Chapter 1595 – Delivering a Head
The sword’s hum was like a funeral dirge, and all of heaven and earth mourned alongside it.
Everyone stood there in a daze, rooted to the spot.
Liang Yunhu.
An Immortal Lord of the Dao of the Sword, a renowned expert of the White Reed Province, had been cut down in the blink of an eye!
And the one who killed him was just a Universe Realm Immortal!
“How is this…” Many of the onlookers found this difficult to believe.
Immortal Lords were first-rate experts of the Immortal Dao, and they could intimidate entire provinces. Countless lesser immortals looked up to them.
Who could have imagined that a young Universe Realm immortal would cut one down?
“How could he be so strong?” Some of the older-generation cultivators were completely dazed and thoroughly stunned.
Su Yi had attacked just twice.
First, he punched, forcing Liang Yunhu explosively back.
Immediately afterward, he stretched out his right hand, forcing all swords to submit, including Liang Yunhu’s sixteen flying swords.
With a final swing of his sleeves, he destroyed Liang Yunhu’s ultimate divine ability, Vertical Severing, and cleaved through all nine sword mountains.
In the end, Liang Yunhu couldn’t withstand this strike. The dense sword qi cut him to ribbons, like death by a thousand cuts! That bloody, tyrannical scene left even the Immortal Lords’ scalps numb with fright. Chills coursed down their spines.
“All swords beneath their heavens take me as their sovereign. In front of me, all shall bow!” someone murmured, repeating what Su Yi had said earlier and sinking into a lengthy daze.
Liang Wenyu and Fang Yourong were stunned.
Fang Han clenched his fists with excitement.
Xue Hongfeng sighed wistfully. How… could the word ‘ferocious’ be enough to describe Brother Su?
“Grand Elder!” Liang Zhibei let out a mournful cry. The rims of his eyes reddened.
The other Liang clansmen were similarly grief-stricken and enraged. This was their territory, yet their grand elder had been suppressed and killed in front of their guests. Who wouldn’t have been shocked? Who wouldn’t have been furious?
Su Yi stood beneath the dome of heaven, hands behind his back, and gazed down at the distant Liang Zhibei, “Offer up your head, and the Liang Family shall live to see another day.”
His voice was calm, but it boomed throughout heaven and earth.
“Impudent!” Liang Zhibei’s hair and beard bristled with fury. “I’ll cut you down here and now, you little wretch!”
Boom!
His sleeves billowed around him, and he soared into the firmament. An apricot-yellow formation flag appeared in his right hand.
He swung it through the air, and…
Whoosh!
The apricot-yellow flag lit up.
Throughout Mount Huang Liang, one formation shot forth after another, like long-dormant volcanoes erupting in rapid succession. Their power blanketed heaven and earth.
All of a sudden, thunder rumbled and lightning flashed throughout the surrounding area. Wind and flame ran rampant, and all manner of terrifying formations manifested as a flood of destructive power.
The Profound Origin Heaven-Severing Formation!
It was composed of sixty-four smaller Saint-level formations. When circulated with full force, its terrifying power could kill Immortal Lords.
The guests couldn’t help but gasp.
The Liang Family’s Profound Origin Heaven-Severing Formation was famous throughout the White Reed Province. Now they were seeing it with their own eyes, and it was indeed extraordinary.
Even the Immortal Lords felt powerful unease and a sense of impending crisis.
“Family Head, kill him! Avenge the grand elder!”
“Kill him!”
“Kill him!”
The Liang clansmen bellowed with rage and indignation, their voices shaking the heavens.
They could see that Su Yi was trapped within the Profound Origin Heaven-Severing Formation. There was no way he’d escape disaster!
“This is bad! Second Elder Liang Yuntao placed the Profound Origin Heaven-Severing Formation personally, and he even asked an expert of the Church of Supreme Oneness to assist him. Once trapped, not even Immortal Lords can escape!” Liang Wenyu felt a chill in his hands and feet.
Liang Yuntao was Liang Yunhu’s younger brother, as well as the strongest Immortal Lord in the Liang Family. Eight thousand years ago, he joined the Church of Supreme Oneness, one of the greatest factions in the Immortal Realm, as an elder.
Although Liang Yuntao was no longer in Liang Family territory, the formation he’d placed was still the Liang Family’s greatest killer weapon!
“What do we do now…?” Fang Yourong’s heart clenched.
Boom!
The immortal formation’s power surged explosively as it circulated. Its terrifying power encompassed the entire area.
As for Su Yi? He was indeed trapped inside. The formation’s power swept toward him from all sides, like a tidal wave or avalanche. It seemed it might envelop him at any time.
“Pure stubbornness.” Su Yi shook his head. He’d come prepared. Of course he knew about the Liang Family’s Profound Origin Heaven-Severing Formation!
Activate! Su Yi shouted inwardly.
Clang——!
The ringing of a bell suddenly filled the air. To the crowd, it was like wondrous, natural music.
But when it reached Liang Zhibei’s ears, it was as if primordial divine lightning had slammed into his soul. His mind buzzed, and the impact left him seeing stars. Even his vital energy practically dispersed!
After taking this hit, Liang Zhibei’s control of the Profound Origin Severing-Heavens Formation paused momentarily.
Su Yi seized this opportunity to streak through the air like a beam of flowing light and charge out of the formation.
Boom!
Sword qi rumbled, boomed, and scattered in all directions. Wherever he passed, the formation broke like paper window paneling.
When Liang Zhibei saw Su Yi escape from the bounds of the formation, he roared in fury and activated the apricot-yellow formation flag with all his might.
But then, that terrifying ringing filled the air once more. Everything went black before Liang Zhibei’s eyes, and he staggered backward.
