Suddenly, the longsword in Jianchen's hand broke free from Jianchen's control. At this moment, the longsword seemed to have become a sentient immortal sword. It turned into a beam of light and shot toward Dugu Qiubai who was a hundred meters away at lightning speed.
The longsword was incredibly fast. Before Dugu Qiubai could react, the longsword had already reached his throat. Then, with a strong sword aura, it pierced through his throat under Dugu Qiubai's horrified gaze. Afterward, the longsword circled around in the air and flew back to Jianchen's hand.
A fist-sized hole appeared on Dugu Qiubai's throat. Even though Jianchen's longsword was very thin, the sword aura around it still expanded the wound to the size of a fist.
Dugu Qiubai's eyes widened as he stared at the longsword that had returned to Jianchen's hand. His face was filled with disbelief as if he had seen the most unbelievable thing in the world. He opened his mouth slightly as if he wanted to say something. Unfortunately, his throat had been pierced and he could no longer speak. In the end, he slowly fell to the ground with a face full of unwillingness and shock.
Jianchen held the longsword in his hand as he silently watched Dugu Qiubai fall to the ground before him.
He sighed inwardly. He did not expect that he would make another breakthrough at the last moment and reach the realm of wielding a sword with his spirit. However, he was not far from death now.
Jianchen's eyes gradually dimmed. Even though he had made another breakthrough, he could not escape death. After all, his heart had been pierced through by Dugu Qiubai's sword.
Then, Jianchen followed in Dugu Qiubai's footsteps and slowly fell to the ground.
The moment Jian Chen collapsed, the two sword-shaped mountains that he and Dugu Qiubai stood on suddenly exploded. Countless rocks shot out in all directions as violet and azure light filled the sky, illuminating the surroundings. At that moment, the entire sky was filled with violet and azure light. Unfortunately, Jian Chen and Dugu Qiubai had no way of knowing what happened next.
… …
In a spacious and luxurious mansion, there was a large group of people gathered in front of a door. The person in front was a young man. He paced back and forth in front of the door. There was an indescribable anxiety and worry on his face. The young man was around 30 years old. He had a dignified appearance. Although he was nearing middle age, he still couldn't hide the handsomeness on his face. He wore a white robe embroidered with golden silk. He had the aura of a superior person. His face was resolute, and his eyebrows were tightly furrowed into a ball.
Three meters away from the door, there was a group of about 30 people standing there with worried expressions. There were both young and old among them. The older ones seemed to be in their sixties or seventies. They had a head full of white hair and a face full of wrinkles. Even so, their eyes flickered with a frightening light. From the light in their eyes, one would think that they were not old men at all. Instead, they were strong and vigorous middle-aged men. Most of the others were middle-aged men in their thirties or forties. They all had imposing appearances and sharp eyes. One could tell at a glance that they were not ordinary people.
In the room opposite them, the painful moans of a woman could be heard constantly.
"Madam, push harder, push harder. She's going to come out soon, she's going to come out soon …" A rather urgent voice soon rang out. The voice was rather old. One could tell with a single sound that the owner of the voice was not young and was a woman.
Outside the door, the middle-aged man who was anxiously pacing back and forth in front of the door suddenly stopped. He anxiously said, "Sigh … it's been an entire day and night. Why hasn't Yun 'er been born yet? If this drags on, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to Yun' er." The young man's voice was filled with worry. He was clearly very worried.
"Patriarch, don't worry. Madam Yun will definitely be fine. Don't forget that madam Yun is a Radiant Saint Master." An old man with a head full of white hair and a face full of wrinkles persuaded. Although his tone was filled with confidence, he still could not hide the worry on his face.
"Sigh …" The white-robed young man with the temperament of a superior heaved a heavy sigh again. The anxiety and worry on his face did not lessen in the slightest.
Afterwards, the group of people waited outside the room for over four hours. Finally, an excited voice rang out from the room, "Patriarch, patriarch, madam Yun has given birth. Madam Yun has given birth. The mother and child are safe. It's a boy." The voice was filled with excitement.
Hearing this, the worried look on the face of the young man who was waiting anxiously outside the door was finally swept away. Instead, it was replaced by a face full of excitement and excitement. Then, without saying anything, he directly pushed open the door and disappeared in a flash. His speed was really unbelievably fast. It was definitely not an ability that an ordinary person could have.
