CHAPTER 449: CHAPTER 275: THE INHERENT TALENT TO ROAST OTHERS_3

The chubby little face revealed a sinister smile, it had been many years, yet this was the first time someone had the audacity to provoke her like this.

Uncontrollable irritation flashed in her eyes. The truth often hurts the most, just as Cen Zhuangzhuang said. Ever since she was caught red-handed by Liu Jian two hundred years ago, she spent her entire life unable to break through the major barrier of the Body Integration Realm.

Not only was her physical body completely shattered, her flesh and blood permanently suppressed, but her Heart of Dao was also fractured. This life, for the first time, she experienced despair, a despair that made her lose the will to resist whenever the other party stood before her.

Originally, she thought that with Liu Jian’s death, the shadows over her Heart of Dao would gradually dissipate. To this end, she deliberately appeared, seeking everywhere for that newly appointed Sword Immortal Liu Tangxi, with an attitude of avenging her grievances and sweeping away the shadows.

But as it turned out...

"Little one, I will drain every drop of blood from your body, even your bones—I will pull them out one by one and suck them dry, gick gick gick~"

Her face bore madness.

Clearly, Cen Zhuangzhuang was naturally gifted in irritating people. Throughout the whole process, he didn’t curse once, yet he managed to infuriate this senior figure in the Cultivation World, making her face flush on the spot.

Every sentence peeled back her wounds.

She truly didn’t dare.

She originally thought that with Liu Jian’s death and the tree fallen, the monkeys would scatter. She specifically came to the Central Plains in search of revenge, inquired about the name of the surviving disciple of Swordmaster Peak and sought him out.

Hearing that this little girl known as Liu Tangxi was emulating her master, performing righteous deeds, slaying demons and exorcising evil spirits, she was thrilled. Thus, following the information, she set out, but before even seeing the person...

She saw a mountain.

A Sword Mountain.

The mountain loomed a thousand zhang high, Tangxi on its summit, thrusting downwards, suppressing the Demon Cultivator who was several times stronger than herself under Sword Mountain, never to be reincarnated, to be tormented day and night by Sword Qi, enduring the agony of a thousand arrows piercing the heart.

From the moment she saw that terrifying feat, and smelled that familiar Sword Qi, she realized.

Liu Jian’s sword had not disappeared, but instead, hung forever over her head. Should she dare to show her face, that sword would surely fall and precisely sever her head.

Ever since then, she fully concealed her whereabouts, never daring to leave the mountain by half a step, but this was always not a solution. You must know, the last time she was nearly destroyed, body and Divine Soul, by Liu Jian. If not for the uniqueness of Blood Cultivation which allowed for rebirth, she would have long become a pile of rotten flesh.

About five years ago, there came a turning point.

In an uninhabited area in the north of the Central Plains, she accidentally killed disciples from two fighting sects. Out of curiosity, she used the Blood Refining Skill to refine their flesh and souls completely. Their cultivation was not high, but they were enough to sate her hunger.

Unexpectedly among these disciples, someone possessed information about a secluded Grotto Heaven.

Since then, she began to search everywhere for this Grotto Heaven’s whereabouts, capturing disciples from noble families, accumulating intelligence continuously, until, half a year ago, she made a decision.

Since her foundation was damaged and there was no hope of breakthrough in this life, why not destroy in order to rebuild?

Thus, she dispersed her cultivation, suppressing her realm below Divinity Transformation, believing that as long as she could find a good opportunity within the Cave Heaven Secret Realm, why worry about not being able to cultivate back to her former state?

Furthermore, such cultivation wouldn’t attract the attention of others. Originally, she planned to take advantage of the gathering of sect disciples in East Liang City, continuing to capture a few direct descendants for interrogation, and after refining them, obtaining more information.

The best case would be to transform into one of them and infiltrate their sect. Little did she expect, this twenty-something looking youngster was so difficult to deal with.

"Today, after I catch you, I will savor absorbing every inch of your flesh and blood, and finally take on your appearance to enter your family..."

"Majestic heavenly might, my imperial command, Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, with the sword as guide, Slash!"
