Zhu Xian: Get ten times the talent, the sword opens the gate of heaven

Upon seeing Biyao arrive, the Ghost King's deep, fervent gaze softened, and he looked at her gently, saying:

"Yao'er, the evil energy here is very strong, it's bad for your health, you should go back quickly."

Biyao shook her head, stood next to the Ghost King, and looked down at the huge pool of blood below.

Instantly, an extremely heavy aura of killing intent swept over him, his blood and qi surged within him, his eyes faintly glowed red, and a murderous intent erupted from his body.

"Yao'er!"

Just then, the Ghost King let out a deep shout and struck Biyao on the back with a palm, his powerful and domineering magic surging into Biyao's body.

In an instant, the red light in Biyao's eyes vanished, and she was shaken.

Biyao snapped out of her daze and quickly took a dozen steps back. Looking at the malevolent aura floating above the blood pool in front of her, she felt a wave of fear and said:

"Father, this blood pool is filled with such malevolent energy, what exactly do you want with these four ancient spirits?"

Upon hearing Biyao's question, the Ghost King knew that if anyone else dared to ask such a question, he would surely kill them with a single blow.

Biyao was his only daughter, the only person he cared about most, so he patiently said:
“Yao’er, people in the Demonic Sect have no choice but to follow their own path. If I don’t kill other members of the Demonic Sect or the righteous people, they will kill me.”

"Don't worry about this. Just stay in Little Fox Mountain and live happily with Zhang Xiaofan."

"By the way, when Zhang Xiaofan came back last time, I couldn't sense any demonic energy or evil power within him. Maybe he has completely suppressed the demonic energy within him. You two can have children now, you..."

"Father!" Before the Ghost King could finish speaking, Biyao shouted loudly:
“I see that your complexion is getting fiercer than before, and there is often a fierce look in your eyes. It may be due to the influence of this blood pool.”

“Father, you should stop obsessing over destroying the righteous path, stop unifying the world, and stop researching the Asura power on the Dragon-Subduing Cauldron. Xiao Fan told me that it will harm you.”

Hearing Biyao's words and seeing the worry in her eyes, the Ghost King felt a wavering in his heart.

Then, his gaze fell upon the Dragon-Subduing Cauldron floating above the blood pool. The next moment, his eyes were filled with ferocity, and he said in a deep voice:

"Yao'er, stop talking. Ever since your mother died, I've felt life is utterly meaningless. Only by unifying the demonic sect, destroying the righteous path, and unifying the world can I feel like I'm still alive."

"My mind is made up, so please don't try to persuade me."

Seeing the Ghost King's resolute expression, Biyao, knowing his nature well, knew that she couldn't persuade him no matter what.

"Sigh!" Biyao sighed, went to the Ghost King's side, hugged his arm, and said sadly:
"Father, after Mother left, you are my only family. Yao'er really doesn't want anything to happen to you."

As she spoke, Biyao seemed to see the future Ghost King being killed by righteous people, and a tear silently fell down her cheek.

The Ghost King looked down at Biyao. He knew that his daughter had been cut off by her mother to save her when she was young, leaving her with a deep psychological scar.

If I were to die, I fear Biyao would go mad.

Fortunately, Biyao now has Zhang Xiaofan, and she can see that Zhang Xiaofan is more important to Biyao than he is her father.

Moreover, with Zhang Xiaofan's current abilities, even if he, the Ghost King Sect Master, were to die, he would still be able to protect Biyao's safety for life in front of the world.

As long as Zhang Xiaofan is around, he, as a father, can rest assured without any worries.

The Ghost King looked at Biyao with affection and said gently:

"Yao'er, although your father is extremely confident that he can destroy the Qingyun Sect and unify the world, nothing in this world is absolute. Perhaps a master will appear and defeat my plan."

"So, you need to take good care of yourself from now on. Zhang Xiaofan is a good person, and he's been very good to you. After he comes back this time, you should have a child with him."

