Film & TV: Public Enemy of Justice

"It's not some deadly poison, just a dispersing agent, probably designed to prevent the Crescent Moon Sect from transferring its power. Whoever it's passed on to will lose their power for a period of time," Dongfang said. "Luckily, it wasn't passed on to Bao Si, otherwise we'd really be at their mercy."

“The detoxification isn’t difficult, it just takes time, and given how things are developing, Nanxianyue can’t wait that long!” Zixun shook her head and said, “Now we have no choice but to take a risk!”

Bai Zihua's offensive became more serious, and the swordsmanship he displayed changed significantly from before.

"Give it a try!" Lin Yaoxie said. "I'm here!"

"Dongfang, I have tasted hundreds of herbs and am not afraid of poison. I will use myself as a medium to connect Nanxianyue and Qiangu. You and Qingshui Mantian will drive away these disciples who have escaped the net of evil spirits for us!"

“Alright!” Dongfang Huoqing said, releasing a spirit insect and directing the disciples of Yixiu Pavilion to form a semi-circle, guarding Hua Qiangu and the others.

"Don't worry! Zi Xun, I'll protect you!" Lin Yaoxie had obviously heard Zi Xun's words and said loudly, "Don't worry!"

"Lin Yaoxie, do you want to know why I dare to fight you again?" Bai Zihua's smile turned ferocious.

"No matter your reason! I won't let you off this time!" Lin Yaoxie said.

“You’re still so arrogant! But this time, you’ll have to go back on your word!” Bai Zihua said.

Bai Zihua's sword was much faster than before, and his sword moves were more sharp and accurate, indicating that he had adapted to his state after becoming a demon.

"My true sword!" Bai Zihua held the Heartless Sword to the sky, and the sword actually caused the heavens and earth to resonate, producing a buzzing resonance.

"A new trick indeed!" Lin Yaoxie thought to himself, "Bai Zihua has really changed a lot in just a few days."

The Heartless Sword absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, drawing a long arc in the sky before flying straight towards Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie tightened the golden light, forming a thick barrier between his two palms. However, this allowed some Changliu disciples to break into the inner circle from the outer side he was defending, and the pressure on Dongfang Huoqing and the others suddenly increased!

Bai Zihua's sword actually struck the center of the golden light. Its power was greater than before, but it still couldn't penetrate Lin Yaoxie's defense.

"Lin Yaoxie, if that's all you've got, you really can't do anything to me!" Bai Zihua's voice became even more arrogant.

"Is that so?!" Lin Yaoxie scoffed, and once again unleashed the golden light to defend against the enemy.

"Stop the demon god from transferring his power! Kill this villain Lin Yaoxie!"

Bai Zihua shouted, and immediately the Changliu disciples around him all shouted in unison!

Chapter 137 Demon God Hua Qiangu

"The Sword of Qiben!" Bai Zihua immediately unleashed a second sword strike, which was clearly even more powerful than the second one.

"Report four... Bai Zihua's sword moves have suddenly become very sharp. Could it be that he has broken through to the tenth level?!" Dongfang Huoqing said.

"Tenth Heaven?!" What the hell? Lin Yaoxie was puzzled. He wasn't from here, so he naturally didn't understand how cultivation techniques here advanced.

"Hahaha..." Bai Zihua had obviously heard Dongfang Huoqing's words, "You guessed right, I have finally broken through to the tenth level! I have to thank Young Hero Lin for this!"

Dongfang Huoqing's expression turned somewhat cold upon hearing his words. Lin Yaoxie did not understand what the tenth level of the Heavenly Realm meant, but he knew that if Bai Zihua was currently at the tenth level, it meant that apart from Lin Yaoxie, the rest of them were at Bai Zihua's mercy.

"Report to the fourth heaven, he has reached the tenth heaven. Apart from you, none of the rest of us have the strength to fight him!" Dongfang Huoqing said. "You can go and deal with Bai Zihua with peace of mind. I will give my life to protect Qian Gu and the others!"

