489: gather

In the subsequent battle, Chen De easily disposed of Fairy Xian Qing.

After devouring her, the Attribute Points gained by Chen De were pitifully few, a mere 2.4.

Back when he devoured Positive Separation's Inner World, Chen De only obtained a measly 2.1 Attribute Points.

This was because Positive Separation had utterly ruined his own Inner World before death, leaving behind nothing but an empty shell.

At that time, Chen De only absorbed Positive Separation's Inner World, failing to absorb the accumulated foundation within it.

However, Fairy Xian Qing clearly did not have the same opportunity as Positive Separation did before Chen De.

She wished she could, but unfortunately, she lacked the capability.

From the moment Chen De's black liquid entered her body, she lost the ability to choose to destroy her own Inner World.

Afterwards, Chen De projected several massive screens, broadcasting the battle scenes across various locations in the skies above Qianqiu Continent.

In particular, the image of Fairy Xian Qing, disrobed and completely naked, was deeply imprinted in everyone's minds.

After all, this was a female immortal! Even many in the Immortal Law Realm wouldn't have the privilege to see such a sight.

Some quick-witted disciples of Qianqiu Palace and Zhengyuan Sect had already quietly taken out recording devices to capture it.

The palace master's heroic bearing, whether clothed or unclothed, stirred them so...

Countless youths had fantasized about their sect master countless times in the depths of night.

High position, aloof from men, dignified and stern, immensely powerful, peerlessly beautiful...

All these elements combined undoubtedly ignited the primal desires of most people.

Especially that sense of conquest and the stark contrast, it was simply unparalleled.

As for Chen De, his anger... he had never managed to make Fairy Xian Qing truly understand the price of defaming the righteous path of heaven and earth.

And so, he personally took action to produce a film for her, planning to distribute and disseminate it through the channels of the Moyuan Sect.

Of course, the video would definitely be edited, as Chen De's black liquid could not be exposed.

Chen De believed that with the channels of the Moyuan Sect, this product was bound to be a huge hit.

When the time came, it wouldn't be a bad idea to offer it as a specialty export from the Xichen Domain.

This was Chen De, constantly thinking about the livelihood of the Zhengyuan Sect, and even all living beings under heaven.

Even though he hadn't yet secured the Xichen Domain, he had already begun making plans for the beings within it.

As the saying goes, the love of parents for their children plans for their long-term future.

Chen De was the Holy Mother, the Supreme Holy Mother. His love far surpassed that of parents.

It was great love, true great love, also far exceeding all lesser loves.

Accompanied by a shrill, miserable scream, Chen De, having completed the soul refinement, used his Influence to subdue Fairy Xian Qing's soul.

Normally, those in the Immortal Law Realm wouldn't undergo this procedure, but Fairy Xian Qing was simply too wicked.

Therefore, Chen De's great love needed to be apportioned to her more generously to fill the void left by this evil.

Those who are loved are always fearless, and those who are loved also always enjoy many privileges.

Having received more of this great love, Fairy Xian Qing naturally also enjoyed privileges here with Chen De.

He added all the newly acquired 2.4 Attribute Points, not a single one remaining, into his attack, bringing it to 5.9.

Thus, Chen De's offensive capabilities also reached the standard mid-level of the Immortal Law Realm First Transformation.

With the Blessing of his inherent bloodline and talents, Chen De's current combat power had steadily reached the peak level of the Immortal Law Realm First Transformation.

However, after witnessing the formidable strength of the Grand Elder, he understood that his current power was still far from sufficient to contend with him.

After eliminating Fairy Xian Qing, the surrounding scene underwent a series of changes.

The most obvious was the Qianqiu Continent, which had appeared like a ruined, broken wasteland.

Yet now, it was presented before Chen De's eyes intact and undamaged, still with clear waters and green mountains.

Chen De had said that what he brought was not slaughter, but liberation.

He only executed the chief villain, because doing this was enough.

For these disciples who had been deluded and kept in ignorance, he came with intentions of friendliness, Influence, and guidance.

Killing Fairy Xian Qing was also done out of helplessness; his original intention had never been to harm any living being.

Just like how Chen De's hands had never been stained with a single drop of innocent blood.

If possible, he would rather kill no one, would rather only he himself should die.

However, there are no 'ifs' in this world, and Chen De could only silently endure and forge ahead with determination.

As for the Qianqiu Palace disciples below, after watching the complete film with lingering fascination, their expressions instantly turned serious.

They all drew their hands, gripping their weapons, and shouted at the Zhengyuan Sect disciples, 'You invaders, how dare you trespass into the territory of our Qianqiu Palace!'

'If we hadn't been too busy just now to free our hands, we would have chopped you into seventeen or eighteen pieces long ago.'

'Now that we have our hands free, you should also... damn it, my hands are sticky, holding a weapon is so uncomfortable.'

A Zhengyuan Sect disciple shouted loudly, 'Your palace master is already dead. I ask you now, will you surrender or not?'

All the Qianqiu Palace disciples and elders, as if full of backbone, shouted in unison, 'We will not surrender!'

Seeing they were oddly full of backbone, the Zhengyuan Sect disciples and elders wanted to simply kill them.

But remembering their sect master's benevolent governance, they felt they should give these guys one chance, just go through the motions.

After all, they had already urged surrender twice. If the other side still wouldn't surrender, they were clearly obstinate and intent on putting up a desperate resistance.

As for whether the other side would agree this second time, need it even be said?

The Zhengyuan Sect side believed, given how much backbone the other side had just shown,

that even if they urged surrender three more times, five times, ten times, or even a hundred times, they probably still wouldn't surrender.

So in the view of the Zhengyuan Sect, this was merely going through the motions, just to save face for the sect master.

And so, this time, it was a Zhengyuan Sect elder who spoke up, 'People of Qianqiu Palace, listen! Your palace master was an evil of the Xichen Domain, daring to secretly refine demonic beings.

'Fortunately, our sect discovered it in time, thus averting a catastrophe.'

'Now, the chief villain, Xian Qing, has been executed, beaten to utter nothingness by our righteous Zhengyuan Sect master.'

'Now, I ask you once more, will you surrender?'

However, the response to the Zhengyuan Sect crowd this time was still that same resolute, fierce, and unified shout, 'We surrender!'

Hearing this, the Zhengyuan Sect elder revealed a smile that said 'just as expected,' and then said, 'Very well, since you vow to fight to the death and not surrender, we need not hold back. Disciples, heed my ord... Wait, what did you say? Surrender?'

Such a stark contrast left him unable to process it for a moment.

Zhengyuan Sect Elder: ...

Zhengyuan Sect Disciples: ...

Chen De: ...

That Zhengyuan Sect elder swallowed hard, unable to resist saying, 'You... wouldn't you like to reconsider?'

The response to him was still that full-throated, unified shout, 'We surrender!'
