Most of the vengeance in this world had not been thought through, because those who had thought it through would know that what the dead really wanted was for the living to live on, and not for them to live in pain because of their death.
Orange Dress' appearance was sudden, her death was sudden. Only when her blood sprayed onto Yu Qiuyu's face did the latter realize something, finally realize how unwise and impulsive this vengeance was. They didn't properly understand Li Ku's strength, only relying on their anger and bravery to treat their fantasy as reality.
The scorching heat that roasted Yu Qiuyu's soul was like a fiend that clung onto his body, reaching out its claws with a sinister smile, tearing open his chest. The blade-like claws stabbed deeply into his heart, making it stop beating. This type of pain, if it was anyone else, they might have immediately died. However, after his heart stopped beating for a moment, it suddenly began to beat even more powerfully.
Dong dong!
Dong dong!
When the bystanders heard this, it was as if a mountain was crushing down on their hearts, heavy to the point where they couldn't breathe. They saw that all of the color in Yu Qiuyu's body had disappeared, as if all of the blood in his heart had been sucked out, and only then did this type of abnormal sound be released.
"Ah!"
A heart tearing lung splitting cry of pain tore at their eardrums, gripping their hearts, ruling over everything in the darkness. Right at this time, the heavenly light tenaciously tore through the thick dark clouds, casting down the first strand of light of all things' revival. The light scattered the clamor, the world entering a state of silence, all the way until a clap of thunder sounded, a will that was even more powerful than before awakening.
If one were to say that before, Yu Qiuyu's will for vengeance was passive, then right now, it was active. This desire that couldn't be any stronger was chewed and swallowed by his soul. Right now, every breath he took was for the sake of vengeance. There was already no life force to be seen from his body, only a strand of light left in his eyes, the light of death.
"Qiuyu, hurry and stop!" Huang Shaoyu's heart couldn't help but sink. Orange Dress' death, in his eyes, wasn't that big of a deal, but if Yu Qiuyu died here, this price was something he couldn't pay. He made his way through the ground, grabbing Yu Qiuyu's shoulder and fiercely shaking it, eyes completely blood red. "Little bastard, did you hear me when I told you to stop?!"
Peng!
An invisible force bounced Huang Shaoyu away.
Yu Qiuyu's body that only had a soul left suddenly moved, the Thirteen Styles piercing towards Li Ku without any flourishes. This process wasn't fast. When the blade passed through the void, a conical air stream appeared strand after strand.
When it approached Li Ku, it suddenly crushed Xiansheng True Monarch's void wall.
A hint of shock flashed past Li Ku's eyes, the corners of his lips slowly producing a smile. "As a swordsman, you are qualified." The number of people he had acknowledged in this life could be counted on one hand. The change in his attitude also meant that he was about to become serious. By the time the Thirteen Strokes of Melody reached three feet away, he had already closed his eyes. If one were to ask him why he closed his eyes, it was naturally because he was preparing. Even if it was only for a moment, the change in his aura was enough to make one's heart jump. The old flute was slowly handed over.
Boom!
From the surface, there were no heaven shocking irregular scenes around either side, to the extent where one couldn't even sense the aura of the Deity Realm. However, in the cultivation system, the Deity Realm was only a dividing line, unrelated to whether one was powerful or not. The force of the collision spread in all directions, the center the most berserk, to the extent where it even rushed into the clouds, blasting open a hole in the sky dome.
The raging thunderclouds were stimulated, as if they were offended by heavenly might, rumbling and exploding. In less than two breaths of time, torrential rain poured down.
Everyone cast their eyes towards the battlefield again, only seeing Yu Qiuyu's body turn into ashes inch by inch like charcoal that ran out of heat.
"Qiuyu!" Huang Shaoyu screamed out, rushing over.
Yu Qiuyu's withered body seemed to have sensed something. He slowly turned around, revealing a calm smile. "Sorry." When Huang Shaoyu arrived, he only grabbed a handful of ashes. He threw this handful of ashes into the muddy water, crying and laughing at the same time.
"Huang Shaoyu, stand up like a man!" Ji Hyun-woon said loudly. Her next attack was already completed.
"Li Ku!" Huang Shaoyu crawled up, staring rigidly at Li Ku. Then, he suddenly squatted down, his hands fiercely stabbing straight into the earth. The earth around Li Ku began to bubble with gulu gulu sounds, moreover releasing ferocious roars. Several large bubbles rushed out with huala noises. Mud dragons with complete whiskers and horns rushed out, nine in total, tangling about Li Ku like a tangled mess.
"Is living that hard to bear?" Li Ku expressed disdain. Then, his expression changed, becoming completely cold. This time, he didn't give Ji Hyun-woon a chance to attack at all. With him at the center, hundreds to over a thousand cracks suddenly appeared in a range of a hundred zhang. The cracks continuously expanded, linking up with each other. The fragments broke apart inch by inch, the cracks continuously spreading towards Huang and Ji, looking like they were about to devour the two of them. Before the two of them could react at all, both of them suddenly disappeared.
"Traitor!" Li Ku said.
Li Ku's angry eyes jumped, but his expression quickly disappeared. He turned around and headed towards the city gate tower.
No one expected the situation to change so quickly. Even Zhuang Kuoting stared blankly, not expecting Li Ku's target to change just like that. He was about to attack, not even giving himself any time to catch his breath.
When the two Heaven Worship disciples heard this, they thought that Li Ku was referring to Bai Xing, but when they saw Bai Xing standing there without moving, they knew that it wasn't her. Fu Jian's eyes shifted, and then he said by Shen Tun's ears, "Follow those two's scent, see who saved them. If you find them, immediately come back and tell me. Remember, don't take action against them on your own."
Shen Tun nodded his head and sniffed the remaining smell in the air. He turned around and walked towards the direction of Tian Jing. When he reached the city wall, he stretched out his hand and forcefully tore a hole in the wall. Very quickly, he tore open a passage in the wall that was hundreds of feet thick. Fu Jian was shocked. He didn't expect the one who saved them to run into Tianjing. Or perhaps it was someone from Tianjing?
The guards on the city wall didn't notice that the iron wall they relied on to protect their lives was exposed to danger just like that. However, when faced with Li Ku who was gradually approaching, who would have the mind to pay attention to that little corner?
Zhuang Kuoting reached out his hand, and a golden light climbed up from his palm like a flame. There was a layer of golden light circulating around his body, as if he was wearing a golden cloak. "You really are impressive. You just came to seek revenge, yet you killed him just like that. That is Yu Jianzi, aren't you afraid that the Court Of Sword will punish you?"
"I can choke to death just by eating, aren't you afraid?" Li Ku sneered.
Zhuang Kuoting said, "You are always so full of yourself, treating everything as if it's normal, disregarding the rules. I didn't like you back at the Education Palace! "
Li Ku's footsteps didn't stop. "What a coincidence, I also hate how serious you are."
Zhuang Kuoting said, "Do you know why Teacher Zhao sacrificed himself to seal you?"
"I don't need to know."
"Because you are a monster he condoned!"
Li Ku stopped, staring at Zhuang Kuoting.
Right at this time, on the other side of Tianjing, a tremendous explosion sounded.
On the city wall, Zhang Jingfu suddenly turned around. His face that hadn't changed since the start of the battle suddenly became ashen. "The Branch Wing Formation … has been broken!"
