"How dare you!"

The mysterious voice seemed to be angry, and it used even more power to stop the descending palm. However, he was no match for the palm. Even if he had used all his strength, he would not have been able to stop the giant palm from destroying the city.

Bang ?

This world-shaking sound came from the location of the Cloud Sky City and spread out in all directions. The frightening remnant might brought along a hundred-meter-tall wave of air, sweeping away the dust and dirt in the sky, and sending them flying in all directions.

The entirety of the five Heavenly Cities felt this massive tremor, as if the entire world was being destroyed. Even thousands of kilometers away, he could feel the tremors from this giant hand.

Jiang Yang, who was still in the air, was hit by the debris. In the blink of an eye, he was hit down by the debris. The bloody Jiang Yang crawled up from the ground, a dense killing intent rising from his eyes. The baleful saber and the ghost spirit on his back continuously jumped about, as if they could sense Jiang Yang's emotions and wanted to break free from their scabbard.

But even so, Jiang Yang didn't stop and continued running in the direction of the Cloud Sky City like a madman. He hadn't noticed at all that a rock had scratched his thigh, even exposing his ghastly white bones. Blood flowed all over the ground, but Jiang Yang didn't feel any pain at all.

In the sky, the dark clouds had completely scattered. A torrential downpour was pouring down, washing over Jiang Yang's body.

Ten miles! Seven miles! Three miles!

Finally! In less than a quarter of an hour, Jiang Yang had covered more than fifty miles.

A pile of rubble appeared before Jiang Yang's eyes. The giant hand disappeared, as did the Cloud Sky City. The spatial rift in the sky had already closed.

What was left behind was Jiang Yang, who had lost her soul, and a lifeless Cloud Sky City.

Suddenly, Jiang Yang heard a sound. It was the sound of a person. Jiang Yang rushed over and flipped over a large stone board. Underneath the stone board, a Qi Condensation cultivator stretched his hand towards Jiang Yang, half-dead. He hoped that Jiang Yang would be able to help him escape this predicament.

Jiang Yang's almost shattered heart once again had a sliver of a chance to recover when he saw this scene.

The power of the mysterious man who had stopped the giant palm had worked. It had offset most of the force. Otherwise, the Cloud Sky City would not have had any chance of survival under that kind of attack.

Jiang Yang dripped a drop of his blood on the wound and injected some power into it.

This was a blood-related spirit art, a secret technique for finding people. There was no requirement for one's cultivation realm. It was a method that almost all practitioners knew how to use.

Following the guidance of the drop of blood floating in front of Jiang Yang, at a place near the border of Cloud Sky City's city walls, Jiang Yang saw two familiar figures in the midst of a pile of ruins.

"Father!"

Jiang Yang couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears. In almost an instant, he had rushed to the side of the two bodies.

The small portion of his body that was revealed in the ruins belonged to Jiang Zhaoyang and Jiang Quan Hu. Jiang Yang tried his best to dig out all the rocks and wood around them. By the time Jiang Zhaoyang and Jiang Quan Hu's bodies had appeared in front of Jiang Yang, his hands were already dripping with blood from all kinds of sharp debris.

Blood and rainwater flowed down from Jiang Yang's hands, dyeing Jiang Zhaoyang and Jiang Quan Hu's clothes red.

"Father ?" Second brother ? Wake up! Wake up! "

Jiang Yang hugged Jiang Quan Hu and half of Jiang Zhaoyang's body as he sat amidst the ruins, crying his heart out like a child. The torrential downpour was like many sharp blades that struck Jiang Yang's body. It was clearly about to become hot, yet it made people feel chills and Jiang Yang's body trembled non-stop.

"Cough cough cough ?"

A few coughs shattered this desolate scene.

"Father!" Are you awake? I'm Jiang Yang! "

Jiang Yang heard the coughing sound coming from his chest and immediately looked down. However, Jiang Zhaoyang did not wake up. It was Jiang Quan Hu who opened his eyes.

"I didn't expect that... At this moment, the first person I see isn't my father, nor is it the Supreme Elder, nor is it someone from the family. To think that it would be you, Jiang Yang ? "

Jiang Quan Hu said dispiritedly to Jiang Yang.

"Stop talking, your injuries are more important now."

At this moment, Jiang Yang was only concerned about Jiang Quan Hu, he did not want Jiang Quan Hu to die. In this world, although Jiang Quan Hu had bullied him at every turn ever since he had become sensible, there was still kinship between them. Jiang Quan Hu's hatred towards him had not reached the point where he wanted Jiang Yang dead.

In the past three years, it was not because he wanted to torture Jiang Yang. Rather, it was because he could not bear to kill him.

The blood was too thick.

"It's useless. Today, I am definitely going to die. Father's injuries are likely even heavier than mine. "If it wasn't for father protecting me with all of his strength, there might have been a chance for him to survive ?"

Jiang Quan Hu's voice became weaker and weaker, and his eyes were almost closed.

"Jiang Yang, don't hate father. All the time, he was doing this to protect you. Even though he doesn't seem to think of you as a disciple of the family, he has been keeping an eye on you for the past few years.

The Grand Elder has tried to attack you countless times, but was blocked by father every single time. "

Jiang Quan Hu spoke the truth to Jiang Yang, and tears started to flow from his eyes.

"Jiang Yang, although I've always hated you. It's not that you're a fiend, it's just that I'm jealous of the attention you got from your father because of your existence. I was wrong... I've always been wrong.

How I wish I could go back to when I was young, when you and I were chasing dragonflies by the pond, and accidentally fell to the edge of the pond, the three of us fought a day of mud battles together.

I am really stupid. It is only now that I realize that I have always hoped to get along well with you, like a brother ? Jiang Yang, I don't have the strength to call you again. At the last moment, I can ? I'll call you again ? "A younger brother?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yang couldn't stop sobbing. He tried his best to hold back the sobs as he reluctantly said this.

"Okay ?" "Alright..." "Second brother ?"

"Bro ?"

Jiang Quan Hu raised his hand, wanting to touch Jiang Yang's face. With the words' little brother ', his hand fell down heavily halfway.

"No!"

Jiang Yang tightly held onto Jiang Quan Hu and Jiang Zhaoyang's bodies. The heartache he felt was akin to being slashed by ten thousand blades, causing blood and flesh to flow from the blades.

Jiang Yang stayed beside Jiang Zhaoyang and Jiang Quan Hu's bodies for a full two hours. In the end, the two of them still hadn't woken up. The crashing rain stopped around Jiang Yang. The space beside Jiang Yang seemed to have been frozen. His hair had turned white at this moment, and strands of long grey hair were revealed from his black hair.