“Hmm!” Biyao nodded. She knew she couldn’t persuade the Ghost King to give up destroying the Qingyun Sect and dominating the world, so she stopped trying to persuade him.

However, if her father truly failed, she had to find a way to save him. Biyao glanced once more at the blood-fiend aura floating above the blood pool, and at the Dragon-Subduing Cauldron suspended above it.

She always felt that there was a bloodthirsty demonic eye on the Fulong Cauldron, greedily eyeing her, which made her feel terrified.

In an instant, Biyao felt a chill rise from the soles of her feet and rush straight to the top of her head.

Biyao rubbed her hands together and looked at the Ghost King, saying:
"Dad, I feel uneasy staying here, so I'll go back to Little Fox Mountain first."

"Hmm!" The Ghost King gently stroked Biyao's head with his large hand, smiling warmly as he said:

“Go ahead, the Ghost King Sect is no longer a suitable place to stay. There’s an array set up by Zhang Xiaofan at Little Fox Mountain. It’s a beautiful place with clear waters and lush spiritual energy. It’s a good place to live.”

"Father, I'll be going now."

Biyao said something and then walked out of the heart of the cave.

The Ghost King watched with a doting expression as Biyao's figure gradually disappeared into the distance until it vanished at the end of the passage. Only then did he turn his gaze back to the Blood Pool.

The moment he turned around, his smiling face instantly turned sinister, and his gentle gaze was filled with ferocity.

The Ghost King looked down at the blood pool below, which was filled with blood and exuded an incredibly dense and menacing aura.

Within the blood pool, the four ancient mythical beasts—the Candle Dragon, the Nine Heavens Mystic Bird, and the Kui Ox—weakened and remained motionless.

Only the newly arrived Taotie struggled violently in the blood pool, but several iron chains emitted a purple light, trapping the Taotie, and no matter how it struggled, it was to no avail.

Mr. Ghost remained standing on a cliff above, wearing a ghost mask, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Suddenly, Mr. Ghost looked at the Ghost King and said:

"Sect Master, the Four Spirits Blood Array will be obtained in forty-nine days, at which time we will gain the power of Asura. Apart from the Azure Cloud Sect's Immortal Slaughtering Sword Array, then..."

At this point, the Ghost King interrupted, "I have already arranged for spies to infiltrate the Qingyun Sect. On the day we attack the Qingyun Sect, I will have the spies destroy the Heavenly Secret Lock."

"Once the Heavenly Lock is broken, the Immortal Execution Sword can only gather the spiritual energy of the Tongtian Peak lineage. At that time, with the power of the Asura and the Dragon Subduing Cauldron, the Immortal Execution Sword, with the power of only one peak, will be no match for me,"

Mr. Ghost thought this made sense, but as he pondered, he suddenly added:

"But, Sect Master, you forgot about one more person!"

"Who?" the Ghost King asked immediately, a murderous aura emanating from him that filled the entire cave.

Mr. Ghost felt a chill run down his spine as he sensed the murderous aura emanating from the Ghost King.

While feeling alarmed, the Ghost King of the Dark Path had become even more powerful, truly a demonic overlord.

Mr. Ghost glanced in the direction Biyao had left, and after confirming that Biyao was quite far away, he whispered:
"Sect Master, don't forget that Zhang Xiaofan comes from the Qingyun Sect."

"When the Beast God attacked Qingyun Sect last time, Dao Xuan was seriously injured, and now he has disappeared. He is probably no longer a threat."

"However, Zhang Xiaofan has already broken through to the Taiqing realm, and the Zhuxian Sword can only be used by those at the Taiqing realm to suppress his malevolent energy."

"Therefore, if the sect leader attacks the Qingyun Sect and the sect suffers heavy casualties and is on the verge of destruction, what if... Zhang Xiaofan appears with the Zhuxian Sword and wants to fight against the sect leader."

"What will the sect leader do then?"
