Chapter 060 - All of You, Die!
Chapter 060 - All of You, Die!
Shall we drink together in the next life? No! What Yun Xiao fought for was this very life! What significance would the next life hold?
"I want you dead—!" Like a tempest, Yun Xiao, brandishing his sword, charged toward the thousand-year-old Demon Emperor. This creature, akin to the perilous beast of the Origin Core Realm, was now a menace that only Ye Tiance of the Azure Spirit Sword Sect could combat!
Without the hostages from the Ye Family, facing these two formidable beings was inevitably a dead end! However, was there anyone in this world who cared for Zhao Xuanran more than Yun Xiao?
As Yun Xiao moved, another sword, even swifter than him, exploded from the Grand Hall, bursting forth like an enraged azure dragon from its den, surging from the side, biting precisely at the vital part of the serpent demon!
PSHT! The sinisterly smiling serpent demon immediately spurted blood, letting out a horrendous scream, fiercely thrown flying! A basin-sized bloody hole ruptured through its serpentine body, demon blood splattered, the sword was embedded deep into its bones!
"Zhao Jianxing!!" The thousand-year-old serpent, screeching maliciously, managed to wriggle and rise. Despite being soaked in its own blood, its thick skin and rugged flesh miraculously sustained life. Yet, even if it didn’t die, it was severely injured!
Indeed, Zhao Jianxing had acted! How could he allow his own daughter to suffer in front of this Grand Hall? In pain, the serpent demon spat out the dark silhouette. Yun Xiao, a flickering white shadow, immediately embraced her in his arms.
"Senior Sister Zhao!" Yun Xiao’s eyes turned scarlet, his voice trembling.
"It’s okay... just a bump, the demon's poison has entered my body, but it won’t kill me," Zhao Xuanran, also with teary reddened eyes, assured him. In the next moment, her expression shifted, looking toward the direction of the Grand Hall! "My father!"
Yun Xiao’s body also jolted. "Just now, did Master use that deadly force?" If he did... Zhao Xuanran landed on the ground, disregarding her injuries, her eyes filled with anxiety as she rushed into the Grand Hall.
"My dear Xuanran! It’s okay, your father didn’t use his full strength, there’s still hope!" Grandpa Qin’s words, if anything, allowed the tightly-wound nerves of these two young individuals to finally loosen a bit. There was still hope! As long as there was hope, there was possibility! Yun Xiao's heart also just relaxed a tiny bit.
However, an overwhelming fury immediately surged into his heart, setting his entire being ablaze!
"Zhao Jianxing has fallen into the trap and is dead. Let Ye Tiance deal with what’s left! We’re leaving!" The thousand-year-old serpent demon, still in pain, immediately spoke to the only remaining wolf Demon King.
Sure enough, the creature had targeted Zhao Xuanran, all to force Zhao Jianxing to release his final kill!
Being the roughest and toughest creature of the Northern Wastelands, it could surely withstand it! It did not believe that Zhao Jianxing, having shattered his sword three years prior, could muster another Sword Soul strike tonight and survive!
Today's mission hadn't gone smoothly. The Moon Fairy had wasted an avatar, and two eight-hundred-year-old Demon Kings had died!
"At least we saved the Ye Family members, giving Ye Guying some peace," it thought.
Considering Zhao Jianxing was undoubtedly doomed, and this Serpent Emperor was bleeding profusely, there indeed was no need to linger.
"Go!" The last Wolf King, already frightened to its core by Yun Xiao, hastened its escape. How had this youngster become so strong? Wary, it turned, aiming to disappear into the forest. However, in that moment, sword sounds echoed from behind—ten times!
BOOM BOOM BOOM! Scales glittered, and a frigid, murderous sword aura whirled forward!
"What?" The Wolf King spun around, only to see that the youth in white was, astoundingly, chasing them—him and his sword alone! In an instant, his Sword Soul was upon the Wolf King!
"Did I say you could leave?!" Yun Xiao’s face was a dark storm.
Ten-Step Scale!
With ten explosive sounds from the Flying Sword, a flash of light, and the head of the last Demon King—equivalent to an ordinary Sword Venerable—burst open!
