"The White Jade Sect is already destroyed, does Emperor Zhu have any regrets?"

In a certain Void Battlefield, Zhongshan Dongxuan smiled faintly. Although his words were calm, the meaning conveyed within them made the emperor of the White Jade Clan’s face turn as dark as water.

"It’s just a mere White Jade Sect, the White Jade Clan can afford the loss.

In comparison, your Zhongshan Clan has lost a Sun and Moon Divine King, that must be quite unpleasant!"

Emperor Zhu sneered.

At this point, he shifted the topic.

"Our clan traded a Heaven and Earth Divine King for your clan’s Sun and Moon Divine King, Dongxuan Divine King should not mind, right?"

"I don’t mind, in terms of losing a White Jade Sect, it truly doesn’t matter. It’s just the accumulation of hundreds of thousands of years, after another hundreds of thousands of years, the White Jade Clan will surely build another White Jade Sect.

However—"

Zhongshan Dongxuan’s expression remained unchanged from start to finish.

"This time, the White Jade Clan has withdrawn from the Eternal Ancient Continent, attempting a return will require enduring some pressure.

Also, for a large and ancient family like yours, this is just a minor issue."

Upon hearing this.

Emperor Zhu’s face darkened further.

Zhongshan Dongxuan’s words were like daggers to his heart.

White Jade Sect!

It was the result of hundreds of thousands of years of effort for the White Jade Clan.

How many clans can withstand for hundreds of thousands of years?

Except for those truly ancient clans existing for millions in the heavens, it’s already difficult for other clans to sustain for hundreds of thousands of years without extinction.

Even with the foundation of the White Jade Clan, he cannot be certain if the White Jade Clan will still exist among the Myriad Clans after hundreds of thousands of years.

This kind of loss.

Truly compensating for it is unimaginably difficult.

Moreover, with the destruction of the White Jade Sect, countless in the God Realm have fallen, and the power of the White Jade Clan’s affiliated sects has significantly declined.

If calculated carefully.

The loss.

It’s comparable to losing yet another Divine King.

Each time he thinks about this matter, Emperor Zhu’s murderous intent becomes almost uncontrollable.

At this moment.

The void silently shattered, and a person emerged from it.

"Emperor Zhu, long time no see."

"Candle Emperor!"

Seeing the newcomer, Emperor Zhu’s expression changed.

If facing Zhongshan Dongxuan alone, he was confident in handling it, but adding Candle Emperor into the mix made matters tricky.

This emperor from the Zhongshan Clan, though not a dual-rule being.

Yet—

His ability to consistently suppress Zhongshan Dongxuan and maintain his position as emperor displays his formidable power.

In the Void Battlefield.

Divine King’s aura pervades.

Zhongshan Dongxuan and Candle Emperor flanked Emperor Zhu, and the battle was on the verge of erupting.

"Two Rule Divine Kings, it seems you were well prepared!"

Emperor Zhu’s face grew stern.

However, he didn’t worry too much internally.

The Zhongshan Clan’s two Rule Divine Kings had come to confront him, which meant other battlefields were weakened.

Eventually.

Divine Kings from other clans would come to assist.

Until then, he only needed to hold out for a while.

Even though he wasn’t sure of suppressing two Rule Divine Kings, he was quite confident of sustaining for some time.

As for retreating!

Honestly.

He currently had no intention to retreat.

With the White Jade Sect destroyed.

Emperor Zhu was filled with rage.

Now, with Zhongshan Clan’s Divine Kings in front, it was perfect for venting his anger, otherwise, it would disturb his Dao in the future.

The scene remained silent for a moment.

In the next instant.

The void shattered like a mirror over a vast area.

Millions of Zhu Yan emerged in the void, with endless destructive power converging madly.

Followed by.

Darkness descended completely.

——

After retreating from the White Jade Sect.

The Candle Sect immediately made contact with the Flame Sect and recalled all disciples stationed in various cities.

This time.

Instead of acting separately in small teams, all groups converged and returned together.

Long boats, resembling a small continent, sped through the void, carrying all Candle Sect disciples and allied cultivators back to the Myriad State Domain.

With the Token given by Mi Shui Divine King, even with a large number of people on board, Shen Changqing found the members of his original team.

At a glance.

Of the original 120 disciples, less than forty remain.

Some disciples fell during the sieges, others died on the battlefield of the White Jade Sect’s main sect.

It is noteworthy.

The figure of Zhongshan Chong was not seen.

And from the golden Token, he had already received news of Zhongshan Chong’s death.

This true transmission from the Candle Sect, ultimately couldn’t reach the end.

Regarding this.

Shen Changqing felt a sense of sentiment.

After thousands of years of hard cultivation, still unable to escape the fate of demise.

Ultimately, it was due to insufficient strength.

Zhongshan Chong’s matter served as a warning for him.

Lacking strength.

Anytime there is a possibility of falling.

"Whether it’s the God Realm or Divine King, failing to reach the end means inevitably facing death; I don’t wish to repeat others’ missteps!"

Shen Changqing’s gaze was resolute.

He didn’t know if others feared death, but he genuinely feared it.

Precisely because he feared death, he did not want to die.

And not wanting to die meant only one option: becoming continually stronger, reaching a point where no one could threaten him, would naturally solve the problem.

Aside from the losses in his own team.

This time, the Candle Sect also lost at least thirty percent of its disciples in battle.
