I’ll Quit Being a God - Chapter 516: Qianxin Jie Returns Again
Qianxin Jie?!
Upon catching sight of his own reflection in the water mirror, Lu Heng’s heart leaped.
Why has this woman who claimed to have departed suddenly returned to the Heavenly Court?
She even spoke, looking for the three of them, Xiao Ai and others…
In Lu Heng’s heart, there was a slight throb.
Meanwhile, the onlookers, wearing eerie expressions, gazed at Lu Heng, sensing that they had grasped something.
The young girl with silver hair and beastly ears gritted her teeth slightly as she said, “The Wolf God, please allow Xiao Ai…”
“No need,” Lu Heng waved his hand from under the pavilion, halting the young girl’s spontaneous willingness to take action.
Qianxin Jie, mysterious and uncanny, possessed formidable strength. Considering Xiao Ai’s current cultivation level, it is likely that she would not fare well against her counterpart.
However, as he observed the woman in the water mirror, her piercing gaze carried a hint of sorrow and melancholy, rather than seeking revenge… Could it be that she was unaware of the truth behind Lu Heng’s fake death? Then, why did she go to the Heavenly Court to find Xiao Ai and the others?
After some contemplation, Lu Heng said, “Let her come to Hanyu Mountain and see the true intentions of this person.”
Lu Heng’s determination made the Candle Dragon smile, “Indeed, Friend Lu Heng possesses great courage! It is truly admirable!”
However, just as he finished praising, Lu Heng under the pavilion suddenly became faint and gradually disappeared. In a matter of moments, even his presence vanished without a trace, as if Hanyu Mountain had never visited Lu Heng before.
The incredibly mystical technique left Jiu Mie shaking his head, as he clasped his hands together and sighed, “Marvelous, truly marvelous… so the Old Wolf wanted to let us handle it.”
Meanwhile, Gu Yan had already conveyed Lu Heng’s instructions. In the water mirror, a divine official stepped out from the ranks of celestial soldiers and generals. He informed Qianxin Jie to go to Hanyu Mountain.
Therefore, the woman in the red dress in the water mirror coldly uttered a threatening remark before disappearing in a flash of light.
This fierce-tempered and ruthlessly capable woman, astonishingly, didn’t kill a single celestial soldier throughout the entire ordeal.
Before Hanyu Mountain, for the sake of caution, Candle Dragon and the others formed a “slight” magic formation.
Soon, a stream of radiance came from afar and landed directly in front of the Wolf God Temple.
Upon seeing those terrifying figures under the pavilion, Qianxin Jie, however, paid no attention and casually averted her gaze towards Xiao Ai, Gu Yan, and the enormous fat bird.
Under the gaze of Candle Dragon, Jiu Mie, and the others, the woman in the red dress spoke with a cold expression, “My name is Qianxin Jie, hailing from Heaven beyond Heaven. I hold a grudge against your master, Lu Heng. Now that Lu Heng is deceased, the Earthly Catastrophe is upon us. Remaining in the Celestial Desolation Realm will surely bring great calamity upon you.”
“If you are willing to follow me and depart, I can take you to transcend this realm, away from conflicts, and free from the hostility of the Seven Realms… Is there anyone willing to accompany me?”
The words spoken by Qianxin Jie left everyone present astounded.
Candle Dragon, Jiu Mie, and even Lian Cangqing gazed at her with peculiar eyes.
Gu Yan, with an unfriendly expression, exclaimed, “You caused harm to my master’s life, yet you expect us to leave with you? Do you think that everyone under the Hanyu Mountain sect is a cowardly and timid being afraid of death?”
The sight of Gu Yan filled with resentment and anger truly made it appear as if Lu Heng had been killed by Qianxin Jie.
Meanwhile, Candle Dragon, on the side, let out a cough and said, “This young lady seems quite confident… You intend to take these youngsters with you, but they are beings from the Celestial Desolation Realm, bound by the confinement of the Nine Cauldrons. Do you really think you can simply take them away as you please?”
Qianxin Jie glanced coldly at Candle Dragon and said, “Since I have spoken, I naturally have my ways. What difficulty is there in taking away a few youngsters? You ants from the mortal realm, ignorant of the vastness and depth of the heavens and earth, it’s no wonder. Trying to speculate about me with your feeble and ignorant thinking truly makes me laugh wholeheartedly.”
