From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 361: Chapter 353: Back from the Dead?_1

"Fang Yun Zhong?"

Looking at the middle-aged man, Bai Qi could feel the aura of the Void emanating from him. Aside from Fang Yun Zhong, Bai Qi couldn't think of anyone else who possessed such strength and had also undergone Void Fusion.

With a flash, Fang Yun Zhong's figure appeared within ten meters of Bai Qi, his face wearing a mocking smile, "Well, girl, do you still think I'm wrong now?"

Bai Qi's heart skipped a beat; she had actually failed to capture his presence immediately!

To know, a master of her Realm should possess the ability to move instantaneously; relying solely on eyesight to track an enemy's movement was certainly too slow, necessitating perception for timely response.

But just now, she hadn't sensed Fang Yun Zhong's movement at all and had detected him only with her eyes.

"In your current state, can you still be considered human?"

Bai Qi immediately leaped back, retreating to a distance she deemed relatively safe, the Rose Sword in her hand still condensed with Spiritual Energy.

If a fight were to break out now, she was certain she stood almost no chance, not only because Fang Yun Zhong's earlier sneak attack had cost her an arm but also because she couldn't fully comprehend Fang Yun Zhong's current strength.

Therefore, she had made some preparations for escape in advance.

Fang Yun Zhong raised his hand, covered in dragon scales, "Who knows... But now, at least, I possess the strength of the Dragon Clan. I imagine even if I were in the Void, I would still be a noble being."

"Madman! Is this what you call coexisting with the Void? I think you're more like defecting to the enemy!" Bai Qi exclaimed angrily.

"Before the Cultivation Era arrived, humans always believed in the truth that one must not go against nature, and isn't the Void also a part of nature?"

"Since this world allows our human race to cultivate, it's naturally allowing us to resist foreign invaders!"

"Naive thoughts, pointless to discuss further."

Purple light began to gather in Fang Yun Zhong's hand, his voice spreading across the ocean, "Today, I, Fang Yun Zhong, shall execute every one of my own kind who opposes me!"

Seeing this, Bai Qi didn't hesitate to unleash her Rose Sword.

Fang Yun Zhong casually swatted the sword away, his movement as effortless as an adult flicking away a child's toy.

He felt his current Realm was not merely at the Xuan Ye state but might have even reached the Polar Day state, a level beyond.

The Polar Day state, a Realm long considered by humans to possibly lead to becoming an Immortal!

"Die!"

Fang Yun Zhong's draconic hand reached for Bai Qi, and in the next moment, a huge dragon claw, thousands of meters large, fell from the clouds and relentlessly crushed down towards Bai Qi.

Seeing this, Bai Qi immediately reached out her hand towards the Rose Sword that had been knocked away, and in the next instant, she swiftly flew towards the direction of the sword.

Fortunately, she had been prepared, for had the dragon claw descended with such speed, she might not have been able to escape.

After dodging the dragon claw, Bai Qi, without looking back, headed straight for the Tianjiang Continent.

Without a doubt, on her own, she was no match for Fang Yun Zhong at the moment, and Tianjiang was currently holding a funeral where many human masters would be gathered. She had to hurry and join them.

If she were to fight Fang Yun Zhong alone and ultimately lose, Fang Yun Zhong would have an even easier time defeating the other Tianjiang masters one by one.

Seeing Bai Qi escape with a sword he had casually knocked away amused Fang Yun Zhong even more.

What he intended to do today was not just to kill Bai Qi but also to establish his authority over the Tianjiang Continent, gathering his own forces and laying the foundation for his future reign as the Void Emperor.

...

Meanwhile, at the Tianjiang grand assembly hall, the people were still solemnly conducting the funeral ceremony, in silence and with grave expressions.

Boom—

Suddenly, a thunderous noise came from the horizon, shattering the serene and solemn atmosphere both inside and outside the venue.

Everyone looked up towards the distant sky, where a large shadow of a dragon claw loomed in the clouds, rapidly approaching.

"A behemoth has fallen from the Void again?!"

"This! How can it be so massive! Just one claw can stretch into the clouds, is much more outrageous than the Giant Dragon…"

A group of soldiers almost despaired upon seeing this.

They had just been through an extremely fierce war, with countless soldiers dead and many more wounded. If another creature from the Void stronger than the Giant Dragon were to arrive now, the entire planet would undoubtedly fall!

"Prepare for battle!"

The Commander-in-Chief, Xia Mo, had a pale face, but since the enemy had come, there was no reason not to fight.

At Xia Mo's command, all the Tianjiang soldiers in attendance took to the sky, and many civilians who had come for the funeral hurriedly fled.

Fang Ren and Mu Huanqing quickly joined them.

Looking at the huge claw in the clouds far away, Fang Ren furrowed his brow and also couldn't help but feel relieved that he had entrusted Cai Cai to his elder sister earlier. Otherwise, at this time, he wouldn't feel secure entrusting his child to anyone.

Rumble—

The sound grew nearer and louder, and dark clouds began to envelop the sky.

Storms raged in the wake of the giant claw in the clouds, lightning surged toward the earth, and everything in the distance began to blur.

