Chapter 199: The Protagonist’s Ambition

“…”

Yu Ling’er and Ye Xuan had just gotten married and were in the midst of their honeymoon phase, yet such an incident occurred, leaving her very displeased.

She wasn’t upset with Ye Xuan but rather with these senior cultivators. Although she understood that their actions were not wrong, she was still annoyed.

Regardless of whether it was a misunderstanding, if Ye Xuan had truly caused chaos in the world, then their actions would have been justified.

If the world fell into ruin, who could remain unharmed?

Understanding this in her heart was one thing, but feeling displeased was another. Regardless of the truth, she had firmly chosen to stand by Ye Xuan’s side.

She no longer had the right to doubt him. If she was wrong, she would stay wrong to the end. Now, she could only hope that Ye Xuan was innocent, just like before…

“What’s happening with Mo Qingshang? Why hasn’t he appeared yet?” The Dragon Saintess of Donghai frowned slightly. “Could something have gone wrong?”

“This is bad–!!!”  Future Qin Zhenren’s expression suddenly changed. She moved quickly, summoning her long zither and plucking a string, sending a beam of spiritual light shooting into the distance.

The zither sound transformed into a spiritual ice dragon, breaking through thousands of miles in an instant.

At this moment, the illusion of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady behind Qingxue had already swung her sword towards Mo Qingshang.

The Divine Emperor Sword Master’s strength primarily came from the Divine Emperor Sword, which had already been taken by Ye Xuan.

Now, the Divine Emperor Sword Master’s power was far inferior to Qingxue’s. If there were no surprises, Qingxue’s sword would certainly take Mo Qingshang’s life.

Qingxue was already somewhat crazed. She fervently believed in Ye Xuan, unwilling to doubt him for a moment. So she was willing to gamble the future of the entire world, betting that Ye Xuan had hidden reasons for his actions.

Future matters should be decided in the future; no one has the right to judge Ye Xuan now. For this reason, Qingxue could unhesitatingly attempt to kill the Divine Emperor Sword Master, who was considered the hope of the future.

She was indeed crazy, driven mad by love. She didn’t know if she would regret it later, but for now, her resolve was unwavering.

Roar–!!!

As the Nine Heavens sword slashed down, a distant ice dragon broke through the air, circling around Mo Qingshang and forcefully blocking the sword.

“Ice River Dragon Chant–!”

Qingxue snorted softly. She knew it was Qin Zhenren’s doing. Since that old woman had discovered it, she wouldn’t be able to kill the Divine Emperor Sword Master now.

“Are you… insane–!!!” Seeing Qingxue truly trying to kill him, Mo Qingshang was terrified.

If it weren’t for the Evil Sky Sect members insisting on pretending to be with him and shielding him, he might already be dead like them, souls scattered.

The power of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Sword Technique was indeed terrifying.

In the novel he read, Qingxue always helped the protagonist. But why, now that he had transmigrated, did she want to kill him?

Was it because he was a transmigrator and treated differently? It couldn’t be–!!!

“If I die, the world is doomed–!!!” Mo Qingshang shouted at Qingxue.

He believed that only he could thwart Ye Xuan’s schemes. Saving the world depended on him. He would be the one to achieve ultimate glory, fame, and win the beauties.

Yet, he almost died at Qingxue’s hands just after transmigrating. This was a heavy blow to him.

“Hurry and get lost?” Qingxue coldly glared at the Divine Emperor Sword Master, her eyes full of killing intent.

Her nature was kind, so she should treat those who could save the world gently. But she had doubted Ye Xuan many times. Each time, Ye Xuan proved his innocence.

Now, she would not doubt him again. Anyone who intended to be Ye Xuan’s enemy was her enemy. Therefore, her attitude towards the Divine Emperor Sword Master was extremely hostile.

“…”

Mo Qingshang’s heart was filled with hatred.

This woman was detestable. Once he conquered the world, he would make her pay–!!!

Thinking this, Mo Qingshang soared towards the Taihua Immortal Sect. Since Qin Zhenren had seen his situation, she would ensure he encountered no danger.

Mo Qingshang moved unimpeded, finally reaching the celestial steps and ascending above the Taihua Immortal Sect. Simultaneously, his figure appeared in the sky’s scene.

“Could this be the Divine Emperor Sword Master?”

“No wonder he is the Divine Emperor Sword Master; he truly has an extraordinary aura–!”

Cultivators across the world admired Mo Qingshang.

“The Divine Emperor Sword Master indeed looks like an emperor.”

“Could he be the next ruler of the world?”

“Don’t forget, the previous Divine Emperor Sword Master was his past life.”

In the Chang’an Palace, a young girl in a golden dress stood with a woman in a red imperial robe, watching the scene in the sky.

“Mother… is that father?” the girl asked.

“No.” The woman in the red robe shook her head slightly, saying nothing more.

“…”

The girl in the golden dress pondered. Did her mother mean that father had been reincarnated and was no longer her father?

Most cultivators could achieve longevity, but being tied to the imperial palace and binding one’s fortune with the world meant that any rise or fall affected them.

Her father, though not yet fifty, had passed away. Her mother, Ming Yuekong, was the reigning Holy Empress.

The girl had little memory of her father. She only remembered his kind eyes when he looked at her as a child. He was different from the current Divine Emperor Sword Master.

“Fellow cultivators, I trust you have discerning eyes. This mirror is the Three Lives Mirror.”

Upon reaching the celestial platform above the Taihua Immortal Sect, Mo Qingshang greeted the immortals, glancing at the celestial maidens present, silently admiring them.

Indeed, as the novel described, they were all incredibly beautiful.

The Dragon Saintess of Donghai, Qin Zhenren, Fairy Hu Lan.

That must be Ye Xuan over there. Hmph, unlike the original protagonist, he wouldn’t give Ye Xuan any chance to manipulate him.

His gaze shifted to Ye Xuan and seeing Yu Ling’er beside Ye Xuan, a flash of hatred crossed his eyes. Such a beautiful woman had married Ye Xuan before he even transmigrated.

She would regret it later.
