Chapter 478: 478: Revenge (Second Update)
“That’s right, but I can’t go on anymore! Mr. Xue, I have a favor to ask of you!”
Fei Bai paused, taking a few weak breaths, “I hope you can help me destroy Profound Wind Tower, and avenge the hundreds of lives from my Sword Control Villa.”
Having said that, Fei Bai looked at Xue An with eyes full of hope.
Unexpectedly, Xue An shook his head slightly after hearing this.
Fei Bai’s heart gradually sank.
At that moment, Xue An said indifferently, “Profound Wind Tower must be destroyed, but I am powerless to avenge you for this matter!”
Fei Bai’s expression turned gloomy, just as he was about to speak.
Xue An continued, “If you truly wish for revenge, then you should be the one to do it! After all, this is the great vendetta of your sect, and I am merely an outsider.”
Confused by these words, Fei Bai said bitterly, “But in my current condition, I probably won’t even survive tonight, how can I seek revenge…”
He stopped mid-sentence, stunned.
Because Xue An spread open his hand, revealing a luminous orb filled with powerful energy within his palm.
“Is this… essence blood?” Fei Bai whispered in disbelief.
Xue An nodded, “Yes, this is transformed from the essence blood of the Azure Dragon from Profound Wind Tower.”
Azure Dragon!
The name made Fei Bai’s gaze turn cold.
Scenes involuntarily appeared in his mind.
His several junior martial sisters were tortured to death by this Azure Dragon right in front of him.
Even now, the cries of his junior martial sisters and the triumphant laughter of the Azure Dragon echoed in Fei Bai’s ears.
And now, his essence blood had been transformed by Xue An into an orb of light.
No need to ask.
This Azure Dragon must have died at the hands of Xue An.
“I’ve seen many unspeakable scenes within this filthy soul, including those of your Sword Control Villa! I know how much you must hate him, so now I bestow his essence blood upon you! Use the essence blood of Profound Wind Tower to fight against them, as for each drink and peck, this is what’s called revenge!” Xue An said coolly.
Xue An’s words sent tremors through Fei Bai’s entire body.
At that moment, Xue An raised his hand.
The orb of light flew directly into Fei Bai’s chest.
Light enveloped Fei Bai.
The already severed and desiccated meridians began to revive under the light, and his injured organs started to heal.
Even Fei Bai’s crippled leg began to gradually recover under the nourishment of the essence blood from the Longevity Realm.
Of course, all of this was extremely painful.
But a satisfied smile appeared at the corners of Fei Bai’s mouth.
If pain could lead to his revenge, then let the pain be even more fierce.
After a few moments.
The light dispersed.
Looking at Fei Bai now, his aura was climbing steadily, quickly returning to his previous levels, and even made slight progress.
A robust Sword Qi burst forth from his body, even cutting through the thick clouds to create an opening.
Moonlight shone through the gap, casting a snow-white glow over the area.
Fei Bai’s face was solemn as he knelt on one knee to the ground.
“Sir above, Fei Bai will forever remember this act of rebirth!”
Xue An smiled and accepted his gesture.
Then Fei Bai stood up, eyeing Profound Wind Tower which had been stirred into commotion by his recent powerful Sword Qi, his expression utterly indifferent.
“Sir, please allow me to bring this tower down!”
Xue An extended his hand, making a gesture of invitation.
Fei Bai slowly raised his right hand over his head.
The currents of the air seemed to follow his movement, and even the falling snowflakes took on a deadly air.
Scenes from the past flashed before Fei Bai.
His childhood abandonment, later being picked up and raised by Wu Bucheng, learning the sword, and wandering the martial world.
Back then, he had begun to be called a prodigy of the Sword Dao.
There was a time when Fei Bai also believed he truly was a Sword Dao genius.
It was not until he met Xue An at the trial tournament that he realized there are always others better than oneself.
But at that time, he didn’t feel too much about it.
It wasn’t until Sword Control Villa was destroyed and he wandered the jianghu that Fei Bai began to understand many truths.
He had thought everything was like a fleeting reflection on water, beyond redemption.
But unexpectedly, Xue An gave him another chance.
Such a transformative experience made Fei Bai’s heart of Sword Dao incredibly clear and pure.
A faint smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.
Then, he swung down.
As his right hand fell,
a slash of Sword Qi that seemed to sever heaven and earth itself tore through the sky.
Crack!
After a thunderous noise,
Profound Wind Tower was split cleanly in two.
At the same time, under the residual power of the Sword Qi, over a dozen buildings behind Profound Wind Tower were also cleaved in half.
The might of this sword had broken through Fei Bai’s past Sword Dao, reaching an entirely new realm.
Mr. Xue watched and could not help but nod slightly.
From his return to the present, Fei Bai’s Sword Dao was the purest he had ever witnessed.
Now, the wooden structure of Profound Wind Tower slowly toppled to both sides.
Then, amidst the wind and snow, it collapsed with a boom.
“Who is it! Who dares to cut down my Profound Wind Tower!” a dozen figures charged out, shouting angrily.
The cultivation levels of these figures were mostly that of Loose Immortals.
Before Xue An could speak, Fei Bai coldly declared, “Sword Control Villa’s Fei Bai! Today, I will annihilate the entirety of your Profound Wind Tower!”
After speaking, his hands waved in succession.
A dozen dazzling beams of sword light swept across, heading straight for these figures.
So fast were they that these figures had no time to react.
But at that moment, a woman’s ethereal sigh echoed from afar.
With that sigh, a streak of black light flew over.
Crack.
The sword lights were instantly shattered by the black light.
Then, a woman clad in a bright red robe appeared on the scene.
“Tower Mistress!”
The people of Profound Wind Tower, upon seeing this woman, bowed and paid their respects in unison.
With a detached tone, the woman said, “I was away for but a few hours, and you let someone tear down the tower? Such a bunch of incompetents!”
The people of Profound Wind Tower all trembled.
Then the woman turned to Fei Bai and said coldly, “So, the people of Sword Control Villa haven’t been wiped out yet?”
With that, dozens of black streaks of light lashed out at Fei Bai.
From the moment this woman appeared, Fei Bai’s gaze had been fixed on her.
This woman, whose face seemed shrouded in mist, was the Tower Mistress of Profound Wind Tower.
She was the main culprit behind the annihilation of Sword Control Villa.
And she was the person Fei Bai most wanted to kill.
So, when the black streaks appeared, Fei Bai, instead of retreating, advanced. His entire being turned into a streak of sword light, charging directly at the woman.
“Seeking death!” The woman said coldly. The black streaks suddenly merged into one, forming a pitch-black spike that met Fei Bai head-on.
Boom.
After a muffled sound,
The black light was blasted apart.
Fei Bai also let out a muffled grunt, was sent flying dozens of meters, and the Sword Qi swirling around him flickered and then shattered with a snap.
But at the same time, the Tower Mistress waved her sleeve, and a black light many times stronger than before flew toward him, turning into a sinister black needle mid-air.
Fei Bai’s face was pale, and he rallied his entire body’s Sword Qi to confront the attack.
But compared to the overwhelming black light, his Sword Qi seemed weak and feeble.
However, just as the black light was about to hit Fei Bai,
a hand appeared out of thin air, catching the streak of black light.
