Chapter 39: Tian Shen's Death
Tomb of the Immortal Emperor, Inheritance trial.
Seeing the corpse in her arms, Tian Yanyu started to cry. Hours passed, but she only cried with sadness, despair, and self-hatred.
Once in a while, she caressed the beautiful face of the corpse in her arms and even kissed his forehead, which was full of blood.
"Brother, Yanyu has disappointed you." Her cry was hiding an indescribable sadness.
Anyway, this is normal. She lost the most important person in her life in front of her eyes, but due to her disability, she could only watch her brother's death.
"Hahaha, Tian Yanyu, there's no point in crying. If you had listened to us and joined us with your brother, maybe your brother would be alive now." Suddenly, a sound of laughter echoed throughout the barren land.
Upon hearing this female voice, Tian Yanyu's expression, which was full of sadness, turned into hatred and murderous intent.
"Brother, rest in peace. Yanyu will take revenge for you." She gently placed her brother's body on the ground and got up.
A huge amount of killing intent emanated from her and directly broke through the eternal void, causing time to bend.
The woman who was as if hidden in the mist of time licked her lips after seeing Tian Yanyu's killing intent and then attacked Tian Yanyu.
Tian Yanyu's aura soared, and she took out her thin white sword and attacked at the same time.
Each of their attacks caused the collapse of countless planets and galaxies, and even countless living beings were killed without knowing why and how in the process of this fight.
Tian Yanyu's sword blows became even more devastating as time went by, and it was clear that she was combining the sword intent and killing intent.
That young woman who was hidden in the mist of time was not bad either, and the destructiveness of her attacks was even more terrifying than Tian Yanyu's.
One hit, and the sun collapsed directly, and the world lost its light.
The blow backfired, and both retreated thousands of miles.
Tian Yanyu looked at her brother's corpse, which was still intact, and sighed; she was using a treasure to protect his dead body.
"If there is an afterlife, I will protect you," Tian Yanyu took another look at her brother's body, which was galaxies away from her.
Then suddenly, the energy in her body began to increase and condense in one section.
"Are you crazy? Do you want to kill yourself?" The woman looked like she didn't expect Tian Yanyu to be really that crazy and said with a tone of fear.
"Life without my brother is useless, but before that, I will kill you," Tian Yanyu said and was ready to explode herself.
In principle, these two people may be on the same level, but the explosion of existences on their level will cause the collapse of 1/3 of the heavenly worlds.
"Stupid," but before she could succeed, a huge hand appeared above space-time and slapped her directly, breaking her entire energy source and even her soul and body.
It was not known whether it was fate or coincidence, but her broken body was thrown towards her brother's body.
With the last sign of consciousness, Tian Yanyu pulled Tian Shen's body into her arms.
"What a fool," the woman said with a little contempt after seeing this drama, and then she waved her hand, and the lifeless bodies of these two people were directly pulverized.
Although Tian Yanyu seemed to be dead, nothing was over.
---
"Hey, Yanyu, are you ok? Did you become goofy?" A handsome young man standing on the platform of the airship said with a smile to the beautiful woman in front of him.
"Brother?" Tian Yanyu looked at Tian Shen with shock and bright eyes, as if seeing a dead man come back to life.
Without wasting time, she threw herself into her brother's arms and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist.
"Hey, calm down, okay? Is something wrong?" Tian Shen became a little shocked to see that his sister suddenly hugged him.
"No, everything is fine. I just want to hug you a little, okay?" Tian Yanyu said with a smile, tears dripping from the corner of her eyes.
She didn't know how her brother, who was a corpse in her arms, suddenly came to life, or even how she came back to life too.
But she didn't care; seeing her brother around and the current situation, she knew that she had returned to the time before her brother's death, and he would protect her brother this time.
"Brother, let's go back," after a few minutes of being in each other's arms, Tian Yanyu got out of Tian Shen's arms and said in a very serious tone.
"Back? We're almost near the alien battlefield," Tian Shen couldn't understand his sister's words.
"I know, but we can come later, right? Let's go back now, please," Tian Yanyu said in a tone that didn't hide her begging.
"But-" Tian Shen wanted to refuse, but seeing her face, he finally accepted.
"Okay, if this is what Yanyu wants," Tian Shen stroked her head a little and said with a smile.
"Brother is very good!" Tian Yanyu said seeing that she could finally protect her brother.
"Go back? Unfortunately, you will die today here," Suddenly, a beautiful female voice echoed throughout the sky.
The void split, and an army led by a beautiful woman came out of the void.
Seeing the beautiful woman who came out of the void, Tian Yanyu's eyes completely lost their softness and became cold, and even murderous intent began to radiate from her body.
"Brother, you must leave now," Tian Yanyu said to Tian Shen seriously.
