Give Me Another Smile

plendent light, his heart immediately sank.
He knew that he had made a grievous mistake, and was frightened ashen.

Sima Hong’s Heavenly Sage Laws quickly emerged from his body, and he hastily flashed hand seals with his hands, forming rings of light barriers before him to block this finger strike.

There were quite a lot of Heavenly Sage Laws densely packed together—at least five hundred of them.
However, none of them was even as thick as a pinky finger.

These Heavenly Sage Laws were far from comparable to those of Inferior Grade Martial Sages in the Kunlun Realm.

“Pu ci!”

The purple saber Qi flashed, and Sima Hong’s defense tore like paper, entirely ineffectual.

A flash of crimson spurted out.
The saber Qi pierced through Sima Hong’s body.
Then, his body burst into thousands of pieces, together with space.
He died without an intact corpse.

Xiao Chen shattered space with one finger strike.
Sima Hong did not have the chance to let out even a pained moan.

Xiao Chen drew back his hand.
The space of the area before him, where the strand of saber Qi passed, had already splintered.
Pieces of riven space scattered everywhere.

Cold sweat poured down the foreheads of the other Martial Sages.
Their eyes revealed indescribable horror.

What kind of horrifying strength is this? Even a Medial Grade Martial Sage of the Sky Dome Realm could not put up any resistance before Xiao Chen.

In actual fact, it was not that Xiao Chen was too strong but that these Sky Dome Realm Martial Sages were too weak.
Compared to the Kunlun Realm’s Martial Sages, they were much weaker; it was like comparing mud and clouds.

Furthermore, Xiao Chen comprehended the will of thunder, and his saber intent reached peak ninety percent comprehension, even showing a rough image of a saber soul.

This finger strike might seem casual.
However, it actually used close to eighty percent of Xiao Chen’s strength.
He had never intended to let Sima Hong live in the first place.

More importantly, Xiao Chen used his finger strike as a threat to the other Martial Sages, deterring them from entertaining further thoughts about the Tianwu Emperor’s grave.

The scattered pieces of space started to mend themselves back slowly.
Xiao Chen’s aura dissipated as he said calmly, “Now that I’ve dealt with my private matters, let’s continue with the actual business.
It is not time for the Tianwu Emperor’s grave to be open yet.
Everyone, please return.”

Xiao Chen had said similar words earlier.
His tone and attitude had not changed at all.

However, the effect this time was immediate.
Most of them left shortly.
They knew they had no other choice.
This was obvious just by looking at the incomplete corpse of Sima Hong.

Haha! This old man congratulates Brother Xiao Chen on obtaining the Tianwu Emperor’s grave.
This old man will definitely come and pay a personal visit to the Heavenly Saber Pavilion soon.

A voice projection rang out in Xiao Chen’s mind.
It was from the Sect Master of the Sky Dome Realm’s Supreme Sky Sect branch.

Speechless, Xiao Chen smiled bitterly.
Probably most people had not believed him when he said that it was not time to open the Tianwu Emperor’s grave.

However, Xiao Chen did not feel like explaining.
He replied via voice projection, saying, Senior makes too much of it.

All the Martial Sages slowly left.
Soon, only Xiao Chen remained.
Then, he sighed wordlessly.
A round pearl emanating a piercing chill appeared in his hand; it was the dragon pearl that had been giving off light earlier.

Xiao Chen, are you really not going to take a look at what is in the first-generation Tianwu Emperor’s grave? This Tianwu Emperor is a very mysterious person.
It is not even certain that he is dead.
Once we open the grave, everything will be clear, Ao Jiao said softly from within Immortal Spirit Ring.

Xiao Chen glanced at the Tianwu Emperor’s grave in the thicket of plants.
Then he replied, “Forget it.
Since I already gave that old flood dragon my word, I should just help it fulfill its promise.”

Earlier, when the dragon pearl was on the verge of exploding, even the hidden Xiao Chen was startled.

Just as he prepared to use his full power to tear open space to escape, the dragon pearl flew over to his hand, surprising him tremendously.
It turned out that a remnant of the old flood dragon’s soul was still in the dragon pearl.

The old flood dragon implored him to continue guarding the Tianwu Emperor’s grave and not let anyone open it.

Xiao Chen could not agree to that completely.
He only could promise to do his best to protect the Tianwu Emperor’s grave while he was in the Sky Dome Realm.
After he left, he would be too far to help, unable to do anything.

Fortunately, the old flood dragon was very direct and open-minded.
If Xiao Chen did not have the time to protect the grave, then he just had to chop it apart and toss it into the void, completely destroying it.

It was a remnant soul in the first place.
So after it finished speaking, it ran out of energy and disappeared, leaving only this dragon pearl in Xiao Chen’s hand.

Xiao Chen stretched out his hand, and the Universe Flags appeared in his grasp.
Then, he waved his hand, and the seventy-two flags shot out.
He formed hand seals and prepared to set up a restriction to seal this place.

“Interesting.
I did not expect that in the end, the Azure Emperor’s descendant would be the one to protect the first-generation Tianwu Emperor’s grave.
It seems like destiny truly exists.”

A carefree voice resounded.
Chu Chaoyun descended from the sky and arrived before Xiao Chen.

Chu Chaoyun wore the clothes of the ancient Tianwu Dynasty.
His expression today seemed extraordinarily solemn and respectful, entirely different from his usual carefree visage.

Xiao Chen felt somewhat surprised at Chu Chaoyun’s appearance.
However, that was just for a moment.
It was impossible that a descendant of the Tianwu Dynasty would not know about this.

“Do you want to open the Tianwu Emperor’s grave? If so, then you will not be getting what you want.” Xiao Chen flipped his hand, and the Lunar Shadow Saber appeared.

Chu Chaoyun’s lips curled up into a smile.
He stepped forward and said, “Don’t you wish to see if the first-generation Tianwu Emperor truly died? This is a secret that even I do not know.”

Xiao Chen stared at Chu Chaoyun.
The sharpness he unleashed formed a gentle wind, causing their clothes and hair to flutter.
The Sea Monarch Headscarf on his head helped him remain calm.
