"You do remember my master!"
The fear in the Sword Longevity Monarch's eyes intensified.
Even though he knew that Ning Qi was as powerful as his master in his previous lives, Ning Qi was still just a junior in his eyes! As long as he followed his master's instructions and killed Ning Qi, everything would be settled.
But now, when he discovered that Ning Qi's memories actually remembered his master, the Sword Longevity Monarch, the fear in his heart surged like a flood. He could not stop it no matter what he did.
It was as if he was not facing a junior that he thought was infallible, but an old monster that was of the same generation as his master and that his master was constantly on guard against!
The Sword Longevity Monarch's current state made the Clear River City Lord's hands and legs tremble uncontrollably. His subordinates and nephews were already regretting what had happened today. However, they did not know that it was not their bad luck or a coincidence that things had turned out this way. The Clear River City Lord had purposely done this in order to climb on the Sword Longevity Monarch's coattails!
"That's right, I remember him."
Ning Qi smiled.
The Sword Longevity Monarch's heart skipped a beat when he saw the smile. "You promised …"
The power on his body changed rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the Sword Longevity Monarch had shrunk by a few years, returning to the appearance of a three or four year old. However, his body no longer changed, but his aura had plummeted. He no longer had the aura of a cultivator. He looked like an ordinary three or four year old child as he stared blankly at Ning Qi.
"Just what kind of technique is this …"
The Clear River City Lord felt his hair stand on end. A mighty emperor had turned into this in the blink of an eye. It was even more terrifying than having his life taken away.
It was easier for him to accept the death of an emperor, but he could not accept the fact that an emperor had returned to his natural state. His cultivation had been taken away, and even his consciousness seemed to have been lost!
"Xiao Lei."
Ning Qi smiled.
"Senior brother, I'm here."
Zhao Lei stepped forward.
"Bring him along. Let's return to the sect."
Ning Qi said.
Zhao Lei was slightly taken aback. She looked at the Sword Emperor Longevity with a strange expression. Then, she stepped forward and hugged him. The Sword Emperor Longevity was not afraid of making any noise. Instead, when Zhao Lei hugged him, the fear in his heart dissipated somewhat. His eyes were no longer dull, and they became much more spirited.
"The fact that he could become a Martial Monarch means that he has great potential. Hmm, with my Martial Monarch Mystic Art, I might be able to use this method to recruit all the geniuses …"
Ning Qi's mind moved slightly.
In this way, although he would lose some experience, he would have one more seed that could be nurtured into a Great Emperor. It was fine to do it occasionally.
Plop.
The Clear River City Lord suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times to Ning Qi. "Senior, what I did was forced by the Sword Emperor Longevity. I'm only a fifth-step cultivator, and I dare not disobey the Sword Emperor Longevity's order. Please give me a chance to turn over a new leaf on account of the fact that I haven't made a huge mistake yet."
His nephew and his subordinates were dumbfounded, but they had also guessed the whole story. The Clear River City Lord's nephew had a strange expression. He subconsciously looked at Chen Zhong and Ming Xiong, but he immediately saw their furious gazes. He quickly lowered his head, and his body was trembling.
This time, he had really been tricked by his Eldest Uncle. Up until now, how could he not know that the sudden disappearance of the item on his body was definitely his Eldest Uncle's doing, and it was not stolen by Chen Zhong and the other man at all!
"Let's go."
Ning Qi smiled and turned to leave.
When Zhao Lei and the others saw this, they felt a little strange. However, seeing that Ning Qi had no intention of denouncing them, they did not dare to say anything and left with Sword Emperor Longevity.
Seeing that Ning Qi and the others were about to walk out of the courtyard, the owner of the Clear River Town let out a long sigh of relief in his heart. His forehead was covered with dense cold sweat. He was lucky to be able to keep his life this time.
"No, I have to report this to the Supreme Saint Assembly. Otherwise, the Sword Emperor Longevity will disappear in my Clear River City, and I'll be the scapegoat. With the Supreme Saint Assembly protecting me, he probably won't come after me."
The owner of Clear River Town immediately began to rack his brains, thinking about how to deal with this matter safely.
However, just as Ning Qi and the others left the courtyard, four long swords suddenly fell from the surroundings of the courtyard. The four long swords floated in the air in different directions.
"This is?"
The Clear River City Lord stood up in shock.
However, before he could react, the four long swords had already pierced through everyone's hearts. The terrifying power even chased after the connection between them and the immortal palaces, causing the immortal palaces hidden in the void to shatter.
In less than half a breath's time, the only living person in the courtyard was the Clear River City Lord. The rumbling of the immortal palaces collapsing could be heard in the void. His subordinates and nephew's miserable cries could be heard. A trace of despair appeared in the Clear River City Lord's eyes. He looked at the courtyard door with extreme resentment, "Zhi —"
Before he could finish speaking, the four long swords pierced through his body at the same time. He died on the spot. At the same time, in a grand immortal palace hidden in the void, the Clear River City Lord's primordial spirit opened its eyes and was about to flee with the immortal palace in fear. However, in the next moment, the four long swords appeared again and instantly destroyed his immortal palace.
The Clear River City Lord's primordial spirit stood alone in the void and looked at the long swords floating around him. He was filled with despair. The destruction of his primordial spirit meant that he was truly dead. Although he could still reincarnate according to the rules of reincarnation, he would no longer have anything to do with his next life!
Even if he cultivated to the Rebirth realm in his next life, he wouldn't be able to recall any memories of this life. That was because he would be completely destroyed in this life!
"Can't you just give me a way out …"
The Clear River City Lord murmured to himself.
The four long swords destroyed his primordial spirit at the same time before disappearing into the void.

Moon Elephant Sect.
"You'll be in charge of this kid from now on."
Ning Qi looked at the Sword Emperor Longevity and rubbed his head gently while smiling at Zhao Lei.
"Senior Brother, he … won't remember anything, right?"
Zhao Lei smiled bitterly.
She was only a low-level cultivator, yet she had to take care of a terrifying existence who was once a Great Emperor. This made her feel uneasy.
A hint of confusion appeared in the Sword Emperor Longevity's eyes. He clearly didn't understand what the two were talking about.
"I can't remember. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. From now on, you'll be called Zhao Changsheng."
Ning Qi smiled at the Sword Emperor Longevity.
"Zhao Changsheng."
The Sword Emperor Longevity repeated in a child's voice. He seemed to understand, but not really.
