Chapter 815: This Sword Is Its Nemesis
"Wretched beast, stop!"
Along with the voice came a dazzling attack!
"It's Ye Qingran!"
"She's back! She didn't run away!"
When they saw the newcomer, the crowd boiled over; it turned out the Lingyun Team hadn't deceived them, and Ye Qingran hadn't abandoned them!
For some reason, even though she was the same person, they felt Ye Qingran seemed somehow different—though they couldn't pinpoint how, she just seemed more radiant!
The attack, of course, was also unleashed by Ye Qingran, but it did little to Qiongqi; its skin was as hard as iron and covered with thick scales, truly impervious to blades and spears.
"Beauty?"
Qiongqi turned, a strange gleam flashing in its eyes.
"I haven't seen such a beauty in ages!" Qiongqi exclaimed excitedly.
The crowd: "......"
So Qiongqi is not only ferocious but also a lecher!
"Little beauty, after all these years of my life, only Kong Sang Da Di's looks can rival yours!"
Kong Sang Da Di?
"Kong Sang Da Di is a woman?"
From Qiongqi's words, one can tell that the first great emperor spanning the ancients turned out to be a woman!
My whole worldview is overturned!
"Foolish humans! You don't even know Kong Sang Da Di's gender; she is the ancients' foremost beauty!" Qiongqi sneered, even feeling honored.
Kong Sang Da Di is a legend of antiquity; any connection to her is an honor.
Qiongqi, once the top of the Top Ten Ferocious Beasts, had been a great grudge‑bearing creature, but after being reprimanded by Kong Sang Da Di, it became obedient.
That woman, it can't afford to offend!
Not to mention the people of the Floating Life Realm, Ye Qingran was also stunned—Kong Sang Da Di, famed since antiquity, is a woman?
She subconsciously assumed she was male.
After all, the name sounds so manly!
"Beauty, though you are gorgeous, you lack even one ten‑thousandth of Kong Sang Da Di's wisdom."
Qiongqi scoffed.
Ye Qingran: "......"
She was despised by a ferocious beast.
"Qiongqi, one of the Top Ten Ferocious Beasts of antiquity, when did you become so talkative?"
Qiongqi, unruffled, said, "I've been sleeping underground for ages; can I not be bored? Foolish humans, you should be grateful I'm bored, otherwise you'd already be my dinner!"
The crowd, hearing this, felt their fear of Qiongqi lessen from earlier.
This Qiongqi's aura seems a bit off!
"Quick, that woman is over there! Capture her!"
From not far away came a commotion; two factions rushed here, unmistakably members of Zhai Xing Pavilion and Suspended King Hall.
"What happened?"
Ye Wen and Liu Jin, seeing members of their own sect with anxious and angry faces, couldn't help but question in a deep voice.
"Hall Master, that woman smashed the sculpture of our Suspended King Hall!"
"Zhai Xing Pavilion Master, that woman smashed the sculpture of our Zhai Xing Pavilion!"
Only then did everyone realize that Ye Qingran had just left and had done exactly that.
But why would Ye Qingran, all of a sudden, smash someone's sculpture?
"Ye Qingran, you have such nerve!"
Ye Wen and Liu Jin, after hearing, questioned in a deep tone.
"If I weren't bold, could I venture alone to your lair and smash your sculpture?"
Ye Qingran replied dismissively.
However, just now she went to the two major sects and destroyed their sculptures; indeed they contained what she sought!
"Beauty, you're right; you're incompetent yourselves, how can you blame me?"
Qiongqi truly was bored out of its mind.
Ye Qingran glared at it, "This atmosphere is almost gone, the sky is also clear; can you go back now?"
Qiongqi found it amusing, "Why should I go back? I'm not done playing yet! When I'm done, I'll eat you all!"
"Are you sure?"
"Of course I'm sure. Before me, you humans are nothing but ants! Even though my power is far from my peak, I can still easily handle you!"
Those present felt a chill in their hearts. Qiongqi's words were indisputable; as one of the Top Ten Ferocious Beasts, its strength is incomparable to humans!
"Your tone is certainly big!"
Ye Qingran, however, gave a cold smile and slowly pointed the Ruinous King's Sword at it.
Qiongqi, initially disdainful, changed expression upon seeing the sword in Ye Qingran's hand, "How did you get Kong Sang Da Di's Ruinous King's Sword?"
Qiongqi was stunned.
Back then, Kong Sang Da Di used this pitch‑black sword to subdue it, making it unable to lift its head in the ferocious‑beast realm, until even those lofty Divine Beasts were subdued by her, and only then did it feel much better.
Indeed, happiness is a matter of contrast!
"Could this little beauty be the reincarnation of Kong Sang Da Di?" Qiongqi silently speculated.
"That shouldn't be!"
Kong Sang Da Di had already been annihilated in that god-demon war—how could there still be a chance for reincarnation?
This must be just a coincidence!
This sword, is it Kong Sang Da Di's sword?
Ye Qingran's eyes flashed with surprise.
"You think that by wielding Kong Sang Da Di's sword you become her? You don't have the ability to subdue me!"
Qiongqi didn't even deign to look.
Besides Kong Sang Da Di, who in this world would dare think they could subdue the great ferocious beast Qiongqi!
No one can!
"Can't we just try and see?"
Ye Qingran curled her lips.
Although she didn't know why Kong Sang Da Di's Ruinous King's Sword belonged to her, she felt the sword was tailor-made for her, and firmly believed that with this sword she could surely subdue Qiongqi.
Ye Qingran said, drawing the Ruinous King's Sword, uttering a 'go', and the blade shot toward Qiongqi.
On the hilt of the Ruinous King's Sword, where the groove had been empty, a red gem now appeared, emitting a mysterious red light!
That red gem was split into three pieces, each hidden in one of three statues!
The statues on the Jade Autumn Sect's square were accidentally shattered by Ye Wen; as the gems surfaced, the seal loosened, Dead Qi ran rampant, and the ferocious beast Qiongqi broke free of its bonds after ten thousand years to reappear in the world!
Although Ye Qingran didn't understand why the red gem could suppress Dead Qi and Qiongqi, it was enough to see how formidable the gem was.
But why does this gem look somewhat familiar?
This sword looks ordinary, hardly any Mysterious Force, yet to Qiongqi it is unstoppable!
This sword is its bane!
Thump~
The Ruinous King's Sword pierced Qiongqi's brow; compared to Qiongqi's massive, mountain-like body, the sword was tiny enough to be negligible—if not for the continual red light flashing over its body, it would have gone unnoticed!
To put it bluntly, even a single hair on Qiongqi is larger than the Ruinous King's Sword!
Just as everyone thought Ye Qingran's sword was like a mayfly shaking a tree—merely a tickle to Qiongqi—Qiongqi suddenly seemed struck by a tremendous force and toppled backward!
That's the ferocious beast Qiongqi!
How much force would it take to knock it down?
