Qin Lian closed her eyes and sighed. Then she said to Shen Liuyun, "Saintess, it's time. I feel the call of the Mother Goddess."
But in the next moment, the corrosive liquid was pushed back and splashed in all directions, drenching the guards in the formation. They immediately screamed in pain, and then stopped. In a short moment, they had been corroded into a pile of white bones.
The surging sword energy suddenly spread out, as if it was "invincible". All the buildings along the way were cut in half. Only the Sea Cloud Shrine was safe and sound under the support of an inexplicable power. But the scene was shocking enough. Except for the shrine, almost ten palaces were destroyed. It was like the end of the world.
The sword energy suddenly shrank. The scene became quiet. All eyes were focused on Yan Li. He just stood there quietly. Li Ya, together with its sheath, floated beside him, symbolizing the completion of the magical sword control. When their eyes met the killing intent on his face, they felt a chill in their hearts.
"You …" Seeing hundreds of his clansmen turn into skeletons, Shi Shen felt as if there was a fire boiling in his heart. He roared, dashed into the side hall in three to five steps, and leaped high into the air. "The Ultimate Strength of One Arm, Ten Elephants!" His right arm suddenly expanded several times, and smashed towards Yan Li with a terrifying gale.
Yan Li didn't even look at Shi Shen and walked out. Without the guidance of the sword spell, Li Ya bounced out and collided with Shi Shen's fist. The sword trembled and suddenly came out of its sheath.
Shi Shen first felt a huge force hitting cotton, then felt a fatal crisis. His heart trembled and he suddenly dodged backward while protecting himself with his giant arm.
Chi!
Although he dodged in time, a large piece of his flesh was cut off. He suddenly rolled out of the hall. Blood flowed and he almost fainted from the pain.
Hidden Sword Spell?
Shi Shen didn't expect that the ultimate skill he had practiced for more than thirty years couldn't even touch a finger of the opponent.
"Big Brother!" Fu Cai and Yu Jun shouted together, each showing grief and indignation. They also rushed toward Yan Li.
"Stop! You're not his match!" Qin Kong quickly stopped him and said to Shen Liuyun, "Saintess, please enter the hall immediately for the inheritance ceremony. I'll stop him!" With that, she floated up into the air.
"You think you can block it?!" Yan Li stomped hard on the ground.
He soared into the air, and the Separation Cliff automatically fell to his feet. He stared at Qin Lian with sharp eyes. "From the moment I entered, I felt that all of your power came from this temple. Your Mother Goddess has reincarnated for thousands of years and hasn't returned. I believe your power must be extremely weak. I can kill you with one sword. Do you know that?"
Qin Kong's expression was cold as she said, "So what?"
"If you let me and my aunt go, I won't make things difficult for the Sea Tribe!" Yan Li said.
"Impossible!" Qin Kong said resolutely.
The killing intent in Yan Li's eyes poured out uncontrollably, "High Priest, you'd better agree to my conditions while I can still restrain myself, otherwise …"
"Otherwise what?" Qin Kong said.
Yan Li was furious. He stretched out his hand and clenched the air. The Nine Cloud Sword Palace suddenly appeared without any warning. It was as if they had always been there. The sword qi whistled fiercely. One of the swords fell into his hand and slashed out.
"High Priest!" The Sea Tribe shouted in shock.
Qin Kong's face turned pale, but she clenched her teeth and didn't retreat.
"Bai Fan!"
A voice that was a mixture of anger and disappointment suddenly sounded. Yan Li's hand trembled. He didn't slash down in the end. He turned to look at Shen Liuyun and said with slight fear, "Aunt …" It was the first time he heard Shen Liuyun call his name so sternly. She sounded like a child who had done something wrong.
Shen Liuyun's face was full of disappointment and coldness. She said, "Do you know what you're doing?"
"I want to save you …" Yan Li said bitterly.
Shen Liuyun said coldly, "No, you're trying to kill your savior!"
Yan Li's heart trembled.
Shen Liuyun continued, "You indulge your desires and want to force your will on others. But have you ever thought about how much effort the Sea Tribe put into creating the Kun Boat to enter the Evil Prison to search for you? The High Priest contributed seventy percent of the Sea Cloud Divine Palace's savings. Do you know what that means? It means that the Sea Tribe has to take the huge risk of the human world discovering the Sea Cloud Divine Palace. They have to transport the unique treasures from the bottom of the sea and sell them in exchange for food to maintain the Sea Tribe's survival. Tell me, do you want to be like Li Xueyi, an ungrateful and capricious demon? "
"I know that killing is evil …"
I know that killing is evil … "Yan Li said bitterly," Killing one is evil … I always thought that no one had the right to judge me for my evil deeds … But I have a bottom line. I can't do ungrateful things … "As he spoke, he fell to the ground. Of course, the technique couldn't judge good and evil. Good and evil were just subjective thoughts. Because the sword heart was unstable, the sword soul immediately retreated from the cliff and returned to the Source Sea.
Shen Liuyun continued, "What's more, you said you would save me? Why would you think that I want to be 'saved' by you? You only want to possess me. Have you ever considered my feelings? Have you ever respected my wishes? I am a person. I have my own thoughts and decisions. I need to be treated with equal respect. I shouldn't be treated as your private property or property! "
Yan Li's mind suffered a series of blows. He shook his head and said, "No, no, it's not like that. Aunt, listen to me. I only want you to be happy!"
"Little Fan, will I really be happy if I leave with you?" Shen Liuyun's eyes were filled with tears.
Yan Li's mind shook again. He couldn't speak anymore.
Shen Liuyun said with tears, "If I felt happy, I wouldn't have been devoured by the Innate Cauldron! In terms of morality, I owe the Sea Tribe, and in terms of morality, I have corrupted their customs. A great man once said, 'There are only two things in the world that can shake the soul. One is the brilliant starry sky above our heads. The other is the noble moral principles in our hearts.' I always call you a wild child. It's because you didn't stay by your brother's side since you were young. You didn't receive more education … The past can't be made up for. No matter what, I still hope that you can be a righteous and kind person. So I can't set a worse example for you. Little Fan … "
She walked over, squatted down and cupped Yan Li's face. She leaned down and kissed his forehead. Then, she let go of him and said with a smile, "Always remember, even if you are standing above the starry sky, you have to be respectful. We can't lose ourselves and be slaves to our desires. " She stood up, turned around and ascended the stairs. When she reached the tenth step, her footsteps paused for a moment. Then, she walked towards the door without hesitation.
"Aunt …" Yan Li opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. Perhaps he had completely understood Shen Liuyun's choice from the moment he fell.
Before Shen Liuyun stepped into the hall, she turned around and smiled sweetly at Yan Li. "Little Fan, don't worry. We will meet again. I will turn into smoke and clouds to protect you. "
