Chapter 534 It Was Still There
The sun rose and the moon set.
The West Lake had completely calmed down.
The army that had sealed off the West Lake for more than 36 hours had already completely evacuated a few hours ago.
Lin’an, which was quiet and misty, ushered in the morning sun once again.
Qin Weibai stood quietly at the top of the mountain, looked at the West Lake in front of her, and remained silent.
She had been standing there for a whole day without moving or speaking.
The rainbow that was destined to cause countless arguments had disappeared.
The boiling water in the lake completely calmed down.
But the Sword Energy that had almost covered the sky and earth was still flowing.
The incomparably dense Sword Energy kept gathering behind Qin Weibai.
Wherever the Sword Energy pa.s.sed, the s.p.a.ce shook and all of the West Lake was hazy.
That intense, indistinct feeling enveloped the entire Supervisory Inst.i.tution. Only by then had it just slowly disappeared.
In the morning, under the faint sunlight, everything was completely calm.
No one left the Supervisory Inst.i.tution.
Everyone was looking forward to Qin Weibai’s explanation.
They knew that Qin Weibai had invited an unprecedented invincible sword from the West Lake.
But even now, they had not seen what the sword looked like.
The divine sword stood in the void, and the Sword Energy surrounded Qin Weibai completely. She and the sword were extremely ethereal and mysterious.
Li Honghe stood quietly behind Qin Weibai.
His expression was still calm, but there was a trance in his eyes.
Ever since the rainbow had taken off that night, his mind had been in a trance.
A sword light had crossed tens of thousands of miles to form a rainbow.
This was the strongest sword light that Li Honghe had seen since he was born.
This sword light did not originate from a person, but from a sword.
This sword was incredible but real.
For Li Honghe, who had been using a sword all his life, that sword was simply a magic weapon that he had dreamed of.
The most important thing was that when the long sword had appeared and the sword light had shone on the dark night, he had clearly felt a familiar smell from the Virtual Sword.
All the Sword Energy in his sight was concentrated behind Qin Weibai.
She slowly turned around, and her dreamy face was pale and calm.
Li Honghe stared at her eyes and said word by word, “The Infinite Sky is there.”
He did not use a question.
It was a sentence of affirmation.
The Infinite Sky used to be a murderous weapon belonging to the Li family. But more than 20 years ago, it had been broken into countless pieces in the battle at the border. Li Honghe had taken the Li family out of Youzhou, settled in the border for many years, and found some pieces. Some of them had fallen into the hands of Kunlun City, and some had fallen into the hands of the w.a.n.g family of Beihai.
Was there still a part of it that had fallen into Qin Weibai’s hands?
But if they really added fragments of the Infinite Sky into this sword, how many would it take to let him clearly feel the existence of the Infinite Sky?
“Yes.”
Qin Weibai was silent for a while and then nodded.
The corner of Li Honghe’s mouth moved. Before he could say anything, a sharp and cold feeling completely shrouded him, with an undisguised killing intent, naked and fierce.
Li Honghe’s body was slightly stiff as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
Qin Weibai carried a sword on her back.
But at the same time, it was also an unknown and incomprehensible life.
This sword with life had expressed undisguised hostility to Li Honghe as soon as it had come into being.
It could even be said to be killing intent.
For example, the sword light had struck the madness back then.
Li Honghe’s heart beat rapidly, and he said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Whose sword is this?”
Qin Weibai looked at Li Honghe. Her eyes were calm and bright. “Now it’s in my hand, so naturally it’s mine.”
There was a kind of resistance that slowly rose behind her, but the sword hidden in the void did not react too much in the end.
“What about its past before you?” Li Honghe kept asking.
“Before me… it was Huangtu’s sword,” Qin Weibai said blandly after a moment of silence.
“Who?”
“Who?!”
Two voices rang out at the same time, and they spoke at the same time.
Dongcheng Hanguang and Li Honghe, who were walking nearby, took a step forward at the same time and asked this question.
The two of them stared at Qin Weibai, and there was undisguised absurdity in their eyes.
