709: Chapter 182_3 709: Chapter 182_3 Qing did not panic but delighted instead.

From the beginning of the fight until now, it had always been about calculation and surprise attacks.

If it was a real battle, facing ten Stepping Sky Six-fold masters simultaneously, he couldn’t possibly be an opponent.

The remaining four were exceedingly cautious.

Another surprise attack was no longer possible.

But those four were traumatized by a sword strike from Su Huanian, no longer daring to hold back, iron chains crisscrossed, sealing the space while their bodies transformed into prison guard clothes.

The sentence was pronounced: “Zang!”

All four shouted in unison as four bronze Ges appeared, slicing forward, severing Qing’s vision in the unseen realm.

As the punishment descended, darkness enveloped Qing’s field of view.

He roared, marshaling the Power of Xuanwu within his body; a Xuanwu Phantom materialized behind Qing, and the Turtle-snake opened its mouth to bellow in tandem.

A great wave surged, instantly shredding the darkness; the scene before his eyes became brilliantly clear.

Qing stepped forward, merging with the Xuanwu Phantom, and urgently cried out: “Don’t!”

This shout contained the Heavenly Charter; the moment the word “burst” was uttered, it seemed to mobilize the might of heaven and earth, a subtle force descended.

The bronze Ges that the four had formed, along with the eight iron chains, shattered in an instant, turning their faces instantly pale as blood sprayed from their mouths.

Their vitality swiftly diminished.

Holding the true power of Xuanwu within oneself, compared to being pulled by the True Martial Divine God Statue to wield a sliver of the Power of Xuanwu—the difference in might was day and night!

Moreover, this shout did not require True Yuan; this was authority!

An authority exclusive to the Four Sacred Beasts!

The faces of the four changed dramatically, and they turned to flee.

Qing’s long chant resonated as the Mountain Divine God Seal struck one person’s back, toppling him with a stamp, soon followed by five continuous Mountain Divine God Seals falling like beads from a string.

Heavenly Punishment descended, closely following the Mountain Divine God Seal’s assault.

Inside the grand hall, Su Huanian leaped out, pointing his sword, a streak of Sword Light shooting forward, turning into a White Snake mid-flight, instantly entwining one person.

With a twist, that person was reduced to fragments.

Turning their heads, they saw that the other two had already used the blood shield technique to vanish.

Stepping Sky Six-fold experts, once they set their hearts on escape, even faced with Stepping Sky Seven-fold could have a chance to break away.

There was no point in pursuit.

Su Huanian turned to look at Qing: “Is anything the matter?”

As she asked, her hand was already placed on Su He’s Shell, her Divine Sense unceremoniously delving inside.

The few punches that landed on the Netherworld Passage, directed at those three people earlier, truly struck Netherworld Passage, and by extension, onto Qing.

To physically endure several punches from a Stepping Sky Six-fold, without the protection of an External Appearance, his internal organs were already injured.

Qing shook his head; his internal organs had been in an injured state for some time now, having been harmed by an elder of the Prison Clan inside White Tiger Prison and caught by the Temple Guards of Yuan Sovereign as per White Spirit and Baiyin’s planning, then pinched by a thief, injuring his internal organs once more.

Not to mention the fight with the Big Witch.

Qing realized that while the Dragon Turtle’s external defense was robust, the defense of its internal organs was much weaker, and he would need to think of a way to enhance his internal defenses.

Study the External Appearance to create an Internal Appearance?

Qing exhaled a breath of air, pitying that Phoenix True Fire could not be used to heal the injuries of the Dragon Turtle True Form, and the Spirit Snake was also somewhat damaged by that stomp.

The Spirit Snake flickered, settling on the Dragon Turtle Shell, slowly lying down, and began to meander around the Dragon Turtle, a harmonious Tai Chi force rising within both the Turtle and Snake simultaneously as the injuries gradually mended.

Xuanwu, infinitely wondrous in its uses!

Su Huanian slowly withdrew her hand, softly saying, “Ya Ya has been sealed.

If nothing goes awry, she is sealed in that prison of yours.”

