Chapter Five Hundred and Forty-Seven: The Evil Light Taoist,
den within you!"The Blood Eagle sneered and added, “But… what I just did was just a casual move. Yun Hao, you still can’t change anything!”Just then.A clear and ringing clang of a sword echoed behind...The southern area of the imperial city.
From the Burial Demon Mountains comes Yingyang, leading a host of monsters to guard this place.
Yun Hao brought Xia Xuan to the southern area of the city.
One could only see countless demonic beasts, huddled in the streets, on rooftops, and soaring through the skies.
A giant python suddenly burst out, its mouth wide open, ready to swallow Yun Hao and Xia Xuan who had stumbled into its path!
Suddenly, a golden light descended from the sky.
It was the Eagle Yang, who had briefly possessed the battle strength of a high-ranked ground warrior, that dove down from the sky.
Yáng's golden claws struck the giant python directly, piercing through its tough scales. With a flick of its wrist, it sent the python flying into the distance.
This Iron Claw Golden Eagle Tribe's eagle king was never here to help Qin Lie and the others from the start.
But it's here to help Yunhao.
The reason why she appeared before Qin Lie was because she had received permission from Yun Hao and played a hand of setting a trap.
Eagle-Yang immediately transformed into human form, standing before Yun Hao and respectfully bowed. “Greetings, Master.”
Next, he bowed to Peng Guang who was perched on top of the wildcat's head: "Greetings, Master!"
Pengguang was too lazy to pay attention, he didn't react at all, and continued to squat on the top of Aohuao's head, silently running his cultivation technique.
Yun Hao nodded and said, "Qin Lie from Tianshan Villa, what did he ask you to do"
Eagle Yang immediately recounted the situation.
Yun Hao hummed in response and said, "Remember, keep the demon horde in check, and do not allow them to run rampant and slaughter innocent humans within the imperial city."
"Yes!"
After Yingyang had submitted, he asked, "Master, what should I do now"
Yun Hao: "Bring the people from outside into the imperial city. Wait for my signal and be ready to attack the palace at any time!"
Then, Yunhao continued to lead Xiaxuan, Huangmao, and Pengguang towards the formation base hidden in the southern region of the city.
………
An ordinary, unremarkable alley.
Extremely quiet.
It seems that the entire palace's chaos has nothing to do with this alley.
At the deepest part of the alley, a small courtyard was illuminated by a faint candlelight. An old man in a Taoist robe sat in the courtyard.
The old man had white hair and a white beard, looking like a fairy with an ethereal air. He seemed to be above the world, a recluse who was detached from worldly affairs.
Around him, however, were several young women in sheer long gowns, each twisting their waists to attend to the old man.
"Crack..."
Suddenly, a young woman's bowl and chopsticks slipped from her hand and fell to the ground.
The woman was immediately frightened and knelt beside the old man.
"Master, please forgive me… Master, please forgive me… This servant will definitely be more careful from now on… I will definitely, definitely not let this happen again…"
The old man's hand gripped the woman's chin, a peaceful smile on his face as he said, "There certainly won't be a next time. This old Daoist never gives people a second chance to make the same mistake!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the hand gripping the woman's chin tightened suddenly with force.
Click!
The old man twisted the woman's head clean off.
Blood splattered all over him.
Feeling the warmth of the fresh blood, the elder beamed with delight. “What are you all standing around for Take it to the kitchen while it’s still fresh!”
The remaining maidservants, each with a frightened expression, dared not speak out of turn. They carefully approached and carried the body away to the back kitchen.
The old man picked up a silk scarf and wiped the blood from his body. Suddenly, he frowned and looked towards the entrance of the courtyard.
"This old man doesn't like to be disturbed. Since this old man is in a good mood today, I can give you a choice: would you rather be dismembered and die or have your head twisted off"
Although this kitty loves peace and dislikes fighting, for some reason, it really wants to kill you, this disgusting old geezer!" the plump stray cat said.
Pengguang, perched on the head of Huochao, flapped his wings and soared into the air. The sword feather at his brow flashed with a sharp edge as he declared, “I may not be able to defeat this old thing, but I want to try. On the path of cultivation, one should meet challenges head-on and strive for improvement!”
