Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Swosh!
Xu Que lay on the chair. He had heard the commotion from afar. A red light flashed through the sky. It pierced the sound barrier and, with lightning speed, flew toward him.
What ca near was a familiar silhouette, a familiar aura. It was none other than Jiang Hongyan!
Clunk!
Xu Que jumped out of his chair right away and, with a great leap, stood right before the entrance of the Immortal Hall. Then he fixed his gaze at Jiang Hongyan still far away. Since she’s here, it ant that his guess was right. She must want to enter the Ancient Bronze Hall!
Swoosh!
Very quickly, Jiang Hongyan finally arrived. Upon seeing him, her beautiful face was full of surprise.
“Little one, you...why are you here?”
Xu Que shook his head and laughed, “Tsk tsk tsk, little missy, you’re too naughty! Sneaking out when I’m not around. Luckily, I’m smart enough to guess that you’ll be here!” Xu Que blocked the way to the Immortal Hall with his body solidly as he uttered those words. It was the only entrance into the hall after all.
Jiang Hongyan watched his actions with mild interest, then shook her head. Sadness flashed into her eyes as she said, “Little one, let enter.”
“No way. Tell , what are you planning to do? Why would you need to enter the Immortal Hall again?” Xu Que asked.
Jiang Hongyan fell silent for a mont, then answered, “The Immortal Hall is the single one-way road to the Xuanzhen Continent. I need to go back. Otherwise, in less than two years, not only will I die...even the Four Great Continents will be wiped out!”
Xu Que was taken aback by her words. Does the Immortal Hall lead to the Xuanzhen Continent?
But shortly after, he heaved a sigh of relief, “You don’t need to worry about the Xuanzhen Continent invading us. Everything’s fine. I have opened the seal of the Five Elents Mountain. The shackles of the Four Great Continents, at its current state, is enough to protect the Four Great Continents for several decades.”
“It’s not about the shackles!” Jiang Hongyan shook her head, a self-mocking smile on her face, “I have recovered a portion of my mories. That person had extracted a piece of my soul and instilled it into the God-realization Tree. Counting the years that had passed, the God-realization fruit on that tree could ripen anyti now. If he consud and refined it, he could immortalize right away and achieve the Celestial Stage. When that happens, all of my Kist and Cultivation will beco his. The Four Continents will fall into a disaster should that happen!”
“What?” Xu Que asked in disbelief.
Jiang Hongyan’s father from her previous life was that insane? In the end, that was the reason he made her undergo rebirth and achieve a multitude of Kist? His real motive was not just to control the Xuanzhen Continent, but to strip them all from Jiang Hongyan once he reached the Celestial Stage!
More horrifyingly, he had even extracted a piece of Jiang Hongyan’s soul and nurtured a God-realization tree, all to achieve the Celestial Stage.
He...he was more terrible than a senseless beast!
“Should he achieve the Celestial Stage, the first move he would make would be to find in the Four Great Continents and take back that Celestial Artifact that allowed to be reborn. By then, the shackles of the Four Great Continents would not be enough to stop him. That’s why I must return to the Xuanzhen Continent. Even if I could not destroy the God-realization Tree, at least I would not implicate the Four Great Continents!” Jiang Hongyan spoke again, her beautiful eyes boring straight into Xu Que. “That’s why...little one, let pass, won’t you?”
“So that’s why!” Xu Que laughed bitterly. “That’s what you ant when you told not to wait for you!”
Caught by surprise, Jiang Hongyan quickly recovered a slight smile.
“Then don’t go. Give two, no, one year. I will destroy the God-realization Tree with my own two hands for you and then bring your soul back!” Xu Que said seriously.
In a year, he is confident that he could at least achieve the Form Synthesis Stage. By then, with the King of Tough-Acting Fist and Buddha Seal, he would have enough power to fight against a powerhouse at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage!
“It’ll be too late. The God-realization fruit will ripen within six months. No one can stop him then.” Jiang Hongyan disagreed. She slowly stepped toward Xu Que.
Xu Que knew, that with Jiang Hongyan’s character, stopping her was no use. She might even fight him to barge into the Immortal Hall.
“Forget it!” Suddenly, Xu Que sighed, his face crestfallen, and he moved aside voluntarily. He said, with a small voice, “Leave if you want! I don’t want to stop you. If you can bear to leave , then leave!”
Jiang Hongyan was surprised. She didn’t think that he would give in this easily, but she still smiled. “If given a chance, I will definitely return.” With that said, her silhouette shook as she determinedly swept toward the entrance of the Immortal Hall. Quickly she pulled out a jade disk, which shone brightly. She then slapped it onto the bronze door.
Boom!
The whole of the Immortal Hall shook and creaked loudly. Then, the door started to tremble, and it waved like a curtain of water.
Swoosh!
Almost at the sa mont, a black-clad shadow with platinum hair flew past. It was the Taoist body that Xu Que had long prepared beforehand. With a black rod in his hand, he plunged toward Jiang Hongyan’s back. But then, this ti, as if reading his move, Jiang Hongyan reacted and gracefully stepped aside.
Clunk!
The black rod hit the bronze walls instead. The collision emitted a trembling echo throughout the hall.
Damn it!
Xu Que stared, eyes wide, as his Taoist body failed in his sneak attack. Right then, awkwardly, he also felt Jiang Hongyan’s gaze fall upon him.
“Little guy, I still rember that move!” She smiled gently, but in the end did not lecture him. Because she understood Xu Que’s intentions. He could not bear for her to leave like that.
Sigh!
Xu Que sighed, as though he had finally run out of options. He lifted his head and asked, “I failed, but I want to ask you one last ti. Must you go?”
Jiang Hongyan fell silent, and finally nodded solemnly, “Yes”
“Looks like I shouldn’t have co!” Xu Que lifted his head and asked Jiang Hongyan, “Could we leave with so mories at least?”
“Okay.” Jiang Hongyan agreed without hesitation.
“Before you go, kiss !” Xu Que teased.
Jiang Hongyan paused for a while, her eyes fixed on Xu Que. Then she smiled, “Okay.”
“Thank you!” Xu Que nodded, then walked toward Jiang Hongyan. He slowly lifted his hand, a little smile on his face; his eyes filled with emotions that yelled that no, he could not bear to let her go. He caressed her exquisite face that was otherworldly beautiful, the feeling of her skin on his fingers silky and supple.
“Promise . You must co back, okay?” Xu Que asked softly. He had honestly given up on stopping her.
“Yes!” Jiang Hongyan nodded, with a flicker of struggle in her eyes.
Xu Que slowly inched his face toward her, and soon their nose bridges touched. The distance between their lips was but a few milliters. Jiang Hongyan subconsciously closed her eyes, the corners of her eyes moist. But at that very mont, Xu Que suddenly held out his arms and pulled Jiang Hongyan into a tight embrace. He roared, “The Ultimate Skill of Exploding Heavens Faction: Embracing a Cute Girl!”
Boom!
Under his steps ca a bolt of lightning; with overwhelming strength, he scooped Jiang Hongyan to his chest and crashed the bronze door now unlocked. A trendous pull ca flying out of the gates toward them!
In the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared into the bronze doors.
The huge Immortal Hall also disappeared shortly after.
