Chapter 270 - The Great Heartless Dao (2/2)

Bian Xinchen’s expression remained the same. “Hmph! Cutting off all ties is the key to achieving the Great Dao I only had hopes of becoming a divinity by killing my wife and pursuing the Dao. I have never regretted killing her.”

“Bian! Xin! Chen!” Zhu Ming roared.

“Don’t forget, you’re equally responsible for Mother Feng’s death!”

“…”

Zhu Ming stiffened, his face turning pale once again. He kept his gaze fixed on the other man. “I did let Mother Feng down. That’s why I’m a ghost immortal today – to take revenge on you!”

Zhu Ming drew his weapon and charged toward Qian Yue. “Return Mother Feng’s primary soul!”

Yet, Bian Xinchen did not even flinch. He was not even concerned about getting attacked by Zhu Ming. Before Zhu Ming reached Qian Yue, he bounced back. The impact caused his soul to be unsteady.

Lonemoon glanced at Zhu Ming, who was lying on the floor. Suddenly, he liked neither Bian Xinchen nor Zhu Ming. Although he knew Zhu Ming had been hiding something, he had not expected it to be something as huge as this. He did not think Zhu Ming would have led someone else to pursue the Heartless Dao just to win the heart of his beloved. As a result, Bian Xinchen killed his own wife on his pursuit. Each man was worse than the last.

The only one worth pitying was Mother Feng, who was killed by her own husband while alive. After her death, she took great pains to train as a ghost immortal and yet got her primary soul stolen from her. Her primary soul probably helped Bian Xinchen rise to divinity in such a short time. What Lonemoon was unsure about was why Bian Xinchen needed to take on his appearance. Was it just a coincidence?

Lonemoon looked at the man in the air. No matter what, he had to first get back Bai Ze and the others’ remnant souls. “Shen Ying.”

Shen Ying nodded. In a flash, she appeared behind Bian Xinchen. She reached out to grab him.

Bian Xinchen jumped. This time, he reacted quickly and retreated several feet. His gaze turned cool as he gathered every last bit of God Power in his body and shot it toward Shen Ying.

She did not even intend to dodge the attack, but saw that the God Power that was initially headed toward her fly past her and toward Mother Feng.

“Mother Feng!” Zhu Ming screamed. He ran over but was too late. That God Power had hit Mother Feng. The array in which she was trapped immediately darkened.

Before anyone could react, Mother Feng suddenly rushed forward once more. The grievous energy was now completely bloated as she ran toward Bian Xinchen.. With what looked like all her energy, she screamed his name. “Bian! Xin! Chen!”

“Mother Feng, no!” Zhu Ming exclaimed. There was no time. Mother Feng was already drowning in an insane amount of grievous energy. The thin soul that she had left had already dissipated. Now, all that was left was the blackness of her grievances.

“Mother… Feng…” Zhu Ming fell onto the ground, as if his sanity had left him. He looked absolutely hopeless.

Suddenly, the God Power around Bian Xinchen’s body intensified. His cultivation level began to increase before their very eyes. Even the God Power that Shen Ying had gotten rid of earlier was regained and he now stood in the midst of the blue light with an excited look upon his face, clearly having gotten what he wanted. “Indeed, she’s the only obstacle between me and the Great Dao. Now, she has disappeared. I have completed the Heartless Dao and have become the one true God. Hahaha…”

He got more and more excited as he spoke, and the God Power around him got thicker and thicker. His suppressive aura rushed toward them so that everybody in the group tasted blood in the back of their throats. Shortie, who was of the lowest cultivation level, fell to one knee and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
