Legend of Swordsman

4801 Liu Ya Heavenly Emperor Runes

Chen Qing was horrified and almost opened his mouth subconsciously, but Jian Wushuang covered his mouth with his hand.

“Don’t make a sound.”

Cheng Qing nodded and did not dare to make a sound.

The wine pot that Yang Jun kept was filled with wine. After fighting for so long, there was still more than half of it left.

Yang Jun removed the cork and drank to his heart’s content with the other three Emperors.

Di Qing woke up from his coma. When he saw the four Emperors drinking, he was shocked and quickly moved to Jian Wushuang.

“Hurry, let’s go!” Di Qing said in a low voice, his eyes full of panic.

Jian Wushuang nodded. Although Emperor Liu Ya and Emperor Yang Jun were old acquaintances, it did not mean that they were safe.

After all, they were the ones who first had the idea of entering the Heavenly Court to search for treasures. It was already very fortunate that they could safely withdraw now.

Immediately, the five figures prepared to leave the Heavenly Court while the four Emperors were drinking.

“Stop there.” Emperor Liu Ya’s eyes shot out a cold glint. “You want to leave just like that after coveting the people of my Heavenly Court?”

Cold sweat trickled down from everyone’s temples. The pressure from the Emperor was too vast, making them feel like they had fallen into an ice cave.

“Liu Ya, you can kill them, but not that Little Friend,” after taking a big gulp of wine, Yang Jun pointed at Jian Wushuang and said.

“Why?” Emperor Liu Ya asked.

“It’s because that Little Friend has an affinity with us and bears great responsibilities,” Yang Jun said mysteriously.

Emperor Liu Ya did not refute him. He looked away from Jian Wushuang and at Di Qing, Chen Qing, and the others.

At that moment, they all looked at Jian Wushuang in the face of death.

“Senior, you can’t kill any of them.”

Just as Emperor Liu Ya was about to attack, Jian Wushuang’s calm voice was heard and he stood up slowly.

He had lost an arm and had not fully recovered. His body was shaking, and his face was pale.

“We’ve been hunted down by the outside world before, and we accidentally entered the Heavenly Court by chance. We didn’t come here on purpose to covet it. Besides, we didn’t do anything to harm the Heavenly Court. It’s too unreasonable to kill us just like that.”

In the hall, only Jian Wushuang’s calm voice echoed.

When Emperor Liu Ya heard this, he laughed coldly. “If he doesn’t have any coveting thoughts, then why did he touch my True Body?”

“I, I…” Di Qing looked at Jian Wushuang for help as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

He frowned slightly and quickly thought of countermeasures in his mind.

After a while, Jian Wushuang raised his head and said, “Senior, it was indeed our fault. We wanted to see the Emperor’s real face, but we couldn’t help but touch the Emperor’s True Body. We are guilty.”

At this point, he turned to Di Qing and said calmly, “Di Qing, cut off an arm.”

Di Qing was stunned at first, but then he nodded without any hesitation.

This was the way out of death that Jian Wushuang had found for him. At the price of one arm, he could exchange it for a way out.

He did not hesitate to swing his palm at his arm, but he soon realized that he could not cut it down at all.

Jian Wushuang’s heart sank when he saw that. It meant that Emperor Liu Ya did not intend to let them live!

Emperor Liu Ya who was suspended in the air snorted coldly, “You want to settle this matter with just one arm?”

From Emperor Liu Ya’s cold tone, it was obvious that he was not going to let them go. However, Jian Wushuang’s eyes were calm and he said, “Yes, just one arm.”

Whoosh!

An unparalleled Emperor’s pressure swept out and almost crushed them into dust in an instant.

Then, Emperor Liu Ya raised his arm and dragged Jian Wushuang up in the air.

The indescribable feeling of suffocation brought him close to death.

“You’re not afraid of me?” Emperor Liu Ya’s emotionless voice resounded.

Jian Wushuang looked straight at him and said in a hoarse voice, “I’m afraid, but nothing can be solved by fear. Instead of being afraid, it’s better to find the best solution.”

The Heavenly Court was deathly silent, so silent that one could hear the sound of breathing.

After an unknown period of time, the stone-like Emperor Liu Ya moved. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. “This kid is not bad. I have my eyes on him.”

The three Imperial Emperors looked at each other and pouted. “Don’t give me that. We’ve even a liking to him before you.”

“Stop bullsh*tting. You guys can’t even save yourselves. What help can you give him?” Emperor Liu Ya’s face was filled with disdain. He then looked at Jian Wushuang.

“You’re just to my liking, Kid. I want to give you a great opportunity.”

Hearing this, Jian Wushuang was a little dizzy, but he reacted immediately and shook his head, “I’m not talented enough… I’m afraid I can’t take it. It’s best to forget it…”

The atmosphere froze. Everyone was shocked, even the three Emperors.

An Emperor, even if it was the obsession of an Emperor, would personally give an opportunity that was enough to plunge countless Heavenly Regions into chaos and countless Grand Yan Immortals into madness. It was a supreme and unattainable existence.

But now, he was actually rejected!

Everyone was puzzled, but Jian Wushuang was thinking about it. There was no such thing as an opportunity without a reason. If one wanted to get it, he had to pay a corresponding price.

If he were to receive the great opportunity from Emperor Liu Ya, there would definitely be a corresponding trust waiting for him.

Emperor Liu Ya was stunned when he heard his rejection. However, he immediately shouted angrily, “You don’t know how to appreciate my kindness. You have to agree to it today even if you don’t want to!”

With that, his virtual shadow suddenly dimmed. Then, countless wisps of dark green brilliance surged out from his body and directly entered Jian Wushuang’s body.

The Heavenly Court trembled and was collapsing rapidly.

“Listen up, Kid. My last obsession is about to be completely destroyed. The great opportunity I’m giving you is not something that ordinary people can endure or sense.”

“Now, I’ll give you my final obsession and Comprehension. Try to Comprehend it well.”

Emperor Liu Ya’s final obsession was collapsing and dissipating. He looked at Jian Wushuang with his golden eyes. “If you reach that point, don’t forget to stab old man Zhen Wuyang for me. Consider that my ask.”

“Liu Ya Heavenly Emperor Runes can be comprehended and used, but it can’t be used according to my path.”

Jian Wushuang could no longer speak. It was as if a heat that could even burn his divine soul was exploding in every cell of his.

Strands of irresistible external force poured into his body, leaving indelible marks in his mind and divine sense.

His broken arm was growing rapidly with the terrifying force.

The five dark green words ‘Liu Ya Heavenly Emperor Runes’ turned into a secret pattern. Along with the momentum, it carried the aura of the ancient Emperor and lit up in Jian Wushuang’s divine sense.
