Chapter 1260 - The Heavenly Poison Falls (1/2)

Chapter 1260 - Heavenly Poison Falls

Those near emotionless words pronounced the demise of a Star God. Moonflower’s pupils swiftly lost their color as she finally realized something in her last moments of lucidity...

“Could it be… that Yun Che… is...”

Jasmine slowly turned around. The bloody light in her eyes flashed once as she raised her hand and lightly flicked a finger.

A strand of gentle wind immediately brushed past Moonflower’s body.

It was only a strand of gentle wind that was created by the flick of a finger, having only enough power to brush away a dried leaf. But after coming into contact with this gentle wind, Moonflower’s body actually started to dissipate all of a sudden… just like a bunch of wooden boxes being toppled by the wind.

It was at this moment that the red line that transfixed Moonflower’s body finally disappeared.

The Heavenly Poison Star God… had fallen!

In a single instant, her body and soul had been sliced into countless tiny fragments, a swiftly spreading pool of blood and water left behind by her dissipating body. Her body had been sliced in such tiny fragments that even the people most familiar with her would not be able to find any trace of the Heavenly Poison Star God.

A short scarlet-red dagger that was held between Jasmine’s fingers soundlessly disappeared... Even though its entire body was a scarlet-red, it did not have a single droplet of blood on it. Furthermore, this blade had a name which would cause all of the people who lived in the Realm of the Gods to tremble in fear...

The God Slaying Blade!

“Big… Big Sister...”

Caizhi’s face was a ghastly white, and it was clear that she was extremely shocked and frightened by this turn of events.

Even though she loathed Moonflower… Moonflower was still a Star God.

The death of a Star God was a shocking thing and it was not something that would merely shock the Star God Realm. It was a huge event that would shake the heavens and the earth within the Eastern Divine Region, in the entire God Realm.

Compared to the Caizhi who had suffered from a great shock, Jasmine’s face was a sea of calm and indifference... It was so calm and indifferent that it seemed as if Jasmine had merely squashed an annoying fly.When she arrived in front of Caizhi, her eyes and her voice had become far more gentle and soft, “Caizhi, I’m sorry… I used you.”

“Big Sister, you… got me to duel her, just so you could...” Caizhi’s voice trembled.

Jasmine gave a small nod of her head, “Moonflower was an insidious and cunning person. If I had told you in advance, even if your acting was extremely good, it was still very possible that she would figure out that something was off.”

Caizhi’s blanched lips opened, but no words came out of her mouth for a very long time.

“Moonflower and Rose were going to arrive in advance, so I had calculated the time of their arrival and dispatched you at a time when you would just happen to run into them... Rose’s strength lies in his mental strength whereas that also happens to be your weakest area. In addition to this, you disliked Moonflower the most, so you would definitely choose Moonflower as an opponent.”

“Furthermore, Rose has a sister complex. The first thing he’ll do when he gets back is to go see Zi Wan. As a result, he wouldn’t choose to watch the duel either.”

“This place is located in the Star God Realm. Furthermore, it is the Stardust Palace itself. So this is the place that you and Moonflower would feel most secure in. Even though you were not able to beat Moonflower, she did not dare to allow herself to be distracted while facing you... I hid in this place and waited for a good opportunity to take her life.”

“...” Caizhi’s brain was still completely dazed by this, her eyes still fixed on that pool of blood and water. She still did not dare to bring herself to believe that the puddle of blood was actually all that was left of the Heavenly Poison Star God, who did not even have a body left to bury...

“Bu... but… she… she...”

“Caizhi, you don’t need to worry,” Jasmine consoled her in a soft voice. “Moonflower deserved to die a long time ago. As for that ‘old villain’... Hmph, he won’t have the guts to do anything to me anyways.”

---------------------

As he accompanied the retinue of the Star God Emperor, Yun Che finally arrived in the Star God Realm that he had yearned to come to in his dreams.

As a king realm, the Eternal Heaven Realm had a higher status than the Star God Realm, but compared to the first time that he had stepped into the Eternal Heaven Realm, Yun Che’s emotions were several times more agitated and restless than they were before.

Because this was the place where Jasmine was born and where Jasmine currently resided.

When he had entered the Eternal Heaven Realm, the first impression that Yun Che had was that he had stepped into some sort of celestial realm. But it was at this moment, when he had entered the Star God Realm, that Yun Che truly knew what a celestial realm was supposed to look like.

The world in front of him was shrouded by clouds and mist, countless palaces and celestial mountains floated within them. Specks of light dotted the space between the heavens and the earth, one moment seeming like the light of fireflies and the next moment seeming like starlight itself.

Just like the Eternal Heaven God Realm before it, the spiritual energy of the Star God Realm was also incomparably dense and pure. Walking within this spirit energy was like bathing in a clean spring of water, soothing and clearing both the heart and mind. Under this dense spiritual energy, one could see, in a single glance, countless celestial flowers and strange plants, and countless priceless treasures of the heavens and the earth in this place.

One could hear the gurgling of water in one’s ear as countless spirit springs, that sat on the top of celestial mountains wreathed in an auspicious glow, gushed up high into the clouds.

This place… was the Star God Realm...

A place that was as beautiful and lovely as a celestial realm… No wonder it could produce and nurture such a person as my Jasmine...

“Yun Che, this place is the Star God Realm. You need not feel restrained or restricted here and you need not feel any urgency or pressure when it comes to cultivating the Star God’s Broken Shadow technique. Instead you can first relax and have fun exploring this realm.”

“I understand,” Yun Che replied.

The Star God Emperor turned around and gave a faint smile, “I heard that you came from a planet in the lower realms. It is called Neptune, is that right?”

Yun Che’s heart gave a slight thump before he spoke in an incomparably unperturbed voice, “To think that the Star God Emperor would actually know of this junior’s origins. This junior is simply far too honored… and left in extreme fear.”

“Heh heh, now that you have been dubbed the ‘child of the heavens’, things are far different from how they were back then. So it’s natural that people will be curious about where you were born.” The Star God Emperor’s eyes swivelled, “This emperor has not descended to the lower realms in many years, so I have also not heard of this Neptune either. I have no idea what sort of planet this is, that it could actually...”

Before the Star God Emperor had finished speaking, his body suddenly convulsed, his expression changing drastically.

As the emperor of the Star God Realm, only a momentous event would provoke such a violent reaction from this man. The Heavenly Origin Star God was shocked by this reaction as well, and he swiftly asked in a low voice, “What happened?”

The Star God Emperor’s expression was dark and gloomy and it was a long time before he finally said with a heavy voice, “Moonflower… is dead!”

“What!?” The Heavenly Origin Star God gasped as he went pale with shock, “Who? Who did it!?”

The Twelve Star Gods were not only a symbol of strength for the Star God Realm, they were akin to the cornerstones of the Star God Realm as well. For a Star God to fall... In the eyes of the Star God Realm, there could be no event that was bigger than this.

But who in the known universe was able to kill a Star God!? Who in the known universe would dare to kill a Star God!?

“Moonflower… was killed by somebody in an instant.”

When the Heavenly Origin Star God heard those words, his expression changed yet again.

In the entire God Realm, there was only one person who could take the life of a Star God in a mere instant!

The Heavenly Slaughter Star God!!

Amongst the Twelve Star Gods, if one were talking about a face-to-face confrontation, everyone knew that Heavenly Wolf was the strongest while Heavenly Slaughter was the weakest.
