A surge of divine power exploded through the air.
Xie Buyu looked up and saw Old Dog Gou Langtu standing before her, bone blade in hand.
His speed was like lightning.
Had this been earlier, Xie Buyu could easily have evaded with her Ancient God Realm cultivation. But after two bouts with Du Yu, her injuries prevented her qi from flowing properly.
There was almost no chance to dodge this strike.
Xie Buyu closed her eyes slowly.
Perhaps death wasn’t so unbearable.
To die alongside Ye Yu in the same place... it wouldn’t be a bad ending.
If there is a next life, we’ll speak of eternal love then.
Several breaths passed, and the imagined pain never came.
Xie Buyu opened her eyes to find that Old Dog Gou Langtu had not slain her but had instead driven his bone blade into the ground. He looked around in terror, as if he had witnessed something unspeakably horrifying.
Curious, Xie Buyu scanned her surroundings but saw nothing. She furrowed her brow and asked, “Why didn’t you strike?”
“Strike? What strike? You wanted to kill me? No—no, please don’t kill me!” Old Dog Gou Langtu’s face shifted through a thousand expressions before he dropped to his knees and begged for mercy on the spot.
Xie Buyu’s frown deepened. What was he playing at? Had he gone mad?
Pa! Old Dog Gou Langtu suddenly pressed his palms together and produced the Xuanba Sky-Devouring Axe, placing it before Xie Buyu.
“This belongs to its rightful owner,” he stammered. “I have more treasures—I can give them all to you—just please spare my life and let Ye Yu live!”
“I was so wrong... I truly was,” he babbled. “And you... you are blessed. To be with someone of Ye Yu’s caliber, a Divine Lord—how fortunate you are!”
Xie Buyu took the Xuanba Sky-Devouring Axe in hand. A familiar divine power surged through her, untangling the chaos in her qi.
At that moment she knew for certain: Old Dog Gou Langtu had truly lost his mind. Otherwise he would never have passed up the chance to kill her, nor handed over the axe. What had he seen? Why did he call Ye Yu a Divine Lord?
Without hesitation, Xie Buyu swung the Xuanba Sky-Devouring Axe in a single, decisive arc. Gou Langtu was cleaved through, his soul preserved, and she immediately employed the Soul Search Technique to pull forth his memories.
In moments, she’d absorbed them all.

No. I must find her and get the truth. Maybe she’s deceiving me.
