Chapter 785: Riding the dragon and departing!

~7 min read 1,382 words

The struggle of the Did Chi You Sword was nothing but futile.

Under the power of Xiao Li, this sword was subjected to unprecedented restraint.

Previously, when it was held in the hands of Did Chi You, Did Chi You was still able to launch some counterattacks by wielding it, but now, having lost Did Chi You as its wielder, it was truly difficult for the Did Chi You Sword to launch a counterattack.

Within its blade, although many wandering souls were hidden, possessing extremely powerful strength, when all was said and done, it was merely a sword. In the absence of a materialized sword spirit, a sword could do nothing at all.

Watching the Did Chi You Sword, which was constantly vibrating, struggling, and yet helpless, Su Xuan suddenly thought of Han Fei's sword.

He did not know the origin of the Inverse Scale Sword, but its sword spirit could appear autonomously without the manipulation of a master and hold the sword to face enemies.

However, there were too many unsolved mysteries in this world, and Su Xuan would not go to the bottom of its profoundness just because he thought of the Inverse Scale Sword.

A moment later, the struggle of the Did Chi You Sword had vanished.

This sword no longer vibrated, nor did it release surging demonic energy.

However, Su Xuan could see that the sword's demonic energy had not actually disappeared; it was just that because of Xiao Li's power, it was temporarily no longer overflowing and was sealed within the blade.

After finishing these things, Xiao Li seemed to have consumed too much power, her complexion becoming incomparably pale, but her eyes were becoming increasingly bright.

Su Xuan knew what she meant; he reached out and scooped up the Did Chi You Sword.

Afterwards, his other hand also pinched out numerous hand seals, which landed on the Did Chi You Sword, adding another layer of seal to it.

After dealing with the matter of the Did Chi You Sword, Xiao Li had no more worries.

And because sealing the Did Chi You Sword had consumed the vast majority of her power, and all matters had been entrusted to Su Xuan, she could leave with peace of mind.

But after thinking for a moment, she finally walked towards the people of the Shushan tribe.

Yu Jun and the others also noticed Xiao Li walking towards them.

Earlier, when Xiao Li appeared, activated the dragon soul, and fought Did Chi You together with Su Xuan, Yu Jun had noticed her. He had also heard those words of Did Chi You and knew that this mysterious young girl who called herself Xiao Li was related to the Nine Heavens Profound Maiden.

At this moment, watching Xiao Li walk closer.

Yu Jun's expression was suddenly somewhat agitated, "You..."

Xiao Li seemed to know what he meant; a faint smile appeared at the corners of her mouth, and her voice was soft, "For these two thousand years, your Shi Lan tribe has steadfastly followed the Profound Maiden's orders, guarding the Yuyuan, ensuring that the Yuyuan has never had any incidents. You have worked hard!"

Yu Jun came back to his senses, looking flattered, and quickly said, "No, it is not hard work. My Shi Lan tribe exists precisely because of Lady Profound Maiden. Guarding the Yuyuan is our duty. It is I, this Great Elder of the Shi Lan tribe, who did not perform my duty well, causing the Yuyuan seal to be broken, which subsequently caused Loulan to suffer a catastrophe..."

"If not for the help of Mr. Su, the Sect Master of the Yin-Yang School, my Shi Lan tribe would likely have perished at the hands of Did Chi You in the very first instance!"

Yu Jun did not stint in praising Su Xuan.

Although there had been some grievances between Shushan and the Yin-Yang School hundreds of years ago, that was, after all, the past. In the present world, if not for Su Xuan's help, relying solely on their Shi Lan tribe, they would have been completely unable to deal with Did Chi You, let alone defeat Did Chi You.

Today, in the defeat of Did Chi You, Su Xuan was the one with the greatest merit!

Xiao Li nodded, also agreeing with Yu Jun's words.

She said one more sentence to Yu Jun, "Did Chi You has been re-sealed, and the Yuyuan no longer has any need to continue existing. Your Shi Lan tribe does not need to continue guarding the peak of Shushan; you can try to walk out..."

As these words fell into Yu Jun's ears, Yu Jun's expression was immediately moved.

Although Xiao Li was not the Nine Heavens Profound Maiden, Yu Jun had a natural sense of conviction towards Xiao Li's words.

Once this was said, did it not mean that their Shi Lan tribe had already completed the entrustment of the Profound Maiden from years ago, and completed the task the Profound Maiden had given them?

Thinking of this, Yu Jun's mood was very agitated!

Two thousand years of steadfast guarding, two thousand years of sticking to old ways.

Even though the winds and clouds in the Shu region changed, with dynasties rising and dynasties falling, the Shi Lan tribe had always steadfastly guarded that mountain, silently executing the task the Profound Maiden had given them. Suddenly, one day, a person related to the Profound Maiden told them that they had already completed the task and did not need to guard it anymore.

Yu Jun suddenly wanted to cry.

Although during the time he led the Shi Lan tribe, there was a period where the Yuyuan seal was broken and Did Chi You reappeared in the world, he had ultimately completed the task that generations of Shushan ancestors had entrusted.

0 ········Seeking flowers···· ····

Successfully guarding until the day the task was completed.

From now on, their Shi Lan tribe would no longer be the descendants of sinners.

They had completely cleansed the sins upon their bodies.

Watching the agitated Yu Jun, Xiao Li waited for a long time, and only after Yu Jun gradually calmed down did she continue, "I am about to dissipate. After I dissipate, you can try to cultivate your granddaughter. Her constitution is special; perhaps she can carry the power I have left behind..."

Yu Jun was stunned upon hearing this.

This mysterious existence related to the Profound Maiden actually knew Xiao Yu?

Xiao Li did not pay attention to Yu Jun's astonishment and spoke again, "If one day, after your granddaughter masters the power I have left behind, you can let her get closer to that person. He holds the Yellow Stone Heavenly Book and is the person of destiny in the current world."

0

Yu Jun came back to his senses, understood the meaning in this person's words, and his expression became somewhat strange.

If he was not mistaken, "that person" referred to Su Xuan.

Xiao Yu was only a few years old, while Su Xuan could be Xiao Yu's father.

He did not know how the person before him could say such things.

However, although there were many complaints in his heart, Yu Jun ultimately did not say them to her face.

Xiao Li noticed Yu Jun's expression but did not offer too much explanation.

If asked, for gods, the life of a mortal is no more than a hundred years; even if separated by a few hundred years, to them, the age gap is not considered much.

Following this, Xiao Li talked to Yu Jun about quite a few things in a rambling manner.

Yu Jun kept all of Xiao Li's words in his heart.

Afterwards, Xiao Li glanced at the people around her and did not continue to say anything to them.

She walked directly towards the Pixiu.

As she approached the Pixiu, the Pixiu also seemed to know that the time had come.

Its body released a dazzling golden light.

And then, after Xiao Li arrived on its back, it immediately flapped its wings and flew high.

Flying to mid-air, a loud roaring sound came from its mouth, as if it had communicated with some kind of power in the dark; space suddenly split open, and a portal appeared before it.
