Zhao Li Xin, Jin Hao, and the others attacked Lazarus at high speed while swinging their weapons, and releasing their talismans without hesitation, none of them thought about saving their weapons as everyone was aware that this was their last battle.
Girsha also flew swiftly while letting out a high shriek summoning a whirlwind that swept across Lazarus violently.
"You think you'll be able to beat me together, dream on!" Lazarus spun in the air soon after a huge vortex appeared in the sky and thousands of monsters flooded their world like a broken dam.
"You all take care of the monsters, me and Lord Girsha will face Lazarus!" Zhao Li Xin ordered.
They felt reluctant to leave Zhao Li Xin but seeing thousands of monsters coming into their world, they knew they had no choice.
"Yes, my lord!" they answered simultaneously.
"We need backup!" Bei Li Yan gave everyone a nervous glance as he realize no matter how strong they were this is not something just a few of them could deal with.
Immediately Jin Hao and the others shot a flare-up in the air instantly the dark sky illuminated with colorful colors presenting the four palaces.
Hei Shen's members were startled by the colorful flare sign in the sky, and for a moment they all gaped in shock because it had never happened for all four King's Palace to ask for help at the same time!
At the same time, they also realized how urgent this matter was, most of Hei Shen's members ran towards Yin Shan mountain while some of them continued to fight in Yu Jin city with other sects and imperial soldiers.
Yuan Shao, who also saw the arrival of the monsters from the vortex in the sky, also released a signal to ask for help, thankfully the place they were in was protected by the protective array made by Zhao Li Xin, but Yuan Shao did not know if this array would survive against the thousands of monsters that attacked them.
Ming Yue Yin carefully placed Lory's body on the ground then covered him with outer robes then took out his weapon in preparation for the arrival of the monsters.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"We can't let them destroy this array" Ming Yue Yin glanced at Lory's body.
Yuan Shao took Ming Yue Yin's hand "Don't worry, as long as we are together, no monsters can touch Lory, that is the least we can do for her"
A wide smile swept across Ming Yue Yin's face "I know it's not wrong to choose you...husband~"
Yuan Shao patted her head then he felt a roar that was getting closer he took out his sword and then cooly exited the protective array with Ming Yue Yin.
"They are coming" Yuan Shao's voice was calm and steady.
Ming Yue Yin shifted into a fighting stance than a wide grin appeared on her face, "This is going to be epic!"
Arthea pressed her hands against the ice wall, funny how her real body looked like a complete stranger to her. It's amazing how much time has taken from her she is undoubtedly not the same woman anymore but it doesn't matter cause her wish was always the same and finally, the moment she had been waiting for so long has arrived.
"Cavi, Demian…wait for me, it won't take long." The air around him suddenly changed the surge of power in his hands and a second later the entire ice wall shattered.
Zian who was standing behind her watched with a deep gaze as Arthea's body fell to the ground with a thump.
Zian stepped over to Arthea's body lying on the ground, he stared at Arthea with blank eyes, Zian's expression remained expressionless, he then raised his gaze to the woman floating in the air.
Her long bluish hair fluttered in the air before falling slowly framing her pretty and delicate face, not long after her eyelids started fluttering like butterfly wings, she opened her eyes and her purple jewel-like eyes glistened as if thousands of stars in the sky. are in place. it is beautiful. eye.
Zian stared unblinkingly as if afraid he would miss this sight when he blinked his eyes, meanwhile, Arthea's feet slowly landed gently on the cold ice.
"Thea..." Zian's voice sounded stiff and polite.
Arthea stared down at his arm with an uncomfortable expression, a feeling she felt strange but familiar at the same time it took some getting used to but then again she probably didn't need to worry about that.
Arthea looked at her old body which looked like a fifteen-year-old girl with silver hair, strangely sadness filled her eyes like the loss of one of her family.
Thinking it was just an empty doll that had been her home for a long time, Arthea knelt beside her old body and slowly caressed her face which now felt so cold it was no different from the ice around her which she knew would never be around. for a long period of time. this doll crumbles like dust when there is no soul to occupy it.
