Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss Chapter 629 - That Kind of Resolution

Chapter 629: That Kind of Resolution

Waves of wind blew as the demon emperor and his guards slowly started to stir. As the demon emperor’s cultivation was the strongest, he was the first to awaken with a lost look in his eyes.
Soon, his guards also started to awaken one after the other, each of them looking at the sword after they did with eyes filled with anticipation and terror at the same time. Each of them had lingering fears due to what had just happened.
“Retreat to a distance. If anything untoward happens to me, Zhen Ye shall succeed my place as demon emperor and maintain order over the various monster beasts and continue our bloodline,” said the demon emperor to Zhen Ye and the rest after a moment of silence.
After he finished speaking, the demon emperor walked towards the sword determinedly. His footsteps were heavy, but incredibly purposeful.
“Lord Sacred Emperor, you can’t!”
“Master, don’t do this!” Zhen Ye and the rest exclaimed at the same time.
“This monster beast clan has been waiting ten thousand years just for this moment. If we miss this opportunity, I am afraid that we will no longer have even half a chance,” said the demon emperor.
“But—” Zhen Ye was still about to say something but he was interrupted by the demon emperor.
“Remember, even if I am not around, be sure to cultivate properly. The hope of the entire monster beast clan rests on you,” said the demon emperor with finality. Then, he quickly went forward without looking back.
Zhen Ye and the guards sunk to their knees at the same time, their faces unknowingly streaked with tears. Xiao Rou’s face was even more streaked with tears. They had all already received a demonstration of how powerful that sword was and could tell by the demon emperor’s determined actions that he would definitely die.
Upon hearing the demon emperor giving what he thought would be his final speech, Ling Chuxi was a little tempted to laugh. This demon emperor was truly scared silly by the Cang Yuan Sword. If he knew that the Cang Yuan Sword Essence that had scared him half to death was already in the Luo Chen Sword, she wondered what he would feel and think.
However, seeing the scene before her, Ling Chuxi could not bring herself to laugh and instead suddenly thought of Mo Kongyuan. Regardless of the fact that the demon king was a monster beast and what his monster beast clan had done ten thousand years ago, his deep affection towards his clan, and his resolution to unhesitatingly sacrifice anything for the good of the clan was nonetheless admirable and touching.
Carrying the determination of one who marches to battle after cutting off any plan of retreat to leave no option but to win, the demon emperor walked towards the sword.
Right at this moment, a dazzling brilliance flashed from the sword, like the brightest star on the darkest night.
The sword emitted a chirring sound before millions of star bursts erupted from it. The light was so dazzling that everyone was almost unable to open their eyes.
“Ding!” The sword actually cracked open with a crisp ring and crumbled into countless little shards, falling to the ground like dust. The wind blew upon the shards and they floated away in a wave of silvery dust.
The demon emperor was stunned. Even Zhen Ye who was shedding tears just a moment ago forgot his tears and widened his eyes, also shocked silly.
The Cang Yuan Sword shattered. The Cang Yuan Sword which they had been awaiting for ten thousand years had shattered just like that, turning into a pile of powder which had disappeared with the wind. Their chance which had finally arrived after ten thousand years had also thus disappeared.
Seeing the scene before their eyes, the demon emperor and the rest were lost, sorrowful, depressed and in despair.
Only Ling Chuxi and Huangfu Qingjue remained calm. It was unknown how old that sword truly was. Even if it was made of exquisite steel that had been refined a hundred times over, logically, it should have already turned into scrap iron by now. It was only because the sword still contained the Cang Yuan Sword Essence that it was still intact to this day. This meant that the moment the sword essence disappeared from it, the sword also finally turned into dust.
“Could it be that the heavens want to doom my monster beast clan?” cried the demon emperor as he stood rooted to the spot for half a moment before falling to the ground with tears streaking down his old face.
“Lord Demon Emperor!” “Master!” said Zhen Ye and the guards as they rushed to the demon emperor’s side. Now that the Cang Yuan Sword was gone, the demon emperor would not need to take any dangerous risks and their hearts which were suspended finally fell back down to solid ground.
