Chapter 2128: One More Fight—Do You Dare?
On the other side, the Holy Ancestor Tian Xin, who had already retreated far away, opened his mouth in disbelief and stammered, "Su Old Demon?"
Still on Little Su Mountain, Su Beiheng gently kissed Ye Wuyan’s forehead and said, "Wu Yan, Pei Kuang has finally come. I must finish this one last task and I’ll be back with you soon."
After speaking, he stepped out of Little Su Mountain and stood high above the sword array in mid-air.
He glanced at the praying people surrounding Beiwu City, smiled slightly, and then disappeared as a streak of sword light.
When he reappeared, he was already beside Sikong Jing...
Immediately, he took another step forward in mid-air, standing before Sikong Jing and gazing at Pei Kuang and Lady Li outside the array.
Su Beiheng calmly spoke, "Pei Kuang, let’s fight another round!"
Crackling...
At this moment, Pei Kuang no longer had the composure and calmness he had when facing Sikong Jing. He stared intensely at the suddenly appearing Su Beiheng, his fists clenched so tightly they made a crackling sound.
He was too shocked. Could it be that the Su Old Demon was truly still alive?
Finally, after several breaths, Pei Kuang couldn’t help but roar in a low voice, "Su Beiheng, were you pretending to be dead here waiting for me all along?"
Now, of course, Pei Kuang’s first thought was that...
The Su Old Demon had been pretending to be dead, wanting the whole world to believe he had died, given his life for love, and then awaited his moment to break the Beiheng Sword Formation.
Unlike Pei Kuang, Su Beiheng remained expressionless, only shaking his head lightly.
"You’re wrong; I had already died at that time."
"But you’re also right. Before dying, I cast the Soul Returning Technique on myself. When you appeared, I would return, and the Mind Spirit Shadow I left within my corpse would merge back with my body."
"I was waiting for you... How can my descendants live peacefully without killing you?"
Saying this, Su Beiheng was already emanating an intensely strong sword intent, seemingly drawing the entire Beiheng Sword Formation directly towards Pei Kuang, forcing the latter to retreat unconsciously...
Not only did he retreat, but Lady Li also retreated, and their exquisite Divine Shuttle Ship was frantically retreating as well.
At the same time, Sikong Jing behind Su Beiheng was still in a daze.
He unknowingly had ceased his demonization. Even he didn’t quite react, equally astonished.
And Su Beiheng just gave a slight smile...
"Pei Kuang, my defeated foe from my youth, you imprisoned me in the One Claw Domain for decades, making me unable to cultivate. You’ve had decades more cultivation than I, yet are you still afraid to fight me?"
"Why are you retreating? In our youth, you dared not fight, only dared to label me a Demon, do you still dare not now?"
"I am now only at the beginning of the Holy Martial stage. Are you truly afraid?"
With Su Old Demon’s words, Pei Kuang’s expression, in his continuous retreat, gradually twisted. This was the greatest scar of his life, just as it’s spoken of throughout the Central Plains...
When people speak of him as the best in the world, they inevitably mention Su Old Demon.
And this is his inner shadow. Pei Kuang fears, he fears losing to Su Old Demon again.
So he desperately wanted to unlock the Heavenly Pattern Treasure Golden Crystal Ball in his hand. He wanted to learn more powerful skills to sweep the world, so everyone remembers only him, Pei Kuang, and no longer the three words "Su Old Demon."
And now, Su Old Demon has reappeared here, dead or alive, showing himself in front of him.
At this time, Su Beiheng said again: "If you don’t dare, you can fight with the woman beside you; I don’t care."
Such words were like a terrible needle, piercing Pei Kuang’s heart fiercely.
Why only now did he dare to approach the Beiheng Sword Formation, when, logically, given his hatred, he should have come sooner?
Why didn’t he dare go to Willow Leaf Saint Manor earlier and bring Su Zhenglong’s family back to Qianwang Holy Tower to torture them?
It’s because Pei Kuang feared, he feared Su Beiheng was still alive.
Only after Lady Li stood by his side did he dare come, and Su Beiheng’s words seemed to tear open his scar and sprinkle salt upon it.
All of his composure before Su Beiheng was an act.
As the Qianwang Tower Master, he cannot let anyone see the inferiority and fear he feels inside when facing Su Beiheng.
When Pei Kuang decided to come to the Beiheng Sword Formation, he was somewhat nervous, and when he saw Beiheng Sword Formation, he was also nervous. That’s why he initially spoke, spreading his voice across the entire Canglong Small Domain to build confidence.
That’s why he needed Lady Li to find a way, to destroy the Beiheng Sword Formation...
Clenching his teeth, Pei Kuang suddenly shouted, "Who said I don’t dare? Su Beiheng, you’re nothing but a dead man."
After saying this... Boom!
Pei Kuang’s entire body suddenly erupted with True Qi, at the peak level of the third Great Realm of the Holy Martial stage. His explosive power surged towards the direction of the Beiheng Sword Formation, followed by streams of golden sword light manifesting behind him...
This battle had to happen. Only by defeating Su Beiheng could he erase the shadow in his heart.
At the same time, beside him, Lady Li’s eyes flashed with a cold gleam as she said, "So this was what Little Demon Sikong meant. He drove away the Holy Ancestor Tian Xin to leave Su Old Demon facing only the two of us..."
"Is this Su Old Demon really that formidable? He’s only just entered the Holy Martial stage."
Lady Li certainly misunderstood. In fact, Sikong Jing also didn’t know his Grandpa Su had such abilities.
Sikong Jing just intended to demonize.
At this moment, with a lowered voice, Pei Kuang replied, "Madam, never underestimate Su Beiheng... but for now, don’t take action. I want to personally erase Su Beiheng, this wretch. Unless absolutely necessary, don’t intervene."
This was something he said with all his strength. He really didn’t want Lady Li to help him.
But if he couldn’t win, of course, Lady Li would have to step in.
And while Pei Kuang and Lady Li were talking, Sikong Jing also finally had a chance to speak, "Grandpa Su, you..."
At this moment, Sikong Jing was still in shock, completely unprepared for Grandpa Su’s reappearance in the world.
For a moment, he didn’t know what to say. At the same time, the demonic aura on him was gradually dissipating.
At this time, Su Beiheng slowly turned around and patted Sikong Jing lightly on the shoulder.
A pure and powerful True Qi suddenly flowed into Sikong Jing’s body, quickly dissipating his demonic power, suppressing even the Blood Devouring power within him...
This made Sikong Jing involuntarily reveal his surprise, opening his mouth to say, "Grandpa Su, why?"
Hearing this, Su Beiheng showed a kind smile...
"Ajing, although I don’t know where your terrifying Demon Intent came from, and I don’t know what you will become after demonizing, you cannot use such power now."
"I guess this power can only be used once or twice, right? It shouldn’t be wasted now."
Listening to these words, Sikong Jing couldn’t help but widen his eyes slightly, as Grandpa Su had guessed correctly.
The Pure Spirit Heart protects the undying consciousness after demonizing, indeed leaving only two opportunities, but why shouldn’t it be wasted?
As long as Pei Kuang is slain, it wouldn’t be a waste...
