Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 497

“Y-you want to kill me?” The chilling intent sent shivers down Lu Tianming’s spine, making him temporarily forget the pain below.

After all, that thing could grow back, but if I die, that’s it!

“Let’s put aside your evil intentions from earlier. Just the fact that you inherited the Peach Blossom Immortal Sovereign’s Legacy means you have no reason to live!”

“Everyone should eliminate you!”

Luo Qingwu sneered.

“Peach Blossom Immortal Sovereign?”

Hearing that, Zhou Dalang finally understood why his partner suddenly turned into that.

I told you! My relationship with my wife is as solid as gold, how could anyone who I’ve only met once break us apart?!

Turns out, this was all the result of some evil technique from the Peach Blossom Immortal Sovereign!

As thoughts raced through his mind, Zhou Dalang breathed a sigh of relief.

But thinking about the two doing… activities in front of him made him feel like he just swallowed a dead rat—truly unpleasant and suffocating.

No matter how you slice it, Lu Tianming’s that dog really betrayed him!

“Luo, shameless! I’m the Dao Child of Void Truth View! If you kill me, the Ancestor won’t let you off!”

Lu Tianming gritted his teeth, holding back fear like a beast cornered.

He thought he was foolproof, but now it felt like he was just digging his own grave, full of regret.

At this point, he had to drag out the Void Truth View’s Ancestor to scare Luo Qingwu, hoping it’d have a deterrent effect.

After all, everyone outside knows that the Void Truth View’s Ancestor is recognized as the strongest Immortal Sovereign in the Clear Sky Domain, having built a long-standing reputation over the years.

Most importantly, compared to that Ancestor, the Eternal Immortal Sect’s Eternal Ancestor was nothing, so he didn’t believe Luo Qingwu could ignore that!

“Hmph, even if he’s here, I’d dare to kill you right in front of him!”

Luo Qingwu huffed, raising her hand and slamming down.

The terrifying power of the Immortal Sovereign surged like the sea, crashing down on Lu Tianming in an instant.

“No…”

Lu Tianming’s terrified wail was filled with utter despair.

Boom~

The ground shook violently, dust swirling.

The Dao Child of the Void Truth View was slapped into oblivion!

Even though Lu Tianming had various sect treasures to protect him at the moment of death, they were useless against Luo Qingwu’s absolute power, and in the end, he turned into dust disappearing into the air.

“Lu Lang!!”

Witnessing Lu Tianming’s tragic demise, Xu Chunlian let out a heart-wrenching cry, but the next second, her cries abruptly halted, confusion plastered on her face, as if she were questioning why she reacted that way.

With Lu Tianming dead, she returned to normal, free from the effects of the Yin-Yang Absorption Technique.

Seeing the middle-aged man critically injured and dying on the ground, Xu Chunlian first let out a piercing scream, then rushed to support him.

“Husband, what happened? Which bastard hurt you like this?!”

Hearing that, Zhou Dalang’s mouth twitched, “Wife, what do you think?”

Xu Chunlian froze, seemingly recalling something, a flash of shame crossing her eyes as she blushed and said, “I… I don’t know…”

“Wife…”

“Enough, I know what you want to say! But can I be blamed for this? I was forced!”

Xu Chunlian sat on the ground, filled with grievances, crying out.

Zhou Dalang fell silent.

Indeed, he had witnessed Xu Chunlian and Lu Tianming together, but the thing was, she was controlled, so the fault wasn’t on her—she was a victim too.

“Sigh…”

Zhou Dalang closed his eyes, letting out a deep sigh.

When he opened them again, he managed a forgiving smile, “It’s okay, I forgive you.”

“Dalang, I knew I didn’t misjudge you!”

Xu Chunlian was deeply moved, and then suddenly lowered her voice, saying,

“Actually, that Lu guy isn’t impressive at all, he can’t compare to you one bit!”

Zhou Dalang felt slightly reassured, “That’s good…”

At the same time, seeing the crisis averted, Tang Yaoyao excitedly ran toward Luo Qingwu, “Master!”

Luo Qingwu pinched her cheek, annoyed, “Look at you, running around outside! If I hadn’t arrived in time, you surely would’ve been harmed by that scoundrel!”

Once those words were out,

Tang Yaoyao pouted, casting a resentful glance at Luo Qingwu, the meaning unspoken.

Seeing this, it seemed Luo Qingwu recalled something and retracted her hand, a hint of embarrassment flashing in her eyes.

Then her gaze fell on the couple, scolding, “Heart-Eating Twin Ghosts, you’ve caused so much trouble, and now threaten my disciple! Don’t you think you deserve death!?”

Boom, a pressure of Immortal Sovereign level surged forth.

“Luo, Luo Immortal Sovereign, spare us!”

Zhou Dalang and Xu Chunlian, shocked awake, shouted in fear.

“Hmph, too late.”

Luo Qingwu smirked coldly and raised her hand, slamming down.

Bang!

The screaming ceased abruptly, as two clouds of blood mist rapidly dispersed.

In the Clear Sky Domain–>

The notorious Heart-Eating Twin Ghosts no longer exist from today!

“Fairy Tang, you’re hurt. Let me help you heal!” The Great Mushroom King rushed over, hands glowing with a gentle green light.

“Thank you, Little Black!” Tang Yaoyao expressed her gratitude.

“Glad you’re okay.”

Ye Junlin approached.

“Yeah,” Tang Yaoyao lowered her head, not daring to meet Ye Junlin’s gaze.

Thinking back to the noises she heard that day outside, her heart raced, feeling so embarrassed.

Ye Junlin noticed something too, clearing his throat to mask his own awkwardness, quickly changing the subject,

“Luo, who is this Peach Blossom Immortal Sovereign? Is she really that worth all your reactions?”

Hearing this, Luo Qingwu’s expression turned serious, “Ye, you may not know, the emergence of the Peach Blossom Immortal Sovereign’s legacy means something huge. If that scoundrel Lu Tianming becomes a threat, it will spell disaster for the entire North Cold Immortal Domain!”

Then, she recounted the deeds of the Peach Blossom Immortal Sovereign.

“Whoa, there’s actually such an evil technique in this world? This Peach Blossom Immortal Sovereign is quite the prodigy!” Canglang Jun exclaimed.

He was born in the ancient Kunlun Realm and had seen many talents, but he’d never heard of someone like the Peach Blossom Immortal Sovereign.

“Such a person truly is deranged.”

Ye Junlin was thoroughly shocked, his astonishment evident.

Indeed, the world had never lacked exceptional talents.

Not only did one climb the path to immortality by living off others, but they also established a technique that made women crazy about them, and worst of all, they were keen on taking others’ partners, driving many men to wear green hats.

Who can stand that?

By such reasoning, Lu Tianming, who inherits her legacy, truly deserves to die. If he grows into a threat, he might just be another Peach Blossom Immortal Sovereign.

“Now that Lu Tianming is dead by my hand, this will surely alert the Ancestor of the Void Truth View. With his nature, he will definitely blame my Eternal Immortal Sect. I must return to the sect to prepare immediately.”

Luo Qingwu said solemnly.

“Is he strong?” Ye Junlin asked, interested.

Luo Qingwu replied gravely, “He was already recognized as the strongest Immortal Sovereign in the Clear Sky Domain many years ago, ranking among the top ten in the North Cold Immortal Domain, with unfathomable power!”

“I see…”

Ye Junlin’s eyes flickered with interest, thinking about how many punches such a strong being could take from him.
