Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

And those four Void Refinement level great demons.

The giant whale that spouts water, the sea serpent that stirs up the sea, the giant crab with eight legs, and the old turtle that claims to be old.

Under the lingering force of Hong Fu's punch.

That enormous body seemed to be gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand.

Click.

One sound after another.

That was the sound of bones breaking.

The four great demons were crushed into dust in mid-air by that power of law.

...

The cultivators of Tian Shu Star City were all dumbfounded.

The despair that had filled the city just moments before has now transformed into an overwhelming silence.

Four powerful demons at the Void Refinement level.

Dozens of demon soldiers at the Nascent Soul stage.

In the time it takes for someone to yawn.

Ashes.

"Really."

"I can't even sleep peacefully."

Master Hongfu turned around, slipped on her shoes, and walked back into the pagoda.

"Those ants down there, clean them up yourselves."

"Don't defile my city."

...

The same sea is more than a hundred miles away from Tian Shu Star City.

The seawater was a deep, almost blackish blue.

A beam of light, like a shield, skimmed across the sea surface and sped past.

Standing atop the shield of light was Su Chen.

Su Chen didn't dare to fly too high on the shield.

This boundless sea is unfathomably deep; who knows what lies hidden beneath its surface?

Keeping a low profile is always a good idea.

He traveled all the way from Luoyan City.

They were getting closer and closer to Tian Shu Star City.

My heart was pounding with anxiety.

Go see a powerful being who has reached the combined realm.

Even with his strong will, Su Chen was still on edge.

"I wonder if that person still remembers me."

Su Chen stroked his chin and chuckled self-deprecatingly.

Right at this moment.

Su Chen's divine sense suddenly swept over a lonely little island in front of him.

On that island.

There is a kind of energy.

Extremely weak.

Yet, it is extremely strange.

Su Chen was also a little tired and decided to rest on the island for a while.

As soon as I landed on the island, I saw a woman lying among the rocks.

The woman was covered in blood.

He appeared to be severely injured and was barely breathing.

Su Chen's divine sense probed the woman's body.

strangeness.

Su Chen couldn't quite fathom the aura emanating from this woman.

His cultivation level is no lower than that of the Nascent Soul stage.

Hearing the noise, the woman opened her eyes with difficulty.

A pair of eyes, very clear and bright.

Her eyes and brows held an indescribable purity, unlike those deep-thinking female cultivators in the cultivation world.

It's more like... a little deer that has strayed into the mortal world.

Her petite figure evoked a sense of tenderness.

She had delicate features and waved a slender little hand at Su Chen.

"Help...help me..."

The woman's voice was very weak.

Su Chen hesitated for a moment.

It's better to avoid trouble.

The woman's origins are unknown, and I am currently at a sensitive time.

But seeing this woman die before his eyes, he figured he might as well make a good connection.

After all, a female cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage wouldn't be connected to someone of the status of Venerable Hong Fu.

Su Chen sighed and took out a healing pill.

Su Chen pried open the woman's lips and fed her the pill.

"Don't speak yet."

"It's important to keep the injury under control."

...

After swallowing the pill, the woman's pale face finally regained a sliver of color.

But just then...

Su Chen's consciousness stirred once more.

Several streaks of light pierced through the air.

Su Chen looked up.

Three or four figures landed on the island.

The leader was a middle-aged monk with a gloomy expression.

He was dressed in a black robe, with a strangely styled short halberd hanging at his waist.

The tip of the short halberd was dark red, as if it had been soaked in blood.

Cultivation level: Early stage of Nascent Soul.

The others behind him were also at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

"OK."

The cultivator sneered as soon as he saw Su Chen.

"Who do we have here that goes to such lengths to protect this vixen?"

"So, he's a traitor."

Su Chen frowned.

"A witch?"

"good!"

The black-robed cultivator pointed at the woman at Su Chen's feet.

"This is a powerful demon that has taken human form!"

"You missed the big battle just now."

"This demoness escaped from Tian Shu Star City!"

"And you actually stepped in to save a demon!"

"Do you realize that you have betrayed our entire human race!"

Su Chen then realized what was going on.

No wonder this woman's aura is so strange.

It turned out to be a powerful demon in human form.

Su Chen's expression changed.

broken.

This is troublesome.

He, a human cultivator, saved a demon in front of so many people.

If this gets out...

The cultivator suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked Su Chen up and down.

"Wait a minute."

"Your face..."

"Why does he look so familiar?"

The cultivator stared at Su Chen for a long time.

"The power of heavenly tribulation!"

"Just now, when you were feeding that demoness the pills, that wisp of energy at your fingertips!"

"You are...you are the Grand Elder of Luoyan City, Su Chen!"

This statement came out.

The people behind the black-robed cultivator were all startled.

Everyone knows the name Su Chen.

With a single sword strike, he shattered the Dragon-Trapping Formation; one man and one sword annihilated eight Nascent Soul cultivators.

That was a notorious evil star who was famous throughout the entire Xuanhuang Continent.

"I didn't expect that."

"The renowned Grand Master Su."

"He's a traitor who colluded with demons!"

"If this news gets out..."

"Your Luoyan City has completely lost face."

That hits the nail on the head.

My identity is too sensitive.

Now, it's that time of year again when the Venerable Hongfu returns.

Luoyan City had always wanted to keep a low profile.

If word gets out that the Grand Master of Luoyan City is in league with a demon, it will cause trouble.

That would cause Luoyan City a huge problem.

The old man Li Ziran's words of advice still ring in my ears.

Don't bring disaster upon Luoyan City.

It seems.

These people cannot be allowed to live.

"What you said is quite right."

Su Chen slowly put his hands behind his back.

"This news must not be leaked."

"so."

"You lot will all die here today."

...

The cultivator hadn't even reacted yet.

All I saw was a flash of crimson lightning.

The lightning was so fast that even his early-stage Nascent Soul realm eyesight couldn't catch it.

puff.

A soft sound.

The black-robed cultivator's chest was burned open by the wisp of heavenly tribulation power, leaving a hole the size of a bowl.

He looked down, incredulously, at the still-smoking hole in his chest.

"How...how is this possible..."

Before he could finish speaking, he collapsed.

The short halberd at his waist fell to the rocks with a clatter.

The others were so frightened they turned and tried to run away.

But Su Chen didn't even lift his eyelids.

The seal appeared out of thin air and swelled to the size of a mountain.

With a loud bang, the fleeing figures were smashed into a bloody pulp.

Su Chen then accepted the seal.

He stepped forward and picked up the dark red short halberd.

A sweep of divine sense.

Hmm, it's a decent magic weapon, and a damaged but high-quality one at that.

Su Chen casually put it into his storage bag.

The succubus leaned against the reef, her clear almond-shaped eyes staring at Su Chen until she was practically drooling.

The human cultivators who surrounded her just now were all in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Even with her own serious injuries, she was still going to fall into their hands.

But the young-looking man in front of her had just stood in front of her to protect her.

It's likely that no female cultivator would remain unmoved.
