Chapter 335: Powerful! Encounter! Agreement! Separation!

Chapter 335: Powerful! Encounter! Agreement! Separation!

"Looking for a beating!"

With that furious cry, a dazzling green light erupted from Tianyu and Jiuxiao.

In an instant, the desolate Yuzhi seemed to come to life with boundless vitality.

Vibrant flowers, emerald willows, and a sinuous river that stretched across the heavens.

The towering willows rooted in the void, their branches like dragons transforming into countless shackles that bound their targets.

The vibrant flowers bloomed everywhere, creating an illusory world of such beauty that it left one dazed.

The river that spanned the heavens churned with towering waves, each drop of water as heavy as a mountain, piercing through the void.

This scene, beautiful as a painting, carried an overwhelming aura of destruction, causing Tianyu and Jiuxiao's faces to pale instantly.

"Heavenly Punishment!"

"Divine Defense!"

Tianyu and Jiuxiao were enveloped in a brilliant light, with a vast celestial barrier descending to shield them.

But the next moment—

Boom!

The river surged, and the barrier, fortified by their combined efforts, exploded.

The flowers bloomed, their fragrant scent shaking the soul.

The willow branches twisted, transforming the world into a prison with no place to hide.

In a mere moment, Tianyu and Jiuxiao were pushed back, their forms disheveled.

This scene left everyone from the Myriad Clans with their mouths agape, their faces filled with shock.

These were the Heavenly Clan and Divine Clan, two of the top ten clans in the Myriad Clans.

And Tianyu and Jiuxiao were prodigies of unmatched strength, dominating their generation.

Yet, even these formidable figures were forced to retreat in a single move.

No one could fathom the impact of this scene on the Myriad Clans.

"It's that Elven girl."

At this moment, Kasa and the Heavenly Prodigy of the Three-Eyed Clan recognized the angry-faced girl approaching.

Their faces showed fear, as if recalling something terrifying.

"Do you know her?"

Ye Tong and the other late-arriving experts asked, their faces pale.

"She's a cultivator from the Continent, the current Elven Sovereign!"

Kasa said, his eyes filled with dread: "Before the Emperor's Path opened, that Elven girl came to Yuzhi."

"At the time, we were still setting up the array. The Elven girl, somehow getting the news, came directly."

"She—"

"She shattered our killing array with a single strike, and hundreds of Heavenly Prodigies were beaten by her before she left."

The experts of the Myriad Clans all felt their eyes twitch.

To tear through a killing array with Divine Law Realm cultivation?

And to single-handedly thrash hundreds of Heavenly Prodigies from the Myriad Clans?

"The Continent. Where do they get so many powerful people?"

Someone from the Myriad Clans muttered, "Is their strength really constrained by their realm?"

No one spoke, all faces somber.

The prodigies of the Myriad Clans were present today.

Compared to Su Changqing, who was the stronger, no one knew.

But this Elven girl—

She was clearly far stronger than Tianyu and Jiuxiao.

"Who is she! So powerful!"

Even the cultivators from the Continent, seeing Tianyu and Jiuxiao being thrashed, could not hide their shock.

Little Peng King's sharp eyes were filled with fear, "She's at the Divine Law Realm, yet she has a natural domain."

"Not only is her physical body formidable, but her mana seems endless, and the spells she casts contain the Law of the Dao. This—"

"When did the Continent have such a terrifying existence?"

Li Bufan swallowed, muttering, "Is this really the Divine Law Realm?"

"Compared to Su Changqing, she might not be far behind."

Chu Xi, as an Imperial Body, widened her eyes, "She seems even stronger than Changqing."

Everyone present was stunned.

In their understanding, Su Changqing was already so strong that it was disheartening.

But this suddenly appearing girl was equally terrifying.

Her attacks seemed to bring the world to life, with flowers blooming with each step, dazzling and filled with boundless killing intent.

Just watching from the side, they were drenched in cold sweat.

The relentless, pervasive attacks made their scalps tingle.

Yet, as everyone was shocked by the girl's strength, Su Changqing's calm expression suddenly brightened.

Looking at the woman in red, her face flushed with anger, Su Changqing couldn't help but smile.

He didn't move, just watching the woman standing up for him, the warmth and smile in his eyes unmistakable.

"Looks like she's not any weaker than you."

Seeing Su Changqing's sudden radiance, Miao Feng chuckled.

