Chapter 505: Escape from the Immortal King

"Mm! I understand, Grandfather... I’ll protect my...self... Ah..."

As the five colored ascension bridge disappeared together with Tushan Qing’s figure, Xiao Shou endured the sorrow of parting from a family member and spoke with a slight choked voice.

However, when he was saying the word "myself," a sharp blade suddenly pierced into him from behind, passing straight through his heart.

Only after instinctively finishing the word did Xiao Shou realize that something was wrong with his body. He cried out in pain, and in the next instant, his damaged heart meridian caused him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

He instinctively grabbed the blade protruding from his chest while simultaneously guiding his life force to maintain the vitality of his heart. Only then did his divine sense finally reveal the surrounding situation.

Tushan Shanhe’s body had been pinned to the land created by his grandfather. The Frostheart Fleeting Battleship had been completely damaged, broken into countless fragments. The cultivators lay scattered across the ground, their fates unknown, while dark-red blood soaked the earth.

Beside Tushan Shanhe stood a figure surrounded by immortal energy and marked with red mandala flower patterns.

The figure coldly said, "My younger brother, Chenyin... actually died at the hands of a bunch of trash like you... How laughable."

"Lord Chenhan, please accept my condolences."

Not far away, Yu Lin wore a terrified expression as she carefully tried to console him.

Chenhan, whose entire body was filled with killing intent and grief, glared at Yu Lin and angrily shouted, "Shut up! If you hadn’t delayed us, how could my younger brother have died at the hands of this bunch of trash? He didn’t even leave behind a trace of immortal soul or immortal spirit. If my master hadn’t ordered me to bring you back, I would really want to chop you into minced meat right now..."

"I’m... I’m sorry..."

Yu Lin was filled with regret.

She could not understand why every time she became involved with Fu Young, she was always the unlucky one.

At the same time, however, a trace of delight secretly rose within her heart.

This was good.

She absolutely did not believe that this little wretch Xiao Shou could still escape from the hands of an Immortal King.

She was doomed.

Once Xiao Shou died, she wanted to see how that arrogant brat, who looked down on everyone and cared only about him, would suffer.

That’s right. The original story had mentioned that Chenhan and Chenyin were biological brothers who were inseparable. Since Chenyin had been here, how could Chenhan possibly not come?

She had actually been so careless as to forget about his existence.

Damn it...

Xiao Shou had no time to wonder why Yu Lin was here, nor did he have time to feel fear or terror.

He did not even have time to worry about Little Baibei’s safety, Tushan Shanhe’s condition, or what had happened to everyone else.

At this moment, he had only one thought.

How could he save himself from the hands of this Immortal King, who was even stronger than Chenyin?

However, before he could think of an answer, or rather, even faster than he could think, a curved saber-shaped immortal weapon had already appeared before him.

Under his terrified and desperate gaze, the curved sword-shaped immortal weapon...

Carrying endless immortal power and killing intent, the curved sword-shaped immortal weapon mercilessly slashed toward his neck.

In an instant, the sword energy shattered his defenses and cut into his neck. He seemed to hear the sound of his cervical bones breaking, and could even imagine his head flying into the sky as his headless corpse collapsed to the ground.

The attack was simply too fast. He had no time to react at all.

So while he was creating Eternal Darkness, his grandfather had actually been fighting such a terrifying enemy?

How could anyone defeat an opponent like that?

No!

How could he even protect his own life under such an opponent?

There was no time...

There was no time for anything anymore.

Just as Xiao Shou felt that his neck was about to be completely severed and realized that it was already too late, Yao Heng, who had remained in her original form and been hidden within his hair bun while undergoing evolution, seemed to sense that her master was in a desperate situation.

The crystal-clear little flower trembled as its power of time and space surged.

A tiny humanoid figure appeared. It was Yao Heng.

Having awakened, Yao Heng wore a serious expression on her little face. With a flash of her wings, she appeared above Xiao Shou’s head.

At the same time, she clasped her hands together as though praying to a deity and shouted, "Time Domain, activate. Time Stop!"

In an instant, the curved sword-shaped immortal weapon slashing toward Xiao Shou and Tushan Shanhe’s neck, Chenhan, whose entire body was filled with killing intent, and even Yu Lin, whose face was filled with terror and secret delight, all froze in place.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Shou’s mind seemed to work exceptionally quickly in this critical moment. He immediately understood what had happened.

He hurriedly supported his nearly severed neck with one hand and struck the sharp blade embedded in his heart with his other palm.

While mobilizing his life force to accelerate the regeneration of both wounds, he said, "Yaoyao, you woke up at exactly the right time. You really saved me. Thank you. If it weren’t for you... I would have..."

"Master, this isn’t the time to say these things. That person is too powerful. My Time Domain can’t hold for long. I feel like it will be broken in the next moment. You need to escape quickly."

Yao Heng was completely different from her usual playful and adorable self. Her little face was filled with seriousness, and there was even a faint trace of determination to sacrifice herself.

Hearing this, Xiao Shou immediately understood.

His wounds had already regenerated completely at an accelerated rate, allowing him to move again.

Without thinking any further, he immediately flew toward the fallen Tushan Shanhe.
