Chapter 1108: A Promise With the Demonic Peacock
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Feeling Qingfeng Li’s presence, the Demonic Peacock Empress awakened, her beautiful eyes showing confusion.
“How did you defend against the Heavenly Dao?” she asked. Her face was clearly pale, and her voice was weak.
Smiling slightly, Qingfeng Li shook her head and did not give her the answer she wanted.
Qingfeng Li was full of secrets that he did not want the Demonic Peacock Empress to know.
Seeing that Qingfeng Li would not answer her question, the Empress said, “Please help me and remove the golden seal.”
Qingfeng Li and said, “I am only a half-step into the Spirit King Realm. I can’t remove it.”
She did not seem to mind. Blinking her eyes, she said, “Even if you are weak now, you can take it off once you reach the Spirit King Realm.”
“What would I get for helping you?” he asked while smiling.
Qingfeng Li would not do things that would not benefit him. Helping the woman in white meant that he would face an extremely large risk of disobeying the will of the Heavenly Dao.
“I can give you an immortal level technique. If you practice enough, you will become an immortal,” she winked her beautiful eyes as she said to Qingfeng Li.
In her opinion, immortal level techniques were the most powerful. There was no way the young man would refuse her. However, what happened next shocked her.
Qingfeng Li shook his head and refused her, “I am not interested in an immortal level technique.”
For others, immortal level techniques were extremely rare and hard to procure. However, Qingfeng Li did not care as he already had two immortal level techniques–the Celestial Spirit Chant and the Mortal Purgatory Body.
Upon hearing Qingfeng Li’s refusal, the Demonic Peacock Empress’s expression changed. She would never have thought that Qingfeng Li would straight up refuse an immortal-level technique.
“What do you want then?” she asked Qingfeng Li. Her beautiful face was filled with suspicion.
After thinking briefly, Qingfeng Li said, “When I reach Spirit King Realm, I can take it off for you. But you must be my bodyguard for three years.”
Qingfeng Li’s thought process was simple. He did not lack in self-cultivation techniques, and the thing he needed the most was a bodyguard.
Qingfeng Li did not overestimate himself. Perhaps he was strong on Earth, but in the eyes of masters from other planets, he was frail.
If immortals of distant planets or dimensions appear, they could kill Qingfeng Li with one blow.
Although Qingfeng Li was strong, he could not compare himself to immortals.
The Demonic Peacock Empress’s expression changed as a murderous look appeared in her eyes. The young man was too overconfident in asking her to be his bodyguard, as if he was courting death.
In the ancient era, the Demonic Peacock Empress was the empress of the demonic world. She was notorious for being able to defeat immortals on Earth. Nobody had ever dared to ask her to be a bodyguard. Qingfeng Li was the very first.
Would the Demon Empress be the bodyguard of somebody? Obviously not, as she had her pride and dignity.
“Beauty, neither pride nor dignity is worth anything in your situation. You’ve already been sealed for five thousand years, do you want to keep on being suppressed?” Qingfeng Li jokingly said to the Demonic Peacock Empress.
After thinking for a while, she said, “It would be impossible for me to be your bodyguard for three years. I could do it for one year at most.”
Qingfeng Li nodded and agreed with the Demonic Peacock Empress’s terms. He knew that it was unrealistic for her to be his bodyguard for three years, but one year was perfect for him.
But right now, Qingfeng Li could not save the Demonic Peacock Empress. Only when he reached the Spirit King Realm could he save her.
Qingfeng Li walked beside the Golden Light Sword and held it in his hand.
A sharp golden light emitted from the sword as a golden light circulated the surface. The aura of the sword broke the atmosphere.
The Golden Light Sword was a King-level spiritual device. Inside, there were nine seals. With the breaking of each seal, the sword would level up.
The higher the level, the stronger its power. The Spirit King Realm was different from the other realms. The other realms were separated into early stage, middle stage, late stage, and peak.
The Spirit King Realm was separated into nine smaller realms.
With a higher level, one’s strength would increase.
It would be harder to practice as one’s level increased as one would need large amounts of vital essence, vitality stones, pills, heavenly materials, and earthly treasures.
Qingfeng Li was halfway to the first level of the Spirit King Realm.
He knew that all he had to do now was to improve his strength.
Within the Golden Light Sword, there was the Golden Light Sword Technique. There were nine skills, and Qingfeng Li could only practice the first at the moment.
The first sword skill was called “Sky-Roaming Golden Light.” A strike of the sword would seem as if it appeared from the sky. Its speed was fast as lightning and would be impossible for one to react to.
Grabbing the sword, Qingfeng Li began to practice. With a slight wave of his sword, a huge tree was cut in half instantly.
The speed of the sword was faster than the human eye could catch.
Qingfeng Li’s learning ability was strong. Before long he learned the entirety of the first sword technique.
Taking the sword, Qingfeng Li walked towards the bottom of the mountain. Right as he arrived, he was met with Gekuang Zhao and the others.
The sect leaders of the four sects were still passed out from the woman in white’s slap. However, Gekuang Zhao, Ziyue Bing, Wuya Shou, Doudi Fu, and the others had already woken up.
They were only suppressed by the Heavenly Dao which caused them to pass out. Now that the Heavenly Dao was gone, they naturally woke up.
Seeing Qingfeng Li’s Golden Light Sword, Gekuang Zhao and the others became very excited.
They had always wanted the Golden Light Sword. Now that it had appeared in Qingfeng Li’s hand, they decided to take it from Qingfeng Li, although they did not know how he acquired it.
“Qingfeng Li, hand over the Golden Light Sword,” Gekuang Zhao sneered at Qingfeng Li.
He hastily said the words to Qingfeng Li as the first thing he saw was the prized sword.
Not only Gekuang Zhao but also Ziyue Bing, Wuya Shou, and Doudi Fu all looked at Qingfeng Li with a murderous light in their eyes. Their intentions were clear, and that was forcing Qingfeng Li to give up the Golden Light Sword.
Smiling, Qingfeng Li walked forwards with the Golden Light Sword as a murderous aura emitted from his body.
Qingfeng Li turned his wrists and suddenly slashed towards Gekuang Zhao.
The Golden Light Sword emitted a sharp aura as it cut through the sky like lightning and broke Gekuang Zhao’s longsword.
Gekuang Zhao did not even react before his sword was destroyed.
Qingfeng Li was too strong, no, the Golden Light Sword was too fast. It did not give Gekuang Zhao any time to react.
“What? You actually broke my longsword?” seeing his broken weapon, Gekuang Zhao was extremely shocked.
