Chapter 432: Chapter 430: Reveal (5 updates, make-up for the 1st chapter!)

Meanwhile, deep within the Mountain of the Divine Medicine, at the location of the One Slash Palace disciples.

As they looked upon the sky-covering and earth-blanketing Demon Beast horde, leaving not a single path to escape, the disciples of One Slash Palace fell into complete despair.

They knew that today, without a doubt, they were going to die.

“If we really must die, then let’s fight to the death!”

“If I draw my sword, heaven and earth shall be extinguished!”

“The might of a single slash, sweeping across the world!”

Many disciples were trembling with excitement as if they had cast aside the fear in their hearts, leaving only a sense of free-spirited defiance.

Instead of attacking blindly, they quickly retreated and regrouped at one point, over twenty-eight thousand people forming a circle, layer upon layer of defense.

Above their heads were Senior Brother Zhou and Nangong Yu.

“Junior sister, you go first,” Senior Brother Zhou said.

Nangong Yu shook her head slightly, her starry eyes shimmering with light.

“There’s nowhere to run now, and we can’t run.”

Senior Brother Zhou fell silent then said, “It seems that Eastern Ancestor and the others are not planning to step in and save us.”

“Thousands of years ago, we faced the same Sixth Order Demon Beast. Nearly all those disciples died. We can’t rely on luck. If we truly can’t carve a bloody path, then the only place to go is Yellow Spring,” Nangong Yu said.

“Hahaha, then let us enter Yellow Spring together!”

Senior Brother Zhou suddenly burst into laughter, his face revealing a fierce and grim look, as he stood directly in front of Nangong Yu.

“Senior Brother Zhou, you don’t need to do this,” Nangong Yu sighed.

“You are the daughter of the Palace Master, the pride of our Young Palace of One Slash Palace. Even in death, I, Zhou, shall die in front of you!”

Senior Brother Zhou, upright and principled, drew his sword and struck towards the approaching Demon Beast.

At the same time, Nangong Yu gritted her teeth, glanced at the Jade Slip in her hand, her starry eyes filled with determination, and pressed down once more.

“Puff puff puff!”

Before the Jade Slip could crack, Nangong Yu had already spat out three mouthfuls of fresh blood.

“Junior sister, if you keep pressing down, you’ll hurt your foundation!” Senior Brother Zhou exclaimed, his face changing.

Nangong Yu smiled tragically, “Foundation? If I lose my life, what’s the use of a foundation?”

As her words fell, she pressed down again.

With each press, she continued to spit blood. Her originally pale face turned even paler, completely devoid of color, as if the Jade Slip was absorbing all her vitality and spirit.

“Buzz~”

As she pressed down, the Void above, just like before, unleashed an overpowering pressure, emerging once more.

With that pressure appearing, it shattered the Void, annihilated countless Demon Beasts below, and among those Qingming Beasts arriving once again from the Void, thousands were killed or injured.

All the disciples were waiting, waiting for Nangong Yu to activate the Jade Slip, that attack to emerge, and to earn them a bit more time.

However, before her hand could appear, Nangong Yu spewed a large mouthful of fresh blood, her vision becoming a blur.

The numerous figures of the Demon Beasts began to blur, and so did the figure of Senior Brother Zhou.

In that instant, she felt as though she was in a dream, within that blurriness, a young man dressed in white clothes appeared, standing in front of her at an unknown time.

Senior Brother Zhou was also standing in front of her, but for some reason, the young man’s slender silhouette provided an unparalleled sense of security.

Compared to him, Senior Brother Zhou seemed much weaker.

Another crack appeared on the Jade Slip, but Nangong Yu could no longer hold on. Although the pressure surged, her hand never appeared again.

Nangong Yu struggled with all her might to stay conscious. She pulled out a pill and threw some more into her mouth. The blurriness before her eyes gradually cleared.

“There really is someone…”

As her vision finally cleared, Nangong Yu’s eyes widened and her small mouth gaped open in disbelief.

In front of her, there truly stood a figure clad in white.

The figure was tall and stood erect in the void, with long hair cascading over their shoulders, swaying with the wind and the onrush of the Demon Beasts.

It seemed that the young man sensed Nangong Yu’s gaze, for he turned around.

The moment Nangong Yu saw his face, she felt as if the heavens and earth had lost their color.

“So handsome…”

Even with the crisis of life and death at hand, Nangong Yu couldn’t help but have this thought in her heart.

It wasn’t that she was infatuated, but rather she knew it was useless to think about anything else with the army of Demon Beasts right there. It was somewhat liberating.

Moreover, the young man’s face was truly extremely handsome, even somewhat otherworldly.

“You are Nangong Yu?”

The young man spoke and cracked a slight smile.

“Yes…”

Nangong Yu met the young man’s gaze, then hurriedly looked away. The deep, dark abyss in his eyes was like a vortex that seemed capable of drawing her in.

With the young man speaking up, Senior Brother Zhou, who had been ready to fight to the death in front of Nangong Yu, also turned his head abruptly.

The moment he saw the young man, Senior Brother Zhou’s face changed, and he immediately exclaimed, “You are not a disciple of One Slash Palace! Who are you???”

Senior Brother Zhou couldn’t believe it; he hadn’t felt the young man’s arrival at all. And by the look of it, the young man must be capable of flying in the Void, undoubtedly a powerhouse above Dragon God Realm.

“It’s you?!!!”

Before Su Han could speak, Senior Brother Zhou’s face dramatically changed again, and he hastily retreated, placing himself between the young man and Nangong Yu.

“You know me?” the young man asked, astonished.

“I don’t know you, but I know who you are!”

Senior Brother Zhou responded solemnly, “Recently, disciples of other sects were screaming and bellowing, and we, the disciples of One Slash Palace, knew that in Mountain of the Divine Medicine, apart from the Top Ten Super Sects, there were outsiders. And the deaths of other sect disciples were all caused by this person… and that person is you!”

“I see.”

The young man nodded and said calmly, “You’re right. I killed them.”

This white-clothed young man was none other than Su Han, who had always been observing from afar.

The massacre of disciples from the Top Ten Super Sects was bound to come out, and Su Han had no intention of hiding it.

However, he had no intention of letting his identity be known.

Seeing Su Han admit it, Senior Brother Zhou’s face changed again. He hadn’t expected Su Han to be so bold as to admit it so readily.

Nangong Yu, in turn, glanced at Su Han now and then, her starry eyes cast downwards, lost in thought.

“Who exactly are you? Why are you attacking the Top Ten Super Sects? One Slash Palace has not provoked anyone as far as I am aware!” Senior Brother Zhou said, mustering his courage.

He felt bitter inside. The army of Demon Beasts alone was a headache, and now here was this God of Killing.

“I had no intention of acting against One Slash Palace, and what you should be worrying about right now isn’t me, it’s them,” Su Han said, pointing at the large dark clouds in the distance.

“You won’t kill us?” Senior Brother Zhou blinked in confusion.

Seeing his expression, Su Han couldn’t help but laugh, “Are you planning on making me kill you?”

Senior Brother Zhou didn’t respond but stared at Su Han for a while before finally cupping his fists in salute, “Junior Zhou Jie, on behalf of the disciples of One Slash Palace, I thank you, Senior!”
