I Have A Sword

"Go ahead and give it a try!"

When Jing Chu's voice fell, Fu Wu vanished into thin air.

Boom!

A streak of sword light streaked across the arena, carrying a terrifying sword intent. Every inch of spacetime in the way of the sword light disintegrated inch by inch as it made its way to its target.

Jing Chu disappeared as well, and waves of formidable martial intent pervaded the heavens and the earth.

Sword intent!

Martial intent!

The two terrifying forces sent a tremor across the chaotic ancient spacetime.

Fortunately, a mysterious force was constantly repairing the chaotic ancient spacetime. If it hadn't been for that mysterious force, the battlefield would have been reduced to nothing by now. Despite the frantic repairs, some areas still looked pitch-black, struggling to recover.

The cultivators who were lurking in the dark were greatly alarmed. They retreated and dared not approach the battlefield.

Just then, the two ladies collided fiercely.

Boom!

With this collision, the chaotic ancient spacetime plunged into darkness.

A deathly silence descended.

The Tianxing Civilization's cultivators stared intently at the chaotic ancient spacetime with their hearts racing. They knew what Fu Wu's victory meant.

This battle was a matter of life or death for the Tianxing Civilization, after all.

Ye Guan was also staring at the chaotic ancient spacetime, wondering who would prevail. Yi Nian was also tense, and her left hand gripped Ye Guan's hand tightly. If Chief Enforcement Officer Fu Wu won, the Tianxing Civilization would face annihilation.

Fu Wu was on a murderous spree, and no one could stop her except for Chief Enforcement Officer Jing Chu.

Just then, under the influence of a mysterious power, the chaotic ancient spacetime restored itself.

Fu Wu and Jing Chu appeared in front of everyone.

The two women were facing each other from a distance.

There was a sword stuck in Jing Chu's chest, and blood was dripping down the sword. Blood was gushing out from the corners of Fu Wu's mouth, and her clothes had turned crimson. Apart from that, her figure appeared to be illusory; her fleshly body was intact, but she was undoubtedly injured. Ř𝘢

The collision had ended in mutual harm!

Fu Wu wiped away the blood from the corner of her mouth, but more blood flowed out of her lips. She then ignored it and ambled toward Jing Chu.

"Today, I will destroy the Tianxing Civilization," Fu Wu said, staring straight at Jing Chu.

The sword in Jing Chu's chest shook violently, trying to kill her, but her martial intent suppressed it. Jing Chu clenched her hands together and stared at Fu Wu with determination in her eyes. "Over my dead body."

With that, Jing Chu roared and forced the sword out of her chest. Then, she took to the air and made a beeline for Fu Wu with the momentum of a mountain.

Fu Wu pressed her fingers together and pointed at Jing Chu. Instantly, millions of sword lights surged out of her fingertip. The sword lights were like a boundless sea, inundating everything.

Boom!

A kaleidoscope of sword lights exploded, and the newly repaired spacetime was shattered once again, reduced to nothing but a pitch-black void.

Under everyone's gaze, the two women flew backward at the same time.

They were blown tens of thousands of meters away.

Jing Chu stopped and sprawled out in the void as blood flowed down her lips. She had hundreds of sword cuts all over her, and the wounds were gnawing away at her vitality.

Fu Wu was sprawled out in the void as well. A myriad of fist lights were wreaking havoc inside her, destroying her vitality.

The two ladies were seriously injured.

Soon, Fu Wu stood up slowly. She glanced at the motionless Jing Chu and turned around. Taking a step forward, she appeared in front of Ye Guan and the others.

She was transfixed on the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone as she started walking toward it, leaving bloody footprints with every step.

After a few steps, she turned around and saw Jing Chu standing a hundred meters behind her with blood dripping down her figure.

Jing Chu looked at Fu Wu and mumbled, "I'm not… dead yet."

Jing Chu coughed a mouthful of blood, staining the ground beneath her in a crimson hue.

The Tianxing cultivators were reduced to tears at the sight.

Tears welled up in Yi Nian's eyes as well. She once dreamed of becoming a Chief Enforcement Officer, as it was a really prestigious role, and it would be nice to be the subject of every fruit's admiration.

However, Yi Nian no longer dreamed of becoming one, as the responsibility that came with the role was just too heavy for her to bear.

When Fu Wu heard Jing Chu's words, she walked toward her and said, "I'll kill you first, then."

Fu Wu spread her palms open, and a sword appeared in her hand.

Swoosh!

Fu Wu disappeared on the spot.

Jing Chu didn't dodge, allowing Fu Wu to pierce her abdomen with her sword.

As soon as the sword dug into her flesh, however, Jing Chu threw herself on Fu Wu, embracing the latter with both arms. Moments later, her fleshly body and soul ignited, and a purple-red flame flew out from her glabella.

The purple-red flame enveloped the two women in an instant.

Are they trying to die together? Everyone was stunned.

Jing Chu and Fu Wu's vitality was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Fu Wu gripped the sword with her right hand and rotated it in an effort to kill Jing Chu, but Jing Chu hugged Fu Wu as tightly as possible.

She truly wanted to die with her.

The purple-red flames burned fiercely, and the two women's figures became even more illusory!

Just then, a golden beam of light descended and struck the purple-red flames.

Boom!

The flames shattered, and the two ladies were forcibly separated.

Everyone looked up and saw a golden beam of light in the sky. A middle-aged man walked out of the beam of golden light. He was clad in a dragon robe, and there was a white jade belt around his waist.

He had the bearing of a god, exuding might and dominance as he strode forward.

Everyone was confused at the sight.

