Huh!
The cold wind blew, rustling the leaves.
As if hearing footsteps from behind, the lodious sound of the guqin gradually ceased, but the reverberating echoes still wafted through the heavens and earth, as hazy as mist.
The woman in white lifted the guqin from her knees, turned around, and revealed a face of cold and stunning beauty.
She seed to have so foreign ancestry, with distinct features and a high nose bridge. Yet, her skin was very pale, resembling carved ice and snow, standing gracefully before Su Heng, deep in the shadow cast by the Bodhi Tree. Her stance was elegant, with an unreal sense of illusion.
"For ages untold, tis unknown. I’ve long slumbered in these snowy mountains, why do you disturb my peaceful dream?" the woman looked towards Su Heng, her eyes deep and calm as she spoke.
"The Mythical Battlefield descends, chaos reigns across the lands, war ignites on all sides,"
Su Heng’s scrutinizing gaze lingered on her before he replied, "In the magnificent panorama I have created, there is no place reserved for the three major Esoteric Sects. I deem them as threats to be eliminated, including the most ancient White Tower Temple."
"As you see, the White Tower Temple has now turned into history," the woman in white replied.
"Perhaps..."
Su Heng scoffed, sneering, "But in my eyes, your existence is more dangerous than White Tower Temple."
"Do you think I’m a hazard?" the woman in white replied, "But since the dynasty to which I belonged perished, I have secluded myself here, detached from worldly affairs for a thousand years. At that ti, the great Zhou Dynasty had not even been established, and this land never belonged to you."
"I am the predecessor, you are the successor... yet you see as a threat," the woman in white said calmly.
"So, you are trying to reason with ?" Su Heng asked.
"I am a person who values reason," the woman in white stared into his eyes, her reply earnest.
"But you should know, in this world, there is only strength and weakness, no right or wrong," Su Heng said, "Otherwise, the once-great, renowned Moon Dynasty would not have fallen thousand years ago, and you would not be in such a plight now."
The woman in white tilted her head, thoughtfully, "You make a good point."
As her voice fell,
A sudden rustle of footsteps echoed around them.
Su Heng looked up, surveying his surroundings, spotting in the bleak, snow-covered forest, figures with vacant eyes bearing corpse spots. Their gazes converged on Su Heng, emitting terrifying auras. Р𝓪ＮՕ𝖇Ês̈
At a glance, all these figures were Heavenly Deceit.
So even from the Earth Immortal Realm, several figures hidden among them.
No wonder the strongest among the ancient three major Esoteric Sects, the White Tower Temple, has fallen to such a state now.
Over these thousand years, those accomplished practitioners of the White Tower Temple had all been secretly controlled and refined, turned into puppets manipulated by this woman.
The woman in white said no more.
Her gaze empty, holding the guqin, flakes of snow falling around her.
A thousand years ago, this forr Moon Dynasty princess was incomparably majestic, a renowned powerhouse of her ti. Over these thousand years, having refined the spiritual power of many Esoteric Sect practitioners, along with these puppets aiding her, her strength was unfathomable and she was indeed a formidable opponent.
Now, neither spoke, falling into silence.
The atmosphere beca tense, ready to explode into a cataclysmic battle at any mont.
Yet Su Heng was not fearful.
Indeed, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, his face bearing a sinister smile.
"Of course, you can choose to strike against ," Su Heng’s gaze briefly swept over those undead puppets before returning to the princess, he continued, "but you should consider what the consequences of fighting would be."
"So, do you offer another choice?"
"I ca to conquer," Su Heng said, "either kneel before or embrace destruction."
"Then I have no choice but to fight!" the woman in white declared coldly.
"Huh," Su Heng laughed, "If it were you in your pri, perhaps you truly might have had the capacity to challenge . But now..."
Su Heng stroked his chin, thoughtfully speaking, "This surely isn’t your true form, is it?"
The woman in white stared at him, then suddenly let out a light sigh, "Indeed, I can’t really hide anything from you."
This voice sounded sowhat weary.
And it didn’t seem to co from the woman herself, but from the lush Bodhi Tree beside her. Enjoy exclusive chapters from
Rustle!
The leaves trembled, soil churned.
Amid a violent scraping noise, the already imnse Bodhi Tree grew even larger before Su Heng’s eyes.
Its green leaves fell in droves, turning to ash mid-air. The original bark cracked and exploded open, masses of crimson flesh burst forth from the crevices, wrapping around the trunk.
In but the span of two or three breaths, this sacred and serene Bodhi Tree,
Transford into a several hundred ters tall bloody, nefarious tree with flesh for bark and bones for branches, its body adorned with loathso hanging corpses.
And as this bloody, nefarious tree appeared before Su Heng, dark clouds rolled in the sky, blocking out the sunlight, and soon a blood-colored lightning streaked across.
And the corpses hanging from its branches...
Weren’t just monks, but also included powerful demons and ancient knights in full armor.
They were all dead, so mummified, so decayed, so relatively well-preserved. Strands of blood-red mist drifted from these bodies, quickly covering a radius of several thousand ters, enveloping Su Heng’s robust figure within it.
