Chapter 1913: My Promise Has Never Changed
Chapter 1913: My Promise Has Never Changed
In the distance, Sikong Jing, who was swiftly moving through the crowd, suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He widened his eyes in the direction of the stage, his spirit wildly shaken as he exclaimed, "Su Yuexi is actually planning to sever the Feiye Battle Body at this moment?"
After a brief pause, Sikong Jing increased his speed once more, flashing like a phantom toward the stage.
"Yue Xi intends to ignite the fighting spirit of everyone in the city..."
"By severing her battle body on the spot, she aims to spark everyone’s resolve to fight, but it’s too dangerous at this moment."
Even Sikong Jing had just learned of Su Yuexi’s decision to publicly sever the Feiye Battle Body...
Though it was inevitable that her battle body would be severed, Su Yuexi was harboring a second type of battle body ready to erupt.
Yet, even the Feiyun Butterfly was unaware of what form the second ’Thousand Beast Flower Blood Drop Battle Body’ would take upon eruption, or whether it would involve peril during its outburst.
It must be known that the moment after severing to unleash the second battle body, she would face the formidable foe, Pei Yupo.
Therefore, Sikong Jing must find a way to protect her when Yue Xi is in danger.
At this moment, the surroundings of the stage fell silent.
Even Pei Yupo revealed a look of disbelief, wondering if someone was insane to sever their battle body on the spot.
Murong Jianyun and others also jumped to their feet, similarly gazing at Su Yuexi on the stage in astonishment. Under normal circumstances, they would have intervened to stop her.
Yet, inexplicably, they were moved by Su Yuexi’s determination and intent, forgetting to act.
What remained was shock!
Of course, besides Murong Jianyun and Leng Sha Bai Xiaojin, who knew Sikong Jing wasn’t dead, others like Beicang Tianjue couldn’t help but think if Su Yuexi was having a massive breakdown?
Such unfathomable actions can only be made by someone half-mad, half-deranged—too crazy.
Boom...
In the instant silence pervaded the scene, Su Yuexi’s body burst with a resonant sound, followed by crackling throughout her body, as if her skin had burst open, and masses of fresh blood exploded from her body!
The blood seeped into her fiery red dress, turning it a deeper crimson.
Bai Xiaojin gasped, "The aura of Master’s battle body is weakening."
Leng Sha chimed in softly... "So, Master donned that red dress not only to signify her departure from the Willow Leaf Saint Manor but also to prevent the blood from staining it after severing the Feiye Battle Body."
"To avoid the skirt becoming unsightly..."
"Does she want her husband to see her at her best afterwards?"
Leng Sha’s words sent a jolt through Bai Xiaojin’s naive heart, causing it to tremble violently.
At the same time, Su Zhenglong and Mei Xiaofang, hidden in some shadowy corner by Old Fat Head and Renyou, were red-eyed with tears as they cried out, "Yue Xi, Yue Xi!"
Yet, beyond calling out their daughter’s name, they could do nothing.
Within the Willow Leaf Soldiers, Ye Ke and Liu Sanhu exchanged a fierce glare, tightly gripping their weapons.
Around the soldiers, many distant onlookers were also red-eyed. Among them were many experts of the Righteous Sect, who could clearly see everything happening on stage.
They whispered explanations of the scene to those who couldn’t see clearly, leaving countless people shocked.
And in the tallest building, on the topmost floor...
A cool female voice slowly intoned, "Young Master Sikong’s wife, Su Old Demon’s granddaughter, is truly admirable."
The speaker was none other than Boss Xiang, Xiong Tingting, though a trace of discomfort and lamentation flickered in her eyes...
"It’s a pity that Young Master Sikong still perished, and the Qianwang Holy Tower remains dauntingly high and unchallengeable."
"My child remains without any hope..."
In this battle, Xiong Tingting, much like an outsider, witnessed the unfolding scenes. She had even experienced Sikong Jing’s Qianyuan Soldier Killing Formation and witnessed the miraculous victory in Willow Leaf City.
Yet, none of it brought about any change.
Young Master Sikong still fell to Pei Kuang’s Spiritual Shadow Battle Puppet, and Willow Leaf City and Overlord Commerce were still embroiled in a frenzied struggle.
At this moment, even Madam Sikong was struggling...
And with the demise of Young Master Sikong, the hope of rescuing her beloved daughter from the Thousand Prison Tower was shattered.
These past half-days, Xiong Tingting’s spirits were at their lowest.
The Qianwang Holy Tower, like an abyss, devoured everything, unshakable, leaving her devoid of any hope.
Suddenly, just as Xiong Tingting was engulfed in helplessness and resentment, a faint voice gently spoke by her ear, "Boss Xiang, what Yue Xi is doing now is precisely bringing you hope, and my promise has never wavered."
The words struck Xiong Tingting with a massive shock, her eyes widening in disbelief.
Instinctively, she looked toward the source of the voice.
There she saw a tall black figure silently appearing before her, and even the experienced Xiong Tingting couldn’t help but cover her mouth at this moment.
Her entire face was stupefied...
After a while, she murmured, "Young Master Sikong, are you a person or a spirit after death?"
Of course, it was Sikong Jing who appeared now.
Even at his speed, he could only reach the edge of the two armies when Su Yuexi severed the Feiye Battle Body.
Then, he accidentally discovered Xiong Tingting’s location.
Happening to be in a high building where she could see the stage clearly, Sikong Jing ascended.
Of course, it was somewhat surprising that someone of Venerable Realm, like Xiong Tingting, didn’t notice his arrival at first....
Clearly, she was stunned by Su Yuexi’s actions.
Upon hearing it, Sikong Jing merely smiled and replied, "Yue Xi has never been mad."
After finishing, Sikong Jing didn’t have time for much explanation as he moved to the window, looking directly at Su Yuexi on the stage.
At this moment, Su Yuexi’s Feiye Battle Body had already lowered to First Grade.
It would soon completely vanish, and the Thousand Beast Flower Blood Drop Battle Body would erupt fiercely. Sikong Jing was both heartbroken and tense.
He, however, still had no time for Xiong Tingting.
Gazing intently at Su Yuexi, he murmured, "Perhaps I was wrong, Yue Xi wants to win..."
Previously, he thought Su Yuexi was betting on making the whole city soldiers, with no intention of defeating Pei Yupo. But now Sikong Jing saw, from afar, the determination on Su Yuexi’s face, and he finally realized his wife genuinely wanted victory.
She wanted to gamble with the Thousand Beast Flower Blood Drop Battle Body, to blast away Pei Yupo before the whole city and even Imperial Dragon Mountain.
Thinking of this, Sikong Jing continued talking to himself....
"Perhaps I should let Yue Xi fight to her heart’s content, perhaps I shouldn’t intervene now, perhaps I should let everyone in the city, and even on the entire Central Plains, witness Yue Xi’s Martial Arts Talent."
"As Su Beiheng’s granddaughter, she doesn’t want to lose to Pei Kuang’s son!"
Upon saying these things, Sikong Jing’s entire body trembled slightly, realizing he could easily rush onto the stage now and announce his return, but he decided to hold back, to let his wife do what she wants to do.
