Chapter 2189 - 2186: Holy Puppet, Only One Person
Chapter 2189: Chapter 2186: Holy Puppet, Only One Person
At this moment, Xie Ruhai could only make concessions.
If he could force Xiao Yi to make a solemn vow, it would be the only thing he could do now.
Vows may seem to offer no guarantees.
But for true monsters, some solemn oaths, if violated, are enough to create a heart demon.
This is something no heavenly talent or monster would dare to risk.
However, his last hope was evidently dashed.
"Xie Ruhai, I think you misunderstood something."
"Negotiating terms with me? You seem to have forgotten who I, Xiao Yi, am."
"Fight, die, or leave. Choose one."
As the words fell, Xiao Yi immediately made his move.
His face was full of confidence.
The sword in his hand, immensely powerful.
Three space rifts appeared in the air.
One filled with sword intent.
One with surging flames.
One enveloped in poisonous gas.
Xiao Yi’s sword transformed in that instant.
On the sword body, already extremely sharp, three layers of hazy light were distinctly gathered.
One layer, the sharpness of sword intent.
One layer, surrounded by flames, with six fierce fire dragons encircling the sword body.
One layer, utterly dark, as if flowing with venomous liquid.
This sword wielded terrifying power.
Before the sword was drawn, the space of heaven and earth was already disintegrating continuously.
When the sword was drawn, a cold gleam was blinding.
Before the sword arrived, everything in front had already continuously been annihilated under the sword momentum.
"This... this... this..." Xie Ruhai’s eyes widened.
Almost instantly, he could feel the extreme crisis from this sword.
To make a martial artist at his level feel such strong sense of death already proved the terror of this sword.
"Not good..." Xie Ruhai only quietly uttered in his heart.
The moment this sense of death appeared, he had already made his decision.
His silhouette instantly retreated, fleeing without hesitation.
Whoosh...
The sword momentum already crushed forth.
This vast heaven and earth, as if collapsing.
Xie Ruhai’s silhouette had already fled a million miles away.
But the hundreds of supreme peak evil cultivators present, none were spared.
Seconds after the sword fell, everything returned to normal.
The entire world abruptly emptied.
Xie Ruhai had already escaped, while hundreds of evil cultivators were all dead.
"Wow, so fierce." Qing Lin was startled.
"This pervert..." Ran Qi smacked his lips.
Qing Lin suddenly realized, "Junior Brother Xiao Yi, pursue him, don’t let that old thing get away."
At this moment, the sword was withdrawn.
"Pfft." Xiao Yi spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva.
"Hmm?" The three present changed color without exception.
"Junior Brother Xiao Yi."
"Xiao Yi."
"Young Master."
"I’m fine." Xiao Yi waved his hand, retracted Purple Lightning, and then wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Don’t worry." Xiao Yi glanced at Yiyi and smiled.
Then he looked at Qing Lin, smiled bitterly, "With my current strength, I can kill Xie Ruhai, but the cost is too great."
"He ran away, I can’t be bothered to chase."
"Of course." Qing Lin nodded repeatedly, "It’s not worth getting seriously injured for that old scoundrel."
"Let’s leave here first." Xiao Yi said.
The group flew through the air and left.
The space that had been collapsed by the fighting quickly restored itself.
Here in the Central Region, space is solid and the space law of heaven and earth remains intact.
Wisps of green wind gradually circulated over, refilling the space again.
Thousands of miles away.
The group stopped.
On a high mountain, the group gazed at this place surrounded by green wind, an absolutely beautiful sight.
"Phew." Xiao Yi exhaled slightly, his face showing a hint of solemnity.
Qing Lin and Ran Qi looked particularly serious, saying, "What exactly is that Holy Puppet?"
"I saw Xie Ruhai seemed extremely cautious, even tense."
"But of course." Qing Lin said in a deep voice, "That Holy Puppet allows those eight mere supreme peak cultivation evil cultivators, to leap and possess sixth layer of Saint Sovereign Realm of battle power, it’s truly scary."
"Mere supreme peak?" Ran Qi smiled playfully, "What’s your current cultivation?"
Qing Lin pursed his lips.
Running Qi was only joking of course, it wasn’t the main point.
Qing Lin continued, "Such terrifying puppet techniques, never have I seen anyone from Evil Lord Mansion use them."
"Exactly which power possesses this long-lost ancient peak puppet refining method?"
Xiao Yi shook his head, "Not any power."
"Not any power?" Qing Lin and Ran Qi seemed somewhat puzzled by Xiao Yi’s answer.
Xiao Yi nodded, "This method of refining Holy Puppets has never appeared on the continent for thousands of years, no, should say even longer."
"These are things long lost."
"So precisely speaking, it is not which power possesses, but..."
"Which person possesses." Xiao Yi’s tone sank.
"Which person?" The two’s faces changed, "If someone possesses this method of refining Holy Puppets, wouldn’t they’ve already turned the world upside down?"
"Who can possess it?"
Xiao Yi said in a deep voice, "To my knowledge, only one person."
"Who?" The two asked continuously.
"Ancient Emperor." Xiao Yi spat out two words.
"That most ancient Emperor Title holder, it’s rumored he also controls the most martial arts, the most means."
"And to my understanding, he also mastered artifact refining, and knew the method to refine Holy Puppets while alive."
The two were startled by the revelation.
But having entered the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb and truly broken through the situation, not the slightest doubt in Xiao Yi’s words.
Xiao Yi looked into the distance with solemn eyes, "It seems, some matters I still have to return to Eight Palaces to inquire, especially to ask Senior Luoo."
Xiao Yi exhaled slightly, he said no more.
Then, he chuckled lightly, looking at the two, "Long time no see, discuss affairs?"
"Of course." Qing Lin laughed heartily, then complained, "You brat, you left Holy Moon Sect a year and a half ago without even greeting us, bidding goodbye."
"You disappeared silently with the Holy Daughter."
"Really not enough sincerity."
Xiao Yi chuckled, "I left in a hurry back then."
"Firstly, I have some people I didn’t know how to face."
"Secondly, I simply decided not to face it at all, left everything behind, let it all go."
"You’re quite free-spirited." Qing Lin scolded with a laugh.
"Marvelous, marvelous." Ran Qi wore a big smile, took out three jugs of wine, and said, "The three of us are gathering here beyond the green wind’s site."
"Firstly, there is fine wine, secondly, there is a beautiful scene, truly marvelous."
After speaking, Ran Qi gulped down a mouthful of strong liquor.
"Since that matter, I haven’t been able to have a good drinking session for a long time."
Xiao Yi’s face slightly condensed, saying nothing.
Qing Lin also gulped a mouthful of wine on his own.
They all know the matter Ran Qi spoke of was naturally about Ye Liu.
"Sigh." Qing Lin sighed, opened his mouth, "This Central Region, unpredictable; this world, hard to say what’s constant."
"Today we can still gather and drink."
"Next time?"
Qing Lin paused, said, "Will there be a next time?"
Qing Lin’s meaning was, is there definitely a next time?
This Central Region is ultimately dangerous, full of battles everywhere.
And they are ultimately young, destined to run around.
Who can guarantee always safe, life without barriers?
"Just do your best, no regrets." Xiao Yi chuckled.
"A martial artist’s life is destined to be bumpy, thinking too much is useless."
