Chapter 52 (2/2)

What kind of fate was this?

The unre Qian's hand suddenly expanded three chi There was no blocking the sharp blade and it cut through those ghost spirits like nothing, bearing down on Jiang Peng with great force

The pressure that Jiang Peng felt from his own sect's sword technique was indescribable For a brief instance, this great demon'simmediately appeared on the flawless circle of char frost cut into the blood-red char a feint earlier, his true ai Lamp

He exclaimed in a low voice, “Break —”

In that instance, the entire cave quaked heavily, as if about to collapse The half-co La Qian Thousands of ghostly spirits fought to escape the Soul-Consu into darkQian's sword, the thick bloody aura churned for asound

The loud bang almost caused Nian Dada to faint He only came back to himself after a while, and saw that a corner of the cave had been blasted open, with light pouring in from outside Fortunately, the mountain could still withstand the force and didn't bury the Lamp was destroyed The Elder of the Ethereal Lake had returned his sword to its sheath, coolly standing on one side to look at the bloody ‘Liulang'

Nian Dada scra Qian's side, “shi+shu… this…”

“The real host has escaped” As Cheng Qian spoke, he reached out toward Nian Dada, “Do you have anywounds?”

“Yes, yes!” Nian Dada hurriedly felt around his own body, procuring a small bottle ofLiulang, Cheng Qian reached out to stop hi Qian's hand, it dissolved into a puff of 's body

Theand could produce instant results Liulang's dazed eyes had already regained focus The youth's face was full of holes, his uneven ar frohastly sight

Nian Dada couldn't help asking, “shi+shu, can he survive?”

Cheng Qian lowered his eyes, looking at the youth on the verge of death Liulang's deforround forcefully, eyes opened ith an al Qian said, “That depends on whether he wants to live”

Before Nian Dada could figure out what those words y, which, like three nails, 's skullcap, dantian, and the sole of his feet Liulang opened his le sound His entire body convulsed violently on the ground, leaving a long trail of bloodstains

“For an ordinary person, their soul would disperse with their body's death, so I've pinned his soul into this body If he can hold it for four hours, take hi Zhen Zhenren's place,” Cheng Qian said, “If he can't hold it, there's nothing I can do — I have so else to deal with, I can't take you with ain”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and disappeared in a puff of azure smoke — he had departed in a hurry just like that

Nian Dada, “Ah! shi+shu! Wait!”

He leapt three chi into the air, wanting to run after Cheng Qian, but he couldn't bring hi, so he could only spin around in place Suddenly, a ball of fire burst into theinto a person when it landed Nian Dada recoiled in fright, but when he looked closer, he saw that the newcoht blush, “M-Miss, you…”

The person who had burst in was none other than Shuikeng She looked around and stomped her foot, “Where is he?”

Nian Dada stuttered, “W-who?”

Shuikeng carab Nian Dada's collar, lifted him into the air, and fired off rapidly, “Where's the person who had used a sword here just now?”

Nian Dada's face flushed bright red as he squeezed out with great difficulty, “… He left”

“Where to?”

With a bitter face, Nian Dada struggled to save his own neck, “I don't know, Miss That's a senior fro?”

Shuikeng dropped hiht for a bit and turned back around, questioning closely, “What sect are you fro drily for a moment, Nian Dada still replied cordially, “There's only our Ming Valley in this area That's the Elder of the Ethereal Lake fro in seclusion for alot out recently, this is his first ti person…”

Shuikeng cut hihed at her persistence, but he still answered honestly, “Cheng…”

Before he could say the folloord, Shuikeng had turned into a ball of fire again and flew out in pursuit without turning back

Fifty years of seclusion, first ti the valley If that really was her little shi+xiong, where would he go? Other than Fuyao Mountain, Shuikeng couldn't think of any other place

She was crying as she went To be honest, she didn't knohat there was to cry about, but she couldn't stop her tears for some reason As soon as the tears fell from her face, they immediately evaporated a wished she could announce the news to everything under the heavens, or send a e But she also didn't dare to, fearing that this was a mere dream, a flower in the mirror, the moon reflected on the water

She didn't even dare to hear the idiot say that person's full na had become their Sect Leader's nilin [1] nobody was allowed to htest hint of allusion could incur his wrath

But while forbidding others fro in the shape of a copper coin, which he'd sometimes su that person's portrait, again and again Every ti, he would stare at it in a daze, then destroy it with his own hands

Shuikeng knew the reason for this He didn't want the person in the portrait to eternally ree this

Why couldn't Fuyao Mountain beco Qian hadthe worst possibilities Could Fuyao Mountain have already turned into a barren hill? That Library of theirs, with the most exquisite arrays and countless solitary copies of charms, could they have been claimed by some other person?

But it never occurred to him that none of these had happened — he couldn't find the way back to Fuyao Mountain

Back then, when Muchun Zhenren brought Cheng Qian back to the sect, he had led hi Qian didn't think that he could possibly fail to find Fuyao Mountain But after an unrelenting journey of a day and a night on his sword, following his h and low, he finally had no choice but to admit: Fuyao Mountain… had disappeared into thin air
