Chapter 2068: Chapter 2066: Zhao Tianyi, a Devoted Man

On the night of the full moon, at the peak of martial arts, a sword came from the west, an immortal from beyond the heavens!

These four lines, sixteen words, brought Ye Tianchen immense shock. However, he didn’t know how much of a shock these sixteen words had once brought to the martial arts world, even possessing a kind of aura that intimidated all clans!

”Zhao Tianyi is the heir of the Zhao family?” Ye Tianchen came back to his senses and couldn’t help but ask.

”Yes, I can confirm it now. This is merely a wisp of Zhao Tianyi’s obsessional spirit, but I didn’t expect that the legend was true. It’s been nearly tens of thousands of years, and he is still so persistent. This man is truly extraordinary!” Princess Zi Xuan frowned and said.

It turns out!

Not long after the ancient alien race ruled the martial arts world, the demon clan emerged with a place of their own, and when the human clan was extremely weak yet slowly growing stronger, several powerful cultivation families of the human clan were the strongest legacies at that time, and the Zhao family was one of them!

The surname Zhao is an ancient and profound surname. Even in the current Chinese secular world, the surname Zhao ranks among the top. This is not a random ranking, but one with subtle evidence; otherwise, why wouldn’t another surname be ranked at the top?

The rise of several large cultivation families of the human clan also led to the rise of the human clan in the martial arts world, ensuring they were not enslaved or used as blood food, which was naturally something the ancient alien race and the demon clan would not sit idly by and let happen. Under these circumstances, the powerful legacies of the human clan were extremely dangerous, and life was not easy. It was at this time that a prodigy emerged from the Zhao family, shaking the entire martial arts world. That person was Zhao Tianyi!

All along, there had been no mention of a person named Zhao Tianyi in the martial arts world. However, he became famous overnight, won fame in a single battle, because a formidable creature from the ancient alien race wanted to annihilate the Zhao family. This formidable creature was also infamous in the martial arts world, but it was unexpected that it went with no return, being slain with a single sword by Zhao Tianyi!

Immediately after, rumors emerged saying that a prodigy from the Zhao family, Zhao Tianyi, at the age of merely twenty, had already cultivated the absolute skill, ”A sword comes from the west, an immortal from beyond the heavens,” left by the ancestor of the Zhao family to the realm of great achievement. What a natural disposition this was! Not to mention cultivators of the same generation, even elder figures dared not underestimate him!

The sudden appearance of Zhao Tianyi led many beings to speculate that for many years, the Zhao family had been secretly nurturing this prodigy. Now that Zhao Tianyi had cultivated the swordsmanship absolute skill left by the Zhao family ancestor to great achievement, even though he wasn’t invincible, he was unparalleled. Even when encountering elder great divine ability users, he had the power to protect himself. It was time for him to venture out and wander the mortal world!

However, what nobody expected was, after a year of venturing out, Zhao Tianyi also rose to fame and shook the martial arts world, making the Zhao family’s reputation flourish for a time. When the Zhao family called him back, saying they wanted to pass the position of family head to Zhao Tianyi, he unexpectedly refused. Moreover, he told the elder figures of the Zhao family he had no intention of becoming the head of the Zhao family nor of contending for supremacy, only wishing to roam the martial arts world and forge himself...

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Zhao family was shocked. They never expected Zhao Tianyi to have ”lost ambition,” disappointing everyone. As a martial artist, you cannot escape the fate of killing and warfare. Only by becoming stronger can you survive, can you protect those around you. However, Zhao Tianyi, such a prodigy destined to be recorded in the martial history books, with potential to reach the peak of martial arts, why had he already ”lost ambition”? What was going on?

Zhao Tianyi refused to take on the position of family head, and even told the elder figures of the Zhao family that he wanted to venture out and would not return to the Zhao family in a short period. As this news spread, many in the Zhao family couldn’t understand why, didn’t know what Zhao Tianyi had experienced during the year he was out venturing. At that moment, news emerged from the ancient alien race, saying Zhao Tianyi had pledged his life with the Divine Silkworm Princess, and the two were preparing to retreat from the glitz of the mortal world and the disputes of the martial arts world, flying together like birds!

Upon learning of this news, the Zhao family wanted to dissuade Zhao Tianyi, but unexpectedly, Zhao Tianyi’s mind was made up. He loved the Divine Silkworm Princess deeply, they had made a vow together, determined to retreat, which was like a bolt from the blue for the Zhao family, a feeling of impending doom!

In this situation, the elder figures of the Zhao family used a powerful formation to trap Zhao Tianyi, not allowing him to leave the Zhao family. Unfortunately, Zhao Tianyi was indeed a prodigy, even shattering the binding formation of several elder figures of the Zhao family. Zhao Tianyi broke out of the Zhao family and went to the place he and the Divine Silkworm Princess had agreed to meet, only to find out that the Divine Silkworm Princess had not come!

One day!

Two days!

Three days...