Wu Yi said in a deep voice, "The Holy King? What is he doing?"

"He probably doesn't want Chief Enforcement Fu Wu to die just like that. If he manages to get her to work for our Great Sorcerer Clan, it'd be an achievement greater than obtaining the Tianxing Civilization.

"Anyway, they're both injured, and Jing Chu cannot fight anymore," the elder explained.

Wu Yi remained silent. Indeed, if they got Fu Wu to work for the Great Sorcerer Clan, it'd be a huge advantage for them.

Fu Wu was incredibly strong, after all.

However, Wu Yi's intuition told her that since Fu Wu was so formidable, wouldn't that mean she was exceedingly arrogant? Would she really surrender so easily?

Still, there was no harm in trying; the two were already exhausted anyway.

Just then, Wu Yi recalled something and shot a cold glare at Ye Guan. Her eyes were full of thick, killing intent as she stared at him.

The Holy King's gaze fell on Fu Wu, and he smiled faintly before saying, "Chief Enforcement Officer Fu Wu, please forgive me for my rash actions. I just felt that if you had died just like that, it would have been tantamount to just a slap on the Tianxing Civilization's wrist.

"Now, feel free to seek revenge on them!"

Fu Wu stood up slowly and ignored the Holy King. She stared at Jing Chu in the distance instead. "Even if he hadn't made a move, you wouldn't have been able to kill me."

Boom!

An extremely terrifying sword force erupted from Fu Wu, and a mirror suddenly appeared between her glabella. The mirror carried with it flames that seemed to resemble a scorching star.

"The Mirror of God!" the Tianxing denizens exclaimed.

The Mirror of God was ranked second among the ten divine artifacts in the Tianxing Civilization, and it was a divine artifact passed down from generation to generation between Chief Enforcement Officers.

It contained the Tianxing Yin Flame—a flame derived from the Tianxing Dao Flame. Its might was second only to the Tianxing Ruler's Tianxing Dao Flame.

Additionally, the Mirror of God had the terrifying ability to suppress all Tianxing Flames except for the Tianxing Dao Flame. Now, it was impossible for Jing Chu to bring Fu Wu down with her using her purple-red Tianxing Flame.

However, Fu Wu was quite arrogant as well. She hadn't been using the Tianxing Yin Flame against Jing Chu. However, Jing Chu had used her Tianxing Flame to try and bring down Fu Wu with her, so the latter no longer had any reservations.

Fu Wu turned and walked toward the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone while staring intently at it. She was reminded of her lover before saying, "The Tianxing Civilization tortured you to death, so I will them all."

Jing Chu sprawled out in the void took a deep breath. Although it was difficult, she forced herself to stand up. There was a sword stuck in her abdomen, and she was covered with sword wounds.

She could hardly stand and was covered in blood all over, but she ambled toward Fu Wu, leaving behind bloody footprints.

One of the Tianxing Civilization's elders walked out. He looked at Jing Chu and said in a trembling voice, "Chief Enforcement Officer… It's enough. It's really enough."

Jing Chu ignored the elder and stared at Fu Wu in the distance.

"I, Jing Chu, do solemnly swear to the heavens that I will not be afraid in the face of a powerful enemy. My will is clear, and I will protect my people. I'd rather die than surrender. As long as there is a fruit to protect behind me, I will fight to the last drop of my blood."

The Chief Enforcement Officer Declaration!

Hearing that, the Tianxing denizens could no longer hold back their tears and sobbed loudly.

Chief Enforcement Officer Jing Chu! She was the Saintess of the Tianxing Civilization! As long as there was a fruit to protect behind her, she was going to fight to the last drop of her blood!

Tears streamed down Yi Nian's face.

Fu Wu stopped walking. She had recited that as well, but now… Fu Wu shook her head and continued walking toward the Reincarnation Ancestral Stone. The Tianxing Yin Flame burned fiercely between her brows.

The Reincarnation Ancestral Stone did not bother making any attempts to escape, as it knew that it had no chance at all. However, it felt resentful. This fight was between two fruits, so why was it that it had to suffer?

Just then, a mysterious wave of energy pervaded between the heaven and the earth. The next moment, a streak of green light rushed out of Ye Guan and blocked Fu Wu.

The green light was a tree—the Tianxing Life Tree!

Everyone was shocked. Why had the Tianxing Life Tree chosen to appear now?

Had it appeared to be killed?

Fu Wu stared at the Tianxing Life Tree, and the sword in her hand trembled slightly at the sight of it.

The Tianxing Life Tree said, "Fu Wu, you once swore an oath in front of me. As a fruit of the Tianxing Civilization, you ought to fight for the Tianxing Civilization. Are you breaking your oath?"

Without hesitation, Fu Wu exclaimed, "Yes!"

After a moment of silence, the Tianxing Life Tree said, "Those who break the oath shall face the consequences."

Boom!

A terrifying black light pervaded everything between the heaven and the earth, and the mysterious energy from the black light melted into Fu Wu.

Fu Wu's eyes widened, and her face distorted in pain. The oath was made voluntarily; she was not being coerced at all, so it was binding.

And the consequences of breaking the oath were severe!

Fu Wu stretched out her right hand and thrust it into her abdomen. She forcibly removed the life seed within her and roared, "I am no longer a fruit of the Tianxing Civilization!"

Fu Wu clenched her right hand violently.

Boom!

Her life seed was shattered into pieces.

Having broken her oath, Fu Wu's vitality began to fade rapidly…

In less than half an hour, she'd completely disappear, and she wouldn't be able to regenerate nor reincarnate!
