āWhereās Wahuang? And the other peak grand supreme?ā The dark grand supreme frowned as she looked around. Her soul reformed and hovered over Chu Xingran.
She regained consciousness with full confidence, but floundered around slightly when she realized there was only Lu Yun in front of her. Incongruities were a definite indication that things were amiss.
Eyebrows identical to Chu Xingranās furrowed together and she dove for Chu Xingranās body without further discussion. While the situation was different from what she expected it to be, her plans remained the same. Just as Chu Xingran wanted to use her soul to become a peak grand supreme, so could she be reborn in return and use Chu Xingranās body to freely walk the chief worlds.
But just as the dark grand supremeās soul was about to burrow into her intended victim, a slender hand reached out of an unknown part of the void and tapped the soul bodyās chest.
The dark grand supreme went flying after a fierce collision and Chu Xingran began to change from her manās appearance. She turned into a young girl dressed in purple robes with a refreshing air around herāYun Yi.
āYouā¦ā Lu Yun gaped at the sudden appearance. While he knew that Yun Yi must have done something to Chu Xingran as part of her plans for the dark grand supreme, he never imagined that sheād come in person!
This was Yun Yiās primary body! Sheād used a mysterious method to instantaneously arrive where they were. The dark grand supreme was injured the moment she tried to possess Chu Xingran!
Both sides had placed their pieces on the game board; this was the moment of truth.
āDonāt do anything,ā Yun Yi interrupted when Lu Yun opened his mouth to speak. āSheās keeping one of her corporeal soul parts in the land of darkness. Everything that happens here will be closely observed by them. It is not yet time to reveal your trump card.ā
Lu Yun had been one breath away from utilizing the Tome of Life and Death. They were in the treasureās inner world and no one could enter without his permission. However, Yun Yi had left a doorway on Chu Xingran and made her way here through it.
But when she arrived, she created the spectacle of breaking through the void and refrained from revealing the truth of this world. She was also of one mind with Qiu Feishan as sheād attacked the dark grand supreme where the Autumnus powerhouse had hit earlier.
Being the foremost powerhouse of the chief worlds, Qiu Feishanās attack connected not only with the physical body, but also the soul. Yun Yiās blow had pierced through the dark grand supremeās body of the soul and fully severed her connection to Chu Xingran.
āMaster!ā A strange light faded from Chu Xingranās eyes and the ruthless look in her gaze cleared up. Lu Yun could now clearly identify her gender through her aura.
āMaster?ā he repeated uncertainly.
āMaster took me in as her disciple the day I was born.ā Chu Xingran remained in the form of a man and spoke in a masculine voice. But without the light, Lu Yun easily determined her gender.
It was coming to light that the entirety of the situation was a massive scheme that began the moment Chu Xingran was born. Although she later entered the Land of Reincarnation to kill Mo Yi and the Dao King, everything remained within Yun Yiās grasp.
Chu Xingran was Yun Yiās disciple!
Her memories had been sealed previously, so her resistance against Yun Yi hadnāt been an act. How else would an ant like her evade a grand supreme for so long?
The land of darkness that Lu Yun refined in the Land of Reincarnation was purposefully sent there by the bigger land of darkness outside. They wanted to keep the Land of Reincarnation under surveillance.
Although Chu Xingran had forgotten the truth, Yun Yi continuously guided her to subconsciously complete certain tasks. Killing Mo Yi and the Dao King again and again, and later allying with the endarkened had all been part of Yun Yiās plans. She wanted to use her disciple to erode that patch of darkness, but the anomaly that was Lu Yun jumped out half way.
His appearance ended everything ahead of time and destroyed the land of darkness as well. It was then that he became more than an ant and truly received due consideration from these great beings.
Lu Yun slowly exhaled, finally understanding the ins and outs of everything. It didnāt make sense that Yun Yi would arrange this grandiose scheme for an insignificant Chu Xingran. Using Chu Xingran and Xie Tianxun as sacrifices? There was nothing in modern times that could withstand Yun Yiās own strength, she didnāt need to go through that process.
Everything had been for the land of darkness.
With one of their peak grand supremes in custody and her capture meaning a future peak grand supreme for the chief worlds, the scheme was a resounding success.
The world began trembling as a massive doorframe materialized over the dark grand supreme.
āSo youāre the last remnants of that heavenly courtā¦ It will be worth losing my life if I eliminate you and uproot the final foundation of that court!ā The dark grand supreme gradually turned pure black and expelled the hellfire that Lu Yun had ignited on her.
āBoth of you, back up.ā Yun Yiās eyes widened and a longsword appeared in her hand. It transmuted into purple light and slashed at the demonic shadow. No matter how many layouts had been expended and pieces cast before, this was the moment of the final battle!
Lu Yun shifted Chu Xingran behind him with a gentle beckon and opened his hand. Hellfire jumped between his fingers and grew to envelop his fists, forming something like a pair of boxing gloves.
āYou canāt join them!ā Chu Xingran quickly protested when she saw that Lu Yun was looking for an opening to join the fight.
āYun Yi canāt beat her by herself.ā Lu Yun stared intently at the battle of the peak grand supremes. While it appeared that Yun Yi held the upper hand, the dark grand supreme remained coolly composed and constantly probed for Yun YIās weaknesses. She was only a soul form, but she seemed strong enough to suppress Yun Yi.
The dark grand supremeās ultimate goal wasnāt to take the form of a peak grand supreme who could walk the chief worlds, but to kill Yun Yi! She was here for Yun Yi!
Since that was the case, she would be prepared. Just as Yun Yi was waiting for this moment, so was the dark grand supreme. The doorframe over her was connected to the land of darkness and pulled a steady stream of energy from it. As strong as Yun Yi was, she wasnāt able to withstand the entire land of darkness.

Lu Yun made his move. He punched twin black meteors at the dark grand supremeās heart. At the same time, a laughing and crying face appeared on his own.
