Chapter 828 — Proud Steeds and Carved Chariots, Fragrance Filling the Road
The Herdsman of the Wasteland Page 3 of 3
With this cycle, his Void-turning had grown more severe; the situation was gravely against him. He had to find a safe place, avoid his foes, and wait for the next cycle to wholly turn into Void.
Li Zheng sheathed his sword, looked down at the Carefree Sword, and praised it: "Truly a fine sword.
Luo Wushuang is indeed worthy of the name Divine Blade.
If the pig-killer wants to hunt him down, he still has a step to go. " Shen Mu looked at Li Zheng's body and saw that his flesh and primal spirit had turned to Void severely as well; Lord Dragon-Raiser too was gradually turning to Void.
They went through two more cycles, and two more incidents of outsiders boarding the ship. Li Zheng's Void-turning grew ever more severe, and he could barely hold the Carefree Sword. "Shen'er, the next Void-turning is almost here.
I fear I too am about to vanish. " They sat on the ridge of the great hall.
Li Zheng watched the sun rise in the east and said, "But rest assured: even if I wholly become Void, I will stay by your side and never leave you.
" Shen Mu nodded lightly. "I know.
" "Lord Dragon-Raiser, I leave him to you — guard your liege. " Once more radiance burst forth and drowned them.
When it dispersed, only Shen Mu and Lord Dragon-Raiser remained on the ridge of the great hall.
"I know you are still beside me.
" Shen Mu rose to his feet and looked at the strange world beyond the Heavenly River. "I will certainly find a way to break it and bring you back from Void to reality!
You are still my Grandfather Li Zheng, and no one can take you from me! "
