Chapter 264 Broke In Alone (1/2)

At that moment, a net wrapped around her and Yang Miaoyun. When she was struggling, a sword ray was in front of her forehead. The coldness prevented her from using any of her mana.

She looked at Yang Miaoyun. She could feel that she was being apologetic but at the same time, she was angry. She felt empathetic towards Shen Lian, but Shen Lian never trusted her.

Shen Lian treated her as equal and restrained her too.

The sword ray was constantly at Liusu's acupoint in between her brows. Another inch closer, her spirit could be damaged.

Liusu spoke with hatred, ”What do you want to do?”

”Tell me the reason why you took Ruoxi,” Shen Lian spoke softly and it got colder. The fume around was almost frozen.

Liusu said, ”For your position, it seems too much for you to treat me like this. If you like to know, you can ask directly at Taisu Palace. Ruoxi is also there.”

She did not stop laughing and she was challenging him.

Shen Lian said calmly, ”I will go, but you better tell me why you took her.”

Liusu said nothing but she still carried the smug on her face.

As the sword ray moved, her arm was gone in a sudden. The ice froze her cut and hence there was not even a drop of blood. Liusu did not even feel pain, but it became realistic when she saw her arm in the net.

Though there was no pain, she was afraid. There was not even ripple in Shen Lian's eyes. They were as quiet as the depth of the trench. She did not expect Shen Lian to do that, as it was still within Taisu Sect. He should know that Qing Xuan was not in the best state. It was not the right thing to offend Taisu, which would definitely bring trouble to Qing Xuan during the Bier Discourse of Dao.

Was he nuts?

Shen Lian just looked at her quietly. The fear spread once it's born. In the past, she thought she was hardworking when she cultivated his Qi as she always entered into a deep stage. She had the tendency to not be disturbed by external turbulence, but it was only now then she felt how weak her heart was. Stripping off her cultivation experience, she was nothing more than a commoner.

If it was not the incarnation of Shen Lian but him himself, he needed not to go through the trouble. He could have just taken her soul to get the answer he wanted.

Liusu's mental defense had come crumbling down, along with Yang Miaoyun who was in the net. She did not expect how cruel Shen Lian even though he looked gentle. It was a shame that she was empathetic towards him. She forgot that when Liusu was attacking her, Shen Lian stood up the first moment.

Ultimately speaking, Shen Lian still did not do anything to her.

”Say it.” The simple command beat Liusu's heart hard like a hammer was knocking into it.

She finally said, ”Your niece is the reincarnation of Yuan Jun, and it is a rare occurrence every thousand years. Even in our Taisu Sect, it is extremely rare. Without special reasons, even people of my rank would not know about it. You can understand it as she is the reincarnation of celestials. When she came to the earth, she was not supposed to be seeking immortality but to experience trial. For her to be in Taisu is fated, but the Hall Master didn't teach her Dadong Scripture, instead she was taught with the Synchronized Heart Mantra of Taisu.”

Shen Lian knew the status of Dadong Scripture in Taisu Sect - it was like Taixu Strategy to Qing Xuan. It might not be as powerful as Taixu Strategy, but it was a direct path to immortality. It was not abnormal for Ruoxi to practice under Taisu Sect's top technique, but what was the Synchronized Heart Mantra of Taisu?

Shen Lian said, ”Why don't you tell me what's the Synchronized Heart Mantra of Taisu?”

”It is a method of spiritual enhancement. Once you start, it is impossible to stop else there will be infinite suffering. The technique with start with planting the divine aura of the predecessor in the core of the spirit and mind of the future successor. They will then grow together until the cultivator is replaced by the passer. Hence why it's 'synchronized heart',” Liusu said, she felt that she was relieved of the burden.

She had hidden this secret for a long time. If it was not because the three of them were a part of the Hall Master's plotting, she would not have known it.

Shen Lian's heart was filled with an incredible anger. He always thought of himself as someone calm, but this time around he could not calm himself down. It was partly due to Ruwang, but there were also elements of self-blame and pity.

To him, there was no difference between Ruxu and Powang, but he did not feel any happiness. He only felt an uncontrollable anger.

Eventually, he suppressed his anger and asked, ”Where's Ruoxi?”

”She's always following the Hall Master.” Since she had said it, she did not bother with hiding anymore.

Shen Lian tore the net into two. Yang Miaoyun was transferred to the cliff previously with his mana. He then brought Yang Miaoyun to the palace on top of the mountain. There was only one entrance at Taisu Palace. The cloud and smoke around flew by with skylights, further painting the picture of a celestial house. However, regardless of how close the door was, he could not reach there.

”How can I open the restriction of the entrance?” Shen Lian asked.

This time round Liusu did not even resist. She just told him the method.

Shen Lian followed the method and went a step forward with her as if she just went through a mystic block. They both landed on the pure white stone pavement. The palace door was right in front. The word 'Taisu' represented externality and it was written with dragon phoenix seal scripture.

The board of the palace door already beat the quality of a lot of the top equipment in the world.

He focused his sight, and then he saw a purple-clothed female Daoist in front. Her face looked like the flower in spring and the moon in autumn. She was out of this world. As she walked towards them slowly, she was one of the three that took Ruoxi last time.
