I Have Countless Past-life Identities-Chapter 44 - 42: Borrow a Wisp of the Great Sage’s Aura to Illuminate My Green Blood and Red Ink Heart—Allowed Entry to the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall!
Today.
Song Chai Xin, employing ’Circulation Qi Collection’, borrowed a trace of Divine Thought from Mr. Yang Xiu of the ’Demon-Suppressing Great Wall’ Baiyujing...
Using the Orthodox Fist of the ’Martial Arts Celestial Form’ seed on himself...
He severed a segment of Jiao Dragon’s tail from a Three Realms Great Demon Fiend!
The blood splashed everywhere; the pungent scent of blood awakened Tantai Ye from his foggy consciousness, coughing blood incessantly.
Though he couldn’t clearly see the scenes that just unfolded, each word rang true in his ears.
He watched as precious blood spilled from that segment of Jiao Dragon blood.
Feeling his body deteriorate rapidly.
Tantai Ye hesitated for a moment, then his brow furrowed fiercely. Using both hands and feet, he crawled to the edge of the clear pool despite being drenched in blood,
Immediately, like a beast consuming raw flesh and blood, he began devouring the purest segment of the Jiao Dragon, then drank its fresh blood, forcibly executing Foundation Establishment Technique to rebuild the ’Mercury Blood Silver Marrow’ barrier, exchanging his blood anew!
As he managed to cling desperately to life,
he gazed at Song Chai Xin, who lay unconscious with his head resting on the bluestone slab.
Tantai Ye walked over, knelt down directly, and without a word, knocked his head thrice loudly!
Helping Song Chai Xin up.
Both staggered out of the ’Green Blood Red Heart Pool’.
...
Zither Sword Pavilion, front mountain, Sword Viewing Platform.
Gu Hua had just left.
Then, Shangguan Cheng, without hesitation, used himself as fuel, fought with desperation alongside several Great Innate Elders of the Zither Sword Pavilion, finally driving back the demons left by Gu Hua.
By now, no sign of the Jiao Dragon returning.
Thus, this Zither Sword Pavilion Master decisively dispersed all disciples, instructing them to flee in all directions.
Until the vast White Jade Plaza was left with only Tantai Yao, who could barely move, and Xu Nian, who volunteered to guard the rear...
Shangguan Cheng stood up, swayed unsteadily, finally couldn’t hold on any longer, suddenly ’ah’, spitting out a mouthful of blood, using an ancient zither for support, instantly kneeling on one knee.
"Teacher!" Tantai Yao, whose mind was a tangled mess, was instantly brought back to reality.
"Pavilion Master!" Worry knitted Xu Nian’s brow continuously, supporting this exhausted old man.
"Such a prestigious name, a hundred years of foundation,"
"Destroyed by my hand!"
Gazing in the direction of the Green Blood Red Heart Pool, Shangguan Cheng felt a moment of suffocation, coupled with the broken Inner Scene of the Elixir Field, unable to reverse the situation, the end was near.
Finally, he took out the Zither Sword Order symbolizing the position of Pavilion Master, glanced at Tantai Yao, then at Xu Nian:
"You two, while that Jiao Demon is not back, leave quickly."
He felt a bit despondent:
"Green Blood Red Heart Pool, destroyed."
"Disciples from now on, hard to gather again!"
"Xu Nian!"
"From today, you are my ’Zither Sword Pavilion Master’!"
Xu Nian’s spirit was shocked, unable to resist speaking:
"But his teacher..."
Tantai Yao covered his severed arm, shaking his head with a bitter smile:
"As long as I am here for a day, Gu Hua will return with a vengeance."
"If the Zither Sword Pavilion is to remain, I must take my own life!"
Shangguan Cheng said nothing.
Xu Nian turned pale with shock, not even taking the Zither Sword Order, then grabbed Tantai Yao’s neck, seeing the person in front of her face flushed, shouted angrily:
"The Jiao Dragon spared you to give you a chance for revenge in the future!"
"If you take your own life, who would you be accountable to, Xie Wei, or all the mountain disciples and disciples?"
Instantly, Tantai Yao was shaken like a wobbly gourd, his one hand painfully prying open Xu Nian’s small hands, as if for the first time recognizing this always gentle woman before him, coughing, he said:
"Listen to me... Xu Nian..."
"I’m now half-destroyed, rising is as hard as climbing to the sky, but you have a promising future, if you leave, there might be..."
Before he could finish speaking,
An untimely indifferent voice rang out:
"You’re right, you’re indeed a good-for-nothing."
Xie Qiaoxuan, with eagle-sharp eyes, rushed over.
Accompanying him were Xiang Zhulu, wearing the Suanni Armor with a dark face, and Prefecture Venerable Bai Qiuyi, who was looking around for something.
Seeing the devastation of the Zither Sword Pavilion, Xie Qiaoxuan’s heart was secretly anxious. He happened to hear Tantai Yao’s self-deprecation, couldn’t help but utter a casual mocking sentence, then glanced at his severed arm:
"Looking for death just because of a severed arm, without the courage to break through realms and seek revenge, how can you bear great responsibilities?"
