Puff!
A faint sound was heard, followed by a deep, agonizing scream as an arm fell from the sky.
"Ah—damn Azure Cloud Gang leader, I will not let you go. When my Demon Sect launches a full-scale attack on the Sword Kingdom, it will be your time to die, Yun Qing."
The resentful voice of Yuwen Haocang echoed through the void, and then Yuwen Haocang's presence completely vanished from the air.
Yun Qing's face turned slightly pale, and his aura instantly weakened significantly. Although he had only used a few moves just now, those moves had nearly exhausted all of his Vital Energy.
"Master, how are you?" Xing Chen flickered and appeared beside Yun Qing, asking.
"I'm fine, nothing serious, just a bit overexerted," Yun Qing shook his head and replied calmly.
The others also looked towards Yun Qing. After all, Yun Qing was now very different from before; he was now a powerful figure of Gaze of Fate, and at this moment, with the invasion from the outer realms, they naturally would not engage in internal strife.
"Cloud Leader, was what that person said true? Has the Sun Kingdom really fallen?" Xun Hongyi asked with flickering eyes. The Sun Kingdom was the largest nation in the Eastern Region, and its overall strength was the strongest among all countries in the region. If even the Sun Kingdom had fallen, then their Sword Kingdom and other national forces would undoubtedly be unable to withstand the attacks from the Demon Sect.
"That's right, the Sun Kingdom has indeed been destroyed. My Azure Cloud Gang and the Eastern Sun Gang have all been scattered. The entire Sun Kingdom is now under the control of the Demon Sect!" Yun Qing spoke gravely. The fall of the Sun Kingdom and the destruction of his gang clearly affected his state of mind.
"How is this possible? My Sun Kingdom has really been occupied by the Demon Sect?" Huang had an expression of disbelief. The Sun Kingdom was his life's work, and he never expected it to be destroyed by the Demon Sect so easily.
"My Eastern Sun Gang has also been destroyed?" Xu Shuo muttered in shock. The Eastern Sun Gang was something he had built himself, and now it had been annihilated without warning.
Moreover, his son Xu Dongyang and granddaughter Xu Yuxi were both in the Eastern Sun Gang. Now that the Sun Kingdom had fallen and the Eastern Sun Gang had been destroyed, they would surely not escape disaster. Thinking of this, Xu Shuo wished he could immediately return to the Sun Kingdom.
"That's not even the most important part. According to what those who escaped from my Azure Cloud Gang reported, the Demon Sect has dispatched nearly ten strong figures of Gaze of Fate. Our Eastern Region absolutely cannot withstand these Soul-Searching Realm Experts.
Yun Qing furrowed his brow. Although he had just broken through to the Soul-Searching Realm Expert, he had not yet solidified his realm due to time constraints, so he had not planned to come here.
However, at that moment, He Mie, the Hall Master of the Azure Cloud Gang's Sunset Hall, suddenly arrived in a severely injured state and informed Yun Qing that the Sun Kingdom had been invaded and all factions had been annihilated.
It was precisely because of this news that Yun Qing rushed here without solidifying his realm.
"What? Ten Gaze of Fate? Are they trying to completely eradicate my Eastern Region?" Yan Haoxuan's face showed shock. The impact of ten Gaze of Fate on them was simply too great. It should be noted that currently, aside from Yun Qing, who had just broken through, there were no other strong Gaze of Fate experts in the entire Eastern Region.
Even Yun Qing had only just reached the Gaze of Fate level, and there was still a significant gap compared to those from the Demon Sect. Moreover, the enemy held an overwhelming numerical advantage.
If it were only one Gaze of Fate, with Yun Qing's current strength, he might still be able to fight back. However, since the enemy indeed had ten Gaze of Fate, even if Yun Qing were to elevate himself to the realm of insight, he might not be able to handle them.
"Brother Yun, it seems that our Eastern Region is facing a calamity this time. However, we absolutely cannot just sit back and wait for death. Even if we are all captured or killed, we must send someone out," Xu Shuo said solemnly. At this moment, everyone had already put aside their scheming thoughts; after all, this was a crisis for the entire Eastern Region. They needed to unite as one to have any chance of surviving; otherwise, it would only lead to death.
"That's right, Brother Yun. You are a strong Gaze of Fate expert and can traverse the void. It is still possible for you to escape. As long as you can get away, you will definitely be able to take revenge for us in the future," Huang Tongyang said gravely as he looked at Yun Qing. At this moment, among everyone present, only Yun Qing was a Gaze of Fate expert, so naturally everyone hoped he could escape and then help them take revenge.
"Everyone, I will not leave. If I go, the Eastern Region will be completely finished. As long as I am here, we can resist for a while longer," Yun Qing said calmly.
