Sang Liuhé’s expression instantly turned extremely grave.
She really couldn’t understand how Lin Miaoxue could have appeared here.
By all rights, Lin Miaoxue should still have been inside the secret realm.
How could it have ended so early?
And she was with Ye Yu?
A flood of doubts surged through her mind.
But Sang Liuhé had no time to seek answers; she keenly noticed the coldness in Lin Miaoxue’s eyes.
She hastily began to explain, “Disciple, as soon as I ordered to find your husband Ye Yu’s whereabouts, I rushed here without delay,
planning to bring Ye Yu to you and create a surprise.
But then I discovered that Ye Yu truly deserves to die!
He secretly took five immortal spouses behind your back.
I can’t stand this for you!
And what’s wrong with saying he deserves to die? Isn’t that right? Shouldn’t it be so?”
Sang Liuhé put on an angry elder’s demeanor,
as if she were really standing up for Lin Miaoxue.
Hearing this,
Zhuo Lanqing shouted loudly, “That’s not true! You’ve intent to kill our husband, and you even threaten to kill us!”
At these words,
a murderous intent suddenly burst forth from Ye Yu’s body!
Anyone who dares harm his wives—
no matter who they are—won’t survive!
Wait, why is Zhong Qin here too?
Wasn’t she supposed to disbelieve the parallel worlds and go find answers alone?
How did she end up standing beside Bai Xichu?
What on earth happened?
Sensing Ye Yu’s gaze fixed on her, Zhong Qin tensed all over.
For a moment, she dared not meet his eyes,
forcing herself to look away.
This nervous feeling made her very uncomfortable.
At this moment, Lin Miaoxue slightly bowed her head and said softly, “Apologies.”
Sang Liuhé’s heart lifted, thinking her disciple had finally understood everything and wanted Ye Yu to apologize.
This made sense.
The husband she longed for was finally found, only to discover he had more than one immortal spouse.
Hmm, maybe this is a good thing.
Breaking this relationship,
and from now on serving the sword alone—
only then can one walk ever further on the Great Way!
All this talk about love and feelings, what does it mean anyway?
Sang Liuhé decided to add more fuel to Lin Miaoxue’s fire.
She said in a deep voice, “Disciple, what I need is not an apology,
but I don’t want to see you be troubled by emotions in the future.
You are a born prodigy of sword Dao and should not be shackled by trivial matters.
Come back with me and sever ties completely with this faithless man.
That is the right path.
If you want to cut all ties thoroughly, I will kill everyone here and end it all.
How about that?”
When she said the last two words,
Sang Liuhé’s murderous intent was fully revealed, her cold eyes fixed on Bai Xichu, Zhong Qin, and the others.
If possible,
she wanted to vent all the anger she just suffered on the spot.
This was simply outrageous!
To be beaten severely by a group of lower-realm cultivators was a tremendous humiliation!
“Shut up! I told you to apologize!”
Lin Miaoxue shouted fiercely.
An immortal sword suddenly appeared, its blade aimed straight at Sang Liuhé!
Her murderous intent surpassed even Sang Liuhé’s.
Suppressing her anger, Lin Miaoxue continued in a low voice, “I respect you as master, so I only asked for an apology.
But you repeatedly show murderous intent toward my husband!
What exactly do you want?
Sang Liuhé!
From now on, our master-disciple relationship is over.
Now, apologize and leave.
If not, we will fight to the death!”
This was the first time Lin Miaoxue addressed Sang Liuhé by name.
It showed how furious she was.
To her, Ye Yu was everything.
Without Ye Yu,
Lin Miaoxue could never have survived,
let alone ascended to the Heavenly Realm.
No one was more important than Ye Yu.
Not even a recently met master.
If Sang Liuhé hadn’t saved her in the past,
Lin Miaoxue would have long attacked with her sword!
Did she think the title of the strongest demon lord on the Central Continent thirty thousand years ago was given for free?
Sang Liuhé clenched her fists tightly, furious beyond measure.
The sword she had painstakingly prepared to nurture—
now Lin Miaoxue wanted to sever ties with her?
How could she stand by and watch this happen?
“Traitor! How dare you speak to me like that?
Today, I want you to watch your husband die before your eyes.
Then you’ll know what regret means!”
Since their relationship was already torn apart, Sang Liuhé no longer intended to pretend.
She wanted to kill Ye Yu, Bai Miaoling, Shangguan Jiujio, and everyone else!
To make Lin Miaoxue utterly regret it!
Then use secret arts to completely erase her memories and feelings.
Keep her by her side as the sharpest sword!
“You dare!”
Lin Miaoxue suddenly gripped her immortal sword, ready to strike Sang Liuhé directly.
At this moment, she was truly determined to kill her master!
Anyone who harmed her husband must die!
However, someone was faster than Lin Miaoxue.
Ye Yu flashed and suddenly appeared before Sang Liuhé.
Seeing this, she immediately raised a single finger,
and an immortal sword appeared, suddenly expanding a million times.
The huge blade fell down like Mount Tai, filled with unstoppable power.
But just as it was about to strike Ye Yu,
it suddenly stopped.
A «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» girl about seventeen or eighteen appeared above Ye Yu,
holding the towering sword with just two fingers.
This girl was the sword spirit Xiang Sizi.
She shook her head slightly.
“The sword’s grade is good, but it’s all show and no substance!”
Saying this, Xiang Sizi lightly tapped the center of the giant sword.
Suddenly, the colossal blade shattered.
Before Sang Liuhé could react,
countless green vines suddenly appeared, instantly piercing through her body.
In less than two breaths of time,
the Grand Elder of the Lichen Sword Sect fell on the spot.
In front of the Wuwei Tower Sect,
after seeing this scene,
Zhong Qin froze in place, unable to believe it.
“Im-impossible. How could he have the Great Wilderness Blood Vine?”
...
Northern Heavenly Realm.
Above the Shuoping Mountain Range,
Ban Xia looked around at the empty surroundings and started scratching her head in frustration.
What the hell?
What is going on?
Wasn’t the secret realm supposed to last two days?
Why had only half a day passed and all the immortals left?
Even the secret realm entrance was gone!
What was this?
Ye Yu, have you fallen? Or did you sneak away in the dark?
Hey?
Say something!
Ban Xia felt extremely frustrated, when suddenly she saw a familiar figure flying by.
It was the immortal who had talked to her earlier.
She hurriedly approached and asked, “Fellow immortal, what happened to the people who were here before?”
“They’re all gone.
Half an hour after you left, the secret realm collapsed early, so everyone left.
If I hadn’t left something behind, I wouldn’t have come back.
Oh, by the way, I saw your friend come out of the secret realm earlier.
Didn’t he use a communication stone to contact you?”
Hearing this, Ban Xia’s pretty face flushed red with anger.
She shouted to the sky, “Ye Yu, I’m not done with you!”
A hundred li away!
Zhu Diezhen had just ascended and suddenly heard a faint voice.
She couldn’t help murmuring, “Is it a hallucination? Why do I hear someone calling my husband’s name?”
Although unsure, Zhu Diezhen still flew toward the direction of the Shuoping Mountain Range.
