chapter 5219 that won’t stop me from beating him
“long chen, may i take a closer look at that jade?” asked the palace master.
“of course.”
long chen immediately raised his hand to hand it over, but the palace master retreated and waved his hand, signaling not to pass it over.
the palace master said, “no need to give it to me; just hold onto it. i only want to take a look.”
the palace master’s killing blow had been stopped by a trace of this jade’s aura, which shocked him. he vaguely felt that this trace of aura should be the legendary sovereign qi. although it was faint, almost imperceptible, it was strong enough to halt his killing blow.
the palace master stared at it. this once-glossy, pure white jade now bore streaks of long chen’s blood. the sovereign jade seemed to be absorbing the blood, and none of its aura was leaking out anymore. it now appeared as nothing more than an ordinary piece of jade. no clues could be seen from it.
the palace master examined it briefly before having long chen put it away. with their enemies scattered, there was no need for him to take further action. he calmed his turbulent blood qi and, after bidding farewell to long chen and bai letian, returned to his residence.
long chen got into the barrier and went to bai shishi’s side. when long chen saw her lying in her mother’s arms with her eyes closed, his heart skipped a beat in fear.
bai shishi’s mother quickly said, “don’t worry, although shishi’s wounds are heavy, her core energy remains strong, and her foundation is intact. she should be fine after sleeping.”
relieved, long chen turned to see bai zhantang, bai xiaole, bai xiaole’s mother, and bai letian standing by bai shishi. he apologized, “i’m sorry for not being able to protect shishi properly!”
bai shishi’s mother smiled and said, “let’s stop blaming ourselves. the lines of fate have their own mind. the academy survived, and although there were losses, they’re minor compared to the devastation we inflicted on our enemies.”
they all looked outside the barrier at the battlefield. the outer region of the academy was in ruins, soaked in blood. it had been an immense battle. eleven human emperors had perished, along with tens of thousands of half-step human emperors. the losses among the heaven saints were too many to count. despite everything, the high firmament academy had emerged victorious, wiping out all of brahma pill valley’s forces, save for the brahma divine diagram.
“what a pity. boss, if you hadn’t called us back, i’d have made sure not a single person escaped,” said bai xiaole, clenching his teeth.
bai xiaole was covered in blood, but his killing intent was burning strong. his sister’s near-death experience had unleashed something within him. though he often argued with bai shishi and was beaten by her, it never affected their bond. seeing her almost die had turned him into a devil.
“good job. your display today was beyond my expectations. today, you’ve finally become a true warrior,” long chen praised, patting bai xiaole’s shoulder.
bai xiaole instantly blushed at long chen’s praise, and long chen added, “i’m sure shishi saw your courage today.”
“even if i saw it, that won’t stop me from beating him!”
bai shishi’s sudden voice startled them. they looked over and saw that she was still asleep. she was sleeptalking.
they were all baffled for a moment before bursting into laughter. bai shishi was actually capable of saying such a thing in her sleep—what an instinctual response!
bai xiaole was speechless, but her words warmed his heart. as long as his sister was safe, he didn’t mind being beaten.
“dean, since we’ve wiped out brahma pill valley’s forces, shouldn’t we go further and destroy brahma pill valley itself?” long chen asked.