After reaching the Gaze of Fate level, Yun Qing could vaguely see some aspects of his own fate. It was only now that he understood what the Diviner meant when he said, "The Nation's Fortune Ends with the Setting Sun; Stars Shine Brightly, A New King Emerges."
This nation did not refer solely to the Sun Kingdom but encompassed all countries in the Eastern Region. All nations in the Eastern Region would perish, and their fortunes would dissipate; the entire Eastern Region would truly be destroyed. Without the support of fortune, the Eastern Region would cease to exist.
As for the new king mentioned, it did not refer to a king of one nation but rather to the king of the entire Eastern Region. Although the fortunes of the Eastern Region were exhausted, it did not necessarily mean that it would truly perish.
According to what the Diviner said, this new king would likely lead the Eastern Region to rise again. The fortunes of the Eastern Region would surely flourish under this new king's leadership; however, this new king was not him—Yun Qing—but rather...
Yun Qing glanced at Xing Chen. For Yun Qing, who had already begun to glimpse his fate, he naturally would not exploit Xing Chen as he had before. He finally understood the Diviner's advice.
Why did the Diviner want him to treat Xing Chen with sincerity? At this moment, Yun Qing had a vague idea.
Although he was currently only able to Gaze into the Self and could only slightly glimpse his own fate, he could also faintly sense that Xing Chen was definitely not an ordinary person. Moreover, after what he had experienced with the Diviner, he dared not ignore Xing Chen any longer.
"Cloud Leader, you must prioritize the bigger picture. Right now, only you can escape. Even if others manage to escape, their contributions will be minimal. You must listen to all of us regarding this matter," Yan Haoxuan said to Yun Qing with a hint of urgency.
"Everyone, please listen to me. As you all know, there is a mysterious powerhouse in the Eastern Region. This person is like a Divine Dragon—deep and elusive. Without an opportunity, no one can find him," Yun Qing slowly began.
"Brother Yun, are you referring to the Diviner?" Xu Shuo asked, his gaze flickering as he looked at Yun Qing.
The name of the Diviner was well-known throughout the Eastern Region. Although no one knew his exact strength, one thing was certain: whatever came from his mouth would undoubtedly come true.
"That's right, it's the Diviner. Five years ago, I had the fortune of consulting him for a divination. At that time, he said..." Yun Qing nodded and began recounting.
As Yun Qing spoke, everyone gradually understood the situation's background. The ones who felt it most deeply were Xu Shuo and Huang Liao; they had always wondered why Yun Qing suddenly took on a Closed-Door Disciple. Now they finally understood after hearing Yun Qing's account.
Xing Chen also listened intently. He had always found it strange why Yun Qing chose him as a disciple at first sight; now he finally realized that he had ultimately been a tool for someone else's use.
Xing Chen felt bitter inside, but he no longer harbored resentment. He did not hate Yun Qing or anyone else; the only thing he resented was his parents for abandoning him. If they hadn't abandoned him, he wouldn't be in this situation now.
"Chen Er, I know you must feel resentment right now. This matter is indeed my fault; I should not have used you for my own benefit," Yun Qing sighed as if sensing the change in Xing Chen's heart.
Due to the elevation of his realm, Yun Qing's state of mind has undergone significant changes. Previously, he had been cultivating solely for fame and fortune, but now he is indifferent to these matters and views everything with a sense of detachment. This is why he feels a sense of guilt towards Xing Chen.
"Master, I don't blame you. Although you used me, you treated me much better than my parents ever did," Xing Chen said with a self-deprecating smile, tears glimmering faintly in his blood-red eyes.
"Chen Er, rest assured that I will definitely help you find your parents. Put away the power of Seven Kill Blood Seal! Seven Kill Transformation! Although you have ways to resist its side effects, after such a long time, those side effects must have reached an unimaginable level. If this continues, you might really..."
Yun Qing looked at Xing Chen and spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of warmth.
"Heh..." Xing Chen chuckled, the faint Black Radiance in his blood-red eyes gradually disappearing, and the crimson hue in his pupils began to fade. His complexion quickly turned pale, and his aura almost instantly weakened.
"I... will not die..." As the blood-red color faded from Xing Chen's eyes and his hair returned to black, a feeling of weakness surged through him. He could only feel the vitality within him rapidly draining away.
Sensing the changes in his body, Xing Chen gritted his teeth. In his mind, the Mysterious Jade Pendant suddenly emitted a brilliant Black Light, firmly protecting the soul contained within the pendant. The backlash force came but could not shake the Mysterious Jade Pendant in the slightest; naturally, Xing Chen's soul remained safe and sound.
At the same time, the Black Light emanating from the Mysterious Jade Pendant also shielded Xing Chen's body, preventing his vitality from dissipating.
Looking at Xing Chen lying on the ground, with Black Light flickering over him from time to time, Yun Qing shook his head and sighed once more.