Qianxin Jie didn’t give the ancient demon before her even the slightest bit of face.
The Candle Dragon’s face turned pale, and for a moment, he had the urge to burst out. But Jiu Mie, who was beside him, gently patted his back, calming the Candle Dragon down.
Afterward, the old ascetic cultivator, with a sorrowful countenance, clasped his hands together and said, “Since you have a method to leave the Celestial Desolation Realm, could you please impart it to me? I have only lived for a little over four thousand years and don’t wish to depart from this world so soon… I earnestly seek your guidance on the path of salvation.”
The elderly wandering monk had a sorrowful countenance, and his words were earnest.
Upon witnessing this scene, Qianxin Jie’s expression softened slightly, and she said, “Considering that you are Lu Heng’s friend, if you wish to depart, I can accompany you. Although you cannot journey with me to the Heaven beyond Heaven, once you leave the Celestial Desolation Realm, the vastness of the myriad realms will provide ample opportunities for you to explore and enjoy.”
Qianxin Jie’s words greatly exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Even Jiu Mie, who jokingly tested the waters with his words, was slightly taken aback, and then he said, “Miss Qianxin Jie, you truly mean to lead me out of this sea of suffering… Do you perhaps not harbor resentment towards Lu Heng? Do you not resent us, who are close to him?”
Jiu Mie’s inquiry also reflected the confusion in the hearts of all those present.
Due to Qianxin Jie’s extremely peculiar and unconventional behavior.
If she truly harbored hatred towards Lu Heng, shouldn’t she have come seeking revenge to annihilate them at this moment?
However, if she didn’t bear animosity towards Lu Heng, why would she engage in a deadly confrontation and seek vengeance against him?
First pressuring Lu Heng to the point of death, and now coming to our door to exhibit goodwill… Is this something a normal person would do?
Amidst the vigilant and perplexed gazes of the crowd, Qianxin Jie’s countenance remained indifferent.
After a few moments of silence, she said slowly, “I do indeed harbor hatred towards Lu Heng, yearning for nothing more than to eliminate him and find solace. Even until now, such sentiments remain unchanged.”
“However, when I was misled by him back then, I made a promise that if he were to meet an unfortunate end in the future, I would spare no effort to protect his hometown and ensure the well-being of his loved ones.”
“Now that Lu Heng has passed away, I shall fulfill my promise. Although he treated me unjustly in the past, we were bound together as husband and wife, and I am duty-bound to honor the agreement and ensure the safety and well-being of his loved ones.”
“You all are the only remaining kin and friends of Lu Heng in this world. Those willing to accompany me on this journey, I shall lead you away from the confines of the Celestial Desolation Realm and towards the realms of the heavens.”
Speaking thus, Qianxin Jie turned her gaze towards Xiao Ai, Gu Yan, and the three younger generations, saying, “And as for the three of you, if you truly wish to seek vengeance for Lu Heng, then come with me to the Heaven beyond Heaven. Otherwise, even if you were to achieve great cultivation in the future, you would never be able to cross that boundary, never have the chance to lay eyes upon me, let alone speak of avenging your master.”
After speaking, Qianxin Jie stood with her hands behind her back, her countenance indifferent, and said, “Take a moment to contemplate. Those who are willing to accompany me, present yourselves before me.”
“After a quarter of an hour, I shall forever depart from this repulsive mortal realm and return to the celestial splendor of Heaven beyond Heaven.”
“And what remains, let each bear the burden of the Earthly Catastrophe. I have fulfilled my promise to Lu Heng. If none of you are willing to leave, then it is your own demise you seek, and it has nothing to do with me.”
Qianxin Jie, with an indifferent expression and a tone devoid of warmth, showed no sign of concern. It appeared that everything she did was merely a matter of fulfilling her duty as agreed upon, devoid of personal involvement.
As Candle Dragon and Jiu Mie’s gazes shift, they are actually searching for a way to subdue this person and compel her to disclose how to break free from the constraints of the Celestial Desolation Realm.
However, as time passes by second after second, Qianxin Jie remains standing before everyone with her countenance still as indifferent as ever.
And the decision to subdue her, however, has yet to be made.
Because of this mysterious and enigmatic woman, it is indeed difficult to fathom, to the extent that even her own existence seems ephemeral, let alone subduing or overcoming her.
If everyone were to make a move, it is feared that in an instant, this woman would be able to flee far away, unscathed and without a single hair harmed.
