If the Seven Profound Sect had noticed the events at Cuiyan Mountain Villa and sent a Grandmaster, the situation would be completely different, inevitably involving more forces. However, the current Chen Mu was not a Grandmaster of the Seven Profound Sect, which meant no additional forces had been mobilized.

As long as they could repel Chen Mu, they could then take the Bai Family straight to Ice State. Even the Seven Profound Sect would be helpless by then.

Now, Ice State was controlled by the Sky Demon Sect and the Heavenly Corpse Sect!

The Bai Family, being a vassal to the Sky Demon Sect, could establish a footing in Ice State as well.

However.

Venerable Hou Liao of the Sky Demon Sect, while staring at Chen Mu, slowly said, "This man is not weak. I may not be able to defeat him. If we come to a standoff, I won't be able to shield your family for too long."

This was Lang Prefecture. Even if Chen Mu was not a Grandmaster of the Seven Profound Sect, the noise from their confrontation was significant and could possibly attract a Grandmaster of the Seven Profound Sect, which would put him in grave danger. If not for the fact that Bai Yuanqing was somewhat useful, he would have lost interest in fighting Chen Mu and would have retreated immediately. Discover hidden stories at My Virtual Library Empire

"Yes... Yuanqing understands."

Bai Yuanqing's face fell as he responded solemnly.

He understood what Hou Liao meant: if they couldn't repel Chen Mu, then Hou Liao would certainly not tangle with Chen Mu for long and would soon retreat, unable to provide an escape route for the Bai Family. By then, he would have no choice but to abandon the Bai Family and flee to Ice State on his own.

Abandoning the Bai Family was not a concern; these descendants had done some things for him, enjoyed some blessings, and if they died, then so be it. He had already begun to cultivate a Demon Body and would live much longer, possibly even achieving the Seventh Rank. By then, producing another line of descendants was not out of the question. Although breeding was more challenging after cultivating the Demon Body, every child born would inherently possess demonic power, giving them exceptional talents.

"Beloved, grandfather, and I."

Listening to Hou Liao, Bai Shiyong felt a chill in his heart, becoming somewhat panicked and calling out to Bai Yuanqing.

Although his arms were disabled, his partial cultivation of the Demon Body meant it wasn't entirely hopeless that a secret technique might restore him. He certainly didn't want to be abandoned.

However.

Before Bai Yuanqing could respond, Chen Mu, who had remained silent until then, slowly began to speak.

"Are you being too presumptive in my presence?"

His tone was subdued, but at the moment his words fell, a terrifying thunderous aura howled from his body, purple lightning surged, and then he raised his right hand, pulling a short spear from under his cloak. Under the power of the Thunderbolt, the spear bristled with surging and horrific power. Furious thunder concentrated, dazzling and brilliant, even causing the words "Evil-Breaking" inscribed on the spear to seem alive, interweaving arcs of light in the void.

"Spiritual Weapon!"

Hou Liao's expression drastically changed.

Almost without hesitation, with a flash of blood-light, he sprang up and fled furiously into the distance.

Being a Venerable of the Sky Demon Sect, comparable to a typical Martial Arts Grandmaster, he had an extraordinary vision and almost instantly recognized the Evil-Breaking Thunder Spear in Chen Mu's hand. It was far from being a common, inferior spiritual weapon. The terrifying power it unleashed was extremely rare in high-grade spiritual weapons, and more importantly, the opponent was a Thunder Path Grandmaster!

If the attributes did not align, then it would be another matter; a spiritual weapon might only enhance one's strength slightly. But a Thunder Path Grandmaster displaying the power of the Yuan Gang Force, likely having trained the Thunderbolt Martial Body to Perfection, and holding a high-grade Thunder Dao Spiritual Weapon... it wasn't about whether they could repel or block Chen Mu, but whether he could escape with his life!

"Stay behind."

Chen Mu watched as Venerable Hou Liao of the Sky Demon Sect fled in an instant, raising the Evil-Breaking Thunder Spear in his hand. The condensed ultimate thunderous power burst forth instantly, throwing the spear from his hand like a Thunder Arc slashing through the night sky!

This was the first time since obtaining the Evil-Breaking Thunder Spear that he thoroughly unleashed and displayed its fullest capabilities, especially now that his Yuan Gang Force, comparable to the Grandmaster who had trained his Thunderbolt Martial Body to Perfection, bolstered this ferocious Yuan Gang Force and Thunderclap Artistic Conception, the power of the Evil-Breaking Spiritual Weapon.

Three forces converged in one place.

After years unknown, this spiritual weapon once again burst forth with its vast power.

Evil-Breaking shocks the world!

Beneath the night sky, that burst of purple Thunder Arc seemed to illuminate the heavens, piercing through the void. It flickered once and appeared instantly behind Hou Liao, tearing through his body.

Hou Liao, sensing the horrific power within the Evil-Breaking Thunder Spear, was utterly horrified, and without any hesitation, his body let out a long howl, his black robe tearing apart, revealing a half-human, half-demon body covered in blood-red scale armor. Furious demonic power surged out, concentrating on the Demon Corpse, and tried to withstand this strike that spanned a hundred yards.

However.

The surging blood-red demonic power barely clashed with the Evil-Breaking Thunder Spear before it was torn apart inch by inch, completely unable to contend, and under Hou Liao's incredulous gaze, it completely shredded all blood-light, crushing the scales on his back like paper, and piercing right through, entering his body!

"Pu."

Hou Liao's body frozen mid-air, suddenly spat out a mouthful of completely charred black blood. A dark blood hole appeared on his chest, the edges completely charred.

His face still wore an expression of reluctance as his life rapidly faded and he plummeted down, crushing a row of courtyard walls below, landing in front of a group of Cuiyan Mountain Villa Protectors and servants who were still in shock, not understanding what had happened!

A strike of Evil-Breaking!
