In Jessica's home in North America...
Jessica's father was watching television nervously, occasionally searching online about the latest news concerning the Commanders.
It was a pity that ever since the great explosion in the extreme north and the battle in the desert, no other news had arrived.
Beside him, Jessica's younger brother continued, "It's over, it's all over. With the nine Commanders' besieging him, this Fang Xingjian is doomed. However, we'll be implicated as well. What is this?"
The countenance of Jessica's father became more grim. There was no way he would have expected that this time around, the Commanders would react so intensely. The nine Commanders came pressing down with such a great momentum. Neither did he expect that Fang Xingjian would be so unyielding, choosing to take the initiative to retaliate.
At that moment, footsteps rang out. The family of three turned their heads only to see that Jessica had appeared in the room unknowingly.
She had naturally came rushing over to save her parents. After all, although she had no idea what Fang Xingjian's goals were, she knew that there would probably be consecutive great battles that were coming. Therefore, Jessica had came to bring her parents away for fear that they would be implicated.
Jessica's father cried out in surprise, "Jessica!"
Her younger brother and mother also looked over, but her younger brother raged, "You still dare to come? Do you know that you've gotten us into big trouble?! Father's few decades of hard work has been destroyed by you in just a few days. Now, all of our family's assets are going to be confiscated."
Jessica frowned and did not pay any attention to her younger brother. She looked directly at her father and said "Father, go get ready and leave with me immediately."
Jessica's father hesitated for a moment, not saying anything. Jessica's younger brother objected, "We can't leave. You're telling us to leave with you right now? Are you asking us to court death? Fang Xingjian is being chased down to be killed, and the White Army won't be able to hold on for long. Yet, you still want us to follow you?"
Jessica threw a cold glance toward her younger brother, not saying anything. She merely looked at her father and said, "Father, I don't have too much time. Leave with me quickly. As for Lord Fang Xingjian, it's impossible for him to lose to other people."
Jessica's father still did not reply. He merely frowned and said with a sigh, "Jessica, I really can't afford to take this risk." He did not think well of Fang Xingjian, and he felt that his daughter's words were merely out of blind admiration.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Jessica's eyes as she looked at her father. The white energy in her body grew a little more intense, and an emotion of becoming more apathetic and wanting to pursue the path of Dao appeared in her heart.
Just then, the television host's gasp rang out.
It was followed by a series of scenes and reports of Fang Xingjian chasing and killing the Commanders across the planet. Jessica's parents and younger brother were shocked with their eyes wide open and mouths agape.
Jessica's father fell down onto the sofa and then suddenly shot up to his feet. He looked at the spot Jessica had initially been, but there was no longer anyone there. Only Jessica's voice rang out faintly.
"The other armies probably won't come and bring further trouble for fear of Lord Fang Xingjian's reputation. However, there will probably be a series of great battles to follow. You guys better go hide well."
At this moment, an intense feeling of wanting to pursuit the path of Dao suddenly grew in Jessica's heart. She felt that the feelings in the secular world were extremely fragile and meaningless, and the white energy in her body grew increasingly intense.
When Jessica's father saw that Jessica had disappeared, his mouth remained agape, and strong feelings of regret shone in his eyes.
"Sigh, we're wrong. We've really made the wrong choice this time around." However, at the next moment, he appeared determined."But Jessica is my daughter after all. I'll head to the Kun Lun Mountains immediately. Even if I had to squeeze my way in, I'll make sure to get into the Sacred White Crevice."
...
"Grade!!"
A young man stared at Grade, the Black Army's Commander, and called out with strong feelings of hatred.
However, at the next moment, his mind was completely engulfed by black energy. He also disappeared completely.
Sensing streams of the pink ring's energy seething to and fro in his body, Grade revealed a hint of satisfaction. However, this feeling of satisfaction disappeared completely very soon after, and the greed in his eyes grew even more intense.
Just a moment ago, he had completely engulfed the Pink Army's Commander.
The reason the two of them did not head to the Heaven-Connecting Tower was because Grade had assaulted him in midway.
Ever since the engulfing souls were wiped out and Grade gained a complete grasp over all of the black ring's energy, he had been growing stronger continuously.
After engulfing the Pink Army's Commander, Grade's strength increased explosively once again.
Grade lifted his hand and looked at the pink ring on his index finger, revealing a hint of surprise.
'This still isn't enough!' He licked his lips and looked toward the sky. 'I want more! I want all of the powers of the other 12 armies!
'As long as I can get all of the rings' energies from all of the remaining armies, I'll be able to merge the good and evil, gather the powers of the 13 demonic gods, and become a unique existence in the world.
'When that happens, even that person won't be able to withstand a single attack from me. The entire world will be in my hands. '
At the thought of this, the greed and desires in Grade's heart surged even more. He was like a wolf who had been starved for three days, unable to hold back from wanting to engulf all of the other Commanders.
Three hours later, the news of Fang Xingjian chasing and killing the other Commanders spread across the planet in the blink of an eye. When Grade heard this piece of news, his eyes lit up.
'The heavens are on my side. The heavens are really on my side. Their physical bodies have been crushed, and their ring's energies are being depleted incessantly. This is a good opportunity for me to show off my skills. It's really a heaven-sent chance. '
At the thought of this, Grade turned into a burst of black light, heading off in search of the Commanders' positions.
Over ten minutes later, based on the unique liaison method between the armies, Grade soon found the location of his first target.
In a forest in the South America, Zi Ling looked at Grade. Her expression was still that of fear.
"It's too terrifying. This Fang Xingjian is too terrifying. You won't be able to imagine how powerful he is. Moreover, what he used wasn't the white ring's energy. He's definitely a visitor from beyond the heavens and doesn't come from our world." Zi Xing's physical body had been crushed, and her body was now formed from the purple ring's energy. However, her condition was weak and unstable, seeming as if she would break down at any moment.
Seeing Zi Ling, Grade approached slowly. Revealing a concerned expression, he said, "It's alright. We'll join forces and call Edward along. Then we'll have ten Commanders together and won't need to be afraid that we can't defeat him."
Zi Xing shivered, unexpectedly shaking her head at the next moment."Not enough. It won't be enough. We must call that person out. Other than him, there's probably no one else on the entire planet who can be a match for Fang Xingjian.
"You don't understand. You haven't really fought him before. You'll only understand after having fought him. He isn't something that humans can fight against."
Hints of terror had been planted in her heart by Fang Xingjian. They kept on growing, causing her mind to wander. Her battle prowess, battle will, and level of wariness had all plunged down to the lowest possible level.
At this rare opportunity, Zi Ling's expression changed, and she cried out in surprise and fury, "What are you doing?!" Zi Ling's light burst out, but endless black energy came surging toward her, as if wanting to completely encompass and taint her.
"You id*ot! Our real enemy is Fang Xingjian! He's the archenemy of all of us!"
Grade laughed, "Don't worry. After eating you guys up, I'll eat him up too."
"Id*ot, you'll regret this."
Zi Xing put up a fight. However, after being defeated by Fang Xingjian several times, her ring's energy and her will had already weakened severely and feelings of terror had been planted in her heart. Consequently, she was now unable to get away from Grade's attacks and could only watch as her body was gradually encompassed by darkness.
Unknowingly, the new addition of a purple ring appeared on Grade's hand.
