Chapter 2157 - 2157 His Good Friend, Su Li

2157 His Good Friend, Su Li

It was fortunate Duan Ling Tian was not here. He would have been horrified if he saw the young man attacked the middle-aged man. This was because he knew these two people. Not only that, but he knew they were master and disciple.

The young man who was covered in pure Devil Qi looked extremely evil. He was Su Li, a very good friend of Duan Ling Tian when he was young.

Duan Ling Tian could still remember the first time they met. It was at the camp for prodigies in Iron Blood City of Crimson Sky Kingdom. Back then, both of them were in their teens. Later on, both of them passed the test in the camp for prodigies and entered the Paladin Academy of the Crimson Sky Kingdom in the Imperial City.

At that time, in the Imperial City, the Su Clan from the Crimson Sky Kingdom wanted to kill Duan Ling Tian. They had even used the lives of Su Li’s immediate family to threaten Su Li into submission. However, Su Li truly valued their friendship and refused to hurt Duan Ling Tian. Eventually, he chose not to betray Duan Ling Tian.

After leaving a letter for Duan Ling Tian, Su Li left the Imperial City. It could be considered as him giving up his bright future! At the very least, that was how Duan Ling Tian saw it. Ever since then, Duan Ling Tian regarded Su Li as one of his good friends.

After that, the next time Duan Ling Tian met Su Li was at the Genius Competition organized by the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom. Following that, at Darkstone Empire, he and Su Li had also qualified to participate in the Darkhan Dynasty’s Martial Competition. Both of them shone brightly in the competition and advanced to the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties. Throughout the journey, their friendship and bond grew indestructibly strong.

After the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties ended, a lot had happened. First, Duan Ling Tian found himself in conflict with the Blade Sect which Su Li had joined. Later on, when he wanted to look for Su Li, he found out that Su Li had left the Blade Sect with his master. From then on, he had never seen Su Li again.

On the other hand, Su Li’s master was known as Sword 13. He was the middle-aged man that Su Li had hunted down.

Previously, Sword 13 was the second strongest person in Blade Sect’s House of Sword. Later on, he left Blade Sect because he could not accept how Blade Sect had treated Duan Ling Tian. In despair, he and Su Li left Blade Sect and began their wandering lives ever since.

At the moment, when Su Li waved his hand and the sound of a sword cry appeared...

A soft noise sounded before Sword 13 trembled for a brief moment before he stopped struggling. Following that, he grunted softly as he struggled to turn around to look at Su Li. There was a fine cut that was rapidly deepening on his throat. It was a deadly sword wound.

As blood gushed out from the wound, Sword 13 exhausted the last of his strength and said to Su Li who had a cold expression on his face, “Your... Your name is Su Li... You are hu... Human... Not... Not... a Devil...”

Before Sword 13 could finish speaking, his eyes closed and his body fell to the ground. The odd part was that he had died with a contented smile on his face.

Prior to this, Sword 13 probably did not think he would die in the hands of his direct disciple, Su Li. However, based on his expression when he died, it could be seen that he did not blame Su Li for his death. His only source of comfort for many years had been Su Li. As for why he was contented even in death, only he alone knew the reason.

“I... I’m... Su Li? I... am... a hu... human?”

When Sword 13 closed his eyes and fell to the ground with a contented smile, Su Li seemed to change as the bloodlust in his eyes lessened. Then, he held his head with both his hands as his expression twisted in pain. He kept muttering to himself as though he was being tortured.

As time passed, the bloodlust in Su Li’s eyes completely disappeared. When that happened, the pure Devil Qi surging from his body disappeared as well. In just a moment, it seemed as though he had transformed into another person. Currently, he looked like a polite and handsome young man.

Suddenly, Su Li let out a painful howl. “Master!” He landed by Sword 13’s side and kneeled on the ground. His body was trembling violently due to the turmoil of emotions. Tears were streaming down his face.

Su Li vaguely remembered what had happened earlier. However, at that time, he was being controlled by the pure Devil Qi. He could not gain control of his body and could only watch as he killed his master. It was only when he heard his master’s broken sentence that he found the strength to struggle and regained control of his body after temporarily suppressing the pure Devil Qi.

“Master, wait for me at the entrance to Heaven... I’m coming to accompany you!” Su Li could sense he was about to lose control of the pure Devil Qi so he quickly turned his sword on himself at lightning speed.

Xiu!

Su Li stabbed his heart at lightning speed. The force was so strong that the sword pierced through his body.

Under such circumstances, one would usually bleed profusely. However, that did not happen. Instead, a strange thing happened!

Although Su Li had stabbed himself in his own heart with so much force that the sword pierced through the other side of his body, he did not shed a single drop of blood. It was as though he had missed.

Su Li’s eyes widened in shock and disbelief.

Boom!

In just an instant, the pure Devil Qi surged out from his body, making him look like one of the Devils. At this moment, his eyes were filled with bloodlust again.

Another soft noise rang in the air. This time it came from Su Li. It was the sound the sword made when he pulled it out of his chest. Even at this time, not a drop of blood could be seen at all. The wound from the sword closed as soon as he pulled it out. It was as though he was never injured at all. He was currently like an undying evil Immortal.

Bang!

As the Devil Qi surged out, Su Li whose eyes were brimming with bloodlust stomped his feet and rose up into the air. A strong explosion of Devil Qi appeared in his wake.

Su Li did not only blew up the place where he was at, but he had also blown up Sword 13’s body!

Meanwhile, Su Li flew away and disappeared from sight.

All this happened in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land that was currently overrun by Devils.

Duan Ling Tian who was in the pseudo realm created by three Eminent Devils in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land was unaware of what had happened to his good friend, Su Li. If he knew about it, he would have been worried sick. After all, he considered Su Li as one of his best friends.

Not only was Duan Ling Tian unaware of what had happened, but he also did not know Su Li had become like that due to the legacy left behind by these three Eminent Devils.

The pseudo realm the three Eminent Devils left behind in the Upper Province was just a trap without treasures. Their treasures and legacies were left in the Mortal Continent where they used to stay.

That Mortal Continent was Duan Ling Tian’s hometown, the Cloud Continent!

Their legacy was obtained by Su Li. It changed Su Li completely, turning him into a Devil!

As for the treasures they had left behind, the most precious one was a Super Saint Weapon. It was the three-feet-long blade Su Li held in his hand earlier. It was none other than the Traceless Sword!

The Traceless Sword was one of the Super Saint Weapons on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking. It was also one of the two 10,000 Inscriptions Saint Swords that still existed in the Dao Martial Saint Land.

Outside the pseudo realm where Duan Ling Tian trapped...

A tall and sturdy figure appeared in front of an opening that was slowly closing.

It was an almost naked old man whose body was covered in horrifying wounds and cuts. All of the wounds looked deep and extremely painful.

The old man was gasping for breath. He was visibly exhausted. It seemed as though he had exhausted all of his strength.

Although there were many people standing near him, all of them only gasped inwardly when they saw the state the old man was in.

No one dared to make a sound.

God! What did they just see?

The Great Oracle from the Heaven Divination Sect, Mo Xuan, the third strongest person on the Supreme Saint Ranking, a peerless powerhouse, was so badly injured after coming out from the trap set up by three Eminent Celestials!

One should know that without using Saint Weapons, the defensive Divine Ability from Heaven Divination Sect that Mo Xuan had mastered was the best defensive Divine Ability in the Dao Martial Saint Land! In fact, it was not an exaggeration to say that Mo Xuan had the best defense in the entire Dao Martial Saint Land!
