Legend of the Great Sage

d on a cultivation method from the Human realm.
With his great cultivation and corresponding knowledge and wit, he was always untouchable.
He did not have to throw his life at anybody.
Everything was within his grasp all the time.

“That is why I say your fury and hatred is all fake.
To you, preserving your life is always the priority.”

With the wrath of the son of heaven, blood flowed across the land.
The blood of other people.

Si Long was untouchable, but was Li Qingshan any different? He had just personally severed his own path of retreat, choosing to turn it into a do-or-die situation.

Si Long did not lose this battle in strength or wit, but determination.

Of course, there was nothing strange about Si Long’s behaviour.
To regular cultivators, self-preservation was always the priority, let alone a Human Sovereign who had made it to the peak of mortality like him.
He already possessed an extremely lengthy lifespan, enough for him to enjoy all the pleasures life had to offer.

Those who were well off avoided all risks, let alone throwing their lives at someone else.

“I… see… Is this… my end… Hehe… Hahaha… Cough cough…”

Si Long laughed miserably as his body shook violently.
He seemed slightly relieved, yet also unwilling to accept this.

Xiao An stood with her sword.
If he wanted to detonate his demon heart, she would kill him in a single stroke.

However, he did not do that.
He laughed away without stopping like a madman, mixed in with the sharp laughter of a woman.
At this boundary between the Human realm and the Demon domain, he completely sank into the Demon domain, falling into madness.

As such, Xiao An did not strike.
She tilted her head.
“It’s you?”

The laughter gradually subsided, turning into the voice of a woman.
The rhombus crystal embedded in Si Long’s forehead turned into a woman’s appearance, bearing some resemblance to Qian Rongzhi, but also a little frostier than before.

His body trembled away and twisted violently, turning into the figure of a woman.
Demon qi gushed out, and her bloody skin recovered.
She was pale like paper and enchanting like a snake.
As the chosen child of heaven in the Demon domain, she seemed to be in even greater graces now.

“Yeah, it’s me.”

Li Qingshan furrowed his brows.
“You’ve devoured Si Long!”

He could easily imagine that she was like a malignant tumour living in Si Long’s body, constantly changing and multiplying until she completely devoured Si Long’s collapsed will.

Qian Rongzhi smiled.
“Si Long stopped existing a long time ago.
All that remained was an obsession.
He just refused to admit it.
Or in other words, I am Si Long.”

This was not possession.
As a person chosen by the heavens, under the chaotic, wicked will of the Demon domain, their souls had actually merged together a long time ago.
Their memories were connected, and their thought processes were linked.
They were more like two split personalities struggling against one another.

If Si Long won, he could eliminate the personality called “Qian Rongzhi” and act like he had possessed her successfully, or as if nothing had happened at all.
However, it was impossible for him to win.
The laws of the world were invisible and intangible, but they were everywhere.
Qian Rongzhi had already become a representative of the will of the Demon domain.
No thoughts of defiance were allowed.

Si Long understood this, which was why he tried to leave the Demon domain regardless of the price, yet he happened to run into Li Qingshan at a time like this.
That was his fated tribulation and perhaps the intangible will of the heavens at work too.

Li Qingshan drew the Frenzy Flower Blade of Path’s End and sneered.
“In other words, it’s best if I kill you.”

He loathed Qian Rongzhi even more than Si Long, such that he even developed the thought of nipping her in the bud as soon as possible.
If she were in charge of the battle earlier, then it was very likely for her to try and perish with him.
Instead, he would have to find a way to escape, not throw his life away at a madwoman.

As it was commonly said, the meek feared the tough, the tough feared the unruly, the unruly feared the desperate, and the desperate feared the shameless.
This woman was both desperate and shameless, so she truly was a troublesome person.

However, Qian Rongzhi ended up asking, “Is the Black Sun Demon Heart with you?”
