Chapter 412: No Winner

Qing State, Green Emperor Tomb.

Yang Xi pleaded for help, Yang Luo wanted to go and save him, but Lin Jiang and Lin Ying desperately held her back, making Yang Luo helplessly watch as Yang Xi disappeared in the gleam of the sword.

"Ahh…"

Yang Luo let out a mournful cry. She had deep feelings for Yang Xi, and Yang Xi treated her as his own daughter. Now, seeing Yang Xi being attacked, Yang Luo also went mad with grief.

Next, Yang Luo threw the sword in her hand, piercing Lin Jiang’s thigh. She then grabbed Lin Ying’s spear and held on tight, even though covered in blood.

"Get up."

Yang Luo tossed Lin Ying, crashing into the wall, losing the long spear.

"Die."

With the long spear in hand, Yang Luo charged forward. Her spear techniques seemed as strong as her sword skills. The warrior from Cloud Sword Sect tried to stop her but was quickly defeated by Yang Luo, with three swift strikes, piercing his throat. Another person nearby finished him off.

Lin Jiang was also in danger. Yang Luo pierced his thigh, then a disciple from Holy Heavenly Sect attacked. Despite trying to dodge, Lin Jiang couldn’t avoid a sword slashing deep into his shoulder. Lin Jiang grabbed the blade, preventing it from being pulled out, then pushed back forcefully, both falling to the ground.

As they wrestled on the ground, Lin Jiang used his head to headbutt, "thumping" them. The battle between cultivators seemed less skilled than ordinary people.

Perhaps Lin Jiang had a harder head, as the person he headbutted saw stars. Lin Jiang had a moment of clarity and remembered a ground technique, Cross Firmament, grabbing the person’s arm, twisting his leg, and with a snap, broke the arm.

Lin Jiang was also in pain, his thigh still pierced by a sword. Grimacing, he pulled out the sword and swung it down towards the person’s neck.

The sharp pain made Lin Jiang’s vision blur, he had lost his strength and could only watch helplessly as Yang Luo wreaked havoc.

At that moment, Lin Jiang regretted not arranging for Big Shadiao and Small Shadiao to come. He had sent Small Shadiao back to the Wilderness, and he had purposely asked Lin Batian to stay in Yun State to avoid harm from the war.

If there was a powerful monster at that moment, maybe the outcome would have been different.

"Father."

Yang Luo approached Yang Xi, who was barely breathing and had been slashed countless times.

These injuries would have been minor for Tao Achieving outside, as spiritual power has healing properties. With some medicine, the wounds would have healed quickly.

However, in this place, it was deadly. His spiritual power was blocked, and he could only rely on his body to endure.

"Don’t mind me, go help Yang Xiong."

Yang Xi pleaded, knowing he was in bad shape and just wanting to protect his son.

"Father"

"Quick…"

Yang Luo turned around and saw that Yang Xiong was also in serious trouble. Cao Ying was attacking Yang Xiong, and they were both getting injured, covered in blood.

"Hit"

Seeing Yang Xiong in danger, Yang Luo immediately threw the spear in her hand.

"Thunk"

The long spear pierced through Cao Ying first, then went through Yang Xiong as well, connecting them together. This unexpected outcome shocked Yang Luo.

"Sizzle"

In a moment of distraction for Yang Luo, a cold glint passed by. Yang Luo quickly moved her head, dodging a sword aimed at her neck. The blade grazed her face, causing blood to gush out.

Another sword came swinging towards Yang Luo, she caught it barehanded, gripped the blade tightly, then kicked the opponent down with a powerful kick.

"Boom"

Yang Luo took another step forward and kicked the person directly, sending them flying and knocking down several people who were fighting.

Yang Luo glanced at Yang Xi, who had taken his last breath. Yang Luo’s eyes became fiercer, she picked up a sword and approached the Lu Family Ancestor.

As the Lu Family Ancestor was about to deflect a blade, he saw a cold light coming at him. Before he could react, his hand flew off.

"Die"

"All of you, die for me"

Yang Luo killed the Lu Family Ancestor, delivering countless strikes until he fell silent. Then she turned her attention to the Chen Family Ancestor.

At this moment, the Chen Family Ancestor was cornered, and even though some Chen family descendants wanted to rescue her, they could only helplessly watch as Yang Luo approached.

"Move aside."

Yang Luo said to the disciples of the Holy Heavenly Sect, and the disciples of the Holy Heavenly Sect obediently left.

"Demon woman."

The Chen Family Ancestor swung his sword, but Yang Luo’s sword was faster. It pierced the Chen Family Ancestor’s hand, causing him pain. The sword fell from his hand, Yang Luo elbowed the Chen Family Ancestor in the chest, and he crashed into the wall.

Yang Luo grabbed the Chen Family Ancestor’s hair and swiftly cut his throat with a sword.

