Chapter 78 (2/2)
Xiao Chen’s looked deadpan and said coldly, “The murderer will always be killed. He deserves to die a hundred times!”
Tiangu Zi was furious. “Then I’ll slaughter your Xiao family again today!” He then ran his energy as layers radiance appeared around his body. People felt the pressure from this aura and then charged to him.
Tiangu Zi swung his sleeve as a mountain-like power struck forth. People were sent flying backward with spilling blood in their mouth.
Xiao Chen stood straight and spat out some blood in his mouth. He coldly looked at Tiangu Zi and said, “You are bullying me with the power of Core Forming Realm. I haven’t even reached the Foundation Building Realm. Do you dare fight me again three years later?”
Tiangu Zi was filled with murderous aura and said coldly, “Three years? You don’t have the chance! I’ll show you what a Core Forming Realm Cultivator looks like to let you die in peace!”
After saying so, the energy around him moved. People felt their hearts were shaken as if they were fixed instantly. They could not move their feet at all.
“Heaven-slaying Sword!” As Tiangu Zi roared, the sky and earth seemed to be in turmoil. After he chanted some spells, a 300-meter-long golden sword suddenly appeared in the sky.
Its massive divine aura refused anyone to resist it!
Xiao Chen was completely unable to move and could only look at the sword descending to him. Every inch of his skin was about to be torn apart by the mighty aura. At this moment, he finally realized how weak he was in front of a Core Forming Realm expert. He was like an ant and could not resist one blow.
The Heaven-slaying Sword was a top skill created by a grandmaster of the Skygale Sect. This skill had been strengthening Skygale Sect’s position in Violet Manor. Back then in the Three Pure Sect, Xu Hao was not able to wield the power of this sword. However, it was different to be cast out by Tiangu Zi, a late Core Forming Realm cultivator.
This sword seemed to be able to destroy heaven and earth. When the Sword Qi was about a hundred meters away from the ground, the halls and rooms in the Fly Cloud Court collapsed under the mighty power, rumbling. Blood spilled out from many people skin, and countless people had completely fainted.
“Am I dead this time? Am I really going to die this time? Master…”
Xiao Chen gradually became unconscious under this power. The ground 10 meters around him was sinking as the crackles quickly spread to the entire Fly Cloud Court. If this sword hit them, nobody could survive.
All of a sudden, there was a loud whistle in the sky. A spiritual beast with two wings flew over quickly. Then, a woman in white leaped into the air and stood 30 meters in front of him.
At this moment, the surrounding quieted down, the buildings stopped collapsing, the huge sword in the air seemed to have stopped moving, and even time seemed to stop. A thin voice rose. “Five more flowers of grass and woods. Six lone snow flowers…”
Xiao Chen was shocked again before he came to his senses. It was none others than Li Muxue, who had already left yet now returned.
“Muxue! Don’t!”
Xiao Chen’s eyes almost burst out. He wanted to rush forth, but he could not, as if everything was fixed at a certain point.
Only that thin voice still hovered slowly between heaven and earth. “So, the snowflakes have another name called Yet-ending Flowers…”
“Muxue, don’t!” At this moment, Xiao Chen was finally able to move. He madly rushed to Li Muxue, but when he was three meters away from her, he was bounced back by an invisible mighty power around her body.
Li Muxue was hanging in mid-air. She seemed to have cast some forbidden spell that turned her life into power. Countless rows of radiance rapidly circled around her. At this moment, she looked like the Mysterious Lady of the Nine Heavens, as dazzling as ever. It seemed this was the only color left in heaven and earth.
Tiangu Zi quickly chanted spells, and the huge sword finally moved down. However, when it was 15 meters away from Li Muxue, it suddenly exploded. Then, Tiangu Zi spat out a mouthful of blood and moved back for a few steps.
The radiance around Li Muxue’s body gradually dispersed, and the wind gradually stopped. However, she slowly closed her eyes like a piece of withered leaf or a piece of white snow that fell slowly.
The magic spell she cast was the Three-Life Soul-Breaking Spell, which could turn one’s life into power. And she blocked this sword.
Xiao Chen looked at the falling figure from the sky and immediately rushed forth. But at this very moment, he had a splitting headache as numerous pictures flashed through his mind. Those pictures were just like what happened today.
That was the memory of his last life. At this moment, that piece of erased memory was finally woken up. That girl looked almost exactly the same as Li Muxue, and she was called Flower Yet-ending…
Last time on the Mystic Cyan Mountain, that girl called Flower Yet-ending blocked a destructive punch from Perfected Immortal Qingxuan just like Li Muxue did today.
…
“Muxue!” Xiao Chen came to his senses, rushed to the air, and caught Li Muxue. She lay in his arms, dying. She said slowly, “Brother Xiao… The truth is that my wish is really minor. I just… just want to watch the snow falling with you…” Before she finished speaking, her hands softened.
“Don’t die! Don’t die! Ahhh! Wake up!”
“Muxue, wake up…”
As if there was only this tearful voice left among heaven and earth, the people in his arm could not respond however he mourned.
In the distance, Xiao Wan’er and some others couldn’t help crying. The wind was blowing gently as it also carried voices of sobs.
All of a sudden, a green sword radiance dashed over and turned into a cyan-robed elder, landing on the ground. It was Perfected Immortal Daofeng. He looked at the mess in the courtyard when a chillness went through every corner of his body as if some major calamity was coming at him.
Tiangu Zi saw his frightened face and frowned, asking, “Junior brother, why are you here?”
Perfected Immortal Daofeng shook his head and looked at the courtyard with a blank face, murmuring, “Senior brother, you’ve just brought big trouble on yourself. I’m afraid that even the patriarch in Violet Manor cannot protect you…”
