Chapter 960: Chapter 958: Rarely Draws Her Sword

The Human Emperor, the Void Body, both had to protect his Dao; not only that, there was someone inside that black hole.

That voice came out, and everyone shuddered.

It was a woman’s voice, but what she said was so horrifying—kill them?

Holy shit!

Do you have to be this hardcore?

How many people did you bring?

Wen Qingshan, who was walking in front, stumbled, cursing in his heart: "Why the hell aren’t you making a move?"

Bai Yisheng, pale as a sheet, couldn’t help but laugh. He recognized it was Guang Xiaoyu’s voice. They hadn’t seen each other for a long time; he had no idea how this girl had been.

Very soon...

Guang Xiaoyu slowly walked out.

She was different from others—no lofty, noble aura, no peerless, world-toppling beauty, just a delicate, pretty face and a figure that wasn’t particularly tall.

But overall she looked fine, slim and graceful, fresh and refined.

On her left side stood another woman, Yue Wuxia, beauty that toppled all under the heavens, a lithe, curvy figure, and when she smiled, even heaven and earth seemed to lose their color.

Yue Wuxia’s beauty was that of all the flowers of the mortal world blooming at once—simple, vivid, refreshing, making people can’t help but look a few more times.

On the right side was the Fairy.

Completely different from the other two, she was on the cold, glamorous side, like a bright moon hanging at the edge of the sky—beautiful, yet so icy that people didn’t dare get close.

Behind them stood Zhang Ziyu, white robes dustless, incomparably ethereal, and an Ancient Divine Body, Chen Shixian, whose beauty and radiance were equally impossible to conceal.

When this lineup walked out, everyone was shaken. Wuji Sect—and also the third-in-command of the Qingfeng line, Guang Xiaoyu. The one who spoke just now must have been her, right?

The cultivators were stunned.

Geniuses of the Wuji Sect had traversed the Heaven Emperor Dharma Principle to come to this Ancient City to protect the Dao for one person.

They were way too bold.

They had no protection at all!

What if the Alliance deployed a few more peerless experts—or if a Heaven Emperor stepped out?

But no matter what, people could only admire their courage, and at the same time were even more shaken by the one undergoing Tao Verification. Just who was it?

"In the end, we still came to this Ancient City." the Fairy murmured softly.

Hahaha!

Yue Wuxia laughed loudly: "Big Brother is here! Little Brother, just focus on Tao Verification. With Big Brother around, no one can get near you."

The Sword Immortal chuckled slyly and stayed quiet. In front of Big Brother he’d better keep a low profile, otherwise he’d get smacked later.

Chen Shixian, at the side, raised her head, her bright eyes fixed on Chen Pingping who was verifying the Dao. Her heart was surging, unable to calm down for a long time. To verify the Dao in a chaotic age—should she call him stupid? Or what should she call him?

She knew very well what this meant.

Chen Pingping was going to sacrifice himself, draw down the Heavenly Dao’s karma, let Karma Fire burn him from within, and if possible, flip this Ancient City over in passing, wiping out the Alliance, this powerful enemy.

His true goal was to clear the path for Wen Yuqing, sweeping everything before her so she could safely reach the Heavens.

Unfortunately, Chen Pingping had no idea that on her way back, Wen Yuqing had been blocked by a God and, having no choice, summoned the imperial soldiers and used the power of faith to verify the Dao.

She too wanted to carve out a path for Chen Pingping.

It was very moving.

At this moment, only now did the whole Wuji Sect understand just how deep this master-disciple bond really was.

Chen Shixian asked herself and knew she couldn’t do it.

"Senior Brother Bai, long time no see." Guang Xiaoyu looked at Bai Yisheng. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Junior Sister has grown much stronger."

"So have you, Senior Brother." Guang Xiaoyu nodded. "You’ve worked hard coming here to protect the Dao, almost lost your life." She walked over in a few steps and took out a ninth-tier Spirit Pill. "Rest for a bit. Leave the rest to me."

Bai Yisheng: "..."

How domineering did those words sound!

Just relax and rest; leave all the powerful enemies to me. With me here, no one can get close to you.

Unfortunately, she was here for Chen Pingping.

