Chapter 179 - The Great Immortal Execution Array (2/2)
“Let go of that lady!”
The moment he spoke, the tallest figure paused and waved toward him. “Hey, Boss!”
“Good Heart? You’re all…” right? Before he could finish speaking, he felt something beneath his feet as he landed. He looked down and saw that it was an immortal. He looked around and found that something was amiss.
Huh?
Why were there over ten people lying down here?
Why are there a few more people hanging on that tree?
Why was the man Shen Ying was stepping on so familiar?
What the heck… is happening here?
What happened in that one minute?
ლ(°△°ლ)
“Good… Heart?” You’re Good Heart; I haven’t got it wrong, right? “You’re… alright?”
He scanned her from head to toe. That’s good! She was not missing any limb and she did not have any broken bones. Even her hair was still in place. Only her robes looked a little dusty and ugly… Oh, it looked like that from the beginning.
“I’m alright.” Shen Ying tilted her head as if recalling something. “Oh yes, Che…”
She was just about to ask how the others were, when the person beneath her feet jumped. He seemed to have heard something strange. Suddenly, he struggled to get up. “You’re… Celestial… Celestial Emperor Lan Hua… You’re Celestial Emperor Lan Hua, aren’t you!”
He wanted to turn around, but the moment he moved, Shen Ying stepped on his chest so that he was lying down again. He turned his head around to get a glimpse of Lan Hua.
Lan Hua frowned as he looked at the man under Shen Ying’s feet, who had been beaten almost beyond recognition. “Who… is this pig head?”
“Er…” Shen Ying thought for awhile and replied, “He calls himself your good comrade.”
“… What? Chicken oil 1 ”
“Celestial Emperor, it’s me… it’s me!” The pig head struggled to turn around to let Lan Hua see his full features. He tried to wriggle closer to Lan Hua. “I’m Chu Xuan, Master! You… You’re still alive. That’s great, Master…”
Hey, he’s Boss’ disciple?
Shen Ying paused and retracted her leg. Then, she turned to glance at the person beside her.
“Hey, hey, hey, you’re spouting nonsense. Since when have I ever accepted disciples?” Lan Hua frowned.
“Mas… Celestial Emperor.” Chu Xuan was obviously getting more agitated. He fixed his gaze on Lan Hua and said, “I’m really Chu Xuan. I’m the Chu Xuan… from the Shu Tai Peak 70,000 years ago!”
“Shu Tai Peak?” Lan Hua bent over and took a closer look at Chu Xuan. He thought long and hard for a long time and then declared, “I don’t know you!”
Chu Xuan: “…”
Shen Ying: “…”
Er, why do I hear something breaking?
Chu Xuan’s blue and purple face became pale instantly. It seemed like every last bit of anger seeped out of his body.
He slumped, and then suddenly realised something.
“Chu Xuan knows… that he is not worthy of being your disciple. I did not dare to ask before… And I dare to even less now… In the past, I was blinded and I let you down. Please, forgive me. All I ask… All I ask is for you to let me atone for my past mistakes.” His tears started to flow down his cheeks, as if he could no longer hold them back. Soon, streaks of tears covered his face. Wow! He looks uglier now. “Even… even if you kill me, I will have no complaints.”
Hey! He’s so emotional! Shen Ying turned to look at Lan Hua.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Lan Hua felt goosebumps raise on his hands and turned to glare at her. He took a step back, disgusted. “I don’t even know him.”
“Celestial Emperor…” Chu Xuan was looking more desperate now.
Shen Ying sighed, “Hey… control your emotions first!”
“…” Why must I freaking control my emotions–explain yourself!
“Hey, you’re still alive. Since you’re still alive, come back and break the array for me.” I want to eat lunch soon and Chef is still stuck in there!
“Oh yes!” Lan Hua suddenly recalled the matter at hand. This is not the time to talk about all of this. He suddenly wondered again about how Shen Ying managed to free herself.
“You want to go back!” Chu Xuan could not believe his ears. Did the Celestial Emperor really want to go back and save Chen Ge, that ingrate?
“What’s wrong?” Hungry Shen Ying’s expression turned cold. “Do you have something to say about that?”
A few images flashed across Chu Xuan’s mind, and he began to tremble. His still swollen face instantly displayed fear. Subconsciously, he retreated behind Lan Hua. “N-No.” Compared to Celestial Emperor Lan Hua, this female immortal was much scarier!
Lan Hua did not bother about Chu Xian. Instead, he drew his flying sword, supported the pig head up, grabbed Shen Ying and flew into the sky.
They flew at an extremely high speed. In about a minute, they were back at the Interspatial Arena. On the road, they finally clarified the relationship between Lan Hua and Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan and Chen Ge were immortals from Yun Feng continent’s Shu Tai Peak. 70,000 years ago, when Chu Xuan was a Mystic Immortal, his skills and techniques were lacking given his itinerant cultivator background. As a result, a problem arose when Chu Xuan went through the Heavenly Tribulations. At that time, Lan Hua had not yet become a demon and was only an immortal emperor. He had been passing by and gave Chu Xuan a hand. He even taught Chu Xuan and Chen Ge a technique that suited them very well.
It was the work of fate. Chu Xuan had already taken Lan Hua to be his master. With the technique that Lan Hua taught them, Chu Xuan and Chen Ge trained and finally became Celestial Emperors. Later, they heard that demons were causing trouble and Chen Ge invited him, together with several other Celestial Emperors, to fight the demons.
At that time, he had no idea who the demon was. Moreover, when Lan Hua helped him, he did not leave his name behind. After Lan Hua became a demon, the demon Qi surrounding his body caused him to become unrecognisable.
After it all blew over, Chu Xuan found out that his techniques and training methods were all created by Celestial Emperor Lan Hua, who was the very demon that he had helped to defeat.
Chu Xuan felt extremely pained knowing that he had killed his benefactor with his own hands. Subsequently, he found out that Lan Yu, Lan Hua’s brother, had caused him to turn into a demon, Chu Xuan decided to work with Chen Ge and seek revenge for Celestial Emperor Lan Hua. When Lan Yu finally became the Celestial Emperor of the Yun Feng continent, however, Chen Ge no longer wanted to have conflicts with him. He turned Chu Xuan down. Chu Xuan was angered by Chen Ge’s ungratefulness and began to hate him as well.
That was why all these years, he caused Lan Yu and Chen Ge so much trouble.
As Chu Xuan recounted these things, he cried. It was obvious that he was experiencing excruciating anger. Lan Hua almost feared that he would jump off the flying sword.
Lan Hua, on the other hand, looked calm. He felt nothing in his heart. Instead, all he wanted was to eat seeds. Whatever Chu Xuan could not forget… Lan Hua could not recall whatsoever.
Lan Hua expressed that he taught so many people so many techniques that he hardly remembered any of them.
It was right – Boss Lan Hua was a child who dished out money freely. Shen Ying began to suspect that his younger brother wanted to kick him off his pedestal because he was wasting too much money.
Hmm… She’d better treat Father Niu nicely in the future.
