Rebirth of the Scumbag and the Retribution of the White Lotus

The collision of black mist and golden light was like the falling of a star. A violent energy surge tore through space, and the air around her seemed to tremble. Zhao Shufang felt an irresistible force pulling her into the center of the vortex. Her body felt as if it were being slashed by countless tiny blades, and excruciating pain swept through her.

Yet, in the face of all this, she remained undeterred. Endless determination and tenacity surged within her, a strength that came from deep within her heart—not just for herself, but for her former family, her former friends, this world, and all those who had been tormented by fate.

She tightly grasped the talisman in her hand, a sneer curling up at the corner of her mouth, "Even if you are the 'Dominator', what can you do?"

The 'ruler' within the black fog seemed to have heard her challenge, and deep laughter echoed from all directions: "You think you can break my shackles? You are nothing but ants."

Before he finished speaking, the black fog suddenly grew larger, rapidly engulfing the two of them. The oppressive feeling was almost suffocating. Zhao Shufang's heartbeat was as violent as thunder. She could almost feel her strength being drained away, but she remained steadfast. She took a deep breath, her gaze sharp as a blade.

"You're wrong," she gritted her teeth, "You think you can control everything, but you forget that all constraints will be broken one day!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Lingyuan rushed forward, the spiritual power in his hand condensed into a stream of air, and rushed straight into the black fog. This time, he did not hold back at all, pouring all his spiritual power into it, almost erupting with earth-shattering power.

"You're right," Lu Lingyuan said in a low but firm voice, "We may be ants, but ants can also shake the world!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his attack collided violently with the black mist, setting off a massive storm. The two forces clashed, and the air seemed to be filled with thunderous rumbles, the ground shook, and space trembled.

A sneer flashed in the eyes of the incarnation of the "Dominator" under the mask. It ignored Lu Lingyuan's attack and concentrated all its strength to pounce on Zhao Shufang.

"You are destined to be unable to surpass my power." The voice of the 'Dominator' came again, with unquestionable majesty. "Today, I will completely suppress all your resistance."

Zhao Shufang felt the air around her freeze, her spiritual energy suppressed to the point where she could barely move. She knew if this continued, she would be completely crushed. At this moment, she suddenly remembered something—the "Heaven-Defying Talisman."

"I can't give up." Zhao Shufang said to herself.

She suddenly opened her eyes, and the light of the talisman in her hand suddenly became dazzling. She used all her strength to bring the power of the talisman to its extreme.

"Break the Heaven-Defying Talisman for me!"

The talisman suddenly emitted a golden light that shot straight into the sky. The black mist in the air was instantly dispersed, and the surrounding space began to distort. The powerful shockwave caused the incarnation of the "Dominator" to take a few steps back.

However, Zhao Shufang's face also turned pale, and she could almost feel the spiritual power in her body drying up. Every bit of her strength was exhausted, but she still did not give up.

"Ling Yuan," she whispered, "Are you ready?"

Lu Lingyuan had already rushed to her side, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He clenched his fists and looked at her with a sharp gaze: "Ready."

Without another word, the two men tacitly gathered all their spiritual energy together. The talismans in their hands merged with the spiritual energy to form a massive ball of light. The light gradually grew larger, as if it could illuminate the entire world, filled with endless power.

The avatar of the Overlord finally sensed something was amiss, and the look beneath its mask grew increasingly serious. It sensed an unprecedented threat bearing down on it, and the black mist began to destabilize, even retreating slightly.

"You are actually able to..." The 'Dominator' whispered, but then sneered, "Even if your power is temporarily strong, how long can it last? You will never be able to surpass me!"

It stretched out its palm, and the black mist surged again, almost completely submerging the two. However, Zhao Shufang and Lu Lingyuan did not retreat at all. The energy emanating from the light ball became stronger and stronger, gradually suppressing the black mist.

"You're wrong," Zhao Shufang finally spoke, her tone calm and firm. "You're not invincible. True power lies not in controlling everything, but in being able to transcend everything."

Her words were filled with determination, like a ray of light piercing the darkness and striking the heart of the 'Dominator'.

At that moment, the avatar of the "Dominator" finally wavered, its power becoming unstable, the black mist's form began to distort, and it gradually lost control. A flash of panic flashed in its eyes, but was quickly suppressed.

"No! You can't..." The 'Dominator' seemed to sense the decline of his own power and roared.

Just as it was about to strike back, Zhao Shufang and Lu Lingyuan's light balls finally made complete contact with it. A golden light burst forth, completely dispersing the black mist. The surrounding space began to vibrate, as if the entire world was collapsing.

The figure of the Overlord began to dissipate, finally vanishing completely in the light. The entire battlefield was filled with silence, as if time had stopped at that moment.

Zhao Shufang and Lu Lingyuan stood there, breathing rapidly, their clothes soaked with sweat. They knew that although this battle seemed like a victory, it had also come at a huge price.

"We succeeded." Zhao Shufang finally breathed, a trace of fatigue and relief in her eyes.

"Yes," Lu Lingyuan nodded, his eyes still firm, "but this is just the beginning. We still need to walk the road ahead together."

Just as the two of them were silent, a ray of light suddenly cracked in the sky, and then a powerful airflow swept in, carrying an irresistible pressure. Zhao Shufang and Lu Lingyuan exchanged a glance, and an uneasy premonition rose in their hearts - this battle was far from over.
