Chapter 2156 - 2141: Jian Tong's Past (Part 2)

Over three thousand years ago, the Jian Family's Heavenly Pride Girl, Jian Tong, became the brightest star in the Small World.

Many said Jian Tong had a good chance of stepping into the True God Third Heaven Realm, becoming a contemporary superpower.

Many naturally believed that, barring unexpected occurrences, Jian Tong was undoubtedly the next Family Head of the Jian Family, despite being from a collateral line.

But, an unexpected incident did occur.

The outside world learned that the Jian Family's number one genius, Jian Tong, unfortunately perished after venturing into the Ancient Forbidden Land "Fierce Luo Cave Tomb."

In an instant, people across the world felt regret for such a genius's untimely death, sympathizing with the Jian Family's loss.

At this point, Shi Feng noticed Jian Tong's expression turning more sinister and twisted, her emotions suddenly became incredibly agitated, as if she had lost control, and she roared at Shi Feng:

"The Fierce Luo Cave Tomb, such a Forbidden Land wanted my life? It was the Jian Family members, those despicable Jian Family members!

They envied my talent; they didn't want a collateral line to surpass them! So, they... ambushed me in the Fierce Luo Cave Tomb, severely injuring me! Ah! Those despicable and shameless Jian Family members!"

Jian Tong said that the one leading them back then was the contemporary Family Head of the Jian Family era, along with numerous Elders, prestigious direct lineage members, and the talented son of the current Jian Family Patriarch!

His son, at that time, was also considered a genius, stepping into the True God First Heaven at the age of seventeen.

Originally, he should have been a much-admired figure, but due to Jian Tong, his shine was completely overshadowed.

In terms of talent, in terms of battle power, he was inferior!

Although over three thousand years have passed, for Jian Tong, those scenes seem as if they just happened before her eyes.

Jian Tong still remembers herself lying gravely injured on the ground at that time, staring at the mocking faces looking down on her.

Back then, she didn't understand why, after all those years of hard cultivation, earning glory for the Jian Family with her talent, the Jian Family members would treat her this way.

At that time, she often told herself she must strive hard; someday, she would make the Jian Family the strongest force in the Small World.

But all of this turned out to be her own wishful thinking; she never considered that the Jian Family members she trusted most, those who shared the same ancestor, even those of the same bloodline, would be so ruthless to her!

Finally, they killed Jian Tong in the Fierce Luo Demon Cave, and the son of the Jian Family Patriarch, Jian Hai, didn't spare her even after her death.

All these years, repressed by Jian Tong's brilliance, his suppressed emotions finally exploded at that moment.

He used a Secret Technique, cruelly extracted Jian Tong's soul, and imbued it into a lowest-grade Mysterious Sword crafted by an Alchemy Apprentice.

He cursed Jian Tong as a bitch, utterly fused her with that discarded sword, condemned to be a mere waste forevermore.

For over three thousand years, that sword was stored in the Jian Family's Mysterious Artifact Vault, a discarded sword, akin to garbage, left entirely unattended.

But the Jian Tong within the sword, with raging grievance, endless hatred, and killing intent, with her unyielding will, never gave up!

She wants the Jian Family's direct lineage, she wants Jian Wei, Jian Hai, she wants all of those people to pay with blood!

For over three thousand years, Jian Tong, leveraging her talent and resilience, eventually discovered another path, cultivating into a demon with the fused, lowest-level discarded sword body!

She transformed into the present form.

No wonder, when Shi Feng first saw her, he couldn't discern her nature.

Neither purely a demon nor purely a ghost.

Sword Demon, Shi Feng had seen it during his time in the Imprisonment World, even his disciple Yun Yimeng's Divine Sword had cultivated into a demon.

But that demon's aura was somewhat different from Jian Tong's.

As for the ghost, as the Lord of Billion Ghosts, he naturally understands ghosts best.

A Dao Soul sealed into a low-grade Beginner Rank sword, thoroughly fused with it, becoming the Soul of Discarded Sword.

That indeed requires tremendous perseverance and willpower to cultivate into the current human-like form.

The three thousand years of hardship, the feeling of darkness without daylight, probably only Jian Tong herself knows.

After hearing her story, when Shi Feng looked at her again, the feeling was somewhat different.

Unexpected, this alluring woman, sometimes not acting seriously, had such a past.

She stepped into the True God First Heaven Peak at fifteen; had she continued to grow, she would surely have become a legend in the Small World.

Just regrettably, that legend was shattered due to envy, just because she came from a collateral line, destroyed by those Jian Family members.

Later, according to Jian Tong, the Young Lord of the Jian Family, Jian Hai, who sealed her soul into the discarded sword, was the ancestor of Jian Yu, Jian Ze, and Jian Ran!

Three thousand years have passed, and now things have changed.

But Jian Tong's vengeance won't fade with time; though those people are gone, their descendants remain.

The sins of their ancestors must be repaid by their descendants.

"I want those people dead! Let them all die! I want them to be utterly ruined!" Jian Tong said fiercely to Shi Feng.

Shi Feng couldn't recall how many times Jian Tong lost control of her emotions while recounting her past.

For a moment, Shi Feng didn't know what to say.

She, indeed, has done many favors for him.

But the Jian Family has also been kind to him.

Especially in Aotian Land, Jian Family Ancestor Jian Gu and Patriarch Jian Yu have both helped him.

If he avenged her, it would count as turning against kindness, yet not helping her...

As time passed, Shi Feng remained silent.

Yet after finishing her past story, Jian Tong also said nothing further; as time went on, her emotions stabilized gradually.

On the surface, it seemed much calmer.

After a while, she spoke again to Shi Feng, "I originally planned to team up with you and kill all those Jian Family members."

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Shi Feng's expression suddenly moved; originally planned? Hearing her words, does she not plan it now?

Then, Jian Tong spoke again, "I saw the dilemma on your face."

Upon hearing Jian Tong's words, Shi Feng nodded, admitting, "I am indeed troubled."

Jian Tong said, "Since you're troubled, I won't trouble you. I've helped you, the Jian Family members have helped you too. I understand you're a person of sentiments and justice."

"Hmm!" Shi Feng gently nodded.

When she was agitated, she seemed like a madwoman; when her emotions stabilized, especially now, she appeared like an understanding woman.

"Go, weren't you planning to annihilate all those three great forces? Kill! Go kill them all!" Jian Tong said again.
