Chapter 253: Chapter 245: No Feeding Dog Food, Just Kill the Dog!

"I’m so furious! I’m so furious! I’m so furious!" Cang Dong was completely beside himself.

He had just sensed Su Jianyi’s presence from that crack, and it scared him so much he didn’t dare to move an inch. Even before, when Su Jianyi had only left a small portion of his power here, that was enough to hang him up and beat him fancily.

It wasn’t that he was cowardly, but rather that his body subconsciously stiffened.

Only now did he belatedly realize that the part of Su Jianyi that needed suppressing had been stripped of its power and was now utterly immobile.

And like a complete fool, he had been standing here as a punishment, forced to watch two youngsters lovingly become Daoist partners right before his eyes!

What’s even more infuriating was that the damn kid actually managed to condense an ice rose from the snowy landscape he had created and offer it as a gift, performing the borrowed indirection with quite the flair. It’s simply inhuman!

In Su Youyi’s sweet gaze, Liang Yi held her with one arm and raised the sword scabbard high with his right hand. When he looked at Cang Dong, his eyes were colder than the surrounding world.

"How dare you, a mere Fourth Realm cultivator, act so arrogantly before me?" Cang Dong was shouting like mad, but in fact, he was already plotting his escape on the quiet.

He had finally merged spirit and flesh, hoping to escape his confinement. Even if there was only a one-thousandth chance of failing here, he didn’t want to take the risk.

This youth was far too strange, his aura thick with the essence of the Heavenly Dao, was simply nauseating, and this person was even someone who had come from Su Jianyi.

But throughout history, the only one who had really harmed the Heavenly Dao was Su Jianyi, who had cleaved a corner of the Heavenly Dao to provide his elder brother, the Daoist Immortal, with material to seal the Abyss.

Logically, a youth with such close ties to the Heavenly Dao should be an enemy of Su Jianyi, and it was impossible that Su Jianyi hadn’t noticed the youth’s strangeness.

"No, it’s better to preserve the green mountains than to worry about running out of firewood."

Cang Dong was already quietly deploying his Escape Skill, learning from his many years of incarceration that at least he should grasp this principle; if he had understood this back in the day, would he have subjected himself to this humiliation?

Meanwhile, Liang Yi, fully focused, was channeling the power left in him by Senior Su Jianyi into the sword scabbard. The fierce power of the Frostwinter between heaven and earth slowly began to converge towards the sword scabbard in Liang Yi’s hands.

Suddenly, Cang Dong realized something was wrong. His Escape Skill relied on the Frostwinter intent attached to each snowflake for his leaping escape, but now all the Frostwinter intent around him had vanished completely, as if Taotie had opened its mouth and taken a bite.

The power emanating from Liang Yi, which filled him with fear, was getting stronger and stronger, and he was puzzled why Su Jianyi hadn’t struck him earlier; it turned out he had lent his power to this youngster.

"This is intolerable!" Cang Dong wanted to switch to another method of escape, but he was being looked at by an insignificant Fourth Realm junior with a gaze that seemed to see him as dead, resembling the look in Su Jianyi’s eyes from those years ago.

Cang Dong slowly exhaled a breath, and then his mouth opened wider and wider. A surging gravitation emitted from his mouth, shaking the space for tens of millions of miles around, with specks of sky-blue luminescence appearing and converging into a blue ocean that was sucked into Cang Dong’s mouth.

His expression was stern, his hands clapped together in reverse just above his abdomen. As he pulled horizontally, a cyan-blue spear suddenly appeared between his palms.

Su Youyi, clutching tightly in Liang Yi’s embrace, acutely noticed that with the tremble of the spear, the space around it was instantly frozen, turning into chunks of ice crystals that fell. Even Cang Dong himself was not completely immune to the might of this Daoist Skill.

The spear aimed at both Liang Yi and her, Cang Dong leaned forward and whispered softly:

"Frostwinter Spear!"

