Chapter 1 The End

This proud young man vanished inch by inch from the sight of the crowd, vanished from the lens of the toppled camera.

In the last moment of his demise, his back was still straight, his eyes were still unruly, and he used his life to carry out his beliefs.

At the cost of his life, he told the authorities a truth: when a common man is enraged, blood will splatter five steps away, and the world will be draped in mourning!

The courtroom was silent. The power of a demigod had dissipated. The rulers were still kneeling on the ground, and the Nine Elders remained frozen as if under a spell, unsure whether they were shocked or frightened.

The skewed video footage from the live broadcast recorded the chaotic courtroom, recorded the reactions of everyone present, and was bound to be recorded in the official annals as a scene that shook both the domestic and international Lingjing worlds.

The live broadcast room, watched by thousands, was silent.

Suddenly, a cry broke the silence. Guan Ya rushed over with disheveled hair, her right arm dragging where her shoulder bone had been broken in the hurricane.

She ran to Yuanshi Tianzun, reached out her left hand, trying to grab back the scattered ashes, trying to salvage something, but again and again she failed.

She collapsed to the ground, hung her head, and her shoulders trembled.

Sun Miaomiao also ran over, her face pale and her eyes filled with thick, sticky black energy. She looked around anxiously.

Suddenly, she burst into tears, wailing, "There's no spiritual body anymore, no spiritual body! Wuwu, without a spiritual body, you can't be turned into a spirit servant after death."

This was a true annihilation of both body and soul.

October 1, 2022, Yuanshi Tianzun returned to the Lingjing!

Listening to the cries from the scene, someone finally tentatively sent a message in the silent live broadcast comment section.

"Was Yuanshi Tianzun wronged?"

"He colluded with evil professions to kill elders, the evidence is conclusive. So many elders and the Ten Elders were there, are they blind?"

"The evidence is indeed conclusive, but if what Yuanshi Tianzun said just now was true, then think about it, wasn't he wronged?"

Someone else said.

"What evidence do you have?" But some people remained skeptical.

"No evidence, but everyone saw what happened just now. If Yuanshi Tianzun was truly heinous, why did he only kill Elder Cai and the elders who participated in the hunt that night? He could have killed everyone present."

"Oh my god, if Yuanshi Tianzun was forced to his death, this will be an indelible shame for the Five Elements Alliance, a huge scandal."

The live broadcast room fell silent again.

A genius with the potential to become an alliance leader, a strong person who made the evil professions nervous, a hero who made great contributions to the official side, did not die in the confrontation between camps, but instead perished in the internal strife of the official side.

Today's events will make the Five Elements Alliance a laughing stock and inflict a devastating blow to the official reputation.

This trial and the credibility of the Ten Elders, no, the Nine Elders, were completely lost.

"Sigh!"

With a low sigh, a poodle walked into the frame. It stood where Yuanshi Tianzun had disappeared, its expression sad and somewhat disheartened. It looked at the Nine Elders and said, "Yuanshi Tianzun is unruly and arrogant, you don't like him, I understand. He is indeed close to the members of the Wuchen Hotel, but he is so hateful of evil. If those evil professions were truly heinous, Yuanshi Tianzun would have acted on behalf of justice long ago without the need for the investigation department to take action."

The Dog Elder glanced at the scorched earth where Elder Cai had died, and suddenly raised his voice, "He did kill Nutao Wuqing, but what exactly happened, the nine of you old guys know better than anyone else. Cai Qinhe was imitating Dark Night Rose and the Southern School, setting up a trap to lure and kill Yuanshi Tianzun! You all know, but you don't care about Yuanshi Tianzun, that's right, arrogance is your original sin."

"I joined the Xiaobai Hua Club half a century ago. There was no Five Elements Alliance at that time. The world was very chaotic. Everyone never asked about background. Whoever killed more evil professions was the big brother, who could be respected. Everyone was very pure."

"Why were you ten old guys able to enter the headquarters? Wasn't it because of the support of us old brothers? But what we supported was the big brother who fought bloody battles against evil professions, not the Ten Elders who are busy with petty gains all day long. After the Five Elements Alliance was established, you all changed, gradually putting interests first, busy with infighting, fighting for power, and only caring about your own little territory."

The Dog Elder smiled bitterly, "You want to kill Yuanshi Tianzun, you want to plunder his items, I can't stop you. From beginning to end, I only dared to bark wildly. I've been a dog for too many years, I almost forgot that I'm still a person. I quit the Five Elements Alliance, I'm not a dog anymore." He silently turned his head and walked away dejectedly.

"I quit the Five Elements Alliance," Elder Huangsha Baizhan left silently.

"I'm quitting too, bullshit!" Elder Tianhuo cursed and followed.

At this time, another elder walked out, Elder Gaofeng from the Hangzhou branch. He walked straight out without saying a word.

"I'm leaving too, it's meaningless, very meaningless." This was the leader of the Hangzhou branch, his face turning gloomy. "I quit the Five Elements Alliance!"

"I quit!" From the audience, an unexpected person - Huang Taiji! The grandson of Grand Elder Dihong.

