Douluo Continent: Half-level Innate Realm, but a Sword Cultivator with a Heart-Only Mind

Chapter 29 Mother's Nursery Rhymes, Father's Wooden Sword, and His Last Wish

A sudden surge of intense weakness welled up inside Qi Dao, who felt as if his muscles were being torn apart.

He could only stand up by planting his sword in the ground and pressing his hands on the hilt.

The burly man smirked as he witnessed this.

Sure enough, this state allowed a mere one-ring Soul Master to unleash power nearly comparable to a Soul Master. How could there be no limitations?

He appeared to be talking to Qi Dao, but in reality, he was deliberately stalling for time, hoping to wait for Qi Dao's condition to subside.

In this way, Qi Dao and the other two will all be nothing more than fish on their chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.

Having finally encountered such a monstrous talent, how could I possibly let him die so easily?

He must be made to struggle in agony until he finally begs to be killed!

Hahaha~

"Kid, looks like you're done for!!"

The burly man's expression changed instantly. He slung his machete over his shoulder and said calmly, "Third brother, why aren't you going to arrest this little genius's parents?"

"Let's have some fun with him before he dies!"

The tall third brother chuckled and looked at Qi's parents in the distance.

Qi's mother helped Qi's father up from the ground. He looked very weak, his face was pale, and he was barely breathing.

"Cough~" Qi's father coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Ah, Ah Rou, it seems our family of three is doomed today."

Qi's mother's eyes stung with tears.

"It's alright, we'll die together as a family, so we won't be alone on the road!"

"What a pity, I was hoping that brat Adao would take me to the realm of gods to enjoy bliss!"

"Looks like I can't go to the realm of gods after all."

Qi's mother burst into laughter through her tears, as if the fear of death had vanished completely at that moment.

"It's alright, enjoying happiness in a different place is the same."

Qi Dao could hear his parents talking. His pupils dilated, and he turned his head to look.

He seemed to see the composure in his parents' faces as they faced death.

The three family members' eyes met in mid-air, and Qi's mother had already smiled and raised the dagger to her own neck.

Qi Dao's mind went completely blank at that moment.

He couldn't hear the sounds around him, but he seemed to see images of the future in his mind.

Qi's mother would stab herself in the neck with a dagger, and blood would spurt out from her neck. Qi Dao would be able to see the look of longing and regret on her face before she died.

Next would be Qi's father, who would sever his own meridians next to Qi's mother's corpse.

My parents' words still echo in my ears.

Suddenly, scenes from Qi Dao's life from birth to the present day began to play out before his eyes like a slideshow.

It sounded as if a voice was ringing in his ears.

It feels so familiar!

Qi Dao remembered that it was a nursery rhyme that his mother had taught him when she first became a mother.

It hides her deepest maternal love for her child.

In the blink of an eye, Qi's father's figure flashed across the screen. He personally whittled a wooden sword for Qi Dao, which Qi Dao played with with great affection.

It was at that time that Qi Dao made a promise for the first time, both jokingly and seriously.

He wants to become the god of swords, and he will take his parents to the realm of gods to enjoy bliss.

His words from back then still echoed in his ears. His wish remained unfulfilled, how could he let his parents pass away with regrets!

Anyone who tries to stop him from fulfilling his wish will be killed!

Even if he were to face the gods, he would still draw his sword and charge forward!

Qi Dao suddenly came to his senses. All the thoughts he had just had were just a matter of a single thought!

At this moment, a subtle inspiration welled up in my mind.

Countless sword techniques surged into his mind.

His lips twitched, then twitched again, as if he were nervously twitching slightly.

It looked like he was laughing, but also like he was caught in some kind of madness.

It is this feeling.

A communion between heaven and man, a unity of man and sword!

He's got it! He's got it!

He pulled the peerless sword from the ground and casually slashed downwards, the blade pointing towards the ground.

An invisible sword beam shot out from the tip of the sword, and the moment it touched the ground, it cleaved the ground into a crack several feet long.

Qi Dao looked at his parents, a bright smile appearing on his slightly twitching lips.

"Dad, Mom!"

"Until the promise is fulfilled, all you need to do is live well, and the rest..."

"Leave it to me!"

Qi's parents stared blankly at Qi Dao before them, and the thought of going to their deaths inexplicably dissipated in their hearts.

On the other side, the gaunt man's face was contorted with rage, and his gaze toward Qi Dao seemed to wish he could devour his flesh and drink his blood.

The tall third brother looked disdainful.

Tch, you think you can survive by babbling on and on?

The burly man's gaze, however, drifted to the cracked ground beneath the peerless sword, and a strange unease arose within him.

That's not right, he was clearly unable to stand up just now.

But the next second, he met an indifferent gaze.

Qi Daofu, suddenly inspired, calmly began to speak.

"You just asked me what my remaining wishes were!"

"I'll tell you now..."

The burly man grew increasingly uneasy, thinking to himself: This kid is really strange. I'd better kill him right away to avoid any unforeseen complications.

As a Soul Master with the best Soul Ring combination, why would I be afraid of a Soul Master who is already exhausted and has only one Soul Ring?

It's ridiculous!

With this thought in mind, he felt much more at ease and shouted, "Playing tricks!"

"Go to hell!"

Before he finished speaking, his fourth spirit ring flashed.

At the same time, he raised the blood-red machete with both hands.

With a single slash, a blood-red aura surged forth, and a massive blade of light instantly cleaved towards Qi Dao.

The other two were startled.

What's going on, boss? Why did you suddenly make a move?

This isn't like him at all!

Just when the two thought Qi Dao would be cleaved in two by this blade of light, hum!

A sword cry resounded through the sky.

The blade's edge was shredded by the invisible sword intent.

Amidst the crimson aura, a figure slowly emerged, softly chanting.

"I have a wish!"

Qi Dao took a step forward, as if some kind of shackles had been removed from his body, and his aura immediately rose to a new level.

Behind him, sword intent raged.

"I once promised that when I become a god of swordsmanship, I will take my parents to ascend to heaven in broad daylight."

Qi Dao took three steps in a row, and with each step, his aura increased.

Through the interaction between heaven and man, Qi Dao entered the realm of oneness with heaven and man in one step!

A torrent of energy surged into his body from all directions.

The sword intent behind him seemed to transform from a stream into a river, and then from a river into a vast ocean.

Finally, the sword light soared into the sky, and the overwhelming sword intent tore through the clouds.

"I won't die, they..."

"I won't die!!"

Qi Dao looked at the three dumbfounded burly men and slowly raised the sword in his hand.

"I have drawn upon the power of heaven and earth to forge this sword!"

"Only one sword strike!"

"This sword is for you..."

'

"Funeral procession!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Qi Dao swung his sword.

Qi's parents only saw a flash of silvery-white light suddenly appear and disappear in an instant!

The sword light disappeared, and the three burly men remained standing in the same spot, motionless, their faces still showing astonishment.

"this...

'

"What's going on?"

Qi's mother slowly lowered the dagger in her hand, and Qi's father also looked ahead.

But soon, they witnessed a horrifying scene.

Suddenly, the three bodies split in two, and blood gushed out.

died!

All dead!
