As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1251
Chapter 1251 The Truth
“Who is it!”
The Asura General was suddenly shocked. In front of Xiao Chen, a figure slowly appeared out of thin air.
It was a youth with a pair of purple pupils and runes on his face. The moonlight clothes he wore also had ancient runes faintly visible.
“I am the soul of the ancient zither …”
The youth waved his sleeves, and another zither sound sounded from the heavens and earth. Instantly, more than a hundred Asura experts retreated. The Asura General was also slightly shocked, and he subconsciously looked at Zhuge Xuance beside him, “Senior Zhuge …”
“Upper Guqin Soul …”
Zhuge Xuance’s gaze narrowed slightly. He was a saint, so he could naturally feel the soul force aura emanating from the youth in front of him. Even he couldn’t see how strong it was.
“Su Ye …”
Xiao Chen was also slightly stunned. At this moment, he could naturally sense that Su Ye’s soul power was extremely strong. It was vaguely stronger than ever before.
Su Ye was Fuxi Zither’s zither soul. It had long since transcended the six reincarnations and was unfettered by life and death. However, 10,000 years ago, for some unknown reason, Fuxi Zither fell into a deep slumber. It was not until 300 years ago, when Su Ye had obtained it for his master, that Su Ye woke up from the zither.
He had been asleep for ten thousand years. When he woke up, it was already a sea of vicissitudes and great changes had taken place in the world.
However, Su Ye seemed to have gotten used to it long ago. He was also extremely indifferent to life and death in the mortal world. Most of the time, he even had an indifferent expression on his face.
As for what had happened ten thousand years ago, he seemed to have lost most of his memories. He could not remember why he had fallen into a deep slumber, nor could he remember what had happened back then.
“Brat, you’re not leaving yet. What are you going to do?”
Su Ye’s voice was cold and indifferent at this moment. It was obvious that he was here to defend against Zhuge Xuance and these Asura experts for him.
“Su Ye, but, you …”
Xiao Chen’s eyebrows narrowed. He knew that Su Ye’s soul power could not be consumed excessively. Now, Su Ye’s soul power was sometimes stronger and sometimes weaker. Although his soul power was stronger than before, it was still different from ten thousand years ago. If it was consumed heavily, it would inevitably …
“If you want to go back and save that little girl, hurry up and leave!” Su Ye waved his sleeve, and a surge of soul power surged out, sending him behind him.
“Su Ye, you … be careful.”
Xiao Chen squeezed his finger and his heart finally flew in the direction of Mirage Sea. Zhuge Xuance saw that he was about to leave and was just about to chase after him when a surge of soul force suddenly surged over. With a “zheng” sound, he was actually stopped.
“What a strong soul …”
Zhuge Xuance couldn’t help but feel his heart tighten. He looked at the ancient zither soul in front of him. He didn’t expect that the zither soul from ten thousand years ago would still be here.
…
Seven days passed. On the seventh day, Xiao Chen finally escaped from the Ownerless Land. At this time, a figure slowly caught up to him from behind. It was Su Ye.
“Su Ye … How are you!” Xiao Chen immediately turned around with a worried expression on his face.
“Brat, I … am fine.”
Su Ye’s soul was obviously very weak, and even his figure was close to nothingness. If he didn’t return to Fuxi Zither to rest, he would probably be in trouble.
Xiao Chen didn’t say much and immediately took Fuxi Zither out, “You go back to the zither first …”
“Kid … wait.”
Su Ye raised his head, his face slightly pale. He looked at him and said, “It’s dangerous to go to the Longtan Tiger’s Cave. Have you thought about it clearly? This time, my soul power has been exhausted. I’m afraid … I can’t help you anymore.”
“Su Ye … it’s fine. I have my own ideas. You go back to the zither first.”
“Alright” Su Ye didn’t say anything else. His figure slowly disappeared and returned to Fuxi Zither. He fell into a deep sleep for the time being.
Xiao Chen looked at the simple carvings on Fuxi Zither and frowned slightly. He still remembered the first time he saw Su Ye, when he was only a teenager.
At that time, he was always alone in Purple Night Peak, and Su Ye became the only person other than his master who could speak.
Most of the time, he would have a feeling that the two of them didn’t only know each other in this life. It was as if they had known each other ten thousand years ago, ten thousand years ago. Therefore, even if they left Xuan Qing, Su Ye chose to stay by his side instead of returning to Ling Yin.
At this moment, Xiao Chen slowly put Fuxi Zither away and looked in the direction of the Four Mirage Sea Alliances. His gaze gradually became sharp.
“I didn’t expect that I would be able to come out of the Asura Sea alive” At this moment, his gaze became abnormally cold. With a movement, his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
…
In the Asura Sea, these days were not peaceful, but in order to avoid causing panic, the Asura King did not announce the Asura’s Heart.
At this moment, in a palace, there was a middle-aged man sitting on the palace hall. That man was tall and sturdy, not angry at all. With just a single glance, he gave off an imposing aura that was invincible, causing one to feel terrified.
This person was none other than Yanyue Wuqing’s father, the Asura King.
