Legend of Dragon Son-in-law

Chapter 2674: Chapter 2674: Cataclysm

"You save me?" The Queen of Nine Provinces took several steps back and shook her head, saying, "No! I don’t believe it. If everyone is destined to die, why can you save me? Are you not going to die?"

She looked warily at Emperor Azure River.

Emperor Azure River never tells lies.

So the apocalypse of this world is indeed coming.

But Emperor Azure River says he can save her?

How could he save her?

Even though everyone knows that Emperor Azure River might not lie.

He is a Saint!

But can a Saint really act to kill themselves?

Or even annihilate this world?

The Queen of Nine Provinces felt that the person in front of her was too terrifying.

Even somewhat frightening.

An honest man going wild is the fiercest.

"My master is the one who planned this catastrophe. Although he is cruel and ruthless, and extremely mad in his enterprises! But one thing, I believe: he would not harm his disciple."

Emperor Azure River spoke with great conviction.

"What about Seven Gem Slope!" The Queen of Nine Provinces roared in anger, "Seven Gem Slope died there in that painting! It was done by our ancestor! Our Hawthorne family has been guarding Seven Gem Slope with fragments of souls for generations!"

"How miserable she is, can you see clearer than I?" The Queen of Nine Provinces was almost insane.

She could not accept this reality.

Even if Heaven itself wants to kill her, she would puncture the sky to make a hole!

"You don’t believe me?" Emperor Azure River’s eyes carried a hint of disappointment, "Regardless, we have been brothers. Some matters, since the grand scheme can’t be changed, some details aren’t impossible to compromise."

Emperor Azure River drew a sword.

"What are you going to do!" The Queen of Nine Provinces backed away warily, her eyes fixed on the sword.

"I will die, and your telekinesis will enter my body. Only then can your life be preserved."

After Emperor Azure River finished, he advised one last time, "Queen of Nine Provinces, no matter what you’ve done, you are still my brother. At least back then, I admired your youthful spirit, admired your ambition."

"I am not a good person; I am merely a selfish person."

"I will seal myself for a sufficiently long time. This is the most I can do for you."

Emperor Azure River finished speaking and drove the sword into his own chest!

In an instant!

His telekinesis began to evaporate!

Telekinesis kept leaking out, ultimately forming a humanoid above his head.

"This is your only possible means of survival, Queen of Nine Provinces. Don’t persist in your folly."

After speaking, Emperor Azure River’s telekinesis promptly dispersed.

Only his body remained, falling to the ground.

"Impossible!" The Queen of Nine Provinces held her head in her hands, shouting almost madly, "This is impossible! How can so many martial artists in the world..."

Suddenly, she remembered that True Lord.

Could it be, truly, only kind people can avoid death?

Looking at Emperor Azure River’s corpse lying before her, the Queen of Nine Provinces was momentarily lost.

"Why is it like this!"

Her emotion was very unstable.

But just then, several people rushed in from outside.

"Stop!" The Queen of Nine Provinces extended her hand to halt them, "What is going on!"

"Report! Several True Lords have already died beneath that giant cauldron! Legends say that the giant cauldron can drain a person’s telekinesis, causing death! The more powerful one’s abilities, the worse the death!"

The messenger knelt on the ground, continuously kowtowing.

They also began to panic.

But in some people’s eyes, there was a trace of glee.

Because perhaps they might survive!

According to current rules, the more powerful one is, the quicker they die.

Hence the first to die would be the nobility.

"Withdraw." The Queen of Nine Provinces waved her hand.

These matters, she mostly knew.

But asking herself to abandon all her power, to be like those slaves?

She simply couldn’t do it!

"I will fight against Heavenly Dao!"

The Queen of Nine Provinces slowly drew the Emerald Power King Sword from her waist, chopping fiercely down!

Slaying Emperor Azure River’s corpse in succession before storing it, discarding it outside.

Seeing this, Julius Reed finally understood.

Why Emperor Azure River’s body was incomplete.

Turns out it was because the Queen of Nine Provinces vented her anger, did not heed Emperor Azure River’s advice, and discarded his body in pieces.

But she forgot that a strong person’s body has a soul.

It was precisely the presence of these souls that allowed Julius Reed to obtain these bodies, becoming a Demigod.

It seems Emperor Azure River’s speculation was not wrong.

His body did not vanish; it remained until today, perhaps signifying that the Swordsman indeed showed leniency.

Only the Queen of Nine Provinces did not cherish it.

"Is this what you left for me?" Julius Reed asked the Swordsman.

"I have left you many things. After all, not everyone can be a pawn, playing chess requires thinking, requires wisdom." The Swordsman pointed to his own head, did not deny it.

"Then why did Emperor Azure River die?" Julius Reed asked.

Indeed, Seven Gem Slope did not die.

But now, Emperor Azure River is truly dead.

Emperor Azure River was a responsible person; he chose to sacrifice himself in his final moment to save the Queen of Nine Provinces.

He sealed himself to prevent the Queen of Nine Provinces from continuing her misdeeds.

Only allowing her to live as a martial artist.

Because besides this, the only reason one could survive is...

Becoming a civilian.

With not a bit of power.

This, to a martial artist, is simply unfeasible.

The Queen of Nine Provinces found a massive formation, prepared to trap herself within.

"I’m quite curious why the Queen of Nine Provinces, knowing None King was a traitor, still arranged for None King to settle herself." Julius Reed looked at the Queen of Nine Provinces walking out from the second space, drenched in cold sweat.

Realizing that force was about to swallow the Queen of Nine Provinces.

And learned from None King, it was indeed None King who killed the Queen of Nine Provinces.

"People always calculate; actually she did not die."

The Swordsman chuckled softly, pointing at the scene before them.

None King indeed carried away the Queen of Nine Provinces, laying on that bed himself.

However, in this world, there are always people who seem similar.

That was the Queen of Nine Provinces’ substitute.

The real Queen of Nine Provinces, upon experiencing how terrifying that great cauldron was, directly walked into the great hall.

Completely merging her telekinesis into the hall.

None King did not die; it was also the Queen of Nine Provinces’ arrangement.

Because the Queen needed people to awaken her.

But unfortunately, the Queen calculated thousands of times but did not predict Julius Reed would appear.

If not for Julius Reed, she in that hall, merging with Hawthorne’s fragments of souls, waiting for None King to open the door, she would come out.

But Julius Reed’s appearance directly made the Queen fearless.

Especially, that sword!

Her remnant soul was in that sword.

As long as the two remnant souls congregated together, the Queen of Nine Provinces could be reborn anew.

But Julius Reed decisively acted, coupled with True Lord Jiu You tearing the painting, releasing Seven Gem Slope, making the Queen’s soul scatter completely.

"I’m very curious about that cataclysm..."

Before Julius Reed finished, the Swordsman interrupted, "The human heart. When Blood Soul Emperor feels fear, others will feel even more terror. The more powerful someone is, the more afraid of dying they become. That cauldron does indeed have the effect of absorbing spiritual power but doesn’t kill."

"Those who died were all attempting to reduce their internal power, trying to escape the disaster but failed. And people like True Lord Jiu You were scared into letting their remnant souls out."

The Swordsman pushed lightly, and Julius Reed felt dizzy, reappearing in the central square.
