Chapter 138: Chapter 136: Qianye's Streaming Light_1
"Can... Can he still be alive...?"
A group of mid-ranking Nightfall Members ran to Fang Ren's side and frowned deeply as they saw his body blasted open and bloody.
"Blood-Returning Flesh-Forming Pills! Didn't Qi'er say he gave us a lot of these pills?"
"But they've all been used up already!"
"What do we do now!"
"Move aside! Let me take a look!"
A man with some medical knowledge rushed to Fang Ren's side. The brown aura from his body seeped into Fang Ren's arm, and within just a few seconds,
He showed a face of grief and anger: "It's over, all his meridians are dead... Right now, he's just a normal person. Even if we had Blood-Returning Flesh-Forming Pills, his ordinary human body wouldn't be able to digest them."
"Damn it!"
The man who had been constantly cursing beside Fang Ren clenched his teeth hard, "Damn it, why did our big brother insist on taking that forbidden drug!"
"If it weren't for this young man, our organization's outer and mid-ranking members would probably suffer ten thousand more casualties."
"Sigh! With injuries like these, I'm afraid even an Immortal coming here wouldn't be able to save him."
"He's still breathing. You guys take care of him, the rest of the outer ranks go underground to rescue people, the middle ranks follow me to fight those high-ranking enemies!"
...
In no time, the members of the Nightfall Organization began to carry out their own tasks again, leaving only the cursing man and two others by Fang Ren's side.
In the central battle zone spanning several kilometers, only Jiang Ling and the General of that section were continuously clashing with their massive Cultivation Techniques. The high-ranking warriors on both sides numbered just over a hundred, but the might unleashed by the war was also terrifyingly intense.
Time ticked away bit by bit, and Jian Qi'er, along with a group of Nightfall Members, had already evacuated the Practitioners from the underground world.
More and more time had passed.
Jiang Ling was covered in wounds in the central battlefield. Because of the poisoning in her meridians, her combat power had decreased significantly.
Fighting to stand, fresh blood kept seeping out from her arms and the blade in her hands trembled, while the black aura around her body became increasingly unstable.
"Jiang Ling! You're doomed to lose this battle! Now, if you surrender, I might consider sparing the others in your organization!" the General thundered,
"Surrender? Haha! If I hadn't fallen into a trap, would you even dare to utter such arrogance?"
Jiang Ling laughed coldly, and once again, the black aura wrapped around her blade and she slashed out a massive black crescent moon.
Seeing this, the General, shrouded in lightning, shattered the crescent moon, and immediately after, he called down celestial lightning to charge at Jiang Ling. Her black aura rose instantly to counter it, but after the brief collision, Jiang Ling's body suffered additional wounds.
"Since you refuse to surrender! Today, your Nightfall Organization shall perish here!" the General shouted.
Grinding her teeth, Jiang Ling roared, "Why have I become like this! Isn't it because you beasts forced me back then! And now you're committing these outrageous and harmful acts! All under the guise of 'for humanity'? You have no conscience at all!"
"You have no idea how much we have sacrificed for Earth!"
"Bullshit! Your sacrifices do not justify making us continue to sacrifice!"
The two clashed again, and the heavens and earth shifted colors.
Meanwhile, Fang Ren, lying on a heap of corpses, had long since stopped breathing and showed no signs of life.
"Damn it! Big brother, why did you leave like this! Little brother hasn't even had the chance to thank you!"
The cursing man kept shouting beside him, a picture of mourning.

At this time, in a classroom at Linyang City Hundred-Mile University.
Bang!
Teacher Huang, with a furious look, slammed his book onto the podium, his hair messily standing up as he yelled, "Has Fang Ren fallen into the toilet!? He hasn't come back to me in forty minutes!"
The class was silent; no one had ever seen Teacher Huang lose his cool like today.
Just before slamming his book, Teacher Huang had changed his hairstyle, since his messy hair had been grabbed by himself into a receding hairline.
Sitting at the back of the class, Bai Qi, holding the little Qianye and sleeping soundly because of the pill given by Fang Ren, was oblivious to the teacher's shouting.
"Jing Haichuan! Li Xingwang!"
Teacher Huang once again pulled at the receding hairline on his head and shouted.
"Present!"
Jing and Li immediately stood up from their desks.
"I command you two to go to the toilet and retrieve Fang Ren! I want to see him in front of me within ten minutes! Otherwise, don't bother coming back either!"
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, Jing and Li immediately leaped out, running toward the bathroom with completely bewildered expressions.
"Why did we just cooperate with that old man?" Jing Haichuan was utterly confused.
"How the hell would I know!"
...
"Heiha!"
Just then, little Qianye suddenly woke up with a start in Bai Qi's arms, climbing out and letting out a shout that filled the entire classroom.
Bai Qi felt something stir and her instincts quickly brought her awake. She opened her panda eyes and looked at little Qianye standing on the desk and yelling, then at the surrounding students staring in their direction, and she suddenly became completely alert.
