Seeing Yin Hu make his move, Qianqian immediately took out the Heavenly Demon Zither.
She swept her right hand across the strings.
Blades of sound shot toward Yin Hu.
With a roar that shook the heavens, Yin Hu shattered every wave of sound. Then he opened his jaws and lunged at Qianqian.
……
Elsewhere.
Chen Feng and Su Yuanshan, who were locked in battle, also realized that something was wrong.
“Who is Yin Hu fighting?”
“What’s with the sound of that zither?”
“Could Yin Hu and Qianqian have started fighting?”
Chen Feng grew anxious.
He knew that Qianqian had already become a Martial God.
But he didn’t believe she had any chance of defeating Yin Hu.
Besides, as a half-demon, Yin Hu was hardly one to show mercy to anyone else.
Su Yuanshan threw his head back and laughed.
“It looks like your half-demon has started fighting another Martial God. You seem pretty worried.”
“But now you have a difficult choice to make.”
A streak of fire tore across the sky and shot straight toward the earth.
Chen Feng abruptly raised his head and looked toward the heavens.
He stared at the falling meteor, ready to dodge at any moment.
Su Yuanshan, however, merely smiled.
“You don’t need to be so nervous. I’m not using it to attack you. It’s headed for Kunlun City.”
Chen Feng was shocked.
His eyes widened.
Su Yuanshan continued, “In a few seconds, Kunlun City and the surrounding cities will vanish from this world.”
“You have two choices. Go stop that boulder, or stay here and continue fighting me.”
“As the Great Xia hero in their hearts, which will you choose?”
Chen Feng’s brows knitted tightly.
He glanced at Su Yuanshan, then at the streak of light hurtling toward the ground in the distance.
He knew he didn’t have much time left.
Once he left the Kunlun Mountains, no one would be able to stop Su Yuanshan.
That would mean abandoning all those who had come here prepared to die.
But if he didn’t go stop it, Kunlun City and the surrounding cities would suffer the same fate as the Southern Continent.
At that moment, the people of Kunlun City and the surrounding cities no longer had the heart to keep watching the live surveillance broadcast.
Su Yuanshan’s words had been clearly transmitted to people throughout the world by the cameras stationed along the cliffs.
Now, everyone was waiting for Chen Feng to make his choice.
Panic spread wildly throughout Kunlun City and several nearby cities.
Tens of millions of people grabbed their families and began fleeing in a frenzy.
But many others remained at home, staring tensely at their television screens.
Because they all knew there was no time left.
The time until the meteor struck was being counted in seconds.
At most, they had a dozen seconds. At least, only a few.
Let alone escaping Kunlun City—even getting out of their own neighborhoods would be difficult.
Especially since the streets were already completely gridlocked.
Everyone wanted to escape Kunlun City.
The enormous boulder in the sky had been forcibly compressed into existence by Su Yuanshan’s Star-Absorbing Art. It was as large as a mountain range.
Flames burned across its surface, illuminating Kunlun City’s night sky.
Chen Feng looked at the meteor descending toward Kunlun City.
Aside from himself, who else could withstand Su Yuanshan’s attack?
If he didn’t return, tens of millions of people in Kunlun City and the surrounding areas would perish.
Then he looked toward the second wave of volunteers who had charged into the Kunlun Mountains and were now locked in a bitter battle.
If he chose to save Kunlun City, Su Yuanshan would be completely unopposed—and he would undoubtedly slaughter all those volunteers.
How could Chen Feng abandon these hot-blooded heroes who were willing to sacrifice themselves to save others in a time of crisis?
These selfless people had refused to abandon the world when it mattered most.
And now they were supposed to face the fate of being abandoned themselves?
Chen Feng simply couldn’t do it.
Which side was he supposed to abandon?
Just as he was struggling to make a decision, an old man from the Southern Continent—already gravely wounded—collapsed to the ground.
Both of his legs had been brutally severed.
Summoning the last of his strength, he shouted in halting Daxia language:
“Hero of Great Xia! Don’t let the disaster of the Southern Continent happen again!”
The others also disregarded their own lives and cried out anxiously:
“Go stop that demon!”
“If the cities behind us are destroyed, then what meaning will all our sacrifices have?”
“Since we came here, we’ve never been afraid of death!”
“Go, Great Xia hero!”
……
Chen Feng’s eyes reddened once again.
He knew he had no time left to hesitate.
He threw back his head and let out a furious roar.
“I will definitely come back! We’ll fight to the very end!”
“You must hold on!”
The next moment, he transformed into lightning and appeared above Kunlun City.
The corners of Su Yuanshan’s mouth slowly curled upward.
Then he burst into laughter.
“I was almost moved by all of you!”
“Since your hero has chosen to abandon you…”
“Then I won’t hold back!”
One figure after another was sucked into the sky.
They were turned into corpses, then dropped back to the ground.
Su Yuanshan’s injuries rapidly healed once more.
The remaining survivors already knew what fate awaited them.
They turned their unwillingness into strength and began fighting with everything they had.
Against Su Yuanshan’s subordinates, they traded their lives for the lives of their enemies.
Since death was unavoidable, they might as well take as many of them with them as possible.
……
Above Kunlun City.
Chen Feng pushed his Indestructible Golden Body to its absolute limit.
He concentrated nearly all his qi and blood into the Indestructible Golden Body.
Then, using the Dragon God Technique, he charged toward the enormous boulder hurtling down from the sky.
He didn’t dare use sword energy.
Even if he cleaved the boulder apart, the fragments would still inflict devastating damage on the city below.
Chen Feng decided to meet force with force and shatter the boulder completely with his own body.
Only then could he protect the city as much as possible.
The crowds that had been packed into the streets also raised their heads at that moment.
They looked toward the young man wrapped in the phantom image of a dragon high above the city.
“It’s the Great Xia hero!”
“The Great Xia hero has come back to save us!”
“Daddy! Does that mean we don’t have to die? Will the Great Xia hero save me?”
“Chen Feng, keep going! You have to succeed!”
……
A tsunami of cheers erupted throughout Kunlun City.
Everyone raised their heads and stared nervously at the sky.
The next moment—
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
A tremendous explosion shook the entire city.
Every pane of glass in Kunlun City shattered.
The meteor had transformed into a massive fireball.
Countless tiny fragments of stone shot outward in all directions.
At that moment, everyone knew—
Chen Feng had succeeded!
Those fragments might injure many people, and some might even be killed by them.
But at the very least, they wouldn’t all die in an instant.
Just as the people began cheering, a charred figure fell from the sky together with the fragments of stone.
Someone quickly spotted the figure.
He immediately raised his hand and pointed at Chen Feng as he shouted:
“Quick, find a way to catch him!”
“That’s the Great Xia hero!”
Everyone immediately turned their eyes toward Chen Feng.
They all watched nervously as he plummeted toward the ground.
One person below hurriedly moved out of the way.
But the moment he left, several others rushed into his place.
“Are you crazy? Someone falling from that height could crush you to death!”
Those people roared back:
“Even if we get crushed to death, we can’t just watch our savior hit the ground!”
“He just saved my entire family!”
“You lot, move aside! Let this old man do it!”
“I’m a Martial Venerable. Let me catch the Great Xia hero!”
……
In the end, a group of people caught Chen Feng without incident.
But when they saw what Chen Feng looked like…
Everyone couldn't help but draw in a sharp breath.

No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
