A God-tier Counter-damage Priest, I am the Master!

242: Success achieved, a graceful retirement begins!No way! They’re running away already?

King Rank Experts aren’t all that impressive, are they?!

The other King Rank enemy’s act of fleeing without a fight caused Bai Tian to pause slightly.

”(
＞dish＜) Damn it! Release the Dragon-Slaying Arrows, wipe them out!”

Although the blue-hatted old man fled without fighting, the Prefecture Lord was not without hope; he possessed another formidable force at his disposal.

As his command fell, from among the fleeing guests all around, a group of figures with sharp, imposing auras, each carrying patterned crossbows, immediately revealed themselves.

The Dragon-Slaying Arrows in their hands were engraved with powerful attack runes. Ten arrows fired together could wound a mighty demonic beast; a hundred or a thousand fired together could even slay flood dragons and dragons. They were among the most lethal weapons in this world.

Faced with the appearance of over a thousand enemies wielding Dragon-Slaying Arrows from all sides, even Bai Tian felt a sense of danger.

He couldn’t let them have the chance to unleash them.

”Everyone, stop! Whoever dares to act recklessly, I’ll kill Princess Liu Yue.”

At that very moment, a voice filled with tension resounded across the scene.

It was City Lord Yun Bo. Under the pretext of protecting her, he had somehow approached Princess Liu Yue, injured her guards, and taken her hostage.

Seeing this, the Prefecture Lord from afar was furious to the extreme: ”Ying Lie, you dare betray me?”

Worried for his daughter’s safety, the Prefecture Lord had no choice but to stop the elite guards about to release the Dragon-Slaying Arrows.

Seizing the opportunity, Bai Tian, Liao Fan, Emil, and even Jiang Yuebai, who had been hiding all along, swiftly attacked, killing the enemies with the Dragon-Slaying Arrows.

Moreover, even Liu Yanxue had already been rescued by Jiang Yuebai and was now venting the grievances she had suffered these past days.

”Old dog Ying Lie, my father treated you well. Why did you invite wolves into the house and commit such a treasonous act?”

Princess Liu Yue, captured as a hostage, was both shocked and furious.

Although she was arrogant and domineering, she herself possessed little strength, only being slightly stronger than an ordinary woman.

A sharp slapping sound rang out as a heavy blow landed on Princess Liu Yue’s face.

City Lord Yun Bo gritted his teeth and said, ”Treated me well, my ass. That old thief, your father, forcibly married my youngest daughter, tormenting and beating her day after day. Did he ever treat my daughter, or me, as human beings?”

Then, City Lord Yun Bo raised his voice and shouted, ”Old thief! All City Lords, Town Chiefs, and Village Chiefs of Yunmeng Prefecture, listen up!”

”I, Ying Lie, will replace you and become the new Prefecture Lord. Those who support me, stand on the left. Those who don’t, stand on the right.”

”In short, today, those who submit will prosper, and those who resist will perish.”

These words caused an uproar throughout the crowd.

Only Bai Tian remained expressionless. After giving Liao Fan and the others a meaningful glance, they instantly left as a group.

Bai Tian simply didn’t believe the old man City Lord Yun Bo’s words.

Since the other party dared to rebel, he must have hidden strength and methods.

If Bai Tian really helped him suppress the Prefecture Lord, the other party would most likely have means reserved to deal with him afterwards.

It was better to go get the benefits first and let City Lord Yun Bo and the Prefecture Lord fight it out until both were weakened.

Seeing Bai Tian and his group retreat, City Lord Yun Bo’s expression changed: ”Senior, didn’t you promise to join forces with me? Why are you leaving before our great task is accomplished?”

However, Bai Tian completely ignored City Lord Yun Bo, leading Liao Fan and the others straight to the Prefecture Lord’s Gift Treasury.

Countless people had come to deliver gifts today. Not to mention gold and silver, the rare treasures were innumerable. Seizing them all would be a colossal fortune.

With Bai Tian and the others joining forces, no one could stop them. They forcefully broke into the Prefecture Lord’s Gift Treasury.

Seeing the mountain-like piles of rare treasures inside, Bai Tian’s eyes lit up, and he said to everyone,

”Everyone, take as much as you can. Once you’re done, return to our world immediately.”

In the Otherworld Blood Domain, Bai Tian didn’t want to stay long. His goals were already achieved: rescuing Liao Fan and Liu Yanxue, and plundering a prefecture’s gift treasury was more than enough.

