Chapter 1455: Chapter 1453: The Dust Settles
After the Abyssal Witch finished speaking, she left the Valley of Dragon Tomb. As a strong figure in the Immortal Realm, when the Abyssal Witch wants to leave, no one can stop her.
Ling Feng turned around and looked at the middle-aged man: "The task you gave me, I have now completely finished it!"
The middle-aged man gave Ling Feng a deep look: "Thatās right, although you made a deal with the Abyssal Witch in the end, overall, you have completed your task! So... congratulations, Ling Feng, you are now the master of the Thousand Dragon Disk!"
As he spoke, the middle-aged man half-knelt in front of Ling Feng: "Master, the Artifact Spirit of the Thousand Dragon Disk, the Golden Dragon War General is at your command any time."
Ling Feng let out a sigh of relief and waved his hand weakly: "I need to rest for a while, this wound of mine..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ling Feng felt a wave of weakness wash over him, then his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed to the ground.
The Golden Dragon War General touched Ling Fengās neck and sighed slightly: "To have held on until now with Mid Divine Sea Realm strength, almost reaching the Pinnacle of the Azure Sky Realm, is already considered a miracle. Could it be that the revival of my Dragon Clan will truly manifest upon the young master?"
Ling Fengās original strength was Mid Divine Sea Realm, but he was forcibly elevated to Mid Sky Realm by the Golden Dragon War General, which was already a great pressure for him. The previous battle with General Zhenwei added even more strain on Ling Feng.
Now, with the departure of the Abyssal Witch and the acknowledgment from the Golden Dragon War General, Ling Feng finally relaxed his mind completely, and thatās when he fainted.
While Ling Feng was unconscious, Camille and the others had already left the Valley of Dragon Tomb. The entrance to the Valley was once again sealed by the Thousand Dragon Disk.
Upon checking the gains, a trace of disappointment appeared on Camilleās face. She had initially thought that this expedition to the Valley of Dragon Tomb would bring many riches to the Rebel Army, but what they acquired wasnāt much.
Besides some Dragon Balls and exotic herbs, the biggest gains were possibly the Sky Sun Wood and a few Stellar Soul Gemstones. Of course, compared to Tudiel and his team, Camille felt much better, as Tudielās team was almost completely wiped out, and most of the resources they obtained were destroyed in the aftermath of the battle with General Zhenwei.
Itās just... such a pity that Ling Feng died in the Valley of Dragon Tomb! Camille felt a bit regretful inside. Itās not that she thought too highly of Ling Feng, but she felt he had some similarities with her. If possible, she wouldnāt have minded collaborating with Ling Feng.
But itās all over now. When Ling Feng was taken away by that strange Skeleton Bird, Camille realized that there was no more hope for Earth. Her only worry was that if the Holy Angel Xiao Chenxi didnāt see Ling Feng, it might leave a negative impression on her.
Back in the Angel World, upon seeing the Bright Saintess and Xiao Chenxi waiting at the base, Camille didnāt hide the truth about Ling Feng but instead openly shared what happened to him with them.
After hearing Camilleās words, the Bright Saintess felt like her head had been struck hard with a giant hammer, leaving her in a daze.
"Ling Feng... is dead? He died?" the Bright Saintess murmured, looking as if she had lost her mind.
Camille sighed: "Thatās right. The Valley of Dragon Tomb is full of dangers. Not only Ling Feng, but even several of our warriors died. I hadnāt anticipated any of this..."
"Heās dead!" The Bright Saintess suddenly raised her head, rushed forward, and grabbed Camilleās shoulders, shouting angrily: "Camille, it was you, you killed him! It must have been you who killed him! How could you be so cruel? Have you forgotten how Ling Feng helped you before? You cruel woman!"
Camille quietly watched the somewhat hysterical woman, without saying a word. She knew that no matter what she said now, it wouldnāt soothe the Bright Saintessās grief and pain.
"It was you, you insisted that Ling Feng go with you!" the Bright Saintess gritted her teeth, saying: "Camille, donāt think Iām unaware of your schemes. Werenāt you hoping that Xiao Chenxi wouldnāt..."
With a sharp clap, Camille slapped the Bright Saintess across the face, cutting her off: "Saint Di Anfu, I can understand your feelings, but donāt push your luck!"
Camille spoke coldly: "Ling Fengās fate is not something I wanted to see either, but do you really think it was my doing? Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous! Do you think with my capability, I would need to resort to such petty tricks?"
"In simple terms, neither you nor Ling Feng possesses the strength that requires me to resort to such means, understood?" Camille said calmly: "The agreement I previously made with Ling Feng still stands, but... we need to overthrow the Angel World for that to happen!"
šš£šš²š°ššš§š š§šš.šššŗ
Camilleās slap seemed to have wakened the Bright Saintess. She stared dumbfounded at Camille, as if she had recognized her anew. This fierce, cold, and indifferent Camille is probably the real Camille!
Indeed, someone who has managed to lead and grow her group under the pursuit of the Holy Spirit King could not possibly be kind-hearted!
At the same time, the Bright Saintess realized that Camille truly had no reason to deceive her. Moreover... whether her words were factual or not, Ling Feng was already dead!
But Ling Fengās death doesnāt mean that everything is over! The Bright Saintess seemed to feel Ling Fengās gaze watching her from somewhere; for the first time, she felt the heavy burden on her shoulders.
"Alright then, since Ling Feng is gone, and you, Camille, acknowledge your commitment, I hope you remember what you said today!" The Bright Saintess took a deep breath and said: "I will inherit Ling Fengās will, I will bear the burden he left behind, I will continue to seek ways to save Earth, even if it means dying along the way, I will not retreat!"
Once she finished speaking, immense pain filled her heart, as if countless sharp blades were piercing her chest. Recalling every moment with Ling Feng, from meeting on Earth to supporting each other in alternate dimensions, the biggest regret for the Bright Saintess was not having said those three words to Ling Feng!
If given another chance, she would surely say to Ling Feng, "I like you, I love you!" Even though she knew Ling Feng might reject her, it was better than living in regret!
But at this moment, Xiao Chenxi spoke with some confusion: "Mommy, Daddy isnāt dead, why are you arguing about this?"
The Bright Saintess was shocked: "Chenxi, what do you mean by that? Are you saying..."
"Daddy Ling Feng isnāt dead!" Xiao Chenxi said firmly: "I can sense Daddyās aura!"
Camille frowned slightly and then shook her head gently. Even though Chenxi is a Holy Angel, Camille didnāt believe his words because Ling Feng, taken away by the Skeleton Bird, couldnāt possibly have survived, given that he only had God Realm cultivation, which meant nothing more than an ant in the Valley of Dragon Tomb!
But she felt there was no need to say this anymore. If the Bright Saintess was willing to believe the Holy Angelās words, then let her believe it. Having faith in her heart was perhaps a good thing!
"Ling Feng, I believe you wonāt die so easily!" With Xiao Chenxiās assurance, the Bright Saintess clenched her fists: "I will wait for your return, but I will no longer be your burden!"
