Eternal Sacred King

The Shen family’s courtyard was in a mess.

Standing where she was, Shen Mengqi’s expression turned increasingly terrible. There was a dark aura of death shrouding her as her consciousness faded in and out – she could collapse at any moment.

Shen Nan was supporting her carefully by the side, watching everything unfold helplessly.

Initially, he hoped that he and his family clan would be able to flourish instantly by relying on the fact that his younger sister had joined an immortal sect.

However, all of his hopes were dashed right now.

Yet, there was no disappointment in Shen Nan’s heart.

At this very moment, the only thing he wished was for his sister to survive. Even if they had to return to their ordinary lives in the past, it would be better than him being left all alone.

Shen Nan asked softly, “Do you want to lie down and rest?”

Su Zimo listened silently the entire time.

As daybreak approached, the stars in the skies disappeared bit by bit.

“Those stars… are so beautiful. Unfortunately, I won’t… be able to see them again.”

Slowly, Shen Mengqi closed her eyes.

They never opened again.

The power of the Spirit Lock Flower was gone by now.

Channeling spirit energy, he swept his sleeves.

A human-shaped grave appeared on the ground and although mud and dust flew everywhere, none of it touched Shen Mengqi.

Su Zimo placed Shen Mengqi into the grave. Just as he was about to fill the grave back with mud, he paused.

His face was slightly lowered and his gaze was calm. He did not move at all, remaining silent.

He stood there quietly.

A long time later, a ray of sunlight purged away the remnant darkness of the night.

Within the grave, Shen Mengqi was like a young girl in a peaceful deep sleep. She seemed like she was one with the valley.

Under the ray of sunlight, two streams of tears flowed down from the corners of the girl’s eyes.

The tears were clear and transparent, reflecting a figure in green robes.

The tears fell along with the figure they reflected, buried together with this young girl in this valley for all eternity.

Finally, Su Zimo took a deep breath and waved his sleeves, burying the grave.

He turned around.

Not far away, Shen Nan stood with tears streaming down his face bearing a look of misery.

From this day forth, he no longer had any kin in this world.

Initially, Shen Nan’s heart was filled with fear towards Su Zimo.

At that moment, he had lost all sense of reasoning as he yelled at Su Zimo, “What did she do wrongly? What reason was there for her to reject the opportunity of an immortal ascension presented to her? Who could reject it?”

“Why did things end up as such? Why…”

Shen Nan bawled and screamed from the depths of his heart in a frenzied manner.

At that moment, he even wished that Su Zimo could kill him so that he wouldn’t have to endure such misery anymore.

Walking towards the outside of the valley, Su Zimo paused for a brief moment when he passed by Shen Nan and said softly, “She wasn’t wrong. It was fate that was wrong.”

Shen Nan froze for a moment before stumbling to sit down weakly.

Su Zimo left and disappeared before long.

Upon returning to Ping Yang Town, Su Zimo walked along the long street and looked at his familiar surroundings. Suddenly, a surge of emotions gushed through his heart.

Everything began here.

Because of an immortal fate, Su Zimo, Shen Mengqi and Perfected Being Cang Lang’s fates were changed.

Eight years later, everything ended here.

It was as though everything was predestined.

It was until now that Su Zimo was certain that he had truly let go of Shen Mengqi and the past.

He had no resentment, hatred, sadness or joy.

The past between the both of them was buried within that valley.

All the grievances of the past had been stuck in Su Zimo’s mind like a rock and settled down for eight years. Now, everything was finally gone completely, crushed into dust.

In a single night, he severed his fate from the past and ended his karma, attaining clarity in his mind!

The spirit sea within his dantian surged and formed massive waves.

Su Zimo could sense that the opportunity for him to enter the Golden Core realm had arrived.