She didn't know why these people came now; they should have arrived when they left the endless void, but it seemed like they had come earlier.
This was one of the reasons why she did not hurry after waking up in the past and hugged her brother first.
"Okay, we can go now," Tian Shen was ready to run away with his sister after he saw the destruction auras standing in the sky.
"Can't, you have to go without me." How could Tian Yanyu ignore such an opportunity for revenge?
"Yanyu, now is not the time to be stubborn. The woman standing in the sky gives me a terrifying sense of danger. The best thing to do now is to use the ancestral treasure and run away," Tian Shen said seriously.
He thought that his sister's heroic side was activated at this moment.
"Brother, I don't want to be heroic; I just have to finish something. I'll come to you when it's done," Tian Yanyu said in a soft and sweet tone.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes," Tian Yanyu nodded seriously.
Tian Shen could only sigh and then listened to his sister and left.
"What a coward," the beautiful woman standing in the sky said with contempt.
"Shut up." Tian Yanyu no longer concealed her murderous intent and hatred and attacked directly; she didn't want to let any variables appear.
With one stroke of her sword, she wiped out half of the dark creatures.
With the second blow, the other half of the army got destroyed too.
These two terrifying blows belong to a technique that she created herself.
Three strokes of the sword that destroy the heavens.
"not bad. Why don't you join us?" The beautiful woman did not have the slightest emotional fluctuation when she saw the death of the army that came with her, and only saw Tian Yanyu's strength, which is not weaker than herself. She said ecstatically.
"In your dreams," Tian Yanyu said with hatred and coldness, then attacked the beautiful woman.
"Then let me convince you with absolute power." The beautiful woman just snorted, and then a ball of light appeared in her hand. Without hesitation, she threw the ball of light at Tian Yanyu.
Tian Yanyu, who was familiar with this attack, did not let the ball hit her and dodged; instead, the ball of light hit the airship and turned it completely into dust particles.
Tian Yanyu didn't care and continued her attacks on the beautiful woman.
The beautiful woman also started to resist and answered Tian Yanyu's sword blows with her fists.
However, it seemed that Tian Yanyu was somewhat familiar with her fighting style and could find the weak points of her attacks from time to time.
"I really can't beat her in a battle?" This gave her a slight edge, but unfortunately, it wasn't enough to win.
It can be said that their strength was completely equal, and the beautiful woman even had an advantage due to her origin, but this advantage was lost due to Tian Yanyu's superiority and made them completely equal.
"Damn it! Come out." The beautiful woman was completely angry and decided to put aside the shame.
Tian Yanyu felt danger for some reason, but it was too late, and the wave of the attack hit her, shattering her hand's bone.
"Damn, I forgot about these bastards," she backed up a few hundred miles and looked at the dark figures that came out of the void.
In the previous life, it was Tian Shen who confronted these people, and she had completely forgotten their existence.
"Well, little girl, I'll give you one more chance, surrender or die," the beautiful woman said as she licked her lips seductively.
"I am willing to die to surrender to you," Tian Yanyu, who felt a terrible pain in her left hand, said with eyes full of murderous intent.
"As you wish," the beautiful woman pointed to the other three, and all three of them took out their spears, and the four attacked Tian Yanyu with their most powerful technique.
"So this is the end? Well, at least I saved my brother," Tian Yanyu knew that she could no longer win in her current state.
She closed her eyes and was ready to die, but the death she was waiting for did not come.
She opened her eyes, but when she saw the scene in front of her, her eyes turned completely red, and she even fell on the ground due to discomfort and shock.
"No, no, no, brother," Tian Yanyu panicked with endless sadness after she saw her brother who stopped the attack of these four people with his life.
"Well, this hurts a bit," Tian Shen, whose body was pierced by the impact of the three spears, knelt in front of Tian Yanyu and said with a laughing tone.
"Brother, didn't I tell you to run away? Why are you here?" Blood began to drip from Tian Yanyu's eyes, and her heart began to ache.
Her sadness could not be described in words.
"How can I leave my sister alone in a place like this?" Tian Shen said with a smile on his face and brushed away the strand of hair that fell on his sister's face with his hand.
Tian Yanyu didn't say anything and just continued to cry.
Two lives, and in both, she failed to protect her brother.
Her mentality was almost broken and even collapsing.
"Yanyu, some things cannot be changed," Tian Shen coughed up some blood and said.
"Such a sentence is stupid; if it can't be changed, then destroy fate," Tian Shen continued.
"But don't forget one thing, in the endless timelines, in the roads of samsara and the six paths of reincarnation."
"I will always be by your side, and I will be the person who will protect you for eternity and beyond the known and the unknown," Tian Shen said to Tian Yanyu with a tone full of love and affection before the last flame of his life got extinguished.