Qin Weibai glanced at Li Honghe and Dongcheng Hanguang with a faint look in her eyes. Then she smiled gently.
Her smile was wild and perfect. “You didn’t hear me clearly? Or do you want me to say more?”
“Huangtu’s sword?”
Dongcheng Hanguang stared at the back of Qin Weibai, and his voice was dry and stiff.
Li Honghe was silent for a while, then said slowly, “So, you used to be Dongcheng Huangtu’s woman?”
“Used to be”, he deliberately stressed the tone of these words.
“I’m Tianlan’s woman,” Qin Weibai said calmly.
Li Honghe nodded. He was a little slow and stiff, as if he didn’t know what to say. He stood there, and looked a little dull.
Qin Weibai looked at Li Honghe and asked, “Do you have anything else to say?”
Li Honghe shook his head.
His figure was thin and old. In the morning breeze and sunlight, he looked like a frozen statue.
After a long time, he smiled bitterly and said, “So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is. It’s actually like this, how can it be like this…”
It was not until this moment that he really understood what the Samsara Palace was, the hostility of Qin Weibai to him, and even where the hostility of this sword came from to him.
He took a step back and stood firm, then said in a confused tone, “You want to kill me.”
“You have experienced ups and downs in your life. You can be regarded as a miracle in all of the Dark World. When it comes to the designer, you’re the first person in Zhongzhou State in the past hundred years. You’re so generous, so bold, and so scheming. How can you be afraid of death?”
Qin Weibai’s voice sounded a little sad and cold.
“If I don’t want to give up, how dare I die?”
Li Honghe sighed softly.
“At least, you’ve succeeded,” Qin Weibai said slowly.
“They’re all illusions.”
Li Honghe seemed to gradually calm down and his tone was calm.
“But for me, it’s real,” Qin Weibai said word by word.
Li Honghe stayed silent for a long time before he said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “You’re right.”
“So you should die.”
Qin Weibai walked past him. “But I won’t kill you for the time being. I even hope that you can live a little longer. With your status, you should look at a different world, a different era.”
“That’s exactly what I want to see.”
Li Honghe said in a low voice, “Believe it or not.”
Qin Weibai walked past Li Honghe and looked at the living area of the Supervisory Inst.i.tution, which was about to be completed but collapsed again. After a moment of silence, she suddenly said, “I want to ask you for two people.”
What she said was that she wanted to ask for them, not borrowing them.
Li Honghe raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, “Who?”
“Qingye.”
Qin Weibai said slowly, “And… Qihuang.”
“Qihuang?”
Not only Li Honghe, but also Dongcheng Hanguang changed their expressions.
However, Li Honghe was surprised, while Dongcheng Hanguang was worried.
Li Honghe was not surprised that Qin Weibai would want Qingye. Among the people around him, Qingye was female, but her strength was vaguely the first of the Li family’s veterans. She was a real Half-step Invincible Realm expert.
But Qihuang…
Qihuang was also a Half-step Invincible Realm expert.
However, from the beginning to the end, he was a person that had been seriously ignored by the outside world.
When the Li family had been at the border, he had been unknown.
Even when the Li family had been at its peak, he had also been unknown to the public.
“What’s wrong?” Qin Weibai asked back.
Li Honghe smiled bitterly and replied, “I didn’t expect you to want Qihuang.”
“As the No.1 of the sacred guards, he’s worthy for me to ask for,” said Qin Weibai.
In the peak period of the Li family, there were a lot of Invincible Realm experts. Every generation of Invincible Realm experts had their own strongest team. The people who were united around the Li family’s G.o.d of War were called the sacred guards by the Dark World.
The current Fire Man and Yu Donglai had been both the sacred guards around Li Honghe in those days.
Qihuang had also been one of the guards.
However, he had not been Li Honghe’s, but Li Kuangtu’s guard.
Chief Guard!
Even in the Li family, these were the most high-level secrets.
Because even in those days, Qihuang’s ident.i.ty had not been exposed. Everyone thought that the chief guard beside Li Kuangtu was Fire Man, who Li Honghe had put beside him.
