Long Chen left, and Ruixia Prefecture became a wild wasteland. Apart from fragments of the Great Brahma Heaven's statues, there were almost no traces of any buildings.
Long Chen's strike of the world-destroying lightning nearly reduced all the remaining buildings in Ruixia Prefecture to dust.
Ruixia Prefecture was truly magnificent. Because of Long Chen alone, it had turned into a wasteland. The Saint Pill Hall stood here for tens of millions of years without falling, and now even the Brahma Divine Statue had been shattered.
The demon beast clan's billions of powerful warriors, the tens of millions of followers and alchemists of the Sacred Pill Hall were all killed. Long Chen alone nearly destroyed an entire era of the Tiandu Star Domain.
Only the powerful members of the Avian clan wore expressions of lingering fear. They were lucky; otherwise, like the other races, they would have been wiped out as well.
What they didn't know was that their luck was all carefully calculated—Long Chen had given them a way out.
Fortunately, the old clan leader of the Thunder Falcon clan was clever enough to avoid dragging the Avian clan into the final conflict. Moreover, the words the clan leader scolded Long Chen was actually a sarcastic remark.
The once glorious Sacred Pill Hall now had only three people—no, two and a half left—because the Hall Master of the Sacred Pill Hall could only be considered half a person.
The two deputy hall masters of the Saint Pill Hall looked grim. Now that the statues had been destroyed and they had lost the ability to communicate with the Brahma Divine Venerable, they could only take the hall masters and leave for other star domains to quickly report the matter to their superiors.
After the Hall Master of the Saint Pill Hall left, the others dispersed with gloomy expressions. The clan leader of the Lei Sun clan cursed and ordered everyone to carry Lei Yun'er's "corpse" away.
Returning to the Thunder Falcon clan, without needing healing, Lei Yun'er slowly woke up. Upon waking, she burst into tears and shouted, "
Why did you kill me?"
Her memories only lingered at the moment Long Chen attacked her; she knew nothing about what happened afterward.
Only after the old clan leader told her everything in detail did Lei Yun'er finally break into a smile through her tears.
Suddenly, she noticed that at some point, a ring had appeared on her finger.
Opening the ring, Lei Yun'er exclaimed in surprise—there were tens of thousands of Thunder Spirit Blood Soul Pills inside, all top-grade spirit pills.
When the clan leader and the senior members of the Thunder Falcon clan saw these pills, they were all stunned. For them, this was an enormous fortune.
"There's still a note." said an elder of the Thunder Falcon tribe.
Opening the note, she saw that it was indeed left by Long Chen, with some instructions for Lei Yun'er.
In fact, during the tribulation, he had set two goals: one was to eliminate the Eighth Prince of the Mammoth Divine Elephant clan, and the other was to kill the Hall Master of the Saint Pill Hall.
But Long Chen knew that killing a Hall Master was extremely difficult. He didn't hold out much hope. The reason he targeted Lei Yun'er was because he feared that the Saint Pill Hall would cause trouble for the Lei Sun clan afterward.
If Long Chen knew that with the final strike of the thunder tribulation, he could destroy the statue barrier, perhaps he wouldn't have to bother making such a move.
After all, in such a vast Sacred Pill Hall, only two and a half people remained, and those two and a half didn't know how to bear the anger from above, so they had no mood to cause trouble for others.
In short, Long Chen had planned all the backup plans for Lei Yun'er, and in the end, he reminded her that in the human world, there is something called love.
Love is the foundation of a man and a woman's union. Love should be an emotion without any purpose or expecting anything in return, not just to be together to produce strong offspring.
So he was very grateful for Rae Yoon-ah's favor, but couldn't accept her kindness and eventually apologized.
Lei Yun'er half understood Long Chen's words, clutching the note and crying loudly. She only knew that Long Chen didn't want to have children with her.
"Yoona, don't cry. The human race is closer to the Heavenly Dao, and our emotions are something we can't quite understand.
But it's okay. As long as you cultivate hard and comprehend more of the Heavenly Dao, maybe you'll understand what human love really is.
By then, you'll understand Long Chen's heart—maybe he'll change his mind and have a child with you.
So, now is not the time to be sad. You must work hard to cultivate, strengthen yourself, and lead the entire Thunder Falcon clan forward. The old clan leader of the Thunder Falcon clan said.
This old man was a rare figure with wisdom among the beast clan. Fearing Lei Yun'er might get stuck in a rut and delay her cultivation, he first painted a grand picture for her.
It should be noted that Lei Yun'er gained an astonishing reward from this heavenly tribulation; both her flesh and soul underwent earth-shaking changes. It can be said that, aside from Long Chen, Lei Yun'er benefited the most from this tribulation.
Perhaps Lei Yun'er benefited even more from the beast prodigies, but these people were already dead. As long as Lei Yun'er advanced to Realm King, the Lei Falcon clan would become the overlords of the Tiandu Star Domain.
"Alright, I want to work my cultivation. I'll only have children with him." Lei Yun'er clenched her fists and solemnly set a grand goal after hearing the old clan leader's words.
...
"Whoosh!"
Space trembled. Long Chen appeared in a wild land, surrounded by endless deserts, barren and desolate. Long Chen appeared in the desert, accompanied by the woman who had transformed from the core of the star domain.
The woman looked at Long Chen and said, "I really have to thank you this time. This is the boundary of the Tiandu Star Domain. If you follow this direction and pass through the boundary wall, you can enter the Tianyan Star Domain where you are. Oh, right." "
Splash..."
The woman waved her jade-like hand, and countless weapons, brocade boxes, rare medicines, bone books, and other items appeared, piling up into a small mountain.
Long Chen was shocked. All those weapons were actually king-level artifacts, and the golden spear of the Eighth Prince of the Mammoth Divine Elephant Clan was among them.
"You've helped me so much, and I can't give you much. I'm sure these things will be useful to you.
When Ruixia Prefecture fell, I helped you collect all these things to avoid being destroyed by the heavenly tribulation. I have nothing on my own, so I hope you won't mind." The woman said a little embarrassedly.
"How could I dislike them? To me, these things are priceless. Thank you so much."
How could Long Chen possibly dislike it? These are all supreme treasures—king-level divine weapons, numbering over ten thousand. Some are stored in the Sacred Pill Hall's inventory, while others are ownerless divine weapons buried in the ground after their owners died. She had collected them all. Long Chen had really made a huge profit this time.
But there were too many treasures, and Long Chen didn't have time to sort them out. He could only store them all at once in the chaotic space. He thanked the woman again. Previously, Long Chen had thought that all the treasures in Ruixia Trading Company were about to be destroyed, which made him feel especially heartbroken. Now, it was clear none of it was wasted.
Seeing Long Chen so excited, the woman was also very happy. After waving goodbye to him, she disappeared into the world.
Long Chen was full of pride, humming a tune as he dashed off in the direction the woman pointed.
