Book 7: Chapter 1: We Are Really In Love With Each Other
On the eastern land, a single light stream flew and collided with several other light streams in the sky.
The energy poured on the earth carried a certain kind of poison. After it spread, the animals and plants within a few acres of land would wither.
That was the divine power radiated when a god fought with another god, which made the earth and sky disturbed.
Suddenly, the single stream of light that used her own strength against the other gods finally couldn’t hold it. She let out a muffled groan, then fell from the sky and transformed back to Jiang Lan, staggering back a few steps.
She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. Her face was pale, and she looked up at the sky. The light streams that chased her also landed on the ground, turning into a group of tall gods wearing silver armor and holding various weapons.
The leading god raised a wooden whip in his hand, point to Jiang Lan, and said:
“Goddess of Plague and Poison, you have nowhere to go, sundered now! His Majesty has issued an order. Looking at the thin face of Marshal Bai, we can wait for him to come back before punishing you. Your punishment will be lessened.”
“My punishment will be lessened?”
Jiang Lan sneered coldly.
“You are talking as if the Eastern Emperor Taiyi will spare my life.”
“Shut up!”
The deity shouted loudly:
“Why do you disobey His Majesty like this? Just for the sake of a group of mortals? Are you worthy of Marshal Bai who loves you so much? You are hurting his future!”
“You arrogant guys don’t understand him at all.”
Jiang Lan smiled and said:
“Hurting his future? When he comes back, seeing what you have done, he will kill all of you!”
“Marshal Bai is loyal to His Majesty, how can he be as rebellious as you?!”
The god arrogantly raised the long whip in his hand.
“Let’s give up resistance, Goddess of Plague and Poison. Being hit by this scourge, the divine power in your body has been stripped. To be honest, I’m really surprised that you can hold on for so long with the divine power remaining in your body, but you are exhausted of divine power by now. What can a god who has lost his divine power do?”
“Hmph, I’ve heard of your name, Huangtian Divine General, a god who rose to fame two thousand years ago. You have been aiming for the seat of my husband, haven’t you?”
Jiang Lan said coldly:
“At the beginning, I thought it was such a terrific person, but now I look at it, it’s just a dog with a magic weapon in his hand and a majestic prestige. A dog is still a dog. In this life, you will never be able to surpass him, as a dog will never be able to surpass a human.”
“Presumptuous!”
Huangtian Divine General glared with anger, the whip in his hand was shining brightly, and he slashed towards Jiang Lan.
——————-
After putting all the survivors and remnants of the seaside settlement into the picture, Bai Qiuran continued.
Although he didn’t know how long it has been since he entered the Guixu, it seemed that Eastern Emperor Taiyi, for an unknown reason, has already sent his subordinates to clear the human race. If that’s the case, those human settlements on the eastern land could hardly escape the same fate. Bai Qiuran has some worries about his disciple, and he was even more worried about Jiang Lan.
After several years of getting along, Bai Qiuran already knew the girl very well, and she was ashamed of her identity as a god in her heart.
With Jiang Lan’s character, if Li’s settlement was also attacked by the gods, then she would definitely take action to protect them, and she would inevitably conflict with the gods at that time.
But her most powerful authority over the sea has been refined into the Tranquil Autumn Water in Bai Qiuran’s hands, so Bai Qiuran was very worried about her safety.
After dealing with the human race in the settlement by the sea, he immediately rushed to Li’s settlement without stopping.
Along the way, he dealt with several teams of gods who were slaughtering humans. After he included the survivors and souls in the painting, Bai Qiuran came to the vicinity of his shrine, which was not far from Li’s settlement.
“What is that?”
On the way back, Bai Qiuran, who was flying with all his sword, suddenly caught a bright light from the corner of his eyes.
It seemed to be some kind of divine power, but Bai Qiuran had never seen that kind of nature.
“If something goes wrong, there must be a reason.”
Wise Immortal suggested:
“To be sure, go and take a look.”
Time was running out, thus Bai Qiuran didn’t talk nonsense, turned, and flew over immediately. When he was still dozens of miles away from that place, he saw the source of the bright light in the sky.
It was a tall divine general, the light came from the wooden whip held high in his hand, behind him were several gods of the same size, and opposite him, a little girl in a purple dress was falling to the ground — Jiang Lan.
“Stop!”
Bai Qiuran opened his eyes wide, and Tranquil Autumn Water hummed under his feet. He passed dozens of miles in an instant, suddenly falling between Jiang Lan and the divine general.
The sudden sword aura set off a huge explosion, and a crack spanning hundreds of miles appeared directly between the divine general and Jiang Lan, preventing the divine general’s attack.
But at the same time, Bai Qiuran himself was once again blocked out of the world by Heaven.
“That’s it.”
Across the boundary of black and white, Bai Qiuran looked at Jiang Lan on the side of the main world. The god in front of her experienced the attack just now. He was a little surprised, but after looking around and not finding the attacker, he picked up the wooden whip and slashed towards Jiang Lan again.
“She died in the established history, so you want her to die too… Unfortunately, I don’t care anymore.”
The True Qi in his body exploded together, Bai Qiuran raised his hand, and a palm blasted on the boundary of the world!
The whole world was trembling, and the boundary of the world in front of Bai Qiuran was shattered. He reappeared in the main world, flash over a distance of tens of miles, and came to Jiang Lan.
boom!
The wooden whip gleaming with divine light hit his back, and after a muffled noise, it bounced back.
“Marshal Bai?!”
A voice of astonishment sounded. Seeing Bai Qiuran, the god would subconsciously take two steps back, and then smiled:
“Why are you here?”
Bai Qiuran first pulled Jiang Lan up, checked her injuries, and confirmed that she was not in danger for the time being, then turned around and responded:
“You said why did I come? You are going to kill my wife, what do you expect me to do?”
“This… Marshal Bai, you don’t know the whole story.”
This god showed a distressed expression and replied:
“Goddess of Plague and Poison, for a group of human races, disobeyed the emperor’s order and rebelled in public. Our brothers have suffered a lot of casualties, and she is now a guilty god.”
“Well, so what?”
Bai Qiuran asked:
“She just killed a few gods, isn’t she still my wife?”
“Marshal Bai, you have a deep relationship with the Goddess of Plague and Poison, and we all see it, but she is no longer worthy of you. Her divine powers have been seized by this treasure, and she has rebelled against the Emperor and become a traitor.”
The divine general pulled his face down and said coldly:
“This god would like to advise you, you can find beauties everywhere in the world, so you’d better not have anything to do with her, otherwise, you will not be able to protect yourself… Besides, frankly speaking, you two were just a political marriage matched by His Majesty the Emperor. You have a great future, why are you so persistent?”
“To say that political marriage is really hurtful.”
Bai Qiuran held Jiang Lan’s waist and let her lean on him, and then smiled kindly at the divine general:
“We are really in love with each other.”
