The End!
No! Fakc! Shift!
An Yi jolted awake as if from a nightmare, a fine layer of cold sweat already beading on his forehead.
Hiss! That hurts!
An indescribable wave of pain assaulted him. An Yi gritted his teeth, his entire brain feeling dizzy and disoriented.
"An Yi, you're awake!"
Mu Qingyi's voice, filled with pleasant surprise, reached him.
"Qingyi..."
An Yi looked at Mu Qingyi's exquisitely beautiful yet slightly pale and weary face. He was momentarily dazed before finally snapping back to reality.
He remembered—he had used Devour to absorb Shen Muxuan's ice spiritual power and then collapsed.
He thought he would die, but it seemed he had survived.
"Then... Muxuan..."
Thinking of something, An Yi spoke anxiously.
Mu Qingyi gave a gentle smile. "She's here."
An Yi sat up and looked, only to discover the girl sleeping soundly at the foot of the bed. It was none other than Shen Muxuan.
"She's saved..."
A smile tugged at the corner of An Yi's mouth as he gently stroked her hair.
Shen Muxuan, in her deep sleep, looked somewhat frail, but her stunningly beautiful face had returned to normal.
Mu Qingyi's eyes held a trace of fond indulgence. "This silly girl waited for you to wake up. She hasn't slept for two whole days and nights."
"Don't disturb her. She's weak now; let her sleep more," An Yi said softly, slowly getting up. He lifted Shen Muxuan onto the bed and covered her with the blanket.
"Where are you going?" Mu Qingyi asked, lightly biting her lower lip.
An Yi curled his lips into a smile, reassuring her, "To take care of some business. I'll be back soon."
"I'll go with you!" Mu Qingyi stated solemnly, as if she already knew what An Yi was about to do.
However, after using the Green Kite Array, Mu Qingyi was severely injured. Her face still showed signs of exhaustion, something An Yi couldn't possibly miss.
An Yi chuckled softly and planted a light kiss on her forehead. "Rest well. Wait for me to come back!"
With that, An Yi opened the door.
Brilliant, dazzling sunlight streamed in!
Outside.
A force of four to five hundred people stood ready, waiting at the entrance.
"All four hundred seventy-three members of the Asura Gate are assembled and ready!" Bai Xiu said gravely, a rare glint of determination in his eyes.
Behind him stood Kim Jung-ho, Xiao Yixuan, Gu Changfeng, Ning Er, Tu Langlang, and others.
An Yi strode forward, a fierce, chilling aura of killing intent swirling around him.
"Move out! Target: the Heavenly Demon Sect!"
Heavenly Demon Sect.
Suddenly, sword energy crisscrossed the air!
The roof was ripped right off.
Inside, a senior brother and junior sister were... discussing martial arts.
The senior brother was startled out of his wits.
The junior sister below let out a terrified scream.
"Wh-what's going on?!"
The senior brother frantically scrambled to put his clothes back on.
He had just stepped outside when a large broadsword swept past, severing his head.
Xiao Yike, brandishing his broadsword, roared in anger, "Shameless dogs! I couldn't stand listening anymore!"
By now, figures were charging up the main peak of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
The Heavenly Demon Sect disciples, caught completely off guard, met their doom.
Before long, bloodshed had swept through the entire sect.
An Yi walked at the forefront. With each step he took, a Heavenly Demon Sect martial artist fell.
The many Asura Gate warriors behind him were also seeing red. Blades flashed and swords gleamed, filling the Heavenly Demon Sect as they fought their way from the mountain gate all the way to the main peak!
The Heavenly Demon Sect, having already lost most of its main forces, stood no chance against them.
Bai Xiu, lightning crackling around his spear tip, shattered the bars of a cage.
The scene inside made countless people's scalps go numb.
The air reeked of decay. Naked female corpses were tied to torture racks, bloodied and a horrifying sight.
Ning Er, who had followed, was greatly shaken upon seeing this. Tears of blood welled in his eyes.
"Xiao Mei... Huanhuan... How could these beasts do such a thing?!"
Among these female corpses were many common women who had been abducted.
But some were also maidservants of the Heavenly Demon Sect who had gone missing from time to time.
Ning Er had foolishly believed all along that these people had genuinely disappeared!
The remaining living women in the prison were also covered in bruises, their eyes vacant, numb, devoid of any spark of life.
"The Heavenly Demon Sect... is even more beastly than the legends say," Gu Changfeng said, closing his eyes, unable to bear the sight, his grip tightening on his sword.
If the Green Kite Pavilion hadn't held its defense and had been overrun by the five sects, would the girls of the Green Kite Pavilion have ended up like them?
"Kill!"
Bai Xiu turned, looking toward those opulent palaces, lightning coiling around his body!
That day was one of earth-shattering news for the entire Immortal Gate world.
The Heavenly Demon Sect, Jade Mountain Sect, Fire Ghost Sect, Eagle Claw School, and Blazing Sword Manor.
Five great sects fell, brutally exterminated!
The perpetrator was a previously unheard-of force: the Asura Gate.
The Asura Gate's leader, the Night Emperor, An Yi.
Overnight, his name echoed throughout the Immortal Gate, becoming synonymous with a heinous demon.
Ding! Side Quest [Sect Extermination], Completion: 1000/1000!
Ding! Quest Rewards: Evil Power +50! Prestige +10,000! All Asura Gate members' strength increased by 5%!
Two system notifications sounded.
An Yi sheathed the Dragon Fang Demon Sword and stood atop a mountain peak, looking down upon this scene of human tragedy.
Bai Xiu stood behind him, saying thoughtfully, "The Immortal Gate world is more brutal than the mortal world. There's no absolute order here. It's the law of the jungle. Having a hard fist means having the right to act with impunity."
That day, they had witnessed too many horrific, inhuman cases.
The Heavenly Demon Sect used women as cultivation cauldrons.
The Fire Ghost Sect needed to consume human blood for cultivation!
Even the seemingly righteous Blazing Sword Manor was secretly using infant children to forge swords in the shadows!
An Yi said calmly, "Have we found out who was behind it?"
"The Hundred Ghosts Sect! The two Demon Halls, Hei Geng and Bi Jia!" Bai Xiu replied solemnly.
Hundred Ghosts Sect! Demon Halls!
Hearing these familiar names, a flash of killing intent appeared in An Yi's eyes.
This Hundred Ghosts Sect was truly a lingering pest!
Bai Xiu added, "Unlike in the mortal world, these two Demon Halls in the Immortal Gate are immensely powerful. They've each dominated their territory for over a century."
"Hah, interesting."
An Yi said flatly, his eyes icy cold.
They had schemed for Shen Muxuan's life and orchestrated such a grand plot. How could he possibly let the Hundred Ghosts Sect off!
"Old Lin and Qian Qian are on their way too. They should be arriving soon," Bai Xiu mentioned, a faint smile curling his lips.
The strength of the Asura Gate was not that simple. The real show was just beginning.
"Let's go."
An Yi spoke and turned to leave.
Bai Xiu twisted his spear apart to retract it, saying coolly, "We've made quite a commotion. We'll probably draw the attention of other factions."
"Are you afraid?" An Yi asked with a faint smile.
Bai Xiu grinned, showing his teeth. "How could I be! They're just a bunch of trash!"
The battle was over.
A cold wind howled.
Sweeping across this scarred and devastated land.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
