Chapter 260: Erasing Su Wenxi from the Book of Life and Death, Welcome Back, Sword Saint Huang Jianjiu (Part 2)
"
Great Elder Fang Hanshu's beard fluttered in the moonlight, and his figure gradually blurred.
Su Leibao spoke coldly, "What did the Su family do?"
"Every woman is a daughter-in-law of the Su family, married with proper betrothal gifts and the consent of her family. It was a willing arrangement... What crime has the Su family committed?!"
"The Su family will remember today's events!"
"Lingnan City is not a place where the Heavenly Origin Sect can do as they please. The Su family is not to be bullied by you. The Su family has two daughters in the Divine Capital, one a favored concubine of the emperor, and the other a concubine of the third prince!"
"Fang Hanshu..."
"You'll see!"
Su Leibao spoke in a deep voice.
"Imperial Concubine, Prince's Consort..." Fang Hanshu shook his head slightly.
"The Su family men absorb the talents of women, and the talented women they raise are sent to curry favor with the powerful. It's no wonder they can stand tall in the Dao City for three thousand years..."
"The first family of Lingnan Dao, indeed a well-deserved reputation."
Fang Hanshu clasped his hands behind his back and took a step forward.
"What dissatisfaction, what unyieldingness..."
"Please find Grandmaster Lu Taibai."
"He is the true leader of the Heavenly Origin Sect. He should bear the consequences."
As Fang Hanshu finished speaking, his entire body had already ridden the wind and disappeared into the night.
Su Leibao's face, neck, and hands were covered in bulging blue veins that wouldn't stop twitching.
How dare he!
Fang Hanshu...
He had gone too far!
...
...
The moonlight shone clear and bright, illuminating the distant city towers.
Drunken Goose Tower.
A serene silence enveloped the place.
The moonlight was delicate and elegant, like a thin veil, casting a faint glow over the entire building, making it bright and dazzling.
Huang Jianjiu closed his eyes, and his skin still retained the color of black jade, with patterns blooming on it.
This was the body of a Demi-God Corpse, incredibly powerful, and the Corpse Deity Sect required vast resources to cultivate a Demi-God Corpse.
If it weren't for the difficulty of infiltrating the Heavenly Origin Sect, the Corpse Deity Sect wouldn't have come to know about Huang Jianjiu's desire. Upon learning of his need, they followed the scent and arrived.
Huang Jianjiu was worried that his physical body couldn't withstand the strike of a Sword Immortal.
The two, with their similar stench, quickly struck a deal.
Huang Jianjiu obtained a Corpse God Seal and, with the power of the Corpse Deity, along with the abundant resources provided by the Corpse Deity Sect, transformed his physical body into a Demi-God Corpse.
Usually, he used precious Corpse Deity Pearls to conceal his aura, which prevented him from being discovered.
The moonlight gently showered down.
The Boss Lady, despite being drunk, still possessed some martial arts skills. Although she couldn't hold her liquor, as she gradually suppressed the effects, she became sober.
She moved slightly, and her body stiffened.
She felt a cold palm resting on the floral cloth that covered her hair. In an instant, she understood everything.
"Wuu—"
She covered her mouth, and large tears streamed down from the corners of her wrinkled eyes, falling one after another.
She dared not lift her head.
But eventually, she had to. Her entire body trembled, and her face turned so pale that all the blood seemed to have drained from it.
Slowly, she raised her head. The hand that had been resting on her head seemed to have lost all its strength and slid down powerlessly.
The Boss Lady stared blankly at Huang Jianjiu, whose eyes were closed, and whose entire body was covered in black jade patterns under the moonlight.
Even at this moment, when Huang Jianjiu looked like a devil, unrecognizable as a human...
She still recognized him.
"Jianjiu..."
The Boss Lady's voice trembled.
Her eyes were a bit dazed, as if suffocating, and countless scenes flashed before her like a revolving lantern.
That year, a sword-wielding youth had rescued her from a village ravaged by a strange temple, leaving her as the sole survivor.
At that time, she was small and alone, without any relatives. From that moment on, her world consisted only of Huang Jianjiu.
Jianjiu taught her sword techniques, but she was dull and lacked any innate talent for the sword path.
Jianjiu taught her martial arts, and she barely managed to complete the skin-toughening process...
In terms of divine essence, she didn't possess any talent as a spiritual child.
She was just an ordinary person, a mortal from a common village, incompatible with the world of cultivation.
She should have been as timid as a sensitive plant, shrinking her head and retreating to the mundane world.
But she couldn't bear to leave. Her only world was in the realm of cultivation, so she... had to stay there too.
She started learning to brew wine and gradually produced many fine wines. She even learned from pill concocting techniques, infusing spiritual materials to create wines that contained divine essence.
