Chapter 837: Cut Off One’s Affections.
The aftermath from the collision of the two sword lights still did not dissipate.
[Clank~]
The two swords, with their respective masters’ fierce power, clashed against each other for no less than a hundred times in four or five breathing periods. Every time the swords made contact, it would generate a thundering noise and waves after waves of turbulent energy would fluctuate, with extremely fast frequency. The surrounding space was broken, though it quickly recovered under the repair of the laws of Heaven and Earth. The wind was blowing hard as sand and gravel were sent flying everywhere.
The mob was not able to get a glimpse of Xiao Luo and Blade King. This was due to the terrifying energy that was constantly being emitted that they could feel the intensity of this battle.
“This battle is terrifying. Even space can’t support the power generated by the two people’s energy.” The Duck Emperor was shocked in his heart. He used to think that his master, Chaos God, was the best in the world. That was until he met Xiao Luo, and such belief was completely destroyed.
Meanwhile, Gui didn’t look at the battle in the air, instead her eyes landed on the deputy of Blade King. The deputy was wrapped in a black robe from head to toe, leaving only a pair of eyes. She looked at him because he had been looking at her all the time, making her feel uncomfortable.
[Outside the Hall]
Su Li holding Su Bei’s hand, looked at the battle between Xiao Luo and Blade King in the distant sky. There were no waves of emotion on her delicate face.
“Mom, the sky is strange.”
Su Bei’s watery eyes were full of doubts. The sky seemed to be breaking, but it was also recovering rapidly. It was very different from what she knew.
Su Li’s lips parted and said, “There are people fighting there.”
“Oh~”
Su Bei adoringly bonked her little head and played with the small ball in her hand. Then her eyes lit up. “Is dad here?”
Su Li looked at her daughter and was surprised. How did she know? Was it just her sixth sense?
“Do you miss him?”
Su Li didn’t answer Su Bei’s question directly, and asked other questions instead.
Su Bei replied, “Hehe… mom, dad and Beibei will be together forever!”
Together forever?
Su Li was stunned, then shook her head with a bitter smile.
[Back Hall]
There was a courtyard house in the back hall, full of beautiful birds and flowers. It was very quiet and most suitable for living.
At this point, Zhang Dashan, Chai Zhiying, Shen Qingyan, Su Canye, Su Mu, Tang Ren and Xiao Ruyi, the same ones from Earth, walked into the courtyard house from their respective rooms, and looked at the thundering sky in the distance with great shock.
“Motherf*cker, what the f*ck is going on? Is the sky falling?” Zhang Dashan frowned deeply.
Chai Zhiying immediately reprimanded him, “Shut your foul mouth. Don’t talk nonsense, or I’ll rip your ear off!”
“What are you doing, my dear wife? Can’t you give your man some face? There’s so many people here…”
Zhang Dashan felt wronged. He then approached Su Canye. “Su Canye, what do you think?”
“When I discovered that my elder sister is the Queen of this world, I was naturally shocked. People here can fly for God’s sake! If I didn’t have excellent mental capacity, I would have thought that I have crossed into a fantasy world.” Su Canye replied.
These words struck a chord with everyone. They were well off on Earth. However, they were suddenly brought here by Su Li, who told them that there was a catastrophe coming. They were brought here to protect them. Then, their world view was suddenly overturned. This so-called Secret Land was like a page from a fantasy world. It has all kinds of beasts and superhuman feats like flying where possible.
Everything was so magical and incredible. It took them a long time to recover from the shock. Even now, they still felt like they were dreaming. If they didn’t pinch themselves hard and actually felt pain. They would’ve thought that this was a dream.
“It’s not my brother, is it?” Xiao Ruyi suddenly muttered something.
Xiao Luo .. Old Xiao… Brother-in-law?!
Everyone was thrown into a daze, because it was really possible, and the possibility was great.
“Sh*t, why didn’t I think of this before? Old Xiao also came to the Secret Land. He must have come to the Secret Land to find the goddess Su. How long has it been?” Zhang Dashan exclaimed.
“It makes sense. It really must be Brother-in-law!” Su Canye’s face was full of excitement.
“But if it’s Brother-in-law, why are they fighting?” Tang Ren looked at Xiao Ruyi, then at everyone, and put forward his own doubts.
”
”
This question made everyone lost in thought.
Only Shen Qingyan, whose beautiful face was full of bitterness, said, “Because only when you cut off one’s affections, can Li maintain her current cultivation. Once she becomes emotional, her cultivation will be greatly damaged.”
“By the time the great demon in the prophecy appears, she would have no ability to protect the thousands of lives in the Secret Land and Earth.”
“No way, what soap opera plot is this?” Zhang Dashan frowned deeply.
Su Canye also thought it was unreasonable, “Yes, maybe we really have no other choice but to sacrifice my Brother-in-law to protect the greater good?”
As soon as this was said, everyone was stunned, and their bodies trembled violently.
Cut off one’s affections?
Then the most direct and simple way was… Xiao Luo!
Everyone shuddered and dared not think any more.
“No, I have to go to goddess Su and say that Old Xiao is crazy devoted to her and she can’t do that to him.” Zhang Dashan immediately ran outside the courtyard.
The others also followed closely behind.
However, just as they walked to the gate of the courtyard, they were stopped by two guards, telling them that they were not allowed to leave for the time being.
“What are you doing? We are invited by your Queen as guests. Are you putting your guests under house arrest?” Zhang Dashan shouted.
“No, we’re not putting you under house arrest, but the situation right now is unique. Please stay in the courtyard. This is an order from her Royal Highness herself.” The guard explained.
“Don’t talk nonsense with this boss, I’m going to see goddess Su!” Zhang Shanda roared.
It was a pity that he was just an ordinary person with no cultivation. No matter how strong he was, he wouldn’t be a match to a cultivator. He was shocked back by the True Essence of the two guards and fell to the ground.
“You dare hit my man? This mother will fight with you!”
Chai Zhiying got angry and rushed up. However, she was also pushed back by the guard who was standing still.
No matter how many of them wanted to rush out, it was futile. There was no other way. Finally, they could only return to the courtyard.
“If anything happens to my brother, I will not spare that woman!” Xiao Ruyi gritted her teeth. No matter how powerful the other party was, she would try her best to seek justice for her brother.
“No, certainly my sister won’t be so cruel, right?” Su Canye shook his head. He couldn’t believe her sister Su Li would kill Xiao Luo.