Ice-blue light shot out straight from his hands, heading directly for Liang Yi’s heart with ruthless precision.

The piercing Frostwinter Spear, cutting through the air, brought out a shrill sound that swept through the snowy sky, creating a huge tail behind the spear.

Liang Yi, facing the overwhelming attack, was utterly calm. The strength of Senior Su Jianyi buoyed him, and he was clearer than anyone that the world’s Taihua Xiyi Bell must now be back under old man Zixuan Bu’s control. An invisible force was gradually fortifying him from within; he was now truly at a time when heaven and earth were one with him.

Su Youyi, burying her face in Liang Yi’s chest, only heard her senior brother chant two words:

"Killing Autumn!"

The sword technique formed from the cold power of Cang Dong was returned to him by Liang Yi. After all, taking a stranger’s things is not a good habit.

The evenly matched Daoist Skills collided in an instant, the silent explosion sent Liang Yi and Cang Dong flying, filling the surrounding space with a dense ice fog.

Cang Dong’s head buzzed from the impact, but upon seeing his surroundings, his eyes lit up, contemplating a quick escape right there and then.

However, before Cang Dong could initiate his Escape Skill, a shadow was cast upon the sparkling ice fog around him, the shadow of a Kunpeng’s phantom.

Behind the phantom, an even more powerful Sword technique with a hint of cold light cut through the fog silently targeting Cang Dong’s forehead.

It was then that Liang Yi’s indifferent voice reached his ears.

"Southern Dipper!"

This was the true power inherited from the predecessor Su Jianyi and the Taixia Xi Yi Clock—a decoy with Killing Autumn, a decisive blow with Southern Dipper.

Silent and unperceived, it was the strongest strike of his life.

"What are you looking at? Haven’t you heard that holding a sister in your arms doubles the damage?" Feeling Cang Dong’s reluctant gaze, Liang Yi kindly imparted a lesson.

"You despicable outsider!"

Cang Dong couldn’t muster the strength to voice his resentment; he could only widen his eyes, engraving Liang Yi and Su Youyi’s faces into his memory.

In the original history, even Jianyi had succumbed to him in the end, yet today, he was unexpectedly killed by a junior. In the real world, even with just his body and a part of his Divine Soul, he possessed a trace of immortality. But now, merely a false phantom reversed out by the Time Law, he would need to reunite all three aspects to access his immortality again.

Unfortunately...

Cang Dong’s eyes slightly shifted at the last moment, glancing towards two purple flickers in the ice fog not far away, like eyes foreseeing the future and piercing through everything quietly observed the arrival of his doomed death.

Cang Dong, his eyes gently closed, never had the chance to open them again and turned into an Ice Crystal statue, utterly shattered by Liang Yi’s sword.

"He Zhiqing?"

Su Youyi noticed He Zhiqing’s presence not far away, her pretty face flushed red as she hurriedly extracted herself from her senior brother’s embrace, standing beside Liang Yi holding her long robe.

"Big brother He, what’s with your eyes?"

Liang Yi had noticed He Zhiqing’s arrival long ago but only now could he clearly see his peculiar condition.

Having been scrutinized by He Zhiqing’s mysterious purple pupils, Liang Yi felt as though he was examined inside and out, as if even his future was seen through.

"My eyes have been this way from birth; they just have some special use. But they put too much strain on my body and Divine Soul, so I had them sealed by my master when I was younger. I never expected the seal to break accidentally when my memory was restored."

He Zhiqing glanced at the Ice Crystal sculpture where Cang Dong had fallen, confirming his true death, before closing his eyes and drifting over to Liang Yi and Youyi, explaining in passing.

As the part of Cang Dong that died, the icy world around began to melt, and the temperature somehow dropped even lower than before, making Liang Yi subconsciously grab hold of his junior sister’s cold hand.

Meanwhile, Su Youyi’s cheeks reddened even more under the strange gaze of He Zhiqing’s eyes; being seen while in a romantic situation was truly embarrassing.
