Chapter 926: 926
Before the Black Divine Stele could fall down, it had broken into pieces with a boom .
Meanwhile, Kong Lanyou flew through the broken Divine Stele, and strided to King Zhongying . She was covered by the saint light of seven colors like an unparalleled Peacock Goddess .
With each step, she had come dozens of kilometers closer . The heaven and the earth had become relatively small underneath her steps .
“How’s it possible?” King Zhongying found it hard to believe .
The Universe Divine-Stele Palm had always been the proud knowledge of King Zhongying, which could break all defenses and attack all enemies .
How could it be cracked so easily?
Kong Youlan didn’t give much time for King Zhongying to think . She arrived and hit the center of his brow with one finger .
Lines of seven-colored brilliance were gathered to her fingertip .
It had drained the Spiritual Qi from the area of about 500 kilometers, disordering the Rule of the Heaven and the Earth .
King Zhongying pinched his palms again and displayed the Hundred Saint Power .
Behind him, the shadows of 100 saints all raised one hand to hit Kong Lanyou .
Fizz .
The finger of Kong Lanyou penetrated the palm of King Zhongying .
Then she transformed her finger into a palm, and hit three palm prints in a row on the palm, chest and left brain of King Zhongying .
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Being hit three times, half of the evil Qi of King Zhongying dispersed . His body was indented, his neck broken, and blood was being spit out of his mouth . He flew away rightwards .
The Peacock Fire contained in Kong Lanyou’s palm burnt the body of King Zhongying . Whatever method King Lanyou took, he couldn’t put out the flame .
His body began to melt like burning iron .
King Zhongying realized the gap between him and Kong Lanyou and dared not to fight any longer . He landed on the White Bone Altar, then rode it to fly to the Pluto Sword Tomb .
In just a blink, he disappeared from the horizon .
Only Blood Emperor Qingtian could resolve the Peacock Fire on his body . So he had to go back quickly .
Kong Lanyou stood in midair, looking at the escaping King Zhongying . She didn’t stop him .
She let him run away deliberately .
“It will cost at least 20% of Blood Emperor Qingtian’s strength to resolve the Peacock Fire on King Zhongying . ”
She looked downwards and stared at Yintuoluo . “Master, shall we go to the Pluto Sword Tomb?”
Yintuoluo looked at the land, which was covered by burning flames after the battles . He sighed, “We can’t let the felons kept in the Underground Spirit Prison out . Otherwise, it could be devastating for human beings . ”
“Now that the flames of war have been lit in the Sikong Zen Temple . I can’t keep myself out of the worldly affairs any longer . ”
“Let’s go! Let’s meet Blood Emperor Qingtian, and see how powerful the Immortal Vampires have become after 800 years . ”
Kong Lanyou cast another look at Zhang Ruochen, and finally made a step . It was like she had crossed some barrier between the heaven and the earth . When she put down her foot, she had arrived at the Pluto Sword Tomb .
Yintuoluo raced to the Pluto Sword Tomb as well . Only Zhang Ruochen, Sikong One, Sikong Two and Sikong Little were left in the Sikong Zen Temple .
Now that Lanyou and Yintuoluo have gone to the Pluto Sword Tomb, together with the ambush of the imperial army, Underground Spirit Prison should be safe, Zhang Ruochen thought secretly .
The Immortal Vampires were the enemies to all human beings, nobody wanted them to release Pluto no matter how .
“Say! Where is the Second Royal Prince of the Immortal Vampires?”
Sikong Two rubbed his head .
Zhang Ruochen glanced around, and didn’t find the Second Royal Prince .
Maybe he had run away in the chaos? Or died in the repercussions of the Saint Battle?
Zhang Ruochen didn’t think further, but sat down with his legs crossed . He swallowed a mouthful of Xuanwu Saint Blood, and strived to recover his Holy Qi with one saint rock in each hand .
The strength of Zhang Ruochen had recovered about 70-80% by daybreak .
Zhang Ruochen stood up, relaxing his wrists and ankles . He stood halfway up the mountain, and looked down to its base .
The lush and green mountain woods were turned into scorched earth completely . Flames were still burning in some spots, melting the soil into magma .
A smell of cooking spread from the Sikong Zen Temple .
Zhang Ruochen stood up and came to the dining hall of the temple, guided by the smell of cooking .
Sikong One, Sikong Two and the 3 or 4-year old Sikong Little were seen sitting at the three sides of a yellowish brown wood table, eating .
There was corn porridge, steamed buns, bamboo shoots and some green fruit . Although there was no meat, the meal looked scrumptious .
The battle of life and death that happened outside the Zen Temple had turned the land within about 500 meters into red soil . It was incredible for them to keep on eating and sleeping like nothing had happened .
Sikong One saw Zhang Ruochen walk in, put down his bowl at once and hit the table with his fist . He shouted, “Second Junior Brother, watch the way you eat! You are more of a beggar than a Buddhist . Don’t you see Mr . Zhang coming in? Bring him a bowl of rice and hurry up!”
“Oh!”
Sikong Two put down his bowl and walked to the kitchen right away .
