Reborn As A Blade Of Grass, I Become The Companion Of A Goddess - Chapter 14

The sword Qi flew across the sky to its destination with a sharp piercing sound as the Qi flow changed around it.

When the sword Qi finally closed in on the battlefield, everyone stopped fighting as they shuddered in fear and unease. They became confused.

“What’s going on?”

“Why is there suddenly such a strong killing intent?!”

When they turned around, they saw a grand, dazzling flash of light appear from behind the treetop heading straight for them.

The sword Qi approached with a screaming whistle as it cut through the air. The bright light it emitted illuminated entire mountains as if the sun had risen. The light was even visible to the residents back in Wolf Village and Stone Village.

“Is that…a sword Qi?!”

Those still in their villages stopped what they were doing and squinted at the distant brightness in the middle of the night, faces filled with confusion. It was too eye-catching!

The sword Qi slashed through a few ancient trees in its path as it remained locked onto its target. Everything it came into contact with clanged against its body with a strangely melodious echo that reached into the depths of one’s soul.

The Stone Village’s chief squinted against the blinding sword Qi to observe it.

The sword Qi finally descended and got close enough to its target.

The Wolf Village’s guardian spirit was slightly stunned and stopped moving the moment it saw the sword light. It knew that the sword Qi within it was completely different from the others, especially with such an intense killing intent.

The Wolf Village’s guardian spirit froze, terrified as it finally realized that it was the sword Qi’s target.

It howled and stopped attacking Shi Hao, hoping to escape by dodging the sword Qi.

However, how could it even think of doing so when the sword Qi moved as fast as lightning?

And no matter how hard it tried, the Wolf Village’s guardian spirit could not move its body.

Paralyzed, the Wolf Village’s guardian spirit watched the tip of the condensed sword Qi pierce through its body as if everything was in slow motion.

“Boom!”

The Wolf Village’s guardian spirit had been lifted into the air by the fatal blow and landed on its back.

The sword Qi had left a bloody hole in the body of the Wolf Village’s guardian spirit, messing up its internal organs.

Upon a closer look, there was a light green mist inside the body of the Wolf Village’s guardian spirit, eroding his blood essence and body at an unimaginable speed.

The Wolf Village’s guardian spirit’s limbs went stiff and its body turned ice-cold as it passed, still in an attack pose.

Unfortunately, his wish to sneakily attack Shi Hao could not be fulfilled before he died.

In just a short moment, the body of the Wolf Village’s guardian spirit had been reduced to ashes and smoke.

The Wolf Village’s guardian spirit had been killed!

Everything had happened so suddenly that there was a brief moment of silence that followed. Everyone was shocked by how suddenly the Wolf Village’s guardian spirit died but also terrified of the sword Qi. No one knew where it had come from and why. Who knew who would be its next target?

While everyone was recovering from the shock, the sword Qi started to aim for Suan Ni’s corpse.

“No!!”

The Wolf Village’s chief instinctively shouted when he realized what was about to happen.

If the sword Qi attacked Suan Ni, wouldn’t the latter’s corpse turn out like their guardian spirit’s?

They would not only lose Suan Ni’s precious blood essence but there would be nothing left for anyone to scavenge.

Wolf Village had just lost their guardian spirit, and they would not let the sword Qi make them lose Suan Ni’s corpse as well.

Sadly, the sword Qi had no intention of obeying their wishes.

The Stone Village’s chief, on the other hand, immediately ordered his cultivators to retreat by one kilometer as they watched the sword Qi.

The Stone Village’s chief was not a fool. The moment he noticed the sword Qi aiming for Suan Ni, he had his suspicions.

Suan Ni was not dead yet! It was faking it!

That was the reason the sword Qi was now aiming for Suan Ni.

Though none of the people around the lake had the ability to stand up against the sword Qi, at least it seemed to be on the Stone Village’s side.

Just as the sword Qi was about to hit Suan Ni, the latter dodged, moving twice as fast as the Wolf Village’s guardian spirit.

In fact, the moment the sword Qi was approaching from afar, Suan Ni was already able to sense it and became more vigilant.

Suan Ni had lived for thousands of years but it had never encountered such swift and fierce sword Qi. He had traveled through the Great Wastelands before and knew of a race of humans that specialized in using swords.

However, despite its large population, Suan Ni had already determined that no one in that particular human race had such a sword ability.

Suan Ni could tell that this was not the usual and simple sword Qi.

Even though Suan Ni was able to dodge the sword Qi the first time, it quickly realized that it was having a harder time controlling its body.

Thus, rather than continue dodging and running, Suan Ni decided to jump upwards, shocking the humans present, and meet the sword Qi head-on.

“I’m going to die anyway, and I’d rather be killed by this sword Qi than be taken apart by these petty humans. That way, I will be able to die with no regrets.”

Suan Ni closed its eyes and calmly accepted its fate.

The sword Qi must have been placed on its Great Dao by the heavens.

“I would like to thank the person behind this sword Qi. But it seems that I will never find out who this person is.” Suan Ni could not help but laugh as he sorrowfully welcomed death.

“It would be such a shame if the sword Qi killed Suan Ni and destroyed its body.” The village chief of Stone Village saw what was happening, he could not help but sigh.

There was nothing anyone could do at this point as they looked on, heartbroken..
