As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1611 - 425: Emperor Xi Xi’s Thrilling Escape After the Kill, Children Living Happily in Fengdu
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
The Divine Pattern of the Prison Lotus, enveloping the entire body, began to twist and slither back toward the Brow Niwan.
Once everything was done, Xi Xi released a deep sigh, securely grasping the Thunder Chess Piece at last.
"Time to slip away, time to slip away!"
"Killing the Martial Saint and then running, truly thrilling!"
…
…
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——
Snowflakes kept pouring down relentlessly.
As the mushroom formation deployed by Xi Xi slowly settled into calm.
The surging waves finally ceased their motion.
Only after that did Jin Taixui, Yun E, and Zhou Peng halt their advance.
Yun E gripped the white Thunder Chess Piece firmly in her hand.
Xi Xi had explained to her that this Thunder Chess Piece would enable teleportation back, allowing escape from the Martial Saint's chase.
However, a considerable amount of time had elapsed by now.
The mushroom formation had burst in a massive explosion, and the world-shattering aftereffects were on the verge of fading.
Still, Xi Xi had not made her return...
This sparked intense concern in Yun E's heart—could something terrible have happened to Xi Xi?
At that notion, Yun E's complexion turned ashen, her frame quivering faintly, barely managing to stay upright.
She felt a bit anxious, fearing that the enormous disturbance might draw the Grandmaster from the Heavenly Pill Divine Sect.
Rumors said the Sect's Grandmaster was a mighty Divine Tribulation Realm Cultivator.
Should such a powerhouse intervene...
Xi Xi might lack the chance to activate her teleportation!
"Sister Yun E, don’t worry, Xi Xi is quite crafty and she knows her limits, she’s very smart and can’t be in trouble."
Zhou Peng seemed remarkably composed, knowing Xi Xi inside out, and offered his words with a grin.
He even took the time to shove a couple of buns past his lips.
Yet Yun E ignored him completely.
Even Jin Taixui could no longer remain idle, rising to his feet as he prepared to rush back toward the blast site.
Zhou Peng quickly yanked him back: "Where are you going?"
"Going back to die?"
"I’m going to find Xi Xi," Jin Taixui declared gravely.
But right as Jin Taixui finished speaking.
Yun E let out a startled cry when the Thunder Chess Piece in her grasp vanished abruptly.
Moments later, it reformed as a swirling shadow, slowly sharpening into focus.
Xi Xi appeared drenched in steam, heat radiating from her form.
Upon arrival, Xi Xi collapsed onto the ground with a thud, the piled snow melting away to form a wide crater spanning several yards.
Her cheeks burned red, while the divinity and qi-blood around her pulsed and roiled wildly.
Xi Xi promptly crossed her legs and entered cultivation.
It looked like her cultivation base was on the brink of collapse, demanding immediate consolidation and breakthrough.
Yun E's eyes filled with joyful tears as she beheld Xi Xi's safe return, her anxiety finally lifting.
A faint smile crept across Jin Taixui's features.
Even the ever-stubborn Little Fatty Zhou Peng couldn't suppress a heavy breath of relief.
…
…
Rumble——!!!
Guangling Dao City!
The whole city shook violently in that instant.
The Grand Canal slicing through it erupted on the surface, waters thundering without end, unleashing a furious storm across the metropolis!
Heavenly Pill Divine Sect, Main Peak at the Mountain Gate.
Within a grand temple.
A colossal pill furnace rested atop the altar.
All at once, the furnace trembled fiercely.
A sharp crack split its exterior with a snap.
Smoke then drifted from the pill furnace, gradually shaping into an old man's silhouette suspended in the air.
"How dare they! To destroy this old man’s Human Head Toad Furnace!"
Fierce glints sparked in the elder's gaze.
He drifted to the temple's doorway, and as he peered outside, the Heaven and Earth Soul stirred to fury—in the distant sky thousands of feet up, dark clouds churned and lightning boomed, echoing the Divine Tribulation's ominous call.
The elder brushed aside the shifts in heaven and earth's intent, sending his Dao Soul sweeping forth to grasp the full events and circumstances in a flash.
His expression grew somber.
His Human Head Toad Furnace had detected the presence of supreme Human Medicine, prompting him to seize and claim it.
In the end, it cost him dearly.
The inky city and the black-robed figure seated with their back to humanity...
His Human Head Toad Furnace boasted elite peak-level might, and not even typical peak powers could overcome it. After all... the toad carried deadly poison!
But now...
It lay shattered, utterly defenseless.
"Damn it, this damn supreme Human Medicine... and her Protector! They all deserve to die!"
The elder's visage contorted in wild rage and frenzy.
He stamped repeatedly, sending the entire temple quaking without restraint.
"Die! They must die!"
"Destroyed this old man’s Human Head Toad Furnace! They must die!"
His thunderous bellows echoed on, pouring out endless wrath.
"This old man wishes he could immediately kill you, Human Medicine!"
The elder slammed his foot down, then swiftly reverted to the pill furnace form, fully mending the fissure upon it.
From the depths of his being.
No shame in that.
…
…
Boom——!
Boom——!
Air streams and clouds burst apart!
Mo City quivered lightly as serpentine gusts twisted madly, ravaging the nearby terrain nonstop—the earth caved in right away, webs of spiderweb cracks spidering outward everywhere.
Frightening beyond measure, the shockwave rings crushed through the atmosphere like expanding circles, layer upon layer whipping up tempests!
After what seemed like forever, the raging gales dispersed, and the fearsome Qi shaking Mo City gradually ebbed and quieted.
In the massive crater below, a battered, grotesquely warped pill furnace riddled with fractures rested at the bottom.