········

The Qing State and Yun State lost, with no one left standing. The Holy Heavenly Sect suffered losses as well, with only one of the Tao Achieving left – Yang Luo. The other disciples were reduced to five, all injured, making the scene like a hellish battlefield.

"Kill everyone, destroy their elixir fields, and shatter their Nascent Souls."

Yang Luo coldly stated that everyone who entered here had a cultivation level of at least Nascent Soul. Their bodies may die, but their Nascent Souls were sealed and unable to escape, not truly fallen. If they break free, many here could be revived, either by rebuilding their bodies or taking possession of others.

"Yes, young master."

The only five remaining people responded, expressing their immense anger at the Holy Heavenly Sect’s overwhelming victory.

"Kill them, kill them all. You won’t survive either. Yang Luo, do you see a way out on the path you took?"

Just then, a faint voice sounded, causing the members of the Holy Heavenly Sect to stop in their tracks.

They first glanced back in the direction they came from. Indeed, they entered through the Seven-colored Rainbow Gate, but there seemed to be no exit in sight.

Following the voice, Yang Luo saw the Shenmu Ancestor flipping over the two bodies that were on top of him and rising to his feet again.

"You’re too cruel, not sparing even an old man like me. Look at how miserable I am."

The Shenmu Ancestor had only one hand left, with several missing parts on his body. The fallen parts had turned into pieces of wood.

"How do we get out?"

"Please, even if I try my hardest, I can’t tell you. Wouldn’t it be better to keep you trapped here?"

"The Shenmu Sect must not perish, I am not surnamed Yang."

"Hmm, you dare threaten me at this moment. You’re impressive. I won’t tell you. If you have the guts, kill me. It’s just a clone anyway."

The Shenmu Ancestor rolled his eyes, realizing the benefits of being a tree demon. Go ahead and cut him down, he has grown so many branches and vines, he doesn’t mind, hehe.

"Check for survivors, don’t kill them, gather them up."

Yang Luo ordered as several people nodded and went to check for survivors.

There were actually quite a few survivors, many of them looking mangled, but cultivators are resilient, not dead yet. They might be unconscious or barely holding on.

Lin Jiang woke up from the pain, someone accidentally stepped on the wound on his thigh, startling him awake. He was then dragged in front of Yang Luo.

Cao Ying and Yang Xiong are also alive, even though their bodies were pierced, they are still bravely holding on.

"Junior Sister"

Yang Xiong’s insides were all hanging out, he tried to push them back in but couldn’t. Yang Xiong was in so much pain he felt like crying.

"Hang in there, we’ve won, you’ll be okay."

Yang Luo comforted Yang Xiong and then went to Lin Jiang.

"You should have run, run to a place where no one knows, hide for a hundred thousand years, that would have been the right choice."

"Yes, you’re right."

"But for the sake of so-called family ties, you came back, and that’s a path to self-destruction."

"Not just for family."

"Then what else?"

"Nothing, killing you serves all my purposes."

Lin Jiang explained that the Holy Heavenly Sect threatened the Lin family with Lin Dongyan. The danger facing the Lin family was a concern for Lin Jiang, but what mattered more was Yang Luo’s threat to him. Seeing Yang Luo die fulfilled all of Lin Jiang’s objectives.

"But you failed, you lost, didn’t you?"

"I, Lin Jiang, can win and lose. If you win, feel free to kill or mutilate me."

Lin Jiang shook his head, accepting the loss. He had given his all, calculated everything he could, but still lost. He acknowledged his defeat.

"Very well, I admire your character. As a reward, before I finally kill you, I’ll let you witness the deaths of your father, your sister, and your disciples, all right in front of you."

"Scum."

"Keep cursing. Your enemy’s curses seem like the highest form of praise to me."

Yang Luo laughed, enjoying Lin Jiang’s insults. The harsher he cursed, the happier she became, seeing it as a sign of her enemy’s admiration.

"Wait, before you die, tell me how you managed to break through Tao Achieving."

"I think it’s better if you don’t know, so you can rest in peace."

"Tell me, and I’ll also share some good news with you that will make you happy for three days and three nights."

"Is it because you sent someone to steal from my home at Holy Heavenly Sect, and even rescued your beast pet?"

"You…"

"I’ve known for a long time, I personally set up the protective mountain formation at Holy Heavenly Sect."

Yang Luo said that she personally set up the protective mountain formation at Holy Heavenly Sect. When the core of the formation was broken, she sensed it, but it didn’t affect her.

Holy Heavenly Sect is only Holy Heavenly Sect because of her. As long as she’s alive, she can completely rebuild Holy Heavenly Sect.

Lin Jiang closed his eyes in pain. He realized he had completely lost by telling her this news. He thought it would make Yang Luo suffer for a few days and nights, but he underestimated her ruthlessness. She simply didn’t care.
