Chapter 1903: Dust Settles, Flee in Defeat (Part 2)
Editor: Henyee Translations
This signaled that the other battlefield of Golden Immortals was likely drawing to a close!
And the outcome didn’t seem difficult to predict. No matter how confident Old Man Yunshi was in Jiang Chengxuan, he didn’t believe Jiang could take on two veteran Golden Immortals—Arterial Blood Demon Immortal and Ghostwalker Immortal—alone and suppress them both.
The most likely result was that Jiang Chengxuan had employed extraordinary means to successfully break through the encirclement and escape the battlefield. That, in Yunshi’s mind, was already the best possible outcome.
But it was far from enough.
Once Jiang Chengxuan withdrew, under the might of Arterial Blood Demon Immortal, how could the entire Yunlan Immortal Sect army possibly resist a single Golden Immortal?
Being pinned here, just a bit more time, and the core disciples of Yunlan Immortal Sect might be utterly wiped out in the Arterial Blood Demon Realm—reduced to nameless corpses!
If that really happened, then from this day forward, the Yunlan Immortal Sect would be nothing more than an empty name. Even preserving their ancestral mountain would become a pipe dream!
This battle, one that was supposed to be a decisive purge, could instead become the very grave Yunlan dug for itself.
Ten thousand years of foundation—gone in an instant!
With such thoughts, how could Yunshi not panic? Even with ten thousand years of experience, this was a blow he could hardly bear!
“Jie jie jie… Looks like the battle on the other side is over!”
“Old dog Yunshi, still not giving up? If you don’t retreat with your troops now, your Yunlan Immortal Clan will be completely annihilated!”
Di Xiu Daxian (Grand Immortal Di Xiu) naturally picked up on this shift as well. He let out a cold, sinister laugh, pressing his advantage, speaking with smug satisfaction.
But his words were not just for taunting—they were calculated. He was subtly suggesting that Yunshi should retreat.
It was his own plan all along. He didn’t truly want to see the Yunlan Immortal Sect entirely destroyed—he only wished for them to be gravely weakened!
Only that way could the conflict between Yunlan Immortal Sect and the Arterial Blood Sect drag on to mutual destruction—so that he could continue to stir the pot and reap the spoils.
To him, whether Arterial Blood Sect won or lost didn’t matter. As long as Yunshi fled, he would not stop him—in fact, it suited him perfectly.
Yunshi, of course, caught the deeper meaning in Di Xiu’s words and frowned.
Should he really flee now?
This battle, where the entire fate of Yunlan Immortal Sect had been wagered… was it really ending in failure?
Faced with this choice, even someone like Yunshi hesitated, unable to decide.
In the end, he realized it might be too late to turn the tide. A painful retreat might be the only remaining path—the last chance for Yunlan Sect’s survival.
But though Yunshi’s expression turned pale, he could not accept this reality from the bottom of his heart.
“Buzz—!”
Just then, a wave of powerful Golden Immortal might pierced through the void, rushing straight into the universe battlefield where Yunshi and Di Xiu clashed.
Both were startled—but their reactions differed wildly: one’s face twisted in a sinister grin, while the other’s turned cold and grim.
No doubt, just as they had guessed, the other Golden Immortal battle had ended—and the victor was now arriving.
“Jie jie jie! Still not fleeing…?”
Di Xiu chuckled coldly, looking utterly confident and smug.
Yunshi’s heart sank. He began to withdraw his own universe phenomenon, preparing to retreat and evacuate the remaining Yunlan Immortal Sect forces.
“You sinister old ghost—so you’re the helper Arterial Blood Old Demon invited?”
But before anyone could act further, a voice filled with majestic calm echoed across the void—cutting through everything with its sheer authority.
In that instant, both Golden Immortals froze, expressions stunned.
No one had expected that he would be the one to arrive!
Di Xiu’s twisted face immediately contorted in disbelief—the sinister grin vanishing, replaced by shock and confusion.
“Impossible!”
This was the thought that echoed in both their minds—on the verge of being shouted aloud.
Yunshi’s expression was even more complex. First shock, then despair, disbelief… and finally, overwhelming joy! His face flushed as though drunk, his eyes wide and gleaming.
In his long life, he had never experienced such a wild surge of emotion.
Because the figure who now slowly emerged from the void—was none other than Jiang Chengxuan!
Even if Di Xiu had never seen him before, he immediately understood who this must be.
It wasn’t Arterial Blood Demon Immortal. It wasn’t Ghostwalker Immortal.
Then the truth was clear.
“Impossible!”
The void fell utterly silent. After a long moment, Di Xiu’s eyes turned bloodshot, and he roared in fury, his smugness shattered.
“You must’ve used some trick to escape them! Right?!”
“Don’t try to fool me! They’ll be back soon, and you’ll all die!”
“This battle belongs to the Arterial Blood Sect! Victory is certain!”
The unhinged roars came one after another, each one more desperate than the last.
Yunshi also turned to look at Jiang Chengxuan, worried there might be truth in those words.
But Jiang merely smiled calmly, meeting Yunshi’s eyes without saying a word.
That expression alone told Yunshi everything—this wasn’t escape. This wasn’t a trick.
He had won.
Having ruled out all other possibilities, no matter how improbable this one seemed, it had to be the truth:
Jiang Chengxuan had defeated both Arterial Blood Demon Immortal and Ghostwalker Immortal in a one-against-two battle!
He had crushed them so completely that they were forced to flee and abandon their dominion!
Even Yunshi could barely believe it—yet it was the only explanation left!
“Still not fleeing? Let’s see what tricks you’ve got left, old ghost!”
Jiang Chengxuan no longer delayed. His immortal power surged, and the phenomenon of a Golden Immortal blazed into being.
In an instant, the dead, silent world turned violent once more. His immense energy roared like a reversed river through the void.
With a flick of his finger, that power was unleashed—crashing through the deep sky as a blazing torrent!
Di Xiu’s eyes narrowed. Snarling, he activated his own decayed dao laws and met the attack head-on.
He was now the one unwilling to yield, scrambling desperately to grasp one last sliver of hope.
How could he be willing to surrender the Arterial Blood Realm, just as it had been placed within reach?
“RUMBLE—!!”
The moment their powers collided, the heavens trembled. The deep void shuddered. Stars shattered in distant space.
Di Xiu felt it immediately—Jiang Chengxuan’s power was suppressing him, pressing him back.
There could be no doubt now. Jiang Chengxuan did possess the strength to defeat the Arterial Blood Demon Immortal!
At least in single combat, he no longer feared even such terrifying opponents.
But Di Xiu’s shock didn’t end there.
Suddenly, golden radiance burst forth from the heavens, illuminating the world like a newborn sun.
Wheel after wheel of golden brilliance floated in the deep void, radiating a divine and oppressive power.
The forbidden might was so profound that even Di Xiu felt a twinge of dread.
It was a terrifying sign—proof that Jiang Chengxuan’s strength was not just real, but deadly, even to Golden Immortals.
“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!!”
“Those two idiots—useless fools!”
No matter how crazed he was, Di Xiu could no longer deny the truth.
He cursed three times in a row, his fury shaking the sky.
And then—his decayed laws and rotting universe manifestation began to retract, dimming and vanishing rapidly.
The very next moment, with no hesitation, Di Xiu’s immortal force exploded outward. Before Jiang Chengxuan could make another move, he ripped open the void—and escaped!
