Chapter 1243 – Brand Collection
On the flagship’s luxurious and noble throne, Xu Xieyi slowly opened his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief. He had never left his seat. The moment he opened his eyes, he felt a sense of respect for the opponent that he looked down upon in the Yancheng.
“You don’t have any more cards left.”
Xu Xieyi walked to the head of the warship and looked down at the Yancheng, as well as the young man who had raised his head to look down at him.
He slowly floated down from the warship, that magnificent and noble brocade robe was still undamaged, and the Divine Court’s overseer medallion hung on his belt was also completely undamaged. It was as if the previous battle had never happened. If it wasn’t for the fact that the city walls were already incomplete, everyone might have suspected that the battle they had just witnessed was just an illusion.
As he landed on the city wall, Xu Xieyi continued to look down at him from above.
“Young man, what you just said touched me so much that for a moment I didn’t even want to kill you right away. I told you before, my duty is to eradicate you people, so if I chat more with people like you, I will be able to get rid of more people like you more easily and smoothly. ”
An Zheng responded with an “oh”. He stood up from the edge of the pit, held a small stone in his hand and threw it towards Xu Xieyi. When Little Rock was three meters away from Xu Xieyi’s face, he was immediately minced into powder by the strong force of the aura.
“Do you still have cards?”
Xu Xieyi asked.
An Zheng shook his head: “Unexpectedly, you got a good hand of card, and even hid it.”
Xu Xieyi laughed: “So I am always in an invincible position.”
An Zheng’s figure flew back and landed behind An Zheng. It waerson’s figure that did not look very real. Although An Zheng had already recalled his body back, it was still lacking when compared to the wargod like existence from before. Of course, they weren’t on the same level at all.
“Amazing.”
Xu Xieyi endlessly praised An Zheng as he looked at his body. “It’s been so many years, but I’ve never seen anyone who can cultivate their physical body to become someone else. Have you ever noticed that your body is almost exactly the same as your original body? ”
Of course An Zheng noticed it, and this was also one of the things that An Zheng was worried about.
Ever since his physical body had returned, An Zheng realized that his physical body was becoming more and more similar to her in terms of appearance. His original form was that of a golden armored war god, standing on a divine dragon. And now, it looked simple and natural, without the slightest bit of grandeur or aura. He seemed to be a clone of An Zheng, his perfect clone slowly taking shape.
However, An Zheng was not sure if this doppelg?nger was really an existence without its own intelligence and thoughts. For some reason, every time he looked at his current appearance, An Zheng couldn’t help but think of those Battle Practitioners that Chen Wunuo had created.
If one day, An Zheng’s appearance could also awaken his own thoughts, then... Is he still An Zheng’s physical form?
“I don’t want to kill you anymore.”
Xu Xieyi pointed at An Zheng’s body. “Now, not only do I want to grab you and bring you back for a chat every day, I also want to cut open your body to see what’s so different about you.”
An Zheng shook his head.
Xu Xieyi nodded: “Okay.”
He stepped forward, one step aime, without any signs of deliberate action. However, that powerful aura had razed everything within a hundred meters of him to the ground. Wherever he passed by, not a single grain of sand was left behind. All of them were swept away by the violent waves. It was at this moment that An Zheng suddenly realized what was happening … Xu Xieyi was not a romantic person. His most terrifying aspect was not in making the mountains and the rivers more poetic, more artistic, but rather, just that wisp of white.
He waerrible white, and his style was to erase everything.
“Now do you understand why I have become the Divine Court’s oracle? As I said before, my duty is to suppress and get rid of people like you, and my ability just happens to allow me to do all of this with greater ease. ”
Xu Xieyi only took one step after another, and the space he walked past turned blank. The walls were gone, the trees were gone, the official road was gone, the ruins of the buildings were gone, even the dust and gravel were gone. It was as if the blackboard that was originally filled with words and formulas had been erased by the black board. No, this description is not accurate … If the world could be said to be a colorful picture scroll, then Xu Xieyi would erase all of the colors wherever he passed.
It was a complete painting. Wherever he passed by, it was as if a part of it had been dug out, and then forcibly stuffed intiece of white paper.
That was why it seemed so sudden and unreasonable.
“Afraid?”
Xu Xieyi walked forward, but An Zheng had no choice but to retreat.
No matter how strong An Zheng’s perception was, he would not be able to sense where Xu Xieyi’s power came from. This iower that shouldn’t exist, the world exists in reality, erasing a part of the world … This is an incomprehensible phenomenon. No matter how you describe it, the world is not a blackboard, not a painting on a scroll.
