Martial God Asura

Chapter 6584: Let the People of the Sacred Mansion Judge

“It looks like you have me cornered. I need my defensive formation to withstand your Thorned Flower Sea Formation’s oppressive might, but if I don’t release my defensive formation, I’ll become a punching bag for your Weapon of Divine Curse,” Jie Tianran calmly remarked.

“Jie Tianran, I don’t want to do this either, but I can’t turn a blind eye after learning about your deeds.” Jie Nianqing channeled her spirit power into her dagger as she prepared to shoot it at Jie Tianran.

Shoosh!

A golden light suddenly pierced through Jie Nianqing’s chest and shattered the dagger before her. Taking a closer look, it was a golden dagger identical to what Jie Nianqing had manifested. However, it had over three hundred golden runes inscribed on its surface.

Jie Nianqing’s Weapon of Divine Curse was manifested with her own strength, whereas, Jie Tianran’s Weapon of Divine Curse was manifested using his treasures. He had prepared this hand a long time ago and was merely waiting for a time to strike.

Shoosh!

A formation chain surged out from the ground and bound Jie Nianqing. It was another treasure that emanated an extremely old aura. It has been buried here for a long time now.

Jie Tianran’s Weapon of Divine Curse morphed into a ray of golden light and swiftly sliced through the Thorned Flower Sea Formation, cutting it open. Then, it returned into his hand.

“Nianqing, I know why you chose to meet me at the Asura Valley. You asked me many years ago why I was reluctant to step in here; I secretly told you that the Asura Valley’s energy curbs me, makes me uncomfortable, and weakens me. You wanted to use the Asura Valley’s energy to one-up me.

“I was lying. The Asura Valley doesn’t affect me in the least. Rather, I have long concealed a Weapon of Divine Curse I constructed using a treasure here. If anyone dares to fight me here, I’d have the advantage,” Jie Tianran said.

“You were already guarded against me back then?” Jie Nianqing was shocked.

They were still a harmonious couple back then. Jie Ranqing wasn’t born yet, so there was no friction between them. Yet, Jie Tianran had already prepared a hand to guard against her.

She suddenly felt all the happiness between them was a lie all along. Perhaps she had never truly understood Jie Tianran before.

“Nianqing, you have become strong. I wouldn’t have been a match for you in a normal fight. Unfortunately, you don’t understand the importance of remaining vigilant, even against your spouse,” Jie Tianran said.

“Have you ever thought of me as your spouse? Cut the hypocrisy! Do whatever you want to me. I’d like to see if you will kill me here, or plunder my bloodline and cripple my cultivation like what you did to our daughter before using me as bait for our grandson,” Jie Nianqing sneered.

Jie Tianran walked up to Jie Nianqing and gently touched her face. His finger flowed down to her neck, her shoulder, and her arm.

But Jie Nianqing stared at him in contempt. “Why bother putting on an act? Don’t you feel disgusted?”

“Hah...” Jie Tianran chuckled, though it was hard to discern what he was feeling.

He took out a talisman paper and plastered it on Jie Nianqing’s left arm. The talisman paper fused into her left arm, and a huge formation that felt even more intimidating than the Weapon of Divine Curse surfaced.

“You...” Jie Nianqing stared at Jie Tianran in shock and fury.

That huge formation was her secret hand, but Jie Tianran had sealed it off with his talisman paper.

“NIanqing, I have underestimated you, but you, too, have underestimated me. Were you planning to commit a double suicide with me?” Jie Tianran asked.

Jie Nianqing glared at Jie Tianran, but she was helpless now.

“Ah, right.”

Jie Tianran hurled a talisman paper into the sky. The talisman paper transformed into a flood of energy that enveloped the world, emanating energy ripples as it searched for something. Under the energy ripples, a sliver of light appeared in the underground.

He reached for the sliver of light. An item rose from the ground and flew into his hand.

It was a mirror.

Jie Tianran formed a hand seal, and the mirror recorded the earlier conversation between him and Jie Nianqing.

“I’m surprised you hid it underground instead of in the sky. How meticulous. Were you planning to use this item to indict me? It’s a pity you have been outmaneuvered.” Jie Tianran clenched his fist and shattered the mirror into bits.

Most world spiritists could easily construct recording formation, but the content of the recording formation could be easily fabricated as well.

This mirror was an immemorial treasure that recorded events, but it could not be tampered with. Anything recorded by the mirror would be taken as the absolute truth. With it, she could expose Jie Tianran’s evil deeds before the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.

“Nianqing, you wanted to have me judged by the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, but I can tell you right now that they won’t dare to deal with me even if they learn about my deeds. They will only remain subservient to me, for they don’t have the power to oppose me.

“I was the one who bestowed power upon them. They are counting on me to rise to greater heights. The reason I have refrained from revealing the truth is merely because it doesn’t reflect well on me or the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion,” Jie Tianran said.

“Cut the crap! I must have been blind to have ever trusted someone like you. I concede my defeat. Do whatever you want to me,” Jie Nianqing said as she averted her gaze.

“I love you, Nianqing. How can I bear to hurt you? I was forced to do this because you kept trying to corner me, but even so, my feelings for you remain the same. I can’t bring myself to take your life.”

Jie Tianran took out a token and tossed it into the sky. Then, his voice echoed throughout the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.

He called for everyone, except for those in essential positions, to gather at the square.

Then, he turned to Jie Nianqing and said, “Nianqing, you believe yourself to be the righteous one. You’d turn against your loved ones for the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. Let me teach you a valuable life lesson then. We shall see if the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion remembers what you have done for it. Let’s see how they will judge you and determine your fate.”

Jie Tianran carried Jie Nianqing up and began making his way to the square.
