As the power of his bloodline and the faith of the mortal realm surged forth, Ye Xuan’s aura reached an unprecedented peak!
In the distance, the black-robed woman narrowed her eyes, filled with excitement. The power in her right hand grew increasingly terrifying.
At that moment, Ye Xuan suddenly charged forward, slashing down with a single strike!
Rip!
A blood-red sword beam tore through the air!
The black-robed woman stepped forward, throwing a punch!
Head-on clash!
Boom!
As the punch landed, sword light and fist aura erupted, twisting the entire beyond space-time in that instant!
Within beyond space-time, Ye Xuan and the black-robed woman were forced back repeatedly!
Ye Xuan retreated nearly a hundred thousand zhang!
But the black-robed woman stopped after less than ten thousand zhang!
More troublesome than a sword cultivator was a physical cultivator!
After stopping, Ye Xuan wiped the blood from his mouth, then looked up at the black-robed woman in the distance. His face darkened upon seeing her.
This woman was completely unscathed!
Her physical body was just too freakish!
The black-robed woman looked at Ye Xuan, “Got any more trump cards?”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly, opening his palm. The Qingxuan Sword trembled violently, and in the next moment, he vanished from the spot!
Rebirth Sword Technique!
Sensing the uniqueness of this strike, the black-robed woman’s eyes narrowed. She stepped forward and threw a punch!
Her fist aura, like a cascading waterfall, forcefully blocked Ye Xuan’s advance!
Ye Xuan’s sword was too special; she didn’t dare let her body take it directly!
Nor was she confident she could withstand it!
Boom!
Ye Xuan was stopped again!
But the next moment, the black-robed woman’s fist aura began to dissipate bit by bit!
Seeing this, her brows furrowed. At that moment, Ye Xuan seized the opportunity, charging forward and slashing down.
A white sword light instantly reached the black-robed woman!
Boom!
She was sent flying tens of thousands of zhang!
When she stopped, the faint red glow around her body was fading bit by bit!
Rebirth Sword Technique!
Even her physical body couldn’t fully withstand it!
The black-robed woman looked up at Ye Xuan, “A very special sword technique!”
Ye Xuan laughed, “Still can’t kill you, it seems!”
The black-robed woman said calmly, “Being able to injure me is something you can be proud of for a lifetime!”
Ye Xuan fell silent!
Damn it!
This woman was quite good at showing off too!
The black-robed woman added, “Now, we can talk!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “How do you want to talk?”
The black-robed woman glanced down, then said, “I’ve investigated your Guanxuan Academy. It’s quite large. How about this: your Guanxuan Academy submits to my True Demon Clan!”
Submit to the True Demon Clan!
Ye Xuan was stunned, then said, “Guanxuan Academy submits to the True Demon Clan?”
The black-robed woman looked at Ye Xuan, “Yes! That way, you and your forces can survive!”
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile, “So, there’s nothing to talk about?”
The black-robed woman stared at Ye Xuan, “I’ll give you three days to consider. Three days from now, I’ll return. If you don’t give me a satisfactory answer, trust me, you’ll regret it!”
With that, she said no more and turned, disappearing into the depths of the starry sky!
Surrender?
Ye Xuan shook his head. He was about to leave when he suddenly turned. Not far away stood a woman!
Xiao Jing! The bandit leader!
Seeing Ye Xuan look over, Xiao Jing blinked, then said, “I didn’t see anything!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “How’s it going at the Benevolent Academy?”
Xiao Jing smiled and walked up to Ye Xuan, “It’s alright! Just that Sister Gu Ran is too kind! Always getting bullied!”
Ye Xuan frowned, “Bullied?”
Xiao Jing laughed, “Don’t worry, with me around, anyone who bullies her will die!”
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment, then asked, “Have you fully recovered your memories?”
Xiao Jing blinked, “No!”
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile, “Did you come to me for something?”
Xiao Jing said, “Who was that woman just now?”
Ye Xuan replied, “From the True Demon Clan!”
Xiao Jing looked at Ye Xuan, “I’ll help you fight her, and you help me with something!”
Ye Xuan stared at Xiao Jing, “Can you beat her?”
Xiao Jing smiled, “Worth a try!”
Ye Xuan fell silent!
Damn it!
He might have underestimated this girl!
Of course, if he knew his father had given her a few drops of the Mad Demon Bloodline, he wouldn’t have underestimated her!
Xiao Jing said seriously, “I help you deal with her, you give me some benefits. That’s not too much, right?”
Ye Xuan was curious, “What do you want?”
Xiao Jing said seriously, “I want to join the inner cabinet!”
Ye Xuan shook his head immediately, “No way!”
Damn it!
Let this girl into the inner cabinet?
If he wasn’t around, the academy would descend into chaos!
This girl was too dangerous!
Without him or Qingqiu to keep her in check, she’d be utterly lawless.
Xiao Jing quickly said, “Then lend me your little tower to play with!”