The others didn't recognize the newcomer, but she had met her before.

The newcomer was none other than Hua Buyu, the current Elven Sovereign, who had been transformed and enlightened by Changqing when she mistakenly entered the Elven Realm.

"I didn't expect Bu Yu's strength to be so formidable."

Su Changqing's face was radiant, "It seems she has been living well in Yuzhi and hasn't suffered any setbacks."

Miao Feng's lips twitched, glancing at the beleaguered Tianyu and Jiuxiao.

Setbacks?

Others might suffer setbacks.

In the first stage of the Emperor's Path, Hua Buyu was practically invincible.

Who dared to provoke her?

"Little Elf, are you courting death!"

Suddenly, a massive, illusory face appeared in the sky, roaring in anger.

Boom!

It seemed like a Celestial Wrath spread, countless spiritual energies condensing from the void into a mountain of immense weight.

The moment the mountain appeared, the surrounding void began to crack, its terrifying power threatening to crush everything.

Hua Buyu, sensing the impending danger, raised her beautiful eyes.

But before she could act, a cold snort echoed from the sky!

"Scram!"

Su Changqing, who had remained calm despite being targeted by many experts of the Myriad Clans, suddenly furrowed his brows.

He extended his right hand, gripping the void with immense force. Countless mystical runes intertwined, forming the perfect Heaven-Cleaving Axe in his hand.

"Slash!"

Without a word, Su Changqing stomped his foot, the void cracking as he instantly appeared before the mountain.

Holding the axe with both hands, he swung it down with all his might from the sky.

Boom!

A blinding light erupted, the towering mountain shattering into two in an instant.

The axe's momentum continued, slicing through the sky and bisecting the massive face at the brow.

This scene left the experts of the Myriad Clans trembling with shock.

Digu, the legendary figure of the Myriad Clans, nearly deified, had been cut down before their eyes.

Although it was not Digu's true body but a divine consciousness, the impact was immense.

Everyone understood that with the emergence of the human race, led by the Elven and human prodigies, no one could stand in their way today.

Unless Digu himself came.

"Very well."

As the illusory face dissipated, it cast a deep glance at Su Changqing.

"Today's battle is not over. I will wait for you on the Emperor's Path."

With that, the face vanished like a gentle breeze.

Su Changqing, holding the axe, gazed at the sky, his expression calm, showing no concern for Digu's words.

"Don't even think about it. Even if the true self of the Ancient Emperor were here, he wouldn't dare to lay a hand on Hua Buyu!"

Seeing the Ancient Emperor's divine consciousness destroyed in one strike, Tianyu and Jiuxiao had no more heart to fight. They quickly retreated.

Su Changqing, holding his axe in one hand, slowly approached Hua Buyu. He looked at the two and said, "Do you still want to fight?"

Jiuxiao and Tianyu glanced at Hua Buyu and Su Changqing standing side by side, their hearts trembling. Each of them alone was a formidable opponent, and now together, they were unstoppable.

"Let's see the Emperor's Path!"

The two took a deep look at Hua Buyu and Su Changqing before turning and leaving.

The myriad clans' heavenly prodigies, who had been on edge, now breathed a sigh of relief and quietly retreated.

What was supposed to be a demonstration of force against the Human Race ended with the myriad clans retreating in a panic.

...

After the myriad clans retreated, Su Changqing slowly reined in his aura. When he turned around, he saw the red-clad girl staring at him intently.

Hua Buyu still looked as she did when they first met—her face, unadorned yet exquisite, beautiful like a painting.

Her eyes, which curved like crescent moons when she smiled, remained clear and pure.

"It's been a long time."

Su Changqing, rarely losing his composure, smiled after a moment.

"It's been a long time."

Hua Buyu's face lit up with a radiant smile, her eyes forming crescent moons. She was still as lively and cheerful as ever.

Despite not seeing each other for nearly a year, there was no distance between them. They had endless stories to share and feelings to express.

For a moment, they forgot about everyone else around them, and their laughter echoed through the sky.

...

From a distance, Chu Xi watched the two chatting and laughing, her eyes widening.

"Those two..."

Li Bufan's mouth dropped open. "No way, right?"

Little Peng King also wore a rare look of curiosity, his interest piqued.

"Hua Buyu, the Elven Sovereign of this generation, as you can see."

"She is also Su Changqing's beloved, a match made in heaven."

