Chapter 429: I Considered You a Brother, but You Want to Sleep with My Sister?
"He was killed by Brother Tianling."
Ye Tianxi choked out.
"...In that case... *Sigh*..."
Kong Lindao was at a loss for words.
Regarding a matter like this, it wasn’t Meng Qianqiu’s or the others’ place to interject.
Kong Lindao said no more. Instead, he directly entered Nirvana, burning his innate Talent to condense a full five drops of Origin Essence Blood.
In an instant, Kong Lindao’s Battle Power plummeted by over ninety-nine percent. His strength, once approaching a level of eight, fell directly to the Breaking Six tier.
Not only that, but he seemed to have been crippled, instantly aging by sixty or seventy years.
However, he didn’t seem to care.
And he wasn’t the only one; none of the Cultivators present believed that Kong Lindao was truly finished. On the contrary, they looked at him with even greater respect.
Only those who knew when to commit and when to let go could attain true, great fortune.
To others, this was an act of nearly crippling one’s own Talent, but Kong Lindao wasn’t worried at all that he wouldn’t be able to rise again.
This mentality was strikingly similar to Ye Tianling’s back then.
Ye Tianling felt as if he were watching a new star slowly rising.
The five drops of Origin Essence Blood coalesced, burned for a moment, then gradually extinguished, transforming into five teardrop-sized Blood-Colored Gemstones.
Ye Tianling reached out and took them. A ray of blood-red light shot from between his brows, directly absorbing the five gemstones and sending them into the Blood-Colored Crystal Coffin for safekeeping.
’This should be enough. Given its Life Chart and Ability, two drops are actually enough to awaken Yuchan and Yueling. But... where is the Forgotten Dust World now? And does it even still exist?’
Having obtained the Nirvana Origin Essence Blood of the Immortal Phoenix Peacock, a lingering obsession in Ye Tianling’s heart felt as though it had been severed. His entire Essence, Qi, and Spirit underwent a distinct transformation.
"Brother Lindao, I will give you a drop of my Lifebound Essence Blood in return."
As Ye Tianling spoke, he was about to condense a drop of Origin Divine Blood, but Kong Lindao refused, saying, "There’s no need. According to Tianxi, you avenged Tianyun, but she repaid your kindness with enmity. I didn’t know about this before. Now, if I were to accept your Divine Blood, I wouldn’t be able to transform with a clear conscience."
"Believe me, I will rise again soon, and I’ll even surpass you! My true target isn’t you, but that woman in the Flame Battle Armor from the Emperor Soul Race who nearly killed me with a single glance."
A look of yearning appeared in Kong Lindao’s eyes.
Only then did the crowd realize that Kong Lindao’s sights were no longer set on the current Divine Children, but on those ’Young Venerables.’
An existence like that—if not a ’Young Venerable,’ what else could it be?
Ye Tianling saw Kong Lindao’s pride, as well as his supreme Strong Heart.
He finally understood that even among the Divine Children of this New World, there were such heaven-defying and resolute individuals.
"Brother Lindao, thank you for the lesson," Ye Tianling said, his tone firm. "In the future, let’s crush those Young Venerables who treat us like pigs for slaughter."
"Done!"
A confident smile spread across Kong Lindao’s face. He raised his hand and clapped it against Ye Tianling’s.
And this scene was witnessed by all the Saint Sons, Saintesses, and Divine Children present.
Xia Xinyue, Yao Ling, Yao Lun, and the others were all deeply moved, as if they were witnessing two bright stars rise from the darkness to shine with absolute brilliance.
"Brother Tianling, you must be careful of Lin Tianyan. His Life Chart is incredibly resilient."
Ye Tianling’s heart sank at Kong Lindao’s warning, and he immediately grew serious. "I will be."
Kong Lindao looked relieved. He let out a long breath, then walked over to Ye Tianxi and extended a hand, his eyes filled with compassion.
Ye Tianxi, however, seemed oblivious and remained kneeling.
Ye Tianling walked over, his gaze finally softening a little. He said, "Little Sister Tianxi, get up. I forgive you."
Ye Tianxi’s delicate body trembled, and fresh tears welled in her eyes. She reached out her hand, and Ye Tianling took it, pulling her to her feet.
In that moment, she felt as if she were being protected by the entire world, an inexplicable feeling that was truly hard to describe.
It was as if she had returned to the past, to that time when she would run after Ye Tianling with a runny nose, calling out "Brother Tianling."
