Fu Bing stood there, tattered and disheveled, covered in blood, looking as if he had just survived a battle against thousands.
The corner of Fu Bing's mouth twisted into an ugly arc as he managed to utter, "You... are strong," before collapsing to the ground.
Huo Feng was also panting heavily as he sat on the ground, feeling a deep sense of regret. Although his Origin Force was depleted, he had not activated his strongest state, and the barrier of Earth Vein Realm Sixth Level remained unbroken. It was only when he transformed into his ice form that Huo Feng reached his peak strength.
After taking a moment to recover, Huo Feng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and approached Fu Bing. To his surprise, he found that Fu Bing was still conscious and had not sustained severe internal injuries; it was just that his external wounds were quite serious.
Huo Feng had learned the control techniques for this type of Combat Techniques from Ice over the past year. He understood that these large-scale Combat Techniques consuming Origin Force did not all belong to one's own Origin Force. After all, a person's body could only hold so much; it was impossible to contain such vast Combat Techniques.
Techniques like Huo Feng's "Star Blade" and "Star Domain Annihilation" were formed by guiding external Origin Force through the refined Origin Force absorbed within his body. Therefore, to maximize the damage of these types of Combat Techniques, one needed better affinity with the surrounding Origin Force for perfect control.
Moreover, Huo Feng's inherited bloodline characteristics granted him the Origin Force of Earth Vein Realm Sixth Level, yet it had only resulted in Fu Bing sustaining minor internal injuries.
Fu Bing was unaware of Huo Feng's traits. Seeing Huo Feng's shocked expression, he weakly said, "That expression is just asking for trouble. My powerful defensive Combat Techniques and all my Origin Force ensured I didn't die or suffer severe internal injuries. You see me like this and still have that look on your face—are you mocking my predicament?"
Huo Feng snapped back to reality and forced a smile, saying, "With injuries like yours, you'll need time to recuperate. I wonder what’s happening in the palace; let’s hurry back."
With that, Huo Feng hoisted the injured Fu Bing onto his shoulder and quickly headed toward the palace.
Huo Feng was anxious about Xuanran and their situation as he rushed to the main hall. Upon entering, he found chaos; doors and windows were shattered, and several large pillars had been broken. If it weren't for the solid construction of the hall, it might have already collapsed.
Huo Feng didn’t have time to take in the destruction; he noticed that aside from a few corpses lying among the ruins, everyone else was missing. This made him even more anxious. Fortunately, when he checked the bodies, he didn’t recognize anyone familiar, which eased his worry slightly.
However, Huo Feng still feared that things were too serious. He released Ice from the Narcissistic Ring. As soon as Ice emerged, he sprang to life, completely ignoring the surrounding chaos.
At that moment, Huo Feng said, "Ice, stop playing around and quickly release your Origin Force to search for Brother Xuanran and Sister Nangong’s presence."
Ice retorted angrily, "You only keep me in the Narcissistic Ring when there's nothing going on; now you want me out here doing hard labor?"
Despite his complaints, Ice understood the urgency of the situation. He immediately transformed back into his original form, revealing a nearly four-meter-tall giant light blue beast in front of Huo Feng and Fu Bing. Ice had grown significantly taller; previously he had only been three meters high.
A chilling aura emanated from Ice, causing Fu Bing to feel a shiver run down his spine. He knew this terrifying beast was something Huo Feng had summoned from the Narcissistic Ring.
Huo Feng did not pay attention to Fu Bing's changing expressions but kept staring at Bing, asking, "How is it? Have you found anything?"
At this moment, outside West City, a woman was desperately running with two severely injured men. These three were Xuanran and Nangong Yu, father and daughter. Not far behind them, a group of people was chasing after them.
Nangong Wuqing said, "Daughter, quickly put me down. You and Xuanran run fast; I will buy you some time."
"No way, you all go. I'll stay behind. I am the son of the Emperor; they won't do anything to me." Before Nangong Yu could speak, Xuanran interjected.
"None of you are leaving; I won't abandon any of you." Nangong Yu insisted, just as the Emperor's arrogant laughter echoed from behind: "Hahaha! None of you can escape. Xuanran, I didn't expect you to go against your father for these so-called outsiders. This time, I will make you remember this lesson." He had already flashed in front of them, blocking Amen's path.
At that moment, a strange feeling made everyone alert. Xuanran and the others also sensed an unusual aura but could not tell if it was friend or foe.
Suddenly, the Emperor and his men began to dance wildly in place. Xuanran and the others exchanged confused glances.
Nangong Wuqing suddenly said, "Not good, I sense the presence of a magical beast; we need to escape."
Just as Nangong Wuqing spoke, a palm-sized colorful butterfly appeared above them.
"Phantom Butterfly? But it doesn't look quite right; aren't Phantom Butterflies usually white? Why is this one colorful?" Xuanran asked in confusion.
"I know too, but judging by the Emperor's reaction, it seems like they are under an illusion. But why is Perfect unaffected? Is it helping Perfect?" Nangong Yu also felt puzzled.
Just as they were focused on the Colorful Illusion Butterfly, the Emperor suddenly stopped and charged towards the nearest Nangong Yu.
"Yuer!" Xuanran shouted suddenly.
Before Nangong Yu could understand what was happening, Xuanran had already rushed in front of her. Instantly, Xuanran collapsed into Nangong Yu's arms.
"Brother Xuanran!" Nangong Yu cried out heart-wrenchingly as she held him tightly.
In the city, Huo Feng was rushing forward while carrying Fu Bing. At this moment, Bing had transformed into that large body and followed Huo Feng. Bing spoke in a language only Huo Feng could understand, saying, "Hurry up, or the Phantom Butterfly won't last much longer. After all, it's only at Earth Level Beginner, equivalent to Earth Vein Realm Level Two."
Huo Feng accelerated again and said, "Fortunately, the Phantom Butterfly returned just in time. If it weren't for your long-distance communication with the Phantom Butterfly, things could have gotten serious."
Soon, Huo Feng arrived at their location. He saw that aside from Xuanran and the three others, as well as the Emperor who was staring blankly at Xuanran, everyone else was dancing joyfully.
However, the situation did not seem optimistic. When Huo Feng reached Nangong Yu and the others, he noticed that Xuanran in Nangong Yu's arms was bleeding from the mouth and nose, and there was a bloody hole in his chest.
Huo Feng hurriedly approached and asked, "What happened?"
At that moment, Nangong Yu, with tears streaming down her face, glanced at Huo Feng but did not answer. She only held Xuanran tightly and cried out, "Brother Xuanran, why are you so foolish? You mustn't be in any danger!"
Xuanran struggled to extend his bloodied hand to touch Nangong Yu's face and forced a smile as he said, "Fool, don't... don't cry. This... is my... own choice. I'm... about to... leave... I want to... tell you... I've always... liked you..."
"Don't say that, Brother Xuanran. You'll be fine. Just hold on; as long as you're okay, I'll marry you." Hearing this made Nangong Yu cry even harder as she held Xuanran tightly.
At that moment, Bing transformed back into the giant body. Ignoring the shock of others, he approached Nangong Yu's side and extended a claw towards Xuanran.
