Chapter 299 – Seeing the Sky Again
In the dimly lit underground space, Yun Che knelt for three whole days and nights.
To Yun Canghai, death was, indeed, a relief. During these hundred years, he had longed to die in this manner countless times, but he was unable to die due to the fact that he was carrying important things and heavenly secrets of the Illusory Demon Realm, and now, all the things he had entrusted to Yun Che, the time had come for him to be relieved of this, and what’s more, his own liberation could be exchanged for Yun Che’s freedom.
Moreover, it wasn’t just for Yun Che to gain his freedom, it was also the only method that could guarantee his safety. Both the Xing Tian Sword and the Starfall Chain had soul imprints set by the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain, if Yun Che forcefully escaped the Xing Tian Sword’s suppression, it would definitely make the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain realize it, and thus track down how he managed to get out from under the Xing Tian Sword’s suppression, and if he escaped with Yun Canghai, the consequences would be even more unimaginable. With Yun Che’s current power, he couldn’t even be considered an ant in front of the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain. The only way for Yun Che to leave this place in the safest way was for Yun Canghai to end it on his own, allowing the Xing Heavenly Sword and the Chain of Starfall to collect their power due to the fact that they had no more targets.
Yun Che understood all of this, but again, this was just too cruel for him. Because Yun Canghai was the first true blood relative he had found in his two lives, he had not yet been able to fully feel the kind of warmth and blood connection that could only be found between blood relatives, and he had passed away forever before his eyes.
Yun Che, who was originally eager to leave this place, did not choose to leave immediately after gaining his freedom, but instead knelt in front of Yun Canghai for three whole days …… to keep his spirit for three days, and also used three days to calm all the sorrows and waves in his heart.
At the same time, a name, also within these three days, dead imprinted into his heart and sea.
Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain!
Three days passed, and Yun Che finally stirred, he opened his eyes and incomparably slowly got up, carefully moving Yun Canghai’s body into the Heavenly Poison Bead, and whispered softly and faintly under his breath: ”Grandfather, you have suffered for a hundred years, you must be longing to be able to return to your homeland. When I have the ability to go to the phantom demon realm that day, I will bring you back to the family that you have always been fond of and attached to, so that you can sleep peacefully in your hometown’s land …… When I have children in the future, I will bring my wife and children to visit you every year, and won’t let you be lonely …… ”
In a low recitation, Yun Che also stood up straight and looked up to the sky …… Heavenly Mighty Sword Region, regardless of whether you are right or evil, right or wrong, good or evil, but just by virtue of the fact that you have forced my grandfather to death, and killed my Uncle Xiao who saved me, on the day that I have enough power, I will have to have you pay the heaviest price to pay homage to the souls of my grandfather and Uncle Xiao in heaven! I need you to pay the heaviest price to honor the spirits of my grandfather and Uncle Xiao!
Yun Che’s hardness of heart was different from ordinary people, after three days of endless grief, as Yun Canghai was at peace with the Heavenly Poison Bead, his eyes became coldly awakened, and his heart was ethereal as well, as he raised his head to look into the sky above, and with a slight breath, he leapt up.
Bang!
With a tremor, the land in the sky above without the power of suppression was directly rushed away by Yun Che ……………………
Heavenly Sword Villa Imperial Sword Stage, a quarter past dawning.
The sky had just dawned, Ling Jie came to the Imperial Sword Terrace early as usual to start his morning practice, but these past few days, he was always distracted while practicing his sword, his mind full of thoughts about Burning Jade City and Princess Cang Yue’s marriage.
Hiss!
The Heavenly Mandarin Sword flew out of his hand, swinging in the air in waves of overlapping streams of light before swiftly flying back into his hand, and at this moment, a strange ringing suddenly came from diagonally below, this trace of noise caused him to instantly stop his movements, and just as he was about to gaze at his ears, a piece of the platform surface in front of Xing Tianjian’s sword suddenly collapsed, and a black silhouette darted out from it.
“Ahhhh!!!”
This sudden turn of events caused Ling Jie to be taken aback, and he retreated in a panic as he lost his voice in a strange cry. The silhouette that scurried out kept pulling up for more than ten feet before quickly falling down again, landing heavily in front of Ling Jie. Under the heavy pressure brought about by the Dragon Que, the rocks below appeared to crumble in a large area.
