Chapter 1215: How Would I Dare to Offend You?

“Sit properly!” Seeing how Chu Yang was behaving, Xue Leihan finally reached his limit and glared at him.

Why is this fellow so different from his past life?

The moment he knew that it was a misunderstanding, he turned so cheeky and insolent immediately.

“Err, why don’t you just continue with your story instead of bothering me?” asked Chu Yang.

Xue Leihan took a deep breath and tried to suppress his annoyance. Taking his eyes off him, he watched the few sparrows that were currently pecking at food instead attentively. “120,000 years ago, a huge battle suddenly broke out in the Nine Heavens!”

“Two people battled each other for nine years! In those nine years, the battlefield spanned a radius of 45 billion kilometers!” narrated Xue Leihan word by word.

“Cough cough cough cough cough…” Chu Yang started to cough. His whole face turned red and he couldn’t even catch his breath.

He certainly choked pretty badly this time.

Two people actually fought for a whole nine years! And the battlefield had spanned a radius of 45 billion kilometers…

For a moment there, Chu Yang felt like there was a lack of oxygen in his brain and he choked on his wine. It sprayed from his nostrils and resulted in his coughing fit, as though someone who had contracted tuberculosis.

A black line formed on Xue Leihan’s face. He pretended not to hear him, treating the bastard in front of him like a pile of smelly dog feces and completely ignored him. He went on with the story by himself.

“That battle was truly heavens-shaking and earth-shattering! Everywhere they passed by was reduced to piles of rubble. A few powerful experts, thinking that their cultivation was high enough, went to watch the battle but were reduced to dust by gusts of wind 50,000 kilometers away! The two of them subsequently reached a stalemate.”

Chu Yang was hoarse and exhausted from his coughing fit.

“And later on, they finally reached my territory. Just as I was filled with worry… They stopped.”

“Only to hear one of them say, ‘You’re not my match.’ The other one replied, ‘Neither are you mine.’ Then both of them said in unison, ‘I’ll be able to defeat you in another few years.’ And then both of them burst into laughter.”

Xue Leihan raised his eyebrows. “Those two lunatics weren’t even aware of how many hundred billions of humans and beasts had become collateral damage from their battle these nine years and actually laughed very happily.”

Chu Yang finally managed to curb his coughing.

This stupid story is so goddamn unfathomable. And it doesn’t even seem to have anything to do with me?

“Then, one of them asked, ‘Where do you intend to go?’ The other one asked as well, ‘What about you? Where are you intending to go?’ The first person answered, ‘I’m going to look for a place where I can bring my wives to have fun.’ The second person said, ‘I’m thinking the same thing. I’m also going to look for a place to bring my wives to have fun.’ Then, both of them said at the same time, ‘You had better not goddamn go to the same place as me!’”

“Then, the two of them glanced at the battlefield. The first person said, ‘We went too far. It’s all your fault; if you had just nicely let me beat you up, nothing would have happened.’ The second person replied, ‘Then why didn’t you nicely let me beat you up?’”

Chu Yang started to yawn.

Why is the conversation between these two getting more and more heretical? And there’s even a somewhat roguish tone to it. There’s also absolutely no substance or content; it’s making me want to fall asleep listening to this.

“The first person said, ‘But the huge tribulation has been caused and there’s nothing we can do about it.’ The second person replied, ‘Indeed. In another 130,000 years, this place will be invaded by the Extraterrestrial Demons. Originally, they would’ve been able to defend against it but now, because of us, they have no more hope whatsoever.”

Chu Yang started to cough madly again.

Extraterrestrial Demons!

F*ck his granny!

The Extraterrestrial Demons that the Dharma Supreme cooked up actually exists?

If the Dharma Supreme himself knew, he would probably also be really speechless.

Xue Leihan continued with his story.

“At that time, one of them said, ‘Should we bother ourselves with this?’ The other answered, ‘It’s so obvious that you’re rude and ignorant. The moment your father1 saw, I knew this was heaven’s will.’”

Chu Yang pursed his lips, thinking to himself, “This second person is even more ridiculous; saying that others were destined to die when he himself had killed them. And that it’s actually heaven’s will?”

And even peppering his speech with ‘your father’ non-stop; which part of his tone sounds like an all-powerful expert? Totally even more crass than your father!

“The first person said, ‘What heaven’s will? What a load of bull.’ The other person said, “This place naturally formed a primordial world by itself; an incredible and rare talent is going to be born. There’s so much blood energy here, it can’t possibly go to waste.’ The first person asked, ‘Are you saying that they deserved to die?’ The other one answered, ‘If they didn’t, why would I be fighting here?’”

When he reached this point, Chu Yang was truly speechless.

“The first person then asked, ‘Then what do you think we should do?’ The other one replied, ‘Surely we must leave something behind. After that, no matter what happens, it won’t be any of our businesses anymore.’”

“The first person then said, ‘Sounds good.’ And then the two of them waved and summoned me over. The first person said to me, ‘You heard all of that, right?’ The other person said, ‘If you didn’t, then you’re really deaf.’”

Xue Leihan let out a wry laugh. “The two of them were being a comical act but I didn’t dare to be insolent at all; I very respectfully answered that I had heard them. Only then did I notice that out of these two, one of them was dressed in inky black robes and the other in snowy white robes. Both were fine and dashing young men, one of them with a heretical aura and the other with a wild aura. The one with the wild aura had long hair past his shoulders; the one with the heretical aura, even his breathing had an unorthodox air to it…”

“Then the two of them took their own sweet time before they tossed eight tiny metal fragments to me. The heretical young man puffed and something seemed to be blown away by him. He said, ‘Leave this for the one fated with it.’”