Lin Yaoxie glanced at him. Now that the divine artifacts had been fused together, there was none left to protect them, so this was all they could do.

"I'll try to finish this quickly!" Lin Yaoxie said rapidly. "You must be careful!"

A cold smile crept across Bai Zihua's lips. A quick victory in 270?! Even without Huan Siling and Sha Qianmo, Bai Zihua was capable of fighting Lin Yaoxie to the death today!

"Sword without roots!" Seeing Lin Yaoxie's fearless demeanor, Bai Zihua immediately unleashed his third sword strike!

This time, the Heartless Sword absorbed not the essence of heaven and earth, but the power of thunder and rain, its attack carrying the sorrowful quality of dawn over the green mountains.

Even Lin Yaoxie had to exclaim "Good!" after seeing this sword strike! Although Bai Zihua had already fallen into demonic possession, his sword moves still carried the shadow of the Changliu Sword Technique, absorbing the essence of the mountains and rivers.

The first sword strike, "Between My Origins," absorbed the essence of life, capable of swallowing the sunset, but its power wasn't particularly strong; it merely penetrated the center of the golden light. The second sword strike, "Sword of Abstinence," pierced through the accumulation of past lives, comprehending the workings of all living beings and gathering their power, but it only just broke through the golden light layer. This third sword strike, however, showed signs of worthy recognition from Lin Yaoxie.

For a short time, Lin Yaoxie was unable to do anything about Bai Zihua.

"Lin Yaoxie, how about it?! Can you withstand these three sword strikes?!" Bai Zihua's eyes held a hint of a smile. "I have a surprise for you!"

After Bai Zihua became possessed by a demon, he became somewhat effeminate. On the surface, he still looked the same as before, but when he spoke, it always made people feel numb all over, and some of his words even gave people goosebumps.

"Since you want to fight, then let's have a good fight!" Lin Yaoxie got into a fighting stance.

"Hahaha...can you afford to wait?!" Bai Zihua pointed a finger from afar.

The Yi Xiu Pavilion was originally primarily a messenger organization, with rather mediocre cultivation techniques. Now, it's at its last gasp and can no longer protect Hua Qiangu and the others. Only Dongfang Qingshui and Ni Mantian can stand on the innermost side, but... they also seem somewhat exhausted now.

"I can't afford to waste time," Lin Yaoxie said. "So, let's settle this in one move!"

"You think I'd be willing?!" Bai Zihua laughed. "I'd rather you be skinned alive and heartbroken than let you have your way!"

"Then give it a try!" Lin Yaoxie feinted, assuming an attack stance, but in the blink of an eye, he was back beside Dongfang Huoqing, helping him withstand a wave of attacks.

"Lin Yaoxie, it seems you're scared!" Bai Zihua laughed wildly. Now that Lin Yaoxie was being restrained, it was a golden opportunity for them!

"Surpass the Demon God with all our might!" Bai Zihua shouted. This is an opportunity that will not come again!

"Want to kill them?! Ask me first!" Lin Yaoxie roared, and the number of his flying swords suddenly increased, all shooting at the nearby people and pushing them several meters away.

"Lin Yaoxie...you better watch out!" Bai Zihua said, and actually conjured up several small swords, which were pointed at Hua Qiangu, Zixun, or Dongfang or Qingfei and shot towards them.

"You think you can hurt them like this?!" Lin Yaoxie sneered and casually flung the small swords back.

"Hehehe..." Bai Zihua suddenly chuckled when he saw Lin Yaoxie's expression. "You only take care of them? What about the other two?"

Lin Yaoxie suddenly realized that Bai Zihua had been drawing Lin Yaoxie's attention to Hua Qiangu, Zixun, and Dongfang. The protective circle he had set up had obviously broken away from Qingshui and Ni Mantian!

"Ah... you villain!" Ni Mantian said coldly. A disciple of Changliu used a vicious method and actually cut a bloody gash in Ni Mantian's abdomen.

