Chapter 943: 943. Reverse Time Spirit Eyes
Chapter 944: 944. Reshape the World
The long saber slashed down, severing the blood-clothed young man’s right arm.
Amidst the girl’s piercing screams, the young man, clad in a deep red suit, grinned with increasing wildness and madness.
“Uncle Lin Han, do you feel the injustice of fate now?”
He pressed his right shoe onto the back of the girl’s head. “You get excited and happy for a long time just by being a dog of the Golden Sparrow, which is laughable. Without strength, without power, when you become a dog of a power faction, who can you protect?”
*Crack, crack—* The force of his right foot intensified. As the girl struggled wildly, her head was crushed further into the ground pit.
“See? You not only failed to cure your daughter’s disability, but you can’t even protect her life.”
The young man casually twirled the Blood-Eye Mask on his fingertip, condescendingly lecturing the middle-aged man in the distance.
Judging by their tone, they seemed to know each other.
“Damn you, Nian Gengcheng! What exactly do you want?!” The middle-aged bodyguard’s blood-red eyes bulged. His muscled arms pushed against the ground, his body arching to get up, but he was repeatedly forced to his knees by the overwhelming power of the Dao Comprehension Domain.
“Such impolite manners, Uncle.”
The young man smiled playfully. “But it’s okay, I only have a father, no mother. If you want to… I don’t mind.”
With that, the young man raised his hand. The Blood-Eye Mask transformed into a long saber again, and with a swift slash, he brutally severed the girl’s remaining left arm.
The girl twitched with a piercing cry and then went completely still. Only her dark hair, plastered to her face on the ground, fluttered in the blood-stained rain and fierce wind.
“Xiao Xi… Xiao Xi—!!”
“Nian Gengcheng!!!”
The man’s roar was like the lament of a vengeful spirit. The young man picked his ear with his little finger and tutted, “So noisy.”
“Uncle Lin Han, I’ll ask you one last time. Are you willing to join Burning Heaven and believe in the Supreme Heavenly Emperor?”
“I believe in your mother!!!”
“Ah, really, why are you so stubborn, my Uncle Han.”
The young man covered his face and sighed. “Don’t you understand yet? Once the Supreme Heavenly Emperor descends, all the injustices in this world will be eliminated. Your daughter’s legs… well, forget legs, let her grow a thousand legs, it’s no problem.”
“She’s already dead! Dead!!! Nian Gengcheng, Hahahaha! I will definitely kill you.”
The middle-aged bodyguard’s expression was one of unprecedented madness. “Kill you, kill you!!!”
Uncle Lin Han had always been an optimistic and proactive person. Even though his wife had died unexpectedly in a disaster ten years ago, and even though his daughter was disabled, he had maintained a positive attitude towards life.
When faced with difficulties, he would simply resolve them. There was no obstacle in life that couldn’t be overcome.
Because of this, even after repeatedly encountering setbacks, he had never thought of giving up in his efforts to treat Xiao Xi’s legs and had always worked hard. After many interviews, he finally succeeded in becoming an armed member of the Ke Family’s Golden Sparrow branch and even earned merit once.
Now, with just one more act of merit, he could exchange it for the Rare Spirit Materials needed to treat Xiao Xi’s legs!
But…
Why?
He couldn’t understand.
He had already worked so hard and was so close to success, why did this Burning Heaven scoundrel have to destroy everything he had!!
Why!!!
“Tsk tsk, Uncle Han, why are you so stupid? Didn’t I tell you? The Supreme Heavenly Emperor is a supreme being above all gods and beyond the Heavenly Dao. He knows everything, can do anything, and is the true God! So what if your daughter is dead? As long as He can resurrect and descend, He can fulfill all your wishes. Not to mention resurrecting your daughter, He can create a thousand more daughters for you, no problem.”
“Hehehehehe~! Then can He kill you, you little brat, for me?!”
“Oh? That’s a good question. Forgive this little brat for not being able to answer your question. So, Uncle Han, why don’t you join my Burning Heaven sect and verify it yourself?”
“Screw you.”
“…Truly, a child cannot be taught.”
The young man looked regretful but not discouraged. He continued, “It’s fine if you don’t want to join my sect. How about this? As long as you are willing to bring the ‘Heaven-Bestowed Seal’ to Sparrow God Mountain, I will help you resurrect Xiao Xi. What do you say?”
“Screw you.”
“You don’t believe in the Supreme Heavenly Emperor, but you must believe in the Fate World’s rules of Calamity, right? Your daughter died in the Fate World. The rewards from the settlement phase will definitely include a method to resurrect her.”
“Screw you.”
“…You don’t have the ability to obtain the settlement reward, but I, this little brat, do.” The young man stepped down harder on the girl’s head with his right foot, smiling. “Of course, if Uncle Han doesn’t want to resurrect Xiao Xi anymore, I won’t force you.”
“…”
In the distance, the middle-aged man’s face remained ferocious, but he finally fell silent.
A moment later, his voice rasped, “I’m just a bodyguard. Returning to Sparrow God Mountain requires rigorous scrutiny.”
“But you are the bodyguard of the Ke Family’s Third Young Master.”
Nian Gengcheng smiled playfully and handed over a short dagger. “Later, use this knife to kill that useless young master. The knife has the Heaven-Bestowed Seal, which will automatically curse the young master’s soul. When this young master’s corpse is sent back to Sparrow God Mountain, hehe~ the brilliance of Heaven’s bestowal will illuminate the entire mountain, letting those foolish big figures taste fear!”
The short dagger was tossed into the air, landing in front of the middle-aged man.
“I’ll keep Xiao Xi’s body for you for now. Whether to save her or not depends on your decision~”
When the middle-aged man looked up, the scoundrel and his daughter were already gone. Only the scoundrel’s lingering laughter echoed under the blood-red rain curtain.
The middle-aged man remained on the ground, twitching for a long time. Several minutes later, he finally slowly raised his head. His expression was blank, like a puppet whose soul had been ripped out. Blood streaks slid down the corners of his eyes, indistinguishable as blood rain or tears.
Xia Feng, activating his Reverse Time Spirit Eyes, watched the man’s receding figure in silence. He also sat there, lost in thought for a long time.
“Burning Heaven…”
He murmured, looking up at the sky, which had long been obscured by blood-red darkness. He narrowed his black eyes.
Gong Changyi, do you also agree with the ideals of these scoundrels?
After a moment of contemplation,
Xia Feng shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He needed to complete the Fusion Device for the Vermilion Bird Demonic Armor first. And, he also needed to kill that scoundrel named Nian Gengcheng!
Although he hadn’t truly sensed Nian Gengcheng’s spirit artifact face-to-face, Xia Feng felt that the spirit artifact Nian Gengcheng possessed should be his target spirit artifact!
Without further delay, Xia Feng continued to flash rapidly northward.
Along the way, he saw many temporal illusions, depicting various Burning Heaven believers abusing and seducing students. Indeed, many people, either feigning or truly out of their minds, had come to believe in Burning Heaven’s ideology.
“Don’t you understand yet, everyone!”
Finally, Xia Feng saw Nian Gengcheng.
The young man in the suit stood atop the clock tower, his arms spread wide as he looked down at nearly a hundred students in the plaza. His expression was solemn.
“The powerful are high above, and the strong trample on lives.”
He spoke like a great revolutionary, his passionate tone stirring and inspiring.
“Since we are dissatisfied with the injustice of the world’s Heavenly Dao, let us awaken the Supreme Heavenly Emperor together and… reshape this world!”