“Sir, is there actually a zither soul beside this person? At that time, even Sir was not his opponent?”
At this moment, besides the Asura King, there was also another person in the hall. It was Zhuge Xuance from that day. He nodded lightly and said, “This zither soul is probably not an ordinary zither soul, and the origin of this person is hard to say, but I suspect that he is most likely not someone from the Bone Corrosion Lands …”
“Hmph.”
The Asura King snorted coldly and said, “Are you saying that although this person snatched away the Asura’s Heart that day, before taking away the Asura’s Heart, he used eighty-one strands of Spiritual Energy to stabilize the Asura Formation …”
“That’s right.”
Zhuge Xuance nodded and said, “I don’t know why he has such formidable abilities … But now, with his eighty-one Spiritual Energy supporting him, the Asura Formation won’t have any major problems for the time being.”
“Humph!”
The Asura King snorted coldly and said, “First, you broke through my Asura Mist Hidden Realm, but then you saved more than a hundred thousand Asura clansmen. Then, you took away the Asura Heart, yet you didn’t hesitate to use your own Yuan Qi to stabilize the Asura Formation. This kid … is truly interesting.”
Zhuge Xuance narrowed his eyes and recalled the scene of that day. He nodded and said, “This person is indeed very capable. He can ignore my spatial confinement. If it weren’t for the fact that he had used up a lot of Yuan Qi to stabilize the Asura Formation earlier, most of the people from behind would not have been able to catch up with him.”
The Asura King remained silent. After a long time, he frowned and asked, “Ruthless … How is she now?”
Hearing the guards say that the Asura bloodline in Yanyue Wuqing was somewhat violent that day in the Undying Sea, the Asura King was naturally very worried.
Zhuge Xuance said, “That day, her Asura bloodline was almost violent. Fortunately, that person suppressed it for her.”
“This brat … really has some ability. Hmph, this king wants to see what kind of storm he will cause in the Land of Bone Corrosion with such a person.”
Zhuge Xuance said, “The Land of Bone Corrosion has indeed been quiet for too long …”
…
At this moment, in a pavilion, a woman in red was sitting against the window. A gentle breeze blew the green silk in her ears, but what could not be dissolved was the faint sadness between her eyebrows.
She had something in her hand. It was precisely that time that she went to Merlin Garden to assassinate Xiao Chen. When she left, Xiao Chen gave her the Mirage Sea Immortal Alliance Token.
The scenes of that day, and the scenes of that day in the Undying Sea, were constantly repeated in her mind. It was as if the maple leaves beneath the pavilion were unceasingly cut and messed up.
What kind of person was he …
Yanyue Wuqing took a deep breath. That day, he broke through the Ghost Rock’s Misty Hidden Realm and saved more than a hundred thousand ordinary Asura people. That day, he snatched away the Asura’s Heart. He was clearly in danger, but he didn’t hesitate to use his Essence to stabilize the Asura Array. In the end, he suppressed the violent Asura bloodline for himself …
Is he a good person or a bad person …
‘”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!”
That day, Xiao Chen still remembered every word of Yanyue Wuqing’s words clearly. He was clearly so cold and heartless, but why was he … Forget it, forget it.
…
In the Land of Mirage Sea, Xiao Chen had already covered his tracks. These days, the security of the four alliances in Mirage Sea was obviously much heavier than the day he left. Even in the city, there were people from the four alliances patrolling. It was unknown if they were using them to guard against the Asura or against him.
“Have you heard? This month, in the Four Leagues Temple, the Four Leagues will grant Childe Chu Mirage Sea Liu-Li a place to go to Ancient Immortal Realm …”
“Not only that, I also heard that Childe Chu will marry Shangguan Ruoxue this time. In this way, ASEAN and the Northern Alliance …”
“But then again, Childe Chu’s cultivation is very high. Who among his peers can be his opponent? Didn’t Shangguan Ruoxue lose to him at the Four Alliances Martial Meeting last time?”
“I have a question. Tell me, this Childe Chu and Shangguan Ruoxue got married, but in the end, Childe Chu went to Ancient Immortal Realm. Who knew that when he came back, it would be several hundred years later …”
These days, the streets and alleys were discussing the recent matters. It was no secret that Childe Chu had obtained Mirage Sea Liu-Li and married Shangguan Ruoxue in the Four Leagues Temple at the same time.
“Sir, what do you want to buy?” Suddenly, a black-robed man walked into a weapons shop. The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him.
“Sword.”
“Sir, look, we have all kinds of swords here. Black Iron Heavy Swords, Frost Iron Sharp Swords …”
“A sword capable of killing.”
The atmosphere in the shop seemed to freeze. Even the two waiters who were working at the side were stunned for a moment. They turned their heads around. For some reason, they couldn’t help but shiver when they saw the pair of eyes under the battle robe.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, “Then, Sir, do you want to …”
“As many as you have, as many as you want.”
…
When the black-robed man left, the shopkeeper held the two spirit stones in his hand and shook his head, laughing, “This person is interesting. Buying so many swords in one go, could it be that he is going to massacre the city? Tsk tsk tsk …”
