Heaven Shaking South City, Qi Family Manor, 100 Mu Green Lake.
In the pavilion in the middle of the lake, Qi Titeng, Qi Yunlong, and Qi Pengfei stood side by side, looking west.
In the west, the sun was setting.
Suddenly, a small dot emerged from the setting sun and quickly approached, growing larger and larger. In just a blink of an eye, one could tell that it was a soaring Heavenly Dragon Horse.
A person stood on the horse's back. His black clothes were like ink, and his cape fluttered in the wind. His skin was like cream, and his face was like an immortal. His bright eyes flickered with a burning golden light.
It was Mu Xiaohuang!
She stood on the saddle of the Heavenly Dragon Horse, her body as straight as a javelin. The strong wind that blew against her face could not even move a single strand of her hair!
The Heavenly Dragon Horse had already flown above the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Mu Xiaohuang leaped and landed on the lake from a thousand feet in the air. The wind whistled as Mu Xiaohuang fell like a meteor. Her cloak was pulled by the strong wind and straightened like a piece of iron, revealing the large sword case under the cloak.
Just as she was about to fall into the lake, a faint golden light suddenly burst out from her body. Her falling momentum suddenly slowed down, and she floated down gently like a feather that was not affected by any force!
Waves…Mu Xiaohuang's feet, which were wearing short boots, stepped lightly on the surface of the lake, creating a circle of faint ripples.
However, the soles of her boots did not touch the surface of the lake. There was still a very short distance between the bottom of his boots and the surface of the lake.
The ripples were only caused by a stream of air.
She was simply floating in the air!
The Heavenly Dragon Horse circled above her twice, neighed twice, and flew out of the city. Although it was a first-grade demonic beast and was quite powerful, demonic beasts could not cultivate exquisite martial arts before advancing to transcendent-grade and transforming into human form, so it was no match for humans. Usually, two First Grade Demonic Beasts were needed to fight against a First Grade Martial Saint.
In today's situation, the Heavenly Dragon Horse could not help and could only leave.
Mu Xiaohuang floated above the lake and stared at the three Qi brothers in the pavilion. There was a distance of ten feet between them.
"Mu Xiaohuang, you're finally here!" Qi Tianteng chuckled.”
Mu Xiaohuang retracted the golden light in her eyes, revealing her crystal-clear pupils. However, there was an extreme indifference in his black pupils, giving people the feeling of putting life and death outside the boundary-putting one's own life and death outside the boundary, and also putting the life and death of others outside the boundary!
"Cut the crap. Where are my family and the Long family?”
She asked coldly, her voice as cold as ice.
"They're all there."
Qi Tianteng pointed with his finger. Mu Xiaohuang looked over and saw 30 large ships slowly approaching from afar. With her eyesight, she could tell that the people on the deck of the big ship who were tied up and bunched up were from the Mu and Long Families.
On each ship, there were many Qi Clan disciples holding all kinds of weapons, glaring at the prisoners on the ship.
Qi Tianteng looked at Mu Xiaohuang and chuckled.""The Mu Clan has a total of 317 people in Heaven Shaking City. I ordered my second brother to kill 34 of them, leaving 283 people. Don't worry, my second brother killed those you didn't want to see. I've killed more than a hundred of the 693 Long Family members in Heaven Shaking City. The rest are on the ship. As long as you seal your martial arts and surrender, I promise to release everyone immediately.”
Mu Xiaohuang was silent for a moment before she said lightly,""I refuse."
Qi Tianteng was stunned, seemingly surprised by her answer.""What is it? You won't surrender? Mu Xiaohuang, are you going to watch them die? You have to know that these people are all implicated by you! If it wasn't for you, would they have suffered this calamity?”
Mu Xiaohuang's expression did not change." You can be despicable and take hostages. Of course, you can be even more despicable and break your promise. If I take a gamble, they might have a chance. If I bind them, they will die without a doubt. Since that's the case, why don't we take a gamble?"
Qi Tianteng's expression changed several times. He had never expected that the kind, naive, and almost silly girl from the Mu family would have such a huge change in her temperament after five years of not seeing her. She could actually disregard the lives of seven to eight hundred people.
