Celestial Refining Divine Scripture-Chapter 331 - 329: Song’s Betrayal

Boom!

Over a hundred Daqian Martial Artists looked on in despair as Tuoba Dajiang's fully-charged fist smashed toward the avatar!

In that fleeting instant, Xu Yang's pupils contracted, and an overwhelming joy surged forth.

Dead!

Tu Xiong is dead!

"No wonder you're my teacher!"

Xu Yang clenched his fists in excitement.

And at that very moment, Yang Ziye and Tuoba Dajiang also sensed the commotion.

"We won!"

"We actually won!"

Yang Ziye leapt up in delight, dancing ecstatically.

Tuoba Dajiang's entire body trembled, his massive fist suspended less than a foot from the avatar!

The terrifying punch stopped abruptly, yet the residual force still sent the avatar flying violently.

His eyes widened, filled with incredulity and disbelief.

"How is this possible?"

"Who did this? Xu Yang was clearly right here..."

Such an outcome was unacceptable to him!

"Tuoba Dajiang, you lost!" Xu Yang laughed heartily.

At this moment, every effort had been worth it.

"We won? We really won, hahahaha!!"

"Xu Yang, you're incredible."

From within the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod, Yie Vajra burst out in uproarious laughter: "Let me out, Xu Yang, hurry and let me out."

Swish!

The Celestial Refining Divine Tripod vanished into thin air.

Yie Vajra tumbled to the ground, pressing his hands to the earth, lifting his head to scream with crazed excitement at Tuoba Dajiang.

In the end, he didn't even care as blood spurted from his mouth!

For all the Martial Artists of Daqian, this was an utter carnival!

A miracle!

An unprecedented miracle!

"Xu Yang!"

Tuoba Dajiang gnashed his teeth, abruptly disappearing on the spot, charging at Xu Yang's avatar!

"I'll destroy your external avatar!"

Xu Yang's expression changed.

At that moment—

A solemn voice descended from the heavens.

"Battle is over!"

"Daqian is victorious!"

As Zheng Xuan's cold voice fell, the world froze in an instant!

The boundless Realm of the Setting Sun thoroughly came to a standstill at that very moment!

Tuoba Dajiang's figure froze mid-charge, unable to move an inch!

Everyone felt themselves trapped as if imprisoned.

Whoosh!

Mysterious light surged, winds and clouds shifting tumultuously.

The boundary lines between regions disappeared, the mysterious radiance rising and gathering above the setting sun.

An invisible and wondrous convergence seemed to occur; before everyone's eyes, one segment of the sun was swiftly restored!

Yet the crowd paid this no heed, instead staring fixedly in one direction.

There, a figure stood in midair!

Song Yuanhao!

"It really is Song Yuanhao!"

"Is he insane?"

"He actually betrayed Daqian—what is he planning?"

"Or... was he from the Barbarian Race all along?"

...

The crowd was utterly shocked, guesses flying, but all were overwhelmed with boundless rage!

Everyone else was fighting desperately, risking death in the struggle!

Yet someone would betray Daqian, betray humanity?

He deserves a thousand deaths!

Buzz!

The invisible bindings slowly dissipated.

Xu Yang stared at Song Yuanhao, a flash of shock in his eyes.

He instinctively sensed this was not the end—something even more earth-shattering was yet to come.

"Barbarians—what a bunch of trash!"

Song Yuanhao's expression was sinister as he spat the insult without mercy.

His opponent was Ning Wuyang!

Ning Wuyang was in a sorry state, drenched in blood, utterly miserable!

The difference in strength was clear!

But he still stood his ground against Song Yuanhao! 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Though Song Yuanhao was a bit stronger, it was no easy feat for him to kill Ning Wuyang.

Meanwhile, Huangfu Qing was up against Tuoba Hongyu!

Huangfu Qing clearly held the upper hand.

Even so, Tuoba Hongyu was no pushover.

The spiritual object infused in her bloodline compared favorably to Huangfu Qing's Asura Blood Book.

"We actually lost..." Tuoba Hongyu muttered, dazed.

This was not what she had expected.

From afar, seeing Xu Yang, Tuoba Dajiang, Yie Vajra and others, Tuoba Hongyu's eyes narrowed, teeth clenched, her gaze burning with fury: "Him again!"