After all, Bai Tian wasn’t arrogant enough to think his current strength allowed him to run rampant in the Otherworld Blood Domain.

Remember, there’s always a higher sky and stronger people; there was no need to take further risks.

In fact, events later proved Bai Tian’s choice to be very wise.

After he appeared and scared off the blue-hatted old man, the Yunmeng Prefecture Lord had already secretly sent out a distress signal for urgent reinforcements.

Above Yunmeng Prefecture was the Heavenly Dragon Province, and above the Heavenly Dragon Province was the [Sheji Dynasty].

Although King Rank Experts were powerful, the Otherworld Blood Domain still had Emperor Rank, and even ancient Emperor-level beings who hadn’t appeared for generations.

These were terrifying figures over a hundred levels. Even with an immortal artifact and the Rebound Talent, Bai Tian wouldn’t fare well against such existences.

Especially with several friends by his side, there was really no need to take the risk.

While Bai Tian and his friends were seizing treasures here, outside, City Lord Yun Bo, knowing he had no way back, was employing all his means, fighting the Prefecture Lord with all his might.

Although Bai Tian left early, he still helped City Lord Yun Bo immensely, leaving the Prefecture Lord temporarily without a King Rank Expert at his side.

By the time City Lord Yun Bo and the Prefecture Lord’s forces were locked in fierce combat, Bai Tian and his group had already achieved all their objectives.

Bai Tian then turned his gaze to Liao Fan and Liu Yanxue and said, ”Is there anyone you want us to help you kill?”

After all, the two had been trapped here for so long; they must have suffered many grievances, leaving them unsettled.

If they had grudges, Bai Tian was willing to help them vent their anger before leaving.

But unexpectedly, both Liao Fan and Liu Yanxue shook their heads.

Liu Yanxue smiled bitterly and said, ”Thanks to this guy catching the princess’s fancy, although we were prisoners these days, we didn’t suffer any truly terrible treatment.”

Liao Fan also nodded, ”There’s no one I particularly want to kill. Instead...”

After hesitating, Liao Fan said, ”If possible, I’d like to save that princess once, to repay these days of...”

Although Liao Fan had given Princess Liu Yue a slap in anger the moment he regained his strength earlier,

he had to admit he owed her some gratitude.

Bai Tian smiled understandingly and said to the Nine Extremes Thunder Lion and the Vajra Demon Ape, who were glowing with satisfaction from their feast, ”You two go with him. After rescuing the princess, come back immediately to regroup.”

The two immortal pets, having happily feasted on the rare spiritual treasures, were very obedient this time, nodding without hesitation and leaving with Liao Fan.

Meanwhile, Bai Tian, with Jiang Yuebai, Liu Yanxue, and Emil, instantly left the place.

The time it takes an incense stick to burn later, Liao Fan returned safely with the Nine Extremes Thunder Lion and the Vajra Demon Ape to regroup.

Just before the Yunmeng Prefecture Lord’s powerful reinforcements were about to arrive, a brilliant cross-domain teleportation array pattern surged into the sky.

Bai Tian and his group had accomplished their mission and successfully retreated, returning home.

After they left, space suddenly tore open on the scene, and from within emerged a group of supreme powerhouses whose auras soared to the heavens and shook the earth.

Even the Yunmeng Prefecture Lord and City Lord Yun Bo, who had been fighting to the death earlier, all appeared here.

However, the expressions on their faces were no longer those of sworn enemies. Instead, they looked excitedly at the residual cross-domain teleportation array aura lingering in the air.

”Your Majesty, the two of us have not failed our mission. We successfully deceived them, making them leave cross-domain information in our world.”

The Prefecture Lord and City Lord Yun Bo bowed respectfully towards a leading figure with dual-pupils.

”Excellent. You two will be credited with the greatest merit.”

The Dual-Pupil Emperor laughed heartily towards the sky: ”The spiritual energy of our Blood Domain will be exhausted within a hundred years. We urgently need a new world to sustain us and countless living beings, to establish a foundation for ten thousand generations.”

As he spoke, the Dual-Pupil Emperor’s eyes opened wide, surging with boundless divine power. A scene of time reversal actually appeared, showing the earlier image of the Vajra Demon Ape and the Nine Extremes Thunder Lion imprinting the cross-domain array patterns.

The cosmic coordinates leading to the Blue Star World were directly exposed.

