Chapter 376: Past Events

Wait until I become the Sword Edge King.

I will lead the brave and unmatched warriors of Sword Edge City to conquer a vast territory.

All the citizens of Sword Edge City can live in peace and prosperity!

I won't be like you, a coward, who would personally strangle his own infant son to avoid the arrival of a divine edict.

This is the Sword Edge Heir's response to his father, the previous Sword Edge King.

Ask yourself honestly, have you accomplished everything you said you would?

Faced with Ni Gu's questioning, the Sword Edge King was momentarily unable to answer.

After ascending, he indeed led Sword Edge City's warriors to conquer vast territories.

However, the people of Sword Edge City have never been able to live in peace and prosperity.

First, the warriors of Sword Edge City long for the battlefield and are unwilling to live a life of men farming and women weaving.

Second, he wants to establish a great undertaking and is unwilling to halt his expansion.

If it were only that, it would be fine.

But at some point, he became tainted with a foul aura and began to go mad.

Not only on the battlefield did he charge forward fearlessly, oblivious to pain, occasionally unable to distinguish friend from foe.

Even within Sword Edge City, he could not always maintain his sanity!

Under the pretense of occasionally selecting his personal guards, it was actually to select blood worms for him!

Only by drinking the fresh blood of strong warriors can he regain his composure.

As the amount of warrior blood he drinks increases, the threshold naturally rises as well.

Until now, ordinary elite warriors can no longer satisfy his needs.

Those selected personal guards ultimately all became his food!

You, are you still a qualified Sword Edge King?

Ni Gu's question rang in his ears, and the remaining sanity in the Sword Edge King's eyes was once again overwhelmed by the desire for slaughter,

It's all your fault; if you hadn't left me, how could I have ended up in this situation?

The Sword Edge King growled angrily,

If we reunite, I can remain clear-minded at all times and become a great, wise Sword Edge King!

Ni Gu let out a self-mocking chuckle,

Do you really think it's that simple?

My strength is less than half of yours; relying solely on this bit of reason, can it really keep you clear-minded at all times?

At least equal strength is needed for the Sword Edge King to maintain his sanity.

But the Sword Edge King still had no mood to listen to Ni Gu's words.

No matter what you say, today's outcome cannot be changed!

Saying this, the Sword Edge King reached out to choke Ni Gu's throat.

Attempting to capture him and reunite with himself.

However, at that moment, Ni Gu's golden halberd, which had previously been knocked away, reappeared in his hand.

With a hiss, it pierced the Sword Edge King's body.

At the same time, surging waves came rushing from afar.

The tsunami's heavenly roar struck the Sword Edge King, crushing his organs almost to powder!

However, the Sword Edge King's mouth curled up, revealing a mocking smile,

Do you think this can kill me?

You are a part that split from me; you should know my abilities.

Back then, when he just came of age, he was no match for the previous Sword Edge King.

If not for this undying ability, he would not have been abandoned by the Nether River, nor would he have defeated the previous Sword Edge King!

Becoming the undisputed ruler of Sword Edge City!

Ni Gu, as a part of reason separated from the Sword Edge King,

It's impossible for him not to know his abilities.

Ni Gu smiled lightly,

We were originally one; I naturally know your abilities, but do you really think immortality means true indestructibility?

Upon hearing this, the Sword Edge King's face showed a hint of astonishment,

What do you mean by that?

Just then, Gu Han cut through the Sword Edge City guards rushing in from outside and had already returned to the palace.

In the next moment, he witnessed an unbelievable scene.

Ni Gu actually tore open his own chest, pulling out a bloody heart from his bosom!

The Sword Edge King opposite him, upon seeing this, suddenly turned pale with fear.

No, you Fellow, are you trying to get yourself killed?

He couldn't believe how this Fellow Ni Gu could be so desperate!

Ni Gu's mouth curled up, the crimson blood at his lips making him look even more ruthless,

Just now, didn't you say you wanted us to become one?

If so, isn't what I'm doing fulfilling your wish?

A flicker of fear appeared in the Sword Edge King's eyes, but it quickly turned fierce,

Although what you do will indeed weaken me, do you really think that after breaking my undying body, someone could kill me?

You should know, my immortal body can recover within the time it takes to burn an incense stick!

During that incense-stick time, my guards protect me; who could kill me?

Seeing the Sword Edge King's face almost mad, Ni Gu Si let out a heavy sigh.

He once also made a grand vow, wanting to establish a great undertaking to protect the masses.

Who would have thought that now he has become a coward who wants to rely on the warriors of Sword Edge City to protect himself!

If it were before, perhaps indeed no one could do anything to you.

Ni Gu Si's gaze was calm, as if seeing through everything.

But now, that messenger from the future will be the one who writes a footnote to your life!

Hearing this, Gu Han's steps involuntarily halted.

Do you know I am a person from the future?

His conversation with Ni Gu Si was not extensive, and he himself felt he had revealed no flaw; why would the other know his origin?

Ni Gu Si tightly gripped the Sword Edge King's arm, not letting the Sword Edge King break free, then turned away without looking back and said:

I am the rational avatar of the Sword Edge King; I know all the city-states and people under Sword Edge City's jurisdiction.

Sword Edge City, there is no warrior as strong as you!

Moreover, even outsiders from other city-states, upon seeing the legendary Sword Edge King, not trembling is already outstanding among people.

What's more, assassinating the Sword Edge King?

Ni Gu Si's tone was extremely calm, as if speaking of a trivial matter.

The status of the Sword Edge King in the Chong Yuan world can be seen in a glimpse.

Seeing Gu Han remain silent, Ni Gu Si continued:

If I'm not mistaken, in the original timeline, my attempt to let the Sword Edge King regain sanity should have failed.

You came from the future just to find a way to kill the Sword Edge King, right?

Not the Sword Edge King, but the God of War.

When Gu Han said that, both Ni Gu Si and the Sword Edge King were stunned.

Afterwards, did they actually become Gods of War?
