Time Travel: I'm a Flower Thief

The wind in the world has stopped.

The roar of the waves seemed to be choked by some invisible force.

In mid-air, Cui Juqing's sword energy was no longer concealed in the slightest, and it exploded completely with a "boom"!

Countless fine cyan sword energies burst forth from his pores, swirling around his body and making him appear like a jade sword immortal descended to earth.

The longsword in his hand had completely transformed into a pure, refined, and extremely cold and fierce blue rainbow.

"Xie Lingyun, if you can't handle this, run away, but you must hand over Xie Xiaoyi!"

Xie Xiaoyi had already realized that his sword intent was extraordinary, but his body was frozen in place, unable to move. Desperate, he cried out in a trembling voice, almost in despair:

"Auntie, don't block it! That sword strike is too powerful! Don't take his sword!"

Xie Lingyun turned her head to look at him, her eyes filled with tenderness, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, your aunt is here!"

Cui Juqing said no more and thrust his long sword straight out.

He was like a blue comet that could tear through the sky.

Wherever it passed, it left behind frozen frost marks in the space.

This sword strike carries the weight of a century of swordsmanship in Kunlun Mountain, and represents the determination to sever all ties of cause and effect.

He must demand an explanation for his disciple Yun Qianxun!

Xie Lingyun stood atop the towering waves, raising his longsword:

"My body is the mountain that blocks swords, who dares to disturb my peace of mind?"

Beneath her, the suppressed, raging waves of the entire East China Sea resonated with the energy within her body.

The condensed true energy no longer surged outwards, but instead became extremely restrained, returning entirely to the sword's edge.

The next moment, she moved.

His entire being was like a black lightning bolt rushing upwards, carrying an irreversible momentum that seemed to sink into the heavens and earth!

Blue and black!

On the East China Sea, amidst countless fixed gazes, without any embellishment, straight and direct, in the most primal and violent way—

Collision!

clang--!!!!!

The deafening roar solidified into a tangible sound wave, which rippled outwards, creating a terrifying crater hundreds of feet in diameter on the sea below!

Immediately afterwards—

hum! ! !

Centered on the point where the two swords clashed, a half-blue, half-black, ever-expanding and twisting sphere of destructive light was suddenly born!

The cyan sword energy and black sword qi were fiercely clashing and annihilating each other, only to be instantly filled and torn apart by the violent sword qi!

Rumble, rumble, rumble—!!!

Only now did the energy that had been accumulating to its peak finally erupt!

A beam of light, interwoven with dark blue and black, shot into the sky, completely piercing through the oppressive clouds and evaporating them to create a huge hole, revealing the clear sky behind it!

The sword energy of the two seemed to have forcefully cleaved open another world, and the hollow interior was like a space-time isolated from the world.

The violent shockwave spread out in a circular, crushing pattern, and the seawater below, which had been compressed and dented, rebounded violently, roaring in all directions!

The light was so bright that no one could look directly at it; the sword energy was so violent that no one could sense it.

It felt like a long time had passed, yet it also felt like only a moment.

The all-consuming dark blue flames finally began to dim and dissipate.

The wind has begun to flow again.

The waves seemed to weep for the survivors.

midair.

Only one figure remained, standing stiffly in place.

It was Cui Juqing.

He remained in the stance of drawing his sword, but the longsword in his hand, including the blade in front of the hilt, had disappeared.

His face showed no sign of victory; he stared intently ahead at the spot where Xie Lingyun had been standing.

There was no one there.

There was no bloodstain, no fragments, and no residual fluctuations of true energy.

There was nothing there.

It seemed that the figure who had gathered the power of the East Sea and stood up to him head-on without backing down was just a dream.

Xie Lingyun has disappeared.

Thoroughly and completely clean.

Cui Juqing stared blankly down at the hilt of his sword, which was missing its blade, then looked up at the empty space before him.

For the first time, a look of near bewilderment appeared in the eyes of this Kunlun Sword Immortal.

Did we win...?

On the beach.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Even Ning Hua couldn't understand what had happened. How could Xie Lingyun have disappeared into thin air?

Xie Xiaoyi, who was frozen in place by Xie Lingyun's true energy, stared at the empty sky and froze.

The person who had gently told him "Don't be afraid, your aunt is here" just a second ago was completely swallowed up by that earth-shattering force the next second.

Is there no aunt left?

"Auntie..." His lips trembled, and his voice was so hoarse that it was hard to hear.

The next moment, all the fear, despair, and helplessness exploded in my chest!

"Wow!"

Xie Xiaoyi could no longer hold back and broke down in tears, sobbing uncontrollably as she screamed in anguish, "Auntie—!"

A loud cry seemed to shatter a shackle within him.

The immobilizing true energy that Xie Lingyun had left on him suddenly dissipated!

at the same time--

Deep within his dantian, the Ancestral Dragon True Qi was completely ignited by this heart-wrenching emotion!

Dragon essence, phoenix blood, unicorn marrow, and tortoise spirit resonate together!

The power of the four supreme treasures surged wildly through his meridians, like ten thousand rivers flowing into the sea, like the collapse of heaven and earth!

"Bang!"

The true energy that had been binding him was completely shattered by the violent force, and his original Starry Sky Profound Realm cultivation was instantly destroyed!

Ning Hua and Cui Juqing, who was in mid-air, exclaimed in surprise at the same time—

"Moon Ruins Shattered by Dust?"

Xie Xiaoyi felt a surge of cold, vast, and cloud-piercing energy erupt from his body!

A new realm, leaping upwards in one bound.

But he didn't care at all about breaking through his cultivation level. He just knelt on the ground, looked up at the empty sky, and wept bitterly.

Seeing this, Ning Hua's heart softened, and she lightly touched the ground with her toes, instantly landing beside Xie Xiaoyi.

Seeing the child crying so heartbreakingly, a pang of pity crossed her eyes, and she spoke softly, trying to comfort him:

"Little Xie Mo, don't cry... Xie Lingyun might not be dead. That power just now seemed like a tear in space... she..."

Before he could finish speaking...

In mid-air, Cui Juqing withdrew the remaining sword energy and descended step by step from the clouds.

He did not make any further moves, nor did he mention Xie Xiaoyi's mistakes again.

His face was cold and somber, with a lingering sense of bewilderment and gravity, as he landed on the beach.

His gaze fell on Xie Xiaoyi, who was crying uncontrollably, and then looked at the void where Xie Lingyun had disappeared, remaining silent for a long time.

Ning Hua also shut his mouth, only gently patting Xie Xiaoyi's trembling shoulder.

"Xiao Xie Mo, go back and ask that old devil Tian Suanzi. Maybe he can figure something out."

Could it be true, as she said, that her aunt might not actually be dead?

Xie Xiaoyi slowly stopped crying, raised her hand, and gently pushed Ning Hua's hand away.

He stared intently at Cui Juqing, shouting angrily, "Cui Juqing! Today, it's either you or me who dies!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he formed his five fingers into hooks and twisted them in mid-air!

The wooden sword that had fallen to the ground flew through the air with a "whoosh" and landed steadily in his hand!

Xiao Lingyun, Ding Yi, Murong Wei, and the sixteen Kunlun disciples' expressions changed drastically, and they all flashed forward and shouted angrily:

"How dare you be so disrespectful to your master!"