Five days and nights passed, and the Divine Silkworm Princess still hadn’t arrived. Zhao Tianyi couldn’t help but become anxious. At this moment, he received a message that the Divine Silkworm Princess had been imprisoned by the Divine Silkworm Clan because of her relationship with him, and was even tortured, forced to kill Zhao Tianyi. However, the Divine Silkworm Princess refused and was consequently imprisoned by the Divine Silkworm Clan and tortured day and night!

Anyone could imagine, throughout the ages, the martial arts world has experienced countless years, with continuous strife and slaughter among the ancient alien race, the demon clan, and the human clan, each wishing to exterminate the other’s species, harboring endless hatred and enmity. A prodigy like Zhao Tianyi of the human clan, with great potential to reach the peak of martial arts, how could the ancient alien race and the demon clan not fear him? Wishing to tear Zhao Tianyi limb from limb immediately, how could they allow him to fly together as one with the Divine Silkworm Princess?

Upon learning that the Divine Silkworm Princess was trapped by the Divine Silkworm Clan, Zhao Tianyi said nothing more, shouldered his purple longsword, and charged toward the Divine Silkworm Clan. The elder figures of the Zhao family blocked him, telling Zhao Tianyi that it might be a trap, that it might have been a trap from the start, that the Divine Silkworm Princess deliberately encountered him, developed feelings with him, all to hinder his ”ambition and aspiration,” and this time’s matter was to lure Zhao Tianyi into the Divine Silkworm Clan to completely annihilate him!

Obviously, Zhao Tianyi does not believe it. Over the past year, the feelings he has shared with the Divine Silkworm Princess, the memories of their time together, are vivid and unforgettable. How could he possibly believe it’s all false? Zhao Tianyi refuses to believe it; even if it’s true, he must ask the Divine Silkworm Princess herself...

Charging against the Divine Silkworm Clan, Zhao Tianyi’s prowess is absolutely astonishing. Especially his purple longsword, almost unstoppable, directly delivering shock kills to many Divine Silkworm Clan creatures. By the time he found the place where the Divine Silkworm Princess was imprisoned, he was covered in blood because the Divine Silkworm Clan indeed anticipated Zhao Tianyi would come to rescue the Divine Silkworm Princess, setting up a Heavenly Net. Zhao Tianyi was remarkably talented, yet he got injured. But he didn’t care, he only cared about the Divine Silkworm Princess, cared only about the feelings in his heart!

”Can’er, I’m here, are you okay?” Zhao Tianyi asked, his voice tinged with some concern, as he looked at the Divine Silkworm Princess trapped in mid-air.

”Why did you come here?” The Divine Silkworm Princess’s complexion was pale, with many of her meridians broken, very weak, and almost lifeless!

”Because I waited for you under that ten-thousand red flowers, for five days and nights, without seeing you come!” Zhao Tianyi said sadly.

”I wanted to come, but I... Tianyi, leave quickly, go!” the Divine Silkworm Princess hurriedly said as if realizing something.

”I’ve come, and I want to be with you!” Zhao Tianyi said, his eyes resolute.

”Leave quickly, they’ve already set up the Great Formation, aiming to kill you!” The Divine Silkworm Princess was so anxious that tears were about to fall!

”I know, but since I’m here, I will take you away with me, since I’m here, no one can disturb us!” Zhao Tianyi’s longsword emitted a deep blue glow.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The Great Formation, set up long ago by the Divine Silkworm Clan, activated, relentlessly suppressing Zhao Tianyi with an overwhelmingly powerful momentum, even shattering the void. Seeing this, the Divine Silkworm Princess’s tears fell immediately as she cried loudly, ”Tianyi, go quickly, don’t care about me...”

”I’ve said it; since I’m here, we will leave together!” Zhao Tianyi said coldly.

”Zhao Tianyi, you are truly arrogant, this is the Ancient Array of our Divine Silkworm Clan, you can’t escape even if you were a Saint!” A cold voice sounded.

”Divine Silkworm, for the sake of you being Can’er’s brother, I don’t want to kill you, but don’t force me!” Zhao Tianyi said coldly.

”Hmph, get out of this Great Formation first, I told you, even Saint Realm cannot break through, let alone you!” Divine Silkworm snorted disdainfully.

”Saint? It’s just another realm in martial arts...” As Zhao Tianyi’s words just fell, the purple longsword in his hand trembled, a purple sword light blasted towards a corner of the Great Formation.

Bang!

A loud noise reverberated as this piece of heaven and earth seemed to tremble. Zhao Tianyi’s sword unexpectedly blasted open a breach in the Ancient Array of the Divine Silkworm Clan. This scene astonished all the beings of the Divine Silkworm Clan watching this!

The Divine Silkworm Clan’s Ancient Array, although incomplete, is not something a typical person can break through. Zhao Tianyi breaking through it was remarkable enough, but simply swinging a sword casually—how powerful must this sword be?

Boom!

A middle-aged man in silver armor, wielding a battle spear, descended from the sky, pointing his spear coldly at Zhao Tianyi and said disdainfully, ”Zhao Tianyi, if you want to take my sister, first ask this battle spear in my hand!” (To be continued.
