Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!

If others do not offend me, I will not offend them; if others offend me, I shall kill!

There's nothing to be said about it.

The Bai Family had attacked her repeatedly and laid traps to lure her in. Now, trailing behind Chen Pingping, even if she were as merciful as a saint, she could not let the Bai Family off the hook.

The Five Elements Swordsmanship was executed in rapid succession, instantly expanding and transforming, like five giant dragons roaring and hurling themselves forward.

This scene shocked everyone present.

The formerly petite figure now seemed as imposing as Mount Tai, pressing down upon everyone's hearts.

A Divine King? No! She was merely a powerhouse of King Tao.

As her eyes opened and closed, cold as frost, layers upon layers of Sword Mountain crumbled within that small world.

She was evolving.

The Demon Emperor was getting serious.

"Harming me is one thing, but attacking my senior brother means death!" Cold brilliance struck one after another, slicing in from different directions, and swiftly ended all the Bai Family powerhouses.

Along with the screams, the blood, and the bones, everything was engulfed by the terrible power of the Sword Dao.

After a long, long while...

A gentle breeze blew, dust stirred, and only then did the massacre come to an end. More than a dozen Bai Family powerhouses, turned into indistinct flesh and blood, remained on Long Street.

The air was filled with a pungent smell of blood and a suffocating killing intention.

The small figure stood quietly still, her gaze calm as if the recent slaughter had nothing to do with her.

She looked in a certain direction, toward where Murong Hua was. Although she did not speak, everyone felt that invisible provocation.

Following her gaze, many people saw Murong Hua, a powerful Divine King.

Cultivators took a sharp intake of breath.

Liu Yuhui's voice trembled, "Senior Brother!"

Zhou Boyi shook his head silently; he had done all he could.

"This girl... really wants to settle scores with Chong Tower?" Zhou Yunchang swallowed. "Isn't she too bold?"

The Bai Family and Chong Tower were not forces of the same caliber.

The latter was on par with the Martial God Academy and the holy lands; it was already fortunate that Chong Tower didn't trouble her.

Shangguan Qingqing said, "She's even more arrogant than her senior brother."

Chen Pingping had no choice but to take action for the sake of Princess Zi Ji's cultivation, blocking all formidable enemies. Guang Xiaoyu, however, was just being haughty, picking fights on her own initiative.

"This senior hasn't made a move in a very long time. She is courting death."

"Not necessarily. We said the same thing when she was facing the Bai Family earlier..."

"..."

How could it be the same?

A group of Bai Family powerhouses had already been severely injured beforehand, and their strength had not broken through to the Realm of Divine King.

Murong Hua, however, was a genuine Divine King, a killer revealed to the world.

It could also be understood this way: he represented Chong Tower in the human realm, every action shaded with the influence of Chong Tower.

If Guang Xiaoyu truly killed Murong Hua, her name would spread throughout the Central Continent the next day.

Unfortunately, the two were not adversaries of the same level.

If she dared to strike, she was bound to die.

Time passed...

Guang Xiaoyu seemed to have no intention of taking action, remaining quiet all along.

On Murong Hua's side, there was also no movement. He seemed to be weighing something, or perhaps dreading something, recalling the "Demon cultivators" mentioned by the killer.

"Senior Brother, she..." Liu Yuhui hesitated.

"She must be considering how to attract everyone's attention to herself, to shift their gaze," Zhou Boyi remarked, his eyes widening.

"Why?"

"The Yuan World!" Zhou Boyi uttered three words.

Chen Pingping and Zi Ji hadn't gone far. Instead, they were using the Yuan World to hide nearby, and many had probably already guessed as much.

So, they were waiting.

Liu Yuhui looked puzzled.

Zhou Boyi added, "You don't understand."

Rumor had it that the Yuan World was a Divine Weapon fallen from the end of the Heavenly Road. Its existence was profoundly significant, related to that path and the gods at its end.

To acquire it would undoubtedly be taking a shortcut on the path to the Heavenly Road.

How could numerous young talents possibly give up on it?

Now that Chen Pingping had suffered a heavy blow, this was a very good opportunity.

The only thing Zhou Boyi couldn't understand was how Princess Zi Ji, having just begun her cultivation, could possibly open the Yuan World.

And the longer it took, the more the geniuses became worried.

"Being clever is one thing, but power is another. She alone cannot hold off so many powerful enemies," Zhou Yunchang also chimed in.

"You could?" Shangguan Qingqing rolled her eyes.

"Not right now, but who knows about later," Zhou Yunchang retorted. "Also, a great battle is about to erupt here. I suggest you leave quickly."

On Long Street, the once subdued killing intention was rippling once again.

It had nothing to do with the cultivators.

The ripples were not of killing intent, but of another kind of power, qi...

It became more and more pronounced. Perhaps before long, the power of the Yuan World would be completely shattered, and the figures of Chen Pingping and Zi Ji would reappear here.

When that time came, it would be the moment the great battle began.

They were waiting.

Guang Xiaoyu became increasingly anxious, yet there was nothing she could do. She was merely a King Tao powerhouse now, still far from invincible.

Once the hidden world collapsed, she might not be able to face so many powerful enemies.

WOOF WOOF!

Hei barked at her a few times, as if to comfort her.

WHOOSH!

Suddenly, a black arrow pierced the sky with the speed of lightning, penetrating Guang Xiaoyu's body and sending her flying.

Someone had made a move.

It was the harbinger...

Black miasma continuously spewed forth, enveloping his entire figure. This time, even his face was obscured.

He approached from another side, bow in hand. After shooting Guang Xiaoyu with an arrow, he drew his bow again.

WHOOSH! A black arrow shot towards Long Street, stirring up ripples. Eerily, this arrow then disappeared.

"Bastard! Don't you dare attack," Guang Xiaoyu shouted angrily. "You're asking for death!"

The fluctuations of qi became more and more apparent.

She was very anxious.

But the harbinger was too strong.

The arrow he shot out firmly suppressed her body, even preventing her cultivation realm from functioning.

Damn it!

Guang Xiaoyu's face turned ashen.

...

"Senior Brother, you must wake up quickly! I can't hold on any longer," Zi Ji cried out, her voice choked with sobs. "They're attacking... The consumption of the Yuan World is huge! What should I do?"

Mao Qiu was as calm as ever.

Earth Chicken paced nearby, seemingly measuring something.

Lao Huang quietly stood guard to one side.

WHOOSH!

Above the Yuan World, a path suddenly appeared.

It was resplendent and dazzling.

A figure cloaked in Divine Brilliance stepped down from that path, supremely divine and peaceful.

Zi Ji lifted her head. "Who are you?"

"A God!"

"You're lying! There are no gods in this world," Zi Ji said in disbelief. "Who are you really?"

"Don't you remember me?" The self-proclaimed god let out a hint of a smile. "My princess..."

Zi Ji stiffened, sensing a dangerous fluctuation.

When I stepped into cultivation, I seemed to have seen this person before. The Power of Curse erupted, catastrophe descended, and he was above, wielding the Power of Destruction. A god? Does this world truly have gods? If he is a god, then why would he attack me? Wait! This self-proclaimed god, he knows me.

"You've died eight times. This is the ninth. I've been waiting for you since I built the Heavenly Road. But sadly... you've been unlucky, perishing every time," the newcomer chuckled. "This time... I will personally take action to completely sever your Divine Soul, cutting off all your paths to reincarnation."

"You're from the Netherworld?" Zi Ji's breath quickened.
