Villain Master, my disciples all want to backstab me

"But to kill you... I don't need a second sword!"

Before he finished speaking, Ling Xiuya formed his fingers into sword fingers and lightly pointed at the lion demon opposite.

With this movement, a beam of brilliant starlight flew from Ling Xiuya's hand and, almost instantly, reached the lion demon. The latter hastily attempted to dodge, but his reaction was noticeably slower than before. He barely managed to turn sideways when half his body was crushed by the starlight, shattering like porcelain!

In fact, the lion demon had already reached the end of its strength and only managed to hold on with one breath to avoid death immediately.

However, he could only barely hold on to survive, but there was no way he could kill Ling Xiuya, whose strength was much higher than his.

At this moment, the last straw that broke the camel's back fell, and he could only fall down with his eyes bloodshot, lying in a pool of blood, dying with his eyes open.

"call……"

Ling Xiuya breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned his gaze to the silver-scaled snake in front of Jiang Rao and Ji Tingxue.

The lion demon was right in saying one thing: the "Sword that Overturns the Galaxy" wasn't a standard skill for Ling Xiuya. It was a burst of mystical power. Combined with the tiny wisp of "Heavenly Sword Intent" he'd painstakingly accumulated over the past few months, it was able to unleash such devastating power that it could instantly decimate his opponent.

Now that his sword intent had been exhausted, and his blood and qi were churning, he could only use that move once more—a weakened version of [Galactic River]—for a short period of time. Otherwise, forcing it again would likely overdraw his spiritual power, causing him to fall back to a state he hadn't fully recovered from.

But it’s okay…

The goal has been achieved.

According to Jiang Rao's plan, as long as one of the four demon gods fell within half an incense stick, their chance of winning would increase from 30% to 60%. Ling Xiuya achieved this in just ten breaths, which was far beyond expectations.

Next…

Ling Xiuya glanced around and his eyes fell on Qingluo.

This little phoenix is ​​still a bit stubborn.

Her strength hadn't recovered much from her battle with Jiang Rao, remaining at only the third or fourth level of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. If she were facing a lion demon, while she might not have been able to resolve the battle as quickly as Ling Xiuya, she would still have the upper hand. However, she was facing a seventh-level Spiritual Transformation Black Eagle Demon, who had also studied the Divine Phoenix Clan as an imaginary enemy for a long time.

Therefore, Qingluo was suppressed by the opponent almost from the beginning of the battle.

At this moment, they were in a state of complete disadvantage and were in danger several times.

See this.

Ling Xiuya grasped the sword again, and the next second he appeared beside the Black Eagle Demon, forcing the latter to turn around and be on guard: "Change!"

"..."

Qingluo pursed her lips, but did not reject Ling Xiuya's kindness. She immediately turned around and flew back.

The Black Eagle Demon wanted to give chase, but was stopped by Ling Xiuya's sword: "Sir, you are eager to test my strength, why not now?"

"...Okay, okay, let's play it this way, huh?"

The Black Eagle Demon glanced at the Lion Demon lying in a pool of blood in the distance, and his face became extremely gloomy.

He now understood the intentions of Jiang Rao and his group.

But even if he saw through it, there was nothing he could do. Because "Tian Ji's Horse Racing" was originally a conspiracy, even if he saw through it, it was useless. From the moment the lion demon fell, the decision of this battle was no longer in the hands of the four demon kings, and the balance of victory was gradually shifting towards Jiang Rao and others.

Unless one of the remaining three demon gods can explode and kill the enemy in front of him, otherwise, this operation will basically fail.

If the operation failed, but he could eat the Divine Phoenix bloodline in Qingluo, it would not be a big deal. However, the appearance of Ling Xiuya interrupted the battle of the Black Eagle Monster, making him feel that his plan was about to collapse completely.

"what!!!!"

"How dare a mere human disrupt our clan's plans!!!"

The Black Eagle Demon also fell into a state of frenzy, and the aura of his cultivation began to rise steadily.

At that moment, the creature's form began to swell. Its already massive frame stretched out even further, like a small mountain. Its wings, nearly a hundred meters long when spread out, expanded further and further, transforming into a pair of massive black-grey wings that covered the entire sky, sweeping over like the "Heaven and Earth" of ancient mythology!

