Eternal Heart

Chapter 1358: New Laws

In the room, Ye Luofeng leaned against Chen Yu, her arms wrapped around his sturdy waist.

Perhaps it was because they were used to the separation, or perhaps because they had reached their current levels, where occasional seclusions lasted ten years or even decades, that they could now accept brief separations.

This reunion had no sadness from a long parting, only joy and emotion.

Chen Yu stroked the woman’s silky hair in his arms, and then touched her jade-like soft cheek, admiring her every smile and frown, and his heart suddenly felt more secure and calm.

After being intimate for a while, Chen Yu briefly talked about his experiences of the recent journey and his plans for the future.

Now, due to the exposure of the Divine Demon Parts, powerful enemies would continuously be drawn, and he lacked the corresponding strength to guard this treasure.

Therefore, Chen Yu would only stay within the Human Race for a very short time.

He would then venture out with Meng Qingyun to hone themselves and search for other Divine Demon Parts to quickly strengthen himself.

"... You’ve actually reached the Heavenly Union Realm."

Her cultivation speed was considered extremely fast even in the Heavenly Martial Sect, aiming to keep up with Chen Yu’s pace so they could share both joys and hardships.

But with Chen Yu’s current return, he had already reached the Heavenly Union Realm in cultivation.

Chen Yu reaching this step had a vital role played by the Eternal Heart, but similarly, the Eternal Heart also brought corresponding troubles to him, and if he couldn’t bear it, the result could be death.

In the domain of the divine, Ye Luofeng knew she couldn’t help, so she could only listen earnestly and agree with Chen Yu’s idea.

"I plan to stay in the Human Race for just three months, and to avoid exposing my identity, I won’t be going out during these three months..."

Chen Yu gazed into Ye Luofeng’s eyes, smiled, and kissed her directly.

...

Sitting cross-legged in cultivation, Guan Hongri opened his eyes, revealing deep gloom and anger.

This was already the fifth day, and despite consuming many Spirit Pills, his injuries had barely recovered by fifty percent.

"That person is definitely not a relative of Hong Xiuyuan. Who is he, really?"

Being defeated in one strike by a mysterious person he’d never seen before was unbelievable if word got out and would lead to ridicule.

"I must report this to the Sect Master. There’s inexplicably such a terrifying expert within the sect."

On the same day, Guan Hongri took action.

However, the Sky Martial Sect Master and the Supreme Elder both declined Guan Hongri’s inquiries under the pretense of seclusion, leaving him astonished.

Why was the sect so indifferent to this Young Sect Master?

Wasn’t the sect afraid of any evil demons infiltrating?

"Could it be that this person is related to the Sect Master and the Supreme Elder but not convenient to reveal identity, so..."

But Guan Hongri swallowed his grievances, the Young Sect Master, having been severely humiliated, could only accept this.

From his viewpoint, that young man in black, probably because of his age, might be an illegitimate child of the Sect Master...

"Brother Guan, what does the Heavenly Martial Sect intend to do with that person?"

Meng Rong Can Guang asked.

His cultivation was lower than Guan Hongri’s, his physique less robust, and his condition was even more miserable, with his skeletal structure not yet mended, and unable to stand straight.

"The Sect Master and the Supreme Elder are both in seclusion, and Ye Luofeng is the Sect Master’s disciple, the upper echelon of the sect favors her, so this matter is hard to bring to justice..."

Guan Hongri concealed his conjectures and deliberately provoked Murong Can Guang.

"No matter what, he is dead. My grandfather is on his way. By then, that person will die without a doubt!"

Meng Rong Can Guang said viciously.

His injuries were far worse than Guan Hongri’s, and his long-cultivated "Ten Thousand Sword Body" was damaged. When this reached the Murong Family’s ears, Murong Can Guang’s grandfather was furious and intended to come personally for an explanation.

In the eyes of the Murong Family, the Heavenly Martial Sect was at fault, and compensation was inevitable.

"Your grandfather? Are you referring to the Sword Star Demigod?"

Guan Hongri breathed a bit more heavily.

As the Young Sect Master, he was willing to be on equal footing with Murong Can Guang, not only because the latter came from a Divine Realm Family but also because of Murong Can Guang’s demigod grandfather.

"Brother Can Guang, I stand with you on this."

Guan Hongri said, hoping to use this to suppress Ye Luofeng and at the same time cultivate good relations with the Murong Family.

...

One month later.

A dazzling sword light soared up Martial God Mountain.

In the courtyard, Murong Can Guang rushed out, looking up at a grey-clothed old man floating above, and immediately began to plead, "Grandfather, you must uphold justice for me."

The grey-clothed elder was indeed the "Sword Star Demigod," and his eyes suddenly sparkled with brilliance, unleashing a powerful Spiritual Sense to examine Murong Can Guang’s body, his face then darkening: "Such audacity, to dare destroy my grandson’s Ten Thousand Sword Body!"

"Recount the details of the incident one more time."

The Sword Star Demigod’s gaze was incomparably severe.

After listening to Murong Can Guang’s account, the Sword Star Demigod’s eyes shone even more brightly, "Rest assured, this time you are not to blame, and I will definitely drag that person out and make him kneel before you in apology."

"As for the Heavenly Martial Sect, they also need to publicly apologize, and the marriage alliance is something they should earnestly consider."

This time with a lever in hand against the Heavenly Martial Sect, the Murong Family was determined to extort them heavily.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The Sword Star Demigod and Murong Can Guang quickly left the place.

Along the way, the Sword Star Demigod found it strange: was the Sky Martial Sect Master and the Supreme Elder truly in seclusion? As a demigod arriving with such evident aura, why was there no movement from the Heavenly Martial Sect?

Or was it that the Heavenly Martial Sect knew they were in the wrong and decided to pretend like nothing happened?

