205: Chapter 205 Farewell, Cold Moon Sword!

An immortal soul rapidly spun a giant hammer and smashed it ruthlessly onto Fairy Jiyue's fragrant back!

"Ugh... ah..."

Fairy Jiyue's screams, mingled with the sound of shattering bones, rose into the sky, making one's scalp tingle! Intense pain surged from her back, shooting from her tailbone straight to the crown of her head!

A person's energy is limited; Fairy Jiyue had focused almost all of hers on the duel with the twin sword souls, remaining completely unaware of the giant hammer striking from behind!

Fairy Jiyue was sent flying!

Fairy Jiyue's delicate body felt as if it had been crushed by a sledgehammer; wracked with pain, she couldn't muster an ounce of strength!

Suddenly!

An immortal soul spinning a spear emerged slowly from the Void Realm dozens of yards in front of Fairy Jiyue!

Fairy Jiyue's beautiful eyes trembled violently as a powerful premonition of death suddenly flooded her heart!

Fairy Jiyue desperately tried to stop her flying body, but her bones had already been shattered by the hammer blow; she couldn't move at all!

She could only watch helplessly as her body flew toward the immortal soul spinning the spear!

Tears shimmered in Fairy Jiyue's beautiful eyes, trickling down her exquisite cheeks like pearls before scattering into the cold night air, turning into a mist of tears that glowed with a moon-white halo!

Fairy Jiyue was in utter despair; she opened her eyes, looked quietly at the night sky, and murmured softly,

"Am I going to die?

I haven't personally slain that eunuch thief Azure Eagle to avenge my parents; I can't die yet!

Heavens, open your eyes and look at this cold-blooded world! Grant me one chance to kill Azure Eagle and avenge my parents, just once!"

Yet, the only response was the whistling cold wind in her ears and the "buzzing" of the spinning spear nearby!

"Forget it!"

Fairy Jiyue gently wiped away the tears shimmering in her eyes, a look of grim determination appearing on her beautiful face.

Fairy Jiyue slowly held the cold moon immortal sword horizontally before her eyes,

"Farewell, Cold Moon Sword. Thank you for staying by my side for all these years!"

The cold moon immortal sword emitted a metallic "buzzing" vibration, and ice-crystal-like tear tracks actually slid down the blade, transforming into blue snowflakes that drifted through the cold night air!

"Cold Moon Sword, I am sealing all my life's cultivation and Cultivation Technique within you.

If someone can help me avenge my parents,

Then you shall break the Seal and pass all my cultivation and techniques to your next master!"

As Fairy Jiyue finished speaking, her entire body erupted in brilliant white moonlight, and a fist-sized cold moon slowly emerged from between her brows!

Accompanied by a crisp metallic clatter,

The fist-sized cold moon turned into a white afterimage and slammed into the cold moon immortal sword!

"Cold Moon Sword, I hope we can meet again in the next life!

Farewell! Cold Moon Sword!"

No moonlight remained on Fairy Jiyue's body; she reverted to a normal young woman. It was as if, many years ago, she and her younger sister Snake Charming Lady were with their father, riding horses under the moon's glow, drawing their bows, and pinning a fleeing rabbit with a single arrow!

The laughter from years ago echoed in her ears once more. A long-absent smile reappeared on Fairy Jiyue's beautiful face, her eyes curving into crescent moons.

The final immortal soul, spinning its spear, suddenly exerted force through its feet and turned into an afterimage, charging toward Fairy Jiyue!

"Clang!"

The crisp sound of metal clashing and bones breaking rang out simultaneously; the immortal soul delivered a Turning Spear Strike, piercing directly into Fairy Jiyue's skull!

Boom!

A dull explosion suddenly rang out in the night sky of the Southern Region!

A mass of pure immortal power exploded from within Fairy Jiyue like a bomb!

Fairy Jiyue was instantly blown into a bloody mist, blooming over the Southern Region like a crimson rose radiating a blinding immortal light!

Fairy Jiyue—who had roamed the Central Province for over two thousand years, recognized as its "Flower on a High Ridge," and regarded by countless Central Province Cultivators as their cold goddess and dream lover—died!

Xingyuan City of the Star Continent stretched for tens of thousands of miles, resembling a ten-thousand-foot Dragon slumbering in the night!

The night was deep; moonlight flowed like water, piercing through the veil of clouds to cast a faint halo over the Star Continent's largest city.

Indeed!

This Xingyuan City was the capital of the Star Continent, the seat of the Imperial Dynasty!

The Xing Family of the Star Continent's Imperial Family had ruled the Star Continent for tens of thousands of years, their roots running incredibly deep.

The Star Continent was not originally called so; its original name was the Canghuang Continent, a place of exile within the Ten Earths where the local customs were fierce.

"What are you looking at?"

"So what if I'm looking at you?!"

A simple exchange like that could trigger a murder!

Although it was late at night, Xingyuan City remained brightly lit,

the sounds of clinking glasses and toasts echoing incessantly.

For no other reason than this:

All of Xingyuan City was celebrating the birthday of the Master of the Star Continent, Old Master Master!

Master was over thirteen thousand years old this year. For a Cultivator at the Peak Pseudo-Emperor Realm Great Perfection, this was considered a very long life; barring any surprises, this would likely be the last major birthday he would celebrate.

Xingyuan City was bustling with excitement; it could be said that every prominent Cultivator from the Ten Earths had arrived. Even the Imperial Families of the other nine lands had sent heavyweight figures like Crown Princes and Grand Elders to celebrate Master's birthday!

An old man with white hair and beard, wearing a star-and-moon robe, was already flushed from drinking. He was chatting with a group of old men, his mouth wide in a hearty laugh.

Indeed!

This old man in the star-and-moon robe was precisely the Master of the Star Continent, Master!

Suddenly!

At the banquet table, an old man with snowy hair and beard, dressed in a Golden Python Robe, suddenly underwent a drastic change in expression. His body trembled slightly, and his fingers tightened involuntarily, crushing the wine glass he had raised for a toast!

Shards of the wine glass splashed onto the birthday boy Master's face, and crimson blood instantly crawled across his skin like earthworms!

The old man in the Golden Python Robe was the Grand Elder of the Central Province Imperial Family, True Person Yun Yan.

The reason True Person Yun Yan lost his composure was that his most beloved Personal Disciple, Fairy Jiyue, had fallen! Most critically, the life-extending Cauldron he had painstakingly nurtured was gone!

Yes!

True Person Yun Yan had cultivated Fairy Jiyue so devotedly just so that once she entered the Integration Realm, he could violate her to extend his Lifespan by five hundred years!

Although five hundred years of Lifespan was negligible for a Pseudo-Emperor Realm powerhouse who could live for over thirteen thousand years,

But to an old man in his twilight years, every year counted, and five hundred years was an astronomical figure!

Silence!

Deathly silence!

The bustling and boisterous birthday banquet instantly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop!

"Your Majesty, I..."

Master's face, covered in earthworm-like streaks of blood, turned ashen, looking exceptionally eerie and terrifying under the moonlight! He raised his hand and abruptly cut off True Person Yun Yan!
