971 Heavy Sword Li Chou

Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu turned silent and began to recall the bits and pieces of his old life and his destined immortal weapon.

While Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu thought about those things, two teardrops streaked across his face without him realizing it. The memories prompted him to share his experiences with Li Yunmu.

His heavy sword had been called Li Chou, which was also the name of his wife. The people of the world knew that Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu loved his wife, but they didn’t know just how deep it went.

Before Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu had attained his glory, he had made the other emperors feel a sense of crisis due to his terrifying innate aptitude.

At that time, he had been the number one person below the emperor realm and was very proud. He didn’t place the emperor realm powerhouses in his eyes, but no one could say anything about it since he had the capital to do so.

Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu had battled four famous emperors with an immortal realm cultivation and successfully killed three of them while the last one fled in defeat. Those events established the brilliant reputation of Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu.

But it also alarmed all the other heavenly emperors. If he was so terrifying at immortal realm, then once he stepped into emperor realm, would anyone be able to deal with him?

After that, the emperor who had escaped previously acted as the leader and brought five emperor powerhouses to take action and jointly attacked Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu. They didn’t even hesitate to abandon the dignity of powerhouses and arranged a killing spell to wipe him out completely.

Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu didn’t know about the scheme and was spending his days with his wife in peace when he suddenly detected an attack full of killing intent. It shattered their house, angering him to no end.

The emperor powerhouses didn’t intend to give any opportunity for Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu to escape and directly unleashed the killing spell. One after another, crimson blade tips rushed toward him. He noticed the danger, but there was nothing he could do to avoid it.

At that moment, Li Chou rushed forward. She was also an immortal realm powerhouse and was the second young miss of Ancient Spell Clan. She saw through the core of the killing spell and knew what she had to do.

The core of the spell was created using a thousand types of metal, so it couldn’t be destroyed without the combined strength of two people. However, Li Chou belonged to Ancient Spell Clan and could destroy ten thousand formations with her blood essence. In that desperate situation, she charged toward the spell and forced out the blood essence from her entire body.

It left her extremely weak, but the large spell was destroyed.

When Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu saw his wife lying on the ground, blood rushed to his head and his eyes turned red.

After the Heavenly Emperors saw that things were far from encouraging, they anxiously went to fight themselves. But how could they contend against Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu?

Soon, three of the heavenly emperors perished. When the remaining powerhouses saw that, they fled in defeat. But they soon discovered that not only was their strength incomparable to that of Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu, his speed was also superior.

Another heavenly emperor soon perished, but just when Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu was about to settle the matter with the expert who had plotted against him twice, the sect backing that expert arrived.

He stopped his pursuit then and retreated to take care of Li Chou. Once he took hold of her, the heavenly emperor who had been able to escape released his most powerful attack. It rushed toward Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu’s back like a viper.

Upon seeing it, Li Chou in Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu’s bosom struggled free from his arms and became a shield to protect him.

The attack pierced her chest, and Li Chou spat out a mouthful of blood. At the sight of it, Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu’s eyes went wide, and he was ready to risk his life there and then.

But a tender and white hand pulled at him, and he looked at Li Chou. Her complexion had turned deathly pale, and her body was incomparably weak. Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu could already sense her vitality draining out.

“I’m tired, Ryukyu. Let’s go to a comfortable place…” she said in a weak voice.

Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu’s eyes filled with tears as he heavily nodded and left with Li Chou. While retreating, he turned around and looked at the pursuers behind him, etching each and every one of their faces into his memory.

Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu found a small town in a remote place and circulated his energy to heal Li Chou. Nothing helped, however, since she had used all of her blood essence. She had also received a fatal injury, which meant that she was on the precipice of losing her life.

When Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu used up all the medicines in his possession, he looked at the weak Li Chou, then turned around and left to purchase more elixirs at the fastest speed.

After he left, Li Chou opened her eyes, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her lips. She then forcefully stood up and pulled out a furnace from her spatial ring and an incomplete sword.

She arranged a few spirit stones in a spell formation, and a flame slowly rose up in the furnace. Inside it, Li Chou placed the heavy sword, which was the heavenly sword she had been forging for Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu. Once he attained the emperor realm, he would be the number one person in his realm.

But before she could finish it, many things had happened.

Li Chou clearly knew the terrible state of her body, so she intended to give Ryukyu a farewell gift.

“Flame temperature insufficient…”

“The strength of materials is also insufficient…..”

Li Chou was softly murmuring to herself while carefully observing the furnace. The heavenly sword was transforming, but she was in despair because many of the materials were still in their old house, so the refining of the heavy sword was about to fail.

“I definitely cannot let it fail. This is my last treasure for Ryukyu!”

Li Chou’s gaze filled with resolution.

Suddenly, she thought of how she had been nurtured by her clan from childhood and how her body had already reached the peak of the mortal realms. Her gaze hardened as she decided something in her heart.

A letter was swiftly written, and a sparkling tear fell on it. Soon after, Li Chou entered the furnace without any hesitation, even if feeling some reluctance and sadness.

The flame in the furnace became even more vigorous then, and Li Chou’s blood and flesh slowly refined the heavy sword. After she used her own body to forge it, it began to emit a powerful presence.

Originally, it was only a mortal weapon, but because of higher level refining, it broke through to become an immortal weapon.

When Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu returned, he became very anxious when he didn’t see Li Chou’s figure. His gaze then fell upon the letter beside the furnace, and he walked over to pick it up.

‘My lord Ryukyu,

‘I know my body the best, and I’m aware that I don’t have much time left. I have refined a heavy sword which will make you the most powerful person in your realm. Originally, I wanted to personally give it to you and see your joyous expression, but fate had different plans.

‘But you mustn’t grieve because I am present in this sword. When you will hold it, it will be like a part of me will be beside you. Although I won’t be able to touch your face anymore, I will be able to join you in battle.

‘You have to promise me that before you have sufficient strength, you won’t be impulsive and go to find the enemy! Remember, I will be protecting you from heaven.

‘Li Chou.’

When Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu narrated to that point, his voice cracked. Who said that real men could not cry? Those whose hearts were broken could.

Heavenly Emperor Ryukyu named the sword after his wife and always carried it with him. It was by his side until he went to subdue the ryukyu spirit pearl. After that event, the heavy sword disappeared forever.
