455: Chapter 104 Sword Spirit Xiao Shuang
“Sister…
I…
I finally see you.”
After Sword Spirit Xiao Xue recovered, she rubbed her eyes like a little girl, flew out of the Flying Sword as the Sword Spirit, and then looked at the Netherworld Queen, suddenly bursting into tears of joy.
“You still rember
as your sister…
I’m sorry, sister.”
“Sister, I knew you were in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sword Tomb, I knew you were suffering, so I always pushed Brother Zhou Yan to cultivate the Dual Sword Souls, then find you…
Brother Zhou Yan, Brother Zhou Yan…
Oh, the master…
the master…”
Sword Spirit Xiao Xue seed to recall many past events, and after a mont of joy, her expression turned blank, because she thought of her master—Feng Lingqing.
“Is this your new mory?
It’s good to be carefree.
Your master is dead, which ans she wasn’t blessed enough to endure you as a Sword Spirit, so you should just find another master.
Or, you can live with
in Frost Tears, evolve and cultivate by yourself, and no longer need humans as your masters.”
The Netherworld Queen spoke softly.
“Sister, I don’t rember, nor want to rember, things from too long ago.
My master isn’t dead; she’s still alive, but her condition doesn’t seem too good, so I can’t leave her.
This ti, it was Brother Zhou Yan who helped , otherwise I would have already died.
Sister, I said once Brother Zhou Yan found you, you would beco his Sword Spirit, is that okay?”
Xiao Shuang, with tears in her eyes, looked at the Netherworld Queen innocently and naively.
The Netherworld Queen didn’t answer but instead, gently caressed the cheeks of Sword Spirit Xiao Shuang and spoke softly: “What cos to us cos from Heaven’s will.
You’ve lost your past mories and gained new ones, yet you still rely on him; that’s an imprint in your bones.
But I, sister, have already sworn never to be anyone’s Sword Spirit again.
Sister Bai Ying is already living a tragic life, subsisting within the body of White Fox as a Residual Soul, and now I can only exist in the form of the Netherworld Sword Spirit, all thanks to him…”
The Netherworld Queen murmured to herself, but Sword Spirit Xiao Shuang seed unable to understand.
The Netherworld Queen mocked herself with a smile and said, “The past will eventually turn to dust; the living must keep walking.”
Continuing, she glanced outside the circle of light at Qingyao, Yu Ning, and others who were still suffering and suddenly said, “So now, you’re called ‘Zhou Yan’?”
“Yes.”
Zhou Yan nodded.
“Zhou Yan, Lei Yan King.
You are a king, a born ruler, with a supre destiny.
Your life is precious, and everyone must bow to you, everyone else is just ants, you are supre, everyone else is just a toy in your eyes, to be picked up when rembered, discarded to the cold palace when forgotten, or if tired of playing, killed with a single strike and dismbered.
In this world, no one counts as a person compared to you…”
The words of the Netherworld Queen were laden with irony.
Zhou Yan’s brow furrowed; though he killed without batting an eye, he was not a heartless brute who treated people as toys.
With such irony in the Netherworld Queen’s words, what profound resentnt must she hold?
“You also said, the past is past, and now is now.
You only see the past , have you seen the present ?
If I really were as you describe, would I still let you say these things?”
Zhou Yan’s face also took on an unpleasant look, the Netherworld Queen seed a bit too presumptuous.
“Yes, it’s just because you are not strong enough now.
Once you are strong enough, the outco will be the sa.
Anyway, discussing this does not matter, you value loyalty, so do you want them to die, or do you want them to live?”
The Netherworld Queen suddenly said, looking at those suffering outside the circle of light.
“I want them to live.
What should I do?”
“I can teach you a way to split yourself into six to replace them.
They can be spared from suffering and torture, but you alone will have to bear all their pain and torture.
Are you willing?”
The Netherworld Queen revealed a disdainful smile and mocked.
Zhou Yan’s brow furrowed and said, “If I do this, are they guaranteed not to die?”
“Yes.”
“Can they safely leave Frost Tears?”
“That depends on your performance.
If you satisfy , they can naturally live.
If I’m not satisfied, they will still die.”
The Netherworld Queen spoke indifferently.
“So in the end, you just want to torture ?”
Zhou Yan said coldly.
“You may think so, but apart from this, they have no other way to survive, because there’s no need for any trials or adventures.
Their hope of survival lies with you.
Look at your map, and you’ll understand—it’s truly ‘Only I Am Supre’.
Your map alone is billions of tis larger than the combination of maps of six others; how can anyone compete?”
The Netherworld Queen’s words were again full of irony.
Zhou Yan wanted to explain that it was simply because he had obtained the Primordial Magnetic Pole Light, but after a mont’s thought, he refrained.
“You know, my relationship with them isn’t exactly close.”
Zhou Yan thought aloud.
“Yes, even if they were close, even if they could be considered your won, once there’s danger, you would still find a way to protect yourself and sever ties, wouldn’t you?!”
