Chapter 270 Aftermath of Battle
Chapter 270 Aftermath of Battle
Everything happened so fast that many people couldn't digest what just happened. However, soon, Ancestor Huang rose, holding the Sky Thrusting Spear in his hands.
Shen Liang's expression changed drastically when he realized that everything was over. Xu Fuguo died and his primordial spirit was destroyed by Ancestor Huang.
The moment Shen Liang came back to his senses, he turned around to leave. However, a sword qi streaked across the sky, slicing off the lower body of Shen Liang cleanly.
"ARRRGHHH!"
Blood splashed as Shen Liang plummeted to the ground. Shen Liang screamed in pain. However, all he received was another cold stab of sword, as if he was impaled by an icy nail.
" Hmph, Trying to escape? The Four Seasons Valley waited thousands of years for this." Xia Yuqing's voice rang coldly.
" Xia Yuqing! You can't! You can't kill me!" Shen Liang roared! " The Imperial Family! They won't let it happen."
" Hmph, Even if the Emperor of Holy Qilin comes, he won't be able to stop you." Xia Yuqing clenched her sword and stabbed again.
" Three hundred…Three hundred disciples and four elders…Thanks to your Sky Martial Tower, we lost that many disciples and elders."
" You think I don't know? That you sent assassins after Mu Qinglian? You think I don't know how Grand Elder got poisoned?"
" Shen Liang! I ask you!" Xia Yuqing shouted. " You think I will let you go!?"
With another slash, Xia Yuqing severed both arms of Shen Liang, making him cry for mercy.
However, Xia Yuqing's face was cold, like million year old ice jade.
" Hah…Hahah! You bitch…If I am going to die…I will take down with you!"
Shen Liang's eyes turned bloodshot as his body started to swell. Bloody veins appeared all over his body, making him look like a monster.
Xia Yuqing backed away as the body of Shen Liang exploded. The power engulfed hundreds of meters as it was covered with a bloody mist, obscuring the divine sense and spiritual qi.
However, at that moment, Long Ming appeared like lightning descending from the sky, with his Raging Storm Wing swaying behind his back.
Holding a crystal clam in his hand, he opened it. " Hoho, Escape is futile, you bastard."
" ARRGHHH!"
An ethereal scream echoed across the space as light swirled around the open clam Long Ming was holding. Soon, a pure white pearl condensed in the clam, screaming and shouting to get out of it.
If one looks closely enough, one would be able to see the figure of Shen Liang within the pearl.
It was the Soul Trapping Clam Long Ming purchased from the store by using 15,000 Credits. It has the ability to trap someone's soul for two days. After that, it will get dissolved.
There a lot of things Shen Liang knew as the sect leader of Sky Martial Tower. Therefore, Long Ming had planned to use his primordial spirit for interrogation.
He just came out after seeing Xu Fuguo killed by Ancestor Huang. However, when he saw Shen Liang was trying blow himself up, he felt something wasn't right.
Judging the character of Shen Liang, he isn't someone who would die without trying to escape.
" And, Here you are. I knew you still have a hidden card in your sleeve." Long Ming laughed as he closed the clam, trapping the soul of Shen Liang inside.
Looking around he saw everyone looking at him with stunned gaze.
" What? Finish off the remaining one." Long Ming replied nonchalantly. " No one must escape from here."
" Also, Gather and regroup. Tomorrow, we shall go to the Sky Martial Tower."
Xia Yuqing's chest rose and fell, her beautiful dress was stained with blood. Long Ming stood beside her as he held her trembling hands.
" Master, You did well today. You should go and rest."
" En?"
" Master? Please return."
" Ah…"
Xia Yuqing came back to her sense when she heard Long Ming's voice. Long Ming glanced at Wu Liang and nodded.
" Sect Master Xia, Let's go back." Wu Liang held Xia Yuqing as they turned around and left.
Overseeing the battlefield, Long Ming instructed everyone and killed the remaining disciples and elders of Sky Martial Tower. Old Hag Li was personally crused by Elder Bai He, who already returned to her chambers after killing her.
As he was flying around the battlefield, his gaze fell on a figure slowly walking among the corpses.
" Big Sister Meng?"
Meng Zhi's clothes were torn as she was completly bloodied. She was holding the head of Li Shumei as she walking down slowly, with a vacant expression.
" Big Sister Meng? Big Sister Meng Zhi!"
" Eh…Ah…Little Brother Long." Meng Zhi came back to her sense as she smiled at Long Ming. " Oh dear, I am in such a messy state. I should clean up…"
" Are you alright?" Long Ming asked in a concerned voice, knowing she wasn't.
" Ah… I am alright. I am just…Tired after today's bloodshed." Meng Zhi stretched her body. " But guess what? I managed to kill this little whore."
" It looks like you had an old enmity with her, Big Sister Meng." Long Ming smiled. " I guess it's over now."
" I don't think so…" Meng Zhi murmured. " There are still many…
who I need to kill."
" Why worry about them now?" Long Ming placed his palm on Meng Zhi's shoulder, feeling the heat on her body.
" No matter what, I will support you."
" Long Ming…"
Meng Zhi looked at Long Ming for a while as she forced a smile on her face. "Alright, Do you want to melt my heart right now? Well, I am free tonight for some…steamy celebration."
" Haha, We shall talk about it later. But right now, How about you go and take a nice little bath?"
" Of course, That's what I was thinking about." Meng Zhi laughed lightly as she turned and walked away hurriedly.
As she crossed Long Ming, two streaks of water from her eyes, drenched her cheeks.
" Haah, Truly…A tiring day indeed."

'So, Today, I earned 10,000 from Daily Quest. The system would be gone tomorrow. I still have enough credits to purchase the Sky Lightning Crown.'
Returning back to the sect, She saw Ming Yuexin, Lin Xie, and Chen Yin surveying around, tending the wounds of the disciples who fought the battle.
All the disciples from the enemy sect either got killed or captured.
" What's the situation?" Long Ming asked in a calm voice.
" Only ten of us died." Lin Xie bit her lips. " But other than that, everyone else is fine."
" Hehe, Senior Brother, You are truly a god. You got so many treasures for us." Chen Yin grinned as she held Long Ming's arm.
" So, Shall we return it to the sect?"
" Why?" Long Ming laughed. " This is your reward. Keep all of them with you."
" And if you don't want to, you can exchange them for the contribution points in the Treasure Pavilion, purchasing other treasures from the sect."
" Hehe, Senior Brother, You are so generous."
" How about having a celebration tonight?"
" Yeah, This time, We want an all night…Celebration."
Long Ming was dumbfounded when he saw the hungry gazes of Ming Yuexin, Chen Yin, Lin Xie, and Shui Huan.
' Damn it, Why do I feel they are going to break my waist tonight?' Long Ming sweated as he found an excuse to walk away from there.
However, suddenly, a figure moved as she hugged Long Ming tightly.
" Senior Sister Mu?"
Long Ming could feel the heat of her body, it was like she was having a fever.
' Haah, I guess everyone here affected by the slaughter.' Long Ming sighed as he steeled his breath.
'Alright! Tonight, I shall make the best food for celebration!'
