Chapter 925: Breaking the Boundary

~7 min read 1,391 words

"In the eyes of the world, I am a god." A savage laugh came, and that giant evil ghost took another heavy step forward, then with a 'whoosh', slashed a blade toward Chen Yu.

Chen Yu's body flashed, disappearing on the spot. Immediately after, the evil ghost's form stiffened; a streak of Sword Qi came from behind it, splitting it in two.

The evil ghost let out a roar of unwillingness, then vanished on the spot.

To break through the boundary and emerge, the first step was to find the place where Duan Tianming was hiding. Chen Yu's Divine Sense scattered outward, then he opened his eyes wide, his gaze like torches. He let out a violent shout, the Lichen in his hand pulled back, and he charged forward fiercely.

Then, lifting Lichen, he thrust out with a sword.

*Puff... * Accompanied by a muffled groan, the mist before him vanished, and he saw Duan Tianming staring at Chen Yu with a face full of horror.

And the sword in Chen Yu's hand was currently piercing his chest.

"Forgot to tell you, crooked paths and evil ways can never be brought into the light." Chen Yu smiled slightly, pulled his hand back, and Lichen was withdrawn from Duan Tianming's chest.

The crowd outside the mist was anxious; they could not see the scene inside the mist from the outside, and they could not feel any movement from within.

Just as they were worrying, the mist suddenly disappeared, and the two of them appeared before their eyes.

Chen Yu was seen standing to one side as if nothing had happened, while on the other side, Duan Tianming was kneeling on the ground; his face was deathly pale, his hair was gray, and his face was covered in wrinkles.

Chen Yu had taken his life force with one sword strike. This fellow could no longer maintain his image as a high-level expert, and having already passed the age of a hundred, he was now at the end of his rope and would not live long.

"Crooked mind, you deserve this." Chen Yu coldly tossed out these eight words.

"Sect Master..." All the disciples of the Sword Mansion were incomparably shocked. Their Sect Master had broken through the Primordial Qi Realm; how domineering he had been when he first appeared.

Yet in the blink of an eye, Duan Tianming was prostrate on the ground like a stray dog. What on earth was going on?

"All disciples of the Sword Mansion, sever your own Dantian Qi Sea breath, otherwise, no mercy," Chen Yu said coldly.

"We'll fight you to the death!" Dozens of disciples charged out fiercely, intending to perish together with Chen Yu.

Chen Yu did not waste words; he slashed with the Lichen in his hand, a streak of blood light flashed, and the scene instantly fell silent.

"Abolish your own cultivation, and you may leave on your own. If you dare to resist again, I will wash the Sword Mansion in blood," Chen Yu said coldly.

"If you won't do it, we will help you," Liang Jinsheng stepped forward.

All the Sword Mansion disciples' faces were deathly pale. Some took their own lives, while others stood woodenly on the spot, allowing the Twelve Gates disciples to abolish their cultivation.

He Mingshan was furious. He shouted, "I came to the Sword Mansion at eight years old and regarded the Sword Mansion as my home. Today, the Sword Mansion is no more, so there is no need for me to live on in disgrace. Sect Master, I go first."

He Mingshan held his sword horizontally and took his own life.

Chen Yu watched He Mingshan fall to the ground and shook his head. In the entire Sword Mansion, only He Mingshan could be considered a normal person.

Originally, he had no intention of making things difficult for He Mingshan, but since he chose this path himself, then let it be.

"Alliance Leader Chen, I have something important to tell you. If I know where she is, can you... can you spare me?" Just then, a disciple gathered his courage and walked trembling to Chen Yu.

"She? Yu Sichen?" Chen Yu's expression changed. He grabbed the disciple and shouted, "Where is she?"

"In, in the dungeon on the back mountain. I can take you there, but I beg you to spare me, don't abolish my cultivation," the disciple braced himself.

"Take me there immediately," Chen Yu shouted.

In the dungeon on the back mountain, Chen Yu was stunned the moment he saw Yu Sichen.

Yu Sichen had thumb-thick iron chains piercing through her shoulders, and her entire body was almost nailed to the mountain wall. Seeing her life force was weak, like a lamp about to go out.

"Si Chen." Chen Yu controlled his emotions, walked forward, and called out softly.

"Brother Chen, you're here." Yu Sichen slowly raised her head. She looked at Chen Yu and revealed a faint smile.

"Don't speak yet. I'll take you down. It might hurt a little, bear with it." Chen Yu supported Yu Sichen, his heart heavy with grief.

With a movement of his hand, *ding ding*, he severed the chains.

Then he held Yu Sichen, gritted his teeth, and forcibly pulled the chains out from her collarbones.

Yu Sichen was in unbearable pain; her eyes went black, and she fainted.

Chen Yu laid her on the ground and looked at the wounds on her body. Chen Yu was furious, but fortunately, the mastermind had already been killed by him.

Chen Yu took Golden Sore Medicine, applied it to her, and then took out a Miyuan Pill and fed it to her.

A moment later, Yu Sichen slowly woke up, but she was severely injured and very weak now.

Chen Yu picked her up horizontally and said, "Rest for a while, you'll be better soon."

Yu Sichen nodded slightly, wrapped her arms around Chen Yu's neck, and fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Yu brought her back to his residence. At this time, Wu Fei rushed over: "Mr. Chen, Miss Tang disappeared on the way back."

"What do you mean by disappeared?" Chen Yu was startled.

"She was taken away, or rather, she escaped on her own." Wu Fei sighed and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I didn't watch her well."

"It has nothing to do with you. The people behind her are very powerful; it's easy for them to take her away." Chen Yu shook his head and said, "The Tiance Sword Mansion has been resolved. I'll leave the cleanup to you. I have a report here that records the detailed process; you can just hand it to the Heaven War Pavilion."

"Yes, Mr. Chen." Wu Fei nodded and bowed slightly to Chen Yu.

Just as Wu Fei left, Chi Xiao came to the door. She looked at the sleeping Yu Sichen in surprise: "There is something in this girl's body."

"Ancestor Ghost, an old monster living in the Underworld Yellow Springs. It feeds on human resentment and negative emotions," Chen Yu said. "Now I have to find a way to separate it from Si Chen's heart."

"I'm afraid that won't be easy." Chi Xiao frowned slightly and said, "But in her condition, she needs to cleanse her soul. Look to the west; perhaps there is a way in the Buddhist Sect in the west."

"I have that very intention. And this trip to the west happens to pass by the Snow Region; perhaps I can find something there to help you break through to the Primordial Qi Realm," Chen Yu said.

"You mean the Snow Region Immortal Lotus? I'm afraid that thing is not easy to find." Chi Xiao was slightly stunned.

"Not easy to find doesn't mean it can't be found." Chen Yu shook his head: "I have an intuition that I will encounter it."

"Then thank you. I will go with you." Chi Xiao was a little excited.

"No need. You go back to Jing and accompany him for the last stretch of time. If you leave without saying goodbye like this, he will never be able to get over this hurdle," Chen Yu said.

Chi Xiao's husband was Wu Zhangbo, who was deeply devoted to his wife, but unfortunately, the wife who woke up from being a vegetable was already a different person.
