Chapter 327: Rescue! Divine Sword Thunder! Revenge Cannot Be Entrusted to Others (Part 2)
"
Li Huafa's lips curled into a sneer, "What a pity, you've met me. I've prepared for your self-destruction."
He 'flashed' behind Ji Chu Tong, and a black talisman appeared in his hand, which he stuck to Ji Chu Tong's shoulder.
"..."
Ji Chu Tong's face changed.
'Sizzle'...
Like deflating, her originally swollen body returned to normal.
"What's this?!"
"I've failed once before." Li Huafa waved his hand, and a flashing black chain appeared in his hand. He coldly said, "So, I won't allow myself to fail a second time."
"Self-destruction? I'm prepared for that."
Hula!
With a flick of his hand, the chain covered in dark energy suddenly coiled around Ji Chu Tong.
Suppressed by the talisman, Ji Chu Tong was unable to use her own strength and could only watch helplessly as the chain wrapped around her. In the end, she closed her eyes in despair.
"I've got her!" Li Huafa exclaimed with excitement.
But...
He didn't notice that a spatial rift had appeared behind him.
By the time he realized, it was too late! Boom!!!
A hidden weapon suddenly shot out from the rift, its speed so fast that it was terrifying to behold. Li Huafa barely managed to dodge, causing the weapon to slightly shift its trajectory.
Even so, he was still hit.
His right shoulder exploded instantly, spraying blood mist, and his right arm flew out along with the chain in his hand.
"What?!"
His face paled, but he didn't panic. Instead, he used his Primordial Spirit Power to control the chain, still intending to bind Ji Chu Tong...
...
In a secret chamber of Bright Moon Palace.
Lu Ming quietly put away his Barrett, gazing at the scene through the Eightfold Mirror Technique and muttering, "Finally, I've caught up."
"Testing the might of the Barrett after its growth, even without the 'Artificial Sun Bullet,' its power is still not to be underestimated."
"Then..."
"The counterattack begins, the battle has officially started!"
"..."
"Get lost!"
A loud shout!
Unusual Fire filled the sky.
Xiao Ling'er descended like an empress amidst a sea of flames.
Countless 'crystals' frantically grew in the air, but upon closer inspection, one would notice that these crystals were actually burning!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The chain tightened rapidly!
At some point, Ji Chu Tong had already donned a crystal armor!
The chain coiled around her, clicking and clacking, but it couldn't truly bind Ji Chu Tong.
Just then, Xiao Ling'er arrived, stepping on a thunderbolt, and rescued Ji Chu Tong. With a wave of her hand, she ignited the chain, setting it ablaze.
The Unextinguishable Flame could burn all things in the world!
"Are you okay?"
Holding Ji Chu Tong with one arm, Xiao Ling'er tore off the black talisman from her shoulder and ignited it, turning it into ashes in an instant.
"..."
Ji Chu Tong struggled to turn her head towards Xiao Ling'er and finally smiled helplessly, "You've caused me trouble."
Then, she tilted her head.
She fainted.
Xiao Ling'er quickly fed her a Heaven-Patching Pill and then looked at the crowd.
"What...?"
"What choice do you make?"
"What choice?"
Li Huafa covered his shoulder, but his expression didn't show the slightest discomfort; instead, he was filled with excitement, "Xiao Ling'er, hahaha..."
"Xiao Ling'er!"
"You deserve to die, you truly deserve to die!"
"The heavens have eyes."
"Finally, you've been delivered to me."
"..."
Xiao Ling'er suddenly felt perplexed.
Looking at the surrounding crowd from Hidden Soul Pavilion, she wasn't flustered but instead asked curiously, "Do you know me?"
"Have I met you before?"
This person... is insane!
His expression was so crazed and bloodthirsty, as if he wanted to eat his own flesh, drink his own blood, gnaw on his own bones, and even sleep on his own skin!
Xiao Ling'er was truly baffled.
Because she was sure she had never met this person before.
So...
"We've never met, and you're going crazy at me for what?!" she asked in response to his question.
Li Huafa was slightly taken aback.
Then, all his madness and rage turned into a bitter smile and helplessness.
"Haha..."
He laughed so hard he could barely breathe, "Yes, you haven't met me."
"You... how could you have met me?"