Faced with this earth-shattering pressure, Ling Xiuya did not dare to be negligent. As he swung his sword, the scene of swaying stars appeared around him again. He tried his best to resist the attack of the Black Eagle Demon.

The aftermath of the battle between the two sides was far more intense than when Qingluo was there just now. It spread out again and again, tearing the space and the earth apart.

The terrifying pressure surged up like a tide, even making Jiang Rao and others in the distance tremble involuntarily.

At this time.

Qingluo, dressed in golden clothes, flew to the side of Jiang Rao and Ji Lingyun, opened her mouth and spit out a handful of Nirvana Fire, which made the silver-scaled snake in front of Jiang Rao and Ji Lingyun immediately scared to death. It hurriedly turned its body, but was still hit by the flames and had to drill into the ground immediately, trying to put out the fire in this way.

The snake demon's breath moved back and forth underground, causing Jiang Rao and Ji Lingyun to lose their target for a moment.

"Go help your junior sisters, leave this to me."

After leaving behind these bland words.

Qingluo no longer looked at Jiang Rao, nor did she look at the silver-scaled snake that burrowed into the ground. Instead, she turned her gaze to the surrounding barrier.

Compared to killing the Black Eagle Demon and his group, this is the key to breaking the deadlock -

As long as the barrier is broken, Jiang Rao can use the communication jade slip to send a message to the remaining cultivators in Tianyuan Mountain, as well as Meng Yueshan and Baili Qingfeng, and bring everyone back to Tianyuan Mountain thousands of miles away. At that time, even if Xue Shenzi, Shentu Hong, or even the old patriarch of the Shentu family came in person, it would be almost impossible to break through the mountain protection formation of Tianyuan Mountain.

only……

Breaking the barrier is not easy.

The "Ten Absolute Formation of the Sun" was jointly maintained by these four Spiritual Transformation Realm cultivators. Now that two of them were gone, the barrier remained stable, indicating that there were special magical instruments nearby, acting as the "eyes" of the formation. To break the barrier, these "eyes" must first be discovered and destroyed.

Qingluo observed carefully for a while, then released his spiritual sense to detect the surroundings.

at last.

She raised her head and fixed her eyes on a certain spot.

The next moment, she gently raised her hand, and the golden chain with the pattern of the Divine Phoenix Clan reappeared. With Qingluo's wave of her hand, it suddenly shot out towards the rocky cliffs several kilometers away!

Bang——! ! !

The rocks exploded!

A piece of jade under the mountain exploded at the same time!

At this moment, the outer perimeter of the "Ten Absolute Formation of the Sun" began to vibrate. The mountains, rocks, and trees outside the formation gradually emerged, but the image was still a bit blurry, like a mirage.

"Damn..."

The Black Eagle demon noticed Qingluo's actions and attacked even more fiercely, so fierce that even Ling Xiuya was unable to withstand it.

But Qingluo continued her search. She carefully explored the southern side of the barrier, eventually locking her sights on another valley.

slam-la-

Amid the sound of chains shooting, the second piece of jade exploded!

With two of its four corners lost, the "Ten Absolute Formations of Tianyang" could no longer be maintained and began to show signs of collapse and breakage.

Without waiting for the barrier to completely collapse, Qingluo spread her wings and flew out from the crack in the barrier!

She left with...

There was also someone's body that she had hidden in her wings in advance!

Chapter 212 The Blood God Reappears!

"Did you make it?"

Time goes back to a moment ago.

Jiang Rao had already noticed it when Qingluo broke the first piece of jade.

At this moment, she, Ye Shuang'er, Bai Hu, and the somewhat passive Ji Lingyun were all working together to besiege Mo Zhe. Although the latter was fierce and furious, facing four opponents approaching the Divine Transformation Realm, including one in the Return to Void Realm, he was unable to change his situation.

Soon, this guy began to be caught in a dilemma and was overwhelmed.

However, because Mo Zhe's ability was too buggy, he was almost immune to all physical attacks. Jiang Rao and Ye Shuang'er had not prepared any magical weapons against the Shadow Leopard Clan before this trip, so they could only suppress him but could not quickly defeat him.

At this time, the second jade piece was shattered again.

this moment.

Everyone on the battlefield clearly heard the loud "crash" sound like breaking glass.

As soon as the barrier was broken, Jiang Rao retreated and temporarily left the battlefield, then sent out the message he had prepared long ago through the communication jade slip.