"The sky is filled with..." Lin Yaoxie quickly tightened the protective circle, wrapping everyone up again.

"Quickly apply this to Mantian's wound!" Dongfang Huoqing hurriedly tossed Qingshui a bottle of wound medicine.

"How's it going, Lin Yaoxie? This isn't a pleasant feeling, is it?" Bai Zihua's sinister eyes gleamed with a smug, petty glint.

Looking at Bai Zihua's appearance and then at Ni Mantian's pained expression, Lin Yaoxie's heart tightened! It seemed he really had to take this seriously!

"Bai Zihua..." Lin Yaoxie slowly uttered these three words, and a dragon-shaped totem was already faintly coiled between his palms.

"Have you thought this through? If we attack with all our might, who among you will be able to protect them?!" Bai Zihua said, pointing at Nanxianyue.

"Give it a try!" The demonic dragon totem of Lin Yao had been drawn in great detail.

The dragon seemed to still be able to emit a clear dragon roar as it hovered in the sky, already roaming above Lin Yaoxie, its dragon eyes wide open in the direction of Bai Zihua, clearly having found a target to entangle with!

"A mere trick!" Bai Zihua said, as the Heartless Sword transformed into a giant sword, resembling a mountain filled with sword energy, pressing down on Youlong.

"Intercept and kill the demon god..." The disciples of Changliu, like toads, found the smallest gaps and killed their way to Nan Xuan Yue and Hua Qian Gu.

Zi Xun opened her beautiful eyes and actually turned around, flipping over and kicking the person away. However, because both her hands were pressed against Nan Xian Yue and Hua Qian Gu, she couldn't dodge some of the swords and blades.

"Bang? Bang? Bang?" Three disciples who were about to stab Hua Qiangu were blasted away by an extremely powerful counter-attack.

Unbeknownst to anyone, Hua Qiangu had already withdrawn her hands from Zixun's, and a phoenix totem had formed between her brows, its blood-red pattern contrasting with the faint black lines in her eyes.

"The Demon Goddess Hua Qiangu!"

Chapter 138 Primordial Power

Nanxianyue was unconscious, and it was unknown whether she had passed away or was only in a temporary coma.

Zi Xun was abruptly interrupted and vomited a mouthful of blood. "Demon... look at Xiao Gu..." Zi Xun cried out anxiously. Demon Lin had not yet fully transmitted the primordial power, but Hua Qian Gu suddenly had a tyrannical suction force that directly absorbed all the power without even purifying or detoxifying it.

Hua Qiangu stood there, somewhat dazed, looking blankly at the people around her, as if she didn't recognize them. A phoenix totem mark had already appeared between her brows, clearly indicating that she had ascended to become a new demon god.

Looking at Hua Qiangu's condition, Lin Yaoxie realized that, just as Zixun had said, something was wrong!

"Dragon's Roar!" Lin Yaoxie shouted loudly, "Cloud Howl!" The golden dragon seemed to understand Lin Yaoxie's command, and in the blink of an eye, it had already approached Bai Zihua's Heartless Sword.

"You want the Heartless Sword?!" Bai Zihua smiled eerily. "If you want it, you can have it!"

Having broken through the tenth level, Bai Zihua has transcended to a new realm and no longer regards the Heartless Sword as anything special.

After Lin Yaoxie's golden dragon obtained the Heartless Sword, its spiritual power dissipated somewhat. It merely tossed the Heartless Sword to Nan Xian Yue's side before vanishing into nothingness in the void.

Lin Yaoxie, having gained this brief moment, quickly retreated to Hua Qiangu's side, "Xiao Gu, Xiao Gu, what's wrong..."

Hua Qiangu glanced blankly at Lin Yaoxie, as if she didn't recognize him at all. A hint of doubt appeared in Hua Qiangu's eyes. Then she looked down at her hands, then at the two people lying on the ground: Nanxianyue, who had grown to the size of an adult, and Zixun, who had vomited several mouthfuls of blood, and Mantian, who had a wound in her abdomen. She seemed to be pondering her relationship with them.

