Third? Zhang Juetian
Shui Yuntian had already figured out Ye Wuchen's intentions from what he had said earlier. His heart thumped. He did not know what method Ye Wuchen was going to use to destroy Nanhuangzong, but he chose to believe him without any reason. This was the blood of the Southern Emperor. The Southern Emperor's Holy Lord was engraved in his bones. There was no need for any reason, and his loyalty would not waver or change.
Ye Wuchen said, "If you say so, then I can rest assured." He paused for a moment before continuing, "Nanhuangzong's influence is spread all over the world. You know its vastness better than I do. Although less than one-fifth of Nanhuangzong's population has gathered here, almost all of them are top-notch experts. This is also the source of Nanhuangzong's dominance over the world. As long as Nanhuangzong's source is destroyed, the entire Nanhuangzong will be in chaos for a long time, and it might even collapse. "
"Holy Lord, what do you want?"
Ever since Ye Wuchen entered this place and used the Star Slashing Sword to restore his freedom, he did not ask Shui Yuntian what he should ask in this situation. He did not tell Shui Yuntian his background, how he found this place, or how he came here. He did not bring Shui Yuntian away immediately. Instead, he directly asked an extremely sharp question. Suddenly, Shui Yuntian felt like he was not a person who had been locked up for a full 23 years and had just been rescued by Ye Wuchen. Instead, he had followed him and been loyal to him for a long time. At this moment, he was talking about the important matters of the sect. His attention also began to focus on every word that Ye Wuchen said. The eagerness to rush out and see the world again that had occupied his heart was also quietly suppressed.
"Today, this place … the source of Nanhuangzong, even if we don't completely destroy it, at least half of it will be destroyed." Ye Wuchen pointed at the ground and calmly said something that shocked Shui Yuntian.
"Then …"
"You don't need to ask. It won't be long before you find out." Ye Wuchen raised his hand and interrupted him. Shui Yuntian nodded slightly. Although he had many questions in his heart, he did not ask any further.
Ye Wuchen stretched out his left hand and took out the items that he had prepared a few days ago from the Divine Sword Ring: a set of black nocturnal clothes, scissors, a wooden comb, and other items for bathing and combing. Finally, he summoned a huge water pouch. Even without Ye Wuchen's explanation, Shui Yuntian knew what it was for.
"Sword God Ring." Shui Yuntian glanced at Ye Wuchen's left hand and said with a sigh, "Back then, I met Senior Chu by chance and was impressed by his spirit. I haven't seen you for more than twenty years. You've changed a lot. I wonder how many people I remember still remember me. "
Holding Oculum's hand, Ye Wuchen turned around and walked away. Behind him, Shui Yuntian's voice rang out, "Sect Master, why don't you leave immediately?"
"Now is not the time." Ye Wuchen knew that Shui Yuntian would definitely ask this question. Without turning around, he replied, "This is the best place for you to hide. Once everything has calmed down, I will naturally bring you away. What you need to do now is to change your clothes. After today, no one will know that you have left this place. They will only think that you have died. Furthermore, your son, Shui Wuque, is with me. Your wife, Shui Fu Er, has already been brought out of Nanhuangzong by your daughter, Shui Mengchan. As for those who were loyal to your father, they have already been transferred out of this core area. So, no matter what happens in Nanhuangzong today, you don't need to worry about it. "
After hearing Ye Wuchen's words, the nervousness and pressure in Shui Yuntian's heart disappeared without a trace … Indeed, all his worries and worries over the past few years had already been properly arranged. No matter what happened in Nanhuangzong today, he did not need to feel any pressure at all. Even if it was really destroyed, what did it have to do with him … because this was no longer his "Nanhuangzong". The hatred that he had accumulated over the past few years had caused him to hate this place to the bone. If it was destroyed, he would instead feel more joy.
Behind him, the sound of splashing water could be heard. From head to toe, every single hair on Shui Yuntian's body was trembling slightly. Because he knew that from today onwards, he, Shui Yuntian, would finally be able to see the light of day again. He would be able to start a completely different life. He would be able to take back everything that belonged to him, and release the unforgettable hatred that he had accumulated over the past twenty years.
Ye Wuchen picked Oculum up from the ground and cradled her little head in his arms. He stared blankly at the place that was shining with light in front of him, and said softly in her ear, "Oculum … if anything happens today, you must protect Cher and yourself well, understand?"
Oculum, "..."
In the past, whenever she heard Ye Wuchen say something that she did not understand, she would raise her head and look at him, using her gaze to express her doubts. But this time, she forcefully shrunk into his embrace, both her hands grabbing tightly onto the clothes in front of his chest. She was completely unaware that she had already torn his clothes apart. Although she had arrived much later than Ye Wuchen, she had already begun to realize something from the approaching danger. The tiny Sky Punishment Blade that she had always hidden in her sleeves had already begun to flicker with a sinister, bloodthirsty light.
Time passed, minute by minute, second by second. Every second felt like an eternity. Ye Wuchen waited in silence. He hoped that time would pass more slowly, but at the same time, he also hoped that time would pass more quickly, so that he could escape from this disaster that was bound to come sooner.
