2025-06-30 10:22:29Upon witnessing the tragic death of his son, Han Yu could only close his eyes.
"Xianger, let’s go back..."
Luo Xiang nodded, then turned to look at Han Yu, who still had his eyes shut.
"The old and new grudges shall begin... If one day I surpass you, I’ll return and take your life with my own hands..."
Han Yu nodded. “There’s no need to wait for the future... Today, you are the victor!”
Swuuush! Slaaash!
Drawing a sword from his spatial ring, Han Yu took his own life right before the eyes of Luo Xiang, Luo Jin, and Luo Lan. For him, there was no reason to live after witnessing the death of his beloved child.
Narrowing his eyes, Luo Jin looked at the remaining members of the Han Clan, now frozen in confusion and fear after seeing their patriarch commit suicide.
“I won’t hold anything against you... You may choose your own path—join the Luo Clan or rebuild the Han Clan,” he said, with a subtle hint of threat in his tone. Then, Luo Jin took Luo Xiang and Luo Lan back to the Luo Clan.
Upon arriving at the Luo Clan…
“Xianger... Well done!” one of the elders praised Luo Xiang's swordsmanship.
“Oh right… May I ask who your teacher is?” Luo Jin asked seriously.
This question had been carefully prepared by Luo Jin at Luo Lan’s request. After all, the Luo Clan did not possess the sword techniques Luo Xiang had displayed.
Luo Xiang nodded and quickly activated the remaining Divine Soul consciousness within him. At once, a terrifying sight made everyone in Luo Xiang’s residence tremble.
What they saw was a man standing tall, exuding an indescribable aura that overwhelmed those who gazed upon him.
“Wh-who is that?!”
“Son… Do you know his name?” Luo Jin asked respectfully.
Luo Xiang shook his head. “Master only told me that if my parents asked about him, I should simply summon the soul he left behind.”
Realizing that his grandson’s master was beyond his own comprehension, Luo Jin finally let out a relieved breath.
“Hehehe... In all the realms, perhaps no one is worthy to be my master!” Luo Xiang mused inwardly with a mysterious smile.
Everyone nodded in understanding. After learning who Luo Xiang’s master was, Luo Jin brought up the issue regarding Wei Ho.
Luo Xiang explained everything in detail, and they finally understood the root of the problem. Even though it began as a youthful conflict, Wei Ho was the third son of the Wei Clan—meaning a great clan war was inevitable.
Shortly after, Luo Jin shared secret knowledge of the main clan with Luo Xiang, clearly showing his hopes for Luo Xiang to one day become the clan leader. After all, both Qing Tian and Luo Lan had only one heir.
“The Sword Domain... This place is said to be a hidden realm within the Sky Continent... And there are many powerful forces residing in it... It seems the Luo Clan isn’t as simple as I thought,” Luo Xiang muttered.
“Though you’re the sole heir... In the law of nature, strength determines power... Besides, the clan is in a chaotic state, so for now, you won’t be able to train in the main family,” Luo Jin explained.
Luo Xiang nodded in understanding. Having received so much information, he felt the weight of the responsibility placed on his shoulders.
“Very well, Grandfather... One day I will surpass even my father’s achievements... And I will restore the Luo Clan to its former glory!”
After their serious talk, laughter filled the room when Luo Jin pulled out jars of wine from his spatial ring.
That night.
“Mother... How are you feeling?”
Luo Lan smiled sweetly upon hearing her son’s concern for her condition.
“I’ve started to recover...”
Luo Xiang nodded and, without a word, checked the poison within his mother’s body by reading her pulse.
Moments later…
“Heavenly Demon Poison?!” Luo Xiang’s eyes widened in shock.
Luo Lan's expression also turned to one of disbelief. Very few people knew what poison resided in her body.
“H-how did you know, my son?!”
Luo Xiang shook his head. “This is another blessing my master left me... But how did you come to be poisoned with something so deadly, Mother?!”
Luo Lan closed her eyes for a moment. After mustering her courage to reveal a secret kept for seventeen years, she looked warmly into her son’s eyes.
“This poison came when I was protecting you while you were still a child…”
Flashback – Seventeen Years Ago
The Sword Domain was in great turmoil due to a power struggle for the throne of the domain. Major clans and sects residing there had gathered, for in the law of nature, only the strong shall rule. They held a tournament among patriarchs and sect leaders in the domain.
A month before the tournament began, the Luo Clan was infiltrated by five Semi-Divine Realm experts. As a result, Luo Lan and Qing Tian—Luo Xiang’s father—had no choice but to battle these five invaders.
Surprisingly, the couple proved too strong, and the attackers couldn’t defeat them. Eventually, the enemies resorted to targeting young Luo Xiang to escape. This incident severely damaged Luo Xiang’s dantian and poisoned Luo Lan when one of the attackers struck her with a palm laced in deadly venom.
After telling the whole story, Luo Lan broke down in tears, blaming herself. Had she been more vigilant, her son would never have suffered. This guilt led Qing Tian to establish a branch family as a place of exile for Luo Xiang.
Luo Lan believed that had the past unfolded differently, Luo Xiang might have become a respected figure in the Sword Domain today.
Luo Xiang responded only with a warm smile, for without that tragic past, the path of vengeance he now walked would never have unfolded. In other words, if the soul's original owner had survived, Shen Luo Xiang would have truly perished when punished in the Divine Realm.
“Don’t worry, Mother... As for the poison in your body... Xianger will heal it.”
Luo Lan wiped the tears from her cheeks. Her regret transformed into pride at her son’s determination.
“My son... Even though I believe in you, this poison continues to drain my cultivation... If it’s not cured within three years, I’ll surely—”
“There’s no such thing as impossible, Mother. Xianger will heal you!” Luo Xiang cut her off.
Luo Lan could only nod. After they shared a moment of comfort, Luo Xiang revealed the real reason for his visit.
“Do you give me your blessing to leave again?”
Without hesitation, Luo Lan nodded in approval of her son’s decision.
“Of course, I will. But promise me... Be careful out there...”

