Chapter 449: Moon in the Water
Inside the lunar core, outside the luminous sphere, Lu Heng remained silent, his expression indifferent.
Beside her, Dragon Emperor Xiu Ya fell silent, overwhelmed by fear and unable to speak clearly.
And the Dragon Emperor dared not speak, let alone the Fanzuiqianshou inside the light sphere.
Both of them waited anxiously, anticipating Lu Heng's response, trying to fathom his thoughts, worried about why he remained silent, and pondering what he might be contemplating.
Thus, amidst this long and icy stillness, Lu Heng became lost in deep contemplation for a moment.
In the end, when Lu Heng finally regained his senses, he became aware of the fear emanating from Dragon Emperor who stood beside him.
He forced a smile on his face, his expression void of genuine mirth, and said, "I was a bit absent-minded I apologize"
Lu Heng's expression of apology was an instinctive display of courtesy.
However, his forced smile caused Dragon Emperor to shudder uncontrollably, nearly curling up into a ball. She resembled a frightened little girl, devoid of the composure she had exhibited before.
And so, the Dragon Emperor, being an outsider to the situation, is so apprehensive, let alone Fanzuiqianshou, who is already filled with anxieties within the realm of the light ball.
At the moment when Lu Heng opened his mouth and burst into laughter, Fanzuiqianshou, enclosed within the sphere of light, trembled with cold and uttered words of genuine fear.
"Heavenly Lord, have mercy! I deserve a thousand deaths! I beg for your mercy, Heavenly Lord!"
Inside the sphere, a clattering sound of chains echoed, and if not for being restrained, this terrifying supreme powerhouse would have likely been scared to his knees, begging for mercy on the spot.
The reaction resembling a startled bird clearly indicated that Lu Heng had left a significant psychological impact on him.
Lu Heng, feeling quite speechless, was experiencing a profound sense of fear and apprehension from Fanzuiqianshou within the radiant sphere. After a momentary silence, he let out a long sigh and said, "Cease your lamentations, for I shall not slay you. However, if you persist in wailing, I cannot guarantee the same."
Upon the utterance of Lu Heng, the luminous sphere within fell quiet in an instant, leaving Fanzuiqianshou with naught but silence, displaying an obedience that was unquestionably graceful.
An awe-inspiring figure, capable of shaking the heavens and earth, a presence that could undoubtedly dominate an era within the Celestial Desolation Realm. Yet before Lu Heng, he becomes docile, like a little kitten.
Such a peculiar scene made Lu Heng sigh in his heart.
How terrifying were the deeds that the former him committed, to the extent that even such a top-notch existence would be stripped of their courage and dignity
Lu Heng sighed and said, "Sister Yuanjun doesn't need you to rescue her, nor does the Time Millstone require an assault. I should have long since reversed the Time Millstone."
"Just since you crossed over realms to kill me, do you still remember, from which world you originate? And who instructed you to come and kill me?"
Lu Heng continued with his silver-tongued rhetoric.
Within the sphere of light, Fanzuiqianshou, devoid of any contemplation, promptly responded, "To Heavenly Lord, I originated from the Thunder Roar Realm in the World of Eight Desolations, initially acting not at the behest of others, but rather ensnared in the clutches of delusion."
"The World of Eight Desolations has long been plagued by the infamous reputation of the River Map and the Luo Book, hence, on the day of Heavenly Lord's enlightenment, I audaciously sought to witness the might of the River Map and the Luo Book, recklessly crossing realms to provoke Heavenly Lord, thus bringing about my current predicament."
"All of this is my own doing, I am solely to blame as the sinner"
"Enough. There is no need for words of repentance. I don't care to hear them," Lu Heng interrupted him and continued, "Get to the point of your speech. I despise wasting time Since you have already repented, I shall not give you a hard time. I will open the Heavenly Thunder Prison and release you."
"However, before you come out, I still have a question to ask you."
