Xiang Nan immediately rushed to Son of Heaven Peak to see how the martial practitioners of Son of Heaven Peak were doing.
There were also Xiao He, Yuan Meng, Xiao Jun, Long Xingyun, Xue Ziyan, and the people he cared about the most.
However, when he arrived at the residential area of Son of Heaven Peak, he discovered that the people here were gone, and not a single person could be seen in the entire residential area.
Even the residential area of Ziye Peak was empty.
Xiang Nan frowned deeply. On the way here just now, he didn't see the people from the Son of Heaven Peak and the Mid-night Peak resisting the martial artists of the other world.
Where's everyone?
He directly flew up to Midnight Peak. The previously bustling Midnight Peak was also empty. The mission hall was in a sorry state, and there were many things scattered all over the place.
It was unknown when the quest token fell to the ground, and it was split in half.
He then flew to the temple of the Son of Heaven Peak, where the deacon was.
However, the temple was sparsely populated, with only a few staff members in twos and threes.
"Xiang Bei!" The old deacon saw Xiang Nan at a glance. He quickly walked over and said in shock, "You're still alive!"
Xiang Nan hurriedly asked, "What exactly happened? Did the martial artists of the other world really come?"
Although Xiang Nan had seen this with his own eyes, he still subconsciously couldn't believe it. He only thought that this was a nightmare.
The old man said, "You lived in the void for more than a year? That's impossible, but it would be great if you could come back."
"The warriors from Son of Heaven Peak and Mid-night Peak have been evacuated by the guild. They have gone to the Southern Domain to seek refuge."
"Right now, only our Guild's own disciples are guarding this place."
Xiang Nan's heart sank and he said, "What exactly happened over the past year?"
The old man said, "Don't say so much now. Hurry up and find an opportunity to escape. Flee back to the Southern Domain. This is what the Guild Leader wants."
"Heavenly Star City can no longer be defended. We are currently secretly transporting batches of Guild disciples to the Southern Domain."
"But" Xiang Nan pointed outside and said, "There are still many Guild disciples fighting outside. Why don't you send them away first?"
The old man grabbed Xiang Nan's arm and hurriedly flew towards the underground world. As he flew, he said, "We built a temporary super-large teleportation array on the Shield of Glory."
"Every time, you can teleport 100,000 people, but now that the Profound Sky Sect has firmly controlled the space, the teleportation array is already very unstable. Sometimes, it will only succeed once if you try to teleport ten times."
"I don't know when it will completely lose its effectiveness. Hurry up and leave!"
Xiang Nan shook off the old man's arm and said, "I asked you just now. Where are the disciples who fought against the Otherworldly martial artists? Why didn't you teleport them away?"
The old man's expression was serious, but there was a hesitation and confusion in his eyes. He said, "Because those disciples who fought against the martial artists of the other world were not talented enough."
"We need to preserve the most talented and promising disciples and send them away first."
"How could this be!" Xiang Nan was shocked, "Could it be that a disciple with poor talent deserves to die?"
The old man's eyes turned red as he shouted, "Do you think we are willing? But we are doing this for the future of the world!"
"It's to leave behind the most vigorous fire seed for our martial world!"
"Things have already reached this point." The old man waved his hands and said excitedly, "We have to make a choice! Do you think we won't feel sad when faced with such a choice?"
Xiang Nan was speechless. He didn't know how to refute the old man.
"I know that you have no choice but to do so. I can understand." Xiang Nan's expression darkened as he said, "However, I'm not leaving. I want to stay and fight against the Otherworldly martial artists with them."
"Damn it!" The old man grabbed Xiang Nan's collar and shouted, "Look at your own realm! In just over a year, you have risen from the second level of Fortune to the fifth level of Fortune!"
"If you die here, it will be meaningless!"
"If you can go back to the Southern Domain to recover your strength and fight again in the future, the strength you can unleash alone will be able to defeat a hundred people!"
"But" Xiang Nan turned around and looked at the disciples of the Guild in the sky. He really couldn't bear it.
The old man shouted, "Should you consider your personal feelings or the future of our world at this time?"
Xiang Nanru was struck by lightning.
He knew that now, it was time for him to make a choice.
It was to continue to act as impulsively as before, regardless of everything, regardless of the cost, to be willful.
It was still for the sake of the overall situation and preserving one's strength.
"When it's time to make a decision, you must do it!" The old man's expression was serious as he roared, "Many times, sacrifices are inevitable!"
Xiang Nan finally let out a long sigh and said, "I'll go with you."
The old man immediately pulled on Xiang Nan and flew into the underground world where the Shield of Light was.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" The old man kept saying, "The next wave of teleportation will start soon. We must catch up and send you in."
When the two entered the underground world, they discovered that there was a huge circular teleportation array at the foot of the mountain where the Sacred Mountain was located.
At this moment, the teleportation array was already filled with people, but the faces of those people were filled with panic and uncertainty.
Outside the teleportation array, an elder shouted loudly, "Now, let's make the thirteenth teleportation attempt!"
Thirteenth time?
Xiang Nan's heart sank. He had actually tried thirteen teleportation attempts. Haven't they succeeded yet?
Thus, Xiang Nan also understood why those people standing on the teleportation array had such panicked expressions.
"Wait!" The old deacon stretched out his hand and shouted, "Stop! Put Xiang Bei inside!"
"Xiang Bei?" Everyone turned around at the same time and looked towards Xiang Nan.
Their eyes were filled with shock and confusion.
Almost everyone in the guild knew that Xiang Nan had already gone to the Void Realm in an attempt to destroy the plans of the Profound Sky Sect. However, he had not heard from anyone for more than a year. Everyone thought that he had died long ago.
I didn't expect that at such a time, I would suddenly hear Xiang Bei's name again.
However, it was still too late for the old man to shout.
To activate such a large teleportation array, one had to gather their strength in advance, and they needed to advance by a certain amount.
When the old man shouted, in fact, the teleportation array had already started to operate.
At this moment, the teleportation array suddenly flashed with light!
Success! The elders outside the teleportation array were overjoyed. Their fourteenth attempt had succeeded!
On the other hand, Tian Zifeng's old deacon was stunned. He was still unable to catch up and send Xiang Nan inside.
But then, in the next moment, a scene that caused everyone to feel incomparably desperate occurred.
The 100,000 disciples who were teleported away suddenly appeared again!
They did not appear on the teleportation array, but instead appeared in the sky, one by one embedded in space!
Some people had their upper bodies exposed, while the lower half was in the void. Others had their upper bodies exposed, while the lower half moved forward in the void.
A large number of spatial cracks appeared in the air.
He could only see countless disciples being thrown farther and farther away in the boundless black void!
They waved their hands in despair, trying to fly back to the human world. However, their efforts were futile. All they did was turn into specks of dust in the endless void.
