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...”

“Th-that jade in young master’s hand… isn’t it the Arhat Jade bestowed by the Sword God before the Goddess’s death?”“And that staff… I hope young master will grant it to us, for that staff symbolizes the authority of the demon world!”Luo Xiang nodded, a faint smile curling at the corner of his lips.“This staff I shall give you, but in return for reviving Goddess Su Hua. As for myself, I only ask to keep this Arhat Jade. You won’t object, will you?”The three demon elders exchanged glances, conversing telepathically. After a brief moment, they nodded in unison.“The Arhat Jade may be of use to us, but since young master desires it, we shall not contest.”Luo Xiang nodded again and handed the staff to Yin Qiyi. Observing the exchange, the Dragon God Ancestor furrowed his brows.“Why did you only ask for the Arhat Jade?” he asked via telepathy, puzzled.Luo Xiang gave a sly smile.“Good thing you asked through telepathy! Otherwise, they might have demanded back something far greater t

Yin Han began unleashing punches into the air. As though time itself had frozen, within mere moments a vortex of Qi energy emerged from the void, followed by gales of wind sweeping against the colossal hand in the sky.The fluctuation of Qi energy, along with the violent gusts, spread with immense force. Even Luo Xiang was forced to retreat, flying back toward Su Hua’s remnant soul.“He’s far too strong… If only the Goddess had left me more energy, I could have killed him in a single strike!” Su Hua exclaimed, making Luo Xiang understand.“I never expected Yin Han and Yin Wei to have reached the Divine Stage either,” added Yin Qiyi, as Yin Daihe and Yin Lang appeared at Luo Xiang’s side.Luo Xiang gave a faint smile. “Indeed, the Divine Stage can destroy an entire Empire with a single move. But that does not mean… they are without weakness.”“D-does young master have a solution? Right now, only Qiyi has stepped into the Divine Stage!”Nodding, Luo Xiang fixed his gaze on Yin Han and Y
148.
“You are but a mere remnant soul, and you dare speak to me of life and death?!”“Y-you arrogant fool!”Swuuuuuung!A powerful aura erupted from Su Hua’s lingering soul. Though in the past Su Hua had known Luo Xiang well, this fragment of her soul—shaped into her familiar visage—carried no memory of her former life. Provoked by Luo Xiang’s words, the soul grew agitated and presented him with three questions, lines of tension appearing on Luo Xiang’s brow.“You do not possess blue blood. So how did you manage to survive in the Demon Realm?”“Ckckck! Is this your difficult question?” Luo Xiang mocked deliberately, testing the temperament of Su Hua’s soul fragment in return.“You are truly arrogant. But if you can answer all of my questions, then the star energy I left behind shall be yours!”Luo Xiang smirked faintly. “My purpose here is only to correct the demons’ delusion…”“Tch! Who are you to decide the actions of others? Are you a god, one who dares to pass judgment by your own will

Yin Daihe and the three other elders fell silent. Unknowingly, they swallowed hard at the same time.“Who is Luo Xiang’s true identity? To possess such a terrifying flame, he must have come from the Divine Realm. Or perhaps he is another god who deliberately split his soul to quell the chaos between realms?” Yin Daihe asked through telepathy, lowering his suspicion while questioning Luo Xiang’s origin.“I don’t know. For now, let us just follow his instructions. At present, only Yin Qiyi has reached the God stage. Aside from Qiyi, there is no one else. Even if we joined forces to kill him, that young man possesses a flame far too powerful. And remember—our greatest weakness is if our bodies come into contact with Heavenly Fire!” Yin Lang replied, shuddering in fear at the thought of Luo Xiang’s flame.Unlike the others, Yin Qiyi showed no fear. Now that he understood Luo Xiang’s identity, he asked about his plan, so that the four elders would know as well.“Young master, then do you h

Yin Qiyi gave a faint smile, though even she did not know where her sudden courage came from. One thing was certain—so long as she walked beside the Sword God, even if they dared to strike now, she would not remain silent.“Yin Daihe, am I not allowed to bring my companion here?” Yin Qiyi entered the grand hall without fear, Luo Xiang and Yin Ling following behind her.“He’s nothing but a crippled youth! What are you so proud of, you damned old hag?!” cursed Yin Lang, seated upon one of the seats of honor, his voice clearly displeased.Luo Xiang said nothing. Without waiting for approval from the four patriarchs, he calmly sat upon the empty chair that belonged to Yin Qiyi.“Senior, may I sit here?” Luo Xiang asked casually.“Hahaha! Even if you were to sit on the main throne, they still wouldn’t be able to forbid you!” Yin Qiyi replied with laughter, choosing to take another seat instead.The four patriarchs of the Spirit Clan narrowed their eyes. From the start, they could sense no

Raising an eyebrow, Luo Xiang gave a faint smile at the appearance of the Grand Elder.“You still dare to smile, knowing you are about to become a sacrifice?” Yin Qiyi narrowed her eyes in disbelief.“Old Fox… do you still recognize that name?” Luo Xiang asked, lifting one brow.“Who are you…” Yin Qiyi’s voice turned cold.Normally, Yin Qiyi would kill anyone who dared call her Old Fox. That title could only be spoken by a handful of the mightiest figures across the realms.Yin He, Yin Ling, and Yin Saosi quickly explained through telepathy, not wanting the Grand Elder to clash with the Sword God. Yin Qiyi’s eyes widened in shock—after all, the death of the Sword God had spread across the realms.“Do not toy with my grandchildren by pretending to be the Sword God… The Sword God was once an exalted deity in our eyes. Do you even realize the consequences if you dare to exploit his name?!” Yin Qiyi’s aura pressed heavily upon them.Swuuuuung!The Divine Soul of Luo Xiang emerged behind h