This mountain god's expression was solemn, his eyes contained deep sorrow. After saying his declaration, he quickly got up and strode out of the courtroom.

Tianxia Guihu took a deep breath, "I quit the Five Elements Alliance."

Born from humble beginnings, desperately wanting to make a name for himself, the shame of fire masters, after witnessing the death of Yuanshi Tianzun, suddenly felt an unspeakable sadness and disillusionment with the Five Elements Alliance.

"I quit the Five Elements Alliance." Xia Shuzhi Lian, a senior executive of the Hangzhou branch, followed her old leader with red eyes, without the slightest forgiveness.

Lingjun walked out with a numb expression, not looking at his grandfather, "I quit the Five Elements Alliance."

"I quit the Five Elements Alliance."

"I quit the Five Elements Alliance."

Then more than a dozen executives silently left here.

Some were familiar with Yuanshi Tianzun, some were purely out of righteous indignation. As senior executives, they had already guessed the truth to some extent.

Despite this, these were still a minority among the audience.

[Wang Xiaoer: I quit the Five Elements Alliance.]

[Liangshan Water Master: I quit the Five Elements Alliance.]

[Xuehai Wuya, I quit the Five Elements Alliance.]

The group of official Xingzhe from the Nanming branch who were suspended from their homes all announced their withdrawal from the Five Elements Alliance.

[Baihu Wansui: I'm leaving, I quit the Five Elements Alliance, I'm not doing it anymore.]

[Mudan Xianzi: I quit the Five Elements Alliance!],

[Niulanshan Xiaoshan Nv: Quit!]

[Guo He Zu: Quit]

[Tou Bao Pei Jiu Yue He Yue You: Alas, I quit too, Tianzun Lord has returned to the Lingjing, it's meaningless]

[Wang Fei, quit, I'll write my resignation report now.]

[Li Dongze: I quit the Five Elements Alliance too]

[Qingteng: It's better to return.]

Those who were promoted to saints in the killing副本, those members of Songhai, those grassroots Xingzhe who admired Yuanshi Tianzun but could not speak out in the overwhelming public opinion, those suppressed voices finally broke out at this moment, and more and more people shouted "Quit the Five Elements Alliance."

Those who were manipulated by Secretary Zhou's public opinion began to be betrayed. Since the establishment of the Five Elements Alliance, there had never been such a large-scale retreat, nor such a serious crisis of trust.

Taiyi Gate.

In the courtyard house, the Grand Elder Chiri Xingguan, sitting silently behind his desk watching the live broadcast, shook his head slightly. As the Grand Elder of the Taiyi Gate, he knew very well what the Ten Elders of the Five Elements Alliance were thinking.

After learning that Yuanshi Tianzun had killed the elder, the ten old guys of the Five Elements Alliance knew that it was impossible to tame Yuanshi Tianzun anymore, and even became wary of his character.

So they went along with the tide, gave up on this character, and chose to receive his props, such as the Jitian Suit that the headquarters of the Five Elements Alliance had been eyeing for a long time.

But the situation was out of control. No one thought that Yuanshi Tianzun could exchange for the power of a demigod, and not just one.

The nine old guys watched Cai Qinhe return to the Lingjing with their own eyes, probably panicking. Now, although Yuanshi Tianzun did not kill them all, he also made the Nine Elders lose face and lost all their prestige through this incident.

They tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice, and also lost a genius. It was a pity for this genius. If he had joined the Taiyi Gate in the first place, everyone would have held him in their palms.

While Chiri Xingguan was sighing, he heard a faint and loud voice in his ear.

Taiyin returns to the Lingjing!

Ling Tuo succeeded.

Taiyin returns to the Lingjing? Chiri Xingguan was stunned, and then his face changed suddenly. He stared at the screen, staring at the place where Yuanshi Tianzun turned into ashes. It turned out that what Yuanshi Tianzun exchanged was the origin of Taiyin. He was the successor of the Demon Lord.

Pangxie City.

A rented house in the outer city.

Xiao Yuan's phone received a message from that mysterious powerhouse.

"Set up an altar and pray to Wangshi Wuhen."

Xiao Yuan suddenly got up, walked out of the room and into the living room.

There was a blue table covered with bright yellow silk, and on the table were incense, paper talismans, copper coins, a porcelain bowl, and grass.

Xiao Yuan lit two bright red candles and lit the purple incense.

Then she cut open her wrist and let her blood, rich in the psychic's spiritual power, drip into the porcelain bowl and merge with the black liquid in the bowl. Then she picked up a pen and wrote "Wangshi Wuhen" and his birth date on a blank yellow paper.

Then she took out a beautifully patterned jade pendant. After doing all this, she placed it under the scarecrow.

Xiao Yuan formed a hand seal, closed her eyes, and chanted incantations along with the psychic's curse. The paper talisman with "Wangshi Wuhen" and his birth date burned to ashes.

The jade pendant absorbed the spiritual power of the scarecrow, and with a click, it shattered in front of Xiao Yuan, projecting a circular space tunnel.

The tunnel was dark and deep, connecting to the unknown.