And he, as the senior brother, actually had to listen to Guang Xiaoyu talk to him like that. For a moment, he couldn’t help feeling a little bitter.

Only, when he thought of Guang Xiaoyu’s identity and origins—that she had once been a Demon Emperor and later joined the Qingfeng line—she did have some capital to talk like this.

After settling Bai Yisheng, Guang Xiaoyu turned to look at Emperor Cold Wind. "I rarely draw my sword in this life. Today I’ll make an exception for you." With that, her slender jade hand waved, and an ancient, plain-looking sword was slowly drawn out of the Void.

In the process, black mist gushed, Demonic Qi coiled.

Obviously, this was a powerful demonic artifact.

She had picked it up on the way when entering the West Wasteland Sacred Land. Originally she hadn’t wanted to take it, but... this sword seemed possessed, insisting on following her.

Later, after entering the Netherworld, she’d always remembered Senior Brother’s teachings and had never used it.

Now, she had come to this Ancient City.

To protect the Dao for her senior brother.

Draw her sword!

One had to know that the Demon Emperor of the past was a genuine Sword Dao genius!

Her Sword Dao talent far surpassed the masses, surpassing even any Sword Dao genius she had seen. It was just that Chen Pingping didn’t allow her to use the sword.

The moment the Demon Tao Sword was drawn, heaven and earth roared and dimmed in an instant; astral qi erupted from it, spreading layer upon layer.

Guang Xiaoyu charged over. "This sword, Nameless."

Her speed was like a flash of lightning. By the time she finished speaking, the sword in her hand had already pierced through Emperor Cold Wind’s body, leaving behind dense black mist.

That was Demonic Qi.

The Demonic Qi lingered and would not disperse, constantly devouring the Vitality Power within his body. Even a Great Emperor’s qi mechanism found it hard to resist.

"She really is a Demon Emperor, holy shit..."

"Not just any Demon Emperor."

"In this life she hasn’t even verified the Dao yet!"

"..."

She had been a Demon Emperor before, but now, she hadn’t yet verified the Dao.

Even if she unleashed her previous Sword Dao, she still shouldn’t be able to shake a true Emperor Realm, right?

Let alone that Emperor Cold Wind wasn’t just any Emperor Realm expert.

Yet Guang Xiaoyu’s sword had actually pierced straight through his body, as if carrying some kind of terrifying Magic Power.

No one could explain it.

Her companions behind her more or less guessed it. This was probably the "Cultivating Demon" Guang Xiaoyu had been muttering about all along the way?

Exactly!

It was the power of Cultivating Demon.

She coexisted with three Heavenly Demons—mutually generating and restraining, complementing each other. Thus, she could borrow the Heavenly Demon’s power to unleash this world-shocking sword.

It directly severely wounded a Great Emperor.

Cold Wind’s body trembled violently, powerful Power Path exploding through his insides. In that instant, even his Emperor’s Body actually felt like it was cracking.

His mind shook and he could not remain calm.

Buzz!

The second sword tore in at extreme speed, another bolt of lightning, once more piercing through Cold Wind’s body.

His expression changed drastically. "Heavenly Demon power."

"Correct." Guang Xiaoyu sheathed the Demon Tao Sword and turned away with her back to him. "The Heavenly Demons’ devouring and erosion is something all powers in the mortal world find hard to withstand—and I have three of them."

She didn’t look back; her voice drifted over.

But behind her, Emperor Cold Wind was indescribably aghast, fear flickering in his eyes.

Three Heavenly Demons?

Did she mean that in those two sword strikes just now, she had driven the power of three Heavenly Demons into his body?

Damn it!

Emperor Cold Wind soon sensed something—the Zhou Tian and Dantian within his body suddenly blew apart, and his Great Emperor Tao Fruits were devoured in that instant.

His face went deathly pale, his body involuntarily trembling. He raised his head, staring fixedly at Guang Xiaoyu’s back as she walked away, and rasped out a hoarse question: "The Heavenly Demons are still alive?"

Guang Xiaoyu paused for a moment and left behind two mysteriously coy words: "You guess." As her voice fell, she swept her gaze over the dozen-odd Quasi-Emperor Realm cultivators ahead and gave an order: "Kill them."
