Chapter 1507: Ling Fengyun (1/2)
After a brief lull, Li Qiye gently spoke: “I can only say that the times have changed. If I was still the Dark Crow, it would be my time to take care of everything and harvest. Afterward, it would be a fruitful and brilliant age. Unfortunately, it’s time for me to leave…”
“Young Master, whether it be your lovers or fallen brothers or even me, you don’t need to stay for anyone.” Ruonan replied in a serious manner: “Just keep walking forward to fight the last battle. No one can stop your advance; this is your greatest charm and why people admire you. If, say, you were to stop because of me, I would be a sinner in your life. In my eyes, you are the one I admire the most, so I don’t want to leave a stain in your life. That would be an unforgivable crime.”
She spoke sincerely; each word came from the heart.
“I know.” Li Qiye nodded: “I won’t be stopping for you, that’s just how life is. Even if someone used to be the ruler of the nine heavens or master of the universe, they still can’t have everything go their way.”
“Young Master, there’s no need to worry about me. I made my own choice so even if I die in battle one day, it will be without regrets since that would still be accomplis.h.i.+ng one of my goals. In my life, to have met you and be able to follow you are my best moments and memories. You taught me how vast the world is, gave me a pursuit in life, and showed me the profundities of the grand dao.
“How many people in the world are actually aware of this? Most lives are ephemeral. Without your guidance, I could still have become a blessed daughter of the heavens, an existence that could walk proudly across the nine worlds. However… I wouldn’t be me, someone who withstands the arduous pa.s.sing of time. You gave me a firm dao heart — this is more precious than anything else!” Her eyes turned red at this point.
“Silly girl.” He wiped away the tears and smiled: “You are definitely a blessed existence. Even without me, you could still make it to this level. Your success today isn’t necessarily because of me. You yourself are worthy of pride. If your father was here, he would be proud because of his daughter even if your choice conflicts with his wish.”
Ruonan eventually smiled and gently shook her head.
“Okay, I’m going to try again and see if there are more people without eyes.” He lifted his head and chuckled: “Another big wave might create some effect.”
Ruonan knew what he wanted to do and smiled back. Her invincible Young Master has returned.
She eventually advised: “Young Master, you could go ask Terminus. Maybe he knows something.”
“Old Terminus does know quite a few things, but there’s no way for him to know the exact location. Someone of his level isn’t qualified to know about this or I would have figured it out long ago.”

While everyone was awestruck by Li Qiye’s battle record, the sky over at the Dragon Demon Sea seemed to have been torn open.
“Whoos.h.!.+” A boundless light surged out and illuminated the entire region.
“Boom!” Waves of endless height were set off after a loud explosion. The entire Dragon Demon Sea quaked. All of the existences there were trembling with fear. Many fish and shrimp at the seabed didn’t dare to come out.
At this time, many people in this region and even in other places of Heaven Spirit saw a gigantic s.h.i.+p. It was the size of a continent. The moment it entered this region, it set off the terrifying waves that impacted everything.
After seeing this, an expert exclaimed: “The Roaring Conch!”
Many fresh cultivators had never seen this scene before and were completely stunned. This might be the largest s.h.i.+p they have ever seen. Perhaps there wasn’t another one of this magnitude in the world.
Even a few older experts were dazed and murmured: “The legend is true, that’s the Roaring Conch.”
In Heaven Spirit, there was a rumor that the Roaring Conch wasn’t only a sect’s name. It was a s.h.i.+p, and the sect was established on it.
In fact, many people didn’t believe in its existence. After all, how could a lineage with two sea G.o.ds be built on a mere s.h.i.+p? How could it contain such a great lineage?
