Chapter 1915: I’ll tell you a little secret

No, I should stop thinking in such a way. Young Master Hai quickly stopped his thoughts.

If he were to continue with that line of thinking… He was afraid that inner demons really would appear in his heart.

After this incident was over, he had to take a break for a while and stabilize his mental state.

Young Master Hai silently thought to himself, Even though Demon Emperor Hezhi is my goal, he is also someone I want to surpass. The future I want is not limited to what has been achieved by a Demon Emperor. My aspirations are much greater.

Moreover, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song had not relied on his own strength to defeat Demon Emperor Hezhi. He had done so by relying on various factors.

From the fact that Demon Emperor Hezhi was clamoring to take revenge, it could be seen that Demon Emperor Hezhi was not afraid of Profound Sage Tyrannical Song. It was very likely that he had been taken advantage of, or Profound Sage Tyrannical Song borrowed the power of other big shots.

Young Master Hai was quickly able to calm himself down.

A person like him would not easily be beaten or knocked down. Even in a desperate situation, he would survive tenaciously as long as he was still breathing, and make a comeback one day.

“Alas, Demon Emperor Hezhi ran away,” said Song Shuhang. Afterward, he returned to the Divine Lobster’s Chariot.

But it’s fine that he ran away. To be honest, if I really were to fight a Young Master Hai possessed by Demon Emperor Hezhi, I’m not certain what the outcome would be.

Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword had left, and Song Shuhang was currently only left with the black Scarlet Heaven Sword. And the black Scarlet Heaven Sword had no way of cooperating with Song Shuhang to slash out the Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique. Compared with back when he was in the Black Dragon World, Song Shuhang was lacking a lot of his trump cards.

He looked at the black Scarlet Heaven Sword that was in his hands, and then suddenly gestured.

The black Scarlet Heaven Sword asked, “What?”

Song Shuhang said, “I was just thinking, should I learn the sword-swallowing skill? I always felt that when Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword’s main body was still with me back then, while it would express its resistance to the action with its words, it never really resisted the virtuous lamia’s sword-swallowing performance. Senior, do you actually enjoy the process of being swallowed?”

The virtuous lamia tilted her head and blinked.

The black Scarlet Heaven Sword warned, “If you dare to perform sword swallowing with me, I will fight you. I will definitely pierce your guts!”

Senior Turtle remarked, “It is an inner demon, after all. Some of its hobbies are probably the opposite of its main body.”

“That makes sense,” said Song Shuhang. After saying that, he moved his hand and used the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯ on the black Scarlet Heaven Sword.

“Aaaah~ How refreshing.” The black Scarlet Heaven Sword felt extremely comfortable.

Song Shuhang remarked, “But there also seems to be some things that are still the same.”

“…” Senior Turtle.

Sister White Dragon said, “It looks like Young Master Hai doesn’t have much strength left.”

The berserk effect that he had gone through just now had consumed much of Young Master Hai’s power.

And Demon Emperor Hezhi’s will had even retreated when it had been in the middle of possessing his body. At this time, Young Master Hai’s power was nearly depleted.

Su Clan’s Sixteen said, “This will be the last move.”

She looked at Young Master Hai’s clone, and said, “If you manage to survive after this move, then you can live. If you are unable to endure it, then you die.”

Young Master Hai raised his head and looked at Su Clan’s Sixteen.

Sixteen stood on one foot on a layer of light, having already assumed a graceful punching posture…

Her words showed that her strongest move at the moment was not a saber technique, but rather a fist technique.

“Phew~” Sixteen slowly exhaled. Around her neck, several dragon scales made of spiritual energy emerged. The dragon scales looked like they were made of crystals, which made them look very valuable.

Behind Sixteen, a series of visual phenomena emerged.

Violent lightning enveloped her body, a true dragon wrapped around her arm, and a formation composed of ancient runes appeared on the soles of her feet.

A “starry river” composed of countless stars appeared behind her elbow. This projection of a starry river stretched out for nearly a kilometer.

In the starry river, there were hundreds of true dragons swimming amongst the stars.

The river surged forward. The force that came with the flow of the water and the hundreds of dragons all acted upon Sixteen’s elbow, pushing her arm forward.

Gulp.

Song Shuhang swallowed.

The special effects of this punch looked absolutely brutal. It really made one feel that regardless of who would be hit by this punch, they were bound to die.

“Heh, I didn’t expect Sixteen to have been able to learn this punch as well,” Senior Turtle said. “The ancestral golden dragon used this move to knock Slow-Witted Song from the eastern end of the Ancient Heavenly City to its western end in one hit. It caused him to shed a tear the size of a bean. It was truly spectacular.”

“…” Song Shuhang.

Another dark part of Slow-Witted Song’s history when he got beaten and cried?

Boom!

Sixteen threw the punch with everything she had.

When she swung her fist, the environment changed—heavy rain poured down from the sky, and the waves roared and crashed, setting off even larger waves.

Young Master Hai did not avoid the attack.

It’s time to end this, he thought.

There was no need to move about anymore. There really was not much power left in his body. In this way, even if he died, he would be able to put a proper close to the play.

And so, the fist hit him.

As soon as it touched him, Young Master Hai felt like his bones were being crushed.

His body was sent flying, but then the terrifying punch passed through his body, blasting out a huge vortex in the sea.

Young Master Hai’s body was like a skipping stone, bouncing on the sea surface up and down repeatedly.

In the end, his body stopped skipping on the water, and he lay floating on the sea, motionless.

I actually didn’t die?

What a tragedy.

He would rather die immediately to end the play where his clone was meant to die anyway.

Young Master Hai recalled Sixteen’s punch just now. At the last moment, her punch passed through his body and slammed into the sea. This was obviously not an operational error, but an intentional one.

Damn, does Tyrannical Song want to capture me alive?

Not good. Young Master Hai frowned.

If he was captured alive by Profound Sage Tyrannical Song, then the other party might be able to discover that he was a clone.

While he was in thought, he saw two figures descend right by him.

It was Sixteen, as well as Profound Sage Tyrannical Song, whom he least wanted to see.

Song Shuhang reached out, took off the hat on his head, and put it back on Sixteen’s head. “You’ve worked hard, Sixteen.”

Sixteen said regretfully, “Mm-hm, it’s a pity that this battle was not that enjoyable.”

“There will be a chance for you to enjoy yourself in the future.” Song Shuhang smiled slightly, and squatted beside Young Master Hai. “Don’t you think so? My mortal enemy, Fellow Daoist Young Master Hai.”

Young Master Hai closed his eyes and pretended to be dead, trying to figure out a solution in his mind.

Song Shuhang said, “Next time, you should let Sixteen have a proper battle with your main body.”

“!!!” Young Master Hai suddenly opened his eyes.

Song Shuhang continued, “This clone of yours is very realistic. If I had not known your plan from the very beginning, perhaps I would have been deceived by you.”

Young Master Hai asked, “You… knew my plan?”

How is that possible? I’m the only one who knows of my plan! I did not tell anyone!

“Indeed. I knew it from the very beginning,” Song Shuhang said. “I’ll tell you a little secret. I know of everything that you’ve done, experienced, and felt in the past month.”

Young Master Hai only felt an unspeakable feeling in his heart as madness surged within him.

It was an inner demon.

An inner demon had been born within his heart.
