Chapter 1225: Falling Golden Crows
Jaws dropped to the ground when the princess kneeled before Feiyun and addressed him as “master”.
Did the piercing strike earlier scare her into submission? How could this be given her arrogance and willpower?
No one found anything amiss because her eyes were sincere. There was no sign of mental subjugation. Alas, they were too inexperienced to see the effect of Nefarious.
Only a few intelligent ones connected this to the sword, but they had no idea it was one of the ten immemorial ominous weapons.
“Speak, who killed Lu Shanren?” Feiyun commanded.
The princess slowly stood up and said respectfully: “It was Kun Prince, White Qilin, and Prince Moonbreak. They teamed up and crushed his soul before hanging the corpse up there.”
Rising stars were powerful and could run from pseudo-saints. However, being surrounded by those on the same level was a different story.
Feiyun killed Prince Tyrant because the guy wanted to kill him. These geniuses killed Lu Shanren to take down the human race’s morale.
Feiyun had a menacing gaze and waved his hand. The princess obeyed and walked behind him.
Tian Kunhai was at a loss for words. How did the guy enslave a proud princess so easily?
Suddenly, the screech of a golden crow could be heard.
Feiyun looked to the southeast with his heavenly gaze, seeing six golden crows chasing three rising stars.
They utilized their true forms with wings spanning hundreds of miles, leaving a fiery trail in their path.
“Aquamoon Saintess, if Prince Moonbreak can’t catch you, then we’ll take you to Prince Tyrant as a gift.” A pseudo-saint golden crow spewed out an inferno, incinerating a mountain range below.
Xuanyuan Yiyi was seriously injured; her white dress was stained with blood. Her muddled eyes showed signs of injury to the soul.
Shi Lan’s left hand was scorched but she gritted her teeth and shouted: “My master will kill all of you!”
“Hahaha, Prince Tyrant is personally dealing with him, he’s already dead with not a bone left.” The six crows spewed flames again.
Zhongyuan Yidian landed on a peak and took out his wood chopper: “You two, leave, I got this. Tell Feiyun to burn some paper for me since I’m saving his disciple and lover. Damn it, I’m gonna take down two birds with me.” [1]
“Know your limit.” A peak sixth-level crow attacked with its claws.
Zhongyuan Yidian performed an impressive slash with both hands, cutting the claws down.
“Everyone, kill him!” The wounded crow was furious and shouted.
The other stopped and surrounded him, causing him to be drenched in sweat due to their heat. The ground melted into lava.
“Fuck your sisters and mothers! Get down here and let’s do this!” His robe burned to a crisp so he used one hand to cover up his private parts.
“Pluff!” An arrow suddenly pierced one of the crows, causing it to crash into the mountain range.
“Uhh... you’re actually listening. Let’s try this again. You, get down here too!” Zhongyuan Yidian took a deep breath and shouted.
A second one fell to the ground.
“My words must be magic.” Zhongyuan Yidian stopped covering himself and shouted: “Your children will be born without an asshole!”
“Boom!” The third crow bellowed in pain and blood splashed everywhere.
“Your mother tried to sleep with me but I told her I wasn’t interested in birds!” He yelled again.
Two more crows fell, one of whom almost landed on him but he was quick enough to dodge.
He lifted into the air with his wood chopper and shouted: “I would commit suicide if I were someone as sad as you, but fortunately, I’m not you...”
This sixth crow groaned in pain and fell as well.
He landed again and watched the inferno around him, declaring proudly: “This is the fate of those who oppose me. So it turns out I have an ability like this, who would be able to beat me now? Hmph, it’s so lonely at the top.”
***
Eight thousand miles away, Feiyun dispersed his bow back into the weapon essence.
He used the power of death to shoot the six crows from a distance. Those hiding in the shadows watched him in astonishment, recalling the legends of Nine-arrow Grand Saint.
Tian Kunhai was horrified, thinking that Prince Moonbreak might not be able to defeat him.
A while later, Xuanyuan Yiyi and Shi Lan made it to the bridge. They were ecstatic to see Feiyun and landed.
When they relaxed for a moment, they lost their balance and fell to the ground. Feiyun came over and fed them a buddhist pill.
“Mas-master... go, save Brother Melon!” Shi Lan urged while her hand grew flesh again.
“Bam!” Zhongyuan Yidian landed and created a large pit. He walked out in a cool pose despite his silly outfit - a straw hat, trousers made of leaves, and a wood chopper tied to his waist.
“Lil’ Sis, I just learned a new technique and killed all six, I don’t need anyone to save me, haha!” Zhongyuan Yidian laughed.
“Wow, so cool.” Feiyun joked.
“Don’t be jealous.” Zhongyuan Yidian patted his shoulder and said: “Listen, I saved your disciple and lover, shouldn’t you be expressing your gratitude with a gift?”
Xuanyuan Yiyi’s sword hummed, seemingly wanting to come out.
Feiyun pulled the guy to the side and whispered: “What the hell are you saying, don’t joke about the saintess.”
“Am I not right? Brother Ximen said that your relationship developed dramatically, it’s just not publicized due to a difference in status.” Zhongyuan Yidian said.
“Really now?” Feiyun responded.
“Yeah, he said you came to Aquamoon last time to propose, but the deity rejected your proposal due to your lowly background. That’s why the two of you ran away.” Zhongyuan Yidian said.
“Have you told anyone else this?” Feiyun thought this version was too melodramatic.
“No.” Zhongyuan Yidian said.
Feiyun heaved a sigh of relief - it would be bad if Dongfang Jingyue were to hear this.
“Have you seen the Human Race’s Strongest List?” Zhongyuan Yidian changed the topic.
“No, I’ve only heard of it.” Feiyun said.
“This is all recorded in the book by Brother Ximen and compiled into this ranking book, it’s been printed countless times and available for sale in all the major dynasties.” Zhongyuan Yidian said: “The book can’t just have eight names, there have to be stories, topics, legends, you know?”
“What’s a better legend than a half-demon courting Aquamoon Saintess? I’m sure it’s the main topic in all the teahouses, an inspirational tale for all the young humans. Brother, you are now their role model. Honestly, you were my role model too before I learned this new ability.” Zhongyuan Yidian said.
“Ximen Chuixiao is still alive?” Feiyun exasperatedly rubbed his temples.
“Probably, we split along the way. He’s with Heaven Calculating and Fairy Xue, they purposely attracted the attention of immemorial demons to keep others safe. They should be fine given their cultivation and will be here soon.”
“I hope he dies along the way so I don’t have to finish him myself.” Feiyun rubbed his fist.
