Himmlischer König

Kapitel 63

The person on the stone chair did not come back to life.

Ye Chuhan, however, was nailed to the stone wall.

Zhan Yu, dressed in black, stood steadily in front of him. He remained motionless, maintaining the posture of thrusting his sword. The Azure Nether Sword pierced through Ye Chuhan's chest, and blood gushed from the clear blade.

From the very beginning, he lurked behind the stone chair, seizing this moment to deliver a fatal blow to Ye Chuhan. Caught off guard, Ye Chuhan was suffering unbearable pain from the backlash of the Heart-Connecting Gu Love Worm, and Ye Chuhan mistakenly believed that the person on the stone chair had come back to life!

There's no way you can dodge his sword!

Because of Lotus's departure, Ye Chuhan was in great turmoil and tormented by the Heart-Connecting Gu to the point of wishing for death. How could he possibly realize that someone was lurking in the stone house, waiting for an opportunity to kill him!

Inside the stone house, there was an eerie silence.

Ye Chuhan gasped for breath in pain, feeling the coldness of the sword cutting through his flesh with each breath. He was pinned to the stone wall, his clear eyes staring coldly at Zhan Yu.

"Why...why do you want me to die?"

Even if he has to die, he wants to die knowing why!

"The Tianshan Snow Gate owes me a blood debt!"

Zhan Yu gripped the Azure Nether Sword tightly, a chilling glint in his eyes, yet a brightness he had never shown before. "The Bai Clan's Heart-Connecting Gu, neither gods nor demons can stop it! My surname is Bai!!"

In an instant, Ye Chuhan understood everything.

"Bai..." Ye Chuhan murmured, her breathing becoming even more labored, blood streaming from the corner of her lips, "Zhan Yu... so you're from the Bai family... could you be Bai Rong, the young master of the Bai family..."

"That's right! Back then, in order to seize the Bai family's Heart-Connecting Gu, the Four Blood Shadows killed 113 members of the prestigious Bai family in one night! People in the martial arts world only know that the Four Blood Shadows are cruel, but they don't know that it was all secretly planned and arranged by the Tianshan Snow Sect! I endured humiliation and hardship in the Tianshan Snow Sect, just waiting for this day to personally kill my enemies!"

Ye Chuhan's eyes were sharp and empty.

Zhan Yu exerted force, and the Azure Nether Sword pierced Ye Chuhan's flesh even deeper. He said coldly, "Your father, Ye Zheng, slaughtered my entire Bai family. Now, the son must pay for the father's sins. Ye Chuhan, accept your fate!"

His eyes gleamed coldly, and as he was about to exert force with his arm, he suddenly heard Ye Chuhan let out a cold, low laugh.

"Zhan Yu, do you think you can kill me?!"

The words had barely left his lips!

A sharp glint flashed in Ye Chuhan's eyes. He pressed down on the blade of the Azure Nether Sword embedded in his chest with one hand, and struck out with his palm. The palm, as straight as an arrow, released tremendous power from under his palm and hit Zhan Yu's chest hard!

A deafening roar!

The chilling Azure Nether Sword flew out from Ye Chuhan's chest. Zhan Yu, gripping the sword, staggered back several steps, his face deathly pale, and a horrifying amount of blood gushing from the corner of his lips...

Compared to him, Ye Chuhan's injuries were far more severe.

Before the battle with Lotus had ended and the excruciating pain from the backlash of the Heart-Connecting Gu had subsided, Ye Chuhan suffered another severe injury to her chest, her internal organs shattered. Her true energy surged upwards, and the piercing pain penetrated her internal organs.

His inner energy couldn't protect him; instead, it harmed him! He had to leave immediately!

Ye Chuhan's pupils contracted, and with a light step, her snow-white figure shot out of the stone house like an arrow!

As Ye Chuhan leaped out of the stone house, the sound of the Azure Nether Sword cutting through the air came from behind her. Zhan Yu, who had been struck by a palm, was in hot pursuit. The Azure Nether Sword was infused with profound internal energy, and its deadly sword technique was extremely fierce.

The moment Ye Chuhan turned around, his whole body shone brightly, and the unsheathed Azure Jade Sword transformed into a screen of light, like a purple rainbow lightning. The ever-changing sword momentum countered against Zhan Yu, each move deadly!

A somber atmosphere pervaded the Flower Valley.

Because this place was Ye Chuhan's private territory, the disciples of Tianshan Snow Gate, despite guarding the outside, were unaware of the sudden danger lurking within the valley and Ye Chuhan's imminent death. The delicate maidservants, their faces pale with fright, fled in all directions to hide, desperate to escape for their lives.

The two swordsmen's fierce swordplay, each move a matter of life and death, caused plum blossoms to fall like rain.

In the Tianshan Snow Gate, Zhan Yu's swordsmanship and internal strength were second only to Ye Chuhan.

In this bloody battle, both sides gambled with their lives. Although Zhan Yu was hit by a palm, he still had internal energy and strength. Ye Chuhan, on the other hand, was already at his limit. The crazy backlash of the Heart-Connecting Gu was enough to kill gods and demons!

Snap—

With a long howl, the Azure Sword slashed at Ye Chuhan's throat. Ye Chuhan darted away, dodging the fatal blow, and finally staggered to his knees, supporting himself with his hand on the Azure Jade Sword. His face was ashen, and blood gushed from his wound.

He was exhausted!

Zhan Yu strode forward, his Azure Nether Sword pointed directly at Ye Chuhan's brow, his handsome face filled with a cold, arrogant killing intent. "Ye Chuhan, you've killed too many people. Today, it's finally your turn!"

Ye Chuhan looked up at him.

His eyes still held a faint, clear light, and his black hair flowed like a spring through his white robes. On his handsome face, which resembled that of a demon, a quiet smile slowly appeared. "Zhan Yu, you can't kill me."

"You are now my prisoner!"

Zhan Yu frowned coldly, and the Azure Nether Sword slowly moved down, approaching his throat, leaving a blood-red mark. On Ye Chuhan's pale skin, that line of blood was shocking.

"When your father wiped out my entire Bai family, you should have known that one day, the swords of the Bai family descendants would be pointed at you!"

Zhan Yu's voice carried a resolute coldness!

Ye Chuhan smiled slightly and said in a low voice, "Go ahead and do it. Use your Azure Nether Sword to pierce my throat and avenge the Bai family!"

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly retreated, and the Azure Jade Sword was already in his hand!

Zhan Yu leaped up, dodging the attack of the Azure Jade Sword. The plum blossoms in the flower valley were stirred up by Zhan Yu's protective true energy. He poured his powerful inner strength into the Azure Nether Sword, his killing intent as vast as the sea, and thrust it straight toward Ye Chuhan's throat!

He used all his true energy and internal strength in this attack, and Ye Chuhan, who was at her limit, definitely couldn't dodge it!