"Xiao Gu..." Lin Yaoxie reached out to hold Hua Qiangu's hand.

When Hua Qiangu saw Lin Yaoxie's outstretched hand, she quickly took a step back to avoid his touch.

"Xiao Gu?! What's wrong with you..." Lin Yaoxie said anxiously. Hua Qiangu seemed to be a completely different person now. Could this be related to the power of the primordial chaos?

Dongfang Huoqing also withdrew, "Could it be that she was suddenly infused with too much cultivation technique... here?"

Dongfang pointed to the location of his head. Putting aside the state of Nanxianyue when she was transmitting the power, there were two other interruptions, and the second time Zixun was involved. How could a pure power transmission be achieved? It was common for problems to occur in the middle.

"Don't know what to do, huh?" Bai Zihua laughed, ordering all his disciples to stop attacking. Instead, he pulled a sword from his sleeve and put it to his lips. "Let me teach you..."

Bai Zihua's voice was very low, but it had a tone, telling a story in a gentle, plaintive manner.

"Xiao Gu?!" Qing Shui saw that Xiao Gu was actually attracted by the strange charcoal sound, turned around and walked towards Bai Zihua.

"The demon... interrupted Bai Zihua's attack. He used a demonic sound, which is recorded in ancient books as a powerful weapon used by the demon god." Zi Xun said. She knew about this thing. This city was the treasure of Changliu Sect. She should have thought that Bai Zihua would use it to attract the demon god.

"Little Bone?" Lin Yaoxie stood still, not moving, and called out softly, "Little Bone, it's your Yaoxie brother! Little Bone... look at me!"

Bai Zihua did not stop singing, but changed the tune, as if it was a continuation of the story, and a new story was about to begin.

"Zixun...are you alright?" Lin Yaoxie asked, squatting down to help Zixun up. He wanted to see just how capable Bai Zihua was to summon Hua Qiangu!

"I'm fine, don't worry about me, stop Bai Zihua's tirade first! This thing must have been Nanxianyue's weapon before, specifically used to impact people's cultivation. Once Hua Qiangu thinks Bai Zihua is her man, then the first target of the Primordial Power will be us!" Zixun said anxiously.

"It's alright... I believe in Xiao Gu!" Lin Yaoxie looked firmly at Hua Qiangu's back as she walked towards Bai Zihua, her steps growing slower and slower.

Bai Zihua's voice was already quite agitated, clearly because he was anxious because Hua Qiangu was not cooperating as he had imagined.

"Bai Zihua, Xiao Gu is not Nan Xian Yue. You can't convince her with just a battle cry!" Lin Yaoxie said. Ni Mantian had already applied the ointment with Qing Shui's help.

"Is that so... It seems you know too little about the Demon God. Do you know who created this city? And who gave it to the Demon God?" Bai Zihua said. "It was created by the Demon God's birth mother. There is only one in the world. If I can't summon her with this city, then I will have to find another way!"

0oo is asking for flowers.....

Hua Qiangu had already reached the middle of Lin Yaoxie and Bai Zihua. She looked around at the people scattered everywhere; some were still struggling to survive, while others were already cold corpses.

Five people were standing where she turned around. One of them, a tall, handsome man, was staring intently at her, as if he had a million things to say to her.

On the other side was a group of people. The person in the middle was dressed in white, with her hair tied up high. She had a beautiful face but also appeared somewhat effeminate.

"Qiangu... come to your master!" Bai Zihua said. He still remembered that when he was facing a life-or-death tribulation, he wanted to kill Hua Qiangu to silence her. Not only was he stopped by Lin Yaoxie, but he was also forced to guide Hua Qiangu in cleansing her marrow and bones and teach her martial arts. Unfortunately, he hadn't given her a single bit of guidance. Now, he called her "master" without feeling embarrassed.

"Pah! How dare you!" Zi Xun said, Bai Zi Hua's skin was as thick as a three-foot city wall!
