256: Chapter 256: The Ending (Part 3)

The next second, her expression changed suddenly, and her entire aura shifted violently.

Red threads appeared, encircling Qian Ye.

They shot directly toward Thousand Nights, leaving no gaps, attacking frantically.

"Damn it."

"Are you sick? You just start attacking without a word." Thousand Nights defended passively.

Qian Ye chuckled, "I have to say, sometimes you are quite cute."

Looking at her curious expression, Qian Ye changed the subject, "Cute in a stupid way."

Truly naive.

Qian Ye stopped her attack, her body suspended in mid-air. She pressed her palms together, closed her eyes, and began to chant.

A red light formed a protective barrier, enveloping her. Thousand Nights attacked her, but everything was blocked on the outside.

"What is going on?" She stared at herself suspiciously.

Why? Why?

She had absorbed so much power, why was she still no match for her?

Damn it.

"Damn it." Black mist appeared once again.

It morphed into a giant umbrella, surrounded by a ring of black mist.

If Qian Ye opened her eyes, she would realize that this umbrella was the hong ling umbrella, only the color had turned dark red, and it was larger.

"This is what I have always prepared for you."

"Go." The giant umbrella crashed into the protective barrier.

With a "bang" sound, accompanied by a "crack," the protective barrier was actually cracked by the impact.

Seeing this, the red umbrella struck even more violently.

Finally, the protective barrier could not hold and shattered completely. At the same time, Qian Ye opened her eyes.

"Collect." Instantly, a red light flew out from every layer, and that red light hovered in mid-air.

Thousand Nights saw clearly that they were seeds.

"What are you doing!" She had a dangerous premonition.

The next second, those seeds were gathered by Qian Ye in her hand, while her other hand extracted drop after drop of heart blood from her chest.

The blood glowed with a golden light.

It shot toward the seeds in her hand, turning them one by one into golden seeds that scattered around, falling to the ground and turning into flowers of the other shore one after another.

Qian Ye cut her wrist, and blood dripped onto the ground drop by drop, causing the flowers of the other shore to spread rapidly.

Thousand Nights did not understand.

For tens of thousands of years, she had never seen this move, but the unease in her heart told her to interrupt her.

She morphed into human form, summoned the hong ling umbrella in her hand, and attacked Qian Ye.

"Don't even think about succeeding."

Qian Ye retreated, her hands still moving, letting her blood spill. Looking at that familiar umbrella, she said, "So that's how it is. No wonder you insisted on binding with me."

"Heh, so the previous one was just a clone..."

"I cannot stand for it to still exist."

Red threads were instantly released, striking the red singer directly, "Break for me."

Before she had time to react, Qian Ye accelerated her hand movements, and the next second, she pierced right through it.

Thousand Nights retracted the red singer with an ugly expression; she had ultimately underestimated her combat power.

Looking at the hong ling umbrella that hadn't completely shattered, Qian Ye felt a bit of regret.

"Then it's your turn next." Qian Ye stared at her feet; the flowers of the other shore had already taken root and sprouted.

Thousand Nights moved again, only to suddenly discover that she could no longer move her feet.

"What did you do?"

"It's the effect of these flowers!" While speaking, she summoned black mist with both hands, attacking the flowers of the other shore alternately, but they remained motionless.

"Damn it." She could feel the flowers piercing into her skin, absorbing her energy.

"You want to completely replace me, so I'll give you a chance." Upon hearing her words, Thousand Nights was stunned. What did that mean?

Could it be...

Qian Ye flew to her side, feeling the power within her body; the power absorbed by the flowers of the other shore was being fed back to her.

"You are going to accept me." Thousand Nights' eyes were complex. The sudden change left her at a loss, but deep in her eyes, there was hidden vigilance; she didn't seem to believe her choice.

"Let me correct you: it is not accepting you."

"You and I were originally one."

"Besides, you are merely power I shared out; why shouldn't I take it back?" Qian Ye said matter-of-factly.

Seeing the determination in her eyes, Thousand Nights knew deeply that she intended to devour her.

"I will not let you have your way."

"I now carry various powers that you cannot absorb entirely." While speaking, Thousand Nights secretly gathered power, staring at her tightly, gritting her teeth.

"Rather than waiting for you to devour me, I might as well strike first." A powerful devouring force swept over. Qian Ye did not dodge at all, allowing her own power to be devoured.

When Thousand Nights felt the powerful strength, she was overjoyed, but the next moment, it came to an abrupt halt.

Accompanied by Qian Ye's evil smile, "Now it is my turn."

Countless flowers of the other shore bloomed, absorbing her power. They turned from red to black, decayed, were reborn, and absorbed again, cycling in this way.

"Damn you, damn you!" She roared in anger.

"Give all your power to me."

"Give it all to me."

The sealed All Evils discovered their power uncontrollably rushing toward her.

"How can this be? My power."

"Stop, quickly!"

No one paid attention. Thousand Nights frantically absorbed their power until the last bit of strength was drained.

The sealed All Evils turned to ashes in their unwillingness.

At this moment, Thousand Nights had completely gone berserk. The black mist had turned into blood mist, carrying a heavy stench of blood.

She had absorbed not only their power but also their blood energy.

"Hahaha, hahaha..."

"I have already felt a power even stronger than yours!"

"I am no longer a part of you. From this moment on, I am called Red Night."

"I will control the dark night, the God of Eternal Night."

This time she easily broke free from the flowers of the other shore, hovering in mid-air, "Now, it is my turn to counterattack."

Suddenly, a sly smile appeared on Qian Ye's face, "Finally waited for it."

"Retreat." At the command, the flowers of the other shore withered rapidly, finally turning into a few golden seeds. They looked at Qian Ye with reluctance before exiting the Floating Life Pagoda.

Meanwhile, Meng Yu and the others on the other floors had converged. Xiao Hua suddenly felt a pain in her chest.

"I, I feel so uncomfortable, it seems like something is about to happen." As soon as Xiao Hua finished speaking, their figures suddenly disappeared.

When they reappeared, they were outside the Floating Life Pagoda. They all saw the golden seeds outside the Floating Life Pagoda.

Xiao Hua's pupils shrank, "No, Master is going to sacrifice herself."

"No, no, Master, Master, there must be another way." Xiao Hua pounded on the door of the Floating Life Pagoda, but it remained motionless.

"No, no, don't..."

Meng Yu also realized what was happening, her face filled with disbelief, "How can it be like this? Is there really no other way?"

Xiao Hua knelt on the ground, lost and soul-broken, her head hanging low. After half a quarter of an hour, she wiped the tears from her face, and the next moment, her murderous gaze turned toward Lord Yan and the others.

"It's all because of you, forcing Master. I won't kill you, but I will make you see the price of losing Master!"

Xiao Hua clenched her fists tightly, suppressing the urge to kill them, blood from her hands dripping onto the ground.

Lord Yan's expression was grim; for a moment, he was actually frightened by the gaze of a little child.

"What do you mean by that?" No matter how much Lord Yan asked, Xiao Hua ignored him.

"What we do next is to protect Master; do not let anyone approach the Floating Life Pagoda."

The five of them worked together, guarding the Floating Life Pagoda to the death.
