Chapter 738: Yet She Sniffs The Plum Blossoms (1/2)
In a corridor of the Longevity Palace, Emperor Liang held his hands behind his back, gazing at the giant, faraway mountain.
The adjacent Su Xing hesitantly answered. “I don’t need the Overlord’s wish. I don’t have any faith in this thing.”
“Oh?” Emperor Liang’s brow wrinkled, showing curiosity.
“I will climb the mountain, and I will see what kind of landscape is there. As for these Star Duels, I will definitely end them.” Su Xing gave a downplayed smile.
“For it to be able to drop so many formidable Star Generals, have you truly no fear?” Emperor Liang continued: “That Maiden Mountain’s power is most certainly far stronger than Liangshan Continent’s.”
“I think that may not be the case.” Su Xing’s expression was very relaxed: “So long as I can grasp Transforming Star of Annihilation, I think I can at least have a place to stand in Star World.”
“Transforming Star of Annihilation, huh.” Whenever Emperor Liang heard of the final goal of Liangshan’s cultivators, he could not help but sigh. In close to ten thousand years, it was a fact that no cultivator could truly comprehend this legendary Transforming Star of Annihilation. Even Supervoid Peak cultivators were unable to obtain any glimpse into comprehension.
“We once had a candlelight chat with Holy Monk Four Noble Truths about this Transforming Star of Annihilation matter, and We actually have some grasp of it.” Emperor Liang slowly spoke. He held one hand behind him while the other extended forwards. Like the sun peeking through the clouds, it swept away the mist, revealing Maiden Mountain even more clearly.
“This Transforming Star of Annihilation will require annihilation before you can be a transforming star.”
“Your Majesty’s meaning is?”
“Reportedly, Supervoid peak cultivators must first cripple their own cultivation, degrade themselves into ordinary people. Only by this kind of circumstance of great fortune and misfortune can Transforming Star be grasped.” Emperor Liang said.
Su Xing recalled Devil Ancestor Dark Nether and nodded. “I think so as well. But to make a Supervoid peak cultivator become a cripple, they would perhaps be killed off before becoming Transforming Star.” No wonder Liangshan Continent’s history never had records of Transforming Star of Annihilation; because when a cultivator truly arrived at a level of comprehension, those who did not already enter Star World would already have been destroyed.
However, using magic weapons like the Ten Thousand Calamities Chain or Soul Concealing Muslin as Devil Ancestor Dark Nether had actually was not a bad solution.
“The Seven Stars Assembly is already here. We would like that even if you are willing for Transforming Star of Annihilation, that you do not face this danger.” Emperor Liang smiled and said.
“Find someone from Star World?” Emperor Liang’s eyes flashed, and he laughed aloud. “Surprisingly, you would dare have designs on her. If she truly came from Star World, then perhaps you actually can reach this Realm. My daughter truly has taken fancy to a reckless man, ha, ha, ha, ha.”
Su Xing laughed along.
Now that the ascent was at hand, there was no way he could not take risks right now.
“I am enormously relieved to leave Hanyan to you.” Emperor Liang turned his head back to look around the Longevity Palace. He sighed: “You have so many beautiful Star Generals. Perhaps you can answer Us a question?”
“Your Majesty, you wish to ask my origins?” Su Xing guessed.
Emperor Liang nodded. In fact, he had investigated Su Xing’s history. Other than the Four Styles School, everything else was unknown, as if Su Xing seemingly appeared out of thin air. But to have this kind of boldness and courage, to always be dazzling like a firefly in the night, he could not possibly be someone mediocre and without background. “This will be the last time we see one another. We will never be able to eat or rest in peace if We cannot solve this mystery.”
“Your Majesty, just treat me as if I came from Star World.” Su Xing did not know how to speak about his history.
“You could only possibly have come from there.” Emperor Liang said.
“Take good care of Hanyan. We will definitely go to Star World to look for you.” Emperor Liang continued confidently.
“As you wish.”
Emperor Liang sighed, “We suddenly feel that Liangshan Continent will actually be somewhat lonely without you.”1 Muttering this, Emperor Liang soared into the air, instantly vanishing from the Longevity Palace.
Su Xing calmly looked at Liangshan Continent’s landscape. A while after, he turned and walked through the corridors.
Each of the training girls turned gazes full of love and affection towards this beloved man.
“Lord Husband, do you truly wish to go grasp Transforming Star of Annihilation?” Wu Siyou was not without worry.
“Only by becoming stronger can a wish be achieve.” Su Xing’s tone was resolute.
Wu Siyou nodded, helplessly smiling.
“Let’s go find her now.”
…
Surrounded by mountains on all sides, embracing a pool of springwater, this was a crisp and concentrated scene, practically a tranquil water painting. A yellow-robed girl sat on a rock at the water’s edge. Her feet were bare, and her golden armor was already set to the side. The girl rinsed her hair with the clean water, turning her incisive eyes towards a giant mountain beyond.
The clear water flowed, soaking the woman’s clothes, clinging to that physique tenderly. The woman was freshening herself when there was a sudden breeze. Several plum blossom petals drifted down in the forest. With a wave of her hand, the plum blossom petals swirled into her hand.
“She leaps off the swing, lazily raising her slender hands. Dew condenses on the thin flowers, a light sweat seeping into her clothes. She sees someone approach…”2
The girl softly sang. No one would ever have thought that this calm, picturesque, and gentle as water woman was that famous Thousand Buddha Star Chao Gai. Just as she mentioned “someone approach,” Chao Gai’s expression suddenly chilled. She coldly called out: “You sneak, quickly come out.”
“What a fine ‘Rouge Lips.’ I never thought you’d have such a side to you, Wuhui.”
A voice suddenly rang out and broke the quiet.