“You …… “Ling Jie once again took a step back, the Heavenly Mandarin Sword subconsciously crossed in front of his body, and just as he shouted out a word, his eyes suddenly widened, and his mouth lost its voice as he exclaimed in shock, “Old . . boss!!!”
Ling Jie’s appearance was alive as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
Someone who should have been dead for more than a year suddenly appeared out of the ground in front of him, what was it if not seeing a ghost. In that instant, Ling Jie truly thought that he had encountered the legendary swindle.
“Little Jie?” Yun Che looked at him with slight consternation, he did not expect that the first person he saw after he came out was actually Ling Jie. After not seeing him for sixteen months, Ling Jie had grown up a lot, and although his expression still carried a slight childishness, more than that, it was as stern as a sword blade.
Listening to his voice, feeling the aura of power from him, Ling Jie then woke up as if in a dream, his face revealed a huge surprise, he put away the Heavenly Mandarin Sword and rushed up, excited and incomparable: “Boss, you you …… you didn’t die? You actually didn’t die …… You really didn’t die?”
“Nonsense, if I died, would I still be able to stand here?” Yun Che laughed and said, similarly sighing in his heart, there was no doubt that for this period of time, everyone thought that he had died, and how those who cared about themselves would be heartbroken ……
“But, that day you were hit by the demon with that slap, and you were also sealed underneath together, it’s impossible for you to have any hope of living …… “Ling Jie said while his senses subconsciously swept towards Xing Tianjian, and he suddenly noticed that Xing Tianjian’s invisible pressure had already disappeared. These days, when he was practicing his sword at the Royal Sword Stage, he had also always felt that there seemed to be something wrong somewhere, but he had never thought towards Xing Tianjian.
Ling Jie’s eyes widened as he said, ”Could it be, is it that you didn’t die that day even though you were so heavily injured, and the demonic man didn’t lay another hand on you …… then you came to life, and in turn killed the demonic man? Wow ah ah ah! That’s right, it must be like this, only if the demonic man died could he escape Xing Tianjian’s suppression! Boss, you are just too powerful …… ah ah ah ah! Worthy of being my Ling Jie’s boss, there is literally nothing in this world that you can’t do. I was so stupid to believe that my Ling Jie’s boss died so easily …… hahahahaha! Boss, you know what, right now you’re an unsurpassed legend in the Cangfeng Empire, and after the news that you’re still alive gets out, it’ll be an even bigger and bigger legend!!!”
“Wow! Your current Xuan power aura is actually even more powerful than my big brother’s… Could it be that, your current Xuan power is already above the fourth level of the Spirit Xuan Realm?” Noticing the mellowness of Yun Che’s Xuan Force aura, Ling Jie was even more alarmed. Sixteen months ago, Yun Che’s Xuan power was only at the first level of the Spirit Xuan Realm, but now, his Xuan power aura was so thick that it had surpassed Ling Yun, who was currently at the fourth level of the Earth Xuan Realm! This caused Ling Jie to almost not drop his jaw in shock.
Yun Che at the tenth level of the True Xuan Realm was able to defeat Xia Qingyue at the Earth Xuan Realm, and now that Yun Che was above the fourth level of the Earth Xuan Realm, his battle power was simply incalculable!
“I’m currently at the sixth level of the Earth Xuan Realm …… The demonic man wasn’t killed by me, he severed his own heart vein in order for me to gain my freedom.” Yun Che incomparably calmly said.
“Earth Xuan Realm …… level six?” The corner of Ling Jie’s eyes twitched, and his throat viciously “gulped”. In sixteen months’ time, going from Spirit Xuan Realm Level 1 to Earth Xuan Realm Level 6, or in the underground with no resources, this was simply a mythical speed. Relative to this great shock, Yun Che’s later words were already basically unimportant, as he stared at Yun Che with wide eyes and froze, ”Boss, you are simply an omnipotent god, my admiration for you can no longer be described in any words …… Even though I have been working very hard this year, I am currently only at the tenth level of the Spirit Xuan Realm. only at the tenth level of the Spirit Xuan Realm …… do you still accept me as a junior brother?”
At the age of seventeen, at the tenth level of the Spirit Xuan Realm, crushing Ling Yun, who was once the number one person of the younger generation, sensationalizing the Heavenly Sword Villa and sensationalizing the Cangfeng Empire, Ling Jie had also been proud of himself, but he now suddenly realized that this bit of his own achievements, in front of Yun Che, who had rushed from the first level of the Spirit Xuan Realm to the sixth level of the Earth Xuan Realm in less than a year and a half, was nothing but a plate of sheer dregs.
