As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1249
Chapter 1249 Absolute
“Move aside.”
Xiao Chen’s voice was icy cold. Compared to that day in the courtyard, it was clearly more ruthless and resolute.
However, Yanyue Wuqing was not afraid at all. The Asura Blade in his hand was still pointing at him, and his voice was similarly icy cold, “Don’t move.”
“Princess …”
The hundreds of Asura soldiers behind them had also arrived. However, at this moment, they could clearly feel that the terrifying aura on Xiao Chen’s body was no match for them. Even if they fought together, the other party would be able to annihilate them with one palm.
“I repeat, get out of the way.”
Xiao Chen’s gaze was cold and fierce. At this moment, it was as if he had returned to the cold and heartless Lord of Lustless Heaven that no one dared to approach.
As for Yanyue Wuqing, he also raised his saber and said, “I repeat, leave the Heart of the Asura behind …”
The two sides were stuck in a stalemate. The Asura soldiers behind them did not dare to act rashly. The cold wind blew. At this moment, it was so cold that it was bone piercing.
The two of them looked so cold at this moment, but the difference was that Xiao Chen was truly heartless and cold. There was a trace of complexity in Yanyue Wuqing’s eyes, but the saber in her hand was so resolute.
“Move aside!”
Xiao Chen stopped talking to her and rushed forward. A strong wind blew, causing Yanyue Wuqing to continuously retreat. However, the Asura Saber in her hand was still tightly clenched. After her body stabilized, she suddenly stabbed at Xiao Chen.
“Zheng!”
With a sharp sound, Xiao Chen’s two fingers condensed the blade. The way he looked at her now was colder than ever, as if even the surrounding air was going to freeze into ice.
However, Yanyue Wuqing did not show the slightest bit of fear. He looked into his ruthless eyes and said word by word, “Even if I die today, I will never let you take away the Heart of the Asura …”
“Unfortunately, you’re too weak.”
Xiao Chen’s voice was cold and indifferent. As soon as he finished speaking, his profound strength rushed forward. With a “bang”, she was shaken to the point that she kept retreating.
“Princess!”
Many of the Asura guards behind him were shocked, but when they rushed forward, they were blown back by Xiao Chen’s flick of his sleeve.
“Asura’s blood!”
Suddenly, Yanyue Wuqing shouted loudly, and a bloody mist enveloped his entire body. The originally beautiful and charming her, at this moment, her appearance had actually become somewhat terrifying.
A pair of blood-colored wings appeared on her back. Her originally clear eyes turned blood-red, and her snow-flawless arms turned into a pair of blood-red and terrifying Asura claws. In this instant, her strength increased more than tenfold!
“Princess …”
Seeing her use the power of the Asura bloodline to transform into an Asura body, the Asura guards behind her were all shocked. Although the Asura clansmen were able to transform into an Asura body, their strength and speed increased by a lot, but this was extremely exhausting of their bloodline power.
More importantly, if one transformed too many times, no matter how kind a person was, they would become more and more savage and bloodthirsty because of the backlash of the Asura blood. In the end, they would lose all their temperament and would never be able to become human again. Thus, the Asura Kings of previous generations had already ordered that no one should easily become an Asura.
“Did you transform?”
Xiao Chen’s eyes were still cold and indifferent. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly rushed forward. Yanyue Wuqing turned into an Asura, and his strength had already leapt into the Quasi-Saint realm. With a loud “bang”, the two of them collided, causing dust to rise.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The more intense the battle between the two became, the more intense it became. However, even though Yanyue Wuqing had already become an Asura, her current cultivation was still far inferior to Xiao Chen’s.
“Bang!”
With a sharp sound, she was sent flying by Xiao Chen’s palm strike. The Asura guards behind her were all shocked, “Princess!”
“Ah–”
Yanyue Wuqing let out a loud howl and urged the Asura bloodline to flourish. Her claws shone with blood and she suddenly grabbed Xiao Chen. However, even though her strength was already extremely strong, and she could even rip open the stomach of a Quasi-Saint below the Sixth Order with a single grab, she was still unable to injure Xiao Chen. Now, Xiao Chen’s strength could already contend with a Saint.
