1905: Blood River’s Dream (1/2)
The Purple Dragon King bitterly laughed.
This is merely the blood sacrifice before the main dish. They have already killed enough to make a corpse mountain and a blood river, unending scarlet red…
Apparently he still truly wasn’t Sky King material. As a peak Demon Race powerhouse, seeing this made his hair stand on end, aghast and fearful. Those Human Race kings, however, haven’t blinked an eye. Looking at their relative strength in this regard, their ability to bear psychological burdens already stood above in a position of superiority.
“Ye Hongchen’s strength admittedly is quite formidable, but if he has a confrontation with the five great Sky Kings at the same time, his odds of success are zero.” Glaze Sky King sighed. “But Purple Dragon, do you know why he continues to pressure the whole strength of the Ye Family even though he clearly knows he has no chance of victory?”
Purple Dragon King scratched his head. “This one certainly truly doesn’t know. Fighting a war without victory, being fully aware of the fact that he won’t succeed, Big Mister Ye has been unexpectedly unwise up until now…”
“It’s not only you that doesn’t know, I also don’t know.” Glaze Sky King said, “I only vaguely sense that he apparently wants to shatter this plane of the heavens and earth, once more shuffling the cards and restructuring a new state of society. But, this is only one reason. As for the other reasons, or perhaps the reason that is the most important one in the bottom of Ye Hongchen’s heart, I also am unable to understand them.”
“After all, even if he can shatter this plane of the heavens’ original rules and regulations, the final outcome is sure to have the whole Ye Family buried with him! The Ye Family are all dead men walking. Even he himself is unable to have a narrow escape. Even if he did manage to shatter this plane of the heavens, what sort of meaning would it have?”
Glaze Sky King looked out across the plane of battle enshrouded by clouds, contemplating with a frown. After a good while, he slowly shook his head.
He clearly found it hard to imagine exactly what Ye Hongchen’s true aim in doing all of this was.
Actually, this same question also existed inside the other four big Sky Kings’ hearts as well.
Ye Hongchen, what exactly is the point of doing all of this?
With this kind of crazy battle, there could only be this kind of explanation… or perhaps Big Mister Ye was simply tired of living. Moreover, the whole group of brothers still following Big Mister Ye were collectively tired of living!
“Hahaha…” Big Mister Ye stood under a huge pine tree. This pine tree resembled a giant umbrella, covering up the sky. Ye Hongchen faced the sky and laughed for a long time, laughing to his heart’s content.
Under the tree, there were still 26 seats.
Since the reunion, the 25 old brothers had spent every day accompanying each other, drinking wine, chatting, and getting drunk together.
“This sort of drinking to the limit of your life, enjoying your life to the fullest until you can’t go any more, is this good or not?!” Ye Hongchen said, smiling slightly.
“Good!” 25 people laughed loudly together.
Among these there were a couple people who had wine in hand, but still had wisps of blood trickling out of the corners of their mouth. It was clear that they were severely wounded.
As they were this class of absolute peak cultivators, they wouldn’t be wounded easily. Once they were wounded, it was precisely by inflicting serious damage. Even if they had serious damage inflicted upon them, they could also use their cultivation level to suppress it so that it wouldn’t be revealed in the slightest, but these two people’s conditions were so bad that they couldn’t suppress it, making it obvious how seriously grave their injuries were.
“Brothers intersect again after 100,000 years, what regrets do we have left in this life!?”
“The young ride drunk spurring their horses through the Jianghu, the aged sit together and get thoroughly drunk! Indeed I have no regrets!”
“From beginning to end, my brothers haven’t changed! I have no regrets in this life!”
“A hundred thousand years looked flourishing, I have no regrets in this era!”
“…”
Guan Shanyao let out a big “hei hei” laugh.
“130,000 years!” Guan Shanyao laughed and laughed, unexpectedly going silent.
“130,000 endless years going by, seeing my first wife and my children gradually go senile and become yellow dirt! Seeing my son grow up, grow old, and go die; seeing my grandson grow from a young boy and gradually arrive at being old… seeing my great-great-grandson, seeing generation after generation of my offspring’s descendants… seeing my family clan tomb go from a field almost a mu in size, slowly increasing to a burial mound, and expand bit by bit… gradually growing so large as to become today’s cemetery of more than seven hundred li continuously!”
Guan Shanyao shook his head. That seemingly still young face gradually showed endless vicissitudes.
“Every time I was lonely in my mind, I would want to go look for my old wife to have a personal chat with her… finding her burial mound would take all morning. Occasionally I would go into seclusion, and one time afterwards, ten years had already gone by, and after the wind had blown and the rain had battered, I unexpectedly couldn’t even find my beloved wife’s burial mound…”
“This kind of feeling, this cycle of torture happening again and again… my heart is already numb and wooden.”