She immediately hid little Qianye in the drawer and looked around sheepishly with a smile. Apparently, they were still in class, and the teacher was watching her.
From a young age, Bai Qi had been paragon of excellence and perfection in an aristocrat school, so how had she gotten into trouble in this less prestigious school?
"Ahem."
Upon seeing Bai Qi waking up, Teacher Huang hurriedly picked up the textbook and pretended not to have noticed, coughing twice, "Where were we, right, it's this pill..."
All the classmates were also quite understanding. Once they saw Teacher Huang act that way, they immediately cooperated and turned their heads away.
Bai Qi, seeing that the group had spared her, quickly took little Qianye out of the drawer. With a furious look, she scolded it in a low voice, "Are you trying to rebel?!"
"Hee-ha, hee-ha!"
Little Qianye looked at her with a panicked face.
As soon as Bai Qi heard it making noise again, she reached out her hand and, imitating Fang Ren's manner, flicked little Qianye's buttocks, whispering sternly, "Don't think you can be naughty just because your dad isn't here! Mama can discipline you too!"
"Hee-ha, hee-ha!"
Little Qianye didn't listen to her and, freeing itself from her grasp in a few moves, jumped onto the desk. The gray halo on its head expanded instantly as a mass of gray energy kept gathering.
"What are you doing?"
Bai Qi immediately covered it with her hand to prevent others from seeing, looking at it with a puzzled face.
Buzz——Boom!
"Hee-ha!"
Suddenly, a beam of gray light from little Qianye's halo shot towards the sky, piercing through the entire floor and racing towards the heavens.
After the beam of light had shot out, it suddenly seemed exhausted and fell asleep right away.
Bai Qi, looking at the half-meter wide hole in the ceiling that it had created, was completely dumbstruck.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——
Once again, the whole class gazed in her direction; everyone was stunned as they stared at the hole above the classroom.
Teacher Huang on the podium was even more disheveled. He had just sacrificed his teacher image to give Bai Qi a way out, and then she suddenly pulled this...
Embarrassment flushing her face, she hurriedly stood up and said, "I'm sorry, Teacher, I was just... My realm seemed to have become a bit unstable, sorry, everyone."
"Ha... Haha."
Teacher Huang, patting his balding head and chuckling, said, "It's okay, it's okay, Your Highness has exceptional talent; a sudden small breakthrough in your realm is understandable, understandable..."
"Sorry for the disturbance."
Bai Qi spoke and then sat down again, lowering her head in embarrassment. Looking at the exhausted little Qianye sleeping in the palm of her hand, she didn't have the heart to scold it anymore.
"Wait until your dad gets back; he'll deal with you!"
Having said that, Bai Qi then lay down on the desk and fell asleep.

On the battlefield of Linglong Bay.
"Big brother, why did you have to die so young!"
A man with a grief-stricken expression prepared to carry away Fang Ren from the pile of corpses.
"What are you doing?" Another man said, "He's dead, we don't have time to grieve, we need to quickly take care of other matters."
The man with a saddened face carried Fang Ren's corpse on his back and said, "Never mind that, I have to take big brother back to our organization to arrange a burial for him; his contributions to this battle were too great."
As he spoke, he bent down to pick up Fang Ren's sickle; when he grabbed the sickle, he was completely shocked, "Damn! Why is it so heavy!"
"Idiot! You're trying to move a hundred-meter-long sickle by hand? Use True Qi!"
"I can't lift it even with True Qi!"
Buzz——
During their conversation, a buzzing sound suddenly came from the sky.
"What's that?"
A man looked up at the sky and frowned.
"Gray trailing light?"
"Seems like it's heading straight for us."
"What do you mean 'seems like?' It is coming for us! Stop dawdling, run!"
The two men saw the gray trailing light approaching fast from the sky, shouted angrily, and ran with Fang Ren's corpse on their back.
A few seconds later...
"Damn it! Why can this thing track us!"
"Crap!"
The two men frantically ran through the pile of corpses on the battlefield, with a gray trailing light persistently chasing after them.
Boom——
The gray trailing light directly crashed into Fang Ren's body, the two men carrying Fang Ren were knocked rolling into the distance by the impact.
This gray trailing light was precisely the one emitted by little Qianye's halo.
Seeing this, the grieving man immediately scrambled to his feet and ran towards Fang Ren. Seeing Fang Ren's "corpse" overturned by the gray light, he became even more mournful, "Damn! Is there no justice in the world! They're lashing my dead big brother!"
Boom——
Suddenly, a gray light wave emanated from Fang Ren's body.
The body that was lying on the ground suddenly stood up.
"Big... Big bro?"
The grieving man was dumbfounded. After a few seconds, he came to his senses and yelled as he ran off, "Shit! Big bro's come back to life!"
