~7 min read 1,272 words

"Little brother, please."

While the Sword-edge King still retained a few vestiges of his sanity.

Ni Gu Si clasped his fists in thanks toward Gu Han flying from afar.

Gu Han nodded, this time not letting Kunpeng act.

With Kunpeng controlling the wind and clouds to restrain the Sword-edge King, Gu Han channeled all his strength into his arms.

The Dawn Dragon Roar Spear burst forth with a golden radiance rivaling the blazing sun.

Under Gu Han's throw, it traced a brilliant arc, piercing the Sword-edge King's chest!

Warm golden light like sunlight shone forth, leaving no place for the Sword-edge King's dark aura to hide.

Zizi!

Like a searing tide of flames scouring filth, the Sword-edge King's body emitted successive bursts of bubbling explosions.

Black bubbles continuously burst all over his body.

The Sword-edge King immediately let out shrill, miserable cries, as if enduring immense pain.

Hearing this heart-rending sound, the countless Sword-edge City warriors below all turned pale.

They had never heard before that the Sword-edge King would fear pain to such an extent!

This wailing lasted about the time it takes to finish a cup of tea, then gradually weakened until the entire Sword-edge City fell silent once more.

The dark evil aura was swept away, and a faint golden radiance reappeared amidst the wind and clouds.

Sensing the lingering life force within the hurricane, Gu Han couldn't help but frown.

"Having lost his immortality, he's still this resistant to a beating?"

He gave Kunpeng a look, and Kunpeng immediately began to gather wind and clouds into fierce wind blades, slicing the Sword-edge King's body.

Although Gu Han's attack power was strong, it was no surprise that a Martial Emperor-level Sword-edge King could withstand it.

But even at its peak, the Sword-edge King would find it no easy task to resist Kunpeng's full-force assault, let alone the current Sword-edge King.

However, just as Kunpeng gathered the wind and clouds, preparing to deliver a thunderous strike to the Sword-edge King.

Suddenly, a pleading voice came from within the wind and clouds.

"Little... little friend, it's me, don't attack!"

Hearing that familiar voice, Gu Han blinked slightly.

Although the Sword-edge King and Ni Gu Si were originally one entity, their auras and voices were completely different.

At this moment, the voice coming from the wind and clouds was clearly Ni Gu Si's.

But although this voice didn't sound as mindlessly irrational as the Sword-edge King's, Gu Han still did not relax his vigilance.

Since they share the same origin, who knows if the Sword-edge King is concealing his true identity just to buy a little more time?

As long as the Sword-edge King regains his immortality, all the efforts of Gu Han and Ni Gu Si will come to nothing!

Gu Han paid no attention to what the Sword-edge King said, merely urging Kunpeng to keep attacking.

Just as the wind, clouds, and thunder swept across the four directions, preparing to deliver the final blow to the Sword-edge King.

A golden light shot forth from the wind and clouds, its target straight at Gu Han!

The golden light's speed was extremely fast; even with Gu Han's current strength, it was hard to dodge!

Seeing this, Kunpeng's eyes shifted slightly, and he hurriedly gathered wind and clouds around Gu Han.

Wind and Cloud Body Shield!

Under Kunpeng's full defense, not even a Martial Emperor could break his Wind and Cloud Body Shield!

Yet to everyone's surprise, that golden light shot to a point before Gu Han and abruptly halted.

It was still about a finger's breadth away from Kunpeng's Wind and Cloud Body Shield.

Gu Han broke out in a cold sweat, then slowly exhaled.

Although he had a substitute grass doll, a talisman that could forcibly preserve a life.

But being in a near-death state, akin to awaiting judgment of life and death, is absolutely unpleasant!

At least he didn't want to experience it!

After catching his breath, Gu Han looked toward the weapon hovering before him.

This was not the Sword-edge King's usual golden spear he often wielded, but the golden halberd Gu Han had recently given to Ni Gu Si.

This golden halberd, compared to when Ni Gu Si previously fought the Sword-edge King, was obviously more dazzling.

There was no sign of any wear whatsoever.

At that moment, Gu Han suddenly realized the current appearance of this golden halberd.

It was exactly the same as the golden halberd wielded by the Sword-edge King when he battled Xiao Wan Di and Bai Ce!

Taking advantage of the wind and clouds no longer converging, the Sword-edge King slipped out and, in a few flashes, appeared before Gu Han.

The Sword-edge King still wore his original golden robes, though it seemed he had changed into a different set.

And his visage was resolute, no longer the feral, hysterical look from before.

Rather, he resembled the wise and martial sovereign Gu Han imagined.

"Little brother, I'm sorry for having met you in my previous form."

The Sword-edge King, or rather Ni Gu Si, extended his hand toward Gu Han and said with a light smile.

"Let's get acquainted anew, the current Sword-edge King, Ni Gu Si!"

Gu Han gave Ni Gu Si a deep look, seeing no flaw in him.

Moreover, he could sense the opponent's formidable aura, a sign that his immortal talent had returned to him.

Gu Han knew that if Ni Gu Si's reason had not returned.

He and Kunpeng would likely find it difficult today to slay the Sword-edge King who had regained his immortality.

Gu Han.

Thinking of this, Gu Han, under the protection of the Wind and Cloud Bodyguard, shook hands and made peace with Ni Gu Si.

A faint smile appeared in Ni Gu Si's solemn visage.

Thanks this time, Gu Xiao-xiong's help; otherwise I would not have regained my sanity until now.

Gu Han waved his hand, speaking calmly,

You risked your life to barely awaken your own sanity, breaking the limits of the undead body; this is certainly not solely my achievement.

Ni Gu Si did not, because of Gu Han's modesty, deny Gu Han's achievement.

He brought Gu Han flying back to Sword Edge City, which had almost been razed to the ground.

Tens of thousands of Sword Edge City warriors looked at Ni Gu Si half-believing, half-doubting, with deep suspicion in their eyes.

Ni Gu Si understood the doubts in everyone's hearts; with a wave of his hand, a fierce aura spread in all directions.

Feeling the powerful aura unique to the Sword Edge King, countless warriors of Sword Edge City were shocked in their hearts.

Several great nobles, seeing this, all dropped to one knee, shouting 'Long live the Sword Edge King!'

Under the leadership of the Sword Edge City nobles, tens of thousands of Sword Edge City warriors knelt and shouted loudly,

Long live the Sword Edge King!

Long live Sword Edge City!

Amid the chorus of shouts like a mountain and a tsunami, Ni Gu Si smiled and raised Gu Han's right hand that he was holding.

Gu Han, long live!

On the faces of all the Sword Edge City warriors present appeared expressions of astonishment.

After all, Gu Han had killed tens of thousands of Sword Edge City warriors.

That His Majesty would be willing to shake hands and make peace with the other side was already beyond their expectations.

What they never dreamed of was that His Majesty would actually shout the other's name and openly proclaim 'Long live!'

For a ruler who considers himself supreme under heaven, this is absolutely a magnanimous breadth of mind!
