Comprehension Ability: I Come From the Great Emperor Family

"If I had known it would harm you so, I should have never met you in the first place."

"Qing'er, I'm sorry..."

As Zhao Cheng's body dissipated completely, he reluctantly glanced at Liu Qing, then looked up at Wu Jiuling in the sky, smiling as he bid farewell,

"Teacher, your disciple... is leaving."

With those words, Zhao Cheng vanished into countless sparks, scattered by the wind from the void.

Su Changqing turned his head, his eyes slightly reddened, while above, Wu Jiuling extended one trembling hand.

"Brother Cheng!"

"Brother Cheng!"

"Zhao Cheng! Come back, sob sob..."

The woman let out a hysterical cry, desperately and hopelessly trying to grasp at the vanishing lights, but to no avail.

She woke up, recovering her senses from the tremendous blow of Liu Cheng's appearance and disappearance.

But at this moment, she wished she could remain deranged, living forever in her own world, rather than, upon waking, face this separation of life and death.

"Why do you cry for him!"

"It was he who harmed you so, who caused the Liu family to be like this today!"

"He's just an ordinary poor boy, what's so nostalgic about him!"

Liu Qing struggled to sit up, shouting angrily with a fierce expression.

"A poor boy?"

"Do you know that this poor boy easily defeated you in the past, yet willingly let you break all his bones?"

"Do you know that this poor boy almost lost his life to save me back then!"

Liu Qing smiled tragically, "It was I who harmed him, causing him to die young, his remains unburied."

Liu Qing's eyes showed disbelief as he glanced at the pile of bones.

Back then, Zhao Cheng... was actually holding back against him, enduring his bullying without any retaliation?

Liu Qing's mentality collapsed, he laughed maniacally, pointing at Liu Qing,

"You're lying, this must not be true!"

"It's all because of your willfulness, the Liu family has painstakingly nurtured you for years with wealth and prosperity!"

"But when it was time for you to give back, you threatened with your life, leading to this situation because of you!"

Tears streamed down Liu Qing's eyes silently as she gave a bitter smile.

On one side is the father and elder brother, pressed by the word 'filial.'

On the other side is the lover and the future, entangled by the word 'love.'

No one knows her pain, her difficulty, and no one understands her helplessness and despair.

Of course, once there was someone who did, but now there is none.

"Junior Brother Chang Qing."

Liu Qing suddenly regained her calm, gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and looked at Su Changqing,

"Could you do me a favor?"

Su Changqing nodded, his expression complex.

"Zhao Cheng once said there is a Holy Snow Peak in the Northern Region, pure and clean, far from the mundane."

"We once agreed to go see it together, but... we've lost the chance."

Liu Qing's face showed a smile as she looked into the distance and a roaring blaze suddenly erupted from her body.

Embracing Zhao Cheng's remains, with eyes full of gentleness she softly spoke, "Please, Junior Brother, make a trip in the future and bury Zhao Cheng and me there."

"I also want to see his hometown, thank you..."

The all-consuming fire devoured Liu Qing and the pile of bones, without screams, without wails, only endless tender affection intertwined.

The two turned to ash, Su Changqing silently waved his large sleeve, taking out a jade bottle, carefully placing 'the two' together inside.

"Holy Snow Peak... I will go."

Su Changqing responded silently, carefully placing the jade bottle into his ring.

"Hahaha, good riddance to death!"

"You brought me, brought the Liu family to this, you should have died long ago!"

Liu Qing's harsh and frenzied laughter made Su Changqing glance over expressionlessly.

"You... what are you going to do!"

"Your Senior Brother said not to kill me!"

Realizing the killing intent emanating from Su Changqing, Liu Qing was instantly awakened, retreating backwards in fear.

Su Changqing said nothing, merely stomped heavily, causing Liu Qing's fallen long knife to rise into the air.

With a wave of his wide sleeve, the long knife pierced accurately through Liu Qing's chest with a thud.

Facing Liu Qing's incredulous gaze, Su Changqing spoke softly, "My Senior Brother not killing you is his decision."

"Now that my Senior Brother and Senior Sister Liu Qing are gone, how can you be allowed to live?"

Without sparing Liu Qing another glance, Su Changqing turned around and lightly stepped out of the courtyard gate.

Outside, the crowd was dense but silent, staring blankly at the departing young man.

No one expected that just one young man could have brought the Liu family to such a state.

They understood, from this day forth, the Liu family would likely be stricken from the hidden aristocratic clans.

"Hehe, hahaha!"

At this moment, Wu Jiuling above the sky suddenly burst into laughter.

The desolation and fury within that sound sent chills down everyone's spines, instilling fear.

"Right or wrong, I no longer have the heart to distinguish."

