**Chapter 994: The Return of the Qingjian Daoist, Escaping to Safety**
Shulin Moyu narrowly escaped death and managed to survive once again. Lin once again widened the distance, never letting go of the Law Star in his hand. Even in the most dangerous moments, he firmly protected the Law Star.
The Black Eagle King and the Bat King, filled with anger, chased after him once more. In the starry sky, the enormous shadows of two God Kings appeared.
While continuing to flee, Lin Moyu suddenly smiled and stopped running. He saw a giant green sword, towering over the sky, larger than the stars.
Immediately, a familiar aura swept over his body, crossing the starry sky.
"Qingjian for eternity, slash!"
A familiar voice echoed, and starlight pierced through billions of light-years, descending upon this place. The green sword, like rain, slashed towards the Black Eagle King and the Bat King.
"Soul Law Domain!"
"No, it’s the Qingjian Daoist, run!"
The Black Eagle King and the Bat King screamed and turned to flee. But they were a step too slow. The green sword sliced through their bodies, and the two God Kings were instantly cut into pieces.
However, they did not die. Two souls burst out from their bodies, flying away like lightning, disappearing into the starry sky in an instant.
Lin Moyu saw the Qingjian Daoist arriving on his sword and shouted joyfully, "Senior, you’re alright!"
The Qingjian Daoist snorted, "A mere demon dragon, trying to kill me, not a chance."
"I just had an itch to fight it properly."
Lin Moyu looked at the Qingjian Daoist and felt something was off. The Qingjian Daoist seemed fine, but his voice sounded weak. "Senior, is your soul injured?"
The Qingjian Daoist waved his hand, "It’s nothing, just a minor soul injury. A few hundred years of rest will heal it. That creature didn’t fare much better. If it weren’t for coming to find you, I would have killed it."
Regardless of whether the Qingjian Daoist’s words were true, as long as he was fine, it was good.
Lin Moyu released the life force of the Undying Law, and the Qingjian Daoist’s spirit was instantly revitalized, his pale face gaining color.
The Qingjian Daoist was astonished, "Boy, is this your law?"
He felt his soul being repaired, and his injuries significantly lessened. What would have taken hundreds of years to heal now only required a few decades.
Lin Moyu gathered a ball of life force from the Undying Law in his palm and handed it to the Qingjian Daoist, "Senior, this is for you."
The Qingjian Daoist accepted it without hesitation, "Not bad, not bad. With this, I can fully recover in ten years at most."
Lin Moyu smiled, "Thank you for saving my life, Senior. I will never forget it."
The Qingjian Daoist waved his hand, "Don’t mention it. It’s what I should do. But you, to escape from the Black Eagle King and the Bat King for so long, impressive."
"And your law is quite good, protecting the Law Star."
Lin Moyu smiled slightly, "It’s what I should do."
"Haha, well said! We humans should be like this, some things are worth risking our lives for!"
"Come, I’ll take you home!"
The Qingjian Daoist took Lin Moyu on the journey home.
On the way, the Qingjian Daoist told Lin Moyu about recent events.
The scale of the war had suddenly expanded in the past two days.
The demons had mobilized large forces, greatly increasing the pressure on the Zhu Tian Domain Lord.
After all, the Zhu Tian Domain Lord only had the power of the human Zhuque Star Domain, unable to contend with the entire demon race. The pressure on Zhu Tian doubled, and he called for reinforcements from other star domains.
It wasn’t until yesterday that strong warriors from the Qinglong Star Domain and the Baihu Star Domain arrived, improving the situation.
This also meant that there weren’t many people available to assist Lin Moyu.
In fact, Zhu Tian had sent over a dozen God Kings to various positions in the starry sky to assist Lin Moyu. If Lin Moyu hadn’t entered the battlefield, he might have been picked up by the God Kings arranged by Zhu Tian, avoiding the earlier incident.
Hearing this, Lin Moyu smiled apologetically, "I was angry before, and when I saw the battlefield, I couldn’t help but want to vent, almost causing a big problem."
The Qingjian Daoist understood, "We cultivators all have tempers. If we didn’t, and were always calm, why cultivate at all?"
"Might as well leave the human race and join the Buddhist race. Those guys claim to be detached from worldly affairs, always at peace!"
The Qingjian Daoist patted Lin Moyu’s shoulder, "I know what you were thinking. You thought I would die blocking the demon dragon for you, right? I wasn’t boasting, I really had an itch to fight."
"A mere first-rank demon dragon, trying to kill me, not a chance."
"Even if I couldn’t win, I wouldn’t let it have an easy time."
Listening to the Qingjian Daoist’s hearty words, Lin Moyu could only smile.
He did think that way at the time, feeling very frustrated.
Although they hadn’t spent much time together, Lin Moyu saw his master in the Qingjian Daoist. He was a very good senior of the human race.
Looking back, he realized his actions were indeed inappropriate.
He could have returned the Law Star first, then gone back to the battlefield to fight to his heart’s content.
The Qingjian Daoist continued, "Don’t think too much. Fortunately, you wandered the battlefield for a few days. Otherwise, returning would have been more dangerous."
"During those days, the demons almost overwhelmed the Domain Lord and his forces, damaging many God King-level warships."
"That area almost became a dead zone. It would have been hard for you to pass through. Even I would have had a tough time."
Lin Moyu understood that battles at the God King level, even the aftermath, were not something he could withstand.
He roughly understood the demons’ strategy.
They wanted to keep the human forces occupied and then send demon kings to target him.
If he had returned directly, even the human God Kings might not have been able to protect him.
If he had been delayed by other matters, the demon kings could have killed him.
But the demons didn’t account for the Qingjian Daoist’s strength and his own unexpected survival abilities.
The combination of these factors allowed him to escape safely.
"No wonder I didn’t get a reply from the Domain Lord when I sent a message through the Human Emperor Network. What’s the situation now?" Lin Moyu asked.
Lin Moyu had contacted Zhu Tian through the Human Emperor Network after entering human territory but received no response.
The Qingjian Daoist said, "It’s normal. The Domain Lord was besieged a few days ago, fighting for several days, unable to respond."
Lin Moyu was shocked, "Is the Domain Lord alright?"
"He’s fine. The Domain Lord is very powerful. Although besieged by four peak God Kings, he could protect himself."
"Reinforcements arrived yesterday, and the demons have retreated. You can check the Human Emperor Network; he might have replied to you."
Lin Moyu connected to the Human Emperor Network and indeed received a message from Zhu Tian.
It said that arrangements had been made for someone to come.
Just as he finished reading the message, the Qingjian Daoist looked ahead, "Finally, peace!"
A God King-level warship arrived, adorned with stars.
