Chapter 5763: Li Ming’er
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
He came to the Shi Kingdom with a mindset of giving it a try.
An Immortal, wandering in the Outer Domain.
Heading towards the Shi Kingdom.
The journey could probably fill a book.
Especially surviving to reach the Shi Kingdom, that was truly defying fate.
It seemed all his luck in cultivation was spent on the road.
Unfortunately, upon arriving at the Shi Kingdom, he couldn’t activate the teleportation array.
Eventually, he gave up hope.
However, his journey was not in vain.
He met his fellow traveler and settled down in the capital of the Shi Kingdom.
But neither of them were Emperors, making survival difficult.
During a mining expedition, the couple met their end together.
They left behind a daughter, the current Ming’er.
When her parents perished, Ming’er was still an ordinary mortal.
Abandoned on the streets, unnoticed by anyone.
Luckily, she had a good appearance.
She was sold to the Heavenly Palace Tianfu and became a maid.
Enduring hardships since childhood.
For survival, for freedom.
She constantly gathered universe crystals, serving tea and water to those big shots, arranging celestial banquets.
Only for a handful of universal crystals as tips.
Because with enough universal crystals, she could buy her freedom.
So, even now, she remained as greedy as ever.
She didn’t even accept the universal crystals given to her by Sword Immortal Tonghe.
In her world, those were for her people, not something she earned herself, so there was no sense of accomplishment in keeping them.
Hearing this, Jian Wushuang began to understand.
Though Sword Immortal Tonghe didn’t explicitly state it, he understood too.
The life of a maid was worthless.
Even if she saved up enough universal crystals, she couldn’t escape her cage.
Facing his seventh tribulation, Sword Immortal Tonghe’s cultivation stagnated. Returning to his homeland, he found his only son missing.
Utilizing his bloodline connection, he traced it back to the Shi Kingdom.
In the end, he only found his granddaughter alive.
Seeing his young granddaughter serving tea and performing menial tasks, he was filled with immense rage.
But after recognizing each other as grandfather and granddaughter, he pleaded on behalf of those who had oppressed and suppressed her.
The cage remained unbroken.
It needed to be broken by oneself.
Afterward, Sword Immortal Tonghe understood.
His granddaughter was unwilling to leave the Shi Kingdom, so he settled there.
No wonder there were no servants in the mansion.
Because the young girl would buy batches of servants, only to grant them their freedom afterward.
Great kindness!
Jian Wushuang sighed inwardly.
It was unclear whether this young girl was lucky or unlucky.
On the one hand, she had such a grandfather, a Universe Master at the Sixth Tribulation, a huge backing.
On the other hand, she had suffered a tragic childhood.
She should have been a lively and arrogant young lady, full of vitality.
But instead, she had become such a miserable sight.
“Li Ming’er!” Jian Wushuang called out.
The girl turned around, about to bow to him again, but he stopped her with a hand.
He looked at the girl and said with a smile, “Girl, I’m going to spar with your grandfather later. Let’s see who can win, guess right and there’s a reward!”
“Wow, really?” Li Ming’er couldn’t believe it.
She was just an ordinary person, unable to gauge Jian Wushuang’s strength, nor did she know who her grandfather was.
In her world, both of them were super strong.
At first, she was a little excited, rubbing her hands together, then she said, “I bet on you to win!”
Jian Wushuang couldn’t believe it and pointed at himself.
Li Ming’er nodded in confirmation.
This caught Jian Wushuang off guard.
Was it because he had just given her a favor, she thought he could win?
But then, through a faint Thought power, Jian Wushuang heard Li Ming’er secretly communicating with Sword Immortal Tonghe.
She was planning to let this esteemed Universe Master at the peak of the Sixth Tribulation intentionally lose to an Emperor.
This amused him and seemed rather ridiculous.
Sword Immortal Tonghe blushed, but still indulgently nodded.
For the sake of his granddaughter, losing to an Emperor wasn’t out of the question.
“Alright, let’s get started!” Li Ming’er, not knowing where, brought a small stool and took out some golden brown pastries from her pocket, eating while waiting for the two to start.
Sword Immortal Tonghe raised his hand, and the guest hall instantly transformed into a snowy mountain.
Li Ming’er was momentarily stunned, then her face lit up with joy. She carefully tucked away the pastries and began playing with the snow on the ground.
Childlike innocence.
“Elder, please forgive me!” Jian Wushuang slightly bowed.
With a flick of his finger, Sword Immortal Tonghe exerted his divine power outward. That withered finger instantly emitted a golden light.
“I’ll suppress my divine power to around 100,000. This is the limit for an Emperor. Come at me!”
With a forceful movement of his right hand, Jian Wushuang conjured a divine sword with blue flames.
The Jueyun Sword, which had accompanied him for a long time, was already broken.
He felt embarrassed to bring out a broken sword to compete with such a powerful figure.
So he resorted to using a formless sword.
The formless sword condensed from the power of the Starry Sky was no less powerful than a Universe Treasure.
100,000-fold divine power surged.
Jian Wushuang’s brow twitched.
Pure divine power, indeed, could crush even Sword Immortal Tonghe.
But the augmentation of swordsmanship was no joke.
Each sword of Sword Immortal Tonghe contained over 500,000-fold divine power.
Jian Wushuang couldn’t rely on his Beast God’s power and had to be cautious.
A finger represented a sword.
Swish!
An invisible blue divine sword, like ripples in the void, calm yet extremely cunning.
Although the Sword Qi of Sword Immortal Tonghe was powerful, it couldn’t touch Jian Wushuang.
He could entangle but couldn’t actively attack.
For a moment, there was a stalemate.
“Young Friend, give it your all!”
As soon as Sword Immortal Tonghe said this, he pointed upward, countless ripples emerged, then turned into numerous Sword Qi, sweeping towards Jian Wushuang like a tidal wave.
The core strength of this tide definitely exceeded 500,000.
With each step forward, the power would multiply.
Jian Wushuang dared not retreat and could only confront it head-on.
Hum!
His fists clenched, the blue divine sword horizontally in front of him, he shouted explosively, divine power surging instantaneously.
Now his strongest combat power was still his divine power.
Because there was too much enhancement from the Beast God Weapon!
All thanks to the armor condensed by the Skysight Heavenly Chessboard.
Capable of guarding his divine body.
“Beast God’s power!” Originally, doubling the Beast God’s power had already reached its peak.
But now he was fully exerting triple.
The armor operated madly, the chessboard appeared under his feet, and the divine power instantly exceeded 600,000.
Finally, it stopped at around 680,000.
With just a light wave of the blue divine sword in front of him, that incoming tide was instantly extinguished.
Sword Immortal Tonghe’s eyes widened in shock, the Emperor’s body shattered instantly.
Without suppression, he was a Universe Master at the Sixth Tribulation.
Although Jian Wushuang’s move was powerful, for a Universe Master at the Sixth Tribulation, he could easily break it with a casual move.
But Sword Immortal Tonghe didn’t think so.
Jian Wushuang was just an Emperor!
He was a Universe Master at the Sixth Tribulation.
If he were a Universe Master at the Fifth Tribulation, perhaps he wouldn’t need to suppress his divine power, he could exchange blows with Jian Wushuang.