Then, he thought about how Mu Xiaohuang had been pestering him for several days after being threatened by Qi Pengfei. She only rushed over at the last minute, as if she was hesitant about walking into the trap. Qi Titeng could not help but suspect,"
"Could it be that the Mu family's girl's heart is really as cold as her words? Did she rush over today just to do her best to comfort her conscience? Did she not care much about whether she could save the people of the Long and Mu families? If it were me, if I were to tie myself to death and hand over the divinity that could allow me to reach immortality in exchange for the lives of my family members, I would never be willing to do so…What is a family to me? As long as I don't die, I can build an even more glorious family after I become a god…"
At the thought of this, Qi Tianteng had great doubts about whether he could use a hostage to threaten Mu Xiaohuang. However, since he had already taken a hostage, he would not be satisfied if he did not give it a last try. "Since you won't surrender, then I'll kill two people every ten breaths. I want to see how many people you can save!"”
"You want to use hostages to bind my hands and feet?" Mu Xiaohuang said indifferently. I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. I came here today to kill! As long as I can kill all of you before you kill all of them…then even if more than half of them die in the end, you will be buried with them. My life will not be in vain!”
"Aren't you afraid that your family will hate you for doing this?" Qi Tianteng asked curiously.”
A cold smile appeared on Mu Xiaohuang's lips. Although her smile was cold, it was exceptionally moving."Only a fool would hate me for this. Why should I care about the hatred of fools?”
Qi Tianteng was silent for a moment, then he looked up at the sky and laughed strangely,""Hehehe, I didn't expect you to be so much smarter after not seeing you for a few years!”
Mu Xiaohuang said," People will grow up eventually. It's impossible for them to be as ignorant as they were when they were young."”
Qi Tianteng burst into laughter again. He nodded repeatedly and said,"Alright, alright! You're quite decisive. You made my arrangements turn into nothing. However, I used the lives of the Long and Mu Families to threaten you. I wanted to force you to come to Heaven Shaking City. After you come, if you surrender without a fight, it will naturally be more to my liking. Even if you don't surrender, I don't care. "Don't look at how you're already a Demigod at the first realm of the Heaven realm. It won't be difficult for the three of us to join forces and capture you. Mu Xiaohuang, didn't you want to go on a killing spree? Come and try and see if you can take the lives of us three brothers!”
Mu Xiaohuang slowly said,"How hard is it to kill you?" There was no need to rush. I still have some doubts. What…are you? Human or Heavenly Demon?"
"Oh?" Qi Tianteng asked. You know about the Sky Demon? Ha, presumably, it was through Third Brother's puppet technique and the Heavenly Demon Illustrations written by Heavenly King Yuanshi?”
"That's right," said Mu Xiaohuang. Qi Pengfei's puppet was very similar to the puppet technique of the demonic warlock's beast soul recorded in Heavenly King Yuanshi's Illustrated Manual of Heavenly Demons.”
"Hehe, Little Phoenix, you guessed half right." The Qi family does have the power of the otherworldly demon. Our Qi Clan is the descendant of the Heavenly Demon. In ancient times, the Seventh Heaven Demon King was crushed by Heavenly King Yuanshi with one palm strike. However, he did not lose any of his true spirit and escaped in time. He was thrown into a pregnant woman's womb. He was the ancestor of the clan. From then on, all the descendants of the Old Ancestor had Heavenly Demon True Spirits.
"Those with a powerful True Spirit can awaken their Heavenly Demon Bloodline and possess the power of the Heavenly Demon Clan that is different from the humans of Xuanhuang! We are not pure humans, nor are we pure otherworldly demons. We can either appear as pure humans or transform into pure Heavenly Devil bodies. We…are creatures that are more perfect than humans and otherworldly demons!
"In our clan, those who awaken the bloodline of the ancestral spirit can pass on their true spirit to their descendants before they die. Therefore, our lineage is getting stronger and stronger with each generation. "Before my father died, he took the initiative to give up the consciousness imprint in his truesoul and fused his truesoul into Second Brother's truesoul, allowing Second Brother to complete his nine-headed dragon vein!”
Mu Xiaohuang's heart skipped a beat. She already knew the origins of the Qi family.
Heavenly King Yuanshi's Illustrated Manual of Heavenly Demons once said," The Heavenly Demon Clan had two ways to escape complete destruction. One was to condense the Skyfiend energy into a Skyfiend Seed before dying, and hide his True Spirit in the seed. The Heavenly Demon Seeds were either egg-shaped or fruit-shaped. When someone approached, it would emit a strange fragrance that was specifically targeted at humans, luring people to eat it.
After eating the Heavenly Demon Seed, the power within the seed would completely transform the human body, allowing one to possess powerful strength for a short period of time. Cultivating martial arts would also be very fast, but no matter what, he could not advance to the Heaven Rank. This was because this transformation was to prepare for the possession of the celestial demon true spirit. Most of the energy, as well as the power of the martial artist's self-cultivation, was absorbed by the Heavenly Demon True Spirit without the martial artist noticing to nourish the True Spirit.