Sikong One smiled at Zhang Ruochen with his big face . “Second Junior Brother is too young to know things . Mr . Zhang, please don’t be angry with him . Sit, sit . We always provide enough food in our Zen Temple . ”
Zhang Ruochen walked to a table near the window, and sat down . He looked at the Buddha Tower and the red flowers winding on the rails outside the window . Magically, his mindset became extremely peaceful .
The Zen Temple was a truly serene place, and his coming had broken the tranquility here . Zhang Ruochen felt a little ashamed .
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t help to sigh .
“What are you sighing for?”
A clear and sweet voice was heard opposite him . It was as beautiful as the spring flowing on the stone, and the wind blowing the moon .
Zhang Ruochen looked at his opposite and found a beautiful white haired woman sitting there . No one knew when she had sat down .
Zhang Ruochen looked to his right immediately, and found an old monk beside the table of Sikong One and Sikong Little . He appeared all of a sudden, but he sat quietly in the chair, like he’d been there all the time .
Apparently, Kong Lanyou and Master Yintuoluo had just returned to the Sikong Zen Temple .
Zhang Ruochen asked at once, “Kong…Senior, did the Immortal Vampires retreat to the Pluto Sword Tomb? What’s the result?”
“You should answer my question first . ”
The beautiful eyes of Kong Lanyou looked straightly at Zhang Ruochen like two black gems, as if she wanted to see through him .
Zhang Ruochen pressed his lips and calmed down . He pointed to the red flowers winding on the window lattices, and said, “Look, life is so beautiful . And yet we are destroying it . Shouldn’t I sigh for it?”
Kong Lanyou shook her head lightly, and said, “No, it’s not right . ”
“Not right?” Zhang Ruochen asked her in reply .
Kong Lanyou kept shaking her head, and didn’t blink . “You shouldn’t be so calm as an ordinary person . When I sit opposite an ordinary person, he should be frightened to stand up and bow respectfully to me, keeling on the ground . But, you didn’t . ”
Zhang Ruochen remained calm, and knocked the table with a finger . “Do you wish to see me like that?”
“Of course not . ”
Kong Lanyou said again, “You are trying to hide your identity from me . Even I can’t spot a weak point . So before we returned to Zen Temple, I told Master Yintuoluo that I wanted to see your reaction when you took off your mask . ”
“Did you see it? Would you tell me what I was like?” Zhang Ruochen’s voice trembled a little .
After he went to 800 years later, he had been working hard to hide him and his secret .
Sometimes he would forget what he was originally like .
Kong Lanyoou’s eyes were a little red . “I saw some sadness, worry, and a little loneliness . You shouldn’t have such feelings if you didn’t go through the great ups and downs of life . ”
Zhang Ruochen just sat there silently . He didn’t dare to look at Kong Lanyou .
He would like to tell everything to Kong Lanyou at once, however, some negative thoughts occurred to him, and prevented him from making the decision .
“The family name of Crypt of Sacred Central is Kong, not Zhang . ”
“When the Kong Family took over the imperial government of Sacred Central Empire by then, they took away the royal rights of the Zhang Family as well . ”
“Are the woman’s words trustworthy?”
…
The voices were like demonic spells appearing in Zhang Ruochen’s mind, together with pictures of bloody scenes .
“Mr . Zhang, your food . ”
Sikong Two carried a wooden plate to the table . He put a bowl of porridge, a small dish of bamboo shoots, three steamed buns and four pieces of green fruit in front of Zhang Ruochen .
Sikong One shouted from the other direction, “Don’t you see that Master and Senior Kong are back? Go and bring two more bowls . ”
“Right on my way . ”
Sikong Two raced to the kitchen with his wooden plate right away .
Zhang Ruochen exhaled slowly, trying to adjust his emotion and avoid the influence of his obsession .
His spirit recovered gradually . And he drank the porridge, holding it with two hands .
So refreshing and sweet . How delicious!
Kong Lanyou seemed to have perceived that he was at a risky state, so she didn’t put pressure on him .
She picked up a steamed bun, twisted a small part off it with her slender fingers, and put the part in her mouth . She chewed slowly, in a way which was full of grace .
Neither Kong Lanyou nor Zhang Ruochen needed to feed on grains . But the two did enjoy the rare serenity in the Sikong Zen Temple .
Zhang Ruochen pretened to look at Kong Lanyou casually .
Her way of eating was quite lovely . The lips were like flawless lotus tips, touching each other slightly . While she ate, snow white teeth would appear from time to time, each of which was like a pearl .
Now she looked nothing like the Saint Elder of Sacred Central Crypt, but the girl 800 years ago .
It was as if they’d travelled back to the beginning, eating, taking morning courses, practicing sword and studying together .
Zhang Ruochen valued the moment very much, for he knew that it might never happen again .
He wished fervently that one thing should also happen like the past . Chi Yao would take away the steamed bun from Kong Lanyou’s hand, eat a little, then put the bun in Zhang Ruochen’s bowl . And she would laugh, “Lanyou, you eat too much . What if you put on weight? You should give it to your cousin . Let him eat more . ”
But it would never happen .
