Yun Xiao was in a wretched state, his body completely torn open, blood gushing out, making him look like a figure drenched in blood!
More critically, his clan!
After that battle, nearly ninety percent of the clansmen he brought had perished!
Ninety percent!
The only survivors were those above the Ten Thousand Calamities Realm, and they survived not because of strength but because they fled quickly!
Though alive, all were gravely injured!
In this battle, the Divine Demon Clan had lost nearly all its elite forces!
Boundless Lord remained silent.
He hadn’t anticipated things would turn out this way. He had already overestimated Qin Guan. From his investigations, she didn’t have a particularly powerful army, but those chaotic gadgets just now…
Were those an army?
At this moment, Yun Xiao snarled, “Boundless Lord, don’t you owe me an explanation?”
Boundless Lord looked at Yun Xiao. “What explanation do I owe you?”
Yun Xiao roared, “You were the one who told my Divine Demon Clan to come to the Guanxuan Universe to support you, and now my clan is in this state…”
Boundless Lord interrupted, “Calm down!”
Yun Xiao glared at him. “My clan is in ruins, and you tell me to calm down? Boundless Lord, are you in cahoots with the Current Universe? You deliberately set up my Divine Demon Clan and the Alien God Clan, you…”
Yun Xiao abruptly waved his sleeve.
Boom!
He was blasted back ten thousand feet!
Yet, he didn’t die!
Boundless Lord looked at him. “If I wanted you dead, would I need to collude with them?”
Yun Xiao calmed slightly.
Boundless Lord’s tone softened. “I understand your mood and your anger, but anger won’t solve anything! I warned you before you came not to underestimate that woman! But you didn’t take her seriously enough, alas…”
Yun Xiao’s expression steadied. “What do you suggest now?”
Boundless Lord glanced at the starry expanse behind Yun Xiao, now pitch black.
Completely obliterated!
After a moment’s silence, he said, “Rest for a bit, then I’ll have someone escort you to the Current Universe!”
Yun Xiao looked at him. “Still go?”
Boundless Lord said calmly, “If you want to back out now, you can! But are you willing to?”
Yun Xiao fell silent.
Boundless Lord suddenly called, “Divinity!”
A white-haired figure, Divinity, appeared in the field.
Boundless Lord continued, “Monk Wu!”
An old monk appeared.
Boundless Lord looked at them. “You two escort the Divine Demon Clan!”
Divinity said gravely, “That woman has a sword light!”
Boundless Lord replied, “I know!”
Divinity looked at him. “You didn’t mention it!”
Boundless Lord said calmly, “She won’t dare use it. It’s her last trump card. If she uses that sword light, she loses her final lifeline! She won’t use it unless absolutely necessary!”
Divinity asked, “What if she does?”
Boundless Lord looked at him. “Here’s a survival tip, don’t target her, target her high-tech gadgets, got it?”
Divinity asked, “What are high-tech gadgets?”
Yun Xiao and Monk Wu also looked at Divinity, equally curious about Qin Guan’s high-tech gadgets!
Especially Yun Xiao, who had nearly been wiped out by them!
Boundless Lord said calmly, “They’re a kind of weapon, similar to our divine artifacts, but her crafting methods differ from ours.”
He paused, then added, “Do you know what technology is?”
The three shook their heads.
Boundless Lord said lightly, “Now you do?”
The three: “…”
Boundless Lord continued, “Divinity, Monk Wu, from now on, you two keep an eye on her. Her high-tech gadgets are great for group battles but weak in single combat. With your strength, you can easily destroy them!”
Divinity suddenly asked, “What if she uses that sword light?”
Boundless Lord looked at him. “I’ll cover you!”
Divinity fell silent.
Boundless Lord added, “I’m giving you two ten of my guards!”
As his voice fell, ten black-clad figures appeared behind them!
Boundless Lord said, “Your main task now is to keep Qin Guan in check!”
Yun Xiao suddenly said, “Can I make a request?”
Boundless Lord looked at him. “Speak!”
Yun Xiao stared at him. “I don’t want to fight that woman. I want to fight the Backer King!”
Boundless Lord was silent for a moment, then said, “Are you sure?”
Yun Xiao nodded.
Boundless Lord nodded slightly. “Fine!”
He turned to Divinity and Monk Wu. “Escort Clan Leader Yun Xiao to the Current Universe!”
The two nodded.
Boundless Lord turned and vanished on the spot.
Yun Xiao looked at Divinity and Monk Wu. “Good luck!”
With that, he led the surviving Divine Demon Clan warriors and disappeared into the starry depths.
Monk Wu clasped his hands. “Amitabha! Benefactor Divinity, is that sword light strong?”
Divinity shrugged. “Not that strong!”
He looked at Monk Wu, clasping his hands too. “Master, your Buddhist Golden Bell Technique is unmatched. What’s a mere sword light to you? Even a hundred wouldn’t break your defence!”
Monk Wu was silent for a moment, then said, “You even deceive a monk. Doesn’t your conscience hurt?”
