Chapter 155 Settling the Karma
Chapter 155 Settling the Karma
"What?"
Bai Tianxiong was taken aback.
He never expected that you, his kind-hearted little brother, would suddenly attack him.
In an instant.
The formation is activated.
An endless roar echoed within the formation, and at the same time, Bai Yuechan was swiftly teleported outside the formation.
This is a Thousand Talisman Killing Formation specially prepared for him by Lu Qingyun.
Over the years, Lu Qingyun naturally could not have improved his array skills to the first-tier high grade.
Fortunately, Bai Tianxiong, whose cultivation in array formations was even lower, did not notice anything amiss and did not suspect Lu Qingyun.
Moreover, the numerous first-tier high-grade talismans that Bai Tianxiong had accumulated, drawn, and purchased gave him the illusion that Lu Qingyun was truly a first-tier high-grade array cultivator.
In reality, the power of this Thousand Talisman Killing Array is indeed quite good, but it relies more on the Dao of Talismans than the Dao of Arrays.
The most important formation among them is actually the Small Teleportation Formation that teleports Bai Yuechan out.
Seeing the billowing black smoke and streaks of light, Lu Qingyun did not hesitate at all. He immediately reversed his grip on the magic sword and activated his supernatural powers.
"Who are you? You scoundrel! I, Bai, have no grudge against you, and I have treated you with utmost sincerity. Why do you treat me like this?"
Bai Tianxiong's face was solemn and cold. He was covered in injuries and questioned the man in disbelief.
"Sincere? Hahahaha! As a dignified cultivator, I never expected that Bai Tianxiong, who was once adept at betraying his own people and harming his own clan, and who used his own people as resources, would actually say no to such a thing?"
Lu Qingyun smiled dismissively, showing no intention of explaining anything to Bai Tianxiong.
After all, Bai Yuechan was still able to control Bai Baixiong at this time.
It wouldn't be good if he really went to extremes and tried to take Bai Yuechan down with him.
At that very moment, Bai Yuechan, who had broken free from Bai Tianxiong's control, immediately transmitted her voice to Lu Qingyun:
"Qingyun, don't take the old thief's oath to heart. He was just lying to you from the beginning. He was only thinking of using me as resources to achieve Foundation Establishment, and then killing everyone in the secret realm to plunder their resources!"
Bai Yuechan gritted her teeth and said:
"Don't let that old thief escape! He seems to be feigning compliance, but he's definitely deliberately creating an opening, secretly preparing to use the magical artifact forged from Zheng Zhizhuo's leg bone to escape!"
"Of course I know."
Lu Qingyun nodded and returned.
At the same time, the sword in his hand did not stop at all. It immediately surged with overwhelming power, imbued with the sword intent of immortality, and mixed with the power of the supernatural power of the Spirit-Seizing Wood, and rushed towards Bai Tianxiong.
The sword light, seemingly white and blue, appeared slow but was actually incredibly sharp, immediately heading towards Bai Tianxiong's face.
"How hateful! This brat is so ruthless! In the blink of an eye, he devised this formation to severely injure me, and then directly unleashed his killing move against me. I, Bai Tianxiong, am not reconciled!"
Bai Tianxiong let out a mournful roar, and when his divine sense inadvertently swept around him and found that Bai Yuechan was nowhere to be seen, his eyes widened in fury.
Even if he manages to escape from this battle, Bai Yuechan has probably already been killed or abducted by this villain.
Seeing that his path to enlightenment was hopeless and his life was threatened, Bai Tianxiong immediately unleashed his strongest killing move and charged towards Lu Qingyun.
Bai Tianxiong no longer wanted to think about who Lu Qingyun was. Only by killing him could he take back everything and have hope for his future.
"Crimson Lotus Devourer, Frosty Sharp Edge!"
In the blink of an eye, Bai Tianxiong unleashed two completely different magical powers.
At this moment, he had already risked his life, just to kill Lu Qingyun and seize that sliver of hope.
