Chapter 838: Chapter 72: Torturing Cheng Qingyu to Death

"Little Ape, today is your fifth birthday, this jade pendant is for you."

"Susu jie, I’m already six years old!"

"Haha, close enough, you’re still a little brat!"

"Susu jie, my mom says that apart from the Saintess, you’re the most beautiful person on Cyan Lotus Mountain, I want to marry you!"

"Hah, you little brat, how old are you? You need to be an adult to get married!"

"Susu jie, then wait for me to grow up! When I grow up, I’ll marry you!"

"Alright, I’ll wait for you, haha!"

"Susu jie, you aren’t lying to me, are you? Do you know what my real name is?"

"Huh? Aren’t you called Little Ape?"

"That’s my nickname! Susu jie, you really are lying to me!"

Liu Su stood in front of the small grave, looking at the broken jade pendant in her hand, her eyes slightly red.

"How dare you, servant! I am the descendant of the Ancient Divine Phoenix, and you dare treat me like this?! I... ah!"

Cheng Qingyu roared furiously, as Liu Su stomped her into the ground. Cheng Qingyu’s body once again emitted black flames, but countless small black holes appeared around her, sucking away all the black flames.

"You, you..."

Cheng Qingyu’s eyes were about to burst, but her head was firmly stomped down by Liu Su, unable to move.

"Back then on Cyan Lotus Mountain, there were many innocent children like Little Ape, all slaughtered by you."

"Miss has already killed all disciples of the Three Great Sects who visited Cyan Lotus Mountain in West Imperial City, leaving only you. Do you know why?"

Liu Su stomped Cheng Qingyu’s head, bending down, her voice icy cold:

"Because I promised Little Ape, at his grave, to let him personally see how his enemies die!"

Cheng Qingyu finally felt a hint of fear, using all her strength to lift her head from the dirt:

"My father is the Sect Leader of Zhenyang Sect! If you kill me, he won’t spare you!"

She hadn’t finished speaking when ten small black holes flew over, encircling her ten fingers.

Cheng Qingyu’s body stiffened, and in the next moment, as the ten small black holes left, her ten fingers were gone.

Cheng Qingyu stared dumbly at her hands, only reacting when blood spurted out.

"Ah?!!!"

Cheng Qingyu fell to the ground screaming miserably, but it wasn’t over yet. The ten small black holes flew to her feet.

A moment later, amidst the wailing, Cheng Qingyu’s ten toes also disappeared.

"Susu’s use of the Mist Spirit Eye has reached an exquisite realm, yet it’s been used to torment enemies, what a waste of talent."

From a distant peak, Xue Wen, Xue Wu, and Liu Xiaotang watched from afar; Xue Wu shook his head in regret.

Several small black holes were slowly moving, Cheng Qingyu watched her body parts disappear one by one, her cries were no longer human, sounding extremely disturbing.

Xue Wen was watching with great satisfaction: "Such power, if not used for revenge, should it be used to benefit the world? Who in the world remembers who helped them?"

Liu Xiaotang said: "I think Susu jie is right, isn’t cultivation meant to prevent being bullied? If we have strong power and can’t avenge our enemies, what’s the point?"

"You two are becoming more in tune." Xue Wu looked at them helplessly.

Xue Wen and Liu Xiaotang exchanged smiles, just then another scream echoed, the three looked down to see Cheng Qingyu’s limbs had disappeared, her head still barely able to turn, was still being stomped by Liu Su.

"Junior Sister Su, I beg you, don’t kill me, don’t kill me..."

Cheng Qingyu was now completely devoid of her former arrogance, tear-streaked, begging in terror.

"Cheng Qingyu, back on Cyan Lotus Mountain, did those innocent children beg you like this? But did you spare them?"

With Liu Su’s voice, void of emotion, a black hole slowly started to devour Cheng Qingyu’s body, from her lower abdomen, chest, neck... until her head.

"Ah!!!"

"Liu Su! You can’t kill me!!"

"Father, Mother, save me!!"

"I don’t want to die, I don’t..."

The cries ceased abruptly, Cheng Qingyu’s head was ultimately devoured clean, leaving no trace.

Liu Su stood in front of the small grave, tears finally fell:

"Little Ape, I fulfilled the promise I made to you."

She raised her hand, the blank tombstone in front of the grave revealed a line of words:

Jiang Yuan’s Grave.

"Little Ape, I lied to you, I always knew your name, when your mother named you, I was there too."

"Jiang Yuan, sister vows to wait for you if there’s a next life."

Suddenly, a shadow emerged in the air, revealing Cheng Qingyu’s face!

Liu Su was stunned: "Cheng Qingyu’s soul?"

From afar, Xue Wu exclaimed: "Soul-Binding Technique?"

Cheng Qingyu’s soul was silently screaming, seemingly unable to believe she was dead, then it was enveloped by dark energy, transforming into a stream of light and instantly flew away.

Liu Su wanted to pursue, Xue Wu quickly flew over to stop her: "Susu, don’t chase, Cheng Qingyu is already dead, even if her soul remains, it’s useless!"

"Elder Wu, what is going on?"

Liu Su was puzzled.

Xue Wu said: "This is a Forbidden Technique called Soul-Binding Technique, it can be planted in the soul of the living, and when the person dies, it sends their soul to the practitioner."

Liu Su said: "Does someone want to revive Cheng Qingyu?"

Xue Wu shook his head: "Those afflicted with the Soul-Binding Technique, their soul cannot enter the cycle of reincarnation, only to eternally become Residual Soul wandering the world, even worse than death, impossible to resurrect."

"So, does Cheng Qingyu herself not know that she was afflicted with the Soul-Binding Technique?"

"Most likely."

"Who cast such an evil technique on her? What do they want with her soul?"

...

Immortal Flying Peak.

A waterfall cascaded down the cliff face, splashing like jade, merging with the surrounding immortal mist.

The immortal mist composed of extremely rich spiritual energy, making one intoxicated with just a breath.

Not far from the waterfall was a stone path suspended in mid-air, flanked by lush trees, birds singing, flowers fragrant, an elder leading Qin Gengyun, Mo Xiaolan, and Xu Caihe slowly forward.

"Wow! So beautiful!"

"The spiritual energy is astonishingly rich!"

"Is that an auspicious beast? It has eight wings and six hands!"

Xu Caihe looked all around, constantly exclaiming with wide eyes.

The elder smiled and said: "Little Friend Xu is innocent and carefree, with a pure Tao Heart, sure to achieve great things one day."

Xu Caihe responded, inexplicably feeling cold.

Why does this sound like it isn’t a compliment?

Qin Gengyun and Mo Xiaolan were silent throughout, following the elder, and soon the four arrived at a tall pavilion suspended in mid-air.

Around them were cultivators in robes, smiling and saluting, exuding an aura of elegant immortality.

The elder pointed to the floating pavilion: "There, that is the Immortal Flying Pavilion."
