LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 103
Chapter 103
“Hu… not a bad sword!”
Su Changsheng exhaled lightly, slowly sheathing the sword. His fingers gently caressed the blade, as if treating a beloved person. The longsword hummed softly, as if in response.
“Here, it’s yours again!”
He then handed the longsword back to Lu Qingchan, who was completely stunned.
“Su… Su Changsheng…”
Lu Qingchan stared blankly at Su Changsheng, her mind unable to process what had just happened. Her expression was one of shock, her heart deeply immersed in the profundity of that sword strike.
That sword seemed to have opened a supreme gateway to the path of the sword for her.
It filled her with endless insights, causing her to be deeply moved, even to the point of tears—
To hear the Dao in the morning, one could die content in the evening.
“Everything is resolved, so you don’t need to die out of love anymore. By the way, I remember you calling me by my name directly. I’ll make sure to punish you properly when we get back!”
Su Changsheng raised his hand and ruffled her hair, smiling as he spoke.
Resolved?
No, that’s not right!
What punishment! This Su Changsheng, he actually wanted to do that kind of thing to her again.
Lu Qingchan was initially a bit dazed, but she quickly snapped out of it, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed.
However, for some reason, this time there was no sense of humiliation or anger, only a slight shyness and sweetness.
At the same time, she was also curious, looking towards the Quasi-Emperor’s phantom. Was it really resolved?
“This sword, very impressive!”
In the distance, the grand Quasi-Emperor’s phantom stood there in a daze. After a moment, he turned his gaze towards Su Changsheng and sighed softly.
Boom!
In the next instant, he exploded, the entire phantom collapsing.
This wisp of Quasi-Emperor’s divine thought had been completely annihilated by the sword strike.
“……”
The young man with dragon horns also had lifeless eyes, his lips trembling, his gaze filled with endless fear.
Immediately after, his body, primordial spirit, and everything he possessed began to disintegrate.
In the end, he was completely reduced to nothingness.
That recent sword strike not only annihilated the Quasi-Emperor’s phantom but also eradicated him entirely.
The reason he could maintain his form for a brief moment was because that sword strike was too terrifying, directly covering all timelines and erasing his entire existence.
From now on, this world would no longer have this being, only a few sparse souls would remember him.
“This… Buddha above…”
In the distance, within a small world, the Qingyin Heavenly Maiden was dumbfounded. She could no longer maintain her previously calm demeanor, her fingers trembling in utter shock.
What had she witnessed?
A Great Saint had actually slain a Quasi-Emperor’s divine thought with a single sword strike!
Even if it was just a wisp of divine thought, it was still an event that could shake the entire heavenly realm.
With this single sword strike alone, Su Changsheng could be ranked first on the Great Saint list, hailed as the strongest below the Quasi-Emperor level.
“This is too unbelievable!”
The Qingyin Heavenly Maiden whispered. In her life, she had seen countless prodigies and monstrous talents, many young supremes, and even some emperor’s heirs. She herself was a young supreme.
But someone as monstrous as Su Changsheng, she had never encountered before.
Young supreme? Emperor’s heir?
None of these terms could adequately describe him.
This was a great being, destined to become an immortal, surpassing many great emperors throughout the ages.
“I… Qingyin, wishes to follow Lord Changsheng. I earnestly beg Lord Changsheng to take me in!”
The Qingyin Heavenly Maiden’s expression was dazed, but soon, her gaze became resolute. She stood up from the lotus platform, her bare feet stepping onto it, and slowly knelt down.
Her three thousand strands of black hair cascaded down.
With her head touching the lotus platform, her tone was filled with utmost respect, as if worshipping a majestic being.
She was full of fervor.
“……”
Seeing this, Su Changsheng was stunned.
He had been planning to rescue the Qingyin Heavenly Maiden and then either persuade her or forcibly take her under his wing.
After all, she was also a young supreme, possessing a sacred body known as the Jade Pure Glazed Sacred Body, making her an excellent candidate for a wife or concubine.
Moreover, the Qingyin Heavenly Maiden was a celestial maiden of the Buddhist sect, a charming nun, a female bodhisattva.