Lu Heng inquired, "After you come out, besides saying that you want to serve me like a dog, is there anything else that you truly desire to accomplish? After being imprisoned for thirty million years, upon obtaining your freedom, do you have any wishes you wish to fulfill?"
Lu Heng's inquiry carried a profound sense of concern.
The Dragon Emperor beside couldn't help but anxiously interject once more, saying, "Lu Heavenly Lord" free.c om
She still feared that the being within this luminous sphere would cause chaos once released, after all, judging from its aura, the entity within this sphere was truly one of the most formidable figures in the entire celestial realm.
In the present Celestial Desolation Realm, besides the enigmatic and unfathomable Wolf God, Lu Heng, there are likely only a few individuals on the stage who can contend with him.
However, Lu Heng shook his head , gesturing to the Dragon Emperor not to worry.
He gazed at the luminous orb, listening as the voice of Fanzuiqianshou resonated from within.
"Desire"
"If I must say, I actually have no desires."
"I have always been eccentric in my actions, without many relatives or friends. After thirty million years have passed, Thunder Roar Realm has also undergone tremendous changes, and apart from serving the Heavenly Lord, I seem to have no other purpose"
In the voice of Fanzuiqianshou, there resonates a profound sense of frustration and desolation.
Lu Heng nodded and said, "In that case, I will grant you freedom today and relieve you from the torment of the imminent thunder strikes."
As the words fell, Lu Heng lightly waved his sleeve, causing the enormous ball of light to burst open with a "pu" sound.
The power of calamity that erupted when the ball of light burst open transformed into dazzling and blinding lightning, surging within the lunar soil. Even a casual release of a strand of it can annihilate an entire stellar region.
However, the raging outburst of heavenly thunder didn't even cause the slightest damage to this incredibly fragile moon, but instead, entirely surged into the body of Lu Heng.
As if mud flowing into the sea, disappearing without a trace.
After the dispersion of the luminous sphere, the ancient being Fanzuiqianshou, who had been imprisoned and tormented for a grand total of three million years, finally materialized in front of Lu Heng and the Dragon Emperor.

After the dispersion of the luminous sphere, the ancient being Fanzuiqianshou, who had been imprisoned and tormented for a grand total of thirty million years, finally materialized in front of Lu Heng and the Dragon Emperor.
Even though subjected to such an agonizing stretch of time, it appears that even dignity and fortitude have been eroded, yet the aura emanating from this supreme being remains terrifying.
His proud and independent figure exudes an aura that is truly awe-inspiring.
Even though he begged for mercy from Lu Heng, the aura of strength surrounding him remained unaffected. Obviously, in his eyes, pleading for mercy from Lu Heng was not something to be ashamed of. Therefore, not even his innermost principles were affected, as he maintained the demeanor and majesty befitting an ultimate powerhouse.
The Dragon Emperor, beholding the Fanzuiqianshou before her, couldn't help but widen his gaze and reveal an expression of incredulity.
Lu Heng, on the other hand, remained indifferent to this, as if he had already noticed it.
He hinged his hand towards Fanzuiqianshou, bidding farewell.
And as Lu Heng gracefully bid farewell, the silhouette of Fanzuiqianshou had already vanished from the depths of the lunar core.
The form and soul of this ultimate powerhouse vanished without a trace, leaving behind only a small cauldron that shimmered with a rich essence of life.
This scene left the Dragon Emperor astonished and bewildered, murmuring, "This".
She turned her gaze towards Lu Heng, unable to accept such a situation.
Why did Fanzuiqianshou disappear into thin air right after being released?
Lu Heng sighed and said, "Fanzuiqianshou claims that he has been tormented by thunder and fire for an extended period, to the point where he has even forgotten the sensation of pain However, under the divine thunder, even the soul can shatter. How can one simply disregard the passage of time?"
"His soul and physical form, in fact, had long been eroded by heavenly thunder amidst the passage of countless years."
"What remained in the end was nothing more than a breath that could not be swallowed"
"The obsession he left behind, like a moon in water, a flower in a mirror, although it may endure for a long time, with a gentle touch, it quietly shatters."
