Watching the similar actions of the two, everyone was once again bewildered, completely unable to understand what these two were up to?

Are they still fighting or not?

Why have they both put away their weapons?

Could it be that a victor has already been determined, but they just didn't see it?

If the outcome has been decided, then why are both of them looking into the distance together?

Incomprehensible, utterly incomprehensible!

The crowd realized that the gap between them and the masters was not just in cultivation, but also in thought and understanding, a significant difference indeed.

Perhaps only masters can comprehend the thoughts of other masters.

"In this duel, you have won. However, if I had not killed Shangguan Yu and Modao Zi, the outcome might not have been this way!"

After a long time, just when everyone was about to fall asleep, the Blood Demon spoke first, breaking the silence above Blood Demon Imperial City.

But... what did this sentence mean?

The Blood Demon killed Modao Zi and Shangguan Yu, allowing his injuries to recover quickly, which should have been more advantageous for his battle with Bai Xiaofan, right?

How could he say that if he hadn't killed Modao Zi and Shangguan Yu, the outcome might not have been the same?

At this moment, everyone felt that their thoughts were being led by Bai Xiaofan and the Blood Demon, and even though they had gone far, they still couldn't understand why they had to take this path!

"The cycle of cause and effect, the causes you plant are the fruits you must harvest, whether sour, sweet, or bitter, it should be so!"

Bai Xiaofan spoke calmly, saying something that left everyone in fog, completely incomprehensible.

"The gates of the immortal realm have opened, my true form will come to find you!"

The Blood Demon turned his head, took a deep look at Bai Xiaofan, and then suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood!

Plop!

A crimson blood splattered into the sky above Blood Demon Imperial City!

This sudden scene terrified everyone below, making them subconsciously retreat, widening their eyes, unable to believe the reality of this moment!

Immediately afterward, the Blood Demon's body began to fall slowly from mid-air.

Thump!

The Blood Demon's body crashed onto the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Amid the swirling dust, everyone's sight was obscured!

"Go!"

Amid the dust came Bai Xiaofan's voice, and then the crowd saw the Blood Demon's body, after hitting the ground, once again fly into the air, heading toward a distant statue!

Everyone's gaze followed the trajectory of the Blood Demon's flight, finally freezing on that statue!

As the dust cleared, Bai Xiaofan in his cyan robe appeared in everyone's vision.

Amidst the blood-red landscape, his figure in cyan appeared so abrupt, yet gave an illusion of being isolated from the world.

"The Blood Demon is dead. Listen, blood demon clan, if you don't wish to die, put down your weapons now, and I, Bai Xiaofan, promise not to kill you!"

Bai Xiaofan stood proudly, his gaze sweeping indifferently over those present, his words echoing in everyone's ears, ensuring each person heard it clearly.

"Alright, I believe you!"

"I also believe you, we'll drop our weapons now!"

As the first person dropped their weapon, the rest of the blood demon clan followed suit, dropping their weapons one after another.

With Shangguan Yu dead, Modao Zi dead, and the Blood Demon also dead, among the experts of the blood demon clan, only Duan Lang remained. Thus, after hearing Bai Xiaofan's words, the blood demon clan no longer hesitated.

If one can live peacefully, who would willingly battle the enemy to death?

Moreover, this is a battle known to be unwinnable!

Bai Xiaofan nodded with satisfaction. Though he didn't consider himself a saint, with hands stained with blood no less than any cultivator, but neither was he one to kill indiscriminately. With the death of the Blood Demon, the blood demon clan also lost the intent to continue their massacre!

Stepping slowly to where Modao Zi and Shangguan Yu had fallen, Bai Xiaofan waved his large hand, causing the five meters between the two to vanish.

"Though you stood as my enemy, after your deaths, by a twist of fate, I comprehended the artistic conception of emotion, allowing me to more effortlessly slay the Blood Demon, that is the cause!"

Bai Xiaofan spoke softly, then waved his large hand again, and the Dragon Sparrow Sword appeared in his grasp.

With it, Bai Xiaofan carved a deep trench beside him with the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

A gentle immortal energy erupted from Bai Xiaofan's palm, enveloping the bodies of the deceased Modao Zi and Shangguan Yu, slowly transporting their now cold bodies into the trench!

"You both having died, I am burying you, sending you on your final journey as the effect!"

"With the cycle of cause and effect, you both can peacefully reincarnate, might not share a bed in life, but share a grave in death, not in vain your love in this life!"

As Bai Xiaofan spoke, he also covered the trench with the earth he had dug, burying Modao Zi and Shangguan Yu!

Then Bai Xiaofan reached out a large hand, and a broken piece of wood flew into his hand, and as his fingers danced, the piece of wood turned into a tombstone inscribed with the names of Modao Zi and Shangguan Yu!

Watching this scene, whether they were from the blood demon clan or the demon clan, tears flowed down their cheeks.

Who can truly be without emotion?

Truly heartless persons are few in this world!

Even someone cultivating the path of heartlessness like Tan Taiqing wouldn't dare claim true heartlessness!

Modao Zi and Shangguan Yu were buried by Bai Xiaofan, alongside several millennia of Shangguan Yu's unwavering infatuation and Modao Zi's to-belatedly realized love for Shangguan Yu!

It is often heard that love is mostly pain!

Perhaps others couldn't understand the word exchange between the Blood Demon and Bai Xiaofan, but Bai Xiaofan, as a party involved, was very clear!

At the moment the Blood Demon slew Shangguan Yu and then also killed Modao Zi, who was seeking death, Bai Xiaofan attained the artistic conception of emotion!

This artistic conception is very subtle, neither solely emotional nor heartless!

However, in battle, it can cunningly evoke the deep-seated emotions in the opponent's heart unexpectedly, thereby affecting the opponent's state of mind!

The artistic conception of emotion, if said to be powerful, is, in fact, quite weak, for it cannot directly serve as an offensive spell like the artistic conception of killing or time.

Yet, if said to be worthless, during battles it can inadvertently influence the opponent's mental state, causing slight errors in their attacks or defenses.

Therefore, this artistic conception of emotion is like a chicken rib — tasteless to eat, yet a pity to discard!

But it was precisely because of this artistic conception of emotion that Bai Xiaofan found it much easier to contend with the Blood Demon than in a normal confrontation.