Divinity: “…”
…
Guanxuan Universe.
The battle in the Guanxuan Universe remained fierce, reaching a fever pitch.
In the sky, Ye Xuan held his Qingxuan Sword but didn’t act, as it was pointless. His task now was to keep Tian Mang in check.
Tian Mang also held back, wary of Ye Xuan’s sword! More importantly, he was worried about the Divine Demon Clan.
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “Tian Mang, why not surrender?”
Tian Mang froze, thinking he misheard, his face full of shock. “Surrender?”
Ye Xuan nodded. “If you and your Divine Demon Clan surrender now, I can spare your lives!”
Tian Mang stared at him. “Have you gone mad from fighting?”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Do you think I’m strong?”
Tian Mang was silent for a moment, then said, “Strong!”
He couldn’t lie, Ye Xuan was indeed strong, and despite being a lower realm, he had the ability to kill him.
Ye Xuan suddenly added, “I’ll be honest, in my family, I’m the weakest.”
Tian Mang looked at him. “The weakest?”
Ye Xuan nodded. “Whether it’s my big brother, my father, or my sister, they’re all much stronger than me. I…”
He sighed softly. “Truth be told, compared to them, I’m still just a little brother.”
Tian Mang said calmly, “Are you saying your brother, father, and sister are very strong?”
Ye Xuan nodded. “I’m laying it all out! I’m just a Backer King. If not for my sister, I’d have died countless times!”
Tian Mang stared at him. “You’re saying you’re just a little brother compared to them?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Tian Mang asked, “How big is the gap?”
Ye Xuan thought, then said, “I don’t know!”
He genuinely didn’t!
Tian Mang suddenly roared, “Ye Xuan, they warned me before I came that you’re full of tricks and lies, and sure enough, you’re trying to bluff and scare me! I’ve cultivated for millions of years. You think a young pup like you can fool me?”
Ye Xuan was silent.
Tian Mang continued, “Throughout history, how many cultivators have claimed to be invincible? Countless! And those who died by my hand? If not a thousand, at least eight hundred! Invincible?”
He sneered. “Just a bunch of deluded fools who’ve lost their minds! Your sister, your brother, your father, are they always boasting about being invincible?”
Ye Xuan was silent, at a loss for words.
Tian Mang went on, “Through the ages, how many cultivators? Who dares claim invincibility lightly?”
Ye Xuan wanted to speak, but Tian Mang waved his hand. “Ye Xuan, stop spinning these lies! You’re a decent sword cultivator, a respectable opponent, but if you keep trying to fool me with such cheap lies, I’ll look down on you! You can kill me, but don’t insult my intelligence, understand?”
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment, then said, “I understand!”
At that moment, the distant vortex in the sky split open, and Yun Xiao emerged with the remaining Divine Demon Clan warriors!
Seeing Yun Xiao and his group, Ye Xuan’s face darkened!
Another super powerhouse, and the demon beasts behind him had terrifyingly strong auras.
The enemy kept growing in number!
What to do?
Ye Xuan felt a wave of helplessness!
After emerging, Yun Xiao scanned the surroundings and asked, “Who’s the Backer King?”
The crowd: “…”
Tian Mang suddenly pointed at Ye Xuan below, respectfully saying, “Clan Leader, this is the Backer King of the Guanxuan Academy!”
Yun Xiao looked at Ye Xuan below. “You’re the Backer King, Ye Xuan?”
Ye Xuan’s face was grim.
Yun Xiao sized him up, then sneered, “I heard you have many backers. Is that true?”
He was seething with unvented rage, and this Backer King seemed the perfect target to unleash it on!
Ye Xuan was about to speak when the Third Young Lady of the Alien God Clan suddenly said, “Didn’t Boundless Lord tell you not to waste time with chatter?”
Yun Xiao turned to her, annoyed. “What’s it to you?”
The Third Young Lady glanced at Yun Xiao, then stepped aside, saying no more. She looked up at the starry depths, puzzled. Where was Boundless Lord?
She knew he was likely gone!
Otherwise, he wouldn’t let Yun Xiao and Ye Xuan waste time talking!
Yun Xiao turned to Ye Xuan, about to speak, when Ye Xuan said, “Do you really want me to call for help?”
Yun Xiao stared at him. “Go ahead! I’d love to see how strong your so-called backers are!”
He didn’t believe Ye Xuan’s backers could all be as monstrous as Qin Guan!
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “If I call, you’ll bear the consequences!”
Yun Xiao frowned. “Are you a woman? I told you to call, so call! Why all the nagging?”
Ye Xuan stopped talking, opened his palm, and the Qingxuan Sword floated slowly to Yun Xiao. “My sister wants to chat with you. Sense the sword, and you can talk to her!”
At that moment, the Third Young Lady’s face changed drastically. “Don’t sense that sword! You’ll die!”
Yun Xiao spun to face her, eyes narrowing. “Are you doubting my strength?”