Su Huanian was merely in seclusion and had not completely shut out external information.

There were always those who harbored designs on the grand hall, bringing in various news from the outside world.

Qing’s brow furrowed slightly, and his Scale Armor screeched as he thought: Ji Feixue, that woman, could it be she has fallen victim to human schemes as well?

Prison cage…

Baiyin?

The only prison cage Su He could think of was that one.

No, wait a moment!

Su He suddenly turned his head, staring at Su Huanian in astonishment, “How do you know I have a prison cell?” The prison cell was obtained in ancient times and hadn’t been brought back yet, not even the toad knew about it!

With a slight lift at the corners of his mouth, Su Huanian responded, “When I was slaying Yuan Lang, I saw the interaction between you and Baiyin.”

Su He was taken aback, his expression changing instantly, “Tan Tai?

You now…”

Su Huanian placed a hand over his mouth and gently shook her head, “My love, rest assured, it’s not possession, nor confusion of identities, I am still myself.

It’s just that, during this secluded meditation, I remembered some things from past lives.

Moreover, Tan Taifeng is Su Huanian, and Su Huanian is Tan Taifeng.

Just like the husband from a previous life, and the current husband.

The bodies are entirely different, but both are my husband.

Even through reincarnation, it is still you!”

She looked up at Su He, meeting his gaze without a hint of timidity.

Su He blinked, and after a while, he finally asked, “You…

what memories have you recalled?”

With an amused glance at him, Su Huanian gently embraced the dragon head, “No need for verbal probing, it’s not about recovery…

it’s about remembering!

From the moment you crossed time back to ancient times and woke up in the Baiyun Palace, to the moment you and Green Flower parted ways and left.

I have memories of the times I was with you.”

Su He was startled, his mouth agape, suddenly feeling somewhat at a loss.

He had the entire set of memories from that period, but during that time, he was with Baiyin and had little contact with Tan Tai.

“That…

I…”

Su Huanian once again covered his mouth and gently shook her head, “Even though I recalled these memories and wanted to hit you, I’ve given my blessing to Baiyin…

to White Spirit.

She has sacrificed too much for you…”

With that, she suddenly smiled, “Now that past and present lives have merged, do you have any regrets, my lord?”

Su He knew what Su Huanian was asking about.

Baiyin’s brand was in his past life’s body, so in ancient times, Su He naturally felt affection for Baiyin.

Now that the fusion was complete, the brand had dissipated…

But when Su He closed his eyes, the image of that cheerful, free-spirited girl appeared in his mind.

To say deep roots of affection had been planted was impossible.

But to say there were no feelings at all…

that would be a bolt from the blue!

Su He lowered his head and was silent for a moment, “She lied to me, the brand is still there.”

With a charming smile, Su Huanian said, “Let’s go, let’s first try to set free that dragon.”

The brand that remained in his body had long since faded.

But who wouldn’t carry the brand in their heart upon seeing that unrestrained, free-spirited young woman?

“Daddy!

Daddy!

Save the master, please!” Ya Ya hopped out from the main hall, her eyes shining like little stars as she looked at Su He.

Daddy is so powerful!

He must be able to save the master!

On Ya Ya’s back, the toad was looking sleepy and yawned.

Su He turned his head towards the west, where four towering auras were clashing in battle.

Two of them were familiar to Su He.

One was the Crown Prince of the Sealed Emperor Palace, the other was a Zhanxiu.

The remaining two were unknown to him.

But from the auras sensed, it seemed to be a two-on-two situation, with the Zhanxiu at a disadvantage, though for the time being, there was no immediate danger.

“We’ll save your aunt first!” Su He looked up into the high sky.

Even though countless layers of clouds obscured the view, one could still see the grand battle happening above the Nine Heavens, in a place far beyond reach.

There were scrolls pressing down upon the world, yet there were behemoths tearing through the scrolls.

There were long spears piercing through the void, and Phoenix cries that shook the Nine Heavens.

In the battle with the Seal Emperor, the Mystery Huang World was at a disadvantage.
