I am a full-level celestial master, you let me enter the strange talk of rules?

Holding the Cleansing Sword, Xiao Xuan felt the warmth lingering on the blade from his master, as well as the tainted chill. He recalled his senior brother's final, resolute words, and the last trace of hesitation in his eyes vanished completely, replaced by a steadfast determination and icy killing intent.

He looked at the eerie young man on the ground, his face pale and his eyes filled with venom, and demanded sharply, "Speak! Where exactly is your hundreds of thousands of eerie troops hidden?! And who are your accomplices?!"

Although the eerie youth was critically injured and on the verge of death, his ferocity was now aroused. He forced a cold laugh, attempting a final struggle and threat: "Hmph! You think I'd tell you? Kill me, and you'll never know where they're hiding! They'll avenge me, turning this mountain range—no, the entire region—into a wasteland! You'd better..."

He still fantasized about using this secret as leverage to gain a chance of survival, or at least to make Xiao Xuan hesitate to act rashly.

However, before he could finish speaking, Chen Wen, who had been cautious and still shaken, mustered his courage, tugged at Xiao Xuan's sleeve, and said in a low, trembling but unusually clear voice, "Brother Xiao, I think you don't need to ask him this question anymore."

Xiao Xuan was taken aback, then turned to look at Chen Wen in confusion: "Why?"

Chen Wen swallowed hard, as if recalling the nightmarish yet utterly shocking scene from just moments ago. His voice trembled, and he began to describe it incoherently:

“Just now, Brother Zhang and I went to that demonic cave to get the sword. It's the cave where this sword is located. It was pitch black inside, full of strange creatures! They were densely packed, like ants! They were patrolling and talking, their voices were very strange, and there were so many of them that we couldn't count them! It was like a strange headquarters!”

Extreme fear and lingering dread appeared on his face, but deep in his eyes there was an indescribable excitement, perhaps because the bloodline of the Mountain Guardians had been activated.
"Then Brother Zhang went inside. The strange creatures discovered him and pounced on him, seemingly intending to ask him something."

Chen Wen took a deep breath, as if using all his strength, before uttering the following words:

"But Brother Zhang, with just a casual wave of his hand, a flash of light appeared, and all the strange creatures that rushed at us vanished! They were reduced to ashes! They didn't even have time to scream! I don't know how to describe it, but I felt like it was an 'order' or a 'law' that told the other side to die, and the other side couldn't refuse."

"Then the other monsters in the cave went crazy with fear, trying to run away and attack Brother Zhang, and he..."

Chen Wen's voice grew lower and lower, filled with an indescribable reverence:
"Did he stomp his foot? Or wave his hand? I can't remember, but all the strange things in the entire cave, the entire demon's lair, no matter where they were hidden or how many there were, vanished in that instant! It was as if they were completely erased from this world! It even seemed like a large part of the cave space collapsed!"

Although his description was chaotic, the core meaning was crystal clear: the so-called "hundreds of thousands of strange troops" had been wiped out by Zhang Yangqing in the process of retrieving the sword! Not a single one was left alive!
After hearing this, Xiao Xuan was first taken aback, then suddenly realized what he meant and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

No wonder my senior brother just said, "Just kill them, why waste words with them!"
So that's what my senior brother did!
Moreover, it was done in a way that was completely beyond Xiao Xuan's imagination, directly "deleting" things he didn't like from this world!

My senior brother didn't even ask any questions, he just killed them all! It was so swift and decisive that it was outrageous!

Having figured this out, Xiao Xuan's last bit of concern vanished.

He looked at the strange young man who was still trying to threaten him with the "army," his eyes filled with nothing but cold mockery and burgeoning killing intent.

The strange young man naturally heard Chen Wen's words as well. The sinister smile and threat on his face froze completely, replaced by boundless despair and disbelief!
How could this be?! Hundreds of thousands of soldiers just vanished like that?!
He was wiped out by someone with a flick of their wrist?! What the hell kind of monster is this?!
His last trump card, his greatest reliance, was nothing more than a joke in the eyes of his opponent!

