I tried to kill the heroines of destiny, but they ended up chasing after me.

……

The tomb of the Emperor Sword Clan, the place where the Tree of Time is located.

"Finally left the Emperor Sword Clan? This path of cause and effect has been truly arduous!" The leaves of the Tree of Time swayed, seemingly muttering to itself with complex emotions.

"However... this world needs people like this! Otherwise, no one can save the True Profound Continent..."

But at that moment, an extremely powerful voice, as if transcending time and space, directly reached the mind of the Tree of Time.

Do you still believe there is any hope for this world?

The Tree of Time seemed aware of the voice's presence and showed no surprise, simply saying softly, "As long as the day of the universe's destruction has not yet arrived, there is hope for this world to be saved..."

"Hope? Hmph! The hope you speak of only has two years left to live!"

"Two years...that's enough..." the Tree of Time murmured.

"Tch! You're really optimistic! But whatever, I'll be going to rescue my master soon anyway, and once my master appears, things will definitely change dramatically in the True Profound Continent." The person said softly, though there seemed to be a hint of probing in his tone.

"Oh? Is that so? So that's why you had time to chat with me about all this nonsense today. You just wanted to know if I would stop you!" Tree of Time directly saw through the person's thoughts and said.

But that person did not deny it, and replied decisively: "That's right! After all, your power of cause and effect still has some influence on us outsiders."

"I see! Then don't worry! Now that I've chosen him, I won't do anything unnecessary."

"Hehe! That would be best." After saying that, the person seemed to have completed his task, and in the next instant lost interest in talking to the Tree of Time, and soon fell silent.

But after a while, the leaves of the tree of time seemed to sway even more violently in the wind.

……

As for Huang Quan, after leaving the icy plains, he originally planned to go to a certain place to take care of something, but on the way, he met a woman, a woman with twin ponytails.

Without a doubt, she was none other than the Black Nether Heavenly Venerable of the Imperial Demon Realm.

"It's you?" Huang Quan, who saw the woman in the sky, immediately showed a surprised expression.

“What are you? I don’t have a name! Call me Ayou!” Ayou said seriously.

"Uh..." Huang Quan was taken aback, but then he realized what was going on: "What do you want from me?"

Huang Quan originally thought she should have returned to the Imperial Demon Realm, but he didn't expect her to appear here. It was obvious that she was deliberately waiting for him.

"It's nothing, I'm just bored and wanted to walk with you for a while."

"Follow me for a while?" Huang Quan asked, even more puzzled.

“That’s right,” Ayou nodded.

"I'm really sorry, but I don't want anyone following me," Huang Quan refused without hesitation.

Strangely, upon hearing Huang Quan's words, A You not only didn't get angry, but instead laughed and replied without hesitation, "Hahaha! Thank you so much! Goodbye."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ayou moved swiftly, leaving her original spot and flying rapidly towards the direction of the Imperial Demon Domain.

Seeing this, Huang Quan was somewhat bewildered.

"Huh? A lunatic?"

Wu Xuantian Forest.

This ancient, naturally occurring geographical location remains as perilous and dangerous as ever...

Countless people have died here, and countless people have tried to explore this place, but despite all this, its secrets remain far beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Therefore, while possessing an unimaginably vast range, it also possesses an air of mystery...

However, this mystery is probably nearing its end in one person's eyes...

This person is Huang Quan!

At this moment, Huang Quan, in this Wuxuan Tianlin, is rapidly heading towards the inner perimeter of Wuxuan Tianlin and even deeper places in an extremely strange way.

He appears to be taking steps, but with each step, a clone-like figure appears behind him. As he takes a step, the original clone disappears and reappears where he stepped.

His pace seemed very slow, but before he knew it, he had already entered the inner boundary of the Wuxuan Heavenly Forest from the outer area.

It's obvious that Huang Quan's strength has increased significantly compared to a year ago.

And right there, he stopped and looked ahead.

"Time flies. A year has passed in the blink of an eye, and my agreement with the Ancient Primordial Divine Tree is still far from being fulfilled..."

"It doesn't matter, this cause and effect will end sooner or later anyway. But Ancient Primordial Divine Tree, no matter what your reasons for scheming against me, you must pay the corresponding price..."

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, but in an instant, it turned into reminiscence.

He thought of someone.

"Yu Fei... how are you?"

……

Xiyu.

The peaceful and tranquil Xiyu is no more. It is now filled with the flames of war and the smoke of battle. Countless bodies lie on the cold ground, waiting to be devoured by wild beasts and the earth.

The war started even faster than the Ancient Divine Tree had predicted. In less than half a year, Dong Chen launched its attack. At first, Xi Yu, being descendants of a powerful clan, was able to resist and hold out. However, for some reason, the other two clans, who had previously been neutral, joined Dong Chen, forming a three-clan alliance. This caught west Yu off guard, causing them to suffer repeated defeats.

Now, all that remains is a territory spanning a hundred miles, which they are struggling to maintain. Perhaps because the area has shrunk and is easier to defend, Xiyu has managed to barely hold on to the situation. However, the Xiyu leadership understands that this is not a long-term solution...

Of these, the Ancient Primordial Divine Tree, in particular, knows best...

……

The Divine Tree Realm where the Ancient Divine Tree resides.

The tree looked much older; its leaves, like those of autumn, had turned a withered yellow…

While it wouldn't be accurate to say it's completely dejected, its energy has gradually waned over the past few days...