She exerted all her strength to stand firm in the world of cultivation and opened the Drunken Goose Tower.
Unbeknownst to her, decades had passed.
The Boss Lady had never imagined...
That Huang Jianjiu would die before her.
Drip, drip.
Large tears rolled down from her eyes. She bit her lip, trembling as she stretched out her hand to caress Huang Jianjiu's cheek, even though her palm felt frozen, as if it had been chilled by the deathly aura and corpse energy.
She didn't stop.
"Why didn't you marry me and have children with me?"
"If I had known you would die so soon, I should have found a way to get you drunk and force you into it!"
The Boss Lady bit her lip and hummed.
"How could you die before me?"
"You're the unparalleled sword master who can fly and escape!"
"I even brewed so much wine for you, but you never tasted it..."
"Now that you're gone..."
"My world has lost its daylight."
The Boss Lady's tears fell, and her eyes suddenly turned tender.
She grabbed a wine jar and smashed it to the ground.
Clang! The shards flew in all directions, and wine splattered everywhere.
She clenched her five fingers around a sharp shard of the wine jar and slowly pressed it against her neck.
"Hmph..."
"Don't even think about getting rid of me!"
The Boss Lady hummed softly, and the next moment, her tender eyes stared at Huang Jianjiu, who was leaning on his chin with his eyes closed, devoid of any signs of life.
She was about to slash her own throat.
However...
An invisible force shot out, turning the wine jar shard in her hand into powder that scattered on the ground.
The Boss Lady was stunned.
Suddenly, the moonlight seemed to be devoured and obscured by terrifying darkness.
She turned her head and saw a towering figure standing on the railing, like a sharp spear piercing the sky.
Under a cute ox demon mask, his eyes were deep.
The Boss Lady felt her breath freeze.
She clenched her fist, took a step forward, and trembled as she blocked the Ox Demon's path.
"Don't you dare touch my husband's body!"
The Ox Demon's back trembled, and he slowly lowered his head to look at Huang Jianjiu's body, then at the petite Boss Lady, who was as insignificant as a mayfly, blocking the corpse.
Under the mask, there seemed to be a slight curve at the corner of his lips.
"I can bring him back to life."
"Do you want to try?"
The Boss Lady's body trembled violently.
Although it was a demonic whisper, at this moment...
To her, it was...
Like heavenly music.
...
...
Heavenly Origin Dao City.
Thunder Listening Lane.
Independent Workshop Courtyard.
Buzz! Li Che wore the Ox Demon mask, and his figure instantly reappeared, his palm gripping the white Flying Thunder Chess Piece like a fan.
The towering figure stood silently in the courtyard, and an invisible storm of chaotic energy rose.
In the corner of the courtyard, Li Qingshan stood hunched over, his back soaked in cold sweat, and he held the Book of Life and Death while wearing a cat-faced mask.
However, Li Qingshan's eyes shone with excitement, unable to contain his thrill... It was too exhilarating!
He had just put on a grand act in front of a Divine Embryo expert and a Half-Saint Divine Talisman Master!
As a new member of the Netherworld, Cat Face felt his presence amplified, and he no longer chose to charge at the forefront...
He only needed to wait for his Netherworld colleagues, like Ox Demon, Horse Face, Divine Monkey, Thunder Dragon, and others, to complete their heroic feat, and then he could come out and finish the job.
Just like that, he was already very satisfied.
The overwhelming sense of participation made him truly... open-hearted.
Seeing the Ox Demon return, Li Qingshan let out a sigh of relief.
They had killed a Martial Saint!
Although the main killing move was Huang Jianjiu's decisive sword strike, which had reached the realm of the Sword Saint...
Li Qingshan believed that their Netherworld had undoubtedly played an indispensable role!
Li Che glanced at Li Qingshan, who raised the Book of Life and Death in his hand, as if to say, "Well done."
Shaking his head, Li Che didn't quite understand Li Qingshan's persistence.
It was just a kill; why the need to go out of the way to finish it off?
Was this so-called sense of ceremony that important?
Li Che couldn't understand Li Qingshan, and he didn't bother to care.
As he ascended the tower, the Temple Deity Power returned to the mud pill within his forehead.
With a flick of his finger, Huang Jianjiu's corpse appeared, his black jade body shimmering with intricate patterns.
From a distance, Li Qingshan was startled, his eyes narrowing, and the next moment, excitement surged forth!
Here it comes!
Li Che glanced at Huang Jianjiu's corpse, raised his palm, and pressed it against Huang Jianjiu's mud pill.
"Capture Spirit."
"Divinity... Return!"
The voice was majestic, like a deep, muffled thunderclap.
It reverberated throughout the courtyard.
Boom!
