, he pointed his fingers into a sword shape and slashed at Mo Di.

"Fellow Daoist Lu..."

"Puff..."

His head exploded instantly, and his Primordial Spirit was shattered.

"You..." The others looked at him, daring to be angry but not daring to speak...

He turned to look at Lu Dongbin: "Leave the rest to you. Don't stop us. If you stop me, you will die in a second. If you stop them, you might last a while longer."

Lu Dongbin was silent for a moment, then stepped aside.

Lu Qingfeng pulled his son and daughter, brought Zhang Sanfeng, and entered the teleportation array.

With a flash of light, they appeared on the peak of Mount Tai.

Sure enough, the so-called Mount Tai conferring ceremony was just a lie; it was likely just to move the battlefield to the Fluorescent Planet to buy time.

Finally, they returned to Blue Star.

"Daoist Zhang, I plan to take my son and daughter to see my family. We will set off for the Kunlun Mountains in half an hour. What do you think?"

"This Old Daoist won't disturb Fellow Daoist Lu's reunion. I will go one step ahead and wait for you at the Kunlun Mountains!"

"Good..."

Lu Qingfeng finished speaking, pulled his children, and headed towards Hongzhou City.

...

Hongzhou City.

The family was incredibly anxious.

"The brat said today, why hasn't he arrived yet? Could he have been blocked?" Mother Lu walked back and forth anxiously.

"Oh, Yaner, don't worry. Look, what is that?"

Old Lu pointed at the three lights in the sky and said.

"Xiao Feng, Zhong'er, Huang'er." Mother Lu shouted excitedly.

Mo Xiaoyu and Shen Qianxun were tearful.

They were their lives...

Just as Lu Qingfeng landed, they bypassed him, each hugging one and crying.

Lu Qingfeng: ...

Who am I? Where am I?

Isn't this my wife?

Old Lu and Mother Lu also crowded over, looking at their grandson and granddaughter.

Is this the status of a man who has a family?

"Ahem, time is tight. There is only half an hour. You hurry up. Han Xiao, come here..."

"Master." He had been waiting eagerly.

"What do you think? People don't need you to kill them anymore; either they leave, or they all die."

Han Xiao was silent for a while, then said: "Master, I want to go out. The Great Dao Realm has something that attracts me. I've already told motorcycles..."

"That's good. I'll take you up later... but there might be danger."

"Thank you, Master..." Han Xiao said sincerely. He was still worried that the task his Master gave him would prevent him from going out...

As for danger, if a practitioner is afraid of danger, then there is no need to practice.

Lu Qingfeng went to talk to his grandparents for a while.

And over there, a crowd of people surrounded Lu Jiuhuang and Lu Jiuzhong.

"No, Xiao Zhong, your cultivation is so low, it's not safe up there. Stay here and wait a bit longer."

"Grandma, I have a reason I must go..." Lu Jiuzhong looked at this grandmother who had spoiled him rotten since he was a child, feeling very uncomfortable inside.

"Xiao Zhong, Grandma is worried about you, and I can't bear to part with you!"

"Grandma... I!"

Shen Qianxun looked at her son's pained expression and suddenly said: "Mom, an eagle must spread its wings and fly high. He has grown up... Restricting him is not a good thing!"

She said to her son again:

"Jiu Zhong, go. Fulfill your dreams. Mom supports you."

Lu Jiuzhong was moved to tears. He was truly touched today—such a good family, such warm care... He suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to his grandparents, grandmother, and mother, "This child is unfilial..."

"Child, get up!"

Mother Lu felt heartache for her grandson, helped him up, and wiped his forehead.

She shouted: "Lu Qingfeng..."

"Coming, coming!"