He had been curious to see what it would be like.
But unexpectedly, before he could even speak, the Qingyin Heavenly Maiden had already taken the initiative to request to follow him.
Seeing that familiar posture of prostration.
Su Changsheng fell silent.
Speaking of which, a follower should also be able to serve in bed, right?
“Ahem, I permit it!”
Su Changsheng cleared his throat lightly and raised his hand, shattering the numerous great formations that had trapped the Qingyin Heavenly Maiden, rescuing her.
Freed from her predicament, the Qingyin Heavenly Maiden stepped barefoot into the air, her entire being radiating a holy light, surrounded by Buddhist chants and celestial flowers, resembling a bodhisattva.
She exuded a sacred charm.
“Qingyin greets Lord Changsheng!”
The Qingyin Heavenly Maiden approached Su Changsheng, bowing slightly. Her expression was respectful, her voice serene and holy, making one want to immerse themselves in it.
But Su Changsheng sensed a different undertone within it.
For instance, like Guanyin…
“……”
Seeing this, Lu Qingchan felt a sense of crisis rising in her heart.
The Qingyin Heavenly Maiden before her was not inferior to her in any aspect, and she was a bodhisattva. Her proactive approach made Lu Qingchan extremely nervous.
She understood Su Changsheng’s greed well; he would certainly not let go of the Qingyin Heavenly Maiden.
No, I was here first!
“Let’s go!”
Glancing at the shattered land and the chaotic sky, Su Changsheng waved his hand, taking both women with him as they departed.
During the previous battle, the White Bone Demon Palace had long been destroyed. However, Su Changsheng had taken the opportunity to collect the divine treasures and other valuables within.
Among them, Su Changsheng discovered a mysterious artifact, exuding a faint yet discernible emperor-level aura that only a strong individual like him could sense.
The artifact was pitch black and resembled a can lid.
Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar?
Su Changsheng felt a strange sensation in his heart, unable to help but speculate. However, he quickly dismissed the thought.
In this fantastical world, there was no such thing as the Ruthless Emperor.
At least, not as far as he knew.
……
The Crimson Blood Imperial Court.
This was another dominant force in the Eternal Heavenly Realm, a terrifying power at the emperor level.
In the imperial capital, within the Divine Martial King’s Mansion.
“My son!”
A sorrowful voice echoed, and an incredibly beautiful woman revealed intense killing intent. A majestic heavenly dragon phantom appeared on her body, exuding the terrifying aura of a Quasi-Emperor.
This beautiful woman was, unmistakably, a Quasi-Emperor.
“Who killed my child!”
The beautiful woman was boiling with killing intent, tears in her eyes, filled with immense pain.
That was her only child, whom she doted on immensely, and now he was dead.
“Shenwu, you old fool, give me an explanation, or I’ll tear down your Divine Martial King’s Residence!”
The beautiful woman roared, her voice shaking the mansion, causing countless hidden dimensions and small worlds within the mansion to tremble. Numerous powerful figures in the mansion were terrified, trembling with fear.
This mistress was no ordinary ruthless person; not only was she a Quasi-Emperor sovereign, but she was also the princess of the Heavenly Dragon Clan. Her status and position were no less than that of the Divine Martial King.
“I do not know either!”
From the void, a majestic figure emerged, his entire being shrouded in terrifying divine light. An aura countless times more terrifying than a Quasi-Emperor’s phantom permeated the air.
He was the Divine Martial King.
“You don’t know? Cang’er was under the protection of a wisp of your divine thought, and you don’t know what happened?”
Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman was furious. Even though her strength was not equal to his, at this moment, her murderous intent was fully revealed, as if she was ready to turn hostile.
“I truly do not know. All heavenly secrets are impossible to deduce. I attempted to divine the situation, but I sensed a great danger. If I had forced the divination, I might have died!”
The Divine Martial King spoke in a low tone, unable to hide the shock in his heart.
Who could it be that even he, a peak Quasi-Emperor supreme, could not deduce?
Could it be an Emperor? Only an Emperor was beyond measure!
