Chapter 2869 - 102: A Visit Here
Just as Jiang Wang floated in his frost-covered cloak, his sword poised at Zhu Lanruo’s jade neck, an extremely sharp sword light pierced the skies like a bolt of startled lightning, illuminating the heavens in an instant!
"You treat me like a dog, think I’m Ken Xihua?!"
Lu Qilang had arrived!
Though Jiang Wang had done his utmost, it was impossible to resolve Zhu Lanruo in an instant, and his entanglement with Lan Yin’s fruit delayed him for a brief moment.
For Lu Qilang, whose ability to seize the moment was supreme, that fleeting instant was the eternal divide between life and death.
Flame Flower Burning City was the most skillfully mastered and potent Dao Technique Jiang Wang possessed, yet it couldn’t halt Lu Qilang, whose killing power was fully unleashed.
This sword, long prepared, was fully liberated, its sword light spanning heaven and earth yet constricted, flashing silently like boundless electric arcs.
Jiang Wang had just stepped out of Flame City, resembling a Heavenly God, slicing Zhu Lanruo with his sword.
Lu Qilang walked into Flame City from behind, his brocade robe fluttering, striding boldly.
And where he tread, fissures naturally sprang forth. Pavilions, towers, streets... occasionally emitted the sound of cracking.
As he reached Jiang Wang’s back, the scorching city split from the center, collapsing behind him.
His strides seemed so leisurely, yet they swiftly closed the distance, as if each step landed on the nexus of the journey.
His sword remained in his hand, maintaining a distance from Jiang Wang, yet the frost shroud around Jiang Wang had begun to crack, the surrounding red flames had split, his green robe ruptured, even his spine started to break!
This sword from Lu Qilang pierced through the distance and nearly all defenses!
Just as Jiang Wang, with supreme battle sense, nearly suppressed Zhu Lanruo’s Lan Yin Divine Skills and was about to slay her, Lu Qilang sounded the death knell for him!
The sound seemed sudden, but it was not abrupt. Since he had to leap from the Red Mirror, Jiang Wang had been walking the razor’s edge of life and death.
Every confrontation with Yang Yu, Shujia Lan, and even Lingxihua was a brush with mortality.
The perilous moments were surmounted by his formidable courage, will, and countless life-and-death battles that honed his fighting prowess.
And now, he was simply on the same path, the path Yang Yu failed to anticipate, Shujia Lan misjudged, leading to inevitable demise.
Indeed, he hadn’t erred.
But to survive this battle, avoiding mistakes wasn’t enough, nor was achieving perfection. His opponents were also supreme beings. He fought as one against many, all by himself!
Feeling the pain and tearing sensation from his spine, the punch mark from Shujia Lan heating his chest, Lingxihua’s bone spear piercing his body, and the earlier unhealed wounds from Frost Wind Valley...
Jiang Wang felt his consciousness plummet!
He was falling endlessly into a vast abyss.
Even so, he clenched his sword, his roaring Sword Qi propelling him to the limit, widening the gap with Lu Qilang while closing in on Zhu Lanruo—
Frost wind spiraled on the Cold Blade, wielding the ultimate Heavenly Will’s kill, cutting Zhu Lanruo down!
As Lu Qilang said, my visit to the Monster Realm is indeed a spectacle.
Since death cannot be reversed, this solo battle drama must add another exciting plot, adding another feat of glory!
The human race’s genius, Jiang Wang, battled alone against the five powerhouses of the Demon clan’s Heavenly List.
He killed Yang Yu, Shujia Lan, defeated Lingxihua, and now slays Zhu Lanruo!
Or perhaps...
Jiang Wang, with his last will, stared intently at the beautiful gleaming eyes ahead—
Is there still another possibility, Zhu Lanruo?!
In Shenxiao World, there are infinite possibilities; Lan Yin’s fruit is a mythical Divine Skill.
Whoosh!
When the Longsword wielding Heavenly Will’s kill descended.
Zhu Lanruo transformed into a puddle of water.
And not far away in the Eternal Youth Spring, water reshaped into Zhu Lanruo.
This occurred so suddenly, yet so smoothly.
It’s uncertain if she switched to her water form abruptly or fought in her water form from the start.
One thing is clear, even without Lu Qilang’s timely arrival, she wouldn’t die. She had already arranged within the Eternal Youth Spring to leave herself ample room for error...
But her left little finger suddenly vanished, on it her broken string looped.
Jiang Wang’s Sword Intent continued to strike her; the Buzhou Wind still billowed around her!
The wind that extinguishes all was far colder than the Immortal Spring Water infused with Divine Declining Power.
Zhu Lanruo’s eyes glittered, instinctively reactivating her Divine Skills.
Bang!
Jiang Wang’s figure crashed into the Eternal Youth Spring, spraying water everywhere!
Zhu Lanruo’s figure appeared on the mountain path, her back facing Lu Qilang. With slender jade fingers, she lightly pinched Lu Qilang’s Longsword, pushing it backward.
Lan Yin’s fruit, Cause and Effect exchange.
I exchange the cause in the Eternal Youth Spring with the cause in the Divine Mountain path. I exchange the cause of being subjected to Heavenly Will’s Frost Wind with the cause of being sliced by Lu Qilang’s Longsword!
She indeed saw Lu Qilang’s sword had cut Jiang Wang. But from those scarlet-gold eyes, not much emotion could be seen, unable to determine if Jiang Wang would be slain or when he would die.
She certainly couldn’t sacrifice herself nor risk her own adventure to hasten Jiang Wang’s already destined mortal outcome. Furthermore, the Eternal Youth Spring innately possesses Divine Declining Power, serving as her weapon.
