Although the Holy Resurrection Light bore the word "resurrection," even the Holy Resurrection Light that Bai Qingshuang had previously released using all her Holy Radiance had not resurrected a single person.

So, the Seventh Tier master Zhou Mi had died completely!

Only Pope Fan Zhen and Li Hongyun, who had always been utterly loyal to Fan Zhen, remained on the opposing side.

"It's just you two left now."

Bai Qingshuang's white robe was stained with blood. Her Tribunal uniform was completely dyed red with the blood seeping from her chest.

But her expression remained indifferent, just as before.

"Bai Qingshuang, you are at the end of your strength. It is time to settle the long-standing accounts between us."

Fan Zhen took a step forward. The contest and struggle between him and Bai Qingshuang had lasted for so long.

Today, a final resolution would finally be made, which was indeed a happy occasion.

Actually, Bai Qingshuang thought so too.

"Yes, it's time to settle the long-standing accounts between us, Bai Qingshuang. You say we are remnants of the old era, while you are the harbinger of the new. Now it's time to see whether it's the end of the old era and the beginning of a new one, or the shattering of the dawn and a return to the past. Both outcomes are truly worth looking forward to!"

A smile also appeared on Bai Qingshuang's face.

"Come to think of it, I should thank you. You helped me kill Zhou Mi and the others, saving me a lot of trouble."

Fan Zhen's face was filled with mirth, as if his comrade's death brought him great joy.

However, Bai Qingshuang just shook her head indifferently.

"I am not interested in the deceit and treachery between you. There has already been enough filth, and more would only sicken me. Come, Fan Zhen, let me see the final strength of His Holiness the Pope!"

"Very well! Hongyun, go!"

"Yes."

As soon as Fan Zhen issued his command, Li Hongyun immediately took the lead, rushing in front of Fan Zhen.

She seemed to never refuse Fan Zhen's orders.

And Pope Fan Zhen followed behind Li Hongyun, a position from which, even if Bai Qingshuang had any power left to counterattack, the first to bear the brunt would be Li Hongyun, not him.

It seemed somewhat despicable, but among the three people present, none mentioned this situation.

The battles between Transcendents are not child's play, nor are they petty squabbles.

Only those who survive have meaning.

The process and means are never the most important thing.

"Radiance!"

"Radiance!"

Both Fan Zhen and Li Hongyun activated Radiance, the glow of Holy Radiance particularly dazzling at this moment.

As it shone upon Bai Qingshuang, the light seemed to swallow even her body.

Bai Qingshuang did not move, nor did she make any move to counterattack.

She was very tired. Amidst the siege of four, she had killed two.

Her body had already reached its limit, thoroughly drained of both physical strength and energy.

Therefore, she would use a more direct method to end this battle.

Bai Qingshuang raised her hands high, and a golden disc appeared between her hands.

The light emitted from this disc was like a golden sun, instantly dispersing the Radiance released by Fan Zhen and Li Hongyun.

Bai Qingshuang looked at Fan Zhen and Li Hongyun, her eyes gradually sharpening.

"I am the Truth. The Truth is Judgment. And you are guilty!"

HUM!

「...」

The golden light pillar that erupted from the Second Ring completely obscured the sky and the earth.

Even the light of the sun was unable to contend with the brilliance of the Truth Disc at this moment.

Everyone instinctively closed their eyes.

Only Qi Xinzhu!

She never closed her eyes.

Even if the light made her eyes red and swollen, stinging, and tearing, she did not close her eyes.

Because before this, she felt the fluctuations of the Doomsday Disc.

Qi Xinzhu was very familiar with this kind of fluctuation. She knew it well from practicing with Lu Luo for a long time.

This was Lu Luo's aura!

Is Lu Luo returning? Qi Xinzhu wasn't sure, but she always held on to hope.

However, following the fluctuation, the Doomsday Disc did not appear, and neither did Lu Luo.

This made Qi Xinzhu very anxious.

She worried whether something had happened to Lu Luo and what had become of his battle with that hidden enemy.

These were all things that Qi Xinzhu was extremely concerned about.

But she couldn't speak out at this time, nor could anyone help her.

So she could not close her eyes, lest she miss Lu Luo appearing.

In such a situation, she could only rely on herself.

