This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 922 - 701: The Crucial Item

The Abyss Envoy has now one fewer member.

The battlefield instantly transformed from noisy to silent, as everyone stared blankly at this scene of Zuo Yongning's demise.

Everyone watched with wide eyes as Zuo Yongning's black-gold Buddha bone golden body gradually turned into brilliant gold, and then transformed into pale normal bones, with a phantom figure appearing, attached outside the bones.

A middle-aged figure, with a harmonious face, bald-headed like a revered monk.

"The Daluo Buddha Head…"

Xi Xuexian recognized this person and murmured softly.

"I have sinned, and I'm sorry for the countless cultivators, and sorry to you, benefactor Nianyun…"

The Daluo Buddha Head, having returned to his true nature, clasped his hands together, and two clear tears fell.

Liang Yi killed him, and also killed the Evil Buddha persona fused within him, and recalling everything, the Daluo Buddha Head felt infinite regret.

He wanted redemption, but life has passed; now he was merely a wisp of residual soul.

Xi Xuexian looked at this former leader of the Buddha's Path, her expression extremely complex.

She wanted to hate him, but Zuo Yongning was also helpless.

She wanted to let go, but would the millions of cultivators who died because of Zuo Yongning be willing to forgive him?

Xi Xuexian didn't know, but she knew she had no right to forgive on behalf of others.

Beside her, Liang Yi suddenly remembered something, his expression moved, and he waved his hand to shield this place with a Disruption Domain, preventing the Abyss Will and other cultivators from peeking. His lips moved slightly as he questioned Zuo Yongning via sound transmission who was slowly dissipating.

Moments later, Liang Yi dissipated the Disruption Domain, watching Zuo Yongning's pale bones scattered by the wind, his expression neither sad nor joyful.

Above in the Heavenly Vault, Xi Xuexian felt something strange and looked down to find her own body also gradually transforming into snowflakes and scattering.

Her Life Origin exhausted, it was time for her life to end. Although she killed Zuo Yongning and avenged benefactor Nianyun, Xi Xuexian had one last wish.

Focusing her gaze on Liang Yi and Su Youyi, Xi Xuexian smiled shallowly and softly pleaded: 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Defeat the Abyss for us, safeguard the Mystical Mechanism, I beseech you."

"Mm!"

Liang Yi and Su Youyi looked at this former Saintess, feeling inexplicably sad in their hearts. Their reply was short, yet firm.

"Thank you!"

Xi Xuexian smiled relievedly, closed her eyes, and a gentle breeze passed, adding a new scene of wind and snow between heaven and earth.

"Hu…"

Only now did Liang Yi let out a sigh of relief, as a weight was lifted from his heart.

Zuo Yongning was the first Abyss Envoy to fall on the battlefield; others like Cang Dong and Tian Anyu were discovered after being killed.

Now, Zuo Yongning as one of the strongest in the Abyss was thus slain by Liang Yi and Su Youyi's swords, the blow to morale was immeasurable.

The Abyss Army chose to retreat; Zuo Yongning's death was a massive blow to the Abyss, his single death was enough to cover all the previous losses of the Mystical Mechanism and more than enough!

In the unknowable outside realms confronting the Mystical Mechanism Heavenly Dao, the Abyss Will also noticed the change in the battlefield, and moved with its heart, causing the Abyss World to roll with Heavenly Thunder, venting the Abyss Will's fury!

The thousand-mile defense line was smoothly taken, Abyss Battle City was successfully relocated with the help from Wind God Commerce and players.

The Abyss and Mystical Mechanism temporarily entered a brief ceasefire.

"So, Zuo Yongning's downfall into the Demon Path was also orchestrated by the Abyss Will?"

In the courtyard, Chen Hua stood under the tree, hearing Liang Yi speak of Zuo Yongning's dying words, his expression filled with surprise and yet predictable.

"A leader of the Buddha's Path wouldn't lightly fall into the Demon Path so easily, nor easily escape from Mystical Mechanism to the Abyss and smoothly become an Abyss Envoy. These series of actions were too swift, even if Zuo Yongning quickly awoke, it would be to no avail."

"Indeed, back then the Abyss was helpless regarding the fate of the Daoist Immortal predecessor, wanting to seek a different path and establish other Abyss Gates, yet watched cautiously by countless Mystical Mechanism cultivators. Thus they took the risk with Zuo Yongning, altered his technique at a critical cultivation point to make their move."

Liang Yi's expression was somewhat wistful, if back then Zuo Yongning hadn't fallen into the Demon Path, ensnared by the Abyss Will's schemes, then perhaps the First Epoch and Second Epoch wouldn't have existed afterward.

Suddenly, Liang Yi seemed to remember something and glanced at his junior sister.

If that were the case, then his junior sister wouldn't have slept until the Third Epoch to awaken, and he might not have met her.

Who can clearly say what is misfortune or blessing?

Su Youyi seemed to have also sensed something, and looked deeply at Liang Yi, saying nothing, but tightly held her senior brother's hand.

Since meeting, then fate it is.

"But you say you found out the location of the Land of Rules?"

Chen Hua wasn't interested in the dead, especially not the troublesome four who had given them significant trouble earlier, but this person suddenly had a conscience before dying and helped them, thus Chen Hua became intrigued.

Besides Chen Hua and Su Youyi, Old Master Ju, Yue Bai, He Zhiqing, and Wan Tinggui were also present in the courtyard, they were all aware of the upcoming plans.

"Yes, Zuo Yongning, after recovering his true nature, still retained his past memories, and I saw his demeanor wasn't feigned, the credibility was high."

Liang Yi looked around at everyone, nodded, and revealed his judgment.

Earlier, before Zuo Yongning's death, he noticed that Zuo Yongning actually wished for redemption, and when he thought of their next step plan suddenly had an idea.

Their intention was to take advantage of this brief ceasefire period, infiltrate the Abyss Continent to search for the Land of Rules. If it could be found that would be best, if not, they could only search while fighting, but doing so would waste quite a lot of time and create numerous variables, which would be quite unfavorable for the Mystical Mechanism.
