Chapter 232: Siblings Reunited, the Saint Princess of the Bright Moon!

The moment that bright moon surged upward, Ziwu knew in his heart that he likely could not escape.

After all, just as Gu Nianmo had said, he, Ziwu, had only achieved the Heavenly Human realm by taking shortcuts with the help of others; his own strength was not particularly formidable even among Heavenly Human Dao Lords.

Yet Gu Nianmo was a Heavenly Human Dao Lord preparing to ascend to Immortality, and Gu Nianmo even possessed other Opportunities.

This was the reason why Ziwu's Qi Condensation Dharma Image was suppressed by Gu Nianmo in an instant.

The gap between the two was simply too vast, so vast that Ziwu had never intended to fight Gu Nianmo from the start; he had only thought to delay for a moment and find an Opportunity to escape directly.

Even though Ziwu knew the possibility of his escape was slim, he still held a trump card in his hand.

But the appearance of Gu Mingyue, and that surging bright moon illuminating the Great Thousand worlds and sealing space-time, caused Ziwu to nearly discard the last shred of hope in his heart.

"Ziwu, long time no see!"

"And Big Brother..."

Following this faint, soft sigh, while many Human Race powerhouses on the Northern Border battlefield were still suspicious of who this Saint Princess might be.

In the next instant, the Old Celestial Master, the Emperor of Gan, and even those sword immortals from Shushan saw the Saint Princess of whom Ziwu spoke.

The bright moon above the firmament emitted boundless light; this light was not overbearing, appearing only gentle.

As the moonlight spilled down, as strands of moonlight descended, it actually outlined a human figure.

This figure turned from void to solid; initially just a phantom, within three to five moments, this figure transformed into a woman wearing a plain green immortal-flowing dress, lotus-cloud boots on her feet, a white jade belt wrapped around her waist, and an immortal bun, slowly manifesting between Heaven and Earth.

This woman's appearance was like the bright moon in the sky, and also like a goddess of the Moon Palace; when she manifested between Heaven and Earth, Heaven and Earth seemed to rejoice for her.

"This appearance..."

"How is it so like the Junior Martial Sister?"

The sword immortals of Shushan also saw this Saint Princess appear; those disciples from when Gu Jiangming was the Dao Venerable of Shushan felt a surge of doubt and uncertainty in their hearts upon seeing this Saint Princess's appearance.

"Little Sister..."

Between Heaven and Earth, that black-robed imperial Dharma Aspect condensed from Qi still suppressed the dragon-turtle, leaving it unable to move.

But when the master of that Dharma Aspect saw Gu Mingyue truly appear before his eyes, two clear tears inexplicably slid from the corners of Gu Nianmo's eyes for a moment.

It had been too long, truly too long.

Long enough for the vast seas to change into mulberry fields, long enough for mountains to turn into flowing water.

Even though Gu Nianmo had previously sensed that his little sister had broken free, when he truly saw Gu Mingyue appear before him, no one knew how turbulent Gu Nianmo's heart was.

"Big Brother, let us speak of other things later."

"Shall we first resolve the trouble on Ziwu?"

Gu Mingyue's emotions were likewise inexplicably turbulent, but she still remembered Gu Jiangming's entrustment to resolve Ziwu first.

"Wait a moment, Little Sister, just watch as Big Brother quickly disposes of Ziwu!"

Hearing Gu Mingyue's words, Gu Nianmo felt a boundless heroic spirit rise within him for no reason; without seeing him make any move, he merely pointed a finger, and in the next instant, before Ziwu could say anything more, he was forced to reveal his true form.

In a mere three to five breaths, Ziwu, whose aura had shaken Heaven and Earth, not only saw his Dharma Aspect collapse instantly, but he himself was transformed into a massive dragon-turtle.

This was not the end; it was unknown what method Gu Nianmo employed, but the dragon-turtle's body began to shrink rapidly, and in just a few more breaths, Ziwu was transformed into a dragon-turtle only the size of a palm? Such a mysterious sight was seen by only a few; the Old Celestial Master, the Emperor of Gan, and the strongest among the Shushan sword immortals only caught a glimpse of the light and shadow.

But even these few moments of light were enough to make the Old Celestial Master and the others feel inexplicably terrified.

They had already sensed that they were caught in an inconceivable scheme between Heaven and Earth; after all, if they had heard correctly, that Ziwu was a powerful existence who had once protected the Human Race in the ancient era.

It was just unknown why, one day, Ziwu had completely vanished from between Heaven and Earth.

Yet today they finally knew that Ziwu was actually that dragon-turtle-shaped Heavenly Human.

If it were only this, it would not be enough to make these people inexplicably terrified; what terrified them most was that Ziwu, who had attained the realm of Heavenly Human Dao Lord, was turned into the size of a pet by that black-clothed man with a single finger.

Such divine ability, they had never heard of in their lives; such supernatural power made their Dao hearts tremble, leaving them dazed as to whether their lifelong cultivation still had any meaning.

In the end, it was the Old Celestial Master who first regained his senses; Longhu Mountain had a long heritage, and even at the end of the Heavenly Human Era, Longhu Mountain still had a Celestial Master.

Although that Celestial Master had not stepped into the Supreme Realm, he was at least close to the Supreme Realm.

Adding that Longhu Mountain had connections with the Red Lotus Demon Venerable at the end of the Heavenly Human Era, Longhu Mountain actually possessed many ancient secrets.

At least at this moment, as the Old Celestial Master flipped through his memories, he managed to recall the origin of the Saint Princess.

"Saint Princess, please save the Human Race!!!"

Others did not know the origin of the Saint Princess, but since the Old Celestial Master now knew her background, he could not care about anything else and shouted on the Northern Border front, asking Gu Mingyue to cast her gaze and look at this state of the world being corrupted by demons.

"A Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain!"

Heaven and Earth were silent; the Old Celestial Master's voice became the only sound between Heaven and Earth for a moment.

Gu Mingyue and Gu Nianmo, the siblings, both inevitably noticed the Old Celestial Master; with just one glance, the two had already perceived the origin of this Old Celestial Master.

But Gu Mingyue did not act on her own initiative, only placing her gaze upon her Big Brother, Gu Nianmo.

No one could have expected things to develop to this point, but Gu Mingyue knew that her Big Brother was likely testing something, and the demon-spawn Ye Ming was Gu Nianmo's test subject.

"Take him!"

"I have basically verified what I wanted to verify; this demon-spawn is now useless!"

Gu Nianmo quietly transmitted his voice to his little sister; he actually still had plans for this demon-spawn, but with things having developed to this stage, Gu Nianmo no longer wanted to be disturbed by other matters.

He had already sensed that his mother's sharp aura was pressing toward him.

Although Liu Moxuan's aura was only at the Quasi-Supreme Realm at this moment, she was his mother, and Gu Nianmo still felt a bit guilty in his heart.

"Hum..."

Following Gu Nianmo's words, Gu Mingyue did not hesitate; one could see the bright moon above the firmament rotating, and in an instant, the moonlight spilled down and transformed into wheels of moonlight.

As the moon wheels cut through, one could only hear sounds of roaring in this part of Heaven and Earth.

In just a few breaths, the demon-spawn that had almost engulfed the great trend and corrupted the human world was completely transformed into strands of black Qi!