When the time came, the Heavenly Devil True Spirit could destroy the soul of the person it possessed, possess the body, and transform into the Heavenly Devil True Body. The Heavenly Demon that Ye Fei encountered was reborn in this form. That Yuan Demon Lord must have eaten a Heavenly Demon Seed.
The other method of rebirth for the otherworldly demons was what Qi Tianteng had mentioned. They would inject their true spirits into the living beings 'embryos and borrow their embryos to be reborn. This method of rebirth was not limited to humans. Demonic beasts and monsters could reincarnate. Moreover, it was very concealed and would not be exposed. However, it would also be limited by the physical body of the reincarnated race. It would be difficult to recover the power of the Heavenly Demon in a short period of time. Moreover, this method could only be used by Demon Kings and above.
There were also many types of Heavenly Demons, and their appearances were naturally varied, making it almost difficult to differentiate them. However, the power of the Sky Demon could only be divided into Sky Demon Warriors and Sky Demon Sorcerers. Among them, there were many types of Heavenly Demon Sorcerers. Puppet Sorcerers and Dragon Bloodline Sorcerers were two of them. Qi Pengfei was a Heavenly Demon Puppet Sorcerer. According to Qi Tianteng, the second son of the Qi family, Qi Yunlong, was probably a Heavenly Demon Dragon Warlock.
Dragon Vein Warlocks could refine the dragon veins in the world for their own use. The mountain dragon vein, the water dragon vein, and the sea dragon vein could all be taken as their own. The powerful Heavenly Demon Dragon Vein Warlocks could even refine the entire earth's dragon veins and use them for their own use. Their power was earth-shattering.
Back then, Heavenly King Yuanshi had met a Heavenly Demon King who had extracted and refined the dragon vein of an extraterrestrial star into a dragon. The star dragon had once taken three palm strikes from Heavenly King Yuanshi and survived. It wasn't until the fourth palm that the star dragon collapsed and the Heavenly Demon King died.
Qi Yunlong was known as the Nine-Headed Dragon, and Qi Titeng said that he had the Nine-Headed Dragon Veins. Then…with Qi Yunlong's power, what grade would the Dragon Veins he extracted and refined be? Presumably, it was definitely not the earth dragon vein, because if the mountain dragon vein was extracted, the mountain would collapse. If the dragon vein of the Yellow River is collected, the Yellow River will dry up. If the earth dragon vein was taken, the earth would become a desert. Such a huge commotion could never be hidden from an expert.
Therefore, Qi Yunlong's Nine-Headed Dragon was at most a mountain, river, and dragon vein in some desolate and uninhabited land. Each dragon's power would never exceed the Heaven Rank. However, he should not be lower than a first grade Martial Saint of the Human Realm. Otherwise, he would not have been able to take care of the Mu Clan easily.
However, Dragon Bloodline Warlocks had special abilities. They could calculate divination, summon the wind and rain, and command lightning. They could not be compared purely by the strength level of martial artists. Mu Xiaohuang knew that Qi Yunlong had probably deduced that she possessed divinity and a small world!
She recalled the abilities of the Heavenly Demon Dragon Vein Warlocks recorded in the Heavenly Demon Illustrated Guide at lightning speed. Mu Xiaohuang said calmly,""Aren't you afraid that I'll spread the news about your family if you reveal all your background? At that time, countless people would probably fight to get rid of the demon.”
"You won't." Qi Tianteng smiled indifferently. Because you're also afraid-you're afraid that we'll fight to the death and tell others that you have a small world and divinity. If this matter were to be leaked…do you think there would be more people eliminating demons, or more people coming to snatch your divinity and small world?
"Even Long Aotian, if he knows that you have divinity and a small world, do you think he will help you or come and snatch you? Oh, Long Aotian might not be able to snatch you, but do you think he will send the news back to the Celestial Worthy Pavilion and ask the Heaven Rank martial artists of the Celestial Worthy Pavilion to rob you? Even a fifth level land immortal would come to talk to you personally! As for Long Aotian, he could also use this achievement to jump from an outer sect disciple to an inner sect disciple!
"Even your Mu family will force you to hand over your divinity and small world! Of course, they didn't have the ability to force you. However, they could find the people from the three supreme sects and spread the news as a way to advance! They wouldn't see you as the hope of the family just because you have divinity. "Because the current you simply doesn't have the ability to protect your divinity in front of those old monsters at the 5th realm of the Heaven realm. If you leave your divinity behind, once this matter is exposed, the entire Mu family will be exterminated!
