Chapter 39 – I can’t be bothered to talk to an Illiterate who hasn’t received Nine-Year Compulsory Education; you don’t deserve to listen!

Chapter 39 – I can’t be bothered to talk to an Illiterate who hasn’t received Nine-Year Compulsory Education; you don’t deserve to listen!

The sword light illuminated the night sky of the capital, making the stars and moon pale in comparison.

In an instant, the bustling Imperial Capital was as bright as day, with millions of people looking up in awe towards the direction of the palace.

Gradually, some people noticed something unusual and exclaimed, "The heavens and earth are splitting apart!"

The entire night sky, along with the moon and stars, seemed to be fleeing, shrinking until they became distant.

The sky disappeared!

A chasm separated heaven and earth, as if severing eternity, leaving everyone in shock.

Inside the small world of the commanding platform.

The sword light broke through the barriers of the small world, carving out a wide and long gash, pouring out the sword light that illuminated the night sky.

"The spatial aspect of the Sword Sense of Time and Space has such profound mastery. Qian Yuan Sword Saint's cultivation is far beyond our imagination," Jiang Canghai said with his hands behind his back.

Someone was utterly shocked and asked, "Can Qian Yuan Sword Saint really split heaven and earth with a single sword? Is this something a Sea Covering Realm cultivator can do?"

Jiang Canghai, whose cultivation was only at the early Mountain Moving Realm, but with an extraordinary vision, calmly replied, "No, Qian Yuan Sword Saint's sword did not physically split heaven and earth but severed the spatial laws of this region."

A visitor from a forbidden land stared intently at Qian Yuan Sword Saint, murmuring to himself, "Where did this person come from? A twenty-year-old Sword Saint, given time, might not be unable to reach the Morning Glow Realm and see the scenery there."

Even the Empress Dongfang Liuli in the Golden Throne Hall stood up, her gaze piercing through the dome, watching the scene of heaven and earth splitting apart.

"I thought Qian Yuan Sword Saint's Sword Sense was primarily based on the laws of time. Now it seems his sword has reached the pinnacle of both space and time."

Dongfang Liuli couldn't help but look at the handsome young man leaning on a blind cane in the hall—Meng Qingzhou.

"Such a monstrous talent, comparable to me. How did you teach and nurture him? Could it be..."

Dongfang Liuli's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, her heart unsettled, "Are you really a Sage?"

In the past, no matter how astonishing Meng Qingzhou's words or deeds were, Dongfang Liuli never fully believed in his Sage identity.

According to the royal secret scrolls, there was only one Sage, an incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, who walked the earth, spreading teachings and enlightening the masses...

The Sage was not without cultivation but did not need it because he was a Sage. Every action contained the laws of the Heavenly Dao. Who could withstand a strike from the Heavenly Dao?

After the Sage's death, representing the silence of the Heavenly Dao, there could never be another Sage.

...

...

Huang Hao's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched the Four Divine Beasts he had summoned shatter into pieces.

"The Four Divine Beasts once dominated an era. Summoning even a wisp of their essence should be enough to pave an invincible path for you. But you got one thing wrong; you're just an ant. How can an ant summon gods?"

Qian Yuan's sword was sharp, and so was his tongue. After destroying the Four Divine Beasts with one strike, he continued to verbally attack, shaking Huang Hao's Dao heart.

"I am a Golden Ant, who once fought dragons and kylins in ancient times, not weaker than the Four Divine Beasts. Being summoned by me is their honor," Huang Hao was both shocked and angry, but his Dao heart remained firm.

With that said.

Rip!

Huang Hao decisively tore off his human form, his body swelling, his face becoming hideously terrifying, standing dozens of meters tall, entirely golden, looking exceptionally mighty.

Every move caused spatial tremors, his battle power skyrocketing, causing countless spectators to exclaim.

Sorry, too late!

A tear fell from Huang Hao's eye. At this moment, he finally realized.

The black-clad, masked youth before him was not someone he could contend with. This was a complete monster!

"You can still think, that's not right," Qian Yuan Sword Saint murmured softly, then pointed his finger.

The Spatial Sword Sense silently penetrated Huang Hao's head, severing a part of his brain.

Huang Hao's body stiffened, his eyes glazed over, laughing foolishly, his mouth crooked, looking insane.

Clearly, Huang Hao, once hailed as a young supreme, had become an idiot!

"Please... give me... a quick death," Huang Hao, retaining a last shred of clarity, pleaded in regret and pain.

As a young supreme, he had his pride.

Better to die than to be humiliated!

"Ah, who can resist my handsome and kind heart? I'll grant your wish," Qian Yuan Sword Saint sighed.

With a single thrust, the blade pierced through the skull, yellow and white matter dripping down.

The rare Golden Heavenly Horned Ant, known as the invincible supreme in the same realm, fell just like that, even leaving a relieved smile before death.

At the same time.

In the Golden Throne Hall, on the imperial seat.

The Empress Dongfang Liuli leaned forward, staring intently at Qian Yuan Sword Saint, saying to Su Qingqiu, "Don't you think this Qian Yuan Sword Saint seems very familiar?"

"His playful tone, inexplicable words, and an indescribable serene temperament..."

Su Qingqiu blinked her adorable eyes, sneaking a glance at the Empress.

Your Majesty! Didn't you say you would never marry, never wed?

You vowed to spend your life striving to unify the world, wielding your sword alone, without needing a man's company?

Yet now, you know so much about a man...

You're done for!

You're falling in love!

"Answer me," Dongfang Liuli's crimson eyes turned to Su Qingqiu, seeing her not responding for a long time, and even sneaking glances at her, she asked curiously.

Su Qingqiu quickly straightened her expression, saying, "Ahem, I also think this Qian Yuan Sword Saint is very similar to the Empress' Husband. Perhaps it's because the Empress' Husband taught him from a young age, so they share some habits."

Dongfang Liuli fell into deep thought, murmuring, "Is that so..."

"Why do I feel like they are the same person?"

Su Qingqiu asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, why do you think so? The Empress' Husband has no cultivation, which you have confirmed repeatedly. Otherwise, you wouldn't have made him the Empress' Husband."

Dongfang Liuli was speechless, unable to answer.

Don't ask, it's a woman's intuition!