"Before, you were already soaring through the Nine Heavens, a lofty Celestial Prodigy, while we were merely ants. You could crush us with a flick of your fingers, and we were of no concern to you. You could have easily killed countless ants like us at any time!"
"But my father, my clan, my family, everything I care about has died because of you, leaving nothing behind!"
"Rest assured, I won't kill you."
"I'll let you live, let you witness with your own eyes, see everything and everyone you care about, one by one, dying miserably before you."
"Only then will my hatred be appeased!!!"
Xiao Ling'er: "..."
Is he this crazy? She felt her scalp tingling, "Who exactly are you?"
"When have I ever killed innocent people?"
"You haven't killed anyone."
"Hey, perhaps you haven't killed anyone, but everyone I care about has died because of you. You are the main culprit of this grudge!"
"But in the end, you don't even know who I am or why this hatred exists."
"It's truly..."
Li Huafa's severed arm slowly regrew, and his killing intent became so intense that it was almost tangible.
The wind howled.
The wind...
Turned blood-red.
"Madman."
Xiao Ling'er scoffed, "How would I know if you don't tell me?"
Li Huafa's madness made Xiao Ling'er feel dazed.
What had she done to make someone hate her so much?
Had she caused the death of those she cared about?
She pondered, searching her heart. In the decade or so since she began her cultivation journey, it seemed she hadn't done anything wrong. Even if she had destroyed a clan, it was the clan of her enemies, and she hadn't completely eradicated the Xiao Clan, leaving behind some collateral branches and side lineages.
"I'll tell you."
"But..."
"That will be after everyone you care about has died, before you meet your end."
"And before that, hahaha."
"Guess all you want."
"Only when you don't know why this hatred exists, even the source of the grudge, will the despair and helplessness be the greatest punishment, and you'll have deserved it."
As Li Huafa spoke, he was almost at the point of 'climax.'
He was so excited that his entire body trembled.
Xiao Ling'er was stunned. She had never encountered such a person, and never imagined someone could be this crazy.
But...
Who the hell are you?
You're hopeless, powerless, and now you want to punish...
I'd like to see who you can punish, I just want to say.
Xiao Ling'er sighed helplessly, "I know you guys are ready to surround and kill us."
"But..."
"Why don't you take a look outside?"
"Outside?"
Li Huafa scoffed, "In your dreams..."
"In your dreams, what?" A voice suddenly interrupted from behind them.
Li Huafa's body trembled, and goosebumps instantly covered his skin.
"Who?!"
Turning around, they saw an old man standing alone in the void.
He was just standing there, but it was as if he had merged with the heavens and earth.
There were many Gold Medal Protectors in Hidden Soul Pavilion, all of whom were at the Eighth Stage or above, and even several at the peak of the Eighth Stage.
Yet, not a single one of them had noticed the old man's presence until now.
"You..."
"A Ninth Stage?!
Li Huafa's face paled. "Senior, who are you? We are on official business for Hidden Soul Pavilion, don't make a mistake!"
He had worked hard these past years.
And he had gone crazy.
He was willing to give everything, enduring countless hardships, even selling his own divine soul, to achieve his current strength.
But even so, he was only at the Ninth Layer of the Eighth Stage, not a match for a Ninth Stage opponent.
The strongest among the other Gold Medal Protectors was still weaker than him.
If a Ninth Stage cultivator were to make a move...
Even if he used all his tricks, he wouldn't be able to stop them, let alone capture Xiao Ling'er. Escaping alone would already be a stroke of luck.
He could only pin his hopes on the reputation of Hidden Soul Pavilion.
He hoped that the name of Hidden Soul Pavilion would scare them off.
"Nonsense!"
"Who doesn't know that you guys are just a bunch of scoundrels from Hidden Soul Pavilion?"
Ji Haoyue, who was already annoyed, became even more furious at this moment.
His brain was pounding! What's with Hidden Soul Pavilion? I've already decided to make a move, I'm already here, and you want to pressure me with Hidden Soul Pavilion?!
But...
He didn't want to take action, and said, "Xiao Ling'er!"
"With your current strength, dealing with them shouldn't be difficult, right?"
"Why do you need me to make a move?"
Li Huafa suddenly turned to look at Xiao Ling'er, thinking that his intimidation had worked.
If only Xiao Ling'er made a move...
