Chapter 920

"Damn it! I never thought I'd die at the hands of this brat before fulfilling my grand ambitions."

Liu Sheng Danma Shou sighed inwardly, knowing this move was utterly unavoidable.

"No, don't…."

Liu Sheng Yuki watched Duan Tianya charge toward Liu Sheng Danma Shou, heart shattered with grief.

With a cry of despair, she suddenly made a resolute decision and activated the Liu Sheng family's Phantom Illusion Technique.

Her entire body turned into a lingering afterimage, intercepting Duan Tianya's blade before it could strike Liu Sheng Danma Shou.

Duan Tianya had only recently trained in the Phantom Sword Art, and his cultivation was still insufficient.

This strike had been his full force—he could not possibly retract it.

The slash cut directly through Liu Sheng Yuki.

This was Duan Tianya's ultimate killing technique, showing no mercy whatsoever.

Upon impact, countless true qi erupted from his palm, flooding into Liu Sheng Yuki's body.

In an instant, she was left with seven or eight of her Eight Extraordinary Meridians severed.

Liu Sheng Yuki's life force plummeted to its lowest ebb.

When he finally realized he had killed the one he loved—Liu Sheng Yuki—

Duan Tianya's face turned ashen, and he asked,

"Why did you block me?"

He simply could not understand why Liu Sheng Yuki had thrown herself in front of his blade.

"He is still my father."

As her life force faded, Liu Sheng Yuki gave a bitter, sad smile and comforted Duan Tianya,

"Tianya, I don't blame you. Leave You Dongying—return to the Central Plains!"

As Liu Sheng Danma Shou lay helpless and Duan Tianya stood frozen,

Liu Sheng Yuki suddenly extended her palm, gathering her last reserves of true qi, and hurled Duan Tianya far away,

"Go! Never return to You Dongying… and never think of me again…"

Watching Duan Tianya vanish into the distance, Liu Sheng Yuki closed her eyes in bitter sorrow.

"No…"

Duan Tianya could never have imagined he would kill the one he loved with his own hands.

Even as he was cast away by Liu Sheng Yuki, seeing her close her eyes, he let out a agonized roar.

Then, without regard for his own safety, he charged back toward Liu Sheng Yuki.

"Foolish woman!"

Liu Sheng Yuki's action took General Chilaowen completely by surprise.

By the time General Chilaowen reacted, Liu Sheng Yuki's life was already gone.

Though General Chilaowen was a Heavenly Being Realm master, he was no true immortal.

He had no spiritual pills on him—there was nothing he could do to save Liu Sheng Yuki.

Watching Liu Sheng Yuki caught between Liu Sheng Danma Shou and Duan Tianya, slain by Duan Tianya's blade,

General Chilaowen could only mutter a soft exclamation—he could do nothing else.

He couldn't help but think: if only that day he hadn't fled the Great Yuan capital, but instead confronted Tie Muzhen—

Even if Temür had once shared affection with him, he too would have thrown himself before my fist, just as Liu Sheng Yuki did, to save Tie Muzhen!

Ah!

All of this is karmic retribution!

As he dwelled deeper on it, the pain nearly drove General Chilaowen mad,

when he happened to see Duan Tianya, reckless and desperate, rushing toward Liu Sheng Yuki's corpse, intending to take it away.

"Tie Muzhen, you won't take my beloved away!"

In that moment, General Chilaowen mistook Duan Tianya for Tie Muzhen—and Liu Sheng Yuki for Temür.

He abandoned his suppression of Liu Sheng Danma Shou and, like a mad demon, lunged at Duan Tianya.

Duan Tianya already harbored resentment toward General Chilaowen—he had, after all, openly tried to steal his woman.

Without General Chilaowen, Duan Tianya would have been cut in half by Guihai Yidao long ago.

But now, seeing General Chilaowen attack him and refusing to let him take Liu Sheng Yuki's corpse,

he could no longer hold back—he drew his Japanese sword and clashed with General Chilaowen.

Duan Tianya's cultivation had barely broken through into the Heavenly Being Realm.

Compared to General Chilaowen, he was incomparably inferior.

In his frenzy, General Chilaowen used only two moves of the Dog-Fist Technique and shattered Duan Tianya's Japanese sword.

Several punches struck his chest and abdomen, sending him flying through the air into a nearby snow-capped mountain.

"Temür, no one can ever separate us now."

After flinging Duan Tianya away, General Chilaowen didn't bother checking his condition—he went straight to Liu Sheng Yuki's corpse.

He knelt down, lifted her body into his arms, and spoke tenderly.

719 What is going on?

Liu Sheng Danma Shou saw Duan Tianya struck by only two blows and flung away by this madman from the Central Plains.

Combined with his own complete subjugation moments ago, he finally understood.

This madman from the Central Plains was a force he could never hope to challenge.

Now he watched General Chilaowen, in his madness, cradle his daughter's corpse.

Ryugen Danma Shou didn't even dare to draw a breath, holding his previous posture without moving a muscle.

In his heart he kept wondering, why did the names Tie Muzhen and Timur sound so familiar?

And besides, no matter how he listened, those two names didn't sound like Central Plains names, did they?

Just what was the origin of this Central Plains madman whose cultivation was unfathomably deep?

General Chilaowen naturally had no idea that in Ryugen Danma Shou's heart, he had already been reduced to a madman.

Even if he had known, at this moment he had fallen into a demonic stupor, and probably wouldn't care in the slightest.

He was treating the corpse in his arms as Timur.

General Chilaowen couldn't help but let tears and snot stream down his face, the very picture of heartbreak and despair.

After crying for a long time, he hugged Ryugen Yukihime and stumbled off into the distance.

Ryugen Danma Shou couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, only hoping this madman would leave quickly so he could go see how Duan Tianya was doing.

Just then, a sudden heaven-shaking roar erupted from a distant snow mountain.

Snow flew up in all directions, and a figure covered in blood leapt straight in front of General Chilaowen.

"Duan Tianya... how is it that this kid, wounded like this, still won't die?"

Although Duan Tianya was covered in blood, Ryugen Danma Shou still made out who he was.

Only after recognizing him did he find it all the more bizarre.

The force of those two punches was truly extraordinary.

By now nearly half of Duan Tianya's meridians were severed.

His true qi had also completely dispersed.

But for some unknown reason, Duan Tianya could still move like this, and even dared to come sword in hand before the Central Plains madman.

Just what had happened?

Ryugen Danma Shou felt that everything today was getting stranger and stranger, and he didn't dare make the slightest move.

"Put Yukihime down."

Duan Tianya waved the broken blade in his hand, pointing it at General Chilaowen.

As he spoke, a sweet taste rose in his throat and he spat out another mouthful of black blood.

Mixed within the black blood were bits of flesh.

Clearly those two punches from General Chilaowen had already damaged Duan Tianya's internal organs; he didn't know why Duan Tianya hadn't died and could still appear before General Chilaowen.

By now General Chilaowen was like a man possessed, completely unable to hear Duan Tianya's words.

He just stood there in a daze, clutching Ryugen Yukihime's corpse, ignoring Duan Tianya's obstruction, and continued walking in his direction.

"Good! Since you're asking for death, I'll grant it to you!"
