Chapter 1616: Chapter 1616: Let’s Each Take a Step Back

Downstairs, An Jiuyue watched the fight while chatting with Wei Na in her spiritual space.

“Master, what do you plan to do with this Dragon Soul?”

Wei Na had no interest in the fight; after all, there was only one possible outcome for these people. However, he was extremely interested in the Dragon Soul.

This was the Dragon Soul of a True Dragon, not like the triceratops her master had collected, which was called a dragon but wasn’t really anything special—just a common demonic beast.

“What do you think should be done? Keep it in the space to nurture?” An Jiuyue had just obtained the Dragon Soul and had no clear plan in mind.

“This…”

Wei Na hesitated for a moment, glancing at the Dragon Soul in the hands of his master.

“Let’s nurture it, then. Perhaps when you, Master, ascend to higher planes in the future, you might find a way to give it a body and revive it as a true dragon.”

But for now, it could only enhance medicinal pills, arrays, and weapons. Beyond that, it had no other use.

He knew his master would disdain such actions.

“However, Master, it can’t be raised in the space; otherwise, it will become a spirit entity like me, forever bound to accompany the space in existence.”

That wouldn’t be too bad—it was better than the soul dissipating.

But the key point was that the space already had one artifact spirit. Having another would be inappropriate, and conflicts could easily arise.

Therefore, it was best to avoid that and find another solution for the master; perhaps find a suitable weapon for the Dragon Soul to inhabit temporarily, until a method to revive it could be found, and then extract it from the weapon.

“You could find it a Superior Grade Weapon to become an artifact spirit,” he suggested.

Hearing this, An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows.

She suddenly thought of a perfect place for it: Qian Jiyun’s space lacked a spirit entity, so why not it?

“Wei Na, thank you for the reminder.”

Just as they found a suitable place for the Dragon Soul, on the other side, the Great Elder clashed with Qian Jiyun. The already severely injured Third Elder carelessly suffered a wound from Qian Jiyun’s Sword Qi and fell heavily to the ground.

A large broken tree trunk lay on the ground, previously severed by the Liushang Sect members. He crashed directly onto it, and his entire chest was pierced, creating a large hole.

He screamed in agony, watching the bloody stump protruding from his chest.

“No, no…ugh!”

The Third Elder couldn’t believe this was his end. Muttering to himself, before he could articulate his thoughts, he vomited a large mouthful of blood.

After struggling for a short while, he finally closed his eyes in reluctance.

The Great Elder knew his comrade had died, but he dared not be careless now, nor could he think of avenging the Third Elder. All he could think about was how to escape from Qian Jiyun.

With his allies falling one by one, even faster than when they fought against An Jiuyue and her group, how could he not be afraid?

He wanted to complete the mission, but that didn’t mean he wanted to die!

Now that the Third Elder was dead, he had to escape and send a message to the Sect. If they were all to die here tonight, then one day, the Liushang Sect would inevitably be destroyed as well.

“Young man, let’s both take a step back, shall we?”

While exchanging blows with Qian Jiyun, barely dodging the lethal attacks, he gritted his teeth and spoke to Qian Jiyun.