With his own abilities, he could definitely counterattack!
"Am I not saving people here?"
Xiao Ling'er stuck out her tongue. "Moreover, Senior, my master said that the capable should shoulder more responsibilities."
"With so many Seventh and Eighth Stage cultivators, what if I, as a mere woman, make a mistake?"
"So, Senior, please..."
"I'm not a child, you take care of them."
Ji Haoyue: "!!!"
He narrowed his eyes, and a sense of disappointment welled up within him.
"Meeting you guys has really brought me eight lifetimes of bad luck."
He wasn't stupid.
Who would believe such an excuse? Clearly, they wanted to exploit him!
It was simply... infuriating! But he couldn't vent his anger on Xiao Ling'er, so he turned to look at the numerous protectors of Hidden Soul Pavilion.
Since he had already decided to take action, and it was a life-or-death situation, Ji Haoyue naturally had no hesitation.
As he raised his hand, Li Huafa's scalp went numb.
He felt extremely uncomfortable.
They were so close to success!
It was clear that Ji Chu Tong was at the end of her strength, and with his trump card, he was confident in capturing Xiao Ling'er. But then, a Ninth Stage cultivator suddenly appeared!
However, this wasn't the time to be stubborn.
A gentleman's revenge is served cold; there's no need to rush it now.
If he were to be stubborn now, he might not have a chance later.
"Run!"
He shouted.
In fact...
The other protectors of Hidden Soul Pavilion ran even faster than him! They were all demonic cultivators, so why bother with such formalities? When there was no danger, they were like a loving family, but when faced with a crisis, they each fled for their lives... What were they waiting for? Death?
As the saying goes, a dead friend is better than a living enemy. As long as I run faster than my friend, the one who survives will likely be me!
"Escape?!"
"Can you escape?"
As they saw them transforming into streams of light and fleeing, Ji Haoyue coldly snorted.
He had already been angry when he made his move, and now his fury rose even higher.
You bastards, do you think I, a Ninth Stage cultivator, am just for show?
If you escape, where can I put my face?
"Bright Moon in the Sky!"
With a wave of his hand, he changed the world!
Daylight instantly turned into night.
And in the darkness, a bright moon hung high.
Moonlight showered down, heavy as a mountain.
The protectors of Hidden Soul Pavilion were crushed under the weight, forcing them to sink into the ground.
After barely managing to withstand the pressure and adapt, their escape speed slowed down by more than tenfold.
"Damn it!"
Their faces paled, and they split up, desperately trying to escape.
Li Huafa couldn't help but shout, "Ji Haoyue, you're also a renowned figure, why are you acting like a dog for Moon Holding Sect?!"
"Moon Holding Sect took advantage of your absence to invade and capture Bright Moon Palace. Shouldn't you be dealing with them instead of helping them against us?"
"Don't you know that the enemy of my enemy is my friend?"
"If you don't even understand this basic principle, you've wasted most of your life!"
"Moreover, do you think Hidden Soul Pavilion doesn't have a Ninth Stage cultivator?!"
"Nonsense!"
Ji Haoyue coldly snorted, his anger now even more intense.
With a wave of his hand, a large array of techniques erupted, shaking the heavens and earth. The moonlight transformed into a sea of killing intent, simultaneously bombarding the dozens of protectors of Hidden Soul Pavilion.
"Ah!!!"
"Block it!"
"Charge together!"
The protectors roared, fighting desperately to break through.
Alas, the gap was too vast.
Eighth Stage peak Protectors might barely be able to protect themselves, but those below the peak were as good as dead.
In an instant, only a dozen or so remained.
But Ji Haoyue showed no mercy, swiftly closing in and killing them one by one in quick succession!
Ji Haoyue was already faster, and now with the suppression, there was no escape. At the same time, Ji Haoyue regained his confidence.
After becoming a Ninth Stage cultivator, he should have been free to roam the vast heavens.
But before this, he had only acted twice. Once he was beaten like a dog by Hong Wu, and the other time, he had no chance to fight, spending half a day setting up formations without facing a single opponent.
This made Ji Haoyue doubt himself.
Could it be that his Ninth Stage was fake?
But that shouldn't be the case! He was, after all, a Celestial Prodigy, and when he was at the Eighth Stage, he was among the top few. There were hardly any in the same realm who could surpass him!
