Chapter 614B – Just a Dream, Just a Play
Four sword intents shot into the skies and terrifying sword phantoms soared into the heavens. Countless sword lights appeared, forming a thick sword curtain that enveloped the entire Demonic Path troop inside, cutting them off from the outside world.
Within the imperial palace, the frowning Yan Emperor’s complexion suddenly changed. He took a step forward and appeared in the skies outside the sword curtain. “Severing Immortal, Extinguishing Immortal, Slaughtering Immortal, Slaying Immortal…the Immortal Executing Sword Array!”
Four figures appeared, one with each of the sword phantoms. Their terrifying cultivations wildly poured into the sword phantoms and cruel sword cries resounded through the heavens and earth.
The Yan Emperor clenched his teeth. “Those four old dogs have gone crazy!”
Woodchopper Fu, Old Hunchback, Buried Ghost, Speechless…each of them had lived for countless years and should have died long ago. But, they actually exhausted all possible methods to struggle to cling onto life. They were all old monsters that refused to die in peace.
In ordinary times they scurried about in the dark like rats in the shadows. Yet today, they actually dared to do something like this…to activate the Immortal Executing Sword Array to slaughter the Demonic Path’s Holy Monarch!
If it were any other place, the Yan Emperor would clap and cheer for this. But this was Thistle Capital. Great Yan had a deep blood hatred with the Demonic Path. If this sort of matter were to occur here, they wouldn’t be able to wash themselves clean of this crime even if they leapt into a river.
If they could kill the Demon Sovereign, then even if the Yan Emperor would suffer the crazy retaliation of the Demonic Path he would still take this risk.
But, could someone like the Demon Sovereign be so easy to kill?
Even if these four old monsters managed to form the legendary Immortal Executing Sword Array, the Yan Emperor still didn’t believe that they would succeed.
What to do?
The Yan Emperor’s eyes were uncertain. However, what he didn’t know was that several days ago, someone had already made a choice for Great Yan.
Bang –
Thistle Capital’s great array formation began to revolve. A beam of light shot into the skies, forming the phantom of a golden dragon that howled into the sword curtain.
The golden dragon entered the sword curtain like a fish into water. It shuttled through, causing the surface of the sword lights to be tinged with a hint of gold, adding to their terrifying power.
“You scoundrels!”
The Yan Emperor flew into a rage. He turned around and his eyes became golden. They pierced through all barriers, finally settling on a temple deep below the imperial palace.
There, over a dozen royal family members were led by three white-haired old men. These people cut their wrists and allowed their blood to pour into an array plate on the ground.
They used this method to avoid the detection of the Great Yan Emperor and forcefully activate the power of Thistle Capital’s great array…at the same time, they had made the decision for the emperor!
Would the Demonic Path believe that this was only the actions of a minority faction within Great Yan’s royal family? In other words, the Yan Emperor only had one choice he could make now.
The Yan Emperor drew in a deep breath. He stepped forward and raised his hands. The strength of Thistle Capital’s great array formation thoroughly erupted.
The golden dragon within the sword curtain emitted a joyous cry. Its figure began to grow and grow, almost doubling in size.
It was impossible for the Yan Empire to remain a bystander in this. If so, then he might as well take a gamble and try to make the Demon Sovereign stay here forever!
The Demon Sovereign had entered the Immortal Sect and left in less than a day. While no concrete news had emerged yet, looking at the actions of the Demonic Path troops, there should have been some kind of accident.
The Yan Emperor couldn’t help but think that today’s events were likely arranged in secret by the Immortal Sect.
This was indeed a misunderstanding, but whether it was true or not no longer mattered. This was because it was impossible to separate the Immortal Sect’s decisions from what happened outside Thistle Capital.
If it weren’t for this, the Great Yan Empire which had endured humiliation for so many years would never have had the courage to openly and blatantly try to kill the Demon Sovereign…Great Yan’s choice had dragged the entire Immortal Sect down into the water!
When the Buddhist Nation Sovereign and Nether Domain Master obtained this news they were angered to the extreme. But, because they were supreme characters of this world, they made their own decision in the blink of an eye.
This was no different from being stained with mud that wouldn’t wash away. Since the Immortal Sect was doomed to take the blame for this, they might as well take advantage of this opportunity to cut Qin Yu down!
If it weren’t for Shen Yuanyin stopping them, then they might have already taken action. A Demon Sovereign that hated the Immortal Sect to the extreme shouldn’t live in this world.
“Block out all news!”
“Don’t let Nineheaven Mirrormoon Palace learn of this!”
The Buddhist Nation Sovereign and Nether Domain Master each sent out their own orders. Then, they stood up, took a step forward, and vanished from sight.
