Chapter 1406 - Assassination



Chapter 1406 - Assassination

But every time he tried to manipulate Su Yi, Su Yi manipulated him right back. This thought left him feeling stifled.

In life, he’d been proud and tyrannical, and he’d fought until the heavens ran red with rivers of blood. Who’d dared to oppose him them? He’d slain all who dared a long time ago!

But now...

Just thinking about his current situation made the sixth incarnation lose all interest in arguing with Su Yi.

He was keenly aware that he was just a Dao Imprint trapped within the Sword of the Nine Hells. He knew he was in an absolutely passive position. What was he supposed to fight with?

Ultimately, his only opportunity would be when Su Yi fused with his Dao Imprint and their hearts fought for dominance!

“When you find an opportune moment, I’ll teach you how to break through. Remember, whatever you do, don’t even think of breaking through until then!” said Su Yi’s sixth incarnation.

The power of his Dao Imprint immediately dispersed, receding from Su Yi’s body.

Su Yi immediately regained control of himself. This guy... really is a bit hard to handle. But there’s endless joy to be found in fighting the heavens, and the same goes with fighting ‘myself.’

A moment later, he furrowed his brow. It was only after regaining control of his body that Su Yi realized just how dire his injuries were.

It wasn’t just that his body was riddled with wounds, either. Even his cultivation base was on the verge of running dry.

“Hm?” A soft exclamation emanated from behind him. Mo Qingchou keenly sensed that mighty, tyrannical power’s departure!

She couldn’t help but say, “Fellow Daoist Su, you’re...”

“Is there a problem?” asked Su Yi.

“There isn’t.” Mo Qingchou shook her head and considerately refrained from asking any further questions.

Everyone had their secrets, and that mysterious, terrifying power was unquestionably one of Su Yi’s!

“Qing Tang and I are leaving,” said Su Yi. “Please return, Miss Mo.”

Mo Qingchou said with concern, “Fellow Daoist, your wounds are severe. Why not take up temporary residence with the Mo Family? It won’t be too late to leave the Flying Immortal Forbidden Zone after you’ve recovered.”

Su Yi shook his head. “No need, but if possible, I’d like to trouble you to send someone to find the furnace I left on the battlefield and deliver it to Mount Clearmoon.”

When Mo Qingchou saw she wouldn’t be able to convince Su Yi, she nodded her agreement. “Got it.”

“Let’s go, Qing Tang.” Su Yi then led his disciple away.

Mo Qingchou watched them disappear from view, then sank into silent contemplation.

Su Yi hadn’t massacred the Hong Family earlier. That seemed a bit out of the ordinary.

Now, despite the obvious severity of his wounds, Su Yi preferred to leave immediately rather than visit the Mo Family. That too seemed fishy.

But in the end, Mo Qingchou couldn’t figure out what was going on, so she just steadied her heart, turned, and left.

......

After the curtains fell on the battle of Mount Luowu, word spread rapidly, shaking the Flying Immortal Forbidden Zone like an earthquake and stirring up a tidal wave of uproar.

“Su Yi is actually that terrifying?”

“Over one hundred Cloud Soaring Transcendents and sixteen immortal avatars of will fought together, but they actually lost!?”

“Just who or what possessed Su Yi’s body?”

This massacre left every last ancient orthodoxy shaken and astonished. One man, alone save for his sword, had entered the Flying Immortal Forbidden Zone and killed until blood formed rivers. Not one of his enemies had survived!

Was it really possible for a Cosmic Enlightenment World King to possess such power?

The factions directly involved, like the Profound Divinity Sword House, Southern Flame Pure Lands, and the Illusory Sword Immortal Tower, were completely dumbstruck. They simply couldn’t accept this result.

All of them had deployed a group of their Cloud Soaring old monsters in the name of defeating Su Yi. They’d even employed some of the killer weapons they’d been keeping in reserve. But now, everything had been destroyed!!

This too came as far too heavy a blow. After all, even in top ancient orthodoxies, Cloud Soaring experts were in limited supply. Yet in today’s battle at Mount Luowu, every participating faction lost more than half of their Cloud Soaring Transcendents. These casualties were enough to shake their very foundations!

The Profound Divinity Sword House’s losses were even more dire, as their leader, Hua Qinghai, had fallen in battle too.

The factions hostile to Su Yi were utterly bereft, desolate, and overcome with misery.

“Fortunately, we didn’t participate in this operation targeting Su Yi,” said an old fogey of the Red City Daoist Sect. When he heard the news, he couldn’t help but celebrate this decision. The thought of what could have been made him break out in cold sweats, and his heart shook.

But then, someone else said bitterly, “But I’m afraid it’ll be hard to earn Fellow Daoist Su’s friendship after this...”

The higher-ups of the Red City Daoist Sect immediately fell silent. Irrepressible regret rose within their hearts.

Not long ago, they’d expressed their willingness to assist Su Yi in locating the Tailor. In exchange, many of their experts had received Su Yi’s aid breaking their curse. Yet, they’d chosen to remain bystanders in the battle at Mount Luowu, as they were unwilling to get involved.

Both logically and emotionally, this decision was perfectly reasonable. After all, they were just working with Su Yi toward both parties’ mutual benefit. It wasn’t like they were in an alliance.

Still, the old monsters knew that it would be far more difficult to get closer to Su Yi after this.

...

It wasn’t just the Red City Daoist Sect. Everyone who’d received Su Yi’s aid, only to remain uninvolved, couldn’t help but regret their decision.

