225: Gods, damn it!

He knew very well that the God Race was definitely seeking revenge for the last incident, which was why they chose to act at this moment.

Moreover… the opponent actually chose to act against Jiang Jiusheng, they must have secretly investigated her relationship with Su Changqing.

Su Changqing frowned slightly, a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

“If I’m not mistaken, this is probably a trap set by the God Race.”

“No, perhaps it’s not just the God Race!”

Su Changqing gradually calmed down and began to ponder.

It should be noted that after the last incident, the God Race’s foundation was almost destroyed, and even only three God Kings remained. The God Race army suffered heavy casualties, making them unable to launch another large-scale war.

Let alone fighting the Tai Xuan Sect again.

They simply didn't have the capability.

But now!

The God Race had made their move.

Therefore, it meant that it wasn't just the God Race acting, but also other myriad races. Although it was unclear which races were involved, it was certain that there were many.

Moreover, their target was very likely Su Changqing himself.

After all, Su Changqing’s growth speed was simply too fast, making those guys feel fear.

“Ding! Detected that Host’s Senior Sister Jiang Jiusheng is being besieged.”

“Option One: A Fellow Daoist dies, not a poor Daoist. Senior Sister sacrifices herself, boundless magical power. Reward: One Immortal Artifact.”

“Option Two: Rescue Senior Sister. Reward: Emperor Spirit Pill (one bottle).”

System Bro’s voice suddenly rang in his ears, and Su Changqing was momentarily stunned.

Option One was definitely out.

Even if there was an Immortal Artifact, it was absolutely not to be chosen.

After all, she was his own Senior Sister; how could he so easily let Senior Sister sacrifice herself?

Moreover, it was clear that the God Race was coming for Su Changqing. Even if he didn't go this time, he would still be targeted by the myriad races next time, and even the entire Tai Xuan Sect would suffer attacks from the myriad races.

Therefore, this was absolutely unacceptable to Su Changqing.

“Since they are coming for me, then… if I ‘die,’ will it lower the myriad races’ vigilance?”

A bold idea suddenly emerged in Su Changqing’s mind, and a smile appeared on his face.

Since they want me dead, then ‘I’ shall die.

Thinking of this, Su Changqing said calmly:

“Alright, I understand this matter. Don’t tell anyone else about this. You instruct them to quickly clean up the battlefield and then return to the Sect without delay. As for Senior Sister, I’ll go myself.”

Peak Lord Yuan Jia heard this and hesitated:

“Saint, it might be very dangerous for you to go alone. Why not call more people to go with you?”

Su Changqing heard this, shook his head, and didn't explain, only saying faintly:

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Go handle it.”

Afterward, he walked towards Revered Master, smiling and saying:

“Revered Master, I still have some matters to attend to. I’ll be back soon. You all return to the Sect first.”

Gu Xiran heard this, somewhat puzzled, but didn’t ask further:

“Alright, be careful.”

With that, Su Changqing smiled and nodded, then flew alone towards the direction Peak Lord Yuan Jia had indicated.

........

At this moment, Yinling Valley!

This place was a Human Race canyon, where cold winds blew year-round. Further east was the Hengduan Mountains, a huge Yao Beast forest.

“Fairy Jiang, why hasn’t your Junior Brother arrived yet? We’ve been waiting for him for a long time.”

Divine King Brightmoon said with a chuckle.

Beside him, there appeared to be only a few Supreme Realm Martial Artists of the God Race.

In reality, there were countless Holy Realm martial artists hidden in the shadows. The three great God Kings of the God Race were all gathered, along with Holy Realm Experts from top races like the Yao Race, Demon Race, Ghost Race, and Asura Race, as well as Holy Realm Experts from other myriad races. Almost all of them were gathered here, totaling several thousand Holy Realm martial artists.

Their only purpose in gathering here was to kill Su Changqing.

Divine King Brightmoon was merely bait, his purpose was to lure Su Changqing out.

Countless Holy Realm martial artists were hidden in the shadows, each gentleman spread out, searching for Su Changqing’s figure.

Jiang Jiusheng was severely wounded, her aura extremely weak.

Although she was also a Holy Realm martial artist, she was only in the Early Stage. She couldn't compare to a Late Stage Holy Realm Expert like Divine King Brightmoon.

This was even with the opponent deliberately holding back, otherwise, she would have died at Divine King Brightmoon's hands long ago.

She snorted coldly, a hint of chill in her eyes.

“If my Junior Brother arrives, killing you will be as easy as slicing melons and dicing vegetables!”

Divine King Brightmoon heard this, laughed uproariously, his eyes filled with endless mockery.

“Is that so?”

“You wouldn’t think that I’m the only Holy Realm martial artist besieging you, would you? To tell you the truth, there are no less than several thousand Holy Realm martial artists hidden within dozens of miles of this area. If Su Changqing dares to come, he will surely die!”

Divine King Brightmoon’s words instantly startled Jiang Jiusheng.

This… how could this be?

Thousands of Holy Realm martial artists, just to besiege her Junior Brother?

If that were truly the case, Changqing would surely fall into a desperate situation if he came!

Thinking of this, Jiang Jiusheng circulated her True Qi and shouted:

“Junior Brother, don’t ever come out!!”

“They have an ambush!”

“......”

Although she didn't know if Su Changqing had arrived, Jiang Jiusheng didn't want Su Changqing to be in danger because of her.

Divine King Brightmoon’s expression suddenly changed upon hearing this.

This damned woman, how dare she ruin their plan.

He had just been loose-lipped; he shouldn't have said it.

“Noisy!”

Divine King Brightmoon flashed, appearing in front of Jiang Jiusheng, and punched, landing on her abdomen.

“Bang!”

Jiang Jiusheng’s body instantly flew backward, spewing a mouthful of fresh blood.

At this moment, dozens of miles away, on a withered tree, Su Changqing was hidden. Looking at Jiang Jiusheng’s situation, his gaze was profound.

“God Race, truly despicable!”

He let out a muffled hum in his heart. He had seen Divine King Brightmoon’s attack just now.

However, he couldn't act immediately at this moment.

“But, I can collect some interest.”

As his voice fell, a figure identical to him walked out and stood beside him.

This was the previous System reward, a Clone.

However, the Clone possessed eighty percent of his power.

Although not much, it was enough.

After all, although Su Changqing’s cultivation was at the Early Stage of the Holy Realm, his true combat power far exceeded that of a Late Stage Holy Realm martial artist, being extremely terrifying.

This Clone possessed eighty percent of his power, so killing a Late Stage Holy Realm martial artist was naturally not a problem.

He thought for a moment, took out twelve High Grade Sacred Artifact longswords and a spatial ring, and handed them to the Clone.

Although Su Changqing had many Immortal Artifacts, he couldn't give them to the Clone, because if the Clone died in battle, those Immortal Artifacts would belong to others. But Sacred Artifacts were nothing to him.

The Zhou Tian Twelve Sword Formation, composed of twelve High Grade Sacred Artifacts, could barely unleash more than half of its power.

With a thought, the Clone received the command, and its figure flashed, disappearing from its original spot.

Divine King Brightmoon, who had just kicked Jiang Jiusheng in the abdomen, suddenly felt a wave of death Qi approaching.

He was instantly shocked and tried to dodge, but the speed of that Qi was too fast.

“Boom!”

In an instant, he was directly sent flying by a terrifying attack.
