Chapter 905 - 905 891 Severing Ties

Chapter 905: Chapter 891: Severing Ties Chapter 905: Chapter 891: Severing Ties “This is not an excuse. I would rather have died myself than my father. You should divorce me, I can’t accept this,” Guo Yuqing said.

Su Zhan Ze knelt down and said, “I really didn’t expect something like this to happen. At that time, you were both under the threat of a knife, I had no choice.”

“Then let him kill me.”

“I couldn’t do it.”

Guo Yuqing grew agitated too and said, “I can’t do it either. I can’t accept you. Every time I see you, I am reminded of my dead father. How can you expect me to accept you?”

Su Zhan Ze was speechless.

“That was my father, my only father. And there were so many disciples from the Demon Palace who died. I really can’t act as if none of this ever happened. You should divorce me.”

“No, I won’t divorce you.”

“Even if you don’t divorce me, we will no longer be together. My thoughts are consumed by my deceased father. I can’t accept the man who caused my father’s death, the murderer from the Demon Palace.”

“I didn’t want this.”

“I wish I had died instead of them.”

“But I really can’t do it.”

“Why didn’t you think things through before you acted? Let’s part ways here. Take care of yourself. Your mother has already been sent to Tianyue Lake.”

Guo Yuqing turned away and walked towards others.

Su Zhan Ze still knelt on the ground, completely at a loss for what to do.

Just then, a person came out from behind. It was Ren Haotian, who had just overheard their conversation and said, “You have completely disgraced the Immortal City Sect.”

People from the Demon Domain pointed their fingers at Su Zhan Ze. If it weren’t for his interference, the Sea Demon would have been annihilated, and how could the Demon Palace have been breached? How could the Demon Domain have fallen into such a state? Of course, someone had to shoulder the blame.

Su Zhan Ze bowed his head, he had not anticipated the severity of the situation.

Su Zhan Ze found Yuan Jingxing, who also found it hard to believe Su Zhan Ze would do such a thing, yet he showed understanding.

Su Zhan Ze asked, “Were you released by people from the Dragon Slaying Clan, or was it Hu Nanyue who rescued you?”

Yuan Jingxing was surprised by the question and asked back, “Who said we were released by people from the Dragon Slaying Clan?”

“So, it was Hu Nanyue and his people who rescued you.”

“Yes, on the night the city was breached, the Demon Palace’s spies discovered our whereabouts, and while the Dragon Slaying Clan was on the mountain, they rescued us,” Yuan Jingxing looked at Su Zhan Ze.

Su Zhan Ze looked bewildered and said helplessly, “I was truly worried about your safety. At that time, Longhun captured my mother and Yu Qing on the mountain, and if I didn’t do it, he would have killed my mother and Qing’er. I had no choice.”

“Then why did you agree to help him?” It was, in fact, predictable.

Su Zhan Ze replied, “He said that if I did it, you would be released; otherwise, he would kill all of you.”

“How could you believe the words of that madman? His words are not trustworthy, and even if what he said was true, you shouldn’t have helped him. Do you realize how many people you have caused to die?”

“Yu Qing asked me to divorce her, saying she can’t be with me anymore.”

Yuan Jingxing comforted him with a word, saying, “Her father, he died in that incident, and many children from the Demon Palace are now fatherless orphans because of you.” He turned and swiftly moved away.

This left Su Zhan Ze alone.

He slammed his palm fiercely against the trunk of a tree. In that moment, no one could understand him; he despised that damned Longhun. Longhun had made it impossible for him to hold his head high again. No one would believe him now, nor did he have the face to confront these people.

He regretted it, but there had never been room for regret.

…

When Jing Po learned that Longhun wanted Su Zhan Ze to join the Dragon Slaying Clan instead of killing him, he found it incomprehensible. Longhun rarely took the trouble to recruit anyone to the Dragon Slaying Clan; he certainly wouldn’t bother so much, saying, “My Young Master, what’s so good about this Su Zhan Ze that you want to invite him into our Dragon Slaying Clan instead of killing him?”

“Why kill him? Am I such a cold-blooded person? He helped us break through the Demon Palace City, leaving the people of the Immortal Domain almost homeless,” Longhun said.

“But this person will never help our Dragon Slaying Clan. Even if you truly bring him in, he will be a double agent. It would be better to kill him.”

“Heh, you’re saying he won’t sincerely help us, right?”

“Of course, how could he possibly sincerely help us?”

“Right, I know that too, but I don’t need his sincere help, I just need to use him. There’s no point in discussing this now.”

Jing Po was somewhat puzzled and said, “He can still be of use?”

“Of course, it depends on how you use someone, even trash has its value.”

“But will he join us?”

