Following a sudden and eerie silence, Yu Yifeng said, "Junior Brother Xiao, you can be frank. There are many seniors present today..."
Xiao Chen interrupted him with a sneer. "Your so-called Orthodox Path is no more than just a group of people shielding each other. I have nothing to say! Kill me if you want to! I'll consider it is breaking even if I kill even one, and profiting if I kill two or three!"
The purple-robed Warden's eyes turned cold. "He's so deeply entrenched in the Ways of the Devil that persuasion is useless! Let's join hands and capture him!" He reinstated his True Energy as he spoke. He held no grudge against Xiao Chen. However, he had seen how robust Xiao Chen was. If Xiao Chen were to turn to the Devil's sects and possessed strength from both sides, the consequences would be unimaginable. Therefore, Xiao Chen must be eliminated!
Suddenly, a peal of mocking laughter drifted to everyone's ears. "Let me speak since he won't!"
Tianyuan City was at its liveliest and yet complete silence enveloped the Jade Terrace Mountain. Many had left the mountain for the city. Inside the Immortal's Prison on a summit of a rear mountain, an incessant stern voice demanded, "Speak, you slut! Where is Xiao Chen?!" In the stone chamber that imprisoned Xiao Chen, Ling Fei pressed Li Muxue's neck up against the wall. Blood gushed from her mouth like a leaking faucet, staining her lapels. "Speak! Where is Xiao Chen?!" Ling Fei threw another punch at her stomach, causing her to cough up another mouthful of blood. He sneered. "Be prepared for a gruesome death." "Speak! Where did that bastard go?!" Ling Fei once again punched her in the stomach. Her aura was thin, and her face was a frightening shade of white. Blood flowed out of her mouth without an end. The crescent white jade resting on her chest was flickering incessantly, but hidden under her clothes, it escaped Ling Fei's notice.
The rest were astounded to see Xiao Chen's cruel expression. They knew then that death would be out of Ling Fei's reach today. Several Nirvana Realm cultivators charged at Xiao Chen upon seeing this, not to save Ling Fei but to put up an act in front of the Orthodox community. With a loud howl, Guifeng summoned his Soul power to reinforce the Barrier. The Nirvana Realm cultivators might be durable, but they wouldn't be able to break through his Devil Devourment Barrier so soon. Xiao Chen spun around and peered indifferently at Ling Fei. Though encased in a layer of ice, Ling Fei could see everything outside. His eyes were filled with fear. He had no idea how Xiao Chen planned on torturing him. His sole desire now was death! He wanted to die and enter the Wheel of Reincarnation! "Thump!" Xiao Chen shattered the ice with a palm attack. Ling Fei immediately tried to commit deliverance as soon as he escaped his bind, wanting to dra
The masses looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young woman in red gliding through the air on floating leaves steps. The grim-faced woman had a red flower print between her eyebrows. She landed firmly next to Xiao Chen and an ice-cold, ruthless aura swiftly filled the air, sending a chill down everyone's hearts. Xiao Chen shivered before saying solemnly, 'Xin'er, why are you here..." Huangfu Xin'er was as frosty as ever as she said, "Back on the Thousand Summits Mountain, you saved my life. Today, I'll return the favor. Neither of us will owe each other anything from here on!" "KILL!" No one knew who sounded the battle cry, but a group of eight or so stormed Xiao Chen without a second thought. Huangfu Xin'er waved her hand, and five red radiance flashed. Blood splashed everywhere with a jeering sound as she cut the group into pieces, crushing their internal organs and spilling them all over the ground. It was a staggering sight.