After obtaining this crucial string of cosmic coordinates, the Dual-Pupil Emperor and all the surrounding powerhouses were ecstatic.

The Dual-Pupil Emperor stretched out his hands excitedly and declared, ”The cosmic coordinates to the new world have been obtained.”

”Spread the order. Mobilize the entire domain. Follow us into the new world and conquer everything there.”

As the Dual-Pupil Emperor’s voice fell,

all the surrounding powerhouses, including the Prefecture Lord and City Lord Yun Bo, knelt down in excitement, shouting in unison.

”We pledge to follow Your Majesty and establish a foundation for ten thousand generations!”

Immediately, the Dual-Pupil Emperor once again displayed supreme, mighty power, actually causing the cross-domain teleportation array previously set up by the Nine Extremes Thunder Lion and Vajra Demon Ape to reappear, opening a spatiotemporal gate.

The Dual-Pupil Emperor, of an unknown rank, opened his eyes once more, and countless spatiotemporal tunnels appeared around him, allowing billions upon billions of living beings from the Blood Domain to gather instantly.

All the living beings respectfully chanted the name of the Dual-Pupil Emperor.

”My people, follow me to create a glorious new world!”

As the Dual-Pupil Emperor’s voice fell, he was about to employ supreme means to fully open the cross-domain spatiotemporal gate.

His pair of dual-pupils transformed into sun, moon, and stars, capable of encompassing all things, instantly drawing all the billions upon billions of combat-capable living beings of the Blood Domain into his gaze.

Then, he moved, directly entering the cross-domain spatiotemporal gate, eagerly anticipating entering the Blue Star World to conquer and dominate everything there.

But moments later, the Dual-Pupil Emperor, filled with boundless ambition and confidence, expecting to appear in the Blue Star World, suddenly had his expression drastically change.

”This... where is this?”

An accident had occurred. He hadn’t reached the Blue Star World but had arrived in an endless, dark, sinister, sunless, and eerie region.

The air was filled with a strange power that even made the Dual-Pupil Emperor’s heart palpitate with fear.

”Hehehe...”

”Welcome to the Netherworld!”

At that moment, an eerie demonic voice that unsettled even the Dual-Pupil Emperor echoed through the air.

—

Meanwhile, within the Nine Heavens!

Bai Tian and the others had just returned not long ago. He was watching a cross-dimensional projection with the Vajra Demon Ape and the Nine Extremes Thunder Lion.

”Tsk! I knew there was a trick all along. Trying to deceive us, invade our territory? Dream on.”

The Vajra Demon Ape said with a curl of his lip.

The Nine Extremes Thunder Lion also sneered, ”That world’s Emperor had a clever plan. Pity he couldn’t fool this Immortal King.”

”The hidden hand you and I left sent them into that legendary Land of Fallen Immortals, the Netherworld. No matter how many they send, they’ll all die there.”

Bai Tian appreciatively took out a package containing a large amount of rare treasures and tossed it to the two immortal pets.

”Well done. This is your reward.”

In fact, this rescue mission to the other world had been too smooth, so smooth it made Bai Tian constantly suspicious, even uneasy.

It wasn’t until he secretly communicated with the two immortal pets that he detected something amiss in advance and turned the tables on the Dual-Pupil Emperor of the Otherworld Blood Domain.

Thus, they avoided a monumental crisis!

Bai Tian knew that as reality merged with the Nine Heavens, the challenges he would face in the future would become increasingly arduous.

But risk and opportunity coexisted. Only by continuously improving and strengthening himself could he protect himself, all his loved ones and friends, and even safeguard the Blue Star World.

A surge of heroic spirit rose in Bai Tian. He looked towards Jiang Yuebai, Liao Fan, Liu Yanxue, and Emil waiting for him in the distance and strode towards them.

”Let’s go!”

”No matter what the future holds, we’ll walk it together, fighting side by side.”

Jiang Yuebai, Liao Fan, and Liu Yanxue all reached out towards Bai Tian, and the four placed their hands together.

Emil hesitated a little, raising her hand before slowly pulling it back.

”As long as you treat us sincerely, we will treat you sincerely in the future.”

”If you truly want to join us, come on!”

Jiang Yuebai spoke to Emil gently for the first time.

Hearing this, the latter immediately smiled like a blooming flower and reached out to place her hand on theirs.

From this moment on, the foundation of trust was established among the five future Saint Venerables, whose might would shake the ages and who would attain eternal life.

Their myth and legend had officially begun!
