Chapter 2068: 2068: Ancestor of the Divine Silkworm Clan

The battle between Zhao Tianyi and the Divine Silkworm can be considered a defeat for the Divine Silkworm and a victory for Zhao Tianyi. Despite the Divine Silkworm’s great talent, it was no match for Zhao Tianyi! However, Zhao Tianyi was unwilling to severely injure the Divine Silkworm, because after all, he was the Divine Silkworm Princess’s brother. If he truly killed the Divine Silkworm, how could he continue to get along with the Divine Silkworm Princess? Both emotionally and rationally, he couldn’t do such a thing!

It was precisely because of Zhao Tianyi’s hesitation that the Divine Silkworm was able to launch a counterattack, almost piercing Zhao Tianyi’s chest!

The Divine Silkworm Princess cried, her tears falling uncontrollably. One was her brother, the other was the man she loved the most. Now, they were fighting for their lives, and she suffered the most. As she watched the Divine Silkworm, taking advantage of Zhao Tianyi’s serious injury, attacking Zhao Tianyi again, she shouted loudly not to.

"Brother, no matter what, I want to be with him!" the Divine Silkworm Princess said with unwavering determination in her eyes.

"You... sister, have you really become a demon? Do you know the consequences of being together? Do you realize that even if you both leave today, there will be no place for you among the Ancient Alien Race or the Human Clan in the future!" the Divine Silkworm said in utter fury.

"I still want to be with him!" the Divine Silkworm Princess said resolutely.

"You..." For a moment, the Divine Silkworm was speechless, unsure of what to say!

In reality, how could the Divine Silkworm Princess and Zhao Tianyi not understand? Their union would become a target of public criticism, and both the Ancient Alien Race and the Human Clan would despise or even hunt them. The conflict between these two major species was unending.

"We will be together. If this world cannot tolerate us, we will find a place to belong. If someone insists on bringing us harm, I will not stand by idly, but fight back!" Zhao Tianyi said as he tightly gripped the longsword in his hand.

"Hmph, you are truly arrogant!" the Divine Silkworm sneered coldly.

"I am not arrogant. I just want to live a life as immortal lovers with Can’er. We will not interfere with anyone, and hope that no one interferes with us, that’s all!" Zhao Tianyi shook his head and said.

"Unfortunately, no one will fulfill your wish, not even me..." the Divine Silkworm approached Zhao Tianyi step by step, the divine power emanating from the halberd in his hand.

Zhao Tianyi looked at the Divine Silkworm seriously and said, "Step aside, I want to take Can’er away. I don’t want to kill you, sincerely, I don’t!"

"Is that so? You are already defeated by me, yet you don’t want to kill me? Hahaha, that’s truly ridiculous!" the Divine Silkworm laughed disdainfully.

Buzz!

Suddenly, as the Divine Silkworm laughed, a surge of power erupted from Zhao Tianyi’s entire body, changing the aura of his entire being, and startling the Divine Silkworm, who frowned and said, "You... your power..."

"This is my true combat strength. You are strong, but slightly weaker than me. That’s the fact. With diligent cultivation, you might surpass me!" Zhao Tianyi said, seriously looking at the Divine Silkworm.

"You... I don’t believe it. I don’t believe it. Stop boasting in front of me, let’s fight!" Naturally, the Divine Silkworm wasn’t convinced; he refused to believe he was weaker. Ever since he lost to Zhao Tianyi a year ago, he had been practicing day and night, feeling significantly stronger than a year earlier. However, the aura and power Zhao Tianyi was now releasing clearly surpassed his. Was it because Zhao Tianyi, from the beginning, hadn’t shown his full strength?

As the Divine Silkworm thought he had defeated Zhao Tianyi, the aura of power from Zhao Tianyi changed suddenly, and strong energy surged out, instantly suppressing the Divine Silkworm, causing him a feeling of shock and fear, yet simultaneously infuriating him, unable to believe he was weaker than Zhao Tianyi by such a margin!

Boom!

The Divine Silkworm directed his halberd towards Zhao Tianyi, but Zhao Tianyi stood still, unmoving, allowing the divine power of the halberd to approach him. As it reached him, he extended his left hand and grasped the divine power of the halberd, transforming it into sword light, and immediately counterattacked the Divine Silkworm.

Poof!

Blood splattered, and the Divine Silkworm’s left arm was severed, leaving him extremely shocked, staring at the halberd in his hand. He felt utterly defeated. Could he truly not be able to overcome Zhao Tianyi?

"You... kill me then!" the Divine Silkworm said coldly, looking at Zhao Tianyi.

"Tianyi, don’t kill my brother!" the Divine Silkworm Princess said with tears flowing down her face.

Zhao Tianyi glanced at the Divine Silkworm Princess and with his left hand, sent the Divine Silkworm flying away with a single palm strike. He didn’t kill the Divine Silkworm, he just taught him a lesson.