In an instant, the entire courtyard seemed to tremble.
Li Che's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
However, a swirling Corpse God Seal appeared in Huang Jianjiu's forehead, and amidst the swirling, a vast amount of corpse energy and death energy transformed into a twisted and terrifying shadow!
"Corpse God Seal?"
"Does it want to devour Huang Jianjiu's three souls and seven spirits?"
Li Che laughed.
The Heaven-Earth Chessboard rotated, and in an instant, it pulled the Corpse God Seal into the chessboard, suppressing and sealing it!
It landed on the mud pill within the forehead.
The eight Temple Deities opened their eyes simultaneously, roaring like thunder!
The Bright True Ape, embodying the law of the sky and the spirit of the earth, roared and leaped out, suppressing the Corpse God Seal.
Although the Corpse God Seal continued to struggle, it wasn't a significant problem.
"It's time to borrow the power of the dog again."
Li Che muttered.
Then, his gaze fell upon Huang Jianjiu's corpse.
Without the influence of the Corpse God Seal, the Capture Spirit technique took effect.
Countless black energies surged, and a sharp sword hummed, exploding in the courtyard, with silver-white sword light dazzling the eyes.
In his tattered clothes, Huang Jianjiu had a wine gourd hanging at his waist, covered in sword marks.
Huang Jianjiu's captured spirit slowly materialized.
His black jade skin, adorned with intricate patterns, was enveloped in faint black energy, as if outlining the traces.
He carried a sword box on his back, containing a vast sword intention.
The sword energy whipped through the courtyard like a fierce wind, slicing through the air as if it were tofu.
Huang Jianjiu's captured spirit slowly opened his eyes.
A hint of bewilderment appeared in his eyes.
His gaze instantly fell upon the towering Ox Demon.
In that instant, countless pieces of information flooded into Huang Jianjiu's mind.
Sword Nine, slayer of the Martial Saint...
Death, and resurrection...
"I... I'm alive again?"
Huang Jianjiu's scarlet eyes flickered, and a hint of joy spread through his heart.
Revived from the dead.
Was this the power of the Netherworld? What kind of mysterious force was this Netherworld?
To possess the power to revive the dead was simply...
The Netherworld's terror was beyond imagination! Moreover, after his resurrection, his strength had reached the level of a Sword Saint!
He had achieved the Sword Saint realm before his death, so did his resurrection maintain this cultivation level? It was terrifying!
He raised his head and looked at the Ox Demon.
Suddenly, his scarlet pupils contracted.
As a captured spirit, he immediately received information, revealing the identity of the Ox Demon who had resurrected him.
"You... you..."
Huang Jianjiu gasped, grabbing the wine gourd from his waist and pouring it into his mouth, but the recently resurrected Huang Jianjiu had no wine in his gourd.
He wanted to take a drink to calm his nerves, but he couldn't.
The Ox Demon was actually...
Xi Xi's father!
The newly appointed Fifth Elder of Divine Crane Ridge in the Heavenly Origin Sect, Li Che?!
That gentle, cultured, honest, and devoted Li Che, who immersed himself in divine carving techniques?
Huang Jianjiu felt like this stark contrast was tearing his heart out!
So...
The Netherworld Ox Demon, this villain, had been hiding among them all along!
Who would have thought that the Netherworld Ox Demon...
was actually such a devoted divine carving master?
However, as someone who had died once, he quickly calmed his emotions.
He clasped his fists and bowed.
"My lord."
Li Che nodded, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.
As expected, after Huang Jianjiu's resurrection, his cultivation had reached the Martial Saint level...
For Li Che, this was the greatest gain!
This meant that under Li Che's command, there was not only the Blood Sun Nine Deity Golden Monkey, a Martial Saint-level warrior, but also...
a Sword Saint-level warrior with a sword intent as fierce as the north wind and unmatched in battle!
The Netherworld...
had undergone an epic enhancement!
Li Che raised his hand and flicked his finger.
A white Pure Heart Divine Chess Piece shot out, entering Huang Jianjiu's forehead.
In an instant, Huang Jianjiu's forehead rippled like a stone thrown into a mirror lake.
The black jade patterns on his entire body and his scarlet eyes faded away.
The effects of the Demi-God Corpse were completely suppressed by the Pure Heart Chess Piece!
"This is much better."
Li Che smiled.
"Thank you, my lord."
Huang Jianjiu looked at his skin, which had returned to its normal color, although it still had a faint black glow...
At least it was more pleasing to the eye than the ugly appearance of the Demi-God Corpse.
It wouldn't scare the Boss Lady anymore.
Under the moonlight, Li Che removed the Ox Demon mask, his black hair dancing wildly, and he smiled warmly.
"Welcome back."
"Sword Saint Huang Jianjiu."
