His gaze swept over his companions, who fell one by one, their life force gradually extinguished, like the last ray of light at nightfall being swallowed by darkness.
His eyes reddened, his teeth clenched, and a wave of despair and resentment surged through his heart.
He knew that they had suffered a complete defeat in this battle.
"Wei Changxuan..." The Bodhisattva's voice was low and hoarse, each word seemingly squeezed from the depths of his soul, mixed with intense hatred and suppressed pain.
"You wait, the Heavenly Realm will make you pay the price sooner or later..."
The moment those words were uttered, they echoed like a curse throughout the heavens and earth.
However, before he could finish his final harsh words, Wei Changxuan suddenly appeared in front of him.
A peerlessly sharp longsword descended from the heavens with destructive power, its blade slicing through everything in its path.
A crack that was visible to the naked eye appeared in the space.
In an instant, the sword pierced the Bodhisattva's heart with pinpoint accuracy.
Then, with a deafening explosion, the Bodhisattva's body turned into ashes that filled the sky.
It drifted away with the wind and disappeared into the world.
The surroundings gradually returned to calm, with only the residual spiritual energy fluctuations continuing to linger.
The distant sky was still ablaze with the crimson glow of the setting sun, but at this moment, this magnificent color seemed more like a silent tribute to this brutal battle.
Having resolved the threat from the Heavenly Domain, Wei Changxuan quietly sheathed his longsword and stood motionless.
His back was as straight as a pine tree, but his weariness could not be hidden between his brows.
Jiang Fang and Luo Yuheng stood on either side of him.
The two were slightly out of breath, their faces a little pale, but they could not hide their excitement and relief.
They stood at the highest point of the Star-Picking Tower, overlooking all directions.
The surrounding white clouds floated like light gauze.
But this tranquility was completely shattered in the battle just now.
The floating clouds were dispersed by the aftershocks of the explosion, revealing a clear blue sky.
As the fluctuations in spiritual energy gradually subsided, the surrounding scenery began to return to normal.
Sunlight fell on the three of them, bathing their faces in a warm golden glow.
"We succeeded."
Luo Yuheng finally spoke, her tone gentle, but (Li Haohao's) words were filled with relief and pride at surviving the ordeal.
A faint smile curved her lips; though the smile remained gentle, it was more genuine and touching than ever before.
Looking at her companions, a sense of satisfaction welled up inside her—no matter how difficult the situation, they had finally made it through.
Wei Changxuan turned to look at her and nodded slightly. His deep gaze was fixed on the distance, his eyes piercing through the layered mountains, seemingly reaching into the unknown future.

“But this is just the beginning,” Wei Changxuan said, his tone firm and forceful.
"We must also reclaim the fortune of the Great Feng and make it prosperous again."
This is the responsibility we bear, and it is also my lifelong goal.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Fang, who had been standing quietly to the side, clenched her fists and dug her fingertips into her palms to suppress her emotions.
She looked up at Wei Changxuan, a complex emotion flashing in her clear eyes:
There was reverence, worry, and an undisguised trust. "Young Master," she said softly, her voice gentle yet firm.
"No matter how many difficulties lie ahead, I will always follow you and protect you. Please do not doubt this."
Upon hearing this, Wei Changxuan turned to meet Jiang Fang's gaze, and then looked at Luo Yuheng.
These two close friends, who have fought side by side for 533 years, have proven their loyalty and determination through their actions.
Despite the long and arduous road ahead, they always relied on and supported each other.
At that moment, a strange warmth rose in his heart, dispelling the chill left by the battle.
"With you all here, I believe we can definitely do it."
After he finished speaking, a rare, gentle smile appeared on his lips.
"Let's go, we have more important things to do."...
…………
Just when everyone thought it was all over.
In the void, a sudden change occurred...
Swish!
At this moment, the gray sky suddenly turned gloomy, as if a huge leaden cloud was pressing down on everyone's heads.
The wind gradually subsided, and the entire battlefield fell into a chilling silence.
