“May I ask a question?”
Li Chen raised his head and glanced at the woman standing proudly in the layered spaces, as if she were the ruler of all things, and opened his mouth to ask.
“What question?”
“Since you don’t agree to help me kill him, then you won’t just stand by and watch him kill me, will you?” Li Chen asked.
Poem Shadow Dao Saint seemed to ponder for a moment, then nodded: “That’s right.”
“Then I am relieved. It turns out the Jianmu Universe still has true fairness. I am assured this time.” Li Chen said.
“There always was…”
Poem Shadow blinked and realized she hadn’t had time to finish her sentence when this white-haired youth suddenly collapsed straight down.
Beneath him, a flash of blood-red caught him, then instantly tore open the space and fled far away.
Because the event happened so suddenly, many people hadn’t even reacted yet.
Some Palm Realm Powerhouses realized what happened afterward and believed that Li Chen had been merely a broken bow at the end of its strength, only pretending, and became furious, wanting to pursue him.
However, they quickly found an unrivaled power blocked their path. In the face of this mighty force between heaven and earth, even as strong as they were, these Palm Realm Powerhouses couldn’t advance at all.
“Enough. Since I have promised him, let him go. Just as long as he doesn’t cause trouble in the Jianmu Universe.” Poem Shadow Dao Saint said expressionlessly.
“But, Lady Shi Yin…” Someone couldn’t help but speak up, wanting to remind Poem Shadow Dao Saint not to be deceived.
In the past, in their eyes, Poem Shadow Dao Saint was supreme and indisputable.
But it seemed with that white-haired guy, she was easily deceived?
“No need to say more. I said, since I already promised him, give him the fairness he wants.” Poem Shadow’s words stopped everything they wanted to say.
A group of people helplessly retreated awkwardly.
“I didn’t expect things to become so uninteresting.” At this time, Butterfly Rakshasa of Yangchun Road suddenly snorted in laughter.
She glanced at the nearby Autumn Water Dao Saint, who was still looking at her with vigilance, and shook her head: “Yu Ning, is this the power you are pursuing?”
“But it seems that even with such great power, one still has to be constrained by some things. If that’s the case, why not happily do what you want to do?”
Saying this, Butterfly Rakshasa turned to look at Mo Ying beside Leng Yuning, shaking her head: “Forget it, facing you like this, I don’t even have the desire for revenge anymore.”
She turned around, glanced at Leng Yuning with eyes full of pity, then disappeared from the place.
To someone who even has to suppress their own emotions and lives so miserably, Butterfly Rakshasa couldn’t even muster hatred.
Because in her view, such a person’s mere existence is painful.
Although they were fellow disciples, their personalities were two extremes.
It seemed like a legendary tale. The sect they worshipped was originally just an ordinary sect of an intermediate plane.
Leng Yuning had better talent, coupled with her natural Charm Body and indifferent appearance, she always shone brightly outside. While she was just an ordinary disciple.
At that time, Leng Yuning and she were still on good terms, like sisters.
But later, Leng Yuning’s Charm Body grew stronger, to suppress this power affecting others, she became colder, even gradually distancing herself.
However, Butterfly Rakshasa never expected that one day, Leng Yuning would do something like this.
After being betrayed, Butterfly Rakshasa was initially angry, then resentful, and by now completely calmed.
A person with no emotion, or who actively abandons emotions, is no different from a dead one.
Such a person doesn’t deserve her hatred nor is worthy of it.
Butterfly Rakshasa fluttered away.
Leng Yuning stood silently in the air, a complex glimmer flashed in her eyes, quickly concealed.
“Yu Ning, I…” Mo Ying flew over, just about to speak, but was interrupted by Leng Yuning: “No need to say more. I have my own plan, you… go.”
Mo Ying’s original expectation quickly turned into deep disappointment.
Staring at Leng Yuning, Mo Ying nodded, said no more, and turned away.
Never looking back.
“Lady Shi Yin.”
Mo Ying didn’t leave directly but approached near Poem Shadow Dao Saint.
“Destruction Law Saint, is there something more?” Poem Shadow asked with slight surprise, looking at this genius Dao Saint with considerable renown across Jiankong Realm with curiosity.
“I just wanted to say goodbye to you.” Mo Ying’s expression showed slight respect because his current saint status was achieved due to Poem Shadow Dao Saint’s past guidance; for Mo Ying, Poem Shadow was one to be thankful for.
“Goodbye?” Poem Shadow’s brows furrowed.
“Yes, I plan to leave the Jianmu Universe and venture outside.” Mo Ying softly spoke: “Therefore, I wanted to first express gratitude to you, Lady Shi Yin, for your cultivation of me. In the future, if there is another chance, I will repay you in full!”
“You…”
Poem Shadow glanced at the nearby Leng Yuning with unchanged expression, then lightly nodded: “Go.”
“Thank you.”
Mo Ying stepped back two paces, deeply bowed to Poem Shadow, then flashed away, leaving the place.
The Jiankong Realm has direct access beyond the universe, but due to the uniqueness of the Dreamfall Battlefield, leaving it becomes more challenging, of course, merely leaving the Jianmu Universe.
Watching Mo Ying’s silent departure, a rare bit of melancholy flashed in Leng Yuning’s eyes.
In her heart, it felt as if suddenly something was missing.
Suddenly somewhat empty.
But, having chosen this path, she couldn’t turn back anymore.
Soon afterward, she too disappeared.
Poem Shadow glanced at everyone present, deeply looked at Mie Xing, then released Mie Xing from imprisonment, and disappeared.
Mie Xing quickly fled with the help of his disciple, Dark Water Dao Saint, now gravely injured and not daring to stay.
Afterward, seeing there was nothing else to watch, the group of powerhouses also left one after another. Honestly, most were satisfied, having witnessed several exchanges between Dao Saints, each one more advanced, even seeing Poem Shadow Dao Saint, who hadn’t been challenged for years, make a move.
Solitary Elder Taoist Saint’s face was livid, feeling he had a belly full of fire with nowhere to release.
On the contrary, Saint Tao Wu looked quite pleased.
No choice, he had exchanged many good things for a Ningdao Stone held by Li Chen.
The powerhouses departed, unaware of a black tide capable of devouring everything silently surging in the Vast Nihility beyond Jianmu Universe, rapidly approaching Jianmu Universe.