Arthea lifted the doll's body and placed it on a block of ice, even though it was only a doll, it still had to be treated with respect.
something unseen in her eyes Arthea took a deep breath then turned and left.
Zian wanted to call her but he didn't want to piss her off even more until the last moment, Zian bit her tongue to stop her from calling Arthea again.
But suddenly Arthea's steps stopped for a moment then Arthea said softly: "Sorry..."
"Hah?" Zian looked at Arthea in confusion.
Arthea then turned around "If only I could understand your loneliness, sadness, and fear maybe things wouldn't be like this"
Zian Frantically shook his head "No, Thea, not you! It was..."
"I still hate you!" Arthea cut him off but then her purple eyes turned misty her whole expression was pained "I hate everything you have done to my brother - my whole family but I....but I will forgive you..." she forced out her last words then tears rolled down her cheeks" I must forgive you…I don't want to hate anymore, it's enough!" Arthea wiped away her tears quickly after a while gradually her expression calmed down, on the other hand, Zian looked surprised as if he had just been struck by lightning in broad daylight, Zian froze.
Slowly a thin smile appeared on Arthea's face and she looked at Zian clearly he was taken aback, this was the first smile he had seen ever since that terrible day, after that day, Arthea never smiled at him again.
"You also have to do the same... Zian" Arthea's Expression was genuine but she didn't say any further she just turned around and walked away without looking back.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZian's eyes were still glued to where Arthea had disappeared slowly it dawned on him that this was the end, there be no hate anymore nor anger, pain, sadness especially love because it will all end today.
He didn't know if he should be celebrated or mourned maybe both, Zian turned around he walk towards Arthea's old body that carry no soul the woman that was so dear to him, Zian held the doll's hand it was pathetic only now he had the courage to touch her but he always been weak that's why he can't stop Lazaruswhile.
"I'm sorry - I'm really sorry Thea…" Zian broke down and sobbed like a child while holding the empty doll's hand, but soon the doll's skin turned the color of mud and a second later its whole body crumbled into dust.

It was a battlefield like no man had ever seen, a fight between humans, beasts, and monsters colliding as one. various kinds of gigantic beasts emerged from the black vortex while letting out long roars that shook the hearts of even the strongest cultivators.
At that time Huwang Shen Zi also appeared to help Jin Hao and the others face the giant monster but they were still outnumbered by the Lazarus-summoned monsters not to mention the remaining Hybrid Beasts outside the capital who suddenly became strong due to the presence of Lazarus.
"Lan Hua, this city protection array can't hold out any longer"
Mei Gui stared at the array anxiously.
The protective array that protected the remaining portion of the city that was still shaken by the barrage of attacks from the hybrid beasts and critters that they had cornered earlier were now attacking more ferociously even their bodies seemed to be bigger than before.
"It seems Our fight is still far from over" Cha Hua's expression became tense.
Jin Hua could hear the slow, dragging beat of her heart she didn't know if they can survive this.
"Don't worry, we just have to endure a little more, it won't be long before master finishes off that demon and this nightmare will be over!" Shin Jiu said very confidently.
"Ha, well said boy!" Tian Meng Ji burst into laughter, "Don't forget my apprentices never lose, as long as they are together no one can't beat them!"
Mu Jan Ge, the Su family including the people from Misty Lake, Jiu Yun sect, and other people exchanged reassuring glances, even though they didn't know what was going on there but they had to believe them because of all they got now.
But then the array started to glitch so everyone immediately swallowed the strengthening pills and then prepare their weapons and talismans, waiting for the inevitable to happen.
It didn't take long for the array to begin to sway before breaking completely and in an instant, all the dark creatures rushed towards them like a tidal wave, at the same time, all the cultivators charged while letting out battle cries that resounded through the air that was not inferior to the dark creature's terrifying screams.
At the edge of the world they fight together, they protect each other regardless of whatever differences they had in the past because now they are not fighting for their own glory nor for the fame of their sect not even for their home country but for something much bigger which is fighting for rights to survive not only them but also all the human in the world that's why they will fight with all they got untill their last breath.