"Bai Tianxiong is indeed a man of great experience and wisdom. In just a moment, he risked his life without the slightest hesitation."
Lu Qingyun's eyes turned slightly cold.
Fortunately, he had the upper hand.
How could a mere rogue cultivator with only two supernatural abilities possibly contend with him, who had cultivated three supernatural abilities, even if that third one was still quite rudimentary?
However, the difference between being half a step into the Foundation Establishment stage and possessing a single supernatural power is already as vast as an insurmountable chasm!
No matter how exquisite Bai Tianxiong's Xuan Shuang Devouring Flame Technique was, it was ultimately too late.
In the next instant, the cyan and crimson magic brushed past each other.
Lu Qingyun's magic sword also slashed past Bai Tianxiong.
boom!
After a loud bang,
Lu Qingyun held the magic sword upside down and wiped his messy sleeves.
Bai Tianxiong spat out a mouthful of blood in frustration, and his entire body was instantly split in two.
"You, you're Lu Qingyun? You're not dead!"
Bai Tianxiongdi's pupils widened in disbelief. He didn't even care about his dying body as he stared at Lu Qingyun.
"good."
Lu Qingyun turned around leisurely and smiled slightly.
"Senior Bai is indeed clever! You guessed my identity after only taking one of my supernatural attacks. Actually, I might as well tell you that not only am I not dead, but all these years, I have to thank you for taking the blame for me."
Lu Qingyun stepped forward and unleashed another burst of magical power, shattering Bai Tianxiong's heart.
Then, she whispered in his ear:
"In fact, it wasn't just the elders of the market town back then, but also my good uncle Li Fulai. Even the spiritual essence of the Pingyang spiritual vein fell into my hands. Otherwise, how could I have broken through to the half-step Foundation Establishment stage so quickly and cultivated three divine abilities?"
"You...you!"
His once-proud face was now pale and bluish.
He never imagined that all the suffering he had endured over the years was because of you.
This world shouldn't be like this!
His life, Bai Tianxiong's life, should not be like this!
Bai Tianxiong choked back tears, wanting to curse, but Lu Qingyun's sword was faster than him.
Before he could utter a curse, the sword swiftly severed his head, turning Bai Tianxiong into three pieces.
Bai Tianxiong's life completely vanished.
Lu Qingyun activated his magic power and checked Bai Tianxiong's sea of consciousness again, discovering that he had completely lost his soul.
Only then did they take the storage bag from his body.
"That's great...it really is you!"
He watched as Bai Tianxiong died.
Looking at Lu Qingyun, whose face had returned to normal and who was still handsome, Bai Yuechan shed two tears.
Bai Yuechan's face had aged somewhat; there were barely perceptible wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and even her once beautiful hair had turned gray.
However, she couldn't suppress the joy in her eyes.
After waiting for decades, the man who had promised her has finally returned!
He didn't lie to her.
He really came to save her, he really came to save her!
"I'm sorry I'm late."
Bai Yuechan's tears flowed incessantly, and Lu Qingyun sighed:
"You've suffered all these years."
"It's not bitter, at least I can still see you once, it's just a pity that I will never be young again."
Bai Yuechan smiled foolishly, as if she had returned to the first time she met Lu Qingyun and the first time they embraced.
"But it was all worth it in the end."
As Bai Yuechan pondered, a hint of sadness crept into her eyes. She paused, then pleaded, "Could you sit with me for a while?"
"it is good."
Looking into her eyes, Lu Qingyun felt completely calm and agreed.
Just like it was back in Lingtian.
The two remained silent for a moment, then sat on the ground, watching the sunset over the secret realm.
It wasn't until much later that Lu Qingyun stood up, closed her eyes, and watched her sever her own heart meridian, yet a smile still lingered on her lips. He remained silent for a long time.
He did not stop her from taking her own life; that was her freedom.
In this life, the karmic ties with the Bai family have been completely severed.
But when they meet again in their next life, they will still be as beautiful as ever.
By then, she would no longer need to worry about Bai Tianxiong's threats.
