School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master Chapter 2354 - 2440: Blade and Sword Duel

The Poison Queen wanted to stop Lu Qingshan, but it was already too late.

As Lu Qingshan casually grabbed, those children already turned to dust, transforming into spiritual power absorbed by Lu Qingshan’s body.

When the Poison Queen rushed out, she was already too late to stop it.

"Why?"

The Poison Queen stood in place and asked softly.

"Ruoyan, they were nothing more than my illusions. We must win this battle. I did it for you. At worst, I can manifest a few more identical ones for you later."

Sword Saint Lu Qingshan explained, still somewhat concerned about Zhu Ruoyan’s feelings, though he seemed to care little for those illusory children.

Chen Nan smiled inwardly, indeed fearing gods-like opponents more than a pig-like self.

This Lu Qingshan... even a man like myself can’t like him, let alone the proud Poison Queen Zhu Ruoyan.

"They accompanied us for thousands of years. Was it all pretend during those years? Were your feelings for them fake?" Zhu Ruoyan’s voice was somewhat hoarse.

Lu Qingshan was stunned, "They... they were just illusions. My heart has always been with you. How could I have feelings for non-existent things?"

Lu Qingshan’s voice sounded a bit aggrieved.

Chen Nan found this amusing.

"Brother Liushui, do you think those children deserved to die?"

Chen Nan asked.

Li Liushui thought for a moment and said, "If Xiao Yan likes them, I would certainly take care of them. In this world of truths and falsehoods, what is real and what is fake? In my heart, Xiao Yan is real, Brother Chen is real, and those children’s laughter is adorable. Even if they’re not real, how are they any different from the real thing? In this vast Heaven and Earth, we are but a speck in the ocean, merely derived from the Heavenly Dao, just like them."

Through his interactions over the days, Chen Nan understood that Li Liushui was genuinely kind at heart.

It was why he asked this question; he didn’t expect Li Liushui’s answer to be so moving.

"Brother Liushui, you’re amazing. This answer is simply my perfect answer in my heart."

Chen Nan praised silently.

He looked over at the Poison Queen, but under the black cloak, he couldn’t see what expression she wore.

"You speak of this world of truths and falsehoods. First, let me offer you to the sword and see whether you’re real or fake."

Lu Qingshan raised the Immortal Sword high. In an instant, the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder continuously surged onto the sword’s blade. In that Heaven and Earth, the most terrifying aura gathered on this sword.

Seeing this, the Poison Queen shook her head, "Brother Shui, you better leave quickly. You can’t possibly withstand One Sword Flying Immortal. Even if you don’t think of yourself, consider your young brother here."

"Xiao Yan, I could leave, but only if you leave with me."

Li Liushui said.

"Impossible. I cannot go with you. Xiao Yan will spend her life here. Brother Shui, leave. I have never wronged you before and won’t in the future. But... I really cannot go with you. Xiao Yan hopes to leave the best memories in Brother Shui’s heart."

Zhu Ruoyan’s body trembled slightly as she spoke to Li Liushui.

"Hmph, my One Sword Flying Immortal, nobody can block it, not even you, Li Liushui. Now leave. For Xiao Yan’s sake, I’ll spare both of your lives."

Sword Saint Lu Qingshan’s face changed violently. The Nine Heavens Divine Thunder infused into the Immortal Sword, and sweat kept pouring from his forehead, "Once I unleash One Sword Flying Immortal, if there’s no blood, the sword won’t turn back. You two better think it through."

Chen Nan glanced at the Abyss Divine Tree and Ancient Divine Worm on his brow. These two divine objects seemed like ornaments, playfully appearing there.

The Abyss Divine Tree and Ancient Divine Worm would not launch an attack unless they sensed Chen Nan’s life was threatened.

"Blabbering on and on, do you think your One Sword Flying Immortal is that impressive?" Just then, Li Liushui countered, "I can do One Strike Slaying God."

He stood in place, but his figure moved, raising a kitchen knife over his head.

No reaction.

Chen Nan looked on awkwardly. Even though the Immortal Sword was broken and ancient-looking, at least it had Immortal Energy, but your kitchen knife...

Moreover, the Ultimate Move isn’t easily mastered.

Chen Nan didn’t believe it at all in his heart.

Zhu Ruoyan shook her head, "Brother Shui, although your talent is incredible, the years have dulled the knife’s intent in you. Learning this move isn’t something that happens overnight. Don’t be stubborn, leave quickly. If Xiao Yan regains her former form... cough, cough!"

Unable to help herself, Zhu Ruoyan nearly revealed something, but realizing her error, she stopped abruptly.

"Did she just mention her former form? She’s hiding under a black cloak, covered by black robes. Could it be..."

Chen Nan pondered, considering a possibility.

With Li Liushui still raising the kitchen knife, looking quite serious, yet without any celestial movement, it seemed solemn, but seeing it, one couldn’t help but want to laugh.

"Brother Liushui, there’s something I want to confirm. Back then... when your master, the Poison Supreme Nan Xiangzi, cultivated the Poison Scripture and deviated, was his appearance disfigured?"

Chen Nan sent the voice directly to his ear and asked.

"Brother Chen, I’m currently casting One Strike Slaying God, an Ultimate Move. Don’t disturb me, okay? My master has long since died, but if this move fails, we’ll both die..."

Li Liushui said, feeling frustrated.

"But was there any?"

Chen Nan pressed on, "This matter is important to me."

"Of course there was. Cultivating the Poison Scripture and deviating made even the Divine Soul poisoned. When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs survive unbroken? Naturally, the flesh rotted too. My master suffered terribly back then. I sought many cures but none helped. I even sought Xiao Yan but couldn’t find her, sigh. Even if I did, in all my years studying the Poison Scripture, only your Creation Jade Disc could recreate life..."

Li Liushui felt desolate inside.

"Alright, continue with One Strike Slaying God. At least keep Lu Qingshan in check."

Chen Nan truly held no hope in Li Liushui’s One Strike Slaying God. Right now, he seemed genuinely saddened, but no matter how you looked, it felt like a joke.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen..."

As Chen Nan planned to speak with the Poison Queen, Li Liushui suddenly called out to him.

"Xiao Yan is extraordinarily talented. Nan Xiangzi once praised her, she... could she also experience that calamity?"

Li Liushui felt unsure, but Chen Nan thought he wasn’t too dim after all.

He seemed to fall into deep thought.

Chen Nan couldn’t be bothered, directly asking, "Sister Poison Queen, while cultivating the Poison Scripture, have you encountered any issues? If you speak, perhaps we might help."

His words were incredibly tactful, fearing we’d make the Poison Queen Zhu Ruoyan uncomfortable.

At that moment, Li Liushui suddenly raised his voice towards the void, shouting, "Wind, come..."

As he spoke, from the endless void, the Heaven and Earth Gang Wind surged in, rushing eagerly into the kitchen knife.