“After that, they left me some instructions and left. When they were leaving, I seemed to hear a woman’s voice say, ‘Yin and yang are only formed when there are male and female.’ That heretical young man nodded incessantly and smacked the few metal fragments once before he said surreptitiously, ‘Yes, yes, yes.’ Then, they disappeared in a flash.”

No matter how silly Chu Yang was, he could also tell that those eight tiny metal fragments seemed to be the Nine Tribulations Sword? But why were there eight fragments?

“After that, I picked up those eight metal fragments and realized that they formed a sword when put together. I used it as my sword until 20,000 years later when I followed their instructions and came to the Nine Heavens Continent to look for the fated ones. But when I was here, I discovered that everyone here was filled with greed and fighting viciously amongst themselves. People schemed against me constantly… At this point, the voice of that heretical young man suddenly appeared in my mind. He said, ‘When the hearts of people are condemnable, they ought to be killed.’ As such, in a fit of anger, I folded the Nine Heavens, intending to destroy this world.”

“But at this point, the heretical young man’s voice rang in my mind again. ‘Hey, I haven’t finished yet. When the hearts of people are condemnable, they ought to be killed; but when the hearts of people can be changed for the better, we should edify them whenever possible.’ But at that time, the Nine Heavens had already been half-destroyed by me.”

Xue Leihan had a wry smile on his face. “I hastily tried to put it back together but I could only shape it into a nine-storey pagoda. Furthermore, in my haste, it was not stable at all; the moment I put it together, it collapsed again. And so, I folded the dimension once more, forming the three Heavens. For some reason, the eight tiny metal fragments in my bosom were shaking non-stop. Then, they flew out from my bosom and assembled themselves into a sword in front of me before dissembling once more and disappearing in a flash into this continent.”

“However, when the sword disappeared, this continent that had been folded into three Heavens by me also finally stabilized.”

“Then, for some reason, the legend of the Nine Tribulations Sword was birthed.”

When Xue Leihan reached this point, he drank four to five cups of wine in succession before he smiled wryly. “Everyone knows that the person who folded the Nine Heavens is the master of the Nine Tribulations Sword, but only I know that I’m not! Other than using the sword for 20,000 years and cultivating the spiritual awareness of the sword into a Sword Spirit, I am not the master of the Nine Tribulations Sword at all! The generations of Nine Tribulations Sword Masters are the masters of the sword.”

“But the true master of the Nine Tribulations Sword is but only one — the man who wields the sword through the heavens when all returns to their origin!”

Xue Leihan’s scorching gaze fixated on Chu Yang. “And you are exactly at the point where all returns to their origin — the ninth Nine Tribulations Sword Master! In other words, you are the one whom those two had chosen. Now, you should understand why I came specially to explain to you, don’t you…”

He smiled bitterly. “I can neither kill nor offend you. Yet I cannot help you either. When you’ve misunderstood me… How can I not explain myself to you?” Xue Leihan, the all-powerful expert who had folded the Nine Heavens, heaved a heavy sigh. “…How would I dare to mess with you!”

Chu Yang was in a stupor after hearing all these.

He finally understood now.

There was probably still an enormous secret concealed within the Nine Tribulations Sword.

It definitely didn’t stop at just the Nine Tribulations Sword Technique!

“I understand now,” replied Chu Yang solemnly as he took a deep and chilly breath.

Xue Leihan said, “Therefore, you must reach my level within ten thousand years in order to battle the Extraterrestrial Demons!”

Chu Yang gave him the wryest smile from the bottom of his heart. “Brother Xue, how old are you this year?”

Xue Leihan was silent for a moment as he calculated. “Slightly below a million.”

Chu Yang nodded heavily. “Bro, you’ve cultivated for a million years in order to reach where you are now. Yet you expect me to overtake you within 10,000 years… to battle the Extraterrestrial Demons. Right now, I can’t even go up to the Nine Heavens Imperial Court… Don’t you feel that this is kinda… you know?”

Xue Leihan said seriously, “I’m speaking the truth.”

Chu Yang replied with equal seriousness, “So am I.”

They looked at each other in silence.

“I don’t care,” said Xue Leihan. “Now, I’m going to explain to you about your past life.”

Chu Yang stretched a little and slumped onto the jade table, saying somewhat idly, “Go on.”

“Your past life is something that you have really experienced.” Xue Leihan continued, “When you got the sword tip of the Nine Tribulations Sword, I sensed it at once and came down to take a look. Yet when I did, I was immensely disappointed — You had only gotten the sword tip and nothing else. This was completely different from the other generations of the Nine Tribulations Sword Master. Yet you’re the most important generation, so how did this happen? Therefore, I observed you in close detail.”

“But as I did, I got even more puzzled. This Nine Tribulations Sword Master was too unfortunate. I checked the Heavenly Secrets, only to see a complete mess; I was unable to predict your future at all. Finally, during that time at the Wind Thunder Platform, the time-space dimension went into terrible disorder.”

“After that, I discovered that everything had returned to where it had started. As for why you had to re-do it all over again, I was completely puzzled as well. But at that exact moment where time-space dimension had gone into disorder, I could sense the divine consciousness which that heretical young man had left behind shake violently for a moment before it disappeared. If my guess is right, he should be the cause of it.”

Xue Leihan held out his hands. “It has nothing to do with me at all. Furthermore, I can neither save you nor stop it from happening.”

“Everything returning to where it started… This means that all those things that happened in your past life have never ever happened. You can take it as a dream.” Xue Leihan asked, “Do you understand now?”

Chu Yang looked at him in innocence. “Do you want to hear the truth?”

Xue Leihan smiled. “Of course.”

Chu Yang held out his hands in resignation and moaned, “To be frank, I’m ten thousand times more confused now than when you haven’t explained anything!!”
