Chapter 1773: Chapter 1774: Beyond Cure

The majestic figure, familiar aura, and the visage that feels both strange yet close.

Ye Qingci, no longer the little girl from years past, now stands frozen, watching all this.

She had imagined their reunion many times, but when it truly happened, Ye Qingci just felt it was so unreal.

“Big Brother Su, is it really you?”

After a long pause, Ye Qingci hesitantly uttered this sentence.

Su Zhedian heard this and turned slightly, with a hint of a smile on his bearded face, still possessing that familiar confidence beneath the changed appearance.

“Lass, sorry, I’m late.”

The two were of the same generation, yet Su Zhedian was much older than Ye Qingci.

Now, Su Zhedian’s appearance has drastically changed, and he is no longer the youthful and impetuous figure he once was.

Of course, this change in appearance is more due to a change in the mind state.

The present Su Zhedian, matured over a hundred years, exudes a more stable aura.

But what remains unchanged is that self-assured confidence, almost to the level of arrogance, more prominent in Su Zhedian than in Long Xuan!

Ye Qingci clenched her fists, trying to suppress her inner excitement and prevent tears from streaming down her cheeks.

She never expected the reunion to happen at this moment, nor did she anticipate her current predicament to be resolved by Su Zhedian’s appearance.

A thousand words welled up, yet Ye Qingci couldn’t utter a single word facing Su Zhedian.

Meanwhile, Luo Changsheng also recognized the newcomer.

“Su Zhedian? You’re still alive!”

The voice came from all directions, with Luo Changsheng, no longer truly alive, sharing existence only with the surrounding destructive forces.

Su Zhedian glanced around, his eyes cold as he spoke.

“How come? After all the filthy things the Luo Clan did back then, they survived until now. Why shouldn’t I be alive?”

“Ridiculous! Rise to power, the master becomes wary, and the bow is discarded when all birds are shot. Since you and your father chose to be the dogs of Xia Country back then, you should understand this principle. This should be your fate. What does it have to do with our Luo Clan?”

“Is that so? Then why does the Luo Clan refuse to accept fate and persist in stubborn resistance here?”

Without rebuttal, Su Zhedian simply changed tack, piercing right into Luo Changsheng’s sore spot.

“Shut up!”

With Luo Changsheng’s roar, the destructive force of Cave Heaven surged towards Su Zhedian.

Su Zhedian gazed at it all, unmoved, looking at the familiar Sky-splitting Sword, muttering to himself.

“Old friend, long time no see. I must trouble you again this time.”

Grasping the familiar sword hilt, a melodious sword cry echoed in the void.

In an instant, golden sword light emanated from Su Zhedian, spreading in all directions.

The dominant sword momentum, with unmatched might, dissolved all the approaching Breath of Destruction.

Boom!

With a massive explosion, the golden light illuminated this void, and within this collapsing Cave Heaven threatening to turn into complete void at any moment, Su Zhedian’s power forcibly constructed a new small world.

“How is this possible! You, this guy, can create a domain with your bare hands!”

Resisting the collapse of Cave Heaven’s force isn’t difficult, even for someone at Divinity Transformation like Ye Qingci within the Earth Immortal Three Realms, holding off its impact temporarily wouldn’t be hard.

What had always troubled Ye Qingci was the void following Cave Heaven’s collapse.

Without Cave Heaven as support, everyone seemed exposed within countless fissures of Myriad Heavens and Worlds.

In this void, not to mention Earth Immortal, even a Daluo Golden Immortal here, if they fail to find an exit promptly, will eventually vanish into dust with the passage of time and the dissipation of mana.

With this move, Su Zhedian forcibly opened a new Cave Heaven within this void.

With the protection of this Cave Heaven, Luo Changsheng’s assault is merely a fiercer Earth Immortal strike, hardly anything worthy of note.

“Can’t really call it barehanded, am I not holding the Sky-splitting Sword? Merely expanding the Small Opening in the Sky-splitting Sword, forming a temporary domain.”

Su Zhedian spoke lightly, but Ye Qingci knew his words were not as simple as he said.

Not to mention Su Zhedian no longer being the owner of the Sky-splitting Sword; as the current rightful owner of the sword,

Ye Qingci is far from capable of achieving this, nor does she understand how to accomplish something almost beyond an Earth Immortal’s capacity.

Moreover, what astonished Ye Qingci more was that Luo Changsheng’s accumulated power from shattering the entire Cave Heaven, repeatedly smiting against the Small Opening created by the Sky-splitting Sword, couldn’t form any impact on this small world.

Within it, Ye Qingci felt incredibly secure; had she not clearly seen the void beyond Cave Heaven, she would have doubted whether she was already in a safe place.

“Impossible! How many years have passed, Su Zhedian, what realm have you reached now?!”

Accompanying Luo Changsheng’s repeated strikes, feeling his power dwindling continuously, finally filled with fear, Luo Changsheng screamed hysterically.

Su Zhedian indifferently observed the waning Luo Changsheng outside, speaking calmly.

“Luo Changsheng, do you know why the Luo Clan ended up in this state?”

“Shut up! You traitor of the Ancient Clan, you have no right to judge my Luo Clan.”

Su Zhedian chuckled softly, shaking his head.

“It’s this arrogance that has reduced your Luo Clan to such a plight.”

“Shut up! Shut up! I told you to shut up! Can’t you hear me!”

The aggressive onslaught continuously targets Su Zhedian, but the storm capable of annihilating everything dissolves entirely upon nearing the golden light, unable to pose the slightest threat to the realm Su Zhedian currently unfolds.

Su Zhedian calmly surveys it all, continuing.

“You pride yourselves on being lofty and superior, painting a prison with the land. Clinging desperately to ancestral legacy, believing you’ve obtained the whole world. Yet little do you know, what you see is merely the sky in a well, the moon in the water. From start to finish, you’ve never seen the world’s true visage.”

Clang!

The sword cried out as Su Zhedian swung the Sky-splitting Sword.

Within the golden domain, countless sword beams spread out, instantly sweeping away all destructive storms, creating a pure land within the void.

Ye Qingci glanced at the suddenly silent surroundings, still feeling somewhat unreal.

After scanning around and finding no more movement, she absentmindedly spoke.

“Is it over?”

“Not yet.”

Su Zhedian blandly replied, then crossed myriad voids with his gaze, locking onto the remnants of Luo Changsheng’s divine sense hidden beneath the void, attempting to divert disaster to Luo Clan’s Blessed Realm.

“Until the last moment, still trying to affect those in Luo Clan’s Blessed Realm. The Luo Clan is truly beyond saving! Die!”