The young man immediately arrived before a large bed in the room. He sat beside the bed and stared at the woman on the bed in concern. He said, "Yun 'er, how are you? Are you fine?" His voice was gentle and filled with concern.
The one lying on the bed was a young woman in her twenties. She was so beautiful that she could cause the downfall of a nation. She was simply a heavenly beauty. Her beautiful face was already dripping with fragrant sweat. Her complexion was slightly pale, and she looked exhausted.
The woman looked at the young man with exhaustion. She smiled and said, "Husband, I'm fine. Let me see our child."
"Alright! Alright! Alright! As long as Yun 'er is fine. " The young man smiled happily. He then turned to look at the midwife who was holding the child. Just as he was about to speak, he noticed that the midwife's brows were tightly knitted together. She stared strangely at the baby in his arms. She fiddled with the baby as she muttered, "Cry, cry. Child, why aren't you crying? That's strange. I've been a midwife for so long and I've given birth to at least a few hundred, if not a thousand. This is the first time I've seen a child who hasn't cried as soon as he was born."
At this time, the group of people outside also entered the room. Each of them had a smile on their faces as they congratulated the woman lying on the bed.
The middle-aged man smiled happily and gently said to the woman on the bed, "Yun 'er, lie down for a while. I'll bring the child over." Then, the young man got up and walked over to the midwife. He asked, "What's going on? Is there something wrong with the child?" The young man's voice sank slightly. Some children would be born with an innate emergency. This was a very common occurrence and it had happened quite a few times. He was really afraid that something had happened to his child.
Hearing this, the midwife looked bitter. She looked at the young man and said respectfully, "Master, I don't know if there's anything wrong with the young master. However, based on my decades of experience in midwifery, every child cries as soon as they're born. However, your young master's situation is a little different. Look, he hasn't cried at all as soon as he was born. This is very strange."
Hearing this, the young man frowned and looked at the baby in the midwife's arms. He saw that the baby's large, bright, and pure eyes were looking around. He would stare here and there for a moment. He was very adorable. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with him.
However, he did not notice that in the depths of the baby's bright and clear eyes, there was deep shock and disbelief.
Afterwards, the young man placed his hand on the baby and a hazy, earthen-yellow light suddenly appeared on his hand.
The midwife became slightly uneasy when she saw the young man's actions. She was only a lowly midwife, someone who lived at the bottom of society. She really was afraid that there was something wrong with the baby in her arms. Otherwise, if the young man blamed her, she would not be able to bear the consequences. Even though this matter had nothing to do with her, she had no ability to explain herself.
The young man pulled his hand back very quickly and finally relaxed. He smiled happily and said, "The child is fine. There's nothing wrong with him at all." With that, the young man took the baby from the midwife.
The midwife immediately let out a sigh of relief when she heard that. She finally relaxed and smiled happily, "Master is right. Perhaps this represents the young master's extraordinariness. The young master will definitely become a supreme expert in the future."
The young man could not help but laugh aloud when he heard the midwife's words, even though he knew that the chances were extremely slim. He said, "Good, good, good. Let's hope that's the case. Someone, tip mother Hong a hundred gold coins."
The midwife was overjoyed when she heard that. She immediately said excitedly, "Thank you for your reward, master. Thank you for your reward!"
The young man carried the baby over to the woman on the bed and said happily, "Yun 'er, look. This is our child. He's so cute."
The woman called Yun 'er hugged the baby and kissed his cheek affectionately. She said happily, "Husband, since the child is a boy, let's call him Changyang Shōten according to our previous agreement."
The young man laughed aloud, "That's right. I'll officially call him Changyang Shōten now. Someone, invite all the esteemed guests in Lore City. I'll hold a banquet in Changyang Prefecture tomorrow to celebrate …"
In the blink of an eye, a year had passed. In front of a small lake in a large courtyard, a boy less than a meter tall stood there in a daze. His eyes stared at the fake mountain in the center of the lake in a daze. The boy wore luxurious clothes, and his expression was extremely complicated. For a boy less than three years old to have such an expression, he seemed rather out of the ordinary.