At this moment, Nanhuangzong was not as quiet as it seemed. Everywhere, there were repair works being carried out, rebuilding or repairing the damage caused by the battle between Oculum and the four strongest people in Nanhuangzong. No one noticed that the Maiden of Sky Punishment had already entered Nanhuangzong again, and no one could have imagined that a calamity was rapidly approaching Nanhuangzong.
"Holy Master."
When he heard the call, Ye Wuchen turned around and looked at Shui Yuntian, who had already finished dressing up. He had changed out of his clothes that could no longer cover his body, and in its place was a set of nocturnal clothes that fitted him perfectly. His hair and beard, which had grown so long over the past twenty years, had also been trimmed neatly. His entire body was no longer as dirty and messy as before.
"Indeed, you look exactly the same." Ye Wuchen stared at the current Shui Yuntian, and could not help but sigh.
He had not seen the light of day for more than twenty years, and there was a strange layer of paleness on his entire body. However, this could not conceal his innate and aloof temperament. His body was handsome, his expression solemn, and his eyebrows slanted slightly. He had the demeanor of someone who was in a superior position without being angry. He was exactly the same as the Shui Yunlan that Ye Wuchen had seen before. However, he was the true Sect Leader of Nanhuangzong — Shui Yuntian.
"This shocking coincidence has brought you a great disaster. Have you ever hated this heaven-made coincidence?" Ye Wuchen sighed.
Shui Yuntian smiled casually, and said, "Because I am strangely similar to that bastard, Shui Yunlan, they used this to set up a perfect evil plan. However, even if there was no such shocking coincidence, they would still have chosen other methods to avoid it. However … my ancestors have been searching for the Divine Lord for countless generations, and they have not found any results even after thousands of years. However, I am fortunate enough to see the Sword Of Emperor Nan and the Divine Lord's true appearance in my lifetime. Even if I have to endure this great suffering, it is still a gift from the heavens to me. "
"Hahahaha," Ye Wuchen laughed loudly, and praised, "Such a breadth of mind, as expected of the true Nanhuang Suzerain."
Shui Yuntian shook his head, and said with a profound meaning, "Compared to the Divine Lord, I am still far behind. To be recognized by the Sword Of Emperor Nan as its master …"
Before Shui Yuntian could finish his sentence, he saw Ye Wuchen suddenly turn around, and furrow his brows as he looked towards the sky. His previously calm face revealed an incomparably grave expression. Oculum, who had been lying in his arms, suddenly raised his head, and a frightening black light shot out from his eyes.
Shui Yuntian knew that they must have discovered something. He immediately stopped talking, and focused his senses on his surroundings.
At this moment, an unexpected guest suddenly appeared in the sky above Nanhuangzong. His arrival caused everyone in Nanhuangzong, who had yet to walk out from the shadow of the Lady of Heavenly Punishment, to become cautious. Furthermore, this person's attire …
Thick and heavy purple battle armor covered his chest and legs, and two rings of gauntlets encircled his wrists. He wore a pair of purple battle boots, and half of his arms and legs were exposed, revealing his iron-like skin. On his head, he also wore a purple helmet. Under the helmet was an extremely ordinary face, but this ordinary face seemed to be covered with an incomparably heavy aura. Just a glance at it would cause one to feel a suffocating pressure.
His figure was much larger than an ordinary person, and at a rough glance, he was actually more than three meters tall. In his hands, there was a long spear that was similar in length to his body. The purple long spear occasionally flashed with bursts of purple lightning, accompanied by the "zi zi" sound of thunder and lightning. Behind him, the purple cloak fluttered in the wind. He was like a deity that had descended from the heavens, majestically looking down at the tens of thousands of lives below him.
His appearance was accompanied by an enormous pressure that could collapse the heavens. It caused everyone in Nanhuangzong — from Sect Master Shui Yunlan, who had not come out for several days to the servant girl who had brought water — to change their expressions. Among them, no one had ever felt such a heavy pressure before. Or perhaps, it could be said that they had never imagined that a person could release such a heavy pressure with just his aura.
Those who could stay in the core area of Nanhuangzong were all experts. They walked out of their houses in shock and looked at the person in the sky … The sky was clearly clear and cloudless, but they could feel the dark clouds covering the sky, bringing with it a heavy pressure that pressed down on the depths of their hearts.
The position he was floating in was very high. As Nanhuangzong stared at him, he stared down at the same time. Only his gaze was constantly moving, as if he was looking for something.
Although he did not move at all, the pressure made these experts feel as if their bodies were being squashed. Every time they took a breath, it would consume a lot more energy than usual. This pressure was many times stronger than the terrifying dark attack that the Lady of Heavenly Punishment had unleashed.
Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of the Nanhuangzong experts. In the deathly silence, the sound of sweat falling to the ground became so clear that it could be heard. Who would believe in the existence of a person who could make no one in Nanhuangzong dare to make a sound?
And now, he had really appeared in front of them.
Who … was he!?
