Imperial Treasure

Chapter 1363 - 783: This Is a Witch

This sentence is chilling and empty, and that glance with a smile raised Dongfang Bubai’s eyebrows, making the others silent.

"Ten Commandments, you’ve worked hard these years."

Sui Yi gently spoke, making Ten Commandments eyes red all at once, "My lord... you"

Could it be that Sui Yi is about to use some unbelievable secret technique again?

This won’t do.

"My lord, your body shouldn’t be damaged any further... otherwise how would I explain to the ancestors?"

Ten Commandments knew what kind of person Sui Yi truly was when he saw her absorb the Statue of the Gods and Cangwu Fragments at Mountain Hua.

Hence when entering the Lost Lands and encountering people from the Sky Asking Tower, he understood why this place existed and thus infiltrated it willingly, waiting for Sui Yi to appear.

Indeed, he saw Sui Yi that day outside the nunnery...

Later the two came into contact, leading to everything that exists now.

But he did not want to witness the scene at Mountain Hua again.

Sui Yi disregarded Ten Commandments and walked towards the towering structure that had formed.

With each step she took, Dongfang Bubai slew ten people!

Blood covered the ground, and each step was slow.

"Many years ago, someone asked me, who are you?"

Sui Yi untied the band from her waist, removed the outer robe, and let it fall to the ground with her fingertips.

"This question is troubling... I don’t even know who I am."

Sui Yi walked to the bottom of the giant tower, raising her face to let the light from the tower fall upon her.

And it also fell upon her face.

"Many years later, I know who I am, yet I have forgotten what those who once asked me this question look like..."

"And later... it turned out I wasn’t even human anymore."

Under that light, her body was permeated by it, revealing transparent skin, bones, with only countless ethereal vapors escaping...

"Canggu Demon Tower, no life forms, no world destruction, only punishes causality trapping****, ninefold reincarnation for nine thousand plants, turning back to see those on dead-end roads."

Sui Yi closed her eyes.

Many could see two hands and two feet each bound by chains from her already seventy to eighty percent transparent body, one binding around the waist, two hanging from the collarbones, one piercing through the neck, and finally, one on the brow.

Chains penetrated the bones.

A total of nine collarbone chains.

The nine chains extended upwards, connecting to each layer of the Ninefold Demon Tower.

The tower’s light seemed to perform a CT scan on Sui Yi.

This CT was unrelated to the physical but concerned the past and present.

Slash!

Dongfang Bubai tore a black-clad person’s head, holding it as she turned to look at Sui Yi’s collarbone chains and suddenly remembered hearing Gong Jiu talk about Sui Yi’s past in modern times... she was imprisoned and shackled as a child, so there was a circular imprint on her ankle, she was indifferent then, after all, who hasn’t had a tragic past...

At this moment, she suddenly realized that this person’s past might not be the same as others.

And at this moment, Sui Yi suddenly turned her face, looking at the roof of Sky Asking Tower, saying: "Didn’t you want to know what I truly am, she did not tell you, but you can see for yourselves."

See, see what?

The man with white clothes and silver mask squinted his eyes.

Looking at Sui Yi opening her eyes... the pitch-black pupils quickly dimmed, the sparkle representing life disappeared, and the body skeleton that could be projected by the CT rapidly turned gray.

If before she had already lost the vitality that makes a person.

Then, at this moment, she abandoned the shell of a person as well.

Without the shell, what is Sui Yi considered?

A life form?

No longer, with no skin, without a face, oh, no, it’s without skin, without flesh, not even considered a life form.

Then what is she after all.

She once said, you lost the most important thing as a witch.

What is that thing?

The sky’s black curtain lowered deeply, the fractured lamp scattered faint light, poisonous gas everywhere, now only Dongfang Bubai continued slaughtering, including Pang Ban and others had lost the ability to fight.

Even Sui Yi did...

Snow Qiannxun leaned against the wall, witnessing Dongfang Bubai under the mad encirclement of black-clad men, her flying long hair and red clothes, numerous red lines spinning and cutting... like a charming yet unparalleled king.

The king to whom she succumbed never wanting to awaken.

Roar～～～

Dongfang Bubai looked up and roared loudly!

Sound attack exploded simultaneously, and after slaughtering hundreds beside her, she cast an intense gaze towards Sui Yi.

Sui Yi, let me see, see what a true witch looks like!

Just as the blood from those hundreds shot out explosively, this blood suddenly all paused, during that paused blink, it coagulated, from crimson to gray in an instant.

And this instant, for Sui Yi already vanished repeatedly, was an incomparably long process.

The brow suddenly gained a certain scarlet, this scarlet frantically expanded, the faded bones were occupied by silver white, like snow akin to jade, spreading from bones, starting from the brow.

A person who had disappeared, in that hundred percent vanished node terrifyingly blooming again...

Like withered flowers deprived of cosmic vitality blooming anew.

