Perhaps it was because he had found his enemy, and thus the murderous intent arose from his very soul.
The emotion came so intensely that he couldn't distinguish what the trembling in his heart was. So he thought he had fallen in love with her, married her and brought her back to his palace. After spending every day and night with her, he truly fell in love with his wife.
He remembered everything vividly, perhaps because the Tower of Reincarnation ensured his soul and memories remained intact. Perhaps it was originally just to ensure he remembered to kill the woman before him. But he fell in love with her, remembered her, searched for her, and loved her life after life, until his entire destiny veered off course.
“I don’t regret it,” he said softly.
Even if... she returns to her physical form.
Forget him completely.
They also regarded him as a mortal enemy.
But he never regretted loving her.
Even if she forgets, it's enough as long as he remembers.
He will always remember her, and the love between them.
He was no longer able to raise his knife against her.
In this war, and in the struggle, it turns out he really did lose.
"Heavenly Lord!" The woman's spirit sword seemed to carry a strange spiritual energy. The wound that pierced Xuanxi Heavenly Lord's dantian had never healed and was even corroding his physical body. The wound had turned pitch black, showing a terrifying appearance.
The young man, disregarding his anger at Xuanxi Tianjun for his lack of ambition, hurriedly pulled out several spirit pills from the void and stuffed them into Xuanxi Tianjun's mouth, saying urgently, "Wangshu Shaojun is an ancient spirit sword that has become sentient. It is said that on the day she became sentient and transformed into a human, her murderous aura soared to the heavens. She has always been strange and mysterious. Your status is so noble, Tianjun, we cannot delay."
Even the Celestial Guards of the Celestial Court, Jinmo, could not cause Xuanxi Heavenly Lord any harm.
Because Xuanxi Tianjun is...
“We can’t leave.” Xuanxi Tianjun simply lowered his long eyelashes and said calmly.
"What?!"
When he looked up in shock at his surroundings, he discovered that countless rays of light were converging towards the sky, and the hidden killing intent and pressure within them were terrifying. Almost in the blink of an eye, all the celestial guards were surrounded. When the rays of light dissipated, the sea of clouds was parted, and countless demonic and celestial beasts slowly revealed their enormous bodies.
The demonic beasts appeared and disappeared in the sea of clouds, their low roars causing the young man's eyes to narrow. He looked up and pointed at Wangshu Shaojun, demanding sharply, "Does the Northern Divine Kingdom truly intend to become an enemy of the Celestial Court?!"
"Isn't it the Celestial Court that covets my Divine Kingdom?" Wang Shu Shaojun sneered, pointing at the young man and saying coldly, "Turning black into white, the Celestial Court is shameless! It's truly an eye-opener! It's clearly the Celestial Court, you who covet my Divine Kingdom's wealth and supreme fighting power. Why do you put on this righteous act here?" She paused, her hands gripping the spirit sword tightly—her true form, her original human form—and murmured, "Back then, the Northern Divine Kingdom accepted the Celestial Court's invitation, sending countless demonic beasts into the Celestial Court. But where are they now?"
"They simply died in battle."
The young man said with a somewhat unpleasant expression.
"They were actually your cannon fodder!" Wang Shu Shaojun shouted angrily. "Everyone is equal under the Heavenly Court, but why are the Celestial Guards so noble, while those who charge into battle are my subjects from the North?! Aren't their lives lives too? Are you so noble, a grade above us?!"
Her hands trembled, unable to conceal the resentment on her face, and she said softly, "No! We are not inferior to you. Since the Celestial Court looks down on us barbarians, then let us break through the heavens and go! What's wrong with that?!" She couldn't help but think of those young subjects who had answered the Heavenly Court's summons and gone to the Celestial Court.
At that time, they still believed in the Celestial Court and its protection.
But the result was not like that.
The best young men died in battle in unknown places, never to return to their homeland.
If that's the case, why should she continue to submit?
She wanted to uphold the true destiny of her people.
"They're just some demonic beasts..." the young man said coldly.
Monsters are nothing but barbarians. The northern wilderness is barbaric. Even if they transform into humans, they are still lowly.
"Go tell those words to your Celestial Court's Water Star Lord and your Celestial Court's Great Demon Yingzhao!" Wangshu Shaojun sneered.
Her voice reverberated through the clouds, and more demonic beasts slowly gathered around her.
They shielded her with their massive bodies, and then deep pain was revealed in their enormous beastly eyes.
“That was our fault,” Xuanxi Tianjun suddenly said.
"Heavenly Lord!"
“I told my master long ago that since we have come to the Celestial Court, we are all born equal and should not regard the lives of these subjects as ants. The so-called nobility of the Celestial Court is only because of our birth. But true nobility is not about hiding on the blood-stained road paved with the lives of others. For every honor and glory, there should be a corresponding amount of bloodshed. We should be at the forefront.”
The handsome young man slightly raised his chin, and the light in his eyes was so captivating that it was impossible to look away. He said softly, "With glory bestowed upon you, you should cherish that honor even more."
"It sounds better when you talk than when you sing."
If you really think that way, why are you attacking her?
Wang Shu Shaojun just wanted to spit in this young man's face!
"How dare you question the Heavenly Emperor!" the young man roared in anger.
"A fair fight, why stab someone in the back?! A terrifying tactic! Why can't I question him?!" Wang Shu Shaojun pointed at Xuanxi Tianjun, a cold smile playing on his exquisitely beautiful face. He said in a low voice, "Xuanxi, you were the one who set the rules that day: our duel would be a matter of life and death. If you die, the Celestial Court will retreat. If I die..."