In the next moment the two of them arrived at Thistle Capital. They raised their hands together and countless rule lines appeared in the world. They formed a great net that wrapped around the world, covering up all auras.
…
Within the sword curtain, the injured Demon Envoy, 5000 True Demon Guards, and 3000 Holy Nether Guards had completely vanished. All that was left was a quiet and lonely, black, purple, and gold imperial carriage.
Qin Yu calmly looked at You Qi. “Listen to me and wait inside. It’s too dangerous for you out there.”
You Qi gripped his hand. “I won’t let you go alone again.”
Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows. “You aren’t afraid.”
You Qi smiled. “I believe in you.”
So what if I die? If I can die together with you, I have no regrets.
Qin Yu could sense her feelings. A bit of warmth suddenly appeared in his ice cold chest. He held onto her hands and said in a soft voice, “Good, then together with me, let’s watch this grand play unfold!”
Immortal Executing Sword Array, four Calamity Immortals, the Yan Emperor, two supremes of the Immortal Sect…the term ‘earth-shaking and heaven-stirring’ would be insufficient to describe this lineup of powerhouses.
But to kill him? It still wasn’t enough!
Beneath Qin Yu’s white hair, his eyes were icy cold, flashing with a strange mania that bordered on madness. His mood was in an unprecedentedly bad state. A volcano burned within his chest, so hot that it would burn him to ashes if he didn’t vent it.
These people had brought themselves to him on their own initiative. Not only did Qin Yu not feel fear, but an impulsive desire for destruction rose within him…this destruction also included himself.
You Qi’s willingness to die with him caused warmth to flow in Qin Yu’s heart. It caused him to regain a glimmer of sanity within his desire for self-destruction.
He grabbed onto You Qi and lightly said, “Don’t worry, nothing will happen to us.” The projection of Spectral Disaster that Undying left behind was enough to reverse any hopeless situation!
…
Immortal Sect.
Nineheaven Mirrormoon Palace.
The chill in the hall passed straight into the bones. Everyone in sight was bound in ice, the temperature so low that all life would perish here.
Lan Ruo stood outside the hall. She nervously looked towards the frozen center of the temple and the beautiful figure standing there. Anxiousness flooded her eyes.
Just what connection did her honorable master have with the Demon Sovereign? Just a single meeting had caused her master to suffer a backlash through her cultivation method.
For someone who had reached large success of the Sublime Lost Emotion Code, this was unimaginable. As a result, the might of the backlash was equally terrifying. Even with her master’s current cultivation, it was still possible for an accident to occur.
Luckily, the worst case scenario didn’t appear. When Lan Ruo’s complexion grew increasingly pale, the terrifying cold in the hall began to slowly disperse.
The ice retreated like a tide. Everything it covered still maintained its original appearance. But, when Lan Ruo stepped into the hall, the two thick wooden doors directly collapsed into dust as the slightest breeze touched them.
Then the sturdy columns, the neatly arranged furniture, the magnificent sculptures and paintings in the temple…everything was thoroughly erased from existence.
Shen Yuanyin opened her eyes, her aura even colder than before. The indifference in her eyes caused Lan Ruo’s heart to skip a beat. Lan Ruo subconsciously came to a halt.
“Master…”
Shen Yuanyin’s eyes moved. The cold chill around her restrained itself. She asked, “Has the Demonic Path left?”
Lan Ruo respectfully replied, “Reporting to honorable master, the Demon Sovereign has left the Immortal Sect’s world.” She bit her lips and said, “Master, you…your condition…”
Shen Yuanyin lightly said, “I’m fine.”
Lan Ruo lowered her head and her eyes reddened. How could she be fine? She also cultivated the Sublime Lost Emotion Code so she was well aware of the true nature behind this inherited technique of Nineheaven Mirrormoon Palace. But, since her master said she was fine, it was because she didn’t want to be asked any further questions.
Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps from outside.
Lan Ruo frowned. She had passed down orders not to be disturbed.
Shen Yuanyin furrowed her eyebrows. “Enter.”
A Mirrormoon Palace maid hurriedly walked in. “This servant greets the Palace Master and Little Palace Master. There is trouble occurring at Great Yan’s Thistle Capital. The Demon Sovereign has been besieged!” As one of the three factions of the Immortal Sect, while news could be blocked from them for a time, it couldn’t last forever.
Shen Yuanyin closed her eyes. When she opened them once again, her clear pupils were like cold ice without any warmth. The Buddhist Nation Sovereign and Nether Domain Master were no longer in the Immortal Sect world!
Without hesitation, Shen Yuanyin stepped forward and vanished from sight.