As they neared the top of Martial God Mountain, it started raining nearby.

Though the rain felt a bit unusual, the Sword Star Demigod didn’t think much, as a Sword Dao Demigod, unless the Sky Martial Sect Master and the Supreme Elder appeared, who could defy him?

Soon, the Sword Star Demigod reached outside of Ye Luofeng’s cave mansion barrier.

"Greetings, Sword Star Demigod."

Guan Hongri flew out from another low peak.

"It seems the Heavenly Martial Sect doesn’t take the Murong Family seriously at all, injuring a promising member of our family, and there’s not even an explanation?"

The Sword Star Demigod shouted coldly.

"The Sect Master and the Supreme Elder are all in seclusion."

Guan Hongri replied truthfully.

"Though this is the Heavenly Martial Sect, since there are villains harming my grandson, if the Heavenly Martial Sect won’t act, then I’ll personally deal with this scoundrel!"

The Sword Star Demigod put his words there and did not intend to explain further.

"Those who harm the Murong Clan, come out and face your punishment."

The Sword Star Demigod suddenly shouted, and his demigod aura spread.

Boom!

The heavens and the earth trembled, and an intangible oppressive force formed into a vast storm of sword energy, howling in all directions.

Guan Hongri and Murong Can Guang both felt their bodies sway, as if the earth itself was shaking.

"Is this the power of a Demigod?"

Guan Hongri felt the terrifying pressure of the Sword Star Demigod’s aura and was incredibly awed.

However, Ye Luofeng’s cave mansion seemed to withstand this pressure, remaining unaffected and without any disturbance.

The Sword Star Demigod noticed this and snorted coldly: "Hmph, stubborn resistance, this Array, I can break it with one finger!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Sword Star Demigod pointed, and an abundant Star Origin Holy Power surged out, even mixed with a trace of divine power, condensing into an incomparably brilliant Star Sword!

"What a terrifying sword."

Guan Hongri felt that the aftermath of this sword might even be capable of killing him.

Swoosh!

Before Guan Hongri could see clearly, he saw the Starlight Sword stabbing into the Array outside the cave mansion.

He and Murong Can Guang anticipated the Array breaking and seeing Chen Yu’s panicked and fearful expression within the cave.

But the Array didn’t budge!

"Impossible, how could the Array here withstand a blow from a Demigod?"

Guan Hongri was extremely astonished.

The Sword Star Demigod’s eyes widened slightly, also surprised. .

"Cough, cough... Just now I was worried about splitting the mountain in half with one sword, so I only used fifty percent of my strength. Now I can attack with full force without worry!"

The Sword Star Demigod coughed and said seriously.

Then, he summoned more holy power, and a small amount of divine power was infused into the Starlight Sword.

Buzz!

The Starlight Sword’s radiance surged, becoming the most dazzling presence on Martial God Mountain.

The Sword Star Demigod attacked with all his might, but that Starlight Sword seemed fixed in place, unable to advance any further.

After three breaths.

The Sword Star Demigod gave up.

Beside him, Guan Hongri was incredibly shocked. How could Ye Luofeng’s cave have such a powerful defensive barrier that even a full-force attack from a Demigod could not break?

Being a sect master’s disciple himself, why didn’t he receive the same treatment?

"Damn it, how could this happen?"

The Sword Star Demigod was somewhat annoyed.

A full-force attack from him couldn’t break through—what kind of existence was inside?

Taking advantage of the Heavenly Martial Sect’s wrongdoing and his grandson being humiliated, his courage swelled.

"Star Nebula Sword Formation!"

The Sword Star Demigod took out his trump card.

In an instant, eighteen white light swords appeared in the void, forming a peculiar sword formation that enveloped the entire cave mansion barrier.

When the Star Nebula Sword Formation activated, it seemed as if endless sword lights were shuttling back and forth within, annihilating all matter.

Inside the cave mansion.

Ye Luofeng observed the situation outside.

Her cave mansion barrier had been fortified by Chen Yu with the Space Law, but Ye Luofeng didn’t expect that even the Sword Star Demigod’s trump card couldn’t break the Array.

"Should I ask Master to come forward and resolve this?"

Ye Luofeng inquired.

Chen Yu sat cross-legged, holding a water-attribute law crystal, comprehending the Water Principle.

"No need."

Chen Yu transmitted his voice through his divine soul.

An intangible flow of water rippled out from around Chen Yu, rotating with him at the center.

The teacup in front of Ye Luofeng suddenly melted into a transparent liquid, merging with the surrounding water flow.

Not only this teacup but many other things experienced the same change, except for her.

"Liquefying everything?"

Ye Luofeng was inwardly amazed. This was a level beyond her grasp.

Chen Yu slightly opened his eyes; the Water Principle was achieved!

Outside the cave mansion.

The Sword Star Demigod exerted his full strength in deploying the "Star Nebula Sword Formation!", attacking the barrier for ten whole breaths, yet with no result!

Just then, the rain around them began to fall more intensely, and the air became thick and moist.

The Sword Star Demigod watched as his own "Star Nebula Sword Formation" gradually dissipated.

"What’s going on?"

He was astonished, realizing the torrential rain was dissolving his Star Nebula Sword Formation, which was simply incredible!

Suddenly, ripples floated in the surrounding air, and water streams began to rise.

At this moment, the Sword Star Demigod felt unprecedented pressure, as if those spontaneously arisen water streams could threaten his life.

"Law!"

The Sword Star Demigod’s eyes opened wide.

He had condensed a trace of divine power to reach the Demigod status, with laws always being his exploration target.

But today, he witnessed the power of the Water Principle firsthand.

"A Demigod, or..."

The Sword Star Demigod felt uncertain, his expression becoming serious.
