“What kind of rubbish is that?”
Hearing the plain-skirted woman’s words, the black-dressed woman let out a scornful laugh, “Your Excellency, such arrogance!”
By the seaside, the plain-skirted woman opened her palm, a sword suddenly appearing in her hand.
The Sword of the Path!
The Sword of the Path vanished abruptly.
In the Heavenly Tomb Land, the black-dressed woman’s pupils shrank, for that sword was now above her head!
A savage glint flashed in her eyes, she flung her right hand upward, “All Laws to Nothingness!”
As her voice fell, the countless layers of spacetime above her head annihilated in an instant.
This was true erasure!
This power transcended spacetime entirely, leaving no laws intact!
The Circle-Drawer!
This was a technique she had created herself!
In the sky, everyone watched that sword!
The countless mysterious forces couldn’t stop the Sword of the Path, it plummeted straight down, ignoring all resistance!
Seeing this, the black-dressed woman’s pupils contracted, she was about to act again when the Sword of the Path pressed against her forehead!
Slash!
The blade sank half an inch, blood sprayed, in an instant, her blood-red veil grew even redder.
The countless powerhouses in the scene paled, their eyes filled with terror—could their invincible Ancient Priestess not withstand this sword?
The black-dressed woman stared in disbelief at the plain-skirted woman by the sea, “You… you’re not the Circle-Drawer!”
At that moment, the plain-skirted woman slid two fingers lightly, in the Heavenly Tomb Land, the Sword of the Path moved with her.
Slash!
The blood-red silk veil covering the black-dressed woman’s face fell away, revealing a stunningly beautiful face, at the same time, two blood-red characters appeared on her forehead: “Trash!”
Trash!
When the black-dressed woman realised what they were, her expression twisted into something ferocious, “You dare humiliate me!”
The plain-skirted woman suddenly swung a slap.
Smack!
The Sword of the Path struck the black-dressed woman’s cheek.
Boom!
Her physical body shattered instantly!
Yet those two characters remained on her forehead!
They weren’t carved into her flesh, but etched into her soul!
The black-dressed woman’s face darkened to the extreme, while her clansmen around her cowered in utter fear!
No resistance at all!
Their Ancient Priestess had no power to fight back against this plain-skirted woman!
By the sea, the plain-skirted woman’s lips curled into a mocking smile, “Humiliate you? Trash like you isn’t even worthy of my humiliation!”
With that, she turned her head coldly toward the black-dressed woman, “Know why I didn’t kill you?”
The black-dressed woman glared back, silent.
The plain-skirted woman flicked two fingers.
The Sword of the Path swept across the black-dressed woman’s eyes!
Slash!
Her pupils shattered!
Everyone: “…”
The black-dressed woman clenched her fists, her face nearing madness, “If you want to kill me, just do it, why the humiliation?”
The plain-skirted woman’s face was expressionless, “Weren’t you having a grand time humiliating my brother just now?”
The black-dressed woman’s expression froze!
The plain-skirted woman gently beckoned with two fingers, the Sword of the Path shot into the sky, “Want to die? Simple enough, just say it now, tell me you want to die, and with this one strike, you and your entire clan will vanish completely!”
Extermination!
Hearing this, the black-dressed woman’s fists tightened, “It was I who humiliated your brother, what does that have to do with my clan?”
The plain-skirted woman raised an eyebrow, “I’ll wipe out whoever I want, what, you’re not convinced? If you’re not, come cross the star domains and fight me!”
The black-dressed woman: “…”
At that moment, the plain-skirted woman pressed her fingers downward.
In the Heavenly Tomb Land, the Sword of the Path plunged.
Boom!
In an instant, the spacetime of the entire Heavenly Tomb Land ignited!
At that moment, everyone’s faces changed!
Flee?
There was no escape!
Because right now, not just the Heavenly Tomb Land, but the entire otherworld was enveloped by this sword!
When it fell, everyone would die!
Of course, except for Ye Xuan nearby!
A true clan extermination!
In that moment, the black-dressed woman panicked.
Only now did she realise what kind of person she was facing!
This was someone utterly indifferent to life!
One strike of this sword, and not just the Heavenly Tomb Land, but the entire Land of Exile would be reduced to ashes.
No one could stop it!
Then, the plain-skirted woman by the sea suddenly said, “Want to live?”
The black-dressed woman looked at her, the plain-skirted woman gazed toward the sea, “Beg my brother! If he says you can live, you and your clan live, if he says no, you and your clan all die.”
Brother!
The black-dressed woman turned to Ye Xuan nearby, at that moment, Ye Xuan was also looking at the plain-skirted woman.
Qing’er!
It’d been a while!
Ye Xuan said softly, “Qing’er, where are you now?”
Qing’er turned to him, the ice in her eyes vanishing instantly, replaced by a touch of warmth, “The Milky Way!”
The Milky Way!
Ye Xuan froze, how had Qing’er ended up in the Milky Way?