It was then that everyone finally saw the source of the ringing clearly. It was a bronze Dao Bell, ancient, grand, and mottled with rust and the vestiges of countless years.
This was the Auspicious Divine Bell Su Yi had brought as a wedding gift! Prior to the Age of Fallen Immortals, it had been a supreme Immortal King-level treasure of the Endless Manifestations Sword Sect! It was among the hundred most wondrous treasures of the modern White Reed Province!
Boom!
A corner of the formation split and shattered into pieces. Su Yi shot through the opening, stretched out his hand, and drew it through the air.
A hundred-thousand-foot streak of sword qi rose and slashed at Liang Zhibei.
Liang Zhibei’s hair and beard bristled with anger. He immediately drew his spear and clashed with it head-on.
Clang!!!
The streak of sword qi exploded.

But Liang Zhibei was sent flying back, coughing up blood. The lapels of his clothes were stained red.
Before he’d even managed to steady himself, Su Yi shot toward him.
“Die!” Liang Zhibei shouted as if he’d gone mad, setting his essence, qi, and spirit ablaze. He swung his spear and met Su Yi’s strike head-on.
The force of the impact shook the entire stretch of heaven and earth, destroying everything on all sides.
Liang Zhibei was an Immortal Lord, and his cultivation wasn’t any weaker than Liang Yunhu’s. If anything, he was a bit stronger. When he fought with everything he had, putting his life on the line, it was easy to imagine how terrifyingly strong he was.
Not long ago, Su Yi would have had to borrow the Sword of the Nine Hells’ power and fight with everything he had to survive aagainst an Immortal Lord of Liang Zhibei’s level.
But now that he’d stepped into a unique, unprecedented Immortal Dao, his strength was far from what it had been before.
He swung his fist like an axe through rotten wood. In the blink of an eye, he’d shattered Liang Zhibei’s offensive, suppressing him in one fell swoop!!
Liang Zhibei’s hair was disheveled, and he roared repeatedly as he struggled to break free, but it was to no avail. Su Yi held him fast, and soon, his injuries piled on.
Liang Zhibei suddenly understood why, in the last moments before his death, Grand Elder Liang Yunhu had urged him to admit defeat.
This Universe Realm young man was just far too terrifying. There was no judging him by his cultivation base!
Boom!
A heaven-shaking impact rang out. Liang Zhibei was badly injured, and his spear flew from his grip. There was now a bowl-sized bloody hole in his chest.
Su Yi’s fist had punched right through his ribcage!
“Family Head!” The Liang clansmen’s eyes bulged as they cried out with grief.
Some of the higher-ups even rushed to their leader’s aid, only for him to shout, “Don’t come near me!”
His breathing was ragged, and his expression was bleak as he looked at Su Yi. “You said you wouldn’t implicate the rest of the Liang Family. Did you mean that?”
“Of course.” Su Yi nodded.
Liang Zhibei smiled bleakly. “Very well. My head is yours, but… before I die, might you tell me why someone like you would help Liang Wenyu?”
He was obviously unwilling, and confused. He didn’t want to die without answers.
Everyone in the Liang Family was wondering the same thing.
“Because of Fang Yourong,” said Su Yi.
Liang Zhibei was stunned, but a moment later, he understood. His expression was instantly incomparably conflicted. “So, it really is just as I predicted. That Bi’an Spirit Race woman really is a harbinger of disaster!!”
His voice shook the mountains and rivers, and it was tinged with dense rage and hatred.
Splurt!
A streak of sword qi exploded into being, taking his head clean off. Su Yi stretched out his hand and plucked it from the air.
Even in death, Liang Zhibei’s eyes were wide with hatred and fury. His head still dripped blood.
Family Head Liang had been decapitated!
The other Liang clansmen watched in a daze. They felt as if the heavens had crumbled around them, and they felt like breaking down.
The grand elder was dead. Now, the head of the family was dead too!
The Liang Family had lost both its Immortal Lords in a single day, and in their own territory at that. This blow… was unquestionably far too heavy!
Even the guests’ hearts quivered. Chills coursed through their bodies.
This was supposed to have been a day of celebration for the Liang Family. Guests had come from all over the Immortal Realm bearing gifts. Who could have imagined that this wedding banquet would end in the deaths of their leader and grand elder?
Liang Wenyu and Fang Yourong felt as if they were dreaming; it just didn’t seem real. Both of them stood there in a daze, silent and rooted to the spot.
Suddenly, someone bellowed, “Liang Wenyu, you caused this, you bastard! I’ll kill you!”
One of the Liang Family experts charged at Liang Wenyu, hatred and murderousness all over his face.
But before he got far, one of the family’s higher-ups blocked his path and bellowed, “Enough! Don’t seek out your own demise! No one is to take any further reckless action!”
Inwardly, the higher-up cursed the man out. Didn’t you see how the grand elder and family head died? Didn’t you see how the Profound Origin Heaven-Severing Formation was completely useless against him? How is attacking now any different from throwing your life away?
Su Yi disregarded all this.
He just tossed Liang Zhibei’s head to Liang Wenyu. “Take this. This is the second gift I’ve prepared for you today.”
Liang Wenyu shook from head to toe, as if awakening from a dream. He looked down at Liang Zhibei’s head, waves of emotion coursing through his heart. He’d completely lost his cool.
For years, he’d longed to avenge his parents both day and night!
But now that he held his uncle’s severed head in his hands, he felt empty. Does this count as avenging my parents?
“Big Brother Liang, why haven’t you thanked Senior Su yet?” Fang Yourong couldn’t help but remind him.
She was excited too, and waves of emotion coursed through her heart. She didn’t even realize that she’d changed how she referred to Su Yi.
Now, she called him “senior”, just like her little brother did!