Just as Qi Xinzhu was growing anxious, a black-purple light appeared under the brilliance of the Truth Disc, mixed within the golden light of Truth.

Qi Xinzhu was certain that light was Lu Luo.

Or rather, it was Lu Luo's Doomsday Disc.

It quietly appeared before Qi Xinzhu, but there were no subsequent actions.

Lu Luo did not appear, which made Qi Xinzhu both surprised and puzzled.

Lu Luo, did something happen?

The black-purple light gradually dimmed, and Qi Xinzhu knew that if she didn't do something now, she might lose Lu Luo forever.

"Do you need me to do something?"

The black light did not respond, and it grew a little fainter.

Compared to the golden Truth illuminating the sky, the black light was so minute it was almost invisible.

Qi Xinzhu seemed to understand some of the meaning behind the appearance of the red light at this moment and tried to ask:

"Has something happened to Lu Luo? Does he need my help now?"

The black light still did not respond, but deep inside, Qi Xinzhu had already made a decision.

"Take me to him, take me to where Lu Luo is. Please, Great Disc!"

Qi Xinzhu reached out her finger. As her finger touched the black light, an intense sensation of spatial tearing assaulted her mind.

Qi Xinzhu had never experienced such torment before.

Tears had appeared in the corners of her eyes, a natural reaction of her body.

But her jaw was clenched tight. Though pained sounds—NNGH... NNGH...—occasionally escaped her, she never uttered a word of pain.

The golden light of Truth was gradually torn open by this darkness.

Just as if within Truth, darkness also existed.

Qi Xinzhu's body was pulled in at once.

She felt as though she had entered a spatial turbulence, drifting in a vast channel.

BANG!

As she drifted through the spatial channel, Qi Xinzhu felt as if she bumped into something.

The binding feeling of space made it very difficult for Qi Xinzhu to move, and she turned her body with some effort.

When she saw what she had bumped into, even with her extremely strong psychological fortitude, she couldn't help but be startled.

EH?!

The thing before her was a corpse, a woman's corpse.

This woman's body was covered in scars, her limbs full of traces of battle.

The remnants of Holy Radiance, Qi He, and the intense aura of the Exotic Species, were as clear as if they were etched into Qi Xinzhu's heart.

Steamy Qi He, the aura of Exotic Species... The person who killed this woman was Lu Luo!

But the intensity of this Holy Radiance!

Qi Xinzhu found it hard to believe. Though the woman was dead, the life force that had erupted from her and the strong remnants of Holy Radiance were undeniable. Without exception, they all indicated that this woman's strength level was at the Seventh Tier!

Did Lu Luo kill a Seventh Tier? This...

It wasn't that Qi Xinzhu doubted Lu Luo's strength. Lu Luo had just defeated Wan Jing head-on.

To defeat a top Sixth Tier from the Inner Ring as a Fourth Ring Fifth Tier was no small feat. Such a record, anywhere else, would have distinguished him as a favored child of heaven.

Given time, Qi Xinzhu wouldn't be surprised if Lu Luo became a Seventh Tier, or even a top-tier Seventh Tier rivaling the Judgment Chief.

But Lu Luo had only just broken through to the Fifth Tier.

How could a Fifth Tier possibly have the ability to kill a Seventh Tier?

Especially since this Seventh Tier belonged to the Church.

Without even thinking about it, Qi Xinzhu knew that a Seventh Tier from the Church would certainly be much more powerful than those Guardians from the Council.

How exactly did Lu Luo do it?

"Lu Luo? Husband?"

Qi Xinzhu shouted out into the endless spatial channel.

But this place was like a broken and hollow world. There was no feedback to her calls.

Qi Xinzhu looked ahead. At the end of the spatial channel, a faint dark purple glow seemed to emerge.

If white could represent the Dawn Church, the Dawn Disc, then this dark purple represented Lu Luo.

Is Lu Luo's disc over there? I should have a look.

Qi Xinzhu took action.

Even though it was difficult to move in such an environment, she decided to head towards the end of the channel.

As she moved, Qi Xinzhu glanced at Mo Fan's corpse.

She wasn't sure if this corpse still had any use.

She had some thoughts about taking the corpse with her, but after a brief attempt, she gave up.

Right now, she was having enough trouble moving on her own, let alone carry a corpse.

Forget it. I need to find Lu Luo first.

