I Only Marry Widows-Chapter 304 - 36: The Man, the Legend
Only Du Xiaoyue subconsciously thought of Lu Chengfeng.
After all, she was very clear in her heart that the true Zhao Tianyou was nothing but a drunkard wandering in brothels. During the battle at Three Rivers, it was their Sect Leader who single-handedly broke through thousands of troops, slaying Li Xiaotian and making a name for himself in the Martial World.
However, when she saw Du Mengyan’s cold eyes, she instantly realized that now the Sect Leader had become a demon hated by all in the Martial World.
Black Wind Ancestor and the leaders of other factions all wanted to force the Sect Leader to show himself to extract the secret of immortality from him.
In such a situation, the Sect Leader had no choice but to appear on Jade Dragon Mountain as ’Zhao Tianyou’ to resolve the encirclement by the crowd.
Various thoughts flashed through her mind, and Du Xiaoyue quickly realized her rashness. She first froze, then silently used True Qi to stimulate her tear glands, and suddenly her eyes reddened, tears streaming down her face.
"Senior Sister, how did you end up like this? It’s all my fault, all my fault. It’s my incompetence that I can’t help you!"
She cried uncontrollably, her eyes red as she looked at Du Mengyan, as if her heart was breaking.
The Elder and True Inheritance disciple beside them also knew she had always been close to the First Seat, the two originally having a blood relationship as second cousins, and Du Mengyan had always considered her a confidante.
While Du Xiaoyue might lack some cunning, she always acted with integrity, was upright, and hated evil. Over the years of experience, she had gained more respect from her fellow disciples, and was quite close to mastering Sword Intent.
Seeing Du Xiaoyue almost faint from crying, everyone admired the deep bond between the two sisters.
Only Du Mengyan saw Du Xiaoyue’s exaggerated acting and couldn’t help but feel helpless, thinking, "This girl is as fake as can be."
She was severely injured at this moment, having only comprehended a trace of Destiny Law, staying alive thanks to the Bihua Immortal Bone.
Seeing everyone around her creating chaos, she couldn’t move or speak, but when she glanced outside at the man surrounded by the rising Scarlet Dragon, she felt an immense sense of peace.
So she acted directly and closed her eyes, ignoring the surrounding clamor.
As the Yimu Heaven-Reaching Sword Technique’s Cultivation Technique operated, she once again entered that mysterious realm.
Especially the Destiny Law she just comprehended seemed particularly compatible with the Bihua Immortal Bone, causing this completely green, jade-like Immortal Bone to grow strands of ring-like patterns similar to tree rings.
Although these patterns were rare and crooked, seemingly just shallowly etched on the Immortal Bone, unable to penetrate deeply.
But this change started to subtly transform Du Mengyan’s entire being, as the Yimu Heaven-Reaching Sword Technique operated, Essence, Qi, and Spirit gradually converged within the Immortal Bone.
Her soul had suffered severe trauma, originally about to dissipate completely, yet now it was gathered by that trace of Destiny Law, all absorbed into the Immortal Bone.
As she closed her eyes, everyone around saw a purplish-blue color appear in the center of her forehead, flickering like a flame.
No one dared make a sound, fearing to disturb her, nor did they dare to feed her any pills, they could only watch wide-eyed.
Especially since ’Zhao Tianyou’ was fighting Black Wind Ancestor outside, they remained anxious, uncertain if ’Zhao Tianyou’ could withstand Black Wind Ancestor, much less their own fate and that of Dragon Taming Mountain.
They anxiously stared at the fight outside the hall, their hearts in their throats, sincerely praying, hoping ’Zhao Tianyou’ would emerge victorious.
Otherwise... they would all fall into the hands of that old demon, unable to seek life, nor death.
