c1598: 1636: A Turning Point

The people of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion showed reluctance.

Slave Heart Demon Emperor resolutely said, "No! We cannot kill the master!"

"He has temporarily gone mad. I believe he will wake up in the future."

"Just like Senior Jiang Wuya, didn’t he wake up after going mad for years under the master’s guidance?"

"And True Word Venerable, didn’t she also once go mad and later had an epiphany?"

"The master is so remarkably talented. Give him time, and he will surely wake up himself!"

Her anxious voice echoed in Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

Everyone remained silent.

In the end, it was the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master, showing compassion, who said:

"I also believe that given time, he will wake himself up and become the mightiest Heavenly Person One Decline Venerable."

"But, he doesn’t have time."

"Our Taicang State is already hopeless; the Giant King’s army from the Extreme East will soon conquer Taicang State."

"Jiang Fan is their must-kill target. Do you wish to see him, in madness, being toyed with and tortured to death by the Ancient Giants?"

Slave Heart Demon Emperor opened her mouth, tears of agony falling down.

Her tears fell to the ground, transforming into pearls that hit the ground with clear sounds.

In the silent scene, only the sobbing of Slave Heart Demon Emperor remained.

Everyone looked toward Jiang Fan, as well as toward Fairy Yun Shang who had accepted the entrustment.

No one urged.

Because killing the one you love with your own hands is unbelievably painful.

Fairy Yun Shang’s shoulders trembled, recalling the scene from when she was forced by the Sky Demon Emperor to kill Jiang Fan.

Unexpectedly, this scene is playing out again.

The difference is this time Jiang Fan is requesting her to kill him.

Tears fell, as she looked at the most important man in her life, unable to draw her sword for a long time.

Liu Qingxian choked, "Let someone else do it."

Fairy Yun Shang shook her head, withdrawing the Green Frost Sword from Liu Qingxian’s waist, running her fingers across it.

The cold blade emanated a chilling coldness, reflecting her lifeless yet stunning face.

She softly spoke, "Jiang asked me to send him off, it is his trust in me."

"I cannot let him down!"

The Green Frost Sword rose slowly yet couldn’t be brought down.

Fairy Yun Shang wept profusely, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably, lamenting:

"Jiang, I will come down to accompany you soon!"

With that said, a sword descended.

The sharp light cut toward Jiang Fan’s neck.

Clink~

At this moment.

A source of Yin Qi shot through the air, touching Fairy Yun Shang’s wrist.

Fairy Yun Shang felt pain and instinctively let go.

The Green Frost Sword brushed past Jiang Fan’s neck, leaving a bloody scar with emerging blood beads.

Fairy Yun Shang clutched her wrist, looking toward the source of the Yin Qi with a slight frown.

But, when she saw who it was, she covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes naturally showing respect.

Liu Qingxian was surprised when she looked over, her eyes showing complexity.

There was defiance, but also genuine respect.

Everyone turned their heads to look.

When Xia Chaoge saw who arrived, she covered her waist instinctively, where the Earth Tooth Sword was.

Beside her, Xuanxuan looked curiously at the arrival, a woman extremely beautiful, whose appearance was not much inferior to Fairy Yun Shang.

Her demeanor was dignified, calm, and poised.

Her cultivation reached the Sixth-stage Nascent Soul. Strangely, although she belonged to the Human Clan, she possessed the Yin Qi of the Asura Clan.

Stranger still, Xia Chaoge, Fairy Yun Shang, and Liu Qingxian’s expressions were peculiar.

They all seemed somewhat afraid of her.

Xuanxuan curiously asked Nangong Xiaoyun beside her, "Who is she? Why do they seem so afraid of her?"
