Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Tian Ran’s Emotional Hurdle

“Brother Mu Yu… Sword Shadow Dust Gale… Dad…” murmured Tian Ran, wiping Mu Yu’s blood that splattered on her face.

Tian Ran felt a loud thump in her chest as she watched Mu Yu go flying. Like a dam breaking under pressure, memories surged into her mind. As Jiang Shanqiu summoned Dangerous Soul Mirror again to seal Mu Yu’s fate, Tian Ran flitted over to catch Mu Yu.

“You know how to resolve your emotional shackles now?” Mu Yu forced a smile from Tian Ran’s arms.

As her tears pelted down on Mu Yu’s face, Tian Ran sobbed, “Brother Mu Yu” and pulled him in tight.

“Sorry, I should’ve come for you sooner.”

“Tian Ran, what are you doing? Kill him now to ascend to Ascension Realm!” commanded Yan Qingyun.

Tian Ran released Mu Yu to face Yan Qingyun and drew Empyrean Revelation. “You blackmailed me with my mother to force me into learning Secular World Emotion Severing Technique! I’ve regained my memories now, though. You wanted to make me an emotionless puppet!”

“We did it for your sake. You must learn it to succeed the sect! Do you want to make the same blunder your mother did? Kill him to ascend already!”

“Do you have any clue what I must do to remove my emotional shackles?”

“You just have to kill him!”

“Wrong. I mustn’t kill him but find him and hear him say the one thing I want to hear him tell me.” Tian Ran turned back to Mu Yu and asked, “Do you like me?”

Mu Yu beamed. “I do. I should’ve told you sooner that I’ve always liked you.”

Tian Ran shut her eyes, allowing her qi to circulate freely, while a red lotus manifested behind her, billowing her clothes.

Although it had always been a goal for them to shuttle Tian Ran into Ascension Realm, Yan Qingyun could not find the desire to celebrate due to the path Tian Ran took to ascend. “I must take her back and make her learn Red Lotus Emotion Severing Technique once she ascends!”

“We should apprehend Mu Yu while she’s occupied ascending,” recommended Xiang Guanhe, charging in with Jiang Shanqiu.

Tian Ran hurled a golden lotus to Mu Yu, shielding him from any attacks.

“Tian Ran, what is the meaning of this?” raged Yan Qingyun.

“Brother Mu Yu, I’m happy, very happy to see you again,” expressed Tian Ran, transfusing spiritual energy from herself to Mu Yu to heal him. She caressed his face with her free hand, the two behaving as though they were in their own world.

Feeling Tian Ran’s spiritual energy suppress his bloodlust energy, Mu Yu swore, “If we can escape Pure Peace City, I swear to avenge you. I can’t let Secular World Sect ruin you after they ruined your mother.”

“You will escape,” assured Tian Ran, smiling as two silver droplets streaked down her cheeks. “Because I’ll help you escape.”

“Wait, what you are doing?!”

“Sorry, Brother Mu Yu. This is the only way I can get you out of here.”

“Don’t do it, Sister Tian Ran!” cried Xiaoshuai.

“Don’t do it! Let’s think of something else!” Mu Yu urged, watching Tian Ran douse herself in so much golden energy – her life force – to generate enough power to overpower Third Heaven Palace’s duo.

“Brother Mu Yu, I drew you here, so I have a responsibility to help you escape. I know you have a lot of things to accomplish. Please save my parents; they deserve to be together.”

“Don’t do it! Don’t! Stop!” Mu Yu hastily summoned bloodlust energy to drag his damaged body.

“I’m more than satisfied to have seen you one last time.” Tian Ran pecked Mu Yu on the lips and suppressed his bloodlust energy with her pure life force. She slid her hand down to where his heart was. “I won’t die. I’ll always be right here.”

Tian Ran went up in golden flames as she continued churning out vitality.

Yan Qingyun raced over to stop Tian Ran, knowing Tian Ran would perish if she forced her cultivation all the way to Ascension Realm Ninth Layer. Tian Ran whacked Yan Qingyun back, nonetheless. Xiang Heguan and Jiang Shanqiu could not stop Tian Ran for vitality automatically countered soul energy.

“I want to protect you, Brother Mu Yu.” Tian Ran swivelled around to Mu Yu with a blooming smile. “Fire Lotus Brilliant Moon!”
