Chapter 151: Peaceful Death

Winds howled as a towering tornado formed above the hideout, reaching high up to the skies as if connecting the Earth with the heavens.

And it just continued to grow as even the vegetation outside the formation was affected.

Qian Ru grinned, pouring her Qi in the tornado and added her technique in it. The tornado wasn't just a simple mass of fast moving winds but a deadly butcher destroying everything in its wake.

Ying Yue narrowed her eyes and stopped walking, looking at the giant tornado forming before her. With one glance, she was able to tell its true nature.

'First the winds will suck everything in the tornado and then the numerous wind blades inside the tornado will turn that into pieces. What a ruthless technique.'

Lan Ming was truly impressed but that didn't mean she accepted defeat. She just flashed a smile and flew towards the tornado, which was in a way working as a shield for Qian Ru.

If she wanted to reach her, then she needed to deal with the tornado first. And sadly, she had no idea on how to do that.

She could see the winds cutting everything around her, even ground had so many long pits that it looked like a catastrophe had passed over here.

The Wind Blade Tornado was truly a worthy technique for a Nascent Soul Realm.

Lan Ming didn't stop for a second and directly jumped into the tornado with her Sword Zone still covering her from every side, effectively working as a shield.

However, the moment she entered the eye of the Tornado, she felt her Qi reserves draining even more quickly than before.

'Hmm, what should I do?'

However, even under such a circumstances, she was calm and cold-headed as she analysed every detail around, trying to find a solution.

The tornado was just growing more and more, affected by the environment itself and in no time, it covered the whole area of the formation, destroying everything.

So, she needed to jump in it anyways. She just did it early before it grew even stronger and destroyed her.

The numerous wind blades collided with the numerous sword slashes in the Sword Zone, cancelling each other out which made both women's Qi reserves low.

'How about I try it?'

Suddenly, an idea came to Lan Ming's mind which made her eyes shine in excitement. It was a risky idea but she wanted to try it because that was the only way to win, unless she was willing to do an endurance battle with Qian Ru, in which she had an disadvantage.

She took a deep breath and stood still in the eye of the tornado which had calmer winds but high density of the wind blades.

With her eyes closed, she raised her blood red above her with both hands holding its hilt. She poured her remaining Qi in the sword as she formed another Sword Zone around her sword.

Not only that, she even poured her sword intent in it, making much more powerful and sharp. White glow shot out from the sword as it competed with the tornado on which could reach higher.

'No! I don't have enough Qi for this. I can't form the Sword Zone.'

Qian Ru smiled genuinely as her body began to vanish.

"I will and don't worry, you will never see her there."

"I'm glad!"

With those words, Qian Ru's soul disappeared from the world to enter the cycle of reincarnation, leaving Shen Yu alone in the white atmosphere.

Shen Yu looked at nothing and asked.

"I'm doing good, right?"

He could have forced Qian Ru and there was no way for her to reset. But he didn't do that as he didn't want to impose his will too much on others. If he did, then what was the difference between him and the current rulers?

If a person wanted to die, then they had every right to do so.

[I think so? Honestly, master, I would say you can improve in some aspects but from the way things are going, you won't turn into another tyrant for sure. I just suggest you to take advise from your wives too. They're intelligent and have seen world more than you, well, atleast this world.

Anyways, a collective descision can be wrong and may even take time, but it's better than a decision taken by an individual alone for an entirety of population.]

Hearing that, Shen Yu felt a little better as he stood up and said.

"Thanks, System. And I will remember your advice."

With that, he disappeared from the white space and in the next moment, he was standing before Lan Ming. He caught her body and smiled.

He rubbed her head and sent his Qi inside her body, healing all the injuries. She had actually sustained a lot of internal and external wounds because of being stuck inside a terrifying Wind Blade Tornado and also forming the World Cutting Slash or at least that was what Shen Yu named it.

It put strain on her mind, which caused her to lose consciousness.

"You can rest now. Others also getting free so we can then go to next base."

Shen Yu smiled and sent her to a special pocket dimension he had made for such occasions. He gently laid Lan Ming on the bed and set some formation which would help her in recovery.

After kissing her on forehead, which caused her to unconsciously smile, he left the pocket dimension. However, he didn't go to the site of destruction but inside the hideout.

He easily traversed in the tunnels and finally reached the junction where the path went into two tunnels. He raised an eyebrow, detecting Ning Xi's aura from one of the tunnels and closed his eyes.

"Hmm, she doesn't need any help. Now, what about Yue'er?"

He also sensed Song Junwan but she was just finishing her battle or rather her play. That only left Ying Yue.

He easily blasted the wall, forming a hole and entered it. And the sight that greeted him set his heart on fire. His steps halted as he just looked at the sight with wide eyes.