"Mu Xiaohuang, you can only fight alone. You can only come and kill us personally. You can't even invite a single reinforcement, and you don't dare to! However, how can you be a match for us three brothers alone? Today, you're walking into a trap!"
Mu Xiaohuang was silent. Qi Tianteng's words hit the nail on the head. Once the Qi family went all out and spread the news that she possessed divinity and a small world, then…it would not be long before everyone turned against her and her family. The end of her and the Hidden Immortal Sect would also be near!
"No one will know if I kill all of you.”Mu Xiaohuang removed the sword case and placed her hand on it.
She would never allow this matter to be leaked-if she was alone, what was there to be afraid of? At most, he could flee to the ends of the world and hide in the Battlegod Tomb for ten to twenty years. He could wait until he reached the fifth realm of the Heaven Realm or even the God Realm before coming out.
But…she still had four disciples. How could four disciples who were only children be allowed to hide in the dark Battlegod Tomb? How could they spend ten to twenty years in that barren, lifeless, and small world that did not even have living water? How could they spend their colorful childhood and youth?
What was the difference between this and going to jail? Yanyan, Xiao Xian, and Huo 'er couldn't even enter the cultivation space!
Mu Xiaohuang no longer had her parents. Her four disciples were her closest relatives.
She was the towering tree of the disciples. She held up the sky for the disciples to shelter from the wind and rain. Because of her existence, the disciples could live happily and grow up healthily in this chaotic world where the strong preyed on the weak. Without her, what kind of miserable situation would the disciples be in?
If they weren't her disciples, with their talent, they might have been accepted as disciples by famous sects and clans. However, they were her disciples. They had learned her martial arts and received her kindness and teachings.
If someone came to deal with her and snatched her divinity, those people would definitely not leave any hidden dangers behind. They would definitely eliminate her disciples. With the beauty of Yanyan, Xiao Xian, and Huo 'er, they would even be crippled of their martial arts and trained into playthings!
She did not dare to imagine the consequences. She could not tolerate her disciples being in danger or even being killed because of her!
She had to kill the Qi family to keep the secret.
Protect…the happiness of her and her disciples!
She slapped the sword case with her jade-like hand, and a dazzling golden light bloomed. With a resounding dragon roar, the seven flood dragons unsheathed their swords, and sword qi swept across!
Qi Tianteng waved his hand, and a Long family member and a Mu family member were immediately pushed to the side of the ship. With a flash of the blade, blood splattered and two heads fell into the lake!
Mu Xiaohuang leaped forward and swept her sword horizontally! The sword Qi swept across the Qi brothers like a tsunami.
Qi Tianteng cackled and raised his palm to support the sky. The roof of the pavilion above his head exploded with a loud bang. The gravel gathered together and formed a huge stone hand. It clenched its fist and swept at the sword Qi that was sweeping across!
"Kill two people in ten breaths!" "Let's see how many people will remain from the Long and Mu Families in the end!" Qi Titeng laughed strangely.”
When the battle started, he did not forget to use the people from the Massacre Dragon and Mu families to disrupt Mu Xiaohuang's fighting spirit!
Boom!
With a loud bang, the huge stone fist collided with the sword qi, causing dust and debris to fly everywhere! Under the impact of the residual force, huge waves instantly rose on the surface of the lake!
Just as Mu Xiaohuang arrived, Ye Fei and Huanhuan also sneaked into the Qi Manor. At this moment, most of the Qi family's forces were concentrated in the hundred acres of green lake in the manor. Ye Fei and Huanhuan sneaked all the way to the lakeside, avoiding a few patrols.
As soon as they reached the lakeside, they saw Mu Xiaohuang holding a sword in her hand. She stepped on the waves and rushed towards the three Qi brothers. The three brothers of the Qi Clan also attacked one after another, each with their own unique moves as they welcomed Mu Xiaohuang!
"I'll go help. You stay here!”Ye Fei ordered Chenchen without hesitation. He activated his Wings of Wind and flew into the sky. At the same time, he summoned the Twelve Men of Gold. At the same time, he swung his right hand and shouted,"Five Fireballs!"
Five sparks shot out from his fingertips and turned into five giant fireballs the size of water tanks, which then shot toward the pavilion in the lake!
Huanhuan didn't listen to Ye Fei's instructions. She rushed straight to the surface of the lake and stepped on the water with her bare feet, creating layers of ripples. Like a fairy, she rushed to a big ship. "There's a limit to being a soy sauce…" she thought.
The curtain of battle was lifted!