“Brother, are you in such a hurry? In the past six months, you’ve absorbed the faith items of the other two races, strengthening your faith power. That’s indeed a way to surpass me, but your power is ultimately illegitimate; it’s ultimately just something separated from my body… Once I obtain his faith power, you, no, the entire three races will be no match for me…”

"I'm afraid you won't have that chance..." Suddenly, a leaf drifted out of nowhere and landed in front of the Ancient Primordial God Tree. However, there was an eye in the leaf, staring intently at it.

"The person you're talking about isn't in Xiyu right now, so what can you do to stop me?"

"You!" Upon hearing this, the Ancient Divine Tree was suddenly speechless.

Indeed, the timing of the attack was beyond the expectations of the Ancient Divine Tree. According to its plan, Huang Quan should not return for another year. In case of any unforeseen circumstances, it had taken another step to ensure Huang Quan's control upon his return. Although it knew that Huang Quan might develop some other emotions, there was still a six-month gap before the plan was finalized.

"Haha... Just wait! Not only those two, but you are mine too!!!" After saying that, the leaf suddenly burst into black flames and eventually disappeared completely.

"Damn it! Even so, I won't let you have your way!!" At this moment, a crazy idea was forming in the mind of the Ancient Primordial Divine Tree.

……

Half a day later.

Finally, Huang Quan arrived in Xiyu, but his brows furrowed. The Xiyu he remembered was completely overturned by the scene before him.

In the distance, he saw two enormous trees, their branches flailing wildly...

One tree has a black trunk, and the other has a yellow trunk.

And that yellow tree trunk is none other than the Ancient Primordial Spirit Tree...

He also saw countless people dressed in various ways fighting desperately around the two large trees below...

One side was dressed in yellow, and the other side was dressed in black.

The yellow clothing belongs to the Xiyu village.

The last thing he saw was three people in the air, surrounding something, casting spells...

In the end, that person died and turned into dust.

And this person was the one who was sent to the Yellow Springs for the trial, but unfortunately, he is now dead...

However, despite seeing so much, he still couldn't see Yu Fei.

However, the fierce battle made Huang Quan realize that the Xiyu village had reached its end. Today was probably the last battle. If they could survive, Xiyu would survive; if they couldn't, they would be wiped out!

Of course, Xi Yu Huang Quan didn't have much goodwill towards him to begin with, and with the added scheming of the Ancient Yuan Divine Tree, he naturally couldn't get involved. However, Yu Fei's rescue back then, that kind of affection, and the loneliness that only the two of them understood, he didn't want Yu Fei to lose this native "home." After all, his previous revenge against the Ancient Yuan Divine Tree's scheming was only directed at the Ancient Yuan Divine Tree...

After all, from the perspective of "family," this reading reveals a difference between them for Yu Fei...

Besides, he felt that Yu Fei's whereabouts must be related to the Ancient Yuan God Tree, so even for Yu Fei's sake, he had to get involved!

After a moment of silence, Huang Quan sighed, and a chilling aura silently emanated from his body, like scattered flowers, gradually moving towards the battlefield until it completely covered the entire area.

This cold air was colorless and blended into the weather, so no one noticed it.

"To make matters worse, it's snowing!" Huang Quan's eyes flickered slightly as he murmured softly.

Suddenly, within the range of that chill, countless snowflakes drifted down from the sky without warning. These snowflakes seemed to descend from the outside world, causing the people belonging to the three-race alliance on the battlefield to feel a chill in both body and heart at the same time.

But in the blink of an eye, their senses returned to normal, as if it had just been an illusion.

However, this only applied to ordinary combatants. The experts from the three races, whose strength surpassed theirs, sensed something was amiss in an instant. Three powerful divine senses immediately enveloped the entire area, trying to find the root of this "abnormality".

Huang Quan naturally understood that this kind of further trouble would attract attention, but instead of using his divine sense to protect himself, he took the initiative to step into the divine sense circle of those three divine senses.

He has his own plans!

At that moment, the three men, upon noticing Huang Quan, flashed red light in their eyes and moved in unison, immediately forming a triangle that surrounded Huang Quan, who was already standing in the void...

"Who are you?" The one who spoke was Dong Chen—Chen Yujie.

"Just a passerby!" Huang Quan's expression remained unchanged.

"Hmm?" If it weren't for the extremely dangerous feeling the person in front of him gave Chen Yujie, he would have killed him long ago. Why would he waste so much time saying this? "Since you're just a passerby, please put away your spiritual technique and leave!"

"Fine! I can take it, but you Xiyu can't touch it, otherwise... you'll bear the consequences!!" Huang Quan stretched out his left hand, pointed at the Ancient Yuan God Tree, and said decisively.

However, Huang Quan's warning had no effect; instead, it enraged Chen Yujie: "Let's see how you make me bear the consequences! Kill him!!"

After he finished speaking, the other two seemed to follow Chen Yujie's lead and attacked without the slightest hesitation!

"Kill the heavens!!" A figure inside clasped his hands together, chanting incantations. His entire body suddenly transformed into a massive, imposing blade, seemingly possessing the power to destroy the heavens, and cleaved down towards the Yellow Springs!

"Blade Sea!" The other person waved his long sleeves and disappeared as well. Countless wind blades suddenly materialized where he stood and surged towards the Yellow Springs like a giant wave!

Finally, it was Chen Yujie's turn. His eyes flashed with a fierce light as he shouted, "Don't cross the line!!"

Suddenly, his body began to compress rapidly, but he didn't seem to be in any pain. Instead, he seemed quite excited. As the compression continued, his body eventually turned into a line, just as he had said.

The line that the human had transformed into was so thin that it was almost imperceptible unless one looked closely. But suddenly, the line transformed into a rainbow, and then two attacks, like arrows released from a bow, shot straight toward the Yellow Springs!
