Crimson blood gushed from Huo Qubing's cracked body like a burst dam, quickly spreading across the ground.

The blood seemed to have a life of its own, flowing continuously along the cracks and ravines in the ground, leaving behind shocking trails of blood wherever it went.

Upon seeing this, Chloe's heart tightened. She involuntarily took a step forward, her lips parted slightly as if she wanted to say something, but only a low call escaped her lips: "Champion Marquis..."

Huo Qubing's body trembled slightly, but his voice was unusually firm: "Chloe, cut the earth open for me, and let me take one last look at Chang'an."

Chloe's brows furrowed, and a hint of hesitation and pain flashed in her eyes.

The Holy Lord once said that it is almost impossible for humans to become gods, so why was Huo Qubing so persistent?

"The Holy Lord said that it is almost impossible for humans to become gods, so why do you still..." Chloe's voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.

A look of helplessness and confusion appeared on her young face.

Despite her extensive knowledge and experience, Chloe is still just a young girl whose mind is not yet fully mature.

The scene before her eyes was far beyond her comprehension, leaving her feeling completely lost.

Knowing it was impossible, Huo Qubing's body was already overburdened, yet he still went against the will of Heaven.

Is this behavior brave or foolish?

Upon hearing Chloe's words, Huo Qubing's body trembled violently, and his consciousness began to blur.

His eyes were fixed on the surging torrent of national destiny in the sky, a hint of helplessness appearing on his face.

Time is running out...

When Zhan Yuwu saw Huo Qubing's appearance, his eyes turned red, and he kept pounding the ground, causing blood to flow freely.

"Why can't humans become gods?"

Just then, Yan Zhong slowly opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice, "My lord, it's time to take your medicine..."

"Take medicine?"

After hearing Yan Zhong's words, Huo Qubing, lying in a pool of blood, burst into laughter.

The simplified version of the elixir cannot prolong life, but it can leave a seed of the Dao in the body, creating an extraordinary physical body that slowly grows stronger over time. It is incredibly precious. It is said that the uncle used his blood as a guide and his body as the seed.

However, before that, the body needs to be shattered, the soul extracted and combined with the nation's destiny, and the body needs to undergo a long period of reconstruction, which is extremely painful.

"Very well." Huo Qubing sighed, as if a huge weight had finally been lifted from his heart.

He knew that he had failed to break through that seemingly insurmountable barrier on his own, and this was a reality he had to face.

Zhan Yuwu, Yan Zhong, and Chloe exchanged glances, their eyes meeting, each revealing the reluctance and helplessness in the other's gaze.

It was far too cruel to ask them to tear Huo Qubing's body apart with their own hands. Who could bear to do it?

In that moment of silence, a voice suddenly came from behind, breaking the stillness.

Gongyang Wan, dressed in an elegant ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), walked over with light steps.

Her appearance drew everyone's attention to her.

Gongyang Wan is the pinnacle of humanity and a loyal follower of Zhao Wentian.

Her current strength is unfathomable, and it seems that nothing can stop her.

“Deputy Chief, you…” Zhan Yuwu looked at Gongyang Wan in surprise, as if he wanted to say something, but didn’t know how to start.

“If you can’t do it, then I will.” Gongyang Wan’s voice was calm and firm. “This is my mission.”

There was no hesitation in her words, as if it were all destined.

“I have more experience than you in shattering bodies.”

Gongyang Wan continued, "I'm very fast, and he couldn't feel the pain at all."

Upon hearing Gongyang Wan's words, Huo Qubing's body relaxed.

He slowly raised his right hand and put the precious elixir into his mouth. This elixir might be his last glimmer of hope.

"Gongyang Wan... no, Aunt!"

Huo Qubing's voice trembled slightly as he looked at Gongyang Wan, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

"Aunt?" Gongyang Wan looked at Huo Qubing, a faint smile appearing on her lips.

She loved listening to it, she really loved listening to it.

Upon seeing Gongyang Wan's appearance, Huo Qubing became very relaxed.

As if he had thought of something, he slowly raised his hand and swallowed the pill.

"Eight months... Do you know where the evil spirits under the jurisdiction of the Suppression Bureau came from?"

"No need to say anything, I know," Gongyang Wan said gently.

"Lin Qiye, you, and I, although we have all reached the extremes of humanity, who else could be able to easily capture divine beasts but him?"

As she watched Huo Qubing's pupils gradually dilate, her heart ached, and she clenched her teeth as if she wanted to crush all the pain and helplessness between her teeth.

All the evil spirits in the entire Han Dynasty have been eradicated, but that guy claims to be going into seclusion, but in reality he is searching for evil spirits everywhere.

He did this simply so that Gongyang Wan could rise to power quickly.

Because Gongyang Wan's forbidden realm, [Eternal Beauty], needs to constantly devour evil spirits to strengthen itself.

"My uncle told me that if I die, he will wait for you at the pavilion ten miles outside the city."

Huo Qubing took a deep breath and slowly began to speak, his voice trembling slightly.

"Of all of us, only you can stay with your uncle for the long term. The future of the Zhenxie Division rests on your shoulders."

Gongyang Wan's feelings were extremely complicated. She gazed at Huo Qubing, her eyes filled with both reluctance and helplessness.

Finally, she shakily reached out her hand, and a willow twig slowly emerged from it.

"Huo Qubing, bear with it a little longer," she said softly, her voice revealing a hint of reluctance.

As she spoke, the willow branches seemed to come alive, gently wrapping around Huo Qubing's body.

In an instant, Huo Qubing let out a heart-wrenching roar, a sound that seemed to pierce through one's soul.

Amidst this chilling roar, his body was gradually entangled by willow branches, eventually turning into a pile of fleshy pulp.

However, within that pool of flesh lay a heart enveloped in nine-colored light, like a dazzling pearl.

Gongyang Wan carefully held the heart in her palm, as if it were the most precious treasure in the world.

"Respectfully bidding farewell to the chief of the Exorcism Bureau, the greatest man in human history... Marquis Huo Qubing."

Gongyang Wan's voice echoed in the wind, carrying endless sorrow and respect.

"Respectfully seeing off the chief officer..."

On this day, the Zhenxie Division was shaken to the four corners of the land.

Golden light shone brightly, and a golden dragon symbolizing good fortune rolled above Chang'an City.

The sound of dragons roaring never ceased.

......

boom! !

Lin Qiye descended from the sky.

His gaze swept over the crowd, finally settling on the heart in Gongyang Wan's hand.

"That is......"

Lin Qiye's pupils contracted slightly.

"Brother Qiye!" Seeing Lin Qiye descend from the sky, Zhan Yuwu, his face deathly pale, gritted his teeth. "Lord Marquis..."