Xiao Chen stood tall against the wind, peering at every Orthodox cultivator present. Feeling his gaze full of hatred, the crowd couldn't help taking several steps in retreat. They dared not approach him, even knowing that he didn't have much power left. "You, and you, and you as well, all of you!" Xiao Chen pointed to every cultivator near him. "Have I ever offended any of you? Have I ever hurt your wife and children? Did I somehow hinder you that you're all trying to kill me..." In the silence, all everyone could hear was the whistling of the wind. Master Xuanji and Monk Xu Gu muttered a constant string of Buddhist scriptures with their palms pressed together. To them, this scene was a repetition of the scene portrayed in the historical records before the millennium. "Why are we trying to kill you?" a white-bearded old man retorted self-righteously. "Do you know how many people you've killed today?!" Xiao Chen guffawed with hi
A wave of tremendous Immortal energy swept the public square, suppressing the Devil Qi inside it. Some disciples, tainted by Xiao Chen's Devil Qi, also began to recover. Many in the crowd started yelling, "First Elder Chanyu! First Elder Chanyu is here!" With a flick of his sleeves, Chanyu Zheng stared at Xiao Chen with the intensity of a bolt of lightning. "So, you're Xiao Chen?" Xiao Chen's expression didn't change, remaining as cold and fearless as before. "Precisely." Yu Yifeng's heart sank and turned even paler in the face. Xiao Chen could have left earlier, but not anymore now that he was facing Chanyu Zheng, an Apotheosis Realm cultivator. He understood Xiao Chen very well. Even if his Junior Brother fell to the dark side today, he would never harm the living in the future. Yet, everyone still wanted his life... On the other end, Xiaoyue had her hand clasped over her horsetail whisk as her cyan robe fluttered in the wind
Xiao Chen's mouth curved to form a sneer. He continued gathering the vital force of the world. Chanyu Zheng had a bad omen and immediately yelled, "Stop him!" He didn't have the luxury of worrying about the surging of the force above. He leaped, transformed into a drawn-out light, and charged at Xiao Chen. However, the twin forces of Immortals and Devils mercilessly sent him crashing to the ground. No flying swords or magic treasures could approach Xiao Chen. Even the strongest Immortal's Sword would turn into scrap iron once it got close to him. Suddenly, a loud explosion shattered the air. The sky finally rained down bolts of dazzling lightning on Xiao Chen. "Heavenly Punishment!" many cried out in surprise. Chanyu Zheng stared at the lightning rapidly falling from the sky as if he finally found hope at the end of the tunnel. However, when the bolts of lightning were ten feet away from the top of Xiao Chen's head, they were sucked into a s
In the distance, everyone had entered the state of preparation for war, and many people had rushed to other cities to support. On the side of the square, Yu Linglong looked at the enemies who were slowly closing in from all directions. She stomped and snarled, "No! Rest assured! Handsome brother, I will not let them kill you..." After that, it was another chaotic fight. Xiao Chen, once again felt that the world was spinning and his stomach turned. Chanyu Zheng and Guyang Perfected Immortal looked at each other and thought, "The strength of this demonic woman is big, but the mind is still immature and only knows brute force. We shall wait for an opportunity for a critical hit." Then they moved to one side while the other hundreds of sects carried out a wheel siege. "Ah! Shoo! Shoo! You, bad guys, go away!" Yu Linglong shouted while she fought back. It was a sky full of golden fist shadows. Those who were hit had their bones broken and flew out vomiting blo
On the ground, countless cultivators of the sects encircled Yu Linglong, and at this moment, Yu Linglong's body had been hit more than ten times. She lunged at Xiao Chen's body and saw Xiao Chen's face pale and white, gradually losing his breathing, and his heartbeat slowly stopped. She let out a miserable scream: "No—" Bloodied Mad Swordsman looked down and shouted, "Idiot! He is already dead! Leave now! Go Feng You that bastard!" Yu Linglong ignored him and slowly stood up. At this moment, her eyes were red, and red radiances also surrounded her body. The look on her face was terrifying, and she seemed like a different person. She bellowed, "You killed —Brother Chen... You're all going to die! Die!" As the last word, "Die" was spoke, a scary force broke out from the center, and cultivators of the nearby sects were shaken and flew out as they spewed out blood. The four wardens, as well as Chanyu Zheng, were also stunned by this force.