After sending the Divine Silkworm flying with one palm, Zhao Tianyi took a step towards the Divine Silkworm Princess. At this moment, tears streamed down the Princess’s face, yet she wore a smile because she wanted to be with Zhao Tianyi. She loved him, and she was fully aware that Zhao Tianyi’s willingness to bleed in the Divine Silkworm Clan’s territory proved his love for her!

Crash!

The Divine Silkworm Princess was entirely restrained by a Rune, not only sealing her Martial Arts True Qi, but also constantly tormenting her. When Zhao Tianyi touched these Runes, the anger in his heart and the murderous intent in his eyes burst forth suddenly, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Can’er, is this your Divine Silkworm Clan? Whatever happens, you are still the Princess of the Divine Silkworm Clan, a member among them, and this is how they treat you?"

"Tianyi, don’t blame them; being with you this time will probably cause great trouble to the Divine Silkworm Clan, as other Species may join forces against them!" the Divine Silkworm Princess said guiltily.

"Can’er, let’s go, let’s leave here. Everything else has nothing to do with us. Let’s leave them to fight it out; we won’t participate!" Zhao Tianyi said passionately.

"Mhm!" the Divine Silkworm Princess nodded heavily.

Zhao Tianyi reached out and grabbed the Runes restraining the Divine Silkworm Princess. As he touched these Runes, he frowned slightly, and with a shake of his right hand, a Rune formed from Sword Qi appeared, breaking the Runes on the Princess little by little, eliminating their imprisonment!

"Tianyi!"

"Can’er!"

The Divine Silkworm Princess and Zhao Tianyi couldn’t help but embrace each other. Their reunion was truly difficult; for them, the time they could be together was really limited. This time they decided to fly far away together, not knowing what they would experience. The Ancient Alien Race and the Human Clan both couldn’t tolerate them, their fate unknown, but they understood it clearly!

"You two are determined to be together without truly considering the consequences?" An elder’s voice sounded, very indifferent, yet it gave Zhao Tianyi and the Divine Silkworm Princess a shock!

Only to see an elder with white hair down to his waist standing not far away, calmly watching the Princess and Zhao Tianyi. In his eyes, there was no murderous intent, but a kind of resoluteness, as if he wouldn’t let them leave no matter what!

"Ancestor, Can’er greets the Ancestor!" the Divine Silkworm Princess respectfully saluted and called out.

"You are the Ancestor of the Divine Silkworm Clan? Senior... I want to be with Can’er, no matter how perilous!" Zhao Tianyi stated with respect and determination.

"Even if it takes your life?" the Ancestor of the Divine Silkworm Clan asked coldly.

"I don’t care, as long as I can be with Can’er!" Zhao Tianyi said without hesitation.

The Ancestor of the Divine Silkworm Clan frowned, and the Divine Silkworm Princess couldn’t help but squeeze Zhao Tianyi’s hand. They were both striving for a chance to retire and leave here together, avoiding all the conflicts in the Martial Arts World, irrespective of their involvement!

However, they also knew that the appearance of the Ancestor of the Divine Silkworm Clan was a fact, one of the top powerhouses in the Martial Arts World at that time. Even though Zhao Tianyi was talented, with the Divine Silkworm Princess’s power added, they might not be a match for this Ancestor — a fact they both knew well!

"Can’er, you are the Princess of our Divine Silkworm Clan, carrying mysterious Bloodline Power. You might be able to recreate the prestige from ancient ancestors. Are you really willing to forsake this?" the Ancestor of the Divine Silkworm Clan asked, looking at the Princess.

The Divine Silkworm Princess paused, then her gaze became very firm, kneeling before the Ancestor, she said, "Ancestor above, Can’er is ashamed towards the clan, but my heart is no longer within it. My goal is no longer the Martial Arts Peak; I just want an ordinary life, a quiet life, with the one I love, until death!"

"Can’er, from ancient times the Ancient Alien Race and the Human Clan have always been irreconcilable. Now as the Human Clan gradually grows stronger, having a place in the Martial Arts World, it has aroused strong dissatisfaction from the Ancient Alien Race and Demon Clan, they might band together and attack us. If such trouble arises, it will be because of you two, have you thought about that? At that time, our Divine Silkworm Clan will also suffer because of it!" the Ancestor of the Divine Silkworm Clan said with some heartache.

"Ancestor, I understand all this, but the conflicts and calamities between Species are not caused by just me; there’s no way we can stir up a storm. These grievances have existed since the birth of the Ancient Alien Race and Human Clan!" the Divine Silkworm Princess stated seriously.

The Ancestor of the Divine Silkworm Clan glanced at the Princess, then at Zhao Tianyi, shaking his head he said, "You are forcing me to act, and I don’t want to kill you..." (To be continued.