“Bang!”
“Do you really think I don’t dare to kill you?” Xiao Chen pressed her down with another sharp sound.
Yanyue Wuqing’s eyes were terrifying. He glared at him with hatred and said in a deep voice, “I said that even if I die today, I will still prevent you from taking away the Heart of the Asura …”
Just as she finished speaking, a bloody mist erupted all over her body. The Asura bloodline in her body seemed to be boiling. Her eyes became even redder, and even her snow-white skin on her chest slowly turned scarlet. In the end, even her face was covered in blood-colored lines, almost completely Asura-like.
“Princess … no!”
The Asura guards behind were all shocked. Seeing that the princess’s Asura bloodline was about to go berserk, everyone was shocked. They knew that in the entire Asura race, only the princess’s Asura bloodline was the purest. Once her Asura bloodline went berserk, her strength would instantly break through to the Sage realm. However, in this way, she would lose her temper and never change back …
“Look at me, can I stop you now …”
At this moment, Yanyue Wuqing’s voice became as low as an ancient ferocious beast’s. Xiao Chen frowned. At this moment, he did not hesitate at all. He used the techniques in the Heavenly Book to continuously attack her with more than a dozen strands of profound energy.
The last strand of profound energy should have hit her “weakness”. Xiao Chen seized the opportunity and dissipated the blood mist surrounding her. Then, he added another palm. This palm directly sent her flying and suppressed her violent Asura bloodline.
“Uh …”
Yanyue Wuqing let out a muffled snort and lost her Asura bloodline. Very quickly, she returned to her original beautiful appearance. When everyone in the distance saw that she had returned, they finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Xiao Chen glanced at her and was about to leave without saying anything when Yanyue Wuqing stretched out his hand and said, “Stop!”
He originally thought that Xiao Chen would ignore her, but he didn’t expect that at this moment, the other party really stopped. However, he didn’t turn around and just turned his back on her like that.
Yanyue Wuqing looked at his cold back and said, “Do you know how many people will die? Do you know how many people will die if you take the Heart of Asura away?”
Xiao Chen didn’t say anything. Yanyue Wuqing continued, “For thousands of years, our Asura Race has lived in the Asura Land and never thought of taking Mirage Sea for themselves. It’s them … it’s Spiritual Bloodline Force that they’ve always wanted the Asura …”
“That day in Yunling, I wanted to capture Wang Yunmeng, but I only wanted to blackmail her so that Wang Ting could retreat …”
“So?”
Xiao Chen finally spoke. His tone was surprisingly cold, “What does this have to do with me?”
“You …”
Yanyue Wuqing was stunned and his face became even paler. However, the scene from that day in Merlin Garden appeared in his mind. “Juanjuan Pine, there are ripples underneath. Qingxue Ding, the fishing boat across the river … If this world could be like this painting, there would be no chaos, no disputes …”
“Why? Why” She didn’t understand, she didn’t understand, she didn’t understand why this person in front of her was so cold-blooded and heartless.
‘”There are so many reasons in the world. The strong eat the weak, and the strong survive the weak. Isn’t this the law of heaven and earth? If everyone is like you, you have to find a reason for everything, then tell me, why must there be a distinction between right and wrong in this world, between right and wrong, between right and wrong, and between right and evil!”
“You, you …”
Yanyue Wuqing did not expect that he would actually say such words. Her entire body couldn’t help but tremble and her face turned pale as she said, “Why are you so cold-blooded and heartless … Then what are your so-called right and wrong? Could it be that you are willing to give up the lives of millions of people to fulfill your own selfish desires … How can you be so cruel … How can you be so right and wrong …”
“Cold-blooded and heartless, right and wrong …”
Xiao Chen sneered, “Right, what is right? Wrong, what is wrong? Everyone in the world is right, then what is wrong with her! I, Xiao Chen, am responsible for everything I have done today, so there is no need for others to criticize me!” As soon as he finished speaking, he kicked his feet and immediately unleashed his movement technique, heading into the distance.
