Nine Yang Life and Death Transformation

However, the Soul Emperor gently shook his head. With a wave of his hand, a flash of light appeared, and the horrific scene of the Heavenly Sect's annihilation instantly materialized on the Six Paths Disc. Seeing this, Gu Yue was struck dumb, as if by lightning. Her heart trembled violently, and she nearly lost her balance. Her body shook uncontrollably as she murmured, "Why...why did it turn out like this?"

Wu Feilong, who had been standing to the side, remained expressionless. He calmly observed everything unfolding before him and said softly, "Sect Master, you need not be too sad. As Buddhism says, everyone has their own tribulations and destiny. Like my elder brother, although he has passed away, he has now been reincarnated in Taiping City and is living a carefree and happy life. It is true that the cause sown in the previous life has yielded the result in this life."

"No, why did this happen?" Gu Yue's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief, his heart overflowing with endless regret and guilt. He never imagined things would develop to this point.

The Soul Emperor beside him slowly said, "Your Dao Heart is unstable." This simple sentence struck Gu Yue's heart like a heavy hammer, causing him to tremble.

At this moment, Mu Qingdi, who had been silent all along, suddenly moved. With a wave of his hands, a powerful force erupted, tearing the void in front of him apart. Then, he turned to look at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Go back. You bear heavy responsibilities. The human race still needs you." After saying this, he flashed and disappeared into the shattered void.

Just then, the Soul Emperor gently waved his arm. In an instant, a Taixu Cauldron exuding a terrifying aura shot out from the Soul Venerable's body beside Gu Yue, streaking across the sky like a shooting star, and finally landed steadily in front of Wu Feilong.

The Soul Emperor gazed at Wu Feilong and said slowly, "Make good use of this cauldron. The Slaughter Emperor is not so easy to deal with. I made an agreement with him that neither of us would interfere in worldly affairs for a thousand years. However, a thousand years from now, there will probably be a great calamity for all realms. After that, everything will depend on you."

Upon hearing this, Wu Feilong immediately stepped forward, respectfully clasped his hands in a salute to the Soul Emperor, and said gratefully, "Thank you, senior! I will certainly live up to your expectations." After saying this, he carefully put away the Taixu Cauldron.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Yue, Wu Feilong, and another companion exchanged glances, then took flight together, transforming into three streaks of light that rushed into the void and sped toward the Tianyuan Continent.

Before long, the three of them arrived safely on the Tianyuan Continent. Upon landing, Ying Shuntian headed straight for Taiping City without hesitation. In the distance, he saw his good brothers patrolling the city, weapons in hand. Instantly, scenes of fighting side-by-side and sharing drinks together flooded his mind.

Ying Shuntian was overwhelmed with emotion, almost unable to contain himself and rush forward to embrace his brothers, weeping and pouring out his longing for them over the years. But in the end, reason prevailed over emotion. He suppressed his impulse and simply stood quietly at a distance, watching his brothers with a smile that unconsciously crept onto his lips. For him at that moment, being able to see his brothers safe and sound from afar was enough to make him content.

Wu Feilong followed closely behind Gu Yue, and the two embarked on their journey back to Tianzong. When they arrived, they found that all the elders who were supposed to be in charge of the sect had disappeared without a trace, and the entire Tianzong was deserted. Only Wan Hailou was there, silently cleaning up the mess.

"Sect Master! You've finally returned!" Upon seeing Gu Yue and Wu Feilong's return, Wan Hailou immediately knelt down in excitement, tears streaming down his face, crying like a child who had suffered a great injustice.

Seeing this, Gu Yue quickly stepped forward, reached out and helped Wan Hailou up, and gently comforted him, "Child, get up quickly, don't be so sad. I already know about this matter, and I suppose it is a calamity destined for our Heavenly Sect."

Wan Hailou raised his head, his face streaked with tears, and looked at Gu Yue, saying, "Elder Wu, even the highly respected Elder Pei..." He choked up again before he could finish speaking.

Wu Feilong quickly interjected, "Don't worry, before we set off, I already extracted a wisp of Senior Pei's primordial spirit. As long as we nourish and replenish this wisp of spirit with elixirs, I believe he will recover completely soon. Sect Master, why don't we return to Taiping City together first?"

However, Gu Yue gently shook her head and replied with a somber expression, "You two should go back first. I want to stay here alone and cultivate in seclusion." With that, she turned around and walked slowly and heavily into the Heavenly Sect. Her lonely and desolate figure gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

After Wu Feilong returned to Taiping City with Pei Wushuang's wisp of primordial spirit, he immediately began fusing the two Taixu Cauldrons. To his surprise, the fused Taixu Cauldrons were much more powerful than before. Following this, Wu Feilong tirelessly began collecting various wandering souls, preparing to use their power to refine a Soul Pill capable of nourishing Pei Wushuang's primordial spirit.

After several days and nights of tireless effort, Wu Feilong finally succeeded in refining a Soul Pill with exceptional efficacy. He then searched far and wide for a suitable skeleton and used his profound magical skills to help Pei Wushuang reconstruct her physical body. However, due to the severe injuries she suffered, Pei Wushuang's cultivation level inevitably plummeted from the Divine Lord Realm to the first level of the Nascent Soul Realm. But regardless, at least her life was saved.

After finishing these tasks, Wu Feilong strode briskly to the front of Wangwang Steamed Bun Shop. Inside, He Wei was intently kneading dough, the dough constantly changing shape in his hands, as if it had been given life. Long Jing stood outside, enthusiastically greeting passing customers. As for He Wang, the little fellow held a wooden sword, practicing moves with great enthusiasm, occasionally letting out shouts of "Hey ha!"

Upon seeing Wu Feilong arrive, Long Jing's face immediately lit up with a delighted smile. She hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully said, "Lord City Lord, what brings you here? Please come in!"

Wu Feilong smiled and waved his hand, then asked with concern, "How is your family living here?"

Long Jing replied gratefully, "It's all good, Lord City Lord! The security here is excellent, and the neighbors are all very friendly. This is all thanks to your excellent governance! May I ask what kind of filling your buns would you like?"

Without hesitation, Wu Feilong said, "Then give me a few with minced meat." He walked to the shop in front of the door, picked up a wooden stool, and slowly sat down. At this moment, He Ying, who had been silently watching them, suddenly had tears welling up in her eyes, and tears streamed uncontrollably down her cheeks. She cried out involuntarily, "Father, Mother..."
