The God - Lord stared at her with a changeable expression for a long time before finally letting go of his hand. He said haughtily, "If you can set up this formation, I'll surely reward you. But if you can't..."
He drew his sword, with a palpable killing intent.
Xu Ruanruan said angrily, "Why do you always resort to violence? Judging from your attitude, even if I succeed, you'll probably still want to kill me. Humph, I won't help you anymore!"
The God - Lord glared at her. "How dare you!"
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Xu Ruanruan said defiantly, sticking out her neck. "I'm telling you, there might be no one else in the world who can set up this Rebirth Formation except me. I have my own pride. If you want to kill me, just do it!"
The God - Lord was greatly shocked. "How do you know this is the Rebirth Formation?"
Xu Ruanruan gave a soft snort and said nothing.
Outside Kongyue Mountain, Yaohua and the others had locked onto Xu Ruanruan's position. After finding that she was beside the God - Lord, they were extremely anxious. "What should we do? The God - Lord has gone crazy. He probably won't spare her."
At this moment, Yaohua suddenly felt a strange movement in space. She quickly took out a bookmark. Xu Ruanruan had given it to her before. She had always thought it was just a small gift and had never touched it since. But today, it was buzzing.
Xu Ruanruan's voice came from the bookmark. "I seem to have met the God - Lord. He asked me to help him set up a formation. I'm going to set up a teleportation formation using this leaf as a medium while setting up the formation. You guys get ready to pick me up."
After hearing Xu Ruanruan's plan, Yaohua was silent for a moment. "The God - Lord... didn't do anything to you?"
Xu Ruanruan laughed. "He knows nothing about formations. He's easy to deceive. He has a lot of rare treasures, even the Soil of Nurturing! The formation will be set up in another quarter of an hour."
Yaohua always felt a bit uneasy. "Don't be in a hurry. The God - Lord..."
But there was no more sound from the leaf.
A quarter of an hour later, Xu Ruanruan clapped her hands and glanced at the God - Lord in the distance imperceptibly. She activated the teleportation formation.
The light of the formation shone. Even the stupidest person like the God - Lord could sense that something was wrong. His eyes widened. "Bitch, how dare you deceive me?"
Xu Ruanruan scoffed. "Only a fool would side with someone like you. Now that the formation has been activated, you can't catch up with me. You'd better run away first. After all, the army is waiting outside!"
As expected, the God - Lord should have been in a hurry to escape, and she should have been able to get away safely. But at this moment, the God - Lord rushed over like a madman. His body actually passed through the void where the formation was and appeared in front of Xu Ruanruan.
Xu Ruanruan was greatly shocked. "You... What kind of demon are you? You can break the formation—"
Before she could finish her words, they both appeared in front of Yaohua.
Chongming quickly stepped in front of the others. He pushed out his spiritual power, and the God - Lord was shaken back a few steps. The sword in his hand glowed brightly, but what emitted was a black blood - light!
He hacked down heavily. At the same time, his figure appeared around Yaohua. But unexpectedly, Chongming had anticipated his move and directly protected Yaohua.
The black blood - light slashed down, causing a series of explosions. Just as the God - Lord was about to strike again, he heard Chongming sneer. "Look, what's that!"
He looked back suddenly and was shocked to find that the Soil of Nurturing had been cut into pieces by his sword light. He was both shocked and angry. "You're crazy. To deal with me, you actually sacrificed such a precious treasure as the Soil of Nurturing."
"Do you think everyone is like you?" Xu Ruanruan covered her neck, still in shock, and murmured softly. "It's just a few lumps of soil."
Chongming said calmly, "The Soil of Nurturing is essential in the Rebirth Formation. Now that it has disappeared, Tu Yang can never be resurrected again. You'd better give up this idea."
The God - Lord's beautiful dream was shattered. His eyes were almost filled with blood. "It's all your fault. Otherwise, how could Tu Yang have died? Now you don't even want to give her a chance of rebirth."
"If she knew that you were harming the living beings in order to resurrect her, she would surely choose to kill you and then commit suicide." Yaohua said coldly and disdainfully.
Tu Yang was a pure fairy. During her lifetime, the God - Lord never respected her wishes. After her death, he even delusionally wanted to resurrect her in a bloody way. It was extremely absurd.
The God - Lord couldn't stand this kind of stimulation. He let out a loud shout, and black shadows suddenly emanated from his body. Each shadow looked like him and attacked the others.
Yaohua instinctively released the True Fire of the Phoenix. But suddenly, her hand was empty. Xu Ruanruan had been snatched away!
"Let Miss Xu go quickly!" she shouted angrily.
But it was too late. The God - Lord pinched Xu Ruanruan's neck ferociously. "The bitch who betrayed me deserves to die."
Xu Ruanruan's body fell heavily to the ground. Her eyes were wide open, as if she couldn't believe that she would die so easily.
At the same time, the God - Lord's body was also hit by Chongming. His body exploded in the air, creating a violent spiritual energy wave.
Xu Ruanruan's white figure turned into dust in the explosion wave and disappeared without a trace.
After the loud explosion, everything seemed to have never happened. Only the destroyed flat ground proved what had happened here.
Seeing the heavy atmosphere, the God - Lord Wenhua showed compassion in his eyes. "Miss Xu sacrificed herself for the world. Although her body is gone, we can build a cenotaph for her so that her reincarnation will be smoother."
Xu Ruanruan's death made everyone feel sad. But now was not the time to be sad. More importantly, they needed to regroup and protect the safety of the Three Realms.
The appearance of Gu Songyue gave everyone hope.
He walked over slowly, with a rare look of joy on his face. "Why do you all look like this? The God - Lord is dead. We should celebrate. As for Miss Xu, she has a better destination!"
Everyone was puzzled. "What better destination?"
Chongming seemed to have thought of something. He calculated with his fingers and his eyes lit up. "The new god is about to ascend!"
Yaohua couldn't believe it. "Do you mean that Miss Xu is the new god?"
Oh my god, this couldn't be true, could it?
But at this moment, the scattered Soil of Nurturing between heaven and earth slowly gathered together. In a whirlpool of spiritual power, before long, Xu Ruanruan appeared with the Godhead on her head.
At this moment, her clothes fluttered in the wind. Her eyebrows and eyes were less playful and more steady and gentle, with a kind of divinity that seemed to save the world. Although it was the same face, it was now extremely charming.
Gu Songyue smiled slightly. "The new god's ascension requires a few days of buffer time to reshape the body. I'll guard during these days. You guys go do your own things!"
Everyone showed joy and nodded one after another.
With the death of the God - Lord, the evil creatures had nowhere to hide. Yaohua wanted to eliminate them during these days. But unexpectedly, after they escaped, they thrived by taking advantage of the epidemic. For the time being, they couldn't be eliminated.