Xia Xuan's face was full of disgust as she said, "Young master, this old thing is called the Evil Light Daoist. A thousand years ago, he committed countless sins and was imprisoned in a death row. It seems that Xia Xun Dao, that old bastard, let him out to help guard the imperial city's main formation!"
Xia Xuan's true origins were exposed.
The old Daoist, Xie Guang, was instantly struck with astonishment.
His identity from a thousand years ago had long been erased by Xia Xun Dao, leaving no trace. Logically speaking, only Xia Xun Dao in the entire ancient Xia country would know about his past.
"Little girl, who are you How do you know all these secrets"
"Whoosh!"
The next moment, Xia Xuan unsheathed his sword, the blade pointed directly at the Evil Light Taoist.
“Red...Red Azure Sword…How could the Divine Sword of the Dàxiá Imperial Family, lost for centuries, be in your hands You…you are a descendant of the Dàxiá Imperial Family, and even more so, the rightful heir to the throne…This is impossible, all of that bloodline is dead…Who exactly are you!”
The Evil-Eyed Daoist saw the Scarlet Azure Sword, and his face became incredibly complex and colorful!
Xia Xuan let out a cold snort and roared angrily, "Evil Light Daoist, a thousand years ago, it was I who ordered your capture and imprisonment in the death cell. Since you haven't died, then today, a thousand years later, I will definitely take your dog life!"
As they were speaking, a layer of illusion vanished from Xia Xuan's body, revealing her true appearance.
Xieguang Laodao's face showed shock, followed by a sinister smile. "As expected, it's you. I didn't expect that you're still alive."
Just so, a thousand years' old debt. This venerable one can finally settle accounts with you.
"tsk tsk tsk, you were born with such a charming figure, even more alluring than those from a thousand years ago. This old man will definitely savor the taste of the legitimate Xia Emperor of Great Summer later, hahaha!"
"Dead!"
Xia Xuan uttered a soft sound, and in an instant, she took a step forward. In the blink of an eye, her nine-tailed celestial fox form erupted, with dreamy and illusory light flickering. Nine beautiful tails swayed gracefully, and a powerful illusion slammed onto Lao Dao's body.
As Xia Xuan's Chi Cang Sword was about to pierce the body of the Ethereal Light Old Daoist, the Ethereal Light Old Daoist suddenly let out a cold snort, and a whisk appeared in his hand.
A light dusting of dust.
"Clang!"
Xia Xuan, along with her sword, was directly flung away.
A thousand-year-old artifact, capable of being entrusted to Xia Xindao's care for guarding the imperial city's main formation base, naturally signifies that this evil-light old Daoist possesses considerable ability.
His cultivation base had clearly reached the seventh level of the Dharma Phase realm!
"Don't overreach!"
Xieguang Laodao let out a sneer, then shot forward in pursuit of Xia Xuan.
Meow!
Suddenly, the wildcat unleashed its divine power and dreamt for a thousand years!
The Evil-Eyed Taoist was startled.
Xiaoxuan, stabilizing her form, once again cast the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox Dharma Form, activating her illusionary power to unleash a burst of energy!
"Whoosh!"
Pengguang directly wielded the Tianpeng Jiandian he had only managed to barely learn, golden sword feathers on his head shooting out and slashing towards the head of the wicked old Daoist, Xieguang!
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a surge of immense and powerful energy erupted from Xie Guang Dao's body.
A terrifying apparition of a ghostly phantasm materialized, shattering the millennium-old divine powers of the Stray Cat and Xia Xuan's illusionary abilities. It even froze Peng Guang's sword feathers in mid-air!
The Evil Light Taoist's face was full of disdain, and he burst into laughter: "Hahaha, a group of trash dare to find trouble with this old Daoist priest You are all..."
Before he could even utter the pathetic word "strike," his voice abruptly ceased.
A razor-sharp blade protruded from his gaping maw.
The next moment,
The sword was sheathed.
The Evil Light Daoist turned with difficulty, his face full of unwillingness...
He never would have imagined... that he would die at the hands of this young man who had been silent since his appearance...
He also couldn't figure out, when did this guy sneak up behind him
"Bang!"
The corpse of the sinister old Taoist lay at Yun Hao's feet.s set of Dharma transmissions.Yun Hao's voice once again echoed in his mind."How much do you know about the Grand Master"This is one of Yun Hao's most important concerns, even more so than preventing...
