Chapter 2547: Outside Ghostwood Manor

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There was a beautiful road in the sacred land of Terra Demon. It was said that it was carved out by a god. Along the stone steps up the mountain, the cliffs were covered with purple-red flowers, and human-shaped butterflies were dancing on them.

Pan Ruo and Zhang Ruochen walked side by side. The mountains were silent.

Pan Ruo said, “During the seven days you were recovering, Fane of Destiny and Yanluo Clan led the city’s hundred clans to purge the Celestial Court cultivators. Countless people died. The corpses were nailed to the city wall. Some Supreme Saints are still alive and struggling on the wall.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “Fane of Origin going out of secularity is a shocking event. Fane of Destiny and Yanluo Clan naturally don’t want Celestial Court to get involved.”

“Where’s Fairy of a Hundred Flowers?” Pan Ruo asked.

Zhang Ruochen stopped at the precipitous cliff and looked at the clouds in the mountains. He asked calmly, “What do you mean?”

Pan Ruo said, “Not long ago, there was news that Fairy of a Hundred Flowers did not hide or run away. Instead, she took the initiative to attack the warriors of Infernal Court stationed in Oort Cloud Asteroid Belt.

“She killed four Paramount Realm Supreme Saints in a row by herself and successfully escaped.”

Zhang Ruochen was silent for a moment and said lightly, “There are so many masters gathered in Oort Cloud Asteroid Belt. Even Xing Luo and Yuan Qianmo are guarding it. How could she escape?”

“It is said that she was seriously injured when she retreated and did not break into the wormhole,” Pan Ruo said.

Zhang Ruochen said, “She is quite capable!”

“In fact, her appearance has cleared your suspicion,” Pan Ruo said.

“Oh?”

“Many cultivators suspect that she hid on you and escaped from Oort Cloud Asteroid Belt to Royal City of Hundred Clans. Now, such suspicions naturally cease to exist.”

Zhang Ruochen did not say a word. He stepped on the stone steps and continued to walk up.

Not long after, he arrived at the top of the sacred mountain.

Zhang Ruochen stood in bright sunlight and looked at the distant city and the beautiful scenery nearby. His mind gradually opened up. He thought to himself, what kind of mentality did the god of the past have when he was standing here?

Swoosh!

Ancient Abyssal Blade flew out naturally and floated in front of Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen grabbed the sword hilt when the sword soul rushed out of his body after he thought about it. Around his real body, he performed one exquisite sword technique after another.

The most basic Tianxin Sword Technique, Sword of Time, the sword technique from Wordless Sword Manual, his self-created sword technique, and Swordsmanship that he had comprehended from the five volumes of Azure Brush.

Pan Ruo stood in the distance and looked at Zhang Ruochen’s real body, which was motionless, as well as the elegant sword soul dance. She could not help but show a complicated emotion in her eyes. There was sadness, touch, appreciation, disappointment…

All the doubts in her heart disappeared.

How could someone possess him?

How she longed that Zhang Ruochen was performing this sword dance for her.

However, she knew that Zhang Ruochen was only comprehending the sword. He had been immersed in his own world. Even when she was conversing with him, he had probably been comprehending the Swordsmanship in his heart.

She had never had the feeling of giving up the persistence in her heart so strong like this. Scioness, Pan Ruo, her future? How could it be better than a moment of beauty?

So what if the scene in Destiny Pool happened? At least it wasn’t so painful now. They couldn’t say a word even when standing in front of each other.

Death didn’t seem so terrible.

The future might not be death.

Just as she thought of this, the scene she saw when Chi Yao brought her to Destiny Pool when she had just become Realm Bearer appeared in her mind again.

Zhang Ruochen was the same even in the boundless universe. He looked into the dark void space holding Ancient Abyssal Blade. An enormous palm flew out of the darkness. Instantly, many macroworlds were destroyed. Stars burned like sand, and billions of lives were reduced to ashes.

Zhang Ruochen struck out with his sword but only managed to block the hand for a moment. Ancient Abyssal Blade exploded and turned into pieces. He also turned into dust.

Some memories could not be cut off or forgotten.

She had told Zhang Ruochen that she had cut off her past memories. But in fact, it was all a lie. If she wanted to cut off her memories, she would have to forget everything in her previous life. If so, how could she still remember him?

She could not bear to break off those memories.

Pan Ruo covered her heart slightly, and her body trembled slightly. She closed her eyes, “No, I can’t regret my decision once I’ve taken this path. All living things in this world can die, but he has to live. He has to live well.”

Zhang Ruochen’s sword dance ended. His sword soul flew back into his body. He sighed, “It’s not that easy to practice Heaven Sword Soul. I still have to accumulate more.”

He had sensed something just now and tried to break through Heaven Sword Soul.

Unfortunately, he failed.

He looked back and found that Pan Ruo had left long ago. He was the only one left on the top of the mountain.

After a while, all the cultivators of Terra Demon saw lightning and thunder on the top of the mountain. There was also a hurricane, and the sky was dark.

Ancient Abyssal Blade had passed the fourth King’s Calamity and become a Class Four Regal Artifact.

