Chapter 713

Grand Finale
Translated by Yan of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

Time passed quickly, and three years flew by.

As the battlefield, Xi Jing was nearly destroyed to the point that it was impossible to continue living there after that war. Many of the remaining demon beasts had no choice but to move to other locations, and to this day, that large hole still remained.

As time went on, Xi Jing finally more or less recovered, and the turbulence from the past years calmed down at last. After the tragic battle concluded, Xi Jing’s major powerhouses all entered dormant modes to rest and reorganize. They all lost a few clan members and disciples on the battlefield, and even though it hurt, they couldn’t do anything about it either. Furthermore, if it weren’t for Ling Xiao and the rest, there would most likely be many times more casualties, so everyone was still very grateful towards Ling Xiao.

The head of the Demon Phoenix Clan was the first one to extend an olive branch of kindness towards them. They released Ling Xiao’s mother, Ji XiuXin.

Originally, after Ji XiuXin broke the clan rules, she was going to be imprisoned for life, but because they owed Ling Xiao, the head of the Demon Phoenix Clan released her after discussing it over with several elders. They promised that she would be free from now on, and the Demon Phoenix Clan would no longer tie her down.

After leaving, Ji XiuXin didn’t go find Ling Xiao. Even though it was because of Ling Xiao that she ended up being forgiven and received her freedom, what happened between her and Ling Xiao could finally be considered balanced, and they had nothing more to do with each other.

After that happened, the chick, who was loaded down with heavy responsibilities, secretly ran away from the clan. He lazed about in the palace, refusing to leave. Strangely enough, the Demon Phoenix Clan, who was supposed to bring him back, didn’t make any movements.

The True Dragon Clan and Black Turtle Clan also sent them friendly messages. Long Yue would occasionally run over to the Ghost Tomb Mountain Range and visit You XiaoMo, coming and going quite frequently. Fortunately, there were many rooms in the palace.

As for the Black Turtle Clan, the baby turtle pretty much hung out in the palace all the time. He was still in the shape of a turtle, and he enjoyed crouching on You XiaoMo’s shoulders or head the most. At night, he would even guard the head of You XiaoMo’s bed, but most of the time he ended up being thrown out by Ling Xiao. As a result, he stubbornly refused to give up.

Finally, the Qilin Clan. Needless to say, the Qilin Clan’s elders were still very smart. Since they withdrew beforehand, they had lost the least among the Four Ancient Beast Clans. Of course, if it weren’t for them withdrawing at the most critical moment, they definitely would’ve dropped from the top of the Four Ancient Beast Clans to the bottom. Later, the Qilin Clan didn’t actually choose a new Qilin Lord. Some people said that the position of the Qilin Lord was left for Ling Xiao. Besides him, nobody was qualified.

As for Lin Tian, he disappeared after that war happened. Not only was he no longer in the Qilin Clan, he didn’t appear anywhere else either. Rumor had it that he was exiled by the Qilin Clan and basically found himself completely alone. In the end, that old man finally paid the price for his behavior.

Three years of reconstruction later, the Ghost Tomb Mountain Range was no longer a dangerous place that frightened people. Instead, it become the location that developed the fastest in Xi Jing. White Bone Town became White Bone City, as its area expanded several times over compared to its original foundation. Now, it had already become a big city. In a short amount of time, White Bone City had leaped to become the biggest city in Xi Jing, and it was almost about to catch up to Central City.