Anyone with half a brain could guess—in the most critical moment, Xu Yang must have turned the tide yet again!

"Song Yuanhao, you actually betrayed Daqian!"

Huangfu Qing snapped out of his shock and, seeing Song Yuanhao, roared in horror and rage.

Song Yuanhao smirked lightly: "Betrayed Daqian?"

"Hmph, does Daqian even deserve it?"

"Today is the day the world's entire order changes!"

"Zheng Xuan, what are you waiting for?"

Song Yuanhao suddenly looked up at the sky and sneered coldly.

At these words, chills ran down everyone's spines!

What does he mean?

The world order changing?

And he dares call King Beixuan directly by name?

Even Xu Yang was deeply shocked.

"Song Yuanhao, so it was you all along!"

"For you to reveal yourself so soon, you must all be fully prepared."

Zheng Xuan slowly appeared, overlooking Song Yuanhao, a cold and indifferent look in his eyes.

Song Yuanhao grinned: "I'm quite looking forward to seeing whether the Son of Heaven will show up today!"

Gulp!

The crowd was dumbfounded; they understood every word, but together they made no sense at all!

The Son of Heaven?

"Just what kind of person is Song Yuanhao?"

By now, even a fool could see that this was far more than a simple betrayal of Daqian.

"Heh..."

Zheng Xuan smiled faintly, not answering Song Yuanhao, but slowly raised his fist, thrusting it toward the newly restored sun above!

In the next moment, his five fingers suddenly splayed, gripping fiercely in the air!

"Celestial Profound Setting Sun—Battle Saint Sun!"

"Open!"

Rumble!

The heavens and earth split; profound radiance surged and boiled, transforming into a divine golden robe that clothed Zheng Xuan!

The sun blazed with brilliance above Zheng Xuan, bathing him in radiance so divine he seemed a god stepping out of the sun itself!

Rumble!

The Realm of the Setting Sun crumbled completely, countless shards of mysterious light raining down from the firmament, burying the Northern Territory.

Everyone was suddenly transported to the wild borderlands of the Northern Territory.

Zheng Xuan stood tall, his curved palm grabbing the sun itself, as he roared coldly: "Barbarian scum, all of you, get out here!"

"Zheng Xuan, you have some nerve!"

"I want to see who gave you the confidence to challenge our Barbarian Race alone?"

"Kill!"

Furious shouts thundered forth, shaking the heavens and earth!

The vast mountains and towering peaks quaked beneath those roars, nearly collapsing!

One after another, Barbarian powerhouses soared from all directions, wrapped in terrifying storms, shaking the very fabric of the world, making the heavens sway and the earth tremble!

The entire Northern Territory had become a fearsome battlefield!

Countless Martial Artists trembled in fear.

"War is about to break out!"

"My god, those are all True Kings!"

"King Beixuan actually wants to challenge six Barbarian True Kings by himself, hiss!"

"Damn it, where are our Daqian True Kings? Why is there only King Beixuan?"

"Didn't we win the battle? How come the Barbarians haven't paid any price?"

...

The crowd exclaimed in shock and confusion, anger rising...

"It's got something to do with that setting sun!"

Xu Yang murmured under his breath.

He could vaguely sense that Zheng Xuan's courage to face the many Barbarian True Kings alone stemmed from the newly restored sun after Daqian's victory in the Celestial Profound Sunset Battle Chess!

If Daqian won, there must be some benefit!

"Teacher, did you see anything?" Xu Yang quietly asked as he took the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant from Liou Yunfeng.

"Terrifying!"

Gu Jun's voice was especially weak.

Xu Yang's expression shifted: "Teacher, you..."

"It's nothing, just too much energy spent."

Gu Jun was unconcerned—he was on the verge of falling asleep and could hold on no longer.

But if Zheng Xuan kept his promise, he'd recover quickly!

"This so-called Celestial Profound Sunset Battle Chess is truly extraordinary—it manipulates heaven and earth, almost like a law itself!"

Law?

Xu Yang pondered deeply!

"Whoever wins gets to restore the setting sun!"

"If the Barbarians win, the setting sun benefits the Barbarians!"

"If Daqian wins, it aids Daqian—representing the suppression of law!"

"True Kings tread the fabric of heaven and earth, wielding unmatched might, but they're more attuned and sensitive to power akin to the very laws of the world!"
