1315 Destroys the City With a Sword, the Arrival of a Crisis (2/2)
The golden skeleton fell silent. After the ghostly fire in its eyes beat for a long time, it finally said, ”Fine… I'll join you.”
”A wise man submits to fate. Hahaha…” The gray-robed old man burst out laughing. Then, he sped away on the sword light.
…
From the sky, the gray-robed old man threw a beam of sword energy toward God Vanishing Mountain.
Suddenly, a slender and fair arm swept out of the mountain and dispersed the sword energy.
”You don't have to come to me. I'm no longer concerned about life or death. Get out of here.” A cold voice echoed out.
”Don't you want to reconsider… Ice Saint? At its prime, your Ice Vanishing Palace was a monster that looked down upon the whole Netherworld. Are you willing to let it sink to the ground?” the old man said lightly. ”It's not worth doing this for that Nether King Tian Cang…”
”I don't need you to teach me what to do. Get lost now,” said the indescribably beautiful woman sitting on the ten-thousand-year ice.
”If you go against the wind, you will inevitably suffer destruction… No one can stop the unification of the Netherworld. Black Demon and Jin Lou both gave in. What are you holding on to?” the old man said coldly. The next moment, he raised a hand, and countless beams of sword energy immediately appeared in it.
”You're not leaving? If you don't get out of here now, I'll call the dog,” said Ice Saint in a cold voice.
At that, the old man's expression changed. ”Hmph! You have no idea what is good for you! Soon, that dog won't be able to protect even himself. You will die with him!” He sneered, then stepped on the sword light and sped away.
A disdainful look appeared on Ice Saint's face as she watched the old man disappear. ”A bunch of hypocrites. How dare he come to ask for my help when they had wounded me in the past? Do they think I'm so accommodating?”
As soon as she finished speaking, she pulled out an ice-cream cone from behind her and slowly enjoyed it.
…
Outside Forbidden Soul City, the Yellow Spring River suddenly rocked. Huge waves rose to the sky as the blood-colored water churned. All of a sudden, a sword beam flew whistling over and cut the river in half.
The gray-robed old man hovered in midair. His eyes flashed, and thousands of sword beams could be seen wheeling behind him.
”Forbidden Soul City…”
A strange smile appeared on the old man's face. Looking at the broken city walls, he soared into the sky and thrust a sword at the city down below. The void squeaked under the mighty pressure of the sword.
RUMBLE!
A huge sword fell from the sky and smashed onto Forbidden Soul City, devouring everything in an instant. Under the formidable destructive force of the sword, the buildings in the city collapsed, and bricks turned into powder. In a flash, the majestic city was reduced to ruins.
Meanwhile, a few thousand miles away, the people of Forbidden Soul City watched the scene in shock and horror. Fortunately, Prison Overlord Ying Long had moved them out of the city. Otherwise, they would have all died under the attack. The sword strike was so strong that even a Perfected Little Saint couldn't resist. It was as if a real God of Sword had descended.
The gray-robed old man waved his sleeve. A powerful blast immediately swept out with a rumble, dispersing the clouds of smoke and dust that covered the ruin.
”Oh?” His eyes focused as he glanced down, then suddenly, they burst into a bright light. ”It's still standing?!” He took a deep breath. Looking at the unscathed little restaurant among the ruins, his face turned cold in an instant.
Bu Fang put his hands behind him and walked to the door of the restaurant. At his side, Nethery stood quietly with Foxy in her arms.
The powerful sword strike had reduced the whole Forbidden Soul City to ruins. Through the smoke and dust, Bu Fang stared with a straight face at the gray-robed old man standing in midair.
Yellow Spring Great Sage walked out of the restaurant, holding his wine jar, while Lord Dog also came out with his enchanting cat-like steps. Standing in front of the door, they looked up at the old man.
”What's coming will come… These guys couldn't hold back at last,” Lord Dog said in his gentle and magnetic voice.
Holding his wine jar, Yellow Spring Great Sage glanced at Lord Dog and said, ”Mangy dog, this old fellow is here for you, right? He's bold to come to you alone.”
Lord Dog shook his head. ”Alone? You think too much… These few old fellows are scared of death.” The next moment, he flew into the sky and hovered in front of the gray-robed old man. However, to his surprise, the old man's eyes didn't turn to look at him. His gaze was fixed on Bu Fang, who was standing in front of the restaurant.
Lord Dog tilted his head. He then discovered that the monstrous killing intent exuding from the old man was targeted at Bu Fang.
”A little restaurant that cannot be destroyed, a heaven-defying dish, and that familiar aura… You are really too similar to that man. And because of this… you must die!”