Just as the strange young man lost his composure and fell into despair, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and the last bit of power in his body burned wildly. He was preparing to launch a desperate attack that would destroy everything. Even if he couldn't kill Xiao Xuan, he would take a few people down with him, or create chaos to escape!

Meanwhile, seeing Zhang Yangqing leave, the Fox Clan Head felt Xiao Xuan's murderous intent and knew that the Fox Clan was probably doomed today.

Tears streamed down her face as she scrambled to Xiao Xuan's feet, kowtowing repeatedly and pleading in a heart-wrenching voice:
"Immortal Master! Immortal Master, spare our lives! I know I was wrong! I was confused for a moment and was bewitched by this strange creature. In order to protect my family, I had no choice but to cooperate with him! Our fox family is also a victim! Please, Immortal Master, have mercy and give us a way out! I am willing to lead the entire clan to atone for my sins and serve you!" She tried to gain sympathy and exchange her identity as a victim for a glimmer of hope.

However, upon hearing this, Xiao Xuan laughed loudly, looked down at the old fox kneeling and begging at his feet, his eyes as cold as ice: "Wrong? My senior brother taught me before that you beasts have never known what 'wrong' is! You only know that you are going to die!"

Take responsibility for your own choices!

Before he finished speaking, the Dust-Cleansing Sword in Xiao Xuan's hand shone brightly! He no longer hesitated or held back, his figure moving like lightning, his sword light like a dragon!

kill!

Wherever the sword light passed, demonic blood splattered, and souls were scattered!
The Fox Clan Head was the first to be hit. Before he could even let out a scream, he was cut in two by a pure and sharp sword aura, and his demon soul was annihilated!

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Xuan transformed into a streak of purple lightning and charged into the panicked fox demons who were trying to escape or resist, as well as the other monsters and strange guests who had attended the wedding and had not yet completely escaped!

In his hands, the Cleansing Sword was both a sacred artifact for purifying evil spirits and a deadly weapon for reaping lives!

Sword light and lightning intertwined, forming a destructive storm!

Wailing! Screams! Pleading! Curses!

Various sounds echoed in the night sky, but were quickly drowned out by the even more intense thunderous sword cries!

The Fox Family Manor was completely transformed into a scene of carnage! Houses collapsed, corpses littered the ground, and blood flowed like rivers! The pungent smell of blood and burning flesh filled the air!

Xiao Xuan was so engrossed in the killing that he had no other thoughts in his mind.

My senior's words are the truth, the standard!
Since these guys have chosen to stand on the opposite side, colluding with the supernatural and trying to harm humanity, then killing them all is the only and correct choice!

He was not a bloodthirsty person, but at this moment, he felt only a cold sense of execution and absolute faith in his senior brother's words!

Xiao Wan was so frightened by the hellish scene before her that she collapsed to the ground, her face ashen and her whole body trembling.

For the first time, she realized that this young Taoist priest, who had previously seemed "easy to talk to," was actually such a terrifying being! Decisive and ruthless in killing, he was practically a god of death descended to earth!
Of the two foxes that were leading the way, one had already fainted from fright, while the other had a vacant look in its eyes, huddled in a corner, its body twitching incessantly, its mind clearly broken.

Although Chen Wen was also quite shocked by the bloody scene before him, and his stomach was churning, he looked at Xiao Xuan's figure, which seemed like a god descending to earth, cleansing away the demonic aura.

Watching those monsters who usually roamed the mountains and might even have harmed people being killed one by one, I felt an indescribable sense of pleasure and excitement!
Perhaps it was the instinct within his "Mountain Guardian Clan" bloodline—the instinct to protect the mountains and forests and ward off evil spirits—that was awakened; he actually felt it was a good thing he killed them! (End of Chapter)