"Your temperament is too extreme, and your emotions are easily swayed by the Demon Heart. If you run into anything you can’t handle in the future, remember to find me. I’ll help you take care of it."
Since Ye Tianling had chosen to forgive her, he no longer held any reservations and was instead very sincere.
"Mm... I will. Brother Tianling, I will definitely earn Mei’Er’s forgiveness. Back then, Mei’Er also lost the person closest to her, but she and I walked two different paths... I was too useless, that’s why I let the Demon Heart invade..."
Ye Tianxi was filled with self-blame. Only then did Ye Tianling realize that she had always been searching for family, for the affection and protection she lacked.
"The Demon Heart... is not as simple as you think."
Ye Tianling let out a heavy breath and patted Ye Tianxi’s shoulder.
The Demon Heart.
What was the Demon Heart?
It was also something that could drive him into a state of hysterical madness.
But for the sake of power, he had to force himself into Entering Demon again and again, to conquer the Demon Heart again and again.
Because the path that the Little Dragon Girl, Ji Yueqi, had pointed out for him was a path of Demon Slaying the World.
Take this time, for instance. If he hadn’t been dominant, he would have died when he ran into Xia Fansong.
If he hadn’t been forceful, he couldn’t have seized the Dao Fire, and his Samadhi True Fire and Karmic Fire would not have leveled up. Without that evolution, he likely would have lost his fight against Kong Lindao—the odds would have been ninety percent against him.
If he had lost, he wouldn’t have obtained the Immortal Phoenix Peacock’s Essence Blood and would have lost his one chance to save Lin Yuchan and Ye Yueling.
If he had lost, Ye Tianxi would likely have escaped. Kong Lindao would never have made the sacrifice of his Origin Essence Blood to reawaken her sisterly affection, and she would never have realized how the Demon Heart’s madness was influencing her, nor would she have truly repented.
This was the difference between being strong and being weak.
Sometimes, strength truly could dictate everything and avert tragedies that were otherwise destined to happen.
Ye Tianling felt a pang of melancholy, but it only served to further strengthen his Dao Heart.
"Brother Tianling, I’m taking Brother Lindao back now. This place has become somewhat dangerous... You take care."
After a good while, Ye Tianxi choked back her sobs and stopped crying.
With red and swollen eyes, she stepped out of Ye Tianling’s embrace and said her goodbyes.
"Alright. You take care too. After this incident, your Heart of Myriad Phenomena and Red Dust will move a step closer to Perfection. When the time comes, Mei’Er will surely understand that you were acting under the influence of the Demon Heart. The three of you can still be the best of sisters."
"Mm."
Ye Tianxi agreed, then went to Kong Lindao’s side, preparing to support him by his arm.
"I don’t need help. I’m not as weak as you think. The Great Dao Void Profound Yellow Tripod Cauldron has been protecting me."
Kong Lindao smiled too.
He was still cool and carefree, his jade-like handsomeness and extraordinary elegance undiminished.
As for the matter with Xia Fanqian, no one looked at him oddly anymore.
"Tianling Divine Son, we’re leaving too. You take care as well."
Kong Daoze and Kong Daoxi had also been taught a profound lesson, and their gains and realizations were immense.
Kong Daoze felt he needed time to internalize what he had learned.
Kong Daoxi, on the other hand, had fallen deeply for Ye Tianling’s blend of dominance and tenderness. Her Immortal Phoenix bloodline stirred restlessly, as if she were about to go into heat.
She tried her best to hide it, but even so, when she spoke, her eyes were like limpid pools, brimming with affection.
Ye Tianling, of course, noticed the thoughts of this beautiful little peacock maiden, Kong Daoxi, but he chose to ignore them.
’While he wouldn’t mind a few pleasant rounds of Yin Yang Harmony, now really wasn’t the time.’
"Little Peacock, we’ll meet again. There will be plenty of opportunities, don’t be in a rush," Ye Tianling said with a smile.
Hearing this, Kong Lindao stumbled. Even he, who remained unfazed by honor or disgrace, was so staggered by what Ye Tianling said to Kong Daoxi that he nearly coughed up a mouthful of old blood.
’I thought of you as a brother, and you’re trying to sleep with my sister...’
Kong Lindao was utterly speechless.
But he didn’t say anything. His sister was grown up; whatever she chose, he would let her be.
’After all, Ye Tianling wasn’t a bad choice, was he?’
...
