Chapter 1680: If Father Were Xi Xi, What Would He Do? The Temple God Reincarnated as Yun E and Zhou Peng

At that time, the will of the Corpse God could already exert its influence on them.

Therefore, Xi Xi wanting to use the Thunder Chess Piece to teleport and relieve the pressure on Yun E and others would be much more difficult.

If Xi Xi could break through to the Divine Embryo Realm, with the strength of the Heaven and Earth Soul, she could naturally take Yun E and others away.

However, Xi Xi’s cultivation was ultimately just at the Yuan Xiang Realm.

Thus, in the end, Xi Xi decided to teleport and leave the city alone.

This placed the choice in front of Xi Xi.

Should she look for her companions and fight alongside them, or abandon them and survive alone?

This was a very difficult decision.

And forcing a seven-year-old Xi Xi to make such a decision was truly cruel.

But Xi Xi didn’t hesitate much, she made her choice in an instant to return to Luoyun City.

The seven-year-old Xi Xi still had the most unimaginable spirit deep within a child’s heart!

"Little girl, you’ve grown up..."

Li Che sighed softly.

Xi Xi made the choice she thought was right, but in Li Che’s view, Xi Xi’s life was the most important.

In this world, no one’s life was more important than Xi Xi’s...

But Xi Xi herself wasn’t aware of it.

"But not much of a growth."

Li Che wanted to teach Xi Xi "selfishness," but after thinking about it, Li Che realized it was unnecessary.

"As long as I am strong enough, Xi Xi won’t have to face the choice of ’selfishness,’ so... why make the girl confront such cruelty?"

Li Che thought of the image of Da Xixi during the sea of corpses and blood, her pupils even reflected the scene of once fighting through the sea of corpses and blood.

How much suffering, how much pain, how many selfish choices must she have faced to come across such a scene.

Xi Xi and Da Xixi... are still different.

Da Xixi had no support.

But Xi Xi did.

Xi Xi, she had her father.

"Ji Moli..."

On the flying sword, Li Che suddenly opened his eyes, and in his pupils, a hint of golden smoke seemed to slowly flow out.

The overwhelming and intense killing intent surged mightily.

"Qi Tian City is about to open, do you want to go there and fight?"

"But you have to ask if the Underworld agrees."

The killing intent bursting from Li Che instantly alerted the other three on the flying sword.

Lv Qiankun, Fang Hanshu, and Lv Taibai all looked over.

They seemed unable to understand why Li Che suddenly erupted with such intense killing intent, nor who it was aimed at.

However, Lv Taibai couldn’t help but squint his eyes, his face collecting excitement and expectation, and became more solemn.

Li Che’s killing intent...

Could it be because Xi Xi was in some crisis in Luoyun City?

If that’s the case...

Lv Taibai’s eyes also began to emit killing intent.

Boom—!!!

The speed of the flying sword suddenly accelerated, instantly slicing through the night sky.

...

...

Luoyun City.

Scarlet light continuously erupted in the alley.

Yun E, Zhou Peng, and Jin Taixui all had slight changes in their expressions.

They exchanged glances, with a hint of bitterness in their eyes.

"Xi Xi seems to have... left us behind," Zhou Peng said bitterly.

However, there was no blame in his tone, just a bit of regret...

After all, they might die here.

"It’s not being left behind, there should be another reason, Xi Xi wouldn’t do something like leaving us behind, probably... something unexpected happened."

"Is it the blood light on us?"

Yun E could feel the temple god’s tremors within.

Constantly repelling the blood light, but there was too much of it, and the power level was too high, even with the aid of the temple god, Yun E couldn’t completely expel it.

Slowly, the blood light gathered on their necks, forming a blood-colored pattern.

It was a unique and eerie flower, seemingly symbolizing death.

"We’ve been marked!"

"Run!"

Yun E immediately said.

Meanwhile, overhead in Luoyun City, within the millstone-like formation of the Corpse God’s will, the grotesque and twisted visage swept with its gaze, fiercely scanning towards Luoyun City.

"Roar—!!!"

The terrifying roar exploded in the night sky.

The next moment.

Jin Taixui, Zhou Peng, and Yun E, who were escaping, only felt a terrifying force pressing down on them.

Bam—

The three of them fell to their knees.

They turned their heads in horror towards the citizens in all the houses within Luoyun City...

The densely packed citizens, all like lifeless zombies, staggered out with necks adorned with blood light converging to form blood-colored patterns.

They walked out of their shelter like manipulated corpses.

Yun E and the others were horrified at this scene.

Boom—!!

The ground shook violently.

Yun E and the others couldn’t help but turn their heads and saw Zhou Chiguo in clanking black armor, his gaze with a faint indifference.

"Where is my junior sister?"

Zhou Chiguo looked at the three, the corners of his mouth curling into a smile.

"Such a pity and shame, she ran too fast to witness fully the massacre of the city..."

Zhou Chiguo raised his hand and slightly pressed down.

The leaders of the Great Grandmaster level Black Armor Guards rapidly approached, detaining Yun E and the other two.

"I once... witnessed a massacre firsthand, and it was a shock."

"Only then did I understand how small my power was in the face of true strength."

Zhou Chiguo said calmly.

"I desired such strength, so I chose to join."

Taking a slow breath.
