Chapter 281: The Might Of The Sword!
“Granny has reached the end. Even an elixir cannot save a desperate situation. From the day you entered the Ancient Spirit Village, granny could already sense that you were unlike an ordinary person. As expected, granny has not chosen wrongly!”
Shangguan Cheng Ya looked at Su Yi and Shangguan Xi Wei at his side with a smile as she said to Su Yi: “Child, promise granny. In the future, you must take good care of the people of the Ancient Spirit Village and protect the bloodline of the Divine Demonic Sect.”
She paused as fresh blood spilled out. With great difficulty, Shangguan Cheng Ya took Shangguan Xi Wei’s hand and placed it onto Su Yi’s hand holding the elixir, forcefully pressing them together. Struggling to continue, she said: “If you both manage to leave today, you must take care of one another as sister and brother in the future, or else I…”
“Grandma, stop talking. Don’t say anymore. Quickly take the elixir…” Shangguan Xi Wei cried while trying to wipe the fresh blood from her grandmother’s lips.
“Granny Shangguan, quickly take the elixir. I promise you. Just please take the elixir.” Su Yi kept nodding his head while tears streamed down his cheeks.
“Good child. Now, I can be at peace.”
Shangguan Cheng Ya smiled. Her shrinking pupils could no longer stay focused and lost their last glimmer as they grew dim and shut tightly.
“Grandma!”
“Granny Shangguan!”
Su Yi and Shangguan Xi Wei roared sorrowfully with heart-wrenching pain as they shook the elderly woman in their arms, but she would never wake again.
“Crack…”
A curved saber, swift as lightning, turned into an arc and struck toward Su Yi.
The elderly man with the curved saber attacked again, sensing something notably strange about the young man while his instincts gave him an uneasy feeling. He knew he must eliminate this source of trouble.
“Be careful!”
A loud shout rang out along with a tiger’s roar. An elder of the Hunting Tiger Tribe appeared with a weapon resembling both scissors and fork, accompanied by a tiger’s shadow, blocking Su Yi’s path.
“Crack…”
Though this elder’s might was extraordinary, he was no match for the elderly man with the curved saber and was abruptly blown away, his weapon growing dim with cracks before falling.
The elderly man with the curved saber staggered and retreated two steps.
Su Yi stood and handed Shangguan Cheng Ya to Shangguan Xi Wei.
“Ah!”
Su Yi looked to the sky and released a deafening roar while the scorching, mighty aura around his body churned and grew denser with power and destruction.
Such an aura caused even the surrounding strong beasts to tremble involuntarily. A series of blood moon-like fearsome gazes turned toward him, mixed with astonishment.
From within Su Yi’s body, a crimson glow like naked flames materialized while his eyes became covered in crimson. The scorching aura caused the surrounding air to distort and shimmer.
“What a strange brat. His body contains an outer power that doesn’t belong to him. It must have a connection to the Divine Demonic Sect…”
Feeling the frightening aura released from within Su Yi’s body, the elderly man with the curved saber and the middle-aged man with the spear were shocked, their blazing gazes flashing briefly.
At a distance, other obscure auras descended, having noticed this aura that differed from the rest.
“No matter who you are, I will never let you escape!”
Su Yi’s crimson gaze fixed coldly on the middle-aged man with the spear. Whether due to forming his Heavenly Yuan Demonic Soul or the influence of the outer power from within the mysterious space, his entire being radiated a destructive drive.
This aura was mighty and robust. Too strong, too Yang, too firm, and too vigorous, it formed into a uniquely powerful presence!
Su Yi’s hair was disheveled, his robe tattered by the outer power emanating from his body, yet his momentum only grew stronger. Veins pulsed visibly on his face, giving him a ferocious appearance.
“What a unique brat. Since he is a remaining evil, he cannot be allowed to live!”
The middle-aged man with the spear spoke, his gaze secretly burning as if he wanted to capture Su Yi. Rather than using the long spear in his hand, his left hand shook, and from a low altitude, he dove down with his fingers slightly crooked, as though distorting the sky with a claw aimed at Su Yi’s head.
“I want your life as payment!”
Facing the descending claw, Su Yi advanced instead of retreating. His crimson eyes burned like intense flames while radiance stormed around him. The scorching aura that blotted out the sky exploded as he swung his arms, and Overlord’s Fist detonated outward, mixing with wind and thunder-like sounds as it clashed with the incoming claw.
“Boom!”
The fist and claw collided. The explosion sounded like shocking thunder while the surrounding air roared with frightening wind energy sweeping outward.
“Pat pat!”
Su Yi staggered back repeatedly while the ground beneath his feet cracked.
However, the middle-aged man with the spear gained no advantage, his body also staggering backward.
“What powerful outer force!”
The middle-aged man was shocked, but his gaze grew even more intense as he sensed that the momentum and aura surrounding the youth likely belonged to the Divine Demonic Sect’s remains.
“Swish!”
A saber’s glow cut through the air as the elderly man with the curved saber suddenly appeared before Shangguan Xi Wei, his weapon striking downward.
“Be careful!”
Shangguan Chen Feng appeared, blocking Shangguan Xi Wei as sword light exploded from his hand.
However, it proved too weak. The sword light was simply no match for the curved saber, which pierced his chest as fresh blood instantly stained his white robe red.
“Brother Chen Feng…”
Shangguan Xi Wei cried out in anguish.
Su Yi glanced sideways and saw the scene, his body trembling!
“Take care of the Ancient Spirit Village,” Shangguan Chen Feng said to Su Yi as fresh blood spewed from his mouth.
“A mantis raising its forelegs to stop an oncoming carriage. You overestimated your ability.”
The elderly man with the curved saber showed no mercy, his gaze ice-cold as he withdrew his saber.
Shangguan Chen Feng’s body exploded into a bloody mist.
“Ah!”
Su Yi roared in grief and rage while drawing the broken sword from his back. Whether from the ferocious outer power or Su Yi’s heart-wrenching agony affecting it, the broken sword’s glow brightened brilliantly as monstrous sword aura gushed forth.
Instantly, surging energy flooded from the broken sword into Su Yi’s body, complementing and mixing with his inner outer power, further increasing his strength.
However, a gruesome killing intent also accompanied that surging energy, assaulting Su Yi’s body, making him envision scenes of blood-filled rivers and mountains of bones.
This killing intent was terrifying, seeming to desire the destruction of everything, causing Su Yi’s physical form to tremble as though it might be crushed to powder under its overwhelming force.
The power within the mysterious space counteracted the killing intent’s influence on Su Yi’s body.
Yet within Su Yi’s crimson eyes, the bloody glow of killing intent intensified, consuming everything.
“Hong hong!”
The broken sword now gleamed brilliantly with the clamor of wind and thunder.
That terrifying aura seemed like an awakening monstrous beast.
“Crack…”
The sword aura grew monstrous with blinding light.
“Kill!”
The crimson glow in his eyes blazed with stern bloody light. Su Yi gripped the broken sword tightly and slashed directly at the elderly man with the curved saber.
Wherever the sword light passed, the air churned with killing intent that made hearts palpitate!
The elderly man with the curved saber seemed to sense something as his gaze fluctuated while the glow surrounding him instantly intensified.