BOOM BOOM BOOM! It toppled dead on the escape path, its body catapulting thirty feet forward, spraying blood along the way, and toppling several green pines.
"Serpent demon, your death shall be here too!!" Yun Xiao pursued into the forest, his white figure a flash, intercepting the thousand-year-old Serpent Emperor! Hum! He held aloft his three-foot long azure sword, his hair whipping about, and his eyes surged with sword light!
"Heh heh heh!" The thousand-year-old serpent demon sneered. "You're simply too naive. Do you think I withdrew because I feared you, a mere child? I could consume ten of your kind every day!"
The Serpent Emperor had already formed its core! Its demonic power surged, like endless poisonous fog. Wherever the black mist passed, the surrounding forest quickly withered into black water, even melting rocks!
Whoosh! Before the serpent demon could finish speaking, Yun Xiao fearlessly charged toward it! Forward without retreat! Life or death hanging in the balance! Not a hint of hesitation!
"You—!" The thousand-year serpent demon flew into a furious rage. It had traversed the Northern Wastelands, and when had it ever been so provoked by a youth?
"Fine! I shall assist Ye Tiance once more!" A sudden expulsion of dark demonic mist, thick and rolling like a sinister torrent, lunged toward Yun Xiao!
With a shift of his form, Yun Xiao’s Sword Soul morphed once again into a Flying Sword.
Ten-Step Scale! He struck out with his sword once more!
BOOM BOOM BOOM! Ten sonic booms of the sword, skimming across the black fog like stones across water, zoomed, aiming to pierce into the sight of the thousand-year-old serpent demon!
“Hehe!” With eyes closed, the serpent demon lifted its sharp, black horn to meet the attack, while its tail, like a long whip, furiously lashed towards Yun Xiao!
BAM! Such mighty force in the tail, every tree in its path was cleanly bisected! Confidence swelled within it. Unexpectedly, at that very instant, the azure Flying Sword detonated with an eleventh resounding ring!
“What?!” The serpent demon cried out in astonishment.
Who said the climax of the Ten-Step Scale was merely ten sword sounds? If we’re skipping stones, why set a limit? With the qualifications of a Creator Immortal, Yun Xiao propelled the Ten-Step Scale to new heights!
BOOM! With a final flick, like a fish flipping its tail, the azure sword swiftly circled around the demon’s horn, in a flash plunging into the gory wound! This was the very wound Zhao Jianxing had created!
The serpent demon was caught completely off guard!
Yun Xiao's Heaven Burial Sword Soul surged in, whirling and slashing, instantly severing the thousand-year-old serpent demon’s heart! Two generations, the sword relayed! What Zhao Jianxing couldn’t cut, Yun Xiao could!
SPUTTER! The Heaven Burial Sword Soul stabbed into its heart, puncturing the cardiac walls, voraciously consuming the serpent demon’s blood.
SPUTTER SPUTTER SPUTTER! Copious amounts of serpent blood erupted like a fountain from its wound!
“Impossible...” The serpent demon howled in agony, its expression a grotesque mask of pain! Its choice to retreat was precisely because this wound was a vulnerability! It had never imagined, this youngster’s swordsmanship was many folds more profound than Zhao JIanxing's, even breaking Azure Spirit's history, turning the Ten-Step Scale into eleven steps!
It was familiar with the Ten-Step Scale! Precisely because of this familiarity, it was caught by surprise!
"HISSS!" The serpent demon wailed, mobilizing all its demonic energy, aiming to lock down Yun Xiao’s Sword Soul, while enduring the pain to launch another attack on Yun Xiao’s body! As long as this man died, the Sword Soul would naturally dissipate!
“You think you can suppress my Sword Soul?” Yun Xiao nimbly dodged the sweeping serpent tail, abruptly swooping to strike the other side of its wound with a punch!
The thousand-year-old serpent demon screeched once again, its heart continuing to violently bleed out! Its black blood dyed half the mountain crimson! Its serpentine body visibly collapsed inward, highlighting its massive blood loss!
“Your Sword Soul... it consumes blood! And has deathly powers! It corrodes my flesh...” The thousand-year-old serpent demon, wide-eyed and disbelieving, stared at Yun Xiao. “This is not a Green Lotus Sword Soul at all!”