——Calculating the time, it has been less than half an hour since the appearance of the Four Transformation Gods of the Demon Clan.

Presumably, it would take some time for the people from the Shentu family and the Xueyuan Sect to arrive at the battlefield.

A thousand miles away from here was the gate to Tianyuan Mountain. As long as the elders on the mountain could respond immediately after receiving the message and send one or two teams to assist, they would be able to spend the night safely.

If Meng Yueshan and Baili Qingfeng could arrive in time, it would not be impossible for them to defeat the demon clan and capture these four demon kings in the spirit transformation realm in one fell swoop.

Think about this.

Jiang Rao breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense string in her heart loosened a little.

But then...

"Hey, where's Master?!"

Ye Shuang'er's voice broke the silence:

I am such a great master, wasn't I just here?

"?"

Jiang Rao's eyelids twitched, and she turned around suddenly, looking around. Only then did she notice that Qingluo had left the battlefield alone and taken Bai Yuan away.

"This……"

The two sisters looked at each other and were both surprised.

The two of them fought so desperately against opponents of higher rank, their goal being to wait until the immediate trouble was resolved before returning to deal with the internal conflict. They would then first retrieve Bai Yuan's body from Qing Luo, then properly explain the "misunderstanding" of the past and try to make peace with this senior sister.

——If it really can’t be resolved, then we can only find a way to deal with the eldest sister first.

But now, Qingluo didn't even say hello to them and just took the people away. How could this be possible!

What if she turned around and found a deserted place, and burned Bai Yuan's body with the Nirvana Fire...

Then, wouldn't everything they did tonight be in vain? !

"Sorry, Second Senior Sister, and Sister Ji and Dabai... I'm leaving this to you!"

Ye Shuang'er gritted her teeth, suddenly swung her sleeves, and withdrew from the battle group: "I'm going to find Senior Sister and bring Master back!"

"and many more……"

Jiang Rao wanted to stop her, but before she could say anything, she saw Ye Shuang'er riding a cloud of purple-black poisonous smoke, chasing in the direction Qingluo had just left.

Now, Jiang Rao was in a dilemma.

Stay here, something might happen to Ye Shuang'er.

After all, this little girl's brain is not very bright, and she is even more likely to lose her mind when it comes to things related to Bai Yuan. If there is no one around, she might do something stupid.

But if she followed, it would mean that all the pressure on Mo Zhe would be left to Ji Tingxue and Baihu.

As a result, the situation that had originally turned around due to the shattering of the barrier might fall into chaos again. In the worst case scenario, Ji Tingxue and Baihu might both be killed.

The lesser of two evils.

Out of rationality, Jiang Rao could only suppress her worries about Bai Yuan and Ye Shuang'er, and stayed behind to work together with Bai Hu and Ji Lingyun to suppress Mo Zeng. She began to anxiously think about how to quickly defeat the enemy in front of her, and then go find her two sisters and master to reunite.

Throughout the whole process, Ji Lingyun watched coldly, but her eyes drifted to one side of the sky from time to time, as if she had calculated something was about to happen and was waiting for it to come.

soon.

Jiang Rao suddenly felt her chest throb violently, and an inexplicable palpitation arose within her body. It was as if something extremely terrifying was attacking her, or more precisely, in this direction.

"……Um?"

Jiang Rao suddenly turned her head and looked into the distance.

Because the barrier was broken, the surrounding vision had become clear and smooth again. Therefore, Jiang Rao could clearly see that the bright white full moon had been quietly covered with a layer of red since who knows when.

Looking from high up in the sky, countless bats and flocks of birds took off from the mountains, and a large number of snakes, insects, rats and rabbits crawled on the ground. Under the cover of night, they formed a large black mass, like an early warning before an earthquake, or like... they were trying to avoid something terrible.

The latter speculation was soon confirmed -

Because, as time goes by, the red color of the full moon in the night sky not only does not fade, but becomes deeper and deeper.

The fleeing birds and beasts died in large numbers, their blood gushed out like fountains, and were then pulled into the sky by an inexplicable gravitational force, forming long dragons of blood.

"That is……"

Jiang Rao's eyes trembled slightly, and a faint fear surged in her heart.

Ji Lingyun beside him exhaled and said softly, "It's him."

"he?"