“I don’t know.” Longhun walked towards Mitra Monk, with Shi Xueqin closely following behind him.

Dragon Soul asked, “Seeing the Demon Palace City turn into a wasteland, what are your thoughts?”

“They got what they deserved,” Shi Xueqin said.

“It seems you’re not far from becoming cold-blooded, while I think they’re quite pitiful.”

Shi Xueqin looked somewhat disbelieving and said, “Pitiful? Didn’t they kill our people just the same?”

“You see there are some old and weak among them, how can one be so cruel.” Dragon Soul turned to Jing Po and said, “Hurry up and bury these bodies. Do you really want to let wild dogs come and eat them? That would be too cold-blooded.”

“I rarely hear Brother Longhun (Dragon Soul) say such things.”

“I too have a compassionate heart; I wasn’t born this bad,” he said.

Shi Xueqin, of course, knew Dragon Soul was joking.

Dragon Soul said, “Alright, prepare to leave the Demon Palace City.”

“Are we going to have a decisive battle with them?” Shi Xueqin asked curiously.

“We would like to have a decisive battle, but they seem somewhat reluctant,” he replied.

“Then where have they hidden themselves?”

“We don’t know yet, maybe the Heavenly City Sect.”

“The Heavenly City Sect? Then we should hurry and block them,” she asserted.

“No rush, I have to meet Shangguan Heiqi first. Go and get ready, we’re heading down the mountain.”

Shi Xueqin nodded in agreement.

Mitra Monk approached him.

“Mitra Monk, what did Shangguan Heiqi say?”

Having greeted Dragon Soul, Mitra Monk answered, “He has agreed to meet with the Young Master.”

“It seems he also understands that he has no choice but to deal with us.”

“But there’s one thing I don’t know whether to tell you.”

“Speak your mind.”

Mitra Monk said, “They have not found the body of Ye Chen from the New City Sect at the foot of the mountain.”

“They didn’t find his body?” Dragon Soul was momentarily puzzled.

“Correct, it might have been eaten by vicious dogs.”

“Vicious dogs? No traces of any kind were found?”

“There was rain that night,” Mitra Monk continued, “Elder Xi Feng said that Ace Killer had hit him with a poison palm, and Shangguan Heiqi had gravely wounded him. Even if he fell and didn’t die, he wouldn’t have lived more than three days.”

Dragon Soul thought for a moment and asked, “Could he have been rescued by someone?”

Mitra Monk quickly replied, “Elder Xi Feng said no because he sent people down the mountain that same night. The disciples from the Demon Domain were not searching for him but left in a hurry, so it’s unlikely he was saved by anyone.”

Dragon Soul fell silent for a moment; then he nodded slightly and said, “Hmm, understood. Prepare to descend, leave Demon Palace City, and meet with Elder Xi Feng and the others.”

After Elder Xi Feng met with Shangguan Heiqi, the latter basically understood the current situation and knew that people from the Dragon Slaying Clan had destroyed the Demon Palace and Guo Mingyu had died.

Shangguan Heiqi, having no choice but to deal with the Dragon Slaying Clan, agreed to meet Dragon Soul. After all, they had to discuss whether they would leave each other alone or something else from now on.

All of these issues required negotiation.

Ace Killer, however, was very dissatisfied because they hadn’t found that guy’s body, and that damned old man hadn’t given them the antidote. He couldn’t swallow his pride and said, “Boss, this old man isn’t giving us the antidote; by seeing Dragon Soul, does he want to control us, to make us serve them like groveling dogs forever?”

Teng Yun’e heard this and, with a snort from his nostrils, said, “If they dare, don’t think a mere poison can control us.”

“Let’s see after meeting Dragon Soul,” Shangguan Heiqi, the boss, said. “In any case, we’ve already come out. It won’t take long before the Demon Domain is wiped out. In the future, we and the Dragon Slaying Clan will inevitably cross paths now and then. So we must meet. Moreover, we still need the antidote.”

“What if they don’t give us the antidote?” asked Ace Killer.

“Then I’ll see if he truly has the power to control us,” Shangguan Heiqi responded, with the Sky-shattering Hammer in his hand, which he feared no one.

Ace Killer said, “If they want to talk with us, they should give us the antidote first; otherwise, we shouldn’t listen to them.”

“Of course. If he thinks he can treat us like monkeys, no matter who he is, I won’t let him off,” Shangguan Heiqi declared.

“How did that guy’s body just disappear; could it really have been snatched away by dogs?” Teng Yun’e muttered to himself.

“Second brother, you should trust me. My poison isn’t something just anyone can cure. Even if the fall didn’t kill him, he wouldn’t have lived more than three days,” Ace Killer confidently stated.

“Of course, I trust the poison that third brother developed himself,” he acknowledged.