The inner garment inexplicably shattered into dust at that moment, bringing with it an aura of dignity and terror from the body’s constitution.

The stone slabs on the ground also invisibly crumbled into soft powder.

Yet the inner garment did not fall to reveal her body.

Until she spread her arms, palms facing the sky, her mouth unmoving, yet reaching from soul to soul...

"Witch... I have returned again."

Swish...

The sealed black curtain, countless men in black, the towering Sky Asking Tower, the buildings in the Lost Lands...

The invisible force, not light nor actual energy, seemed both an idea and a state, omnipresent, permeating, bypassing Dongfang Bubai and others, covering everything.

Then...

Destroy!

Atop the easternmost city wall of the eastern district, stands a man in white. No need to describe his beauty or nobility; four words alone suffice.

—Imperial Lineage.

A royal of unparalleled martial arts talent that combines numerous martial arts worlds, later described by many as—Born of Royalty, Monarch of the Sword, Immortal Flying Beyond the Heavens, Ye Gucheng.

Ye Gucheng looked at the towering Sky Asking Tower ahead, watching it transform from majestic to shrouded in black, to its current state of collapse, and the destruction of buildings in a ten-mile radius.

The Power of Heaven and Man, the ability of the Void-breaking.

"The strongest moment of a Void-breaker is when heaven and earth open a time-space tunnel for him, at just that moment do we come closest to the universe... but over these years, this power has drifted far from us..."

"Now, at last, it’s seen again."

Ye Gucheng’s voice was slightly hoarse, his speaking pace unhurried, befitting the most standard grace of the imperial family.

But who was he speaking to?

White-robed as snow, Ximen Chuixue.

"If I hadn’t come, you might still meet this master who forcibly reached the Void-breaking level in the Lost Lands," Ximen Chuixue said calmly.

"Have you seen him?"

Ximen Chuixue expressionless: "Last night, briefly."

Last night?

Ha ha~

Probably also met with that Elder Tianji last night.

Ximen Chuixue, Elder Tianji, Dongfang Bubai, plus Sui Yi.

Four people shook the foundation of the entire Sky Asking Tower.

Quite puzzling.

Ye Gucheng sighed lightly: "No wonder it was defeated."

Ximen Chuixue: "The defeat of Sky Asking Tower doesn’t include you, actually you and I both know... this is a scheme of Sky Asking Tower, others naturally understand too... Pang Ban went in, for Lang Fanyun, Lang Fanyun the same, Yan Jingan entered the city, for those people, as for the others... no one else entered from the Heavenly List, each had their own purpose from the Black List, but how many truly believed Sky Asking Tower? Sky Asking Tower itself is probably well aware."

Ye Gucheng; "Frankly, this scheme has nothing to do with us, so our duel also settles here."

"I am waiting for her to open the tunnel."

With a flip of his wrist, the sword was sheathed; with a step, he darted away as a point of light, disappearing from view.

Ximen Chuixue stood alone.

As for victory or defeat?

Who knows.

Anyway, when Ximen Chuixue also took flight, the city wall splintered into countless sword marks, collapsing with a boom,

And in the Sky Asking Tower area... Lu Xiaofeng, covered in dust, patted himself off, watching the collapse of the city wall, also seeing that streak of white light rising...

"Seems Ximen did manage to stop Ye Gucheng."

Hua Manlou: "I think we should focus more on the situation at hand."

Everyone was still alive, but the black curtain cage had forcibly been opened, and all buildings turned to dust, transforming confined streets into a vast, flat wasteland.

The omnipresent toxic scents scattered with the wind.

Though their Inner Strength had been significantly drained, everyone suddenly felt alive again.

Yet the men in black remained, motionless, and although the Sky Asking Tower was gone, that black-clad silver-masked figure hovered in midair, holding a spinning glass Ninefold Demon Tower.

Below was Sui Yi, who had reshaped the Witch Body.

Surrounding were scattered, rather disheveled masters.

Her body gleamed in a white light, and as she bent down, it seemed dispersed... Lu Xiaofeng widened his eyes, trying to see, but couldn’t, for the swirling dust enveloped her, making it clear her body was barely covered yet revealing nothing more...

It was an enticing scene.

Annoyingly, she seduces unconsciously, casually shamelessly bending to pick up her previously discarded robe, draping it over herself and tying the belt.

Leisurely, unhurriedly.

As if these people were all dead, all dust, all air.

At this moment, Lu Xiaofeng instead envied Hua Manlou, thinking how blissful it is to be blind and see nothing, thus avoiding such a desire to see what cannot be seen, and surely, he did not consider himself lustful, seeing even Yan Jingan and the others lost in a trance?

It was the natural attraction of human beings to another form of existence...

Is this a Witch?

No breath, no warmth carried by humans, no aura, no presence, she was so ethereal, thinner than paper.

After dressing, Sui Yi looked towards the person in the sky.