Yun Che casually smiled and said, ”I was able to reach the Earth Xuan Realm by using a special method, it’s actually nothing particularly remarkable. During the time I was suppressed, a lot must have happened in the Cangfeng Empire, right ……”
“Uh-huh uh-huh!” all took you as their faith. The Cangfeng Imperial Family also received supreme honor because of you, and it was said that the number of disciples who enrolled in the Cangfeng Xuanfu and the major branch Xuanfu this year was seven or eight times more than in previous years. The small courtyard where you lived in the Cangfeng Xuanfu’s inner mansion was also protected separately, and in front of the inner mansion’s Taixuan Hall, there was also a statue of you, and I’ve heard that the words written on the statue stated that you were the most outstanding disciple in the history of the Cangfeng Xuanfu. Until now, the Cangfeng Empire is still filled with your legends. That said …… Boss! You are really too awesome, how exactly did you do those things ……?”
“……” Yun Che was stunned, didn’t he just get the first place in the ranking battle, it was normal to be a sensation, but it wasn’t so influential to this extent, was it?
He was still completely unaware that the reason why he had caused a sensation throughout the empire, obtaining the first place in the ranking battle was only a secondary reason, and the main reason, was that he, a person with no power behind him, whose name was not known by several people before the ranking battle, had actually married the Empire’s recognized number one beauty of the present day, and the number one of the younger generation, Xia Qingyue, and had also knocked up the year’s number one beauty, the Ice-Chan Immortal that countless clan masters could only fantasize about, and also the only princess of the Cangfeng Empire, the only princess of the Cangfeng Empire. And also with the Cangfeng Empire’s only princess, the identity of the most noble woman private life ……
Such a guy, can only use four words to describe …… hanging fried a day!
As long as it is a man, either worship to the ground, or jealous to hate him after death to the eighteen layers of hell.
“Is it really that exaggerated?” Yun Che muttered in a low voice, then discreetly asked, “After I was suppressed by the Xing Heavenly Sword, what happened to Princess Cang Yue, and Yuanba and the others? What happened afterward?”
When Yun Che mentioned Princess Cang Yue, Ling Jie’s face stiffened, and all his excitement cooled down immediately. The change in his expression caused Yun Che’s heart to snap, and he hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong? What exactly happened after that?”
won’t be the princess sister’s intention …… that …… princess sister …… she …… she …… she is about to get married to Burning Jiecheng …… ……”
“What…… that!!!” Yun Che’s body visibly shook, and his face sunk.
“Boss, don’t be in a hurry, that must not be what Princess Sister is willing to do, she might have been coerced, or there might be some other unavoidable original ……”
“Tell me, what was the time they got married and where was the location?”
Yun Che coldly interrupted Ling Jie’s words, his voice was incomparably quiet …… so quiet that Ling Jie shivered, and completely subconsciously said, “The Burning Sky Sect’s team has already set off to welcome the bride to the Imperial City, and will arrive at the latest at the hour of tomorrow, and will be married in the Burning Sky Sect’s Yan Yang Hall after the fourth day… …”
As soon as Ling Jie’s words fell, Yun Che had already rushed out like a wild wind, and in the blink of an eye, he was already dozens of feet away.
“Wait..! Boss!!!”
Ling Jie quickly caught up and at the same time stretched out his left hand, and with the flash of a light, a large bird over two zhang long rushed towards Yun Che with a storm, “This is my contracted Xuan Beast, the Wind Flaming Bird, with its speed …… it might be too late!”
The Wind Flaming Bird was a Higher Earth Xuan Beast, in terms of speed, it was by no means inferior to the Storm Spirit Eagle, and it was dozens of times more than that in terms of endurance. Yun Che turned his face sideways, leapt high into the air, jumped onto the back of the Wind Flaming Bird, and then broke into the air with the Wind Flaming Bird’s long chirp, flying straight in the direction of the Cang Feng Imperial City.
“Hoo…… must be in time!!!” Ling Jie clenched his fists and said, at this time, he suddenly thought of the fact that Chu Yuechan had been found to be pregnant sixteen months ago, and hurriedly exclaimed, “Boss! Wait, there is another very important thing ……”
The Wind Flaming Bird was extremely fast, and at this time, it had already transformed into a small black dot in the line of sight, and his voice was no longer able to reach …… And at this time, even if Yun Che, who was in a hurry, heard his voice, he would never turn back.