"Young lady, why not seek a higher position, it’s better than hanging from one tree, wasting past efforts."
With these words, Tantai Yao’s eyes dimmed, and Xu Nian immediately burst into anger.
"You old undying, what do you mean!"
From her frequent beatings of Tantai Ye’s actions,
Xu Nian was not of a gentle nature.
A woman’s heart, a needle at the bottom of the ocean, pretending is sometimes an art.
But at certain times, when you can no longer pretend, you might as well smash the pot to pieces.
As Tantai Yao looked at the yellow-robed figure standing before him, it felt like he was meeting Xu Nian for the first time, inexplicably feeling that interacting this way was far more comfortable than any master-disciple relationship.
Just...
Remembering the complicated and entangled relationship between the two, he felt only bitterness in his heart.
Yet Xie Qiaoxuan completely ignored Xu Nian’s intentions.
He took just three steps forward, frowned slightly, and placed his hand on Shangguan Cheng’s wrist, pausing for a moment,
then, rather regretfully spoke:
"You won’t make it."
Shangguan Cheng closed his eyes:
"I anticipated this long ago."
"Your Xie Family’s Qilinzi is at the ’Green Blood Red Heart Pool’, that Jiao Dragon Gu Hua suddenly flew off in that direction for some reason."
Thud, thud!
Before the words even finished, Xiang Zhulu’s expression changed, and his figure flickered as he wanted to rush to the ’Green Blood Red Heart Pool’.
As for Xie Qiaoxuan?
The moment Shangguan Cheng spoke, he was already anxious beyond measure:
"Old man, why didn’t you say so sooner!"
In the next moment, his voice still lingered, but his figure had already vanished without a trace.
However, just as the two third-step existences had taken a step,
they saw from afar two battered figures, stumbling step by step from the direction of the ’Green Blood Red Heart Pool’!
It was Tantai Ye and Song Chai Xin.
"Hmm?"
Prefecture Venerable Bai Qiuyi was greatly astonished:
"Where is the Jiao Dragon?"
Upon seeing a few unfamiliar great cultivators in the field and then seeing Tantai Yao and Xu Nian safe, Tantai Ye finally relaxed his tightly wound nerves:
"Gone."
"It must have sensed your esteemed presence and fled upon hearing the news."
Xiang Zhulu furrowed his brows:
"The ’Primordial Pill’ magic domain is so vast, we received a transmission from the Zither Sword Pavilion Master and rushed over without a pause; even if it fled, how could it have happened so timely?!"
He instinctively felt something was amiss.
But Xie Qiaoxuan was unconcerned about all that.
Taking Song Chai Xin from Tantai Ye’s hands, he checked his meridians and, finding no major issues, only that he was exhausted, he immediately let out a sigh of relief:
"Thankfully, thankfully, nothing major is amiss..."
But upon reflection, Xie Qiaoxuan was rather puzzled:
"How did you survive from that beast’s hands?"
Song Chai Xin could barely explain, but as for Tantai Ye, considering Gu Hua’s temperament, he should’ve been crushed long ago; how could he still be alive?
Until he listened to Tantai Ye’s detailed account.
Xie Qiaoxuan’s hand trembled.
Orthodox fist type, a Divine Thought from the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall?
"My half-broken ’Fenghuo Langyan’ fist chart, its original creator was actually the original owner of this ’Green Blood Red Heart Pool’?"
Xiang Zhulu came over upon hearing, also surprised by this revelation, and exchanged a glance with Xie Qiaoxuan:
"’Baiyujing Capital’ Yang Xiu, back in the pre-Great Zhao days, was named at the Divine Capital at the age of twenty and entered the Imperial College."
"Then, after the ’Wei River Covenant and White Horse Oath’ broke, he switched from the Confucian Family to the Military Family, now sitting at the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall, establishing a Baiyujing Capital atop a city wall, clearly a notable master among them."
"Could Song Chai Xin encounter such an opportunity?"
At this moment, Tantai Ye paused, recalling the moment when Song Chai Xin’s Divine Soul intertwined with that figure, a faint voice had resonated, though he was somewhat dazed at the time and didn’t hear it clearly.
Now thinking back...
It seemed that,
if Song Chai Xin could punch at Gu Hua!
Then, he could be taken as a recorded disciple by the one who engraved Baiyujing Capital on the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall!
He uncertainly conveyed what he heard.
Suddenly,
the two exchanged glances, utterly stunned.
Even Prefecture Venerable Bai Qiuyi was speechless:
"It’s extremely difficult to be recorded at the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall, for a Half-Demon to enter is as challenging as ascending to the heavens."
"That Baiyujing Capital could act decisively like this?!"
Wutong Prefecture is, after all, only a mansion’s land.
But the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall...
is a place that can hold sway over a state in Jianghu!
And it’s undoubtedly the leading power of Baoping State!