Qing’er suddenly asked, “Should I wipe them out? Just nod, and everyone around you, including this woman who bullied you, will vanish from this world forever!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
With a single nod, everyone before him would disappear!
Ye Xuan smiled, “Qing’er, you’re not killing her because you want me to take revenge myself one day, right?”
Qing’er’s lips curved slightly, “Yes! Me settling the score for you isn’t the same as you doing it yourself.”
Ye Xuan grinned faintly, “Got it!”
Qing’er nodded slightly, she opened her palm, the Qingxuan Sword beside Ye Xuan vanished, the next moment, it was in her hand, she examined it, then pinched the blade with two fingers, sliding down to the tip, giving it a light squeeze.
Slash!
The sword’s tip shattered!
Seeing this, Ye Xuan froze, puzzled.
Qing’er opened her right palm, instantly, countless mysterious currents gathered around her, flowing into the Qingxuan Sword, soon, a new tip formed!
Recasting the sword tip!
Qing’er turned to Ye Xuan, “I’ve reforged this sword, in this world, aside from me, only four others can break it.”
As her voice fell, the Qingxuan Sword vanished, reappearing in Ye Xuan’s hand.
Ye Xuan grew curious, “Qing’er, you said aside from you, four others can break it, besides Dad and Big Brother, who are the other two?”
Qing’er smiled faintly, “You’ll find out later!”
Ye Xuan: “…”
Qing’er suddenly said, “I’ve got to deal with a very cocky little girl, let’s chat next time!”
Her voice fell, her body turned ethereal, soon, she vanished completely.
Gone!
Ye Xuan’s eyes filled with confusion, what was Qing’er doing in the Milky Way? And who was this cocky little girl?
After a moment, Ye Xuan pulled himself together, he looked at the Qingxuan Sword in his hand, now reforged, its tip remade with some unknown mysterious power!
The Qingxuan Sword had been reborn!
Ye Xuan sheathed it, then turned to the black-dressed woman in the distance, “Revive my friends!”
The black-dressed woman glanced at Ye Xuan, this time, she didn’t argue, she opened her palm, then clenched it lightly, soon, countless soul fragments from the world gathered toward her, before long, the souls of A Dao Ling and the others reformed!
Ye Xuan suddenly pointed at Yin Zun’s soul among them, “This one’s not my friend!”
The black-dressed woman looked at Ye Xuan, with a flick of her sleeve.
Boom!
Yin Zun’s freshly reformed soul shattered again, this time erased completely!
Ye Xuan turned to A Dao Ling and the others, “Let’s go!”
A Dao Ling and the rest glanced around, saying nothing, they quickly followed Ye Xuan away!
In the scene, the black-dressed woman and her people didn’t stop them, nor did they dare!
Just moments ago, one nod from Ye Xuan, and they’d all be gone! Who’d dare interfere now?
The black-dressed woman watched Ye Xuan in the distance, silent.
At that moment, an old man approached her, bowing slightly, “Ancient Priestess…”
The black-dressed woman closed her eyes slowly, her fists clenched.
From birth until now, she’d never faced such humiliation!
Even when she and her clan suffered a crushing defeat back then, she hadn’t been insulted!
She wanted revenge, but the thought of that woman filled her with despair!
True despair!
She’d thought that woman was like her, a Circle-Drawer, but now it was clear she wasn’t.
What realm was she, then?
A trace of bewilderment rose in the Ancient Priestess’s heart, this was the first time she’d encountered someone so powerful it defied her understanding!
After a long while, she whispered, “I’ll heal!”
With that, she turned and walked toward the altar.
The gathered powerhouses exchanged glances.
…
Ye Xuan led the group’s souls out of the Heavenly Tomb Land, then A Dao Ling said gravely, “Those people just now…”
Ye Xuan replied solemnly, “A mysterious race, I don’t know their exact origins! But that woman said this otherworld is actually a Land of Exile, and they’re the exiled ones!”
A Dao Ling frowned, “Exiled ones?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “The specifics, I don’t know!”
A Dao Ling fell silent, the others’ expressions grew exceedingly grave.
Then, An Beishen suddenly said, “Lord Ye, thank you for saving us earlier!”
They knew if not for Ye Xuan, they’d have had no chance of revival.
Yuan Zun and Jun Daolin quickly chimed in with thanks!
Ye Xuan said softly, “It’s a small matter!”
He glanced at them, “If that woman wasn’t lying, then this otherworld might be in for big trouble soon! From what I saw, they seemed to be planning some counterattack, meaning this place could turn into a battlefield!”
Hearing this, everyone’s expressions grew solemn.
A battlefield!
If this place became a battlefield, the otherworld was finished!
Not just the otherworld, they might die too, as it stood, Limitless Realm experts were nothing in front of these beings!
Ye Xuan sighed inwardly.
How long had he been invincible before becoming the underdog again?
Bloody hell!
He was just too unlucky!
