Chapter 457: Chapter 259: Greetings, Master

Though shocked, Hai Wujang showed only admiration on the surface. He cupped his fist and said, "Congratulations, Gu King, on subduing the Divine Weapon!"

WHOOSH~

At that moment, Bing Ning had the Frozen Divine Sword shrink down into a miniature blade, which then circled playfully around Gu Zheng.

"It went well."

A smile touched Gu Zheng’s lips. "With the Frozen Divine Sword acquired, next up is the Flame Divine Sword."

"With the Gu King taking action, success is guaranteed," Hai Wujang said flatteringly as he retracted his Sea-Calming Divine Power Staff.

"We’ll see if we succeed after we try," Gu Zheng said, his figure flickering away.

Hai Wujang followed close behind.

SWISH SWISH~

The two of them returned to the Flame Island.

Yue’Er was still chasing and swatting at the little boy with fiery red hair.

Gu Zheng descended and immediately activated his three Domains, enveloping the Flame Divine Sword.

A small sliver of his Life Domain reached out and touched the Divine Weapon.

Hmm?

The little boy, who had been running all over, sensed it instantly. "I’m not playing with you anymore."

With that, the little boy rushed into the Domain and appeared before Gu Zheng.

"Who are you?"

The little boy spoke using a spiritual message, the same way he had before.

"Who I am isn’t important. What’s important is, do you want to be nourished by this power?" Gu Zheng replied in kind, using his own Spirit.

"I do!" the little boy answered without hesitation.

"If you do, then follow me and obey my commands from now on..."

"Fine." The little boy cut Gu Zheng off with a nod. "I’ll listen to you. Just give me more of that power."

"..." A smile touched Gu Zheng’s lips. "First, open your mind. Don’t resist."

"I’m not resisting," the little boy replied bluntly.

"..." Gu Zheng wasted no more time. He released a Nether Heart Slave Seal and sent it straight into the little boy’s Sea of Consciousness.

A Divine Weapon Spirit also possesses a soul core.

Once the Nether Heart Slave Seal was implanted in the core, the sealing process would be complete.

Throughout the entire process, the little boy truly offered no resistance, allowing Gu Zheng to do as he pleased.

When the sealing was complete, the little boy—just like Bing Ning before him—found the indifference in his calm eyes replaced with a lively spark.

"Master!"

The little boy stepped closer to Gu Zheng, calling out affectionately.

"From this day on, your name is Xiaoyan," Gu Zheng transmitted via his thoughts.

"Yes, Master." Xiaoyan nodded obediently.

"Haha, I’m the older sister!" Yue’Er, who had been waiting nearby, jumped out with her hands on her hips and urged, "Quick, call me Older Sister!"

"Older Sister," Xiaoyan said.

"Hahaha!" Yue’Er roared with laughter, pleased with herself.

"I’m the real older sister." Bing Ning stepped out from behind Gu Zheng, a cunning glint in her lively eyes. "All three of you have to call me Older Sister."

Yue’Er was speechless. "..."

"Three?" Xiaoyan asked, confused. "Aren’t there only two of us?"

"There’s also Xiaolu."

With a thought from Gu Zheng, the miniaturized Heaven-piercing Halberd emerged from his body, and Xiaolu’s form materialized.

"Whoa~" Xiaoyan’s jaw dropped. "So am I an older brother or a younger brother?"

"You’re the fourth brother—the youngest!" Yue’Er wrinkled her nose and said grudgingly. "I’m the second sister, and he is the third brother!"

Yue’Er pointed at Xiaolu.

"Hehe~" Xiaolu grinned. "I think I’m bigger than you. That makes me the second brother, and you the third sister."

"No! I’m the second sister, and you’re the third brother!" Yue’Er retorted indignantly.

"But I’m taller and bigger than you," Xiaolu said, gloating.

"He is, you know," Xiaoyan chimed in with a nod.

Bing Ning found this amusing but didn’t intervene, content to watch Yue’Er and Xiaolu bicker.

Gu Zheng also held his tongue, letting them have their fun.

But just then...

BOOM!

A radiant fist of energy suddenly tore through space, lunging at Gu Zheng from behind and to his right.

"Courting death!"

Gu Zheng recalled Xiaolu. At the same time, with a thought from Bing Ning, the Frozen Divine Sword enlarged and shot forward in a direct thrust.

SWISH!

The Sword Qi, formed from pure Ice Power, met the radiant fist. In an instant, it shredded the Fist Force and reduced it to nothing.

"It’s Dugu Batian!"

Hai Wujang’s voice rang out from outside the Domain.

"Gu King, watch out! That son of a bitch Dugu Batian is back to cause trouble!"

VMMM~!

A surge of Divine Weapon Power erupted as Hai Wujang swung his Sea-Calming Divine Power Staff, churning space itself as he swept it across the surface of the sea.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Not far away, high above the sea, Dugu Batian’s towering, muscular figure flickered rapidly. He threw punch after punch, shattering space, detonating the seawater, and raising colossal tidal waves.

His primary target, however, was not Hai Wujang, but the Flame Divine Sword that was still under the cover of the Domain.

His goal was simple: to wreak havoc and prevent Gu Zheng from successfully subduing the Divine Weapon.

Little did he know, he was too late.

Gu Zheng had already dealt with both the Frozen Divine Sword and the Flame Divine Sword, having completed their Slave Seals.

Dugu Batian was accustomed to tyranny; if he couldn’t have something, no one else could either.

Protected by his Tyrant Armor, and with his King’s Body at the third stage, Gu Zheng was completely unafraid.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM~

Punch after punch flew with incredible speed. Wherever the radiant fists passed, space shattered, leaving behind clearly visible tunnels in the void.

But...

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

Bing Ning controlled the Frozen Divine Sword, Xiaoyan controlled the Flame Divine Sword, and Yue’Er controlled the Crimson Moon Heaven-Covering Blade.

With the exception of Xiaolu, whom Gu Zheng had intentionally kept inside his body, the other three Divine Weapons charged out of the Domain in unison to intercept Dugu Batian.

In an instant, Frozen Sword Qi, Flame Sword Qi, and Blazing Sword Qi all pierced through the void simultaneously, shattering the radiant fists one by one.

BOOM! RUMBLE! KRA-KOOOM!

Space shattered and reformed, sending out ripples that rolled unceasingly like boiling water.

Above the Flame Island, deafening explosions shook the heavens. Terrifying waves of energy swept in all directions, churning the sea for several miles around into a chaos of whirlpools. Countless tons of seawater either vaporized instantly or were blasted sky-high.

For dozens of miles in every direction, not a single cloud remained intact; all were torn to shreds and scattered.

All aquatic life within that range was instantly pulverized and torn to pieces in a tragic, bloody massacre that stained vast stretches of the ocean red.

"How is this possible?!"

Amidst the chaotic, overflowing Powerful Qi and raw energy, a stunned voice echoed across the sky and sea.

On Dugu Batian’s imperious face, his eyes were now wide, his pupils rapidly dilating and contracting. His gaze was filled with utter disbelief.