The Netherworld Queen, as if anticipating such responses, spoke with contempt.
“What I’m saying isn’t to sever ties but to tell you that even if my relationship with them isn’t great, even though so of them have been disdainful and mocked , since I’m leading the team, I will do my utmost to ensure they survive.
So, I’m willing to endure that suffering.
I know you hold a grudge against , perhaps because I didn’t do well enough in the past, but it doesn’t matter; you may take your frustration out as you see fit.”
“I seek nothing else but hope that the Holy Daughter, Jia Yongheng, Zhuge Jiayue, Si Yuan, and Yan Ran can survive.
As for Qingyao, I cannot see through her, nor do I wish to have any relation with her.
She has her own motives for coming here, so even though I have borne her tornt, everything about her, I truly do not care.”
“In the order I ntioned, if my power is limited, I will only protect those I should in that order.
Moreover, the world is cruel, and my own strength is limited; I might not be able to protect anyone.
So, if I have tried my best and still cannot protect them, then it does not matter; I will have no regrets.”
Zhou Yan said all this very calmly.
These words, very calmly, were as if he were making his last will.
The Netherworld Queen was finally moved.
Her eyes flickered as she gazed at Zhou Yan, seemingly questioning the truth of his words.
“Sister, Brother Zhou Yan is actually really nice…”
Sword Spirit Xiao Xue cooed.
She was speaking well of Zhou Yan.
But the Netherworld Queen did not listen, still staring into Zhou Yan’s eyes.
Zhou Yan did not look away, and t the Netherworld Queen’s gaze.
“I’m really curious, are you deceiving , have you forgotten the past, or is all this just for your own sake, deliberately so?”
The voice of the Netherworld Queen held a clear tone of skepticism.
But her words seed casual, as if no matter what Zhou Yan did, she would no longer care.
Zhou Yan was suddenly shaken, even though he knew that the Netherworld Queen seed to have been deeply hurt, and her words carried strong resentnt.
Still, hearing such words and seeing such a sorrowful look in her eyes, Zhou Yan felt sowhat uncomfortable.
“Teach
that Clone Technique then.
I know that whatever I say actually has no aning; you probably think so too.”
Zhou Yan gave a bitter smile and finally stopped saying much.
In fact, the Netherworld Queen, or rather, Sword Spirit Xiao Shuang, had given Zhou Yan an indescribable feeling.
This feeling let Zhou Yan know that there might have been so mistakes in the past.
The past no longer exists, the future has not yet occurred, and now everything has changed; words are useless.
What can be done now is to let himself bear so things, to prevent the Holy Daughter and the others from being tortured by this inexplicable murderous intent of Heaven and Earth, to lessen their pain.
“Actually, you should also know the thod, and you know that it involves severing your realm, severing your body, self-splitting.
I believe you know how to do this.
If you really don’t know, I don’t mind taking action to sever you myself.”
The Netherworld Queen sneered.
She looked at Zhou Yan coldly, as if always questioning everything he did as hypocritical, rely to achieve so goal.
Zhou Yan gazed deeply back at the Netherworld Queen.
He knew that the Netherworld Queen was not lying because, from within the circle of light, Zhou Yan saw a massive accumulation of Disaster Qi and death Qi.
If he did not act, the probability of the Holy Daughter and the others perishing was over ninety percent.
“I should do sothing for them…”
Zhou Yan’s heart was very calm.
At this mont, under the gaze of the Netherworld Queen, Zhou Yan took out his Broken Worry Sword and struck himself.
…
Purple Fla Void.
“It seems that Frost Immortality’s resentnt is great.”
Ni Chang Fairy sensed the situation outside and could not help but give a bitter smile.
“Ah, so things are bound to happen.
We just don’t interfere, and there’s no way to interfere with this matter.”
“Let’s just hope everything turns out well, but I don’t know what the Primordial Magnetic Pole Light from Wan Jian Tian ans.”
“Who knows?
Back then, Wan Jian Tian was the most mysterious, inscrutable to anyone.”
“I wonder what Lee Ran would think if he saw this scene.”
“He can’t see it; he has already perished.
Otherwise, Zhou Yan wouldn’t have ended up in this situation.”
“This involves great karma, intricate and complex.”
“Perhaps, the one from Thunder Fla Breaking Path Mountain needs to co out to resolve it.”
“He himself might not even be safe.”
“If Bai Ying has recovered, then there might actually be hope.”
“Bai Ying, as the White Fox, is in a Residual Soul state.
It’s hard to say whether she can even stay alive.”
“Didn’t Zhou Yan go to Thunder Fla Breaking Path Mountain?
Maybe there’s a chance there…”
“It’s difficult.
Right now, I’m worried that any change in Zhou Yan’s situation might activate the Evil King’s Holy Artifact Scythe, triggering a terrible event again.”
“The Evil King’s weapon is suppressed in this space, and Zhou Yan has not used it.
You don’t need to worry about this.”
