Chapter 140: Le Shi's Merit! _1

Even though the corpses on the battlefield had long been cleaned up, the bloodstains that had spilled over the Great Wasteland were impossible to conceal. Aside from the whistling of the gale, the entire battlefield was silent and solemn.

Upon Xiao Chen's order, numerous War Soldiers from the Gu Yuan Tribe entered the Desolate Ancient Forest, felling trees and collecting wood to prepare the funeral pyre for their fallen brothers.

The roaring flames rose high, but they couldn't overshadow the heroic spirits of the dead warriors. Thusly, Xiao Chen stood before this great fire, his body reddened by the blazing heat, as hundreds of warriors returned to the Great Wasteland in the flames. The rhythmic sounds of labored breathing emanated from the crowd behind him.

Much later, after the raging fire had subsided, nothing but unswept embers remained. No trace was left behind; hundreds of warriors had completely vanished, their lives seemingly as frail and delicate as ever.