Judging by this, the creature arriving this time was probably even more terrifying than the Giant Dragon.

"I hope my elder sister comes back quickly; otherwise, who knows how many more will be killed by this creature."

Fang Ren hurriedly adjusted his condition, pushing various augmentative Cultivation Techniques to their limits, and secretly swallowed a few pills when Mu Huanqing wasn't looking.

After all, these pills had strong side effects, and he was quite afraid of worrying Mu Huanqing.

However, despite these enhancements, his Sickle had broken in that space, leaving him without a handy weapon.

"That is! Qi'er?!"

As the giant claw approached rapidly, Bai Chaojin, noticing a small figure beside the claw, suddenly became unsettled.

"It really is Princess Bai Xi!"

"Quick, go help her!"

The soldiers of Tianjiang were also quick to react, turning into streaks of light as they rushed toward the distant sky.

Mu Huanqing didn't even have time to speak to Fang Ren before leading a squad of female soldiers from the Nine Heavens Corps to the frontline.

At the same time, the sudden turn of events was rapidly reported by journalists nearby, and soldiers from around the world began to converge on Tianjiang again.

Boom—

A giant claw from the sky struck down lightning towards the fleeing Bai Xi, who immediately used her Rose Sword to block. But the lightning was too ruthless, turning the variety of plants on her Rose Sword to ashes, leaving only a brown wooden blade hanging in mid-air.

"Leave your other hand behind too!"

Purple qi condensed on Fang Yun Zhong's dragon hand, gushing out like the Giant Dragon before.

With the Rose Sword already damaged by the lightning, Bai Xi had no choice but to raise a protective barrier of Spiritual Energy in front of her, while simultaneously striking out with a Xuanqing seal to weaken the incoming purple light column.

Boom—

A cloud of black smoke exploded in the sky.

Bai Xi spat out blood, her body sent flying by the blast, hurtling towards the Tianjiang soldiers' side.

With a muffled thud, Bai Xi crashed into the earth, skidding across it for a thousand meters before coming to a halt.

"Qi'er!"

Bai Chaojin immediately flew over and pulled Bai Xi from the mud, only to see that she was covered in blood and missing an arm.

"I had thought... we might join forces to fight him..."

Bai Xi clenched her teeth in hatred.

Fang Yun Zhong's strength was far beyond her expectations. With just this simple attack, she could foresee that even if all the soldiers of Tianjiang banded together, they might still be unable to kill Fang Yun Zhong.

"Human! Human?!"

Fang Yun Zhong's figure flashed, appearing within a hundred meters of the Tianjiang people, who all looked at this middle-aged man, unable to understand why he would attack Princess Bai Xi.

"It seems like I'm not very welcome here."

Seeing everyone's hostility, Fang Yun Zhong laughed loudly, "Where are the descendants of the Fang Family?"

"Fang Family? What does he mean by that, shouldn't the old Master Fang Yuanhao be much older than him? How could he call them descendants?"

"Be alert! This guy is full of Void energy, he might not even be human at all!"

...

In the midst of the chaos, Fang Yuanhao slowly stepped out from the crowd.

He stared blankly at Fang Yun Zhong, eyes filled with shock, his tone incredulous: "Father..."

"Father? Father?!"

"I must have heard wrong! The old Master is calling him father!"

The other elderly heads of the Tianjiang Clan also took a moment to closely observe the middle-aged man's face, finding him vaguely familiar.

These senior Family Heads had seen Fang Yun Zhong when they were younger.

Old Master Cao suddenly exclaimed in shock, "This! Isn't this just how Uncle Fang looked in the past!"

Even Mu Qing Mountain recognized the man: "It really is Uncle Fang... How is that possible!"

Bai Chaojin also hurriedly looked towards the sky, her gaze full of anger and shock as she looked at the middle-aged man, struggling to find words.

Fang Yun Zhong, wasn't he personally killed by his father, Bai Weiguo, years ago?

How was he still alive? And in his middle-aged appearance?

The most shaken of all, of course, was the Commander-in-Chief Xia Mo, who had truly interacted with Fang Yun Zhong in the past and knew more about his history.

"Grandfather..."

Fang Zheng and Fang Jing also stepped out from the ranks of the soldiers, even though they had never seen Fang Yun Zhong since they were born, the Fang Family had an album of his younger days, and this man matched it exactly!

The dead had come back to life!

All the heads of the Tianjiang Aristocratic Family, as well as the older generation, were utterly astonished; what they were seeing was simply inexplicable.

At that moment, Fang Ren was the calmest. He didn't want to get involved in Fang Family affairs.

But his only question was: Why did this man hurt Bai Xi?

Fang Yun Zhong asked Fang Yuanhao, "Yuanhao, where is my grandson Ah Ye?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Yuanhao's face showed a flicker of panic.

This was because Fang Ye had been killed by Fang Ren, a family member killing another, under his own watch as Family Head; it was a disgrace he couldn't bring himself to confess to his father.

"I killed him."

Fang Ren stepped forward without hesitation.

Killing Fang Ye, he did with relish!

If the middle-aged man embraced by the elder heads as 'Uncle' wanted revenge for Fang Ye, then he was ready to face it.
