Gou Zai Yao Wu Simulated Immortal

Chapter 15 I'd Rather Be Myself

"You alone lead the way with your sword, while thousands of dead souls protect you, along with your two brothers and your mother in the carriage."

"If you come, I will slay you; if you block my way, I will break through your formation. Wherever blood flows, corpses lie everywhere."

"Only then did the two brothers and their mother truly understand."

"The person they dragged back to the cave from the rocky slope and saved by feeding him dew was none other than the infamous Broken Sword Maniac from back then."

You know the answer in your heart.

"If they want to return to the Great Sun alive, they cannot get too close."

"You deliberately left the carriages and horses far behind, leaving only four of your strongest undead sword slaves to escort them."

"Among them was Yu Xianzhi."

"This sword slave has been refined by the demonic sword for many years, and its movements have begun to resemble those of a living person."

"And you yourself, sword in hand, venture alone into the deepest part of the battlefield."

"The moment you step into the battlefield where the human and demon armies clash, the sounds of battle from all sides immediately press down like a tidal wave."

"The banners were half-broken, and blood flowed like rivers."

"Between heaven and earth, the sounds of battle echoed like a tidal wave."

"The human race lined up with torches, their armor gleaming across the fields, their military formations spreading out from the mountain pass, and an iron river surging endlessly across the land."

"The six demon clan caves swept in from the edge of the wasteland, their banners made of animal skins and their horns of human bones, their dark mass obscuring half the sky."

"The moment the two sides clashed, spears broke, flags snapped, armor cracked, horns shattered, and swathes of human figures and demon bodies fell together."

"Even the clouds in the sky were stained blood-red by this malevolent aura."

"Broken flags, tattered armor, human bones, and demon corpses litter the wasteland."

"You're advancing instead of retreating."

"With a thought, Yu Xianzhi, who was driving far behind, sensed it, raised his head slightly, and bowed in a gesture of respect towards your direction."

"That bow was as if a living person were saying goodbye."

"After the ceremony, he immediately left the battlefield, took his carriage and horses, and sped towards the border of the Great Japanese Empire."

"And you stand amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood, surrounded by the souls of the dead, watching the carriage recede into the distance."

"Only after confirming that they had escaped several miles away did you slowly turn around, face the armies on both sides, and laugh loudly."

"Li Qian, the swordsman obsessed with the broken sword, is willing to die!"

"Who dares to challenge me!"

"This shout reverberated across the plains, causing the battle between the two armies to pause for a moment."

"Only one man and one sword stood in the center of the battlefield."

"The reef before the giant wave, knowing it will eventually crumble, still insists on blocking the wind and waves for that small boat."

Suddenly, an old man shouted from within the human ranks: "I'll go and meet him!"

Then someone else responded in a long voice: "Let's go together!"

"In an instant, three supreme masters from the human race stepped out of the formation."

"On the other side, demonic clouds churned, and six terrifying demonic auras rose simultaneously."

"The six demon kings have all shown themselves."

……

-----------------

"On the other side, Yu Xianzhi escorted the carriage and horses at high speed, and finally saw the Great Wall of the Great Japanese border in the distance."

"Banners fluttered atop the city walls, and braziers shone like stars."

"Yu Xianzhi made a decisive decision and abandoned the carriage."

"He and several other sword slaves, each carrying one of them, rushed straight towards the city wall."

"One of the sword slaves secretly possessed the guards, using their eyes and ears to conceal their movements."

"At that time, the border guards' attention was already firmly drawn to the earth-shattering battle in the distance."

"No one noticed that a group of people took advantage of the chaos to climb over the city wall and sneak into the territory of Da Ri."

"This battle lasted for five days and four nights."

"As the fighting progressed, even the two sides could no longer distinguish who was friend and who was foe."

"When the wind and clouds subsided, all that remained was scorched earth and a bottomless pit."

"As for Li Qian, the Sword-Breaking Maniac, he has vanished without a trace."

"From then on, rumors spread throughout the border regions."

"Some say that Wan Yao Di truly lived up to his name, killing all six demon kings in a frenzy."

"Some storytellers slammed their fists on the table and said, 'He was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, not even a hair on the head of the supreme master. The master could crush him to dust with a wave of his hand.'"

"Some people have gone even further, saying that the Demon Enemy and the Broken Sword Maniac Li Qian entered the Dao through martial arts, and became an immortal through the disintegration of his body, so his remains were never found."

"There are many conflicting opinions, and no one knows the truth."

"But the two beggar brothers knew."

"That elder brother who fed them but refused to teach them swordsmanship, and who lived like a silent gourd all day long, is indeed dead."

"He and his followers also vanished without a trace."

"All they remember is that when they looked back that day, the sky in the distance was shattered, and blood and fire filled the sky."

"And that gaunt figure stood there with his sword in hand, never looking back."

……

"You have lived to be thirty-seven years old. Simulation over."
