Chapter 1468: Lasting Feud
Chapter 1468: Lasting Feud
In this desolate land, an invisible dragon glided over the mountains, passing through the boundary between the Human realm and the Demon domain. The colourful figure twisted and revealed half a claw before vanishing very soon again.
The moment he entered the Human realm, he felt strangely despondent. That was how it felt to lose protection. The laws of the Human realm did not suppress demonfolk, but perhaps because he, or she, was a chosen child of the Demon domain, leaving the Demon domain meant losing this blessing, so they obviously experienced much more than regular demonfolk when leaving.
“You’re already a demonfolk, right down to every hair. You can’t change that anymore. What do you think the Myriad sect will do to you? Kill you on the spot? Skin you alive? Or send you into rebirth after using you? That’s probably the most benevolent end they can give to you.”
Qian Rongzhi continued to mock him, but Si Long became calm. “You can no longer stop me.”
Leaving the Demon domain had a much greater influence on her than him, as only she was technically blessed by the Demon domain.
Most importantly, he was already prepared to die. He could no longer be threatened by her.
He had come to realise something. If he remained in the Demon domain and continued to fall, he would definitely be the one who was devoured in the end. In this contest of will powers, she was virtually untouchable.
It was like a regular person and a madman being locked up together. If the regular person could not kill the madman, then the regular person would definitely end up mad as well. The madman would not end up normal.
In reality, he could already sense he was on the verge of going mad. His will wandered around the verge of losing control. Even if he faced insurmountable dangers right now, he had to make an attempt, as that kind of outcome was even more miserable than ending up in the afterlife.
She smiled gently. “Don’t blame me when you go crazy.”
“Then we’ll perish together!”
There was a rumble in the distance, which startled him. An earthquake? Rockslide? No, that’s the sound of a violet collision. It sounds more like powerful cultivators practising their techniques. This should be the most thinly-guarded region of Black Cloud city’s frontlines, so why are there cultivators here?
Then he thought, If I can encounter a disciple of the Myriad sect, hopefully a direct disciple, then I can explain everything. That’s better than risking a visit to Black Cloud city.
As a result, he made up his mind and moved off in the direction of the rumbles. Strangely enough, she did not mock him this time, lurking quietly instead.
Making his way over a valley, his eyes narrowed. He saw an extremely familiar white figure on the top of a mountain nearby.
He paused, and her mad laughter rang out in his head. That was simply how fate worked. It was truly laughable
Surging daemon qi appeared from up ahead. It was extremely familiar. He made his way around another mountain in a hurry. A mountainous figure stood among the mountains, holding its huge head of an ox up high, gazing at the starry sky.
“Li Qingshan!”
It could not be wrong! Even if he were reduced to dust, he would never forget this great foe who had forced him into the Demon domain!
When enemies met, it would be particularly fierce.
Kill!
Right when he was about to launch a sneak attack, his figure was exposed. The seven-coloured light twisted, and a colourful dragon appeared between the mountains.
Li Qingshan and Xiao An gazed over together.
You bitch! He cursed again inside. However, this was the Human realm, so the disruption she could cause was limited. As such, he directly approached Li Qingshan and coldly asked, “Li Qingshan, do you still remember me?”
Li Qingshan was startled as well. Such a large dragon had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and he had not discovered it even when it was so close. It definitely did not come in peace. Coupled with the abrupt question, he was even more puzzled. “Who’re you?”
“Seems like… Si Long.” Xiao An tilted her head, and the Skull Prayer Beads rolled out of her hands.
“Si Long!” Li Qingshan realised who he was. “So it’s you!”
It left him even more surprised. The two of them had been separated in different worlds, and they had each left a world, arriving in the Human realm. Given the size of the world, they actually encountered each other again in the wilderness, which sure was unfortunate. Sure enough, the “union with the hated” from buddhism was not without reason.
However, he was no longer the same Li Qingshan as before.Back then, he was only at the peak of the third heavenly tribulation, while now, he had already undergone the fourth heavenly tribulation, preparing for the fifth. He also had Xiao An by his side, so while he was surprised, he was not afraid. His fighting spirit blazed.
“Oh, so you’ve defected to the Demon domain and are planning to launch a sneak attack on Black Cloud city from behind?”
Si Long became filled with even more hatred. He glanced at the collapsed mountain and Xiao An above and asked coldly, “Why are you here?”
Li Qingshan blinked his eyes. A smile stretched across his face as he laughed uncontrollably. His laughter echoed through the mountains as if he had just heard a hilarious joke.
Si Long’s face twisted viciously as a growl rumbled in his throat. If this were the past, he would have rushed over to tear him apart right now. However, after falling into the Demon domain, he learnt to be patient. On top of that, there was a hint of fear in his heart that he refused to admit.
What I need the most right now is news of the Human realm. Why don’t I goad him into talking before getting revenge? That’ll give me some more confidence too.
Li Qingshan laughed away, but he rapidly thought of any counter plans at the same time.
In a single moment, he made up his mind. He had to keep Si Long here. Otherwise, if this bastard made it back to the Myriad sect and snitched on him, then the joke would have gotten out of hand.
Not only did he almost cause the death of a direct disciple of the Myriad sect, but he had even turned him into a scapegoat for the “previous first senior brother” Lin Xuan’s death. If Chao Tianjiao really died in Cold Blood pass, then he would be connected to the first senior sister’s death too.
He had utterly angered the “current first senior brother” Li Liehuo as well, so his days as an inner disciple would basically be over. He could save his plans and just gather his belongings and get out of here! Even Rāhu Xiaoming and Gu Yanying who were cultivating in the Xuanming dwelling would be affected.
Thinking like that, he found this to be extremely troublesome. I have the ability to put up a fight, but killing him is almost impossible. He is a Human Sovereign—no, a Demon Sovereign—after all, and he belongs to the Dragon clan. His physique is tough, and the Demon domain is close. Fortunately, this bastard won’t be entering Black Cloud city any time soon with his demon qi. Whatever, I have to try at least. Let me mock him first!
Li Qingshan stopped laughing and patted his chest. “I am an inner disciple of the Myriad sect, so of course, I have a duty to guard the land. There’s nothing strange about me appearing here.”
Si Long’s breathing halted. He widened his eyes in disbelief. “You’re… an inner disciple… of the Myriad sect?”
Anger immediately surged forth, and Qian Rongzhi’s mocking laughter echoed through his head again, filled with sharp sneers. “Oh my, how interesting. The mighty direct disciple has become a demonfolk, while the wretched daemon has become an inner disciple.”
“What, you don’t believe me?” Li Qingshan shook his head and produced his badge from the Myriad sect. “Look at this! Hah!” He could not help but laugh again. Fate was truly bizarre sometimes.
“Sigh, if you hadn’t betrayed the sect and joined the Demon domain, I’d have to call you senior brother! But you better listen up now. I’ll never let any damned demonfolk approach Black Cloud city. If you’re sensible, piss off back to the Demon domain. Don’t let me see you again. If you’re sick of living, hehe!” He clenched his fist. “I’ll crush you again!”
Something seemed to snap in Si Long’s head. His demonic blood surged as he lunged over with a furious roar!
