Chapter 1269: What Was Seen in the Past
The one who launched the sneak attack from behind was none other than Qi Jiaoyao.
Yao Liu seemed to realize something. “It’s you!”
It might have been better had he said nothing. The moment he spoke, Qi Jiaoyao stopped holding back. With a twist of the sword in her hand, she shredded Yao Liu’s chest cavity into a mangled ruin.
The words Yao Liu had yet to finish would never be spoken.
However, Yao Liu left no corpse behind. Instead, he turned into dust and scattered with the wind.
Seeing this, Qi Xuansu could not help but ask, “Is he dead or not?”
“He’s dead,” Qi Jiaoyao said, curling her lips. “But not completely dead. Just as you said, nothing here truly dies.”
Qi Xuansu did not pursue the matter further. With Yao Liu dealt with, there were no more obstacles, unless the Earthly Preceptor himself appeared.
They could now proceed all the way toward the summit of Lingshan.
Before long, Qi Xuansu began to feel that the surroundings were strangely familiar.
This was a place he had once visited in a dream.
A sudden thought arose in Qi Xuansu’s mind. Could Shi Hengbo be here? After all, she is Elder Yao’s disciple and a participant in the Creation Project.But that’s unlikely, since this isn’t the Longevity Stone Heart’s dream realm.
