The world is filled with myriad sects, horrific demons, and rising heroes, but each only reigns for a few hundred years. This world had no protagonist; it was merely a cycle of one power replacing ...
As Li Sisui watched the golden spear pointing directly at him, images flashed through his mind, countless thoughts bursting forth and then vanishing.
He had witnessed the power of the light spear, and even though they didn't speak the same language, Li Sisui understood what this scene meant.
A sudden chill ran down my spine, my hair stood on end, my hands and feet turned icy cold, and I wanted to escape, but then I felt powerless and desperate.
He knew he couldn't escape if the spear of light fell.
The Golden Shield bodyguard's action was instantaneous, yet it was also Li Sisui's life-or-death moment.
A single thought can bring life, a single thought can bring death; it all happens in the blink of an eye.
Li Si couldn't understand why, if he was going to be executed, he had received so much care and courtesy over the past few days.
Why would you try to teach yourself a language?
Li Sisui was plagued by too many questions, but he had neither the ability nor the opportunity to get to the bottom of them.
The question facing him was to be or not to be.
Without the protagonist's halo, he suddenly fell from the sky, his fate—whether to live or die—was out of his control. Like a lowly insect, he had no choice but to pray for divine mercy.
A feeling of utter powerlessness overwhelmed Li Sisui like a raging flood, causing his body, which had been standing ramrod straight, to tremble slightly.
The overwhelming attachment to life and the impending loss of its beauty are difficult for anyone to control, especially when one has been invincible before. The feelings involved are complex and bittersweet, but the fear of death is in no way diminished!
Ah Yao looked at the long-haired man in front of him, his stiff body trembling slightly.
Although there was no verbal communication, the long-haired man clearly understood that he was about to be executed, without reason or explanation.
My destruction of you is none of your business.
The human he himself saved will also be executed by his own hands.
The village elder's command must be obeyed, especially since this person's fate concerns the entire village; there is no other choice.
He slowly raised his right hand, which was tightly gripping the light spear, his arm taut and straight.
One can imagine the scene of the light spears shooting out in the next second.
At this moment, A Yao was expressionless, his eyes fixed on Li Sisui, silent and cold.
Li Sisui's expression at this moment was quite complex, showing despair, doubt, resentment, humiliation, and a deep fear of death.
These were all thoughts that occurred in a fleeting moment, as if time had been stretched out infinitely and frozen in that instant.
The next second, the increasingly bright spear of light shot out in a bright straight line with a "whoosh" and flew towards Li Sisui.
Seeing the light spear flying towards him, Li Sisui's face turned ashen and his eyes became empty.
No amount of emotion can withstand death, which strips you of everything: your body, your emotions, and your memories.
And one's own demise is like that of an ant that has been swatted, silent, insignificant, and painless.
In the blink of an eye, a gust of wind swept from Li Sisui's side, and suddenly a hand reached out!
He gripped the light spear in front of Li Sisui tightly, the spear almost touching the tip of Li Sisui's nose.
The scorching spearhead resembled the crater of a volcano about to erupt, radiating heat.
The sound of the light spear tearing through the air stung Li Sisui's face, and such a fatal blow was actually intercepted.
Another person appeared beside Li Si at some point, disheveled and with an obscured face.
His clothes were tattered and torn, with obvious signs of mending, and many holes that had not yet been repaired.
The hand that caught the spear of light was rough and dark. With a strong grip, the spear, which had been shining brightly just moments before, instantly disintegrated, turning into specks of light that vanished.
Turning to look at Ah Yao, he said:
"Quickly summon the village elder!"
His voice was strong and resonant, full of energy.
Ah Yao was still in shock when he heard the words and realized what was happening. He quickly bowed and said:
"I have met the Cloud Piercer. Inform him immediately!"
After saying that, he turned and ran into the village.
Li Sisui also snapped out of his shock; the ups and downs of life were just too exciting!
Li Sisui staggered back several steps, collapsing onto the ground with a thud, panting heavily, his entire body soaked in sweat.
The joy of surviving the ordeal didn't last long; instead, it was replaced by deep humiliation.
This feeling of being powerless and at the mercy of others is like having a huge rock pressing on your chest, making it hard to breathe for a moment.
Not long after, the village elder appeared at the entrance of the village passage, surrounded by a group of people, and bowed to the Cloud Piercer, saying:
"I have met the Cloud Piercer."
The middle-aged man, called the Cloud Piercer, nodded to the village elder and said:
"Report if you have something to report, otherwise leave. Recently, there has been unrest in the Divine Land, and the Wei You clan has been making unusual moves. We hope that those who are capable will go to Longtai Mountain in the Far East as soon as possible to gather together and unite the clansmen."
"Furthermore, why fight among our own kind? If we are of the same kind, we should be of one mind. If I hadn't arrived in time, we would have lost another member of our clan."
The village elder hurriedly stepped forward and said:
"Envoy of the Clouds, please hear my report. The killing of our own people was a last resort. This person was found and brought back in the Giant Tree Forest. We couldn't communicate with him, and he seemed to have a significant connection with a mysterious organization. We were preparing to report him for relocation, but waiting for the Envoy of the Clouds yielded no results. We had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure to eliminate him as soon as possible and prevent future troubles. This matter concerns the life and death of our entire village, and we had no other choice but to do it."
Upon hearing that they couldn't understand each other's language, the Cloud Piercer's interest was piqued, and his gaze toward Li Sisui became intense.
That mysterious organization stirred up a storm in the desolate land of China, not only because of its formidable strength and elusive whereabouts, but also because it acted completely unpredictably.
They specifically target the Tu tribe, causing headaches for everyone within the sect. Any information related to that organization is taken extremely seriously.
In addition to searching for and gathering more clansmen, each Cloud Piercer now has an additional task: to collect any information about the mysterious organization. If they encounter any important information, they must immediately return to Longtai Mountain to report without delay.
