“Pfft!”
As the figure behind Luo Chen withdrew the sword, blood sprayed. Luo Chen’s body slowly fell to the ground, his life fading, his wide-open eyes fixed on the petite figure, dying with unresolved grievances.
That petite figure was none other than Hu Yue, who had seized the chance to kill Luo Chen.
The distant onlookers were stunned. They hadn’t expected such a young woman to be such a fearsome assassin, her methods decisive and ruthless, striking fatally in one blow.
They grew wary, realizing that against an assassin, one must always stay vigilant, as any distraction could let them seize an opportunity for a swift, lethal strike, leaving no chance for retaliation.
Luo Chen’s death wasn’t a major blow to the Youtian Demon Palace disciples; his talent wasn’t top-tier within their ranks.
But Luo Yang’s demise caused the brows of other Youtian Demon Palace genius fighters to furrow.
Losing a top-ranked Earth Demon List genius was a significant loss.
Yet, in such a short time, even they couldn’t break away to intervene.
Yang Dehui, who had fought alongside Lin Xiao against Luo Yang, was stunned. Even he, after a long fight, couldn’t defeat Luo Yang and was gradually losing. Yet Lin Xiao not only turned the tide but killed Luo Yang outright.
It was unbelievable.
Ignoring the reactions, after killing Luo Yang, Lin Xiao took his storage ring and even collected his body.
Luo Yang was a powerhouse; his skeleton could be refined into a formidable battle skeleton.
To others, Lin Xiao’s actions cemented his ruthless reputation, not even sparing the corpse.
Having dealt with Luo Yang, Lin Xiao glanced at Ling Gu nearby. Ling Gu was vomiting blood, overwhelmed by Ziling and another fourth-ranked Human Star List fighter. Ziling’s manifested spiritual attacks were formidable, and her spiritual control was cunning, putting Ling Gu in dire straits.
At this rate, Ling Gu would either be killed or forced to flee heavily injured soon.
With Ling Gu handled, Lin Xiao had no concerns there.
His gaze shifted to Muyao’s opponent, a robust youth with immense combat power.
If not for Muyao’s exceptional strength, she’d have been defeated long ago.
Their battle remained evenly matched, a true clash of titans.
“Let’s deal with you first!” A smirk curved Lin Xiao’s lips as he drew the Yaoguang Broken Sword, eager to test its power.
“Watch out!” At that moment, Gu Shiyou, battling Bai Moxuan, roared. A dark saber aura slashed out, its terrifying force making the void tremble, emitting strange whistles as a vast swath of the sky darkened.
Opposite, Bai Moxuan’s sword light blazed, unmatched sword aura clashing with the dark saber aura.
“Rumble!”
A thunderous boom erupted, vast shockwaves bursting in the air like raging waves, surging in all directions, shaking the entire area with their collision.
Seizing the moment, Gu Shiyou broke off, charging towards Lin Xiao.
“Hmph, think you can target others in my presence? Not so easy!”
Bai Moxuan moved like a white light, his sword slashing down, brighter sword aura erupting with unparalleled force, striking at Gu Shiyou’s back.
“You’re not enough to stop me!”
Gu Shiyou didn’t halt, flinging a massive black iron shield from his storage ring behind him.
The shield radiated rolling black mist, terrifying light bursting from it, blocking Bai Moxuan’s sword aura.
“Rumble!”
With a loud boom, Bai Moxuan’s sword aura shattered, but the black iron shield continued towards him, unstoppable.
“What is that?” Bai Moxuan frowned, striking again, his sword aura hitting the shield.
But this only dispersed the shield’s light barrier; it kept charging forward.
Frustrated, Bai Moxuan moved, gripping his sword with both hands and striking the shield directly. With a “clang,” the shield was finally knocked away, rendered useless.
In those few moves, Gu Shiyou had reached Lin Xiao.
A torrential aura erupted from Gu Shiyou, his strongest strike aimed at Lin Xiao.
He knew Bai Moxuan would soon catch up, so he struck with lethal intent.
Boom!
A massive saber aura, hundreds of zhang long, pressed down from the sky, trembling the heavens with a humming sound. The terrifying black aura dimmed the world, outshining the surrounding combat lights.
“Since you’re so eager, I’ll deal with you first!”
Seeing Gu Shiyou charge, Lin Xiao changed his plan, deciding to join Bai Moxuan against him instead of Muyao’s opponent.
“Yaoguang Sword, show me your power!”
Lin Xiao gripped the sword, activating the Yaoguang Sword Technique. His body turned transparent, then dazzling white light burst from him, illuminating the entire area.
This light outshone all other combat flares, so bright that those nearby could barely keep their eyes open, unable to look directly.
“Chi!”
As Lin Xiao poured vast, ocean-like power into the rusty broken sword, terrifying fluctuations erupted from it. Brighter, piercing white light shot out, illuminating a hundred-li radius, enveloping everyone in its glow.
Boom!
Lin Xiao slashed, an immense sword aura striking Gu Shiyou’s terrifying black saber aura. A deafening boom rang out, torrential shockwaves erupting, shaking the sky with relentless force.
