The dark figure was shrouded in a thick fog, its swirling, chilling battle aura fluctuating wildly, appearing extremely unstable.
"Crimson Flame? So it's you..."
A hoarse voice came from the dark figure, sending a chill down one's spine.
This book was first published on Taiwan Novel Network, offering a great reading experience with error-free and orderly chapters.
Looking up at the cave that had imprisoned him for countless years, Youmingzi let out a hoarse laugh.
"That old hag Hua Yu, even in her dying moments she wanted to drag me down with her, hahaha, but I'm still alive, that's fate!"
With that, a chilling battle aura swirled around him, absorbing the vast energy of heaven and earth to nourish his heavily injured body.
Meanwhile, Hua He was utterly terrified.
She had never imagined that such a demon would be sealed within the cave where the former sect leader had lived in seclusion!
"No, I must warn the sect!"
Although she wanted to kill Yun Yun, she didn't want to destroy the Hua Sect.
This Crimson Flame Evil Lord had only intended to use her to release this demon from the beginning, never intending to help them seize the sect leader's position!
Realizing this, Hua He was filled with immense regret.
Fortunately, however, she still had a chance to make amends…
With that thought, Hua He silently released a flower petal from her hand, rushing out of the cave with lightning speed.
But...
"Hehe, I was prepared for this!"
The Crimson Flame Evil Lord, already prepared, instantly froze the space within a few thousand meters of the cave.
"Sect Master, you must be weak from just coming out. This is a little snack I brought for you, please enjoy!"
After controlling Hua Hu, the Crimson Flame Evil Lord said to You Mingzi with a smile.
Hearing the Crimson Flame Evil Lord's words, Hua Hu's eyes immediately showed terror.
She wouldn't be afraid of being killed like this, but being devoured by such a demon was worse than death!
"I'll fight you to the death!"
With a fierce resolve, Hua Hu instantly unleashed all the battle qi within her, directly detonating her battle qi crystal...
Just look at the commotion caused by the self-destruction of a three-star Dou Zun to see how powerful it was.
The entire cave was ripped apart by the terrifying explosion, even snapping the mountain in half!
This was a shock not only to the Crimson Flame Evil Lord, but also to the newly unsealed Netherworld Child…
Having been sealed for so many years, his strength was already reduced to a mere fraction. Before he could recover, this explosion struck…
If this old ghost hadn't been a genuine Dou Sheng, he probably wouldn't even be left with ashes.
After the explosion, a disheveled Crimson Flame Evil Lord appeared in the dust.
Although disheveled, he wasn't seriously injured.
However, having caused such a commotion, if the Flower Sect didn't react in time, they would truly be blind.
"Damn woman!"
Cursing, Crimson Flame Evil Lord hurriedly said to Netherworld Prince, "Sect Master, let's leave here quickly, otherwise it'll be troublesome when the new Sect Master of the Flower Sect arrives!"
Looking down at the kneeling Crimson Flame Evil Lord, Netherworld Prince's lips curled into a chillingly wicked smile beneath his black robe. "Crimson Flame, you've done well. This Saint will reward you handsomely." With
that, Netherworld Prince pointed a finger, unleashing a torrent of icy battle qi that instantly froze the pleased Crimson Flame Evil Lord into an ice cube…
Even now, the Crimson Flame Evil Lord's face still showed an expression of disbelief, wondering why the old sect master he had gone to so much trouble to rescue would attack him.
"Useless! You can't even handle this simple matter. For you, the best reward is only to become my healing offering!"
With that, the Crimson Flame Evil Lord's entire body exploded into a cloud of blood mist, and Youmingzi opened his mouth and sucked the Crimson Flame Evil Lord's flesh and blood into his mouth.
With the Crimson Flame Evil Lord's flesh and blood to heal his wounds, Youmingzi's declining aura stabilized slightly.
Although he was still far from the strength of a one-star Dou Sheng at his peak, with his current nine-star Dou Zun strength, facing the Flower Sect without Hua Yu, it was just a sect that could be wiped out with a wave of his hand.
Yes, that's what Youmingzi thought.
But as the saying goes...
My lord, times have changed!
"Who dares to trespass on my Flower Sect!"
A clear and loud shout rang out, and a figure appeared on the top of Duanfeng, standing in mid-air.
A long, lake-green dress clung to her perfect figure, her long, flowing black hair billowing in the wind.
Even Youmingzi, an ancient monster who had lived for countless years, couldn't help but be momentarily stunned by such ethereal beauty.
Youmingzi lifted his leg, took a step forward, and appeared in mid-air, his hands behind his back, a black robe obscuring his face, and a chilling battle aura surging around him like a tidal wave.
"I am Youmingzi, the Sect Master of the Heavenly Nether Sect! Junior, kneel before me!"
These words caused Yun Yun's delicate brows to furrow. Looking at this guy who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, she looked at him as if he were a fool.
However, the overwhelming aura surrounding him did indeed frighten her.
"A Battle Saint?"
"No, that's not right! This aura is so weak, it can't possibly be a Battle Saint!"
Let alone a Battle Saint, even either of the two Qinghua Fairies from the Flower Sect felt stronger to Yun Yun than this Youmingzi.
This discovery immediately relieved Yun Yun.
As long as it wasn't a true Saint descending, she had nothing to fear.
Seeing Yun Yun's reaction, You Mingzi felt a surge of anger. He snorted coldly, and his chilling battle aura condensed into a giant hand, pressing down on Yun Yun, attempting to force her to kneel.
Yun Yun, equally unyielding, conjured a cyan longsword in her hand and slashed at the giant hand.
The longsword, wreathed in sharp wind blades, easily cleaved the giant hand of chilling battle aura in two.
Even in their first exchange, Yun Yun sensed the opponent's immense strength.
Although calling him a Battle Saint was a bit of an exaggeration, the fact that he could exert such immense pressure solely through battle aura without even lifting a finger was unprecedented for Yun Yun, and she had never encountered such a formidable enemy before.
"Very well! You dare to draw your sword against me... It seems that Hua Yu has found someone with backbone. However, I hate women who dare to disobey me the most!"
A chilling killing intent filled the heavens and earth, and You Mingzi's voice was exceptionally cold.
Disobey, or die!
Nine Netherworld Hand!
He unleashed a powerful fighting technique of this level right from the start.
However, for You Mingzi, a former Battle Saint, the Nine Netherworld Hand was merely an ordinary tactic he used against his enemies.
As that voice, seemingly emanating from the depths of hell, rang out, a pitch-black hand, like a ghostly claw, pierced through space and flashed towards Yun Yun's head.
Sensing the chilling aura emanating from the pitch-black hand, Yun Yun was surprised but not afraid. Instantly, she activated the power of her bloodline, and the azure teardrop rune on her forehead shone brightly. Countless wind forces gathered in the heavens and earth, instantly condensing into a wind talisman the size of a palm, which then also traversed layers of space, striking the pitch-black ghostly claw!
