Ye Guan was about to speak when he was startled. Something was burning behind Fu Wu! It was the Book of Evil! The Evil Characters from within the Book of Evil were devouring her fleshly body and soul!

Ye Guan drew the Qingxuan Sword and stabbed it into Fu Wu. When the Book of Evil and the countless Evil Characters made contact with the Qingxuan Sword, they were utterly terrified, and they frantically fled Fu Wu's body.

However, it was too late—Fu Wu's fleshly body and soul were disappearing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

The crux of the matter here was that Fu Wu herself had already decided to die, so she wasn't making any efforts to suppress the Evil Blood and the Evil Characters within her.

Ye Guan trembled and said, "Senior Fu Wu..."

Fu Wu stared deeply at the Tianxing Universe, and scenes from a distant past flashed through her mind like lightning bolts.

A smile slowly suffused her lips, and two streams of clear tears trickled down her eyes eventually. Soon, Fu Wu's fleshly body and soul vanished, leaving only a seed that descended slowly to the ground.

Ye Guan hurriedly caught the seed and stared at it in a daze.

It wasn't that the Qingxuan Sword was useless, but Fu Wu no longer wanted to live. Ye Guan's gaze lingered on the seed before him, and his heart became filled with complex emotions.

Just then, footsteps echoed behind him.

Ye Guan turned to see Jing Chu and Yi Nian approaching him.

The moment Yi Nian saw Ye Guan, she rushed toward him and hugged him tightly.

Ye Guan embraced Yi Nian and said, "It's fine."

Yi Nian looked down at the seed in Ye Guan's hand. "Sister Fu. Is she..."

Ye Guan's expression grew more complex, and he sighed softly in response.

Jing Chu standing beside them frowned but remained silent.

"The Evil Dao Alliance and the Wujian Universe will never let us go," Ye Guan remarked and glanced at Jing Chu with a solemn gaze.

Chief Enforcement Officer Jing Chu was currently the strongest expert in the Tianxing Civilization.

Jing Chu's reply came belatedly, "Come with me."

With that, she turned around and left.

Ye Guan took one last look at the seed in his hand before putting it away and pulling Yi Nian along to follow Jing Chu.

Jing Chu led Ye Guan and Yi Nian to the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone and the Tianxing Life Tree. She then turned to look at Yi Nian, saying, "Take the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone and the Tianxing Life Tree with you."

Yi Nian was stunned.

Ye Guan was also taken aback.

Jing Chu stared at Yi Nian seriously. She meant it.

Ye Guan sighed in his heart.

I see…

It was unrealistic to rely only on Chief Enforcement Officer Jing Chu against the Evil Dao Alliance and the Wujian Universe. If they took the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone and the Tianxing Life Tree away, there would still be hope for the Tianxing Civilization.

Ye Guan looked at Jing Chu and asked, "What about you?"

Jing Chu didn't reply. Instead, she turned to gaze at the distant horizon, where the Tianxing Civilization's fruits were located. Ye Guan immediately understood her intentions. She was going to fight to the death.

"Miss Jing Chu, I have an idea. Would you like to listen to it?" Ye Guan asked.

Jing Chu looked at Ye Guan and nodded.

"I think fighting to the death here is pointless. So why not preserve your strength and avenge yourself in the future?"

Jing Chu remained silent.

"I can store the fruits of the Tianxing Civilization inside my tiny pagoda."

Yi Nian glanced at Ye Guan with eyes full of affection.

Jing Chu bowed deeply to Ye Guan and said, "Thank you."

"I have one small request."

"Okay."

At this point, she would agree to any request Ye Guan made.

Ye Guan said, "I want a marriage contract."

Jing Chu looked at Yi Nian and then nodded. "Okay."

"Not for Yi Nian and me."

Jing Chu was startled, but she quickly understood what he was trying to say.

"Okay," Jing Chu said, nodding.

Ye Guan nodded and opened his palm. The tiny pagoda soared into the sky and emitted countless rays of golden light. These rays enveloped the Tianxing Civilization's fruits and dragged them into the pagoda.

"I'm still here!" the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone exclaimed, "Don't forget about me! Don't forget about me!"

Lately, it had been living in constant fear. The outside world was just too dangerous.

Ye Guan stored the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone and the Tianxing Life Tree in the pagoda. As soon as the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone appeared inside the pagoda, it exclaimed, "Holy crap, this is amazing!"

Little Pagoda was speechless.

Jing Chu looked at Ye Guan.

"You should go into the pagoda well," Ye Guan urged.

Jing Chu nodded slightly. "Alright."

Once Jing Chu and Yi Nian were inside the pagoda, Ye Guan drew the Qingxuan Sword and infused his spiritual energy into it. Then, he transformed into a streak of sword light and disappeared into a spacetime rift.

He had decided to return to the Great Zhou!

His aunt had left behind a strand of her sword energy in the Great Zhou, and they would be safe there. Right now, he couldn't engage in a life-and-death struggle with the Evil Dao Alliance and the Wujian Universe.

He was too weak to fight them!

With that in mind, Ye Guan decided to stay low-key until he was strong enough.

Just as Ye Guan began traversing star fields using spacetime tunnels, he sensed something, and his expression changed drastically. The spacetime around him froze, and the next moment, he found himself in a strange spacetime region.

He was inside the Evil World!

The Evil Spirit God was here!

Ye Guan's expression turned grim. Gripping the Qingxuan Sword with both hands, he slashed out fiercely.

