Chapter 1407: According to Plan
Luan Kong closed his eyes, but took out a massive flying boat, allowing the Demon Clan to proceed smoothly to the bottom of the Heavenly Cutting Abyss.
"Great Saint, what’s beneath the Heavenly Cutting Abyss?" A fledgling Luan bird suddenly approached Luan Kong, asking in a tender voice.
Luan Kong slightly opened his eyes, seeing the little fellow in front of him, recalling how this little one always clung to him, as if full of endless questions in ordinary days.
But now, the little one is going to the Heavenly Cutting Abyss as well.
"I don’t know. Some say there’s a wasteland below, others say it’s a dead end, but those who ventured down there never returned."
The little Luan bird suddenly smiled: "Then I’ll go take a look, and when I return, I’ll tell the Great Saint what’s really down there."
His words softened Luan Kong’s heart; even Jiang Wuyue and others felt a pang of reluctance.
Yet this concerns the matters of two species. If they lose this battle, the Human Clan is likely to suffer even more, so everyone hardened their hearts.
One by one, demons boarded the flying boat, unsure of what fate awaited them, their eyes filled with confusion and fear.
The flying boat arrived above the Heavenly Cutting Abyss, and looking down, there was endless desolation and solitude, as though they had reached the world’s end, feeling as if abandoned by it.
Ao Hao dragged his heavily injured body onto the flying boat, turning to look at Luan Kong, his gaze complex, containing both gratitude and hatred.
"I am a Great Saint of the Demon Clan; I shall lead the Demon Clan to survival!"
The voice echoed in the Heavenly Cutting Abyss, like a promise deeply imprinted here.
The flying boat changed direction, a faint light rising from its surface to resist the cold winds and gang qi within the Heavenly Cutting Abyss, then plunged resolutely into it.
Luan Kong immediately stepped forward, quickly performing sealing techniques, while his form swiftly shrank.
On his originally handsome face, wrinkles started to grow, skin became withered, eyes turned cloudy, the once beautiful exterior soon appeared elderly and decrepit.
Yet in his hands, a disk formed by the Space Law grew ever brighter, emitting a chilling aura like a bright moon.
Luan Kong gently pushed forward, the disk flew above the Heavenly Cutting Abyss, then rapidly expanded like a giant net, preparing to envelop the entire abyss.
Everyone knew that once this net descended, even if demons could return from the Heavenly Cutting Abyss, it would be impossible to break the seal unless their cultivation surpassed Luan Kong.
But at this moment, no one anticipated Chen Nan, who had always been compliant, transforming into a beam of light, rushing into the Heavenly Cutting Abyss with his fastest speed before the net descended!
"Chen Nan!" Tu Susu reached out her hands, but it was already too late, her pupils trembling violently.
The Nascent Soul Realm cultivators who desired Chen Nan were dumbfounded, wanting to bring Chen Nan back, but the sealing net had already descended, leaving them with no opportunity.
"Damn it! Do you think you can escape this way? It’s Demon Clan down there, they won’t spare you either!"
Chen Nan smiled at them, revealing his ghastly white teeth, determination flashing in his eyes.
"Ha, even in death, I won’t let you benefit."
With those words, a surge of violent power erupted within him, twisting his expression painfully.
"No, don’t!"
Seeing this, Tu Susu recklessly attempted to rush into the Heavenly Cutting Abyss but was firmly restrained by Tu Wanshan.
Under the stunned gazes of everyone, Chen Nan’s body exploded with a "boom."
He actually self-destructed in front of everyone!
Several Nascent Soul Realm cultivators cursed loudly: "Little bastard, rather die than let us have it, really despicable!"
"Bastard! It’s such a waste!"
Watching the hope that could elevate them to the Nascent Soul Realm vanish before their eyes was more painful than death.
No one could foresee Chen Nan making such a choice, resulting in mutual destruction.
Yet aside from sighs and curses, they could do nothing, and none dared rush into the Heavenly Cutting Abyss now, for Luan Kong’s seal had finally descended, covering it completely.
After releasing the seal, Luan Kong indeed looked old enough to die, perhaps revealing his true self.
"Now, can you feel assured?"
Jiang Wuyue and Tu Wanshan didn’t speak but focused on him instead.
"Ha, you are indeed cautious." Luan Kong shook his head helplessly: "Don’t worry, I’m truly dying, you don’t need to be concerned about me."
"Hurry and leave, once I die, the space channel will close, and you’ll not be able to return even if you wanted."
Human Clan cultivators swiftly passed through the space channel, leaving the Heavenly Cutting Abyss, Jiang Wuyue and Tu Wanshan were the last to return.
Passing through the space channel, they saw Luan Kong standing silently in the sky, his body gradually dissipating until completely vanished, the space channel closing along.
This former Great Saint of the Demon Clan willingly faced death to preserve the demon lineage.
Tu Susu was so grief-stricken she almost fainted, her state causing many Nascent Soul Realm cultivators to shake their heads and sigh, regretting the absence of a great prize.
Just as they hadn’t yet recovered from Chen Nan’s death, Demon Sect cultivators suddenly launched attacks against Righteous Alliance cultivators, as if they had coordinated their moves, striking simultaneously.
Master Canglan sneered as he twisted off the head of a Righteous Alliance cultivator, blood splattering on his face, making him look like a demon.
"Hahaha, all of you die!"
Tu Wanshan’s expression remained calm, while Jiang Wuyue glared at him with venomous eyes: "Was this part of your plan all along?"
"You not only want to eliminate the Demon Clan but also the Righteous Alliance?"
Tu Wanshan nodded slowly: "Indeed, from now on, only the Demon Sect speaks for East Sea, blame yourselves for being too naive to think we’d cooperate obediently with you?"
"Shameless!"
Jiang Wuyue burned with rage, tasting betrayal he had never experienced before, threefold today! First Master Canglan, then Chen Nan, and finally the Demon Sect, all in succession.
"Death, I want you all dead!"
He was utterly deranged, directly summoning his Treasure Tower Spiritual Artifact, forcefully suppressing the cultivators below, heedless of whether they belonged to the Righteous Alliance or Demon Sect.
Tu Wanshan noticed his state, a slight smile on his lips, everything proceeding according to his plan.
First eliminate the Demon Clan, then the Righteous Alliance!
The only pity was that his daughter seemed genuinely overwhelmed, exiting the battlefield.
"Alas, daughter, I’ll find you someone better in the future."