Only the occasional clash of swords and whispers could be heard in the distance.
However, this brief silence did not last long—a deep and distant rumble came from the depths of the sky.
Like rolling thunder, it shook the ground slightly.
The energy in the air seemed to be disrupted as a result, surging outwards in waves.
Just as everyone was filled with doubt and uncertainty, a sharp figure suddenly descended from the sky.
Like a sharp blade tearing through the sky, it plunges straight into the center of the earth.
The moment his feet touched the ground, a powerful shockwave violently ripped up the surrounding rubble and dust, creating a vortex-like barrier that scattered in all directions.
It was a man dressed in a long blue robe, the hem of which fluttered in the wind, as if he were one with the raging wind.
His face was angular and sharp, with lines as hard as iron, exuding a captivating majesty.
Those eyes gleamed with a cold, dark light that sent chills down one's spine at first glance.
At this moment, his gaze swept around, revealing both a confident understanding of the battlefield situation and...
It also carried an undisguised hostility and contempt.
This imposing and menacing figure is none other than Xu Pingfeng, one of the masterminds behind the theft of the Great Feng Dynasty's destiny!
He was also the chief apprentice of the supervisor—a second-rank celestial strategist!
“Wei Changxuan…”
At this moment, Xu Pingfeng looked into the distance, and the tall, handsome young man slowly spoke.
Each word was as sharp and cold as an icicle piercing the eardrum.
"I never imagined you could get this far."
His voice carried a hint of suppressed emotion, perhaps surprise, or perhaps just a condescending sarcasm.
Then, a disdainful smile curled at the corner of his lips, and he said coldly:
"However, your good luck ends here today."
.......
Chapter 99 Wei Changxuan vs. Xu Pingfeng!
"Xu Pingfeng?!"
Upon seeing this person, Wei Changxuan's brows furrowed slightly, but his expression remained as calm and composed as ever.
A pair of jet-black eyes stared at Xu Pingfeng, their gaze devoid of any panic or fear, but instead filled with intense killing intent.
"Xu Pingfeng, ha, you cowardly coward, you finally dare to show your face today!"
When Wei Changxuan uttered those words, his tone was calm, yet it carried an undeniable chill.
“I originally thought you would always stay in that tiny place called Yunzhou, avoiding all challenges like a coward.”
This simple sentence is like a steel needle, piercing the most sensitive spot in the other person's heart.
Xu Pingfeng's weakness was clearly exposed; his expression changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.
He let out a very soft chuckle, as if he had heard an extremely childish joke.
He slowly stepped forward, and the pebbles beneath his feet crumbled into powder as they could not withstand the immense spiritual power emanating from him.
His gaze locked onto Wei Changxuan again, a mocking smile playing on his lips, his tone growing increasingly light and sarcastic:
"Wei Changxuan, you're too naive. You think you can do it all by yourself?"
Could they possibly shake the millennia-old foundation jointly built by the Heavenly Realm and the Great Feng? That's laughable!
All your efforts over the years have been nothing more than moths drawn to a flame.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out his arm, his fingertips glowing with a faint blue light, and quickly formed a complex hand seal.
At the same time, his lips parted slightly as he silently recited an obscure and difficult-to-understand incantation.
The voice was low and melodious, yet it contained a strange magic that caused the listener's heart to race and their consciousness to begin to blur.
As time passed, a large amount of distorted spiritual energy suddenly emerged in the world, gathering in the void.
The next moment, a huge golden talisman suddenly appeared in mid-air!
The talisman was engraved with ancient and intricate patterns, radiating an eerie light.
The golden halos intertwined and shimmered, like stars falling or a primordial roar.
Its target was very clear, and with a deafening roar...
This overwhelming, sky-covering talisman, carrying immense force, pressed down upon Wei Changxuan.
Wherever it passed, space seemed to be torn apart, revealing streaks of black cracks...
Wei Changxuan snorted coldly, his voice as piercing and sharp as ice striking rock.
With a slight movement of his hand, an invisible aura surged forth from his body, distorting the surrounding air.