Little Tower: “…”
Ye Xuan looked at Xiao Jing, “You want to use the little tower for cultivation?”
Xiao Jing smiled, “Just to play!”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then asked, “How long?”
Xiao Jing said, “One month!”
One month!
Ye Xuan smiled, “Can you beat that woman?”
Xiao Jing said, “I don’t know, but I’m not afraid of her! I can play with her!”
Ye Xuan opened his palm, and the little tower slowly floated to Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing grinned, “Thanks, brother!”
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “Xiao Jing!”
Xiao Jing looked at Ye Xuan, and he smiled, “Even if you don’t help me fight her, I’d lend it to you.”
Xiao Jing nodded, “Thank you!”
Ye Xuan added, “Promise me one thing: as long as the academy doesn’t betray you, you don’t betray the academy!”
Xiao Jing blinked, “Don’t worry, brother, I’m not disloyal!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Good!”
Xiao Jing smiled, then turned to leave, “One month from now, I’ll return the little tower!”
Ye Xuan watched Xiao Jing’s departing figure, murmuring, “This girl…”
Without thinking too much, he turned and returned to the academy!
In the hall, Ye Xuan sat cross-legged, slowly closing his eyes!
He realised a core issue: in the earlier fight, he couldn’t break through her defence!
Though the Qingxuan Sword was powerful, unless it made direct contact with her body, it couldn’t harm her!
Physical cultivators!
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan felt a bit helpless!
He had trained his physical body before, and a strong physical body was truly too freakish!
Like a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard!
As for the black-robed woman’s powerful physical body, he still hadn’t come up with a good solution. She was now wary of him and wouldn’t let him fight her up close!
Time passed quickly, and three days arrived in a flash!
On this day, Ye Xuan, meditating in the hall, suddenly opened his eyes. The next moment, he vanished, reappearing in a void!
The black-robed woman from the True Demon Clan had arrived!
Ye Xuan looked at her, “You’re punctual!”
The black-robed woman’s face was expressionless, “Have you considered? Surrender or die?”
Ye Xuan was about to speak when a woman walked over from the side!
Xiao Jing!
Ye Xuan was stunned; he hadn’t expected this girl to actually show up!
Xiao Jing glanced at the black-robed woman, “Even a villain like me behaves in the academy. Who gave you the guts to cause trouble here?”
Ye Xuan: “…”
The black-robed woman glanced at Xiao Jing, “And what are you supposed to be?”
Xiao Jing grinned, “Your face isn’t bad, perfect for tearing off to make a human-skin toy!”
With that, her right hand clenched tightly, and a terrifying aura of violence surged from her. The next moment, a blood-red giant hand tore through the scene!
Beyond space-time shattered in that instant!
The black-robed woman’s eyes narrowed, and she threw a punch!
Head-on clash!
Boom!
With a deafening explosion, both women were sent flying back, each retreating tens of thousands of zhang before stopping!
Ye Xuan looked at Xiao Jing, shocked!
This girl’s strength was that fierce?
To be honest, Xiao Jing had always been low-key, rarely showing her true strength!
So, Ye Xuan had been underestimating her!
What he didn’t realise was that Xiao Jing’s low profile was entirely due to Ye Qingqing and Qingqiu!
With those two powerhouses around, Xiao Jing had no choice but to stay low-key!
The black-robed woman looked at Xiao Jing in the distance, frowning, “Who are you?”
Xiao Jing grinned, “Second-in-command of the Benevolent Academy of Guanxuan Academy!”
The black-robed woman stared at Xiao Jing, “This little academy has some capable people!”
Xiao Jing shook her head, “Back when I was as arrogant as you, now… sigh, woman, a piece of advice: surrender now. Otherwise, if my brother calls for help, it won’t be fun! I’m telling you, he has a sister with a terrible temper. If you meet her, you and your True Demon Clan are done for!”
The black-robed woman’s face remained expressionless, “Is that so?”
Xiao Jing sighed softly, “You won’t cry until you see the coffin!”
With that, she charged forward, throwing a punch straight at the black-robed woman!
As the punch landed, the scene turned into a sea of blood!
Seeing this, Ye Xuan frowned, noticing a trace of the Mad Demon Bloodline in Xiao Jing’s bloodline!
Facing Xiao Jing’s punch, the black-robed woman’s expression turned fierce. The scales on her body began to writhe, and her right hand transformed into a beastly arm, throwing a punch forward!
Boom!
As a burst of blood light erupted, both Xiao Jing and the black-robed woman were sent flying back. When Xiao Jing stopped, her face twisted, brimming with violent aura!
She was seeing red!
The black-robed woman was also enraged, glaring coldly at Xiao Jing, “I’ll crush your skull soon!”
She then glanced at Ye Xuan, “And yours!”
Ye Xuan said seriously, “I’m not afraid!”
The black-robed woman stared at Ye Xuan, and he repeated, “I’m really not afraid… I don’t know why, I’m just not nervous at all… Does that annoy you?”
…