"My disciple is dead. Today, I will protect his journey to reincarnation with the blood of the entire Liu family!"

With these words, Wu Jiuling roared in anger.

"Heaven-Opening Axe, solidify!"

Boom!

Divine light surged across the sky, a Heaven-Opening Axe filled with profound beauty appeared in Wu Jiuling's hand.

The violent aura of a Peak of Quasi-Emperor engulfed the small world.

Without any hesitation, Wu Jiuling slashed directly towards the Longevity Hall with his axe.

"Liu Tianming, come out and face your death!"

Boom!

The sky shattered suddenly, the terrifying axe light seemed capable of splitting both heaven and earth, carving deep ravines in the sky.

The entire Longevity Hall exploded violently, and powerful figures from all corners of the world scattered like birds and beasts, hurriedly fleeing in fear.

At this moment, a terrifying aura erupted from deep within the Liu family.

Buzz!

A long whip emitting green divine light, like a giant dragon, coiled through the sky, blocking the descending axe.

That was the Liu family's Great Emperor's Divine Weapon, the Cui Divine Whip!

"Wu Jiuling, back then you fled like a stray dog because of the Cui Divine Whip."

"Today you've come again, do you have a way to counter it?"

Liu Tianming took the lead, followed by the elders of the Liu family, and above their heads, a long whip shining with endless divine light coiled like a giant dragon.

The Great Emperor's Divine Weapon was fully awakened, its terrifying aura shaking the heavens, each movement causing the heavens to wail and the void to collapse.

"Ha, if I wasn't prepared, why would I be here?"

As the words fell, Wu Jiuling shouted sharply, "Spear, come!"

Boom!

The cosmos parted, and a gigantic spear emitting deep black light, like a black dragon, descended with a crash.

The terrifying aura rose to the sky, causing vast areas of the void to constantly collapse.

The chilling light at the tip of the spear, even without being wielded, caused cracks to appear in the firmament.

Everyone present felt their scalps tingling at this sight.

An Emperor's Weapon!

A fully awakened Emperor's Weapon!

The clash of two fully awakened Emperor's Weapons, the terrifying resonance, would likely tear this world apart.

Without hesitation, everyone went mad, fleeing towards the exit of the small world.

"Great Cyan Spear!"

Liu Tianming's pupils constricted, "It seems you have a good relationship with Su Nan, even able to borrow such a thing from the Su family."

Wu Jiuling's face remained calm, his eyes icy.

If he had decided to come, how could he fight an uncertain battle?

Upon learning he was coming to bring Su Changqing to the Liu family, Su Nan, without a word, handed him the Great Cyan Spear.

Only an Emperor's Weapon can counter another Emperor's Weapon.

Though Wu Jiuling's physical body was formidable, how many hits could he withstand?

But with an Emperor's Weapon as support, it was entirely different, even if he couldn't unleash the full power of the Great Cyan Spear.

As long as he could hold back the Cui Divine Whip, then slaughtering the Liu family would be as easy as flipping a hand!

"Enough talk, kill!"

Wu Jiuling didn't waste any words, shouting fiercely while swinging his axe with force.

The ferocious power of a Peak of Quasi-Emperor erupted, accompanied by the boundless sharpness of the Heaven-Opening Axe, shaking and lamenting the heavens and earth.

Fierce cracks instantly spread across the sky, and the ground sank.

The Liu family members finally panicked at this moment, collectively wielding the Cui Divine Whip, only to be firmly blocked by the Great Cyan Spear.

But the massive axe wielded by Wu Jiuling instantly left the Liu family in shambles, blood and flesh flying.

Surrounded by the fire of life, wielding the massive axe, Wu Jiuling charged straight at Liu Tianming like an unstoppable god-demon.

"Today, the Liu family will be erased from the world!"

Wu Jiuling's grand voice thundered through the heavens and earth.

But at this moment, Liu Tianming's face showed no fear, instead, he laughed heartily.

"Hahaha, you're right, from today on, the Liu family will be nameless in the world."

"But it's not because of you, Wu Jiuling!"

As his words fell, endless darkness suddenly surged around Liu Tianming, deep demonic lines spread from his neck.

An aura of ultimate evil permeated the small world, endless black demonic qi rising from the shattered earth.

"Because..."

With his temperament completely changed, the sinister and cold Liu Tianming looked at Wu Jiuling with a grin,

"I have chosen to join the darkness!"

Boom!

With his words, a massive black whirlpool surfaced behind Liu Tianming, spanning a thousand zhang.

Figures shrouded in darkness stepped out one by one, their terrifying aura resonating with the heavens.

This scene caused Wu Jiuling and everyone present to change their expressions drastically.

"The Dark Forbidden Area, has emerged!"
