The Demon Emperor and Ghost Emperor acted simultaneously, each taking a treasure bead.


    The Feather King was dumbfounded and almost cursed out loud. Was it all divided just like that?


    The Feather King also desired a divine artifact, but given the current situation, he couldn''t say a word.


    Because if he spoke now, it would be tantamount to provoking a fight with the Demon n and Ghost Realm.


    The Demon n and Ghost Realm seized the advantage. How could they possibly share it with him? Moreover, Heaven Realm and Buddha Domain''s distribution certainly supports the Demon n and Ghost Realm.


    If he were to contest further at this moment, it would mean making an enemy of everyone.


    The Feather King was no fool; he understood very well that this time, the Feather Realm would suffer a silent loss. Yet, he dared not snatch up again and could only silently swallow his frustration.


    "Since that''s settled, let''s disperse!" The Heavenly Realm Saint smiled gently, "Miss Ye, I always thought your father would be the next saint of the Nine Realms. Unexpectedly, you stepped ahead into the Saint Realm. However, this is timely, as the crisis beyond Heaven shows signs of intensifyingtely. Now that you''ve advanced to the Saint Realm, it''s indeed a joyous asion for the Nine Realms, worthy of celebration!"


    Ye Wantong remained calm: "Thank you, Saint Yuqing, for the auspicious words!"


    "No need for politeness!" The Heavenly Realm Saintughed heartily, "Since everyone is here, three months from now, I n to host a Saint Banquet on the moon, inviting you all to gather, while discussing the matter of the Nine Realms crisis. By then, I hope everyone will honor the invitation!"


    The crowd nodded in agreement, as Saint Yuqing was known for being the most powerful and influential among the saints of the Nine Realms, so naturally, his wordsmanded respect.


    Saint Yuqing smiled and nodded, nced at Su Yang, and softly said, "Su Alliance Leader, I hope you will also join us then!"


    Su Yang was momentarily stunned; why was he being invited to a Saint Banquet?


    Other saints were also puzzled, unsure of what Saint Yuqing meant.


    After a moment''s hesitation, Su Yang nodded: "To receive an invitation from a saint is overwhelming; I will certainly attend!"


    "Excellent!" Saint Yuqing smiled and nodded, said no more, and turned to leave.


    Other saints also left one after another, and soon the Human World returned to peace, all saints departed, leaving only Su Yang and Ye Wantong in the sky.


    Su Yang looked at Ye Wantong; at this moment, he had a sense of realization.


    This time, he thought the Human Realm was doomed, but unexpectedly, this situation urred.


    Ye Wantong suddenly advanced to the Saint Realm, and both the Heavenly Realm and Buddha Domain simultaneously supported the Human Realm,pletely eliminating its crisis.


    Now, the Human Realm is no longer the weakest in strength among the Nine Realms. With the strongest saint of attacking power guarding it,bined with the goodwill from the Heavenly Realm and Buddha Domain, the Human Realm will no longer be threatened by the other Eight Realms!


    Ye Wantong exhaled lightly, withdrew the Heavenly Sword above, and at that moment, all of her Sword Qi receded, as if she became an ordinary person.


    "Brother Yang, you''ve worked hard!" Ye Wantong walked to Su Yang''s side, held his arm, and said softly, "I sensed the battle outside while inside the World Melting Furnace, but could not emerge until I reached the Saint Realm. Fortunately, I did not arrive toote!"


    Su Yang smiled, gazed upon the devastated Human Realm, and sighed: "This is nothing; at least my life has been preserved. Yet, how many people died in this battle for the sake of the Human Realm? There are also many seniors who sacrificed their lives for it!"


    Ye Wantong also sighed. Although she couldn''t leave the World Melting Furnace, she could still sense the situation outside.


    At Qinghe Academy all teachers bravely went to their deaths, Lian Wanxiong fell in battle, countless masters of the Human Realm perished in the fight, including the matter of the Ancestor Dragon''s death in Storm Valley; she knew all about these events. All these matters touched her heart deeply.


    The Human Realm in the Nine Realms has always been the weakest, often eyed by the other Eight Realms. To have persisted until now was only because of the price paid by those seniors with their lives!


    "In any case, from now on, the Human World won''t have to be at the bottom among the Nine Realms anymore!" Su Yang smiled at Ye Wantong and said, "I thought you''d take a while before you could emerge. I didn''t expect you coulde out this soon!"


    "It''s a forced emergence; in truth, I''ve understood less than a thousandth of the Female Sword Saint''s legacy." Ye Wantong replied, "If I continued to seclude myself, it would likely take thousands of years toe out. Moreover, the Female Sword Saint''s legacy bes progressively profound, requiring my personal insight to possibly recreate her former glory. Just relying on seclusion won''t help!"


    Su Yang couldn''t help but feel shocked. Ye Wantong understood less than a thousandth, yet had already advanced to the Saint Realm? If she fully understood it, how powerful would she be?


    "Is the Female Sword Saint''s power so vastly superior to that of a saint?" Su Yang said, bewildered.


    "It''s hard to say…" Ye Wantong pondered, "The realm of the Female Sword Saint and ours are onpletely different levels, making directparison impossible. In reality, saints exist on a ne beyond our current cultivation levels, which is why they can transcend beyond the Nine Realms!"


    "I see!" Su Yang slowly nodded. Though Sub-Saints are strong, at least there''s a chance to defeat them, whereas saints, no amount of Sub-Saintsbined could defeat, transcending this level for that reason.


    However, matters of this level are beyond Su Yang''s understanding. He hasn''t even entered the Sub-Saint Realm, let alone the Saint Realm.


    Su Yang recalled the deaths of Bing Han and Yan Zhi, whom he led to the Demon Abyss, where they left nothing behind after their demise.


    Su Yang had considered consuming their Saint''s Heart, yet the Demon Abyss was even fiercer than Storm Valley.


    Storm Valley shredded their physical forms and Primordial Spirits, including the Saint''s Heart.


    But in the Demon Abyss, everything was absorbed instead. Whether power, Primordial Spirit, or Saint''s Heart, all were drawn away.


    Su Yang knew it was certainly the ck mist within the pce that absorbed all these, including the Saint''s Heart.


    Although Su Yang had cultivated the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book, he had no skill to retrieve the Saint''s Heart from within the ck mist.


    Therefore, despite Su Yang ying four saints, he actually only received Tu Yuan''s fragmented and unshaped Saint''s Heart, which wasrgely divided by illusions, leaving Su Yang with little gain.


    However, even so, Su Yang distinctly felt he had already touched the edge of the Sub-Saint Realm.


    Next, if Su Yang secluded himself for a period, it''s highly possible he will break through to the Sub-Saint Realm, which could be considered the greatest gain from defending the Human Realm this time.