Boom!

The Evil's World spacetime was forcibly torn apart, but a withered hand reached out from the rift in spacetime before Ye Guan. Ye Guan's expression changed slightly. Gripping his sword with both hands, he slashed out once again.

𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Boom!

A radiant sword light erupted, and Ye Guan was sent flying away.

When he finally came to a stop, he found himself in an unknown starry region.

A lady was approaching him from a distance.

She was none other than the Evil Spirit God.

Wu Yi, three Holy Kings, a mysterious shadowy figure, and the Grand Sect Master were flying behind the Evil Spirit God.

The Evil Spirit God glanced at the Qingxuan Sword in Ye Guan's hand without saying a word.

The others gazed at the Qingxuan Sword in Ye Guan's hand. They were both astonished and envious.

Wu Yi wasn't interested in the Qingxuan Sword. She stared at Ye Guan and sneered, "You're actually running? Where can you even go?"

Ye Guan looked at Wu Yi and said, "Do you want to fight one-on-one?"

Wu Yi laughed. "I want to gang up on you. What are you going to do about it?"

"I shouldn't have asked a nobody like you," Ye Guan replied, glaring coldly at Wu Yi.

Wu Yi's gaze turned icy. "Spirit God, kill him."

The Evil Spirit God turned to Wu Yi with a frown, "Are you crazy? Do you think I'm your subordinate or something?"

Wu Yi was dumbfounded.

"Everything from the Tianxing Civilization is inside his pagoda. Stop wasting time and kill him already," the shadowy figure chimed in. Then, he stepped forward and swung his fist.

Boom!

The star field boiled beneath the might of his fist.

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed slightly as he got ready to strike.

However, Jing Chu suddenly appeared in front of him and threw a punch.

Bang!

The shadowy figure was blasted a thousand meters away.

The Holy Kings grew solemn upon seeing Jing Chu. They knew that she was no weaker than Fu Wu.

Jing Chu was about to attack again when Ye Guan said, "We should go. I'm sorry for the trouble."

With that, he grabbed Jing Chu's arm and used the Qingxuan Sword to carve open a spacetime tunnel. He knew that he had no chance of winning against these people. He needed to lure them to the Great Zhou.

Upon entering a spacetime tunnel, Ye Guan noticed something that made his face change drastically. A myriad of blood-red characters had manifested around them at some point.

Evil Characters!

Jing Chu stepped forward and clenched her right fist.

Boom!

A terrifying martial intent erupted from within her, repelling the Evil Characters.

Rumble!

The spacetime in the distance shattered, and a withered hand reached out toward them.

Ye Guan slashed out with his sword.

Boom!

Ye Guan was sent flying, but Jing Chu grabbed him before he could fly far away.

The withered hand's appearance became blurry upon taking the brunt of Ye Guan's attack.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan's arm was feeling numb. He looked up and saw the Evil Spirit God and the others approaching them from afar.

The spacetime around them was trembling violently as streams of blood made a beeline for Ye Guan.

Evil Blood!

The Evil Blood and the Evil Characters charged at Ye Guan and Jing Chu.

Jing Chu's eyes narrowed into slits. She was about to make a move when Ye Guan transmitted, saying,

"Miss Jing Chu, don't intervene. Just focus on helping Master Pagoda later."

Jing Chu was stunned. Just as she was about to ask some questions, the Evil Characters and the Evil Blood had already appeared before them.

Ye Guan suddenly clenched his hands, and his Mad Demon Bloodline rushed out of him.

Boom!

A terrifying bloodline power erupted from within him. Since Jing Chu was being protected by her martial intent, the Evil Characters and Evil Blood couldn't get near her, so they all charged at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan didn't defend himself at all, accepting everything that came his way. The Evil Blood and the Evil Characters melted into him as if they were moths to a flame.

The Evil Spirit God and the experts nearby were dumbfounded.

What the hell?

Ye Guan was actually taking a gamble, betting that the Evil Blood and the Evil Characters wouldn't be able to overpower his Mad Demon bloodline!

Where was his confidence coming from? It was coming from his grandfather! Of course, Ye Guan dared not underestimate the Evil Blood and the Evil Characters, so he went all-out, unleashing the Mad Demon Bloodline to its limits.

When the Evil Blood and the Evil Characters entered Ye Guan, they immediately tried to consume his flesh and soul, but to their horror, Ye Guan's Mad Demon bloodline was devouring them instead.

What?

The Evil Blood and the Evil Characters were stunned. For so many years, they had only ever devoured others, but now someone was actually devouring them? They weren't going to sit idly by, so they fought back against the Mad Demon Bloodline!

Unfortunately, they had no idea about the Mad Demon Bloodline's temper.

The resistance infuriated it, and it went crazy, frantically devouring the Evil Blood and the Evil Characters.

Upon descending into madness, Ye Guan's aura skyrocketed. He suppressed the Evil Blood and the Evil Characters before consuming them at once.

Each consumption propelled Ye Guan's aura even further.

The faces of the Evil Spirit God and the others darkened at the sight.

Wu Yi turned to the Evil Spirit God and roared, "Are you here to help warm him up or what?! You—"

Smack!

The Evil Spirit God slapped her in the face.

Smack!

Caught off guard, Wu Yi was sent flying by the slap.

The Evil Spirit God glared at the tumbling Wu Yi. "Bitch, who gave you the courage to speak to me like that?"
