Chapter 646 - 653: The Collapse of Gong Ye’s Beliefs

’Aren’t transmigrators supposed to be one of a kind?’

’Even if there are other transmigrators, there shouldn’t be many, right? But from the way Song Wanning talks, it’s like transmigrators are a dime a dozen.’

Gong Ye’s conviction wavered once again.

But Song Wanning’s next words struck him like a sledgehammer to the chest.

"I’ve already run into some in the Lower World. After I ascended, I met a few more."

"But you’re more outstanding than they were, which is why you’re not dead yet."

"As for that ’system’ you mentioned, I’ve seen one of those too. It’s just that it was destroyed long ago."

Song Wanning’s smile was gentle, as if she were praising Gong Ye. "Your final destination is all the same."

"Invaders... all of you deserve to die!"

"And my mission is to eradicate invaders like you."

She tilted her head, her eyes filled with composure.

Gong Ye’s face, however, turned deathly pale in an instant.

"Impossible!!!"

He was filled with denial, completely unwilling to believe the reality Song Wanning described.

’He was supposed to be a proud, favored son of heaven. After all, the rewards he reaped after every setback proved he was no ordinary person.’

But Song Wanning called them invaders.

She had even killed many invaders.

This fact dealt a massive blow to Gong Ye’s perception of reality.

Nearby, Li Qingya was so stunned she couldn’t even process it. ’If I understood correctly, Gong Ye isn’t from this world?’

’And Song Wanning is someone who specifically hunts them...’

’No wonder the Heavenly Dao protects Song Wanning.’

’It all made sense now.’

Li Qingya was profoundly shaken, and in that moment, she was filled with immense regret.

’If she had known this, she would never have gotten involved with Gong Ye, no matter what.’

’Gong Ye was destined to be abandoned by the Heavenly Dao. Being with him had definitely affected her own fortune.’

’Her survival itself was now in question!!!’

Li Qingya was furious with herself. ’I never should have been tempted by his good looks. Now I’ve backed myself into a corner.’

’No, she absolutely could not be associated with Gong Ye any longer.’

’The moment those two start fighting, she would leave immediately and never appear before Song Wanning again.’

"Gong Ye, haven’t you noticed? Ever since you met me, you’ve been running into bad luck again and again,"

Song Wanning no longer wished to hide it.

’She had always hated these invaders. Hated them with a passion.’

The dazed Gong Ye was struck by another jolt, and his eyes instantly turned red.

"Impossible!!! Impossible!!!"

"I get it now. You’re deliberately trying to shatter my Dao Heart, aren’t you?"

Gong Ye said, as if clutching at straws.

At this point, he wasn’t afraid of losing to Song Wanning; he was afraid of accepting this reality.

’The one who was once a Heavenly Dao’s Son had suddenly become a so-called invader, a castaway of the Heavenly Dao...’

All his pride was shattered in an instant, lying in irreparable pieces.

"Is that so? Haven’t you already understood the truth in your own heart?"

Song Wanning didn’t deny her intentions.

The reason she revealed the truth was to make Gong Ye lose his composure.

"Why bother lying to yourself?"

Her light words completely shattered Gong Ye’s conviction.

He suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha—"

"Hahaha—"

"How ironic! How utterly ironic!!"

As he laughed, his expression became maniacal.

His already unsteady Dao Heart completely collapsed.

The aura around him began to change violently. His robes and hair billowed in all directions, though there was no wind.

His gaze turned sharp, his eyes already bloodshot as he stared fixedly at Song Wanning.

"So what if I’m an invader? The others died because they were too stupid."

"I’m not like them!"

Even at a time like this, Gong Ye was still insisting on his own uniqueness.

It was clear how much this mattered to him.

Song Wanning’s eyes also grew dangerous. She reached out her hand, and her Longsword instantly materialized in her firm grasp.

The aura around her surged in an instant, and even the surrounding trees began to tremble.

"Gong Ye, today, you will die!"

"There is no other possibility!"

She pointed the tip of her sword at Gong Ye, her killing intent as sharp as a blade as it rushed toward him.

"Then I’d like to see if you truly have the skill to back that up."

Gong Ye sneered.

"Today, either you die or I die!"

"Or we’ll both be destroyed together!"

He had never wanted to kill someone as much as he did right now!

’Song Wanning was as good as dead.’

"Then bring it on!"

Utterly fearless, Song Wanning brandished her Longsword and charged at Gong Ye.

The two of them erupted in an instant, launching attacks at each other.

Li Qingya stood to the side, and her heart sank as she witnessed the scene.

Song Wanning and Gong Ye unleashed their ultimate techniques right from the start. The ground instantly shook, the mountains swayed, and all the birds and beasts scattered.

The sight terrified her.

’To think she had fantasized about killing someone like that with her devious tricks—it was pure wishful thinking.’

Li Qingya’s eyes darted. Not daring to linger a moment longer, she quietly began to retreat.

However, just as the thought arose, an Array suddenly sprang up around her, trapping her instantly.

Li Qingya’s expression changed drastically. In a panic, she immediately attacked the Array, desperately trying to break out.

But the Array was as unshakeable as a mountain; she couldn’t break it at all.

"Song Wanning, you went back on your word!!"

She roared, glaring with fire in her eyes at Song Wanning, who was currently fighting Gong Ye.

"I already brought you here as you asked! What more do you want?"

’If the Array wasn’t removed, she would be trapped here.’

’No matter who won in the end, her only fate was death. How could she not be frantic?’

’She was dying of anxiety!’

But Song Wanning didn’t even spare her a glance, her voice cold as she said, "I never said I would let you go."

From beginning to end, she had never made such a promise.

’How could she possibly spare someone who raised monsters?’

’Truly wishful thinking.’

"Song Wanning!!!"

Li Qingya’s composure shattered. She had already brought Song Wanning to Gong Ye, and Song Wanning dared to trick her!

"You dare trick me! I’ll fight you to the death!"

At that moment, she knew she only had one path left: help Gong Ye kill Song Wanning.

’Then, she could use her method of raising monsters to make Gong Ye compromise and spare her life.’

But just as she was about to act, she remembered the previous Heavenly Punishment. All her fighting spirit deflated in an instant, and her Spiritual Energy fell into chaos.

In that instant, she was overcome with despair.

"Song Wanning... you..."

She was truly on the verge of tears.

’Song Wanning was simply unkillable. This was an inescapable trap.’

Li Qingya landed back on the ground in despair and began attacking the Array.

Like a madwoman, she desperately hammered at the Array.

’This was her only hope.’

’As long as she could break the Array, she would have a chance of survival.’

’She couldn’t give up. She absolutely couldn’t.’

But how could Song Wanning possibly give her that chance?

With a flash of light, a clone suddenly separated from Song Wanning’s main body and flew toward Li Qingya.

A chill shot down Li Qingya’s spine. Without a second thought, she spun around and slashed fiercely with her sword.
