Chapter 1519: Su Jingxiang’s Present

This was one of the Holy Palace Leaders of the snow maiden race, Yan Hua.

A hundred years had passed, but she didn’t really look any different.

Soft, white, shoulder-length hair, bright blue eyes, glittering and translucent skin, the familiar, enticing figure…

She was still the same old Yan Hua, except her expression was a bit more grave and heavy.

“An Lin.” A rare smile lit up Yan Hua’s cold features. “I truly am very happy that you were able to come back alive.”

An Lin smiled. “I’m also extremely happy that all of you chose to join the Four Nine Immortal Sect and fight for the human race even when everyone thought I was dead. I really must thank you for that.”

Yan Hua shook her head. “You died for us, so we would naturally fight for you. The snow maidens are not an unreasonable and ungrateful race.”

An Lin sighed with emotion upon hearing this.

In the past few decades, the snow maidens had received the approval of the human race and were now cherished allies. No one would have dared to imagine that sworn enemies like this would forge such a tight and intimate bond.

One’s true colors would often come out in times of crisis. The snow maidens were normally quite aloof and cold, but all of them possessed genuine and pure hearts. If they determined that something was right, they would fight for it with the utmost determination and be willing to do anything for that cause.

“By the way, Su Jingxiang told me to give this to you.” Yan Hua produced a pink ice flower from her storage ring. “She told me to place this at your tombstone when the Four Nine Immortal Sect decides to erect one for you. It looks like I can give it to you in person now.”

An Lin accepted the ice flower from Yan Hua. It was glittering and translucent and possessed six flower petals. It was like the most intricately crafted artistic masterpiece.

It had the texture of ice, but it gave one a peculiar sense of warmth, as if it could warm up one’s body and soul.

“It’s beautiful,” An Lin praised before turning to look up at Yan Hua. “Where is Su Jingxiang?”

“Dead,” Yan Hua replied.

An Lin’s hands shuddered slightly.

He fell silent for a moment before putting the ice flower into his storage ring.

“She died thirty years ago. This is something she told me to give to you before she died. She said it was to thank you for saving her life on more than one occasion and that it was only a paltry gift, but it’s the only thing that she can give you, and she hopes you wouldn’t mind,” Yan Hua said in a slow voice as she looked up at the clouds in the sky.

An Lin thought back to the snow maiden with the gentle smile whom he had saved in the Ancient Tai Chu Realm, and he heaved a forlorn sigh.

This was the nature of wars. The people around you would often suddenly disappear.

Thankfully, all of his closest friends were still alive and well.

“Who killed her?” An Lin asked.

“A Heaven Pioneer Stage Great General. He’s already dead. In fact, he died in this battle,” Yan Hua replied.

An Lin: “…”

Alright, so there was no vengeance to be taken.

An Lin’s injuries weren’t very severe, so he was quickly back to peak condition through the use of his Evergreen Technique and immortal pill.

Zhu Xuze and Situ Feng were still recovering from their injuries.

Little Huang was also lying off to the side lazily after consuming a yang-type immortal pill to replenish itself.

However, Xu Xiaolan, the Celestial Thearch, Tina, Bai Ling, and the others had disappeared.

“Da Bai, where are Xiaolan and the others?” An Lin asked.

He was meditating earlier, so he was unaware of what had happened around him.

Da Bai opened his eyes and yawned. “They said something about some trash that needed to be cleaned up at Qiu Guang City.”

An Lin nodded upon hearing this.

Qiu Guang City.

The largest city in the Gem State had been reduced to a cesspool of blood and slaughter.

The Heavenly Human Tribe United Army of over six million had slaughtered all of the living beings in the city.

All of the Heavenly Human Tribe powerful beings had holy, white light radiating from their bodies and were checking to see if they had missed anyone.

The Blood Tribe living beings were licking the blood from the bodies of humans with excitement shimmering in their eyes. The Void Spirit Tribe army was engaging in some sort of twisted song and dance, as if they were celebrating something.

“Great General, our third search of the city has confirmed that all of the humans have been killed.” A Soul Piercing Stage general appeared in the air before extending a respectful salute toward the Great General standing before him.

The handsome Great General nodded with a satisfied expression on his face. “Let’s set forth for Nan Chao City. We should be able to arrive just in time to see the city fall.”

The Heavenly Human Tribe United Army was full of vigor upon hearing this.

The Blood Tribe living beings, in particular, were already whooping for joy.

“Let’s go to our next feast!”

The Heavenly Human Tribe Great General’s voice reverberated through the air.

The Heavenly Human Tribe let loose spirited war cries in response.

“You think you can leave after killing my brethren? You can stay here to be buried with them!” a voice imbued with boundless divine might erupted in the sky.

Boom!

The Heavenly Human Tribe United Army was struck by an extremely terrifying aura, which gave them a crushing sense of asphyxiation.

This was like the boundless wrath of the heavens!

“Who’s there?” The Heavenly Human Tribe Great General looked up into the sky with a grave expression.

At this moment, a figure hurtled through the air before appearing in front of the Great General and grasping a hand tightly around the Great General’s head.

A white pillar of light tore through heaven and earth!

The Heavenly Human Tribe Great General only had the chance to let loose the shortest of bloodcurdling cries before his body disintegrated into countless infinitesimal particles.

“Who am I?” The man looked at the empty space where the Great General stood just a second ago. “I am a janitor of the Kingdom of the Nine States. My duty is to clean up the trash of the Kingdom of the Nine States!”

The entire Heavenly Human Tribe United Army stared blankly up at the man in the sky; all of them were stunned into complete silence.

This was a Great General comparable to a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure! How was he insta-killed like that? How was that possible!? Just how terrifyingly powerful was this man?

Right at this moment, a tall and slender beauty in a flowing white dress also appeared in the air before tossing out a ball of light. The ball of light expanded to encompass an area within a radius of over two hundred and fifty kilometers, trapping the entire Heavenly Human Tribe United Army within.

“Hehe, thanks for standing in such a tight cluster. That makes my job a lot easier.”

It was also at this moment that white Holy Vermilion Flames fell from the sky, transforming the ground below into a sea of flames.

Tens of thousands of Blood Tribe cultivators were reduced to plumes of smoke amid a series of bloodcurdling cries.

A woman in a jade dress appeared before everyone, standing in the sky like a regal goddess.

“That woman… She’s the Divine Phoenix Maiden!”

“My God, why is the Divine Phoenix Maiden here?”

All of the Blood Tribe powerful beings were struck by horror upon seeing Xu Xiaolan’s arrival.

Their only Heavenly Human Tribe Great General was dead, how could they stand against a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure?

“I’m also here to clean up some trash,” the woman said in a cold voice as she slashed another all-incinerating sword projection with her Dragon Sparrow Sword, burning countless Heavenly Human Tribe, Void Spirit Tribe, and Blood Tribe powerful beings into nothingness.

Another massacre took place.

However, the Heavenly Human Tribe United Army was on the receiving end this time…

On this day, the entire Heavenly Human Tribe United Army that had advanced toward the Kingdom of the Nine States on the southern front had been eliminated!