“There’s no point in cowering.”
Xu Xieyi raised his finger and pointed to the sky. A layer of white gradually enveloped them. It was not a cloud. It was an ethereal cloud without any clouds. This wasn’t fog, it was much more real than fog.
It wauge, creepy piece of white paper, a canvas painted on nothing.
Xu Xieyi pointed to the ground with his other hand, and the color of the ground began to fade with a speed visible to the naked eye. The yellow earth had lost its yellow hue, and the uneven ground had been flattened. It was as if an invisible hand had flattened the white paper spread out on the table.
The sky turned white, the earth turned white, and the white was still shining. The burning light covered the space between the sky and the earth. An Zheng and Xu Xieyi both entered into an environment that was so white that when you added An Zheng’s body to the vast whiteness of the land, it was like a black dot within a sheet of whiteness, like ink dropped ontainting scroll by accident before it was drawn.
This was the world.
An Zheng had fought with many people who possessed their own world, but none of those people were so terrifying. This world is too big … He could not see the end of the world. Could this really be a small world of cultivators? Isn’t this the whole world?
“You came in.”
Xu Xieyi laughed, his smile looked extremely relaxed and casual. He rarely opened his own world when he was at war with his enemies, because the world was one of his secrets, one of his ultimate secrets. Once the boundary was opened, it meant that he had enough respect for his enemies.
“That’s your fault.”
An Zheng’s smile seemed to be a little bitter, but the tone of his voice didn’t sound decadent, nor did it contain any despair from losing his will to fight.
“It’s fine if you have hidden the cards, but you also hid two.”
An Zheng shook two of his fingers, which swayed casually in the midst of the white world and produced afterimages. In this world, what was not white was not scary. What was black was terrifying. It was as if no one could easily judge with good or evil.
This was Xu Xieyi’s painting scroll. He was not some ink that had fallen ontiece of white paper.
With a wave of his hand, a chair appeared behind him. Although it didn’t look as grand and luxurious as the throne on his flagship, the sudden appearance of the chair was still inconceivable. Xu Xieyi sat down on a chair, a piece of xuan paper suddenly appearing in his hands. He sat very upright, with the rice paper spread on his knees, and his fingers … His brush.
He put the brush down quickly.
When An Zheng wanted to move, it was already too late, many lines suddenly appeared around him, in an instant it turned intrison. When An Zheng reacted, the lines had already become solid. An Zheng’s physique was extraordinary, and his cultivation was not low either. However, when his fist landed on the lines, he was struck back with his fist, causing his bones to hurt.
He was in someone else’s ink painting.
“This is my world. Your power is negligible in my world. However, it is this minuscule matter that has made me have a whole new level of respect for you. Back then, when a Golden Immortal, who had the same strength as me, fought against me, he didn’t even have the strength to raise his hand and beg for mercy after falling into my realm. ”
When Xu Xieyi smiled, he looked like a gentle and refined teacher in a private school.
An Zheng still had strength, but this strength was not enough to allow him to break through his shackles.
When Xu Xieyi held his hands together, the lines around him started to shrink. The space inside the prison became smaller and smaller. An Zheng and his body stood back to back, both of them reaching out their hands to grasp the lines. Both of their arms were trembling uncontrollably, but their arms were still bent backwards little by little.
“It’s meaningless.”
Xu Xieyi’s finger drew a few dots on the xuan paper, causing countless sharp swords to appear and float in the air around the prison. But in the end, the prison bound An Zheng and his body together likope, leaving the two of them no room to struggle at all.
“Before I killed you, I suddenly had a question I wanted to ask you.”
Xu Xieyi raised his finger and paused.
“Say, right now, we are the monsters in your eyes, so your resistance is only natural. Then, if … I mean, if one day you really succeed, you overthrow the Celestial Palace. You became the one that controls the world, your people became us … Afteeriod of time, will you and your people become monsters in the eyes of others? ”
An Zheng’s face changed, this question seemed to have touched his soul.
But in fact, it wasn’t.
An Zheng only made himself look contradictory and hesitant, because he needed a little bit of time.
“Maybe. Everyone can’t perfectly control their desires, and neither can I. I have my own plans and my own goals, but why should I tell you this? What I can tell you right now has nothing to do with your problem. It’s something else. ”
“What?”
Xu Xieyi asked curiously.
An Zheng laughed, the smile on his mouth seemed very repulsive.
He used all his strength to pull his hand out of the restraints and waved it towards Xu Xieyi as he stretched two of his fingers out. Just like when he was waving his finger at Xu Xieyi, this scene seemed a little familiar.
“I hid two cards as well.”