The attacks came in relentless succession, yet Xian Si and Xian Su easily repelled the old man’s assaults with nothing more than a single hand.BOOOOM! BOOOOM!Continuous explosions echoed through the air. However, upon seeing the Poison God’s disciple lying powerless on the ground, one of the old men swiftly secured Luo Xiang and immediately exited the small world.After returning to the formation altar at the entrance and exit of the Heavenly Arts Pagoda, Luo Xiang spoke,“Elder, I was merely a tool used by the two of them. Please, do not involve me in this matter.”The elder nodded.“I know. They have already told us everything. Do you know who their allies were?”“Xian Si, Xian Su, Sky Qilin, and lastly—the Sword God.”“H-he was there as well?”“Elder, didn’t we say earlier that the Sword God had already injured us?!” Ling Chao reminded him.“Ah, right! How could I forget! Oh no, my brothers! All of you, stay here!”Swuuuuuuush!The elder vanished. Ling Chao then approached Luo Xi

Luo Xiang once again revealed his talent, causing all the manuals to react once more. This forced him to unleash the Heaven-Devouring Flame Essence again, shattering the sealing formations.*Outside the pagoda, fifteen great forces—composed of Main Gods and Heavenly Judges—halted their steps as they were about to leave the small world.Their movements stopped the moment they saw the Sword God standing at the teleportation gate, gripping a golden sword in his hand.“Where do you think you’re going?”They exchanged glances with one another.“O-Our Lord God, we have no grievances with you! Please allow us to leave this world!”“Sureee,” he replied lazily.Everyone let out a long sigh of relief. They immediately knelt down and expressed their gratitude. Unfortunately, the clone spoke again—and hurled the golden sword toward them!“Cut off your left arms as the price for leaving this world…”His voice turned icy cold.“W-what?!”Although they could regrow their arms, they hesitated. It fe

“Y-you’re right… I feel the same way! But it seems that his good intentions must hide some sinister plan against us!”“Hahahaha! Brother, just stay quiet! Once we break through, we’ll smash him to pieces!”On the other side, Luo Xiang remained silent, listening to a conversation that would never come true for him. How could a mere three-star True God Realm cultivator possibly injure him?“Enjoy yourselves inside those prison bars… Later, I will need you again!”Swoooooosh!His soul vanished, forcing Xian Su and Xian Si to refocus on themselves. Meanwhile, Luo Xiang had already regained full control of his body. He slowly raised his gaze toward the five-story pagoda standing before him.“It’s time to begin!”The three of them entered the pagoda together, while his body clone vanished without a trace. In the next instant, they appeared inside the pagoda, a space filled with thousands of technique manuals.All the manuals floated in the air, protected by layers of sealing formations. How

However, before the three of them left, he realized that the figure beside Luo Xiang was none other than the ruler of Yao Yan Forest.“Why did you bring him here?” he asked in confusion.“Tch! What does it have to do with you? I’m an ally of the Poison God faction, here to secure the young master’s safety. Or do you think his identity is nothing but empty boasting?”The five men exchanged glances. Realizing their mistake, they immediately lowered their heads.“With such a lofty identity, there is naturally no issue!”Swuuuuuush!The three descended from the sky. After that, they walked casually forward, even though every cultivator’s gaze was fixed firmly upon them.‘Your Majesty, bringing the ruler of Yao Yan Forest—was that truly a good choice?’Long Hua Chen felt uneasy and sent a telepathic message.‘Relax. I’ve prepared an extremely shocking plot twist. Once the plan unfolds, chaos is inevitable!’Following Luo Xiang’s lead, the three arrived at the center of an ancient altar. At

“D-Don’t just stand there talking!”BOOOOOOM!Blocking Long Hua Chen’s punch head-on, Xian Su was sent flying backward, smashing straight through a sect warship. He had never expected that the man standing beside Luo Xiang possessed strength on par with the Main Gods. At that moment, he was finally forced to restrain himself.“Why are you all just standing there?! Have you already resigned yourselves to death and accepted your fate?!”“Tccccchhh! How ridiculous! Watch how I summon the Poison God here!”Using telepathy, Xian Si instantly felt delighted. However, Luo Xiang sneered and pointed toward the golden barrier that sealed the area.“How foolish. Are you even aware that this barrier also contains spatial power? No matter how strong you are, sending out a distress signal within a spatial domain like this is completely useless. Don’t tell me you don’t even understand something so basic?”Xian Si’s and Xian Su’s faces instantly turned pale. They finally realized their mistake.At th

Feeling guilty, Yuan Yin could only lower her head.“Gege…”“Yiner, I’m not making an issue out of it. I was just surprised… so you don’t need to feel guilty!”Yuan Yin ran forward and hugged Luo Xiang tightly.“After all this vengeance is settled, I promise our child will live happily. In the future, I won’t care about our status anymore. Living happily is my goal after revenge…”“Alright, I understand, gege! You’re returning to the soul world again—does that mean there’s a problem?”“Not a problem. Tomorrow I’ll go to the Sky Knowledge Pagoda. There, I have a few plans to cause some trouble…”“Xianger, won’t this endanger your life?” Qing Tian said with slight disapproval. He knew very well how dangerous the God Realm was, especially considering that the Sword God was a wanted figure.“Father, don’t worry. I have two different identities…”“Gege, be careful!”Luo Xiang nodded, then left them and went to meet Long Hua Chen, who was currently cultivating at the Cultivation Pagoda.Aft