Zhang Ruochen returned to the yard and met Xuan Zehai, Yan Huangtu, and the others. Then he locked himself in his room alone.

He took out Sevenstar Imperial Palace in his room and left Terra Demon’s sacred land with a dimensional teleportation array.

It was hard to enter Terra Demon’s sacred land through a dimensional teleportation array, but it was easy to get out.

Zhang Ruochen changed his appearance and went to the secret stronghold of Qianrui Realm according to the address given by Sikong the Elder.

At this moment, Zhang Ruochen was tall and straight. He had silver hair, a pair of dragon horns on his head, and a mask on his face. His entire body exuded a rotten and dark aura of death.

When other cultivators saw him, they would only think that he was a Corpusian cultivator.

However, his appearance was the same as when he had entered Yin Yang Hall with Ji Fanxin to rescue her senior sister in the Celestial Domain of Truth.

“Ghostwood Manor.”

Zhang Ruochen looked up at the signboard above. There were three ghosty words written on them.

This was a huge manor. Behind the cyan-gray walls, there was black Ghostly Qi. Even if Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual power had reached the 68th level, he couldn’t sense it.

“I wonder if Divine Domain of Destiny, Yanluo Clan, and Royal City of Hundred Clans have found this place.”

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t worried about his own safety. He was worried that he had harmed Ji Fanxin by letting her come to Royal City of Hundred Clans.

He stopped thinking. He was about to knock on the door when he heard a rumbling sound from the street on his right.

The sound of saint beasts running and the sound of metal armor colliding were intertwined.

Soon, a group of guards made up of hundreds of Saint-level cultivators appeared in front of Zhang Ruochen.

The saint-level guards lined up and surrounded Ghostwood Manor.

Two giant snow-white beasts walked out of the guards. They were two Supreme Saint-level beasts.

On the back of the giant beasts sat two Supreme Saints in armor. They were Princess Xue Lai of the Sengens and Han Ailian of the Yakshas.

Han Ailian’s eyes fell on Zhang Ruochen. Seeing that he was standing outside Ghostwood Manor and trying to enter. She ordered, “Take him down.”

A team of Saint-level warriors rushed out and surrounded Zhang Ruochen.

It was obvious that the secret stronghold of Qianrui Realm had been exposed. That was why Royal City of Hundred Clans’ joint law enforcement team surrounded this place.

The cultivators in front of him were not to be feared.

However, the city had three gods and influential figures like the Clan Emperors. Once Ji Fanxin was captured, it would be difficult to save her.

Zhang Ruochen thought quickly and had a countermeasure.

Crash.

The two saints of the enforcement team had sharp eyes. They took out their chains and walked toward Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen sighed in his heart. Then, he stepped on the ground. Powerful Death Qi surged out, sending the two saints of the enforcement team flying. They fell heavily to the ground.

“You cultivators of Royal City of Hundred Clans are so impressive. Do you really think you can capture anyone as you like? Aren’t you afraid of offending people you can’t afford to offend?” Zhang Ruochen sneered.

“How dare you obstruct the enforcement team? You’re guilty of death.”

All the Saint-level cultivators of the enforcement team summoned their weapons. Their killing intent surged.

Han Ailian’s gaze fell on the two saints who had been sent flying and found that they weren’t injured at all. He quickly said, “Wait, put away your weapons.”

He and Princess Xue Li jumped down from the beast and walked to Zhang Ruochen.

Han Ailian introduced himself first. “I’m Han Ailian of the Yakshas, my master is Jadea. May I know your name? Are you a Corpusian?”

Zhang Ruochen pretended to be profound. “Tell me first. Why are you arresting me? Have I done anything wrong? Or have I disturbed the order of Royal City of Hundred Clans?”

Princess Xue Lai had used her spiritual power to investigate him but discovered that she couldn’t see through him. She couldn’t help but be shocked. She didn’t dare to be too presumptuous.

She carefully said, “You may not know this, but we have discovered that the master behind this Ghostwood Manor is likely to be a cultivator of Celestial Court. Therefore, we have been ordered to come and surround the cultivator. You stood outside the door and looked like you wanted to go in. Naturally, we suspected you.”

Han Ailian nodded and said, “That’s right! If you can prove your innocence or tell us your name and background, we will immediately apologize to you.”

They had no choice. The other party’s cultivation was unfathomable, so they had to be cautious.

“Okay, I understand.”

Zhang Ruochen’s hand reached into his sleeve, trying to take something out.

There was another universe in his sleeve.

Zhang Ruochen took out an iron token and handed it to Han Ailian.

Han Ailian took the iron token and looked at it. His face suddenly changed. He immediately cupped his hands and bowed. “So you are the emissary of Fane of Destiny. Greetings, Emissary.”

“Greetings, Emissary!”

All the Saint-level Sergeants, including Princess Xue Lai, quickly bowed.

They were all cultivators from small clans. They couldn’t afford to offend Fane of Destiny.

The iron token had the mark of Destiny Token. It contained Destiny’s aura.

Zhang Ruochen took the iron token back. “I’m the secret emissary of the Scioness. I came here because I had found something. I want to go in and investigate. Now that you’re here, let’s go in together.”
