Reincarnation of the Human Swordsman

53

The footsteps of a young man sounded within such a large hall. This hall is empty and there is only a man with a sturdy body, sitting on a throne while supporting his head with his right hand. His face looked so fierce, his gaze straight ahead, at the young man who was now approaching and kneeling at him.

“Tuan ...,” said the young man, opening his headscarf. “I've completed the task you gave me.”

“Oh, good work, Chi Ling,” replied the big man on the throne.

Chi Ling also without further ado directly revealed her purpose of coming here, “Master, I have twice killed my teacher with my own two hands.” He was silent for a moment, then continued, “I came here to ask that master release my lover.”

The young man tried to hold back the anger in his heart. He deliberately bit his lip until it bled so that it could suppress emotions so as not to seep out on his face.

“You never change, Chi Ling.” The man who was sitting in the singasana earlier, got up and got closer to Chi Ling. He then without guilt, said to the young man, “But you did it for too long, so that by force your lover must treat my boredom with his soul.”

Time stopped in an instant. Chi Ling fell silent, trying to process what happened.

“Tuan ..”.

Before Chi Ling could finish his sentence, the burly man immediately said, “I swept away his soul from the universe.” He sat back on his singa. “Now go, Chi Ling. I can't give your lover back that.”

'Can't go back? Dileyapkan ... from the universe? Qian Ruyue ….'

All the memories of her lover—Qian Ruyue, revolved within Chi Ling's head. However, those memories then froze and broke into pieces, leaving behind a darkness that swallowed everything.

Slowly, Chi Ling stood up. The young man's head bowed, both of his hands clenched tightly. His empty eyes, staring forward, were instantly filled with a deep hatred that was clouding the black aura all over his body.

“I won't forgive ...”

“Hm?” The man on top of the singasana only tilted his head, not the slightest bit seeing Chi Ling as a threat.

“Tian Money!” Chi Ling instantly shot forward, attacking the man on top of singasa with a streak of blows. “I'll kill you!”

The god named Tian Wang smiled faintly, fending off all of Chi Ling's punches with his left hand alone. He then launched a counterattack using a single punch that looked careless, but it was enough to make Chi Ling crash into the wall of the hall.

“You will pay for this!” Once again Chi Ling coated herself with energy power. He did not give up and again attacked Tian Wang with a jet-black dragon-shaped attack.

“Lower creatures like you will never be able to reach the power of a god,” Tian Wang said, rising from the throne, destroying Chi Ling's attack using a single slap.

Tian Wang walked over, but Chi Ling did not give the man any space to move freely. He unhesitatingly immediately attacked with full force, launching thousands of black-coloured dragons from all directions.

Despite being faced with thousands of attacks at the same time, Tian Wang was undaunted. The man smiled faintly, then in the blink of an eye was already in front of Chi Ling. He also unhesitatingly smashed Chi Ling in the face with a single hard blow.

Chi Ling was sprawled with a face full of blood. He lost before he knew when the attack hit his face.

In a hallway illuminated by several torches on the wall, there are rows of iron bars that hold so many captives. The captives were made up of humans as well as gods that Tian Wang disliked. That vile god no matter whether his captive was a good person or a bad person, he only included people he disliked.

“You will pay for all this, Tian Wang,” said the only person who was in a backward prison, before Chi Ling was thrown here. The man's gaze was sharp forward, filled with anger and hatred.

“Hahahaha!” Tian Wang laughed as much as he could, then looked back at the man inside the iron bars. “Luo Xiao is dead, Ling Chen. His best student killed him twice.”

The man in jail—Ling Chen was undaunted at the provocation. All of his hatred and anger still remained only directed at Tian Wang, not at Chi Ling.

“Thank you to me,” continued Tian Wang, “I voluntarily brought Chi Ling to you so that you could take full revenge! You know that this particular prison allows anyone inside to stay alive.”

After saying all those provocations, Tian Wang immediately left. He did not really care how Ling Chen would treat Chi Ling in prison.

“I know you won't die that easily, Luo Xiao. This time I alone will destroy your soul completely so as not to be reincarnated again!”

“Are you also coming, Yue Jian?” zhang asked as he stood up, facing outside the iron bars.

There was no response for a moment, until Zhang finally turned his head back, seeing Yue Jian slowly standing up. The young man lowered his head, then slowly replied, “Ya. You guys alone won't be able to get out of here safely.”

“Then ...,” Zhang back facing outside the bars, “say the plan.” He firmly believed in Yue Jian's abilities.

“If we can't break through with Chi's help, then we have no choice but to use your muscles, Zhang.” This time Yue Jian no longer hid the killing and hateful air that came out of his body.

“But I'm not sure if the trick will be that simple ...” Zhang became doubtful at Yue Jian's plan. “Can it be possible?”

“It turns out you can also use your brain.” Yue Jian walked over to the iron bars, then pulled out the key from his pants pocket. “I took this when attacking that jerk earlier.”

“As expected of Yue Jian.”

Yue Jian had already prepared everything. He deliberately acted foolishly to trick Mu Lan, so that no one would notice him taking the key that was hung on Mu Lan's waist.

“Open,” Yue Jian said as he opened the prison door and walked out on guard.

Zhang followed behind Yue Jian while muttering, “As the little King said. Your calmness is indeed very terrible, Yue Jian.” The praise was sincerely expressed by Zhang.

“Now where are we going?” asked Huo Lin who was following out along with Ling Qian.

“We won't be able to go anywhere if we can't get out of here,” said Yue Jian who then glanced around. When looking at the many other prison rooms around, he then got an idea, “However, we need some people's help to get out of here.”
