“Purple energy?”

The light suddenly turned purple and surprised Jing Dajiang and others.

This was not normal.

At that moment, Bi Zhu supported the pale-faced Chu Jie and looked up at the sky. They saw the red sun rising from the East, but the crimson morning glow was replaced by purple light.

The stars in the sky seemed to sense something, and they gradually calmed down.

Bi Zhu stood dumbfounded in place. ‘Purple…’

“Purple energy?” Chu Jie seemed to recall something.

She Imew someone was about to make a move.

Even Mr. Tao, who was on the run, was bewildered by the sunrise turning purple.

“What is that”‘ Tang Ya asked.

“Someone may be trying to retrieve those two pearls,” Mr. Tao said calmly.

Using the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl and the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl was easy but retrieving them was extremely difficult.

Jing Dajiang and others didn’t make a move because the appearance of the purple energy was unexpected.

After a moment, as the sun rose in the East, the purple energy soared into the sky.

The purple energy arrived from the East and covered a distance of thirty thousand miles.

It pierced through the clouds and enveloped the two pearls.

In the next instant, the two pearls disappeared.

The terrifying beings that had frightened countless people disappeared just like that.

The sky returned to normal, and there was nothing covering the sky.

Jing Dajiang and others were stunned.

“Is it over?”

They had intended to go all out. It was a false alarm.

Many people lacked the confidence to face it.

At that moment, the vortex of fate gathered once again. Then, it exploded.

The fortune merged into the West.

There was no more vortex.

It seemed that the ancient grudge had been resolved.

Everyone stood still.

It was too fast and too strange like a fever dream.

Meanwhile, Jiang Hao on the hillside looked at the jade pendant in his hand and couldn’t help but sigh.

The pendant was fading slowly.

In his other hand, he held two purple pearls.

One was the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, and the other was the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl.

Jiang Hao could release them, but he couldn’t control them or retrieve them.

So, he had to seek help from Hong Yuye.

Hong Yuye blessed him with purple energy and crossed the high heavens to reclaim the two pearls.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared to pull a stunt like this.

What he had done was just an attempt to disrupt the vortex of fate.

Who would have thought it would cause such a commotion?

A slight mistake could have led to his own destruction with the eruption of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl.

“I shouldn’t get involved in such things in the future.”

He had been lucky this time, but he might end up dead the next time especially with The End of All Things trying to cause havoc everywhere.

Why were they so crazy?

Jiang Hao bowed to Hong Yuye. “Thank you, Senior.”

“The air in the West has been tainted by you a lot,” Hong Yuye said indifferently.

Jiang Hao silently brewed a cup of September Spring.

Hong Yuye took a sip. He propped her chin on her hand and closed her eyes.

Jiang Hao took out a book and began reading.

He was reading the nameless manual.

This time, he didn’t use Clear and Pure Heart, but it was still enough for him to understand more of the contents of the book.

Maybe he could sense such things because of the jade pendant.

He felt that something was about to happen in the Jianxin Cliff.

Hong Yuye didn’t wake up.

Jiang Hao hesitated. Then, he decided not to wake her.

He focused on reading.

Three days passed just like that.

Jiang Hao felt it even more now. He knew that the Sage’s Pages were about to manifest.

The Sage’s Pages likely recorded the most crucial aspects of the era.

Everyone wanted to take a look at it.

Jiang Hao was curious as well, but he knew he couldn’t compete with others.

If Hong Yuye was present, she might intervene at a critical moment.

He wouldn’t have many chances.

For now, it was better to not do anything.

At night, Jiang Hao felt spiritual energy surging in the distance.

A powerful impact woke Hong Yuye from her sleep.

She glanced at the tea, took a sip, and then looked in the distance.

“The Sage’s Pages are out?” she asked.

“Yes.” Jiang Hao put down the book in his hand.

“Let’s go and take a look.” Hong Yuye got up. Jiang Hao nodded and followed her closely.

They disappeared from their place.

With Hong Yuye leading the way, they moved at a speed Jiang Hao couldn’t comprehend.

After half a day, he and Hong Yuye appeared in front of a village.

The village seemed deserted.

“Mountain Village” was carved on a large rock outside the village entrance. Jiang Hao suddenly remembered the village from Zhang’s memories.

The village only had stone statues left.

It was abandoned.

Too much time had passed.

After that, he walked in and found an old man crouched in a corner. He was eating something.

Seeing Jiang Hao approaching, he instinctively covered the dirty food in front of his chest.

Jiang Hao didn’t disturb him. He just nodded and continued ahead.

On the way, he found four people.

Each one struggled to survive, just like the first old man he had seen.

No matter how difficult it was, nobody wanted to die.

Clearly, these people were innocent and wanted just to survive another day. The End of All Things was hell-bent on destroying everything, even people like these.

Shaking his head, Jiang Hao climbed up the hill and found a grave. It was an ordinary grave.

Wild grasses had covered it.

The inscriptions on the tombstone were already worn with time.

Jiang Hao cleared away the weeds. He then wiped the tombstone with a piece of cloth.

After that, he took out an incense and lit it. He then placed it gently in front of the grave.

He didn’t say anything but watched quietly.

After waiting for some time, he turned and left.

At that moment, a middle-aged man appeared at the Jianxin Cliff. He looked down and seemed to be lost in thought.

Opposite him, Lou Mantian also looked below. He ate spirit stones slowly.

There was also an old man sitting under a tree.

The three of them didn’t talk. They just waited patiently.

Just then, footsteps sounded behind them. The three looked in the direction of the footsteps.

They saw an ordinary young man with an ordinary woman. They casually walked toward the cliff.

It looked as though the two people were out on a casual stroll. However, as they arrived, the cliff shook and some aura affected the surrounding space.

The three people were surprised. They saw purple energy condensed around them.

In an instant, the three people realized who the newcomers were..