Li Honghe didn’t expect Qin Weibai to know this secret. But when he saw the sword behind her, he smiled bitterly and said, “Aren’t you afraid that you can’t control him?”
“Military Counselor will keep an eye on him. He doesn’t affect the overall situation,” replied Qin Weibai.
Li Honghe thought for a while, and finally nodded and said blandly, “All right.”
Qin Weibai took a deep look at him and nodded. She said, “I’ll come back in three days.”
Li Honghe asked subconsciously, “Where are you going?”
Qin Weibai did not look back. She just said blandly, “Try the sword.”
She pa.s.sed by Dongcheng Hanguang and hesitated for a moment. Then she softened her tone and said softly, “Grandpa, don’t worry about what happened to Minister Dongcheng. The Samsara Palace won’t sit by and do nothing. We’ll do it when it’s right.”
Li Honghe’s body was stiff for a moment, and his expression was strange.
“Ah, this, hey, ah, uh…”
Dongcheng Hanguang’s face looked even more wonderful. It was just like when Zou Yuanshan heard Qin Weibai call him brother-in-law, but Old Master’s feelings were obviously more complicated.
After Li Tianlan and Dongcheng Rushi got married, he must call Dongcheng Hanguang grandpa.
But the problem was that Li Tianlan hadn’t called him that before. But Qin Weibai had called like that as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
Old Master’s face turned red, and he looked like he wanted to laugh wildly. However, he felt it a little uncomfortable with Li Honghe. Hence, his face was twisted for a moment and he looked very embarra.s.sed.
“Thank you.”
Dongcheng Hanguang rubbed his hands and finally couldn’t help laughing.
Qin Weibai nodded and went down the mountain silently.
The black shadow flickered.
Military Counselor appeared behind Qin Weibai and followed her quietly.
A sword light suddenly appeared on the peaceful and bright West Lake.
Silently, all of the West Lake was shaking.
The large waves of water were violent but silent. They rushed up to the sky and went straight up about 1,000 meters.
The sword light was like a dragon, flying over the West Lake.
Colorful rays of light surrounded the waves that rose into the sky, which were incomparably gorgeous.
The void behind Qin Weibai slightly vibrated, and everyone felt the joy and appreciation of this sword.
Military Counselor was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly became extremely surprised. “This guy… is really…”
“He succeeded.”
Qin Weibai chuckled and said, “He’s the real Super Master of Samsara now.”
The colorful sword light in the air rose with the waves and fell down in an instant. Except for this, there was no other abnormal phenomenon.
Qin Weibai frowned and whispered, “Although I made a breakthrough, the injury is more serious.”
“How… how could this happen?”
Military Counselor was stunned.
Qin Weibai shook her head. “He’s still not prepared enough. He could enter the Invincible Realm, not for he was well prepared, but for he has understood that sword move.”
She paused for a moment before continuing to say, “You can send him back to Mount Shu. Don’t worry about me.”
“But boss, you are…”
Military Counselor wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
Qin Weibai shook her head and said, “Don’t worry, no one can hurt me now.”
Until Qin Weibai’s figure disappeared, Li Honghe stood in the same place and looked in the direction where she left. He was silent.
“The sword has been hidden here all the time. Haven’t you found it?”
Dongcheng Hanguang hesitated for a few times, and finally couldn’t help asking the question in his heart.
Li Honghe shook his head and suddenly said, “What kind of sword do you think it is?”
“How would I know?”
Dongcheng Hanguang thought of the incredible sword light and shook his head with a wry smile.
“Yeah, who knows?”
Li Honghe smiled with a complicated smile. “That’s Huangtu’s sword.”
Dongcheng Hanguang’s expression changed, but he didn’t say anything.
Li Honghe didn’t say anything either.
In fact, there was one thing that he had not said.
More than 20 years ago, he had been the top Invincible Realm expert of the Li family and held the Infinite Sky.
But he was also the top Invincible Realm expert of the w.a.n.g family of Beihai.
The sword on Qin Weibai was too ethereal and unpredictable. But when he felt the Infinite Sky, he could vaguely feel that the sword was still there. He also felt a little aura of Human Emperor from the sword.