At this moment, Ji Haoyue finally realized it wasn't his fault.
Thud!
This punch landed on Li Huafa.
"Pffft!"
Li Huafa coughed up blood but didn't explode. Instead, he used the force from the attack to accelerate his escape.
Ji Haoyue's expression darkened.
Didn't explode? Did I get too excited too soon? It shouldn't be!
He immediately pursued.
Xiao Ling'er witnessed everything, and her scalp went numb. "The Ninth Stage is so powerful!"
"But this Li Huafa seems quite capable. He actually withstood the attack?"
At the same time, Ji Chu Tong woke up slowly as the Heaven-Patching Pill healed her.
"Xiao Ling'er?"
She realized she was in Xiao Ling'er's embrace and blinked, feeling a mix of emotions.
If...
Cough.
If Lin Fan didn't have other women, from a certain perspective, she...
Cough, cough, cough.
Or was she his wife?
"Are you okay?"
Xiao Ling'er quickly showed concern.
"..."
"There's no way back now."
Completely surrounded, a massive onslaught came from all directions.
Li Fei Yu, already severely injured, sighed and maintained the Thousand Transformations Technique while raising his longsword.
Boom!
In the Nine Heavens, dark clouds gathered, and thunder rumbled.
"Zongzhu."
"I wouldn't disobey your orders, but..."
"There's no choice."
"I can only give it my all."
"..."
He muttered to himself.
The surrounding Hidden Soul Pavilion Protectors laughed coldly.
"Hmph!"
"Daring to resist at the brink of death?"
"What audacity!"
Li Fei Yu remained silent, ignoring them, and sighed. He spat out a mouthful of essence blood, which attached to his longsword.
What's the point of a desperate situation?
What's the point of impending death? It's just a fight to the death.
Even in death, I will silently shout, seeking justice for the hundreds of people in Qiujia Village.
Even in death, I will raise my sword against the wind, and shout my... unyielding cry!
He then slowly spoke, "Nine Heavens Mystic Cataclysm, transform into divine thunder."
As he finished speaking, he suddenly paused.
Because... he seemed to hear another voice reciting the same incantation as him?
"..."
But that shouldn't be, right? Could it be a dying hallucination?
After a brief hesitation, he continued the incantation, "The mighty heavens..."
"!!!"
This time, Li Fei Yu was certain. He definitely heard it! There was no mistake; someone was reciting the Divine Sword Thunder Technique with him.
But...
Who could it be? But at this critical moment, he couldn't stop, nor did he want to.
No matter who...
This sword must be drawn!
"Huff!"
"Lead with the sword!"
Boom!
In the sky, a thunderbolt descended, attaching to the sword. At this moment, Li Fei Yu was like a thunder god, wielding his Thunderbolt Great Sword, slashing in all directions.
"Divine Sword Thunder Technique!"
Boom!
The thunder exploded.
The sword light raged.
In a short moment, almost everything was swept away.
The onslaught that came was incredibly fierce!
But...
Li Fei Yu froze.
Only those involved know the truth.
This destructive power was beyond what even his prime, burning essence blood could achieve, let alone his current severely injured state.
Moreover, the power and range of this sword were astonishingly impressive.
"So..."
"I didn't mishear, did I?"
He went soft all over and almost sat down.
At that moment, the countless sword lights and thunders transformed into a terrifying thunder sword sea, engulfing the dozens of Hidden Soul Pavilion Protectors around them...
"Well done."
A figure appeared beside Li Fei Yu.
The figure hugged his shoulder, steadying him and preventing him from collapsing.
"Zong...
"Zongzhu?"
Li Fei Yu was overjoyed, then sighed in resignation.
"Disciple..."
"I've let you down."
He hated himself for his weakness but was incredibly grateful to Lin Fan.
He wasn't grateful for saving his life but for secretly coordinating with him, casting the Divine Sword Thunder Technique together, making it seem like he had cast the sword himself.
It was as if...
He was taking revenge.
"You've done well, managing to achieve so much alone. The sect is proud of you; how could I be disappointed?"
Lin Fan shook his head and smiled.
"Return to your true form."
"I'll take you to seek revenge."
"Revenge shouldn't be left to others."
Li Fei Yu, or Qiu Yong Qin, instantly had tears in his eyes.
