Ling Tian Sword God-Chapter 638 - 636: Saving_1

"Only Ling Chen and Liu Xiling know the truth of this matter. Unfortunately, no one would believe the words of a demoness and her son. Even you didn't believe what that boy Ling Chen said."

Sensing Xu Ruoyan's sudden decline in momentum, Shentu Yan knew his words were having an effect. His eyes gleamed with an increasingly intense, sinister light. He continued, his voice dripping with malice, "You not only misunderstood the man you loved most, but you were even prepared to marry another to humiliate him. When that boy, Ling Chen, disregarded everything to rush into the Sky Void Palace and disrupt your wedding, you stabbed him in front of everyone, nearly ending his life."

Every word, like a needle, pricked Xu Ruoyan's heart, causing her delicate body to shudder violently.

So that's what happened.

A tragic, mournful expression appeared on Xu Ruoyan's exquisite face. Her mind conjured Ling Chen's image. Could it be that this fellow had never deceived her? It was all her fault. If only she had trusted Ling Chen a little more, then what happened later would not have occurred. The great commotion at the Sky Void Palace wedding would not have happened.

"From now on, we have nothing to do with each other."

"You can marry whoever you like; it's none of my business."

The words Ling Chen spoke before leaving still echoed in Xu Ruoyan's mind. At that time, how furious and resolute he had been. She had brought this all upon herself.

Xu Ruoyan's eyes were vacant, her spirit lost. She felt as if the sky and earth had turned dim, and the power within her body was rapidly fading, dissipating.

Her will had crumbled, and all the power that had erupted from her Despair completely dispersed.

"Xu Ruoyan, what face do you have left to live in this world? Let this Seat send you on your way!"

A murderous glint suddenly erupted in Shentu Yan's eyes. His body trembled, forcefully shattering Xu Ruoyan's sword qi. The next moment, he fiercely thrust out his palm, striking Xu Ruoyan hard.

BANG!

Xu Ruoyan's body crashed to the ground like a meteorite, kicking up a towering cloud of dust.

When the dust settled, Xu Ruoyan lay in a pile of rubble. Her originally white clothes were completely soaked, turning them into a blood robe. Most of the bones and meridians in her body were shattered. If it were an ordinary person, even a Top Sky Apex Strong, they would not have survived this.

Shentu Yan glanced at Xu Ruoyan on the ground in the distance. He then looked at the sword wound that pierced his own body; his internal organs were already affected by the cold qi. He waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Tianhe, go and finish her."

"Yes!"

Yun Tianhe's figure moved, and he leaped into the air above Xu Ruoyan. His gaze fell upon her, a look of pity appearing on his face. "Such a peerless beauty. What a pity."

Such beauties were rare in this world. But when Yun Tianhe thought of Xu Ruoyan's relationship with Ling Chen, a cruel glint couldn't help but flash through his eyes. No matter how good something is, if it's not mine, it's worthless. Instantly, Yun Tianhe clenched his fist, and True Qi surged forth. He swung a Sword Light through the air. With a wave of his sleeve, the sword qi pierced through space, streaking towards the injured Xu Ruoyan like lightning.

Xu Ruoyan watched the rapidly approaching sword qi, her pearly teeth biting her red lip tightly. A look of helplessness and sorrow flashed through her clear eyes. This battle... I've lost after all.

A tremor ran through her heart. She hadn't expected that only at the brink of death would she realize how much she owed Ling Chen. I'm afraid there's no chance to repay him in this lifetime. Her own death didn't matter, but was the Sky Void Palace to be thus annihilated under the Divine Intent Sect's butcher knives?

"Junior Sister!"

Feng Piaoliu stared, wide-eyed, as the beautiful figure, defenseless under Yun Tianhe's sword, was about to fade away. He couldn't help but roar in anguish. His voice, usually flowing and calm, was now filled with unparalleled Despair and grief.

WHOOSH!

As his hoarse cry resounded through the heavens, an incredibly urgent sound of something cutting through the air suddenly pierced the sky. Startled gazes turned upwards, only to see a Dart spinning as it shot through the air from a great distance, tearing a clear trail in the sky.

CLANG!

The Dart accurately struck the Sword Light Yun Tianhe had unleashed, shattering it instantly. Then, it spun and shot back the way it came.

RUMBLE!

A deafening sound filled the space between heaven and earth. The dark clouds suddenly split open, and a massive Black Warship entered everyone's sight.

That Dart indeed flew back onto the warship, where it was caught by a man dressed in Black Market attire.

"That is...?"

Sudden gasps of surprise arose. Feng Piaoliu quickly raised his head. There, at the very prow of the warship, a slender figure stood quietly. His robes billowed and snapped in the fierce wind. That face was incredibly familiar.

"Is that Ling Chen?!"

Feng Piaoliu stared blankly at that somewhat familiar figure. The next moment, he shot to his feet, his handsome face filled with disbelief and an indescribable, wild joy.

"Ling Chen?"

A commotion spread through the remaining Pupils of Tianxu Palace. None of them were strangers to Ling Chen—that insolent boy who had once barged into their Sky Void Palace alone and disrupted Xu Ruoyan's wedding.

Ling Chen... he actually came to rescue us?

Bai Qingwei gave a bitter smile. When Ling Chen had disrupted the wedding, their Sky Void Palace had shown no mercy. Even Great Elder Zhong Ziqi had moved to kill Ling Chen. Although Ling Chen eventually escaped, a deep enmity still existed between him and the Sky Void Palace. She never thought Ling Chen would appear at this moment.

Feng Piaoliu smiled. I knew it, this fellow is a man of sentiment and righteousness. He naturally knew why Ling Chen had appeared. Because someone he couldn't let go of was here.

RUSTLE... RUSTLE... RUSTLE...

A faint sound of footsteps came from behind, causing Xu Ruoyan, who had her beautiful eyes tightly closed, to slowly open them. She then looked at the figure that had appeared not far away at some unknown time. Her pearly teeth bit into her red lip, and a trace of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth. But she endured the turmoil in her heart, forcibly averting her gaze from that figure.

"I'm sorry..."

Although the voice was very faint, Ling Chen still heard Xu Ruoyan's words clearly.

Hearing this, Ling Chen was also startled. Then, a look of understanding appeared in his eyes. He gazed somewhat complexly at the silent, blood-soaked beautiful figure before him, and a soft light quietly welled up in his eyes.

"Next, leave it to me. I won't let anyone hurt you again."

Hearing this slightly hoarse, gentle voice, at this moment, even if Xu Ruoyan's heart was like cold ice, an indescribable sourness surged to the tip of her delicate nose, and mist gathered in her beautiful eyes.
