Fighting is broken, but the heroine script.

Chapter 1233 The Poisonous Daughter and the Cloud Mist Sword
The piercing screams echoed throughout the land, sending chills down the spines of those who had been watching from afar.

Beneath the poisonous pool suspended in the inverted sky, the serpent lord's eerie figure vanished, replaced by a blood-stained viper with a deep, bone-revealing gash on its back. Its scales, bones, and flesh had been gouged out, and its tendons had been ripped out, rendering it unable to move.

"It is the true form of the Venomous Serpent Lord!"

"Why—why is this?"

"Who could cripple a Sovereign Earthly Being with a single sword strike?"

"Even a supreme being would be powerless to resist, so wouldn't that mean—?!"

Amidst their astonishment and doubt, the unsettling speculations that shook the hearts of those around them caused them to unconsciously lower their voices, exchanging only glances with each other.

Everyone naturally knows the common knowledge that what realm lies beyond the Earthly Supreme.

Even so, it is still incredibly moving.

How could such a being, who possesses the entire continent and whose power changes the very fabric of the world, possibly appear on the Tianluo Continent?

When Xiao Xiao saw the sword light fall and then the sword tip retract, the joy on her face deepened.

"I knew Aunt Nalan would come too."

"If you don't cultivate properly, this calamity is your retribution."

Nalan Yanran sheathed her sword. Although she was relieved to see Xiao Xiao safe and sound, she remained stern and unapproachable when faced with Xiao Xiao's cheerful laughter.

“Aunt Nalan has wronged me. I have been asleep for a hundred years, and my cultivation time is limited. You can’t compare me to my younger brother, can you? His starting point is already the pinnacle that others may never reach in their entire lives.”

Xiao Xiao said with a hint of grievance, which made Mu Chen unconsciously raise his eyebrows.

"younger brother?"

Mu Chen murmured subconsciously. Come to think of it, this girl does resemble the one he met on the Shang Continent before...

……No way?

Even so, Mu Chen still had some doubts about how he could encounter such a coincidence in such a short period of time.

"Okay, I know you're upset."

The fairy doctor, being soft-hearted, took Xiao Xiao's hand, giving her a way out.

"Be extra careful when you're out and about."

Nalan Yanran wasn't really blaming Xiao Xiao, but she couldn't help but give her a word of advice before she left.

"Yes, yes, I remember everything Auntie said, don't worry~~~"

Xiao Xiao took Nalan Yanran's hand and shook it, and Nalan Yanran could no longer keep a straight face: "You."

"You...you...sword, and poison...could it be?!"

Beneath the poisonous pool hanging upside down in the distance, the viper was on its last legs, yet it was also filled with fear, realizing exactly whose hornet's nest it had stirred up.

The world is vast and boundless, and there are countless sword cultivators and poison masters among them. However, if one is to reach the point of being known throughout the world and to be very close to a sword cultivator or poison master, there are not many options in the entire world.

Although they are not exactly irreconcilable enemies, their temperaments are very different, and there are very few people who specialize in this path who can get so close.

Perhaps the most famous is Yunlan Sword, one of the six matriarchs of the Endless Fire Domain, and the daughter of Heavenly Poison.

If these two powerful figures who suddenly appeared before us, who could overpower even the Earthly Sovereign, are truly the matriarchs of the Endless Fire Domain? And who would be the one to call them "Auntie"?

"Those are all powerful experts with the cultivation level of Heavenly Sovereign."

Mandala explained to Mu Chen, then suddenly raised an eyebrow: "Speaking of which, before you and Jiu You returned to Tianluo Continent, didn't you also go to Shang Continent? That's somewhat considered part of the Endless Fire Domain's assets." "Hmm..."

Mu Chen hesitated, though he was certainly aware of this relationship.

Putting aside everything else, he had already met the prince of the Endless Fire Domain once, but he never expected to meet his sister here.

"What's wrong? Are you so shocked your jaw is about to drop?"

Xiao Xiao smiled at Mu Chen and then said.

"I just didn't expect to see my sister so soon after seeing my brother."

Mu Chen shrugged, somewhat helplessly.

"So, you've met my brother?"

Xiao Xiao was taken aback, then her smile grew even brighter: "How about it? You're quite an impressive person, aren't you?"

"Senior Xiao Se... is naturally a dragon among men."

Mu Chen murmured with slight hesitation. This was not a compliment, but a fact. What made him hesitate was mainly the way he addressed Xiao Se.

"senior?"

Xiao Xiao blinked when she heard Mu Chen say that, and then laughed out loud.

"There's absolutely no need to add the word 'senior.' If it were him, he certainly wouldn't care about your form of address. My brother is a very nice person; he wouldn't have a bad impression of you because of a trivial form of address."

"Besides, I've been sleeping on and off for hundreds of years, and he still calls me 'sister' all the time. There's no need for any fancy formalities."

"That's true... He really is a very approachable person."

Mu Chen nodded. As the son of the Yan Emperor and Empress Xuan, and a warrior who personally fought in the Demon Realm, it seemed that with such a status and strength, even if he was arrogant, he had the confidence to back it up.

He was a renowned figure throughout the world, yet surprisingly easy to get along with, a rather unexpected contrast.

"Of course."

Xiao Xiao smiled and waved her hand. Her charming and radiant reaction was completely different from her previous noble and slightly distant demeanor.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that she would be so enthusiastic when talking about a certain person.

But considering that the two are siblings who grew up together, it doesn't seem so surprising.

While Xiao Xiao and Mu Chen were chatting, they also needed to take care of the immediate matters.

"How dare you lay a hand on the Empress's daughter? It seems you, a viper, have cultivated for hundreds of years, but your cultivation is nothing special, though you've certainly got some nerve."

Nalan Yanran turned around, her gaze sharp as a sword, chilling to the bone.

"Second, Second Fire Domain Mistresses, I was momentarily confused and disturbed the Imperial Princess. Please, please spare my life!"

"You said... spare my life?"

Little Fairy Doctor shook her head: "If we weren't here today, and Xiao Xiao hadn't had anything to protect her, would you have asked for mercy?"

"Since you enjoy playing with poisons so much, I'll give you this upside-down poison pool."

As soon as the words fell, countless beams of poisonous light shot out from the calm poison pool, piercing through its body, yet also taking on a physical form like chains, dragging the viper into the poison pool. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared amidst the upheaval, turning into a pile of white bones.

"Even a blood feud can be washed away with blood, but how many lives do you have to repay for lustful thoughts?"
