1211: Chapter 1211: Change or Destroy 1211: Chapter 1211: Change or Destroy The Sky-splitting Sword’s strike landed directly on Abe no Seii, whose Protective Magic Artifact shaped like a rhombus crystalline structure instantly unfolded, but Ye Qingci, having anticipated this, did not hesitate in the slightest.
The Sword Qi and Sword Intent surged further, and after the sword light completely enshrouded Abe no Seii’s body, the crystal finally began to show countless cracks!
Bang!
The crystal shattered, and the longsword pierced through the body.
This strike genuinely penetrated through Abe no Seii’s body, and only then did the sword light slowly start to dim down.
Ye Qingci looked at the corpse of Abe no Seii behind her without speaking, knelt on one knee, and remained subdued for quite so ti without regaining her composure.
It was not until Su Chengyu sensed the commotion had ceased and rushed over that Ye Qingci struggled to her feet and said to him as she handed back the Dragon Slayer Sword, “Take with you.”
Su Chengyu was startled, and then he realized to what extent Ye Qingci was weakened.
Without any hesitation, Su Chengyu advanced and helped Ye Qingci up from the ground, then imdiately used Sword Control to fly out of the Dongying border.
Along the way, Ye Qingci rested and regulated her breathing with ease, while Su Chengyu did not dare disturb her, his mind still unsettled by the earth-shattering battle he had just witnessed.
Was this what a battle between Earth Immortals was like?
Every mont was a battle for the right opportunity.
Su Chengyu had thought of stepping in to help, but he could not even catch a glimpse of the two combatants’ movents.
As a close witness to the entire battle, Su Chengyu felt no different than those who watched from thousands of miles away.
“An Earth Immortal has fallen just like that?”
Recalling everything that had just occurred, Su Chengyu could not help but remark with a sigh.
However, upon hearing Su Chengyu’s words, Ye Qingci, with her eyes still closed, spoke coldly, “It’s not that easy.
Don’t forget, although I couldn’t escape, he could leave at any ti.”
Su Chengyu paused, recalling the last scene he had witnessed, “That body was fake?”
“Real, but after becoming an Earth Immortal, reshaping the body is no longer so complicated.
Not to ntion that this guy has the resources of the entire Dongying at his disposal; probably, he will be bouncing back to full strength soon enough.
That’s also why Abe no Seii was so confident.”
Su Chengyu swallowed hard, rembering the magnitude of Ye Qingci’s final sword attack, “Such an attack can’t kill an Earth Immortal?”
“If Earth Immortals died so easily, then why would the people of the world so desperately pursue this realm?”
Ye Qingci spoke again and finally opened her eyes, then a surge of Mana flowed into Su Chengyu, and their speed of Sword Control increased several tis over.
“Let’s leave quickly; any later and who knows what else might happen.”
It was naturally impossible for Abe no Seii to catch up imdiately, but Ye Qingci did not discount the possibility that other Demon Gods were tracking her scent.
Although she had set up barriers to conceal their presence from the beginning of the encounter, she could not guarantee that the Demon Clan hadn’t locked onto them from the outset.
Only after the two had left Dongying Country’s border, with no incidents, did Ye Qingci finally breathe a sigh of relief.
“We’re safe now.”
With Ye Qingci’s assurance, Su Chengyu finally felt completely at ease.
Before coming to Dongying, the ocean had felt fraught with peril to Su Chengyu.
And now, on these sa seas, Su Chengyu felt a sense of security.
Ye Qingci took a deep breath, summoned the Sky-splitting Sword, and now partially recovered, she was ready to go on her own, without bringing Su Chengyu along.
Su Chengyu, upon seeing this, instinctively asked, “Are you leaving so soon?”
Ye Qingci glanced at Su Chengyu, “We’ve gotten a bit too close for comfort in Dongying.
Although there aren’t many spies from Xia Country there, it doesn’t prevent so information from reaching Xia Country.”
Su Chengyu imdiately understood, blinking he said, “There won’t be any trouble, right?”
Ye Qingci shook her head, “You’re on the Dragon Soul Departnt’s wanted list, not mine in the Demon Slayer Departnt.
Helping the Dragon Soul Departnt catch people is out of goodwill, and you still have an amnesty, so not laying a hand on you is not out of the question.
Besides…” she paused, “you killed the Ping Shan Demon Monarch.”
Su Chengyu was taken aback as he looked at Ye Qingci, “You’re really going to credit with that achievent?”
“Of course, since it was you who did it, what makes you think you’re undeserving?”
Su Chengyu understood Ye Qingci’s aning, but he still couldn’t help but say, “It’s not that, I just feel…
”
“Do you dislike the current Demon Slayer Departnt that much?”
With one remark, Ye Qingci pierced through the words Su Chengyu was reluctant to say outright.
Su Chengyu’s expression blanked for a mont, but eventually, he nodded.
However, Ye Qingci didn’t seem to care as the corners of her mouth lifted, “To be honest, I don’t like it either, but do you know why I still stay in the Demon Slayer Departnt?”
“Isn’t it your father’s arrangent?”
“No, I requested to join on my own initiative.”
Su Chengyu asked in confusion, “Why is that?”
“The Dragon Soul Departnt at its worst is just corrupt, but my eldest brother is already making reforms, I believe that the Dragon Soul Departnt will gradually recover.
However, the Demon Slayer Departnt has long since beco unrecognizable.”
Su Chengyu was noncommittal; indeed, the contemporary Demon Slayer Departnt’s ostracization of the Demon Clan was more than just eliminating demons and eradicating evil.
In the eyes of the Demon Slayer Departnt, demons seed to be synonyms for evil itself.
“Aunt Ye wants to change the Demon Slayer Departnt?”
Su Chengyu blinked and asked.
Ye Qingci nodded, “Yes, either change it or…
”
She left off mid-sentence, but Su Chengyu already understood Ye Qingci’s aning.
If it couldn’t be changed, then it would have to be destroyed!
That was precisely why Ye Qingci had joined the Demon Slayer Departnt herself.
Su Chengyu took a deep breath, looked at Ye Qingci, and said, “I understand.
Can I join the Demon Slayer Departnt?”
Ye Qingci looked at Su Chengyu, whose lips curved upward.
She had deliberately brought up these matters for this very reason, and now that Su Chengyu had brought it up on his own, everything else would be much easier to discuss.
“I will pave the way for you.
Having the rit of slaying the Ping Shan Demon Monarch, it won’t be difficult for you to enter the Demon Slayer Departnt.
However, before that, you need to first take care of the ss with the Long family.”
Su Chengyu blinked, hesitantly he said, “It’s not just the Long family, right?”
Ye Qingci scoffed coldly, “You’re aware it’s not just the Long family?
Knowing full well the complications of becoming entangled with the princess, why did you still get involved with Lin An at that ti?”
Su Chengyu scratched his head helplessly, “At that ti, I didn’t know Lin An was a princess, ah.
Later on, when emotions ran deep, I couldn’t control myself…”
Ye Qingci rolled her eyes, not willing to quibble over this, “It’s a bad thing but also a good thing.
Without the relationship with Lin An, you wouldn’t have gotten two months of amnesty.
But now you can’t drag it out any longer.
Upon returning to the Capital City, you’ll face not only the open hostility of the Long family but also need to be constantly aware of movents from the Zhao Family.
Rember, the most important thing is…
”
“Not to reveal your identity.”