Miao Feng explained.

Hearing this, the others' expressions became a mix of surprise and admiration.

No one had expected Su Changqing to have such a beautiful and capable companion.

Su Changqing's combat prowess was already terrifying, but who would have thought...

His wife was even more formidable!

She single-handedly suppressed two prodigies of the myriad clans, without breaking a sweat.

Su Changqing, of course, had a track record that left everyone in awe.

If these two were to join forces, they would be nearly invincible!

"Golden Boy and Jade Girl, a perfect match."

Li Bufan looked at the two in the distance and sighed, "I used to wonder what kind of woman could match Su Changqing, this supreme prodigy."

"Now, seeing this Elven Sovereign, I feel no one could be more suitable."

Hua Buyu, in terms of background, cultivation, talent, and even combat strength, was on par with Su Changqing.

And her beauty...

Li Bufan had seen countless beautiful women in his life, but none could compare to Hua Buyu.

Her exquisite beauty aside, her unique aura was captivating. Her smile and laughter were cheerful and lively, while her frown and contemplation exuded the solemnity and dignity of a queen.

Most importantly, the natural aura of the elves, which made everything around her feel harmonious, drew people to her.

These three unique qualities combined to create a truly extraordinary Elven Sovereign.

The few present looked at the two sitting in the void. Such a woman would overshadow any man, yet beside Su Changqing, she was perfectly harmonious.

Su Changqing's gentle and calm demeanor seemed to encompass everything. Even Hua Buyu's unique aura could not overshadow his light.

One laughed and chatted, the other listened and watched.

Even the fierce wind that swept past them paused, as if afraid to disturb the warm atmosphere.

"Changqing, now that you're here at the Emperor's Path, you won't leave again, right?"

Hua Buyu looked into the distance, her eyes filled with anticipation and excitement. "Let's go through the Imperial Gate together, defeat those vile fiends, and explore the unknown realms. We'll reach the end of the Emperor's Path together. Wow, just thinking about it makes me so excited!"

When Hua Buyu first came to Yuzhi, the world seemed desolate. But strangely, when Su Changqing stepped into this land, even a barren rock seemed more beautiful than the flowers in the elven realm. The desolate world was filled with unknown challenges, waiting for them to explore.

Hearing Hua Buyu's enthusiastic vision of the future and the excitement in her eyes, Su Changqing almost gave in. But he knew he had unfinished business.

"..."

Su Changqing spoke softly, hesitating.

Hua Buyu's radiant smile froze, and she spoke with a hint of hurt, "I've waited for you for a year, and you're still going to leave, right?"

Su Changqing sighed inwardly and gently smoothed her furrowed brow.

"The great era is upon us, and the final battle is near. We both have many responsibilities to shoulder."

"Wait for me one more year. I'll come to the Emperor's Path to find you, okay?"

Hua Buyu looked at Su Changqing, the joy of their reunion instantly overshadowed by the pain of another separation. Her eyes misted over. "Can't you stay?"

Su Changqing remained silent.

"Fine, then I'll go with you."

Before she could finish her sentence, He Bo and Aunt Liu appeared in the distance.

Hua Buyu was speechless, her words dying in her throat.

Indeed, as Su Changqing said, the great era was upon them, and the final battle was near. They both had responsibilities they couldn't shirk.

Su Changqing couldn't leave, and neither could she.

Two people who longed to be together were forced to return to their separate paths, moving forward.

"If love endures, why should it be confined to daily togetherness?"

Su Changqing smiled and said, "Give us some time, and we'll meet at the peak."

"Then, any obstacle will be shattered by us!"

Hua Buyu nodded firmly, her eyes brimming with tears but her smile radiant. "I'll wait for you at the end."

"You better come, or else..."

Su Changqing interrupted her firmly, "There is no 'or else.' I will come!"

"Hmph, I don't believe you."

Hua Buyu's tone changed, her eyes twinkling as she pulled Su Changqing's hand and ran off, "I finally waited for you, so you have to spend more time with me."

Her laughter rang out like silver bells.

Su Changqing looked at the side profile of the red-clad girl, smiling radiantly in the wind, and couldn't help but smile too.

For a moment, he put everything aside.

He forgot about the threat of the desolate era, the emergence of the fiends, and his unknown identity.

It felt like he was back in Qing Shan Village, young and free, riding the wind with a light heart.

"Let me linger a little longer."
