Chapter 154.1 - Return
btw to all those who donated kofis when I was away, thank you! <3
The Tribulation stage cultivators, who had surrounded and attacked Qing Yun that year, forced their stinging eyes to look at his features clearly. They then all roared in horror, some even directly tumbling down from the mountain peak.
Its Qing Yun! Hes Qing Yun!
Yun Qing, the Sky Origin Sect disciple, is the Qing Yun, the demon who died that year!
The Su family and others who were also there all raised their heads to look at that white-clothed figure.
Benefactor Hong Yan was even more stunned in place. She only guessed that Qing Yun must have disguised himself as someone within Hidden Cloud Valley, but she never thought that it was indeed this junior who had not even reached Immortality stage.
Under the shocked and even horrified gaze of the crowd, Qing Yun landed steadily on the summit.
And the Sacred Dao Son was also sitting crossed-legged at the summit. Seeing Qing Yuns arrival, he could not control the flash of fear in his eyes.
Seeing the floating mass of light in front of the Sacred Dao Son, the corner of Qing Yuns mouth tugged up as he smiled indifferently: Long time no see.
It was precisely this sort of apathetic tone, no matter if he was killing or threatening someone, it would always be as if he was just stepping on an ant he considered an eyesore. This attitude sent chills down the Sacred Dao Sons back.
You It actually is you In the beginning, he had clearly meticulously investigated this genius disciple of the Sky Origin Sect, Yun Qing. He never expected to have not noticed the slightest hint of something wrong!

However, Qing Yun was not in the mood to speak nonsense with him and swung his sword at him immediately.
Suddenly, with a golden flash and a CLANG!, a man wearing full golden armour had actually forcibly blocked Qing Yuns sword.
Squinting his eyes, Qing Yun easily swept the sword in the golden-armoured mans hands away. Although this mans strength was great, on this earth, there was no one who could stop Qing Yun.
But the golden-armoured man seemed to have not the slightest feeling towards Qing Yuns attack, spinning around and flying over to attack again. As if his only mission was to protect the Sacred Dao Son and kill Qing Yun.
Seeing the golden-armoured mans reaction, Qing Yun already realised that this was a puppet.
In the next second, the golden-armoured puppet launched another attack against Qing Yun, this time the blow he threw was a giant palmprint. This palmprint seemed to come from the same origin as the palmprint that hovered above the Qing house that day, they were almost identical.
Seeing this, Qing Yuns pupils shrank, and he asked sternly: Who are you?
But this was only a puppet and could not answer his question.
This golden-armoured man remained silent. Just like a machine, he used up all of his strength to launch his own attack. Every move and style of his came from the Qing family and they were incredibly practised and even more perfect and fluid when compared to the images in the ancestral hall of the previous masters of the Qing family, which were of them practising their martial arts techniques before their deaths.
Who are you exactly?! Qing Yun stared dead-on into the eyes of the man that was behind a golden mask, his breathing becoming almost chaotic.
He ignored the mans attacks and broke the golden mask on the mans face with a swing of his sword.
With a bang, the golden-armoured man was thrown to the ground by his blow and the golden mask and armour on him shattered. The half-face that was revealed to be behind the mask was precisely Qing Zhan, who had been besieged and killed by the crowd that year.
On his revealed shoulder were cracks. Evidently, someone had used an extremely gruesome secret technique to piece his disintegrated body back together and crafted him into this appearance today.
Qing Zhan who was just thrown to the ground was completely unaware of this. He continued to push himself to stand up. Using that pair of emotionless eyes to stare at his child who he had desperately protected that year, he then ruthlessly launched a strike at him.
Qing Yun rigidly absorbed the strike. He had lost the strength to even dodge and could only stare unblinkingly at the dense patchwork of marks on the mans body with his bloodshot eyes.
Tao of Heaven Tao of Heaven! Qing Yun gritted out these three words from between his teeth, the billowing clouds of madness in his eyes reaching almost the limit.
At this moment, the floating mass of light in front of the Sacred Dao Son suddenly flew towards Qing Yun. In the middle of this mass of light was precisely Qing Yuns original soul.
Qing Yun! Quick, take your original soul back. It wont be too late to get revenge afterwards! Ming Fans voice rang out in Qing Yuns mind.
Qing Yun stabbed at the mass of light with his sword as it was obvious that the mass of light was a magical vessel used to imprison Qing Yuns original soul.
But just when the tip of Qing Yuns sword touched this magical vessel, a sharp pain suddenly erupted from Qing Yuns heart. Fighting against the danger of a backlash, he forcefully kept the sword in his hands and only look on helplessly as the mass of light flew back in front of the Sacred Dao Son.
Hahahah A weird laughter fell out from the Sacred Dao Sons mouth. He stood up, and as if he was controlled by something, his limbs went stiff and contorted.
Qing Yun, didnt you want to get your original soul back? Your original soul is right here, come and get it? The Tao of Heaven manipulated the Sacred Dao Son, his voice containing full malice.
What did you do? Both of Qing Yuns eyes ran red and glared unblinkingly as the Tao of Heaven.
What did I do? The Tao of Heaven raised his head and laughed, Wouldnt you know after you destroy this magical vessel and that puppet once and for all?
Facing Qing Yun, the Tao of Heaven who was clearly disadvantaged in terms of martial power was not perturbed at all. He even was very eager to see Qing Yuns expression after getting his original soul back: Qing Yun, you and I were born under the same rule: you cant kill me, nor can I kill you. But since your original soul is in my hands, you will always be in a vulnerable state. Now, do you want to take back your original soul?
Personally destroy the magical vessel that your mothers soul was refined into, then take back your original soul! The Tao of Heavens words was almost overflowing with malice. He reached out his hand to wave the mass of light over, You see, back when your mother, Ling Yan, self-detonated to save you, I collected her soul and nurtured it together with her original soul. Now that her soul is about to completely recover, are you going to kill her?
Hearing this, Qing Yun raised his head sharply, and looked at the Tao of Heaven and the magical vessel in his hands in disbelief: Impossible! She is my mother?
The Qing Hong Sword Sect master who had self-detonated to save him, was his biological mother?
this is the last chapter of the main story! I have split it into 6 parts as it is very long (11 pages of raws in my gdocs, arial font size 11). there are 5 extra chapters after this, with a different arc (and also very long chapters ;-;) so this wont be marked as completely translated yet!
as of today, I have translated half of this chapter already, will post parts 2 & 3 in a few days. hopefully I can finish the rest of this chapter by next week.
The next arc after this is a honeymoon of sorts for them, entertainment circle/business/modern genre (something Im more familiar with, hopefully that means I can tl it faster kjdfhkdfh)