This was the cost of their choice.

In stark contrast, the Mo Family was the most joyful and excited of all!

When Mo Qingchou, Mo Shanyuan and the others returned with word of the battle at Mount Luowu, the entire Mo Family practically boiled over. They felt as if a massive weight had lifted from their shoulders, and they were both gratified and excited.

Standing staunchly by Su Yi’s side had put the entire family under enormous pressure.

All of them knew that standing with Su Yi meant opposing every other revenant beneath the heavens and bearing the resulting dire consequences!

Yet now, Su Yi had emerged victorious, and everything had changed. It was like bliss arising out of the depths of misfortune!

The Mo Family no longer needed to fear reprisal, but that wasn’t all. They’d strengthened their relationship with Su Yi, making them the only winners in the Flying Immortal Forbidden Zone.

“Celestial Red Cloud never showed up...?” Mo Xinglin, the Mo Family’s immortal, couldn’t help but be stunned when he heard this.

And here he’d issued orders that the Mo Family was to stand resolutely by Su Yi’s side because he knew Celestial Red Cloud was backing him!

Celestial Red Cloud was a mysterious existence who’d once been invited to dine in the Central Palace of the Central Immortal Court during the Immortal Peach Banquet!

Yet against all expectations, Celestial Red Cloud never once made an appearance.

“Ancestor, was that terrifying power that appeared on Su Yi perhaps connected to Celestial Red Cloud?” asked Mo Qingchou.

“It’s entirely possible!” Mo Xinglin nodded. “Perhaps that’s why she never made an appearance.”

That seemed like the most logical explanation to him.

A moment later, Mo Xinglin couldn’t help but laugh. “Either way, the result of this battle was a massive blow to the Hong Family and their allies. Furthermore, their enmity with Su Yi is now completely irreconcilable. How can they compete with the Mo Family now? And how can they vie for supremacy in the days to come?”

Mo Qingchou laughed too, then sighed. “This battle really has altered the balance of power. It’ll even affect the trend of the future!”

Today, atop Mount Luowu, one man and one sword had achieved a feat so grand as to alter the course of the future.

It would have been no exaggeration to call this “a feat so glorious as to be spoken of for a hundred generations!”

“But I’m afraid Fellow Daoist Su will soon be in for even greater danger.” Mo Xinglin furrowed his brow. “The immortal revenants among the factions hostile to him cannot possibly just let this go. As soon as they can re-enter the world, they’re sure to seek revenge in a mad frenzy.”

Mo Qingchou was instantly solemn, but then, her starry eyes sparkled. “Ancestor, Fellow Daoist Su is just one step away from the Path of Transcendence. Besides, Celestial Red Cloud stands behind him. Seems to me that he has no need to fear any such attempts at revenge!”

Mo Xinglin couldn’t help but smile in complete agreement. “Right, why didn’t Fellow Daoist Su come back with you?”

Mo Qingchou then recounted what Su Yi had said during his departure.

Mo Xinglin found it quite strange too, but even after mulling it over, he couldn’t come up with any answers. “Fellow Daoist Su’s conduct is truly unfathomable. Very well, never mind that. Just act in accordance with his orders. Deliver his treasures to Mount Clearmoon as soon as possible, and do it personally.”

Mo Qingchou nodded her agreement without even pausing to think.

......

As the Flying Immortal Forbidden Zone was in uproar, Su Yi and Qing Tang flew through wilderness shrouded in fog.

“Qing Tang, let’s rest here for now.”

Su Yi led her to a cave at the foot of a mountain, waved his sleeves, and placed a formation to obscure their presence.

Su Yi then took out a spirit pearl and embedded it in the cavern walls. A gentle glow instantly dispersed the darkness.

Qing Tang was just about to say something when she noticed blood dripping from the corners of Su Yi’s mouth. Despite herself, her heart clenched.

“Master...” She hurriedly approached, worry written all over her beautiful face.

Su Yi wiped the blood from his lips and chuckled. “I’m fine. It’s just a few minor flesh wounds; this isn’t enough to stop me. As soon as I’ve recovered, I’ll bring you out of the Flying Immortal Forbidden Zone.”

He then sat cross-legged, took out a bottle of pills, and started refining them.

Only now did Qing Tang realize just how severe the wounds Su Yi had sustained during his battle were.

No wonder Master didn’t massacre the Hong Family, and no wonder he refused to visit the Hong Family. Who knows what would happen if he let even the slightest trace of weakness slip?

The thought filled Qing Tang’s heart with guilt and sorrow. If Master hadn’t come to save me, how could he have suffered so badly?

The young woman sat to the side, her slender arms wrapped around her knees. She watched as Su Yi sat cross-legged and meditated not far away, her gaze full of tenderness.

Waves of emotion coursed through her heart.

But then, the meditating Su Yi suddenly opened his eyes.

Qing Tang had been watching him in a daze, but when she saw this, she was instantly solemn. “What is it, Master?”

“Someone’s here.” Su Yi rose, grabbed Qing Tang’s arm, and shot out of the cave.

Boom!

The rocks shattered as Su Yi’s forceful aura carved a hole directly through the mountain.

Just as the two of them shot into the air——

A dazzling golden arrow sliced through the sky and slammed into the mountainside, which exploded and collapsed. The surrounding skies caved in with it.

Qing Tang was so startled that she broke out in cold sweats.

If she and her master had been even one step slower, they’d have been buried alive!