Qi Xinzhu began to drift deeper into the spatial channel.

The surrounding environment made her feel as though, after losing gravity, everything became very viscous.

She swam laboriously through the channel, and after what felt like an eternity, the dark spot of light in front seemed to have grown slightly larger.

It seems a bit closer now?

After confirming that it wasn't just her imagination, Qi Xinzhu continued heading deeper into the channel.

「...」

In the Second Ring, Bai Yuetong rested her chin in her hand and sat by the window in her room, wearing a pair of mechanical sunglasses she made herself.

She watched the golden light of Truth burst forth from deep in the Second Ring.

Her expression was calm and serene, a change from her usually cheerful and laughing demeanor.

Mom's color, huh! It's really amazing!

Bai Yuetong didn't seem surprised by the power Bai Qingshuang unleashed.

Logically, it would be meaningless for an ordinary person like her to watch the golden Truth.

But there she was, staring unwaveringly at the golden light, as if she could discern something within it.

Mom's Truth, quite the domineering term!

Bai Yuetong smiled. Suddenly, her gaze froze, and she stood up from the window.

Lu Luo...

Bai Yuetong saw the black light that represented Lu Luo.

Although the black light was only a fleeting flash, mixed in with the golden Truth, Bai Yuetong still saw it accurately and unmistakably.

Has something happened?

Bai Yuetong felt somewhat helpless, as if there was nothing she could do at this time.

The aftermath of a battle between top-tier Transcendents could instantly kill her many, many times over.

She didn't know what to do.

Rushing over in my mecha? That would be utterly meaningless.

So what should I do now?

Bai Yuetong picked up her phone and quickly dialed a number.

RING! RING!

The person on the other end of the phone was Bai Yuetong's father, Luo Xuemin.

At this moment, he also found it strange. Normally, Bai Yuetong wouldn't call this number.

It wasn't that Bai Yuetong couldn't reach out to him, but rather, this number was Luo Xuemin's emergency contact number.

Without an absolutely important event, this number was not to be used.

The very act of Bai Yuetong dialing this number had already surprised Luo Xuemin.

"Hello, Tong Tong? What's the matter?"

"Dad, did you see the light from the Second Ring?"

Luo Xuemin thought Bai Yuetong was worried about the struggle between her mother and the Pope.

But to be honest, even though he was a member of the Inner Ring Council, one of the most politically powerful people in the world, the matters of the Inner Ring Church were still not something he could meddle in.

Especially Bai Qingshuang and the Pope, these two individuals.

The two of them operated completely outside the jurisdiction of the Alliance's laws.

It could be said that between the two positions of Judgment Chief and Pope, there was only mutual judgment, and no Alliance law could constrain them.

"Tong Tong, I know you're worried about your mother, but the matters between your mother and the Pope belong to the Church and to themselves. We have no way to intervene in this matter. And even if I wanted to help her regardless of everything else, unless I could mobilize the full power of the Council, otherwise, in front of them, a single Council family really doesn't hold any decisive significance."

Luo Xuemin spoke quite sincerely.

He didn't exaggerate his role, just simply analyzed the current situation.

Bai Yuetong understood what he was saying, but the help she needed was not for Bai Qingshuang.

"Dad, the favor I ask of you has nothing to do with Mom."

"Not your mother?"

Luo Xuemin was a bit puzzled at this moment. If it wasn't Bai Qingshuang, what kind of help did Bai Yuetong need?

Luo Xuemin still did not rashly agree to Dumb Hair.

The Council was treading on thin ice at that moment.

And Luo Xuemin, as the second link that facilitated the Council's re-alliance, had to be even more cautious.

Fearing that any problem within the Council would ruin the great situation he and Lu Luo had painstakingly established.

So, even when his dearest daughter asked for help, he had to be extremely careful.

He had no choice. He was the Family Head of a family and had to be responsible for his own family.

The Luo Family was not his alone to consider.

The descendants of the Luo Family were not only Bai Yuetong.

"You need to tell me first, what exactly do you need my help with?"

"Daddy, I want you to send some people with me to the Second Ring."

"To the Second Ring? What do you want to do in the Second Ring?"

Bai Yuetong pursed her lips, her voice already carrying a hint of a sob.

"Lu Luo is in trouble. I need to go find him."
