Chapter 238 - One Sword Covering the Sky, Defying the Heavens! (2)
In a battlefield shrouded in blood mist and storms of daoist spells, Yun Xiao didn't need to explain who she was; most couldn't even see her.
BUZZ! A streak of blood light shot across the battlefield, appearing beside Yun Xiao. With black hair and red eyes, a devilish figure, and slender, shapely legs, topped with exquisite blood dragon horns, she merged flawlessly with the battlefield. A devil, indeed, born for battle!
"The War Princess..." Forbidden Fate finally saw her again. "I treated you with respect, and yet you harbored betrayal. Is this the measure of a devil?"
What was once a new friend had now become an obstacle.
The War Princess felt helpless; she had indeed been a friend to Forbidden Fate, but Yun Xiao had forced her hand to betray it. The pretense had become reality.
"There's nothing left to say. You've come to this point where even the Endless Netherworld would kill you. A rogue corpse demon is a threat to all life," the War Princess said coldly.
"Hee hee hee... Is that the justification of an invader?" Forbidden Fate sneered. "In the end, you're the invader, bringing real suffering to the Divine and Demon Continents! It's a pity these two young ones, human and demon, can't see through it all. They think I'm the biggest threat. I am the one who truly loves this land..."
He was referring to Yun Xiao and Moon Fairy.
"Stop your nonsense. You may love the land, but you have no love for life," Yun Xiao said, gripping the Heaven Burial Sword Soul. Turning to the War Princess, he added, "Find a chance to drain his blood, refine him into Mortal Dust Devil Blood. You'll ascend in power."
"What..." The War Princess trembled, incredulous. She shook her head. "No! That's demon and corpse blood. Do you know how foul it is?"
What she craved was fresh human blood, the preference of the nobility in the Endless Netherworld.
"Are you still concerned about taste at this time?" Yun Xiao frowned.
"Of course. Don't push me!" The War Princess bit her lip.
SMACK! Yun Xiao's hand struck her face, leaving a startling handprint on her delicate cheek.
"You!" The War Princess covered her face, shocked, her eyes reddening.
"Don't think you're so important. The Endless Netherworld has plenty like you! If you won't obey, others will. Don't talk to me about dignity or taste. Do as you're told, or this sword will turn you into nothing but bones," Yun Xiao said coldly.
The War Princess stared at him, tears brimming in her eyes.
"You're a madman!" She trembled, looking at the mountain of flesh and blood, her stomach churning.
"You better be one, too." Yun Xiao left her with those words and faced Forbidden Fate.
That slap stung, wiping away any flirtation that had been on the sword. For a moment, she had been proud of her beauty and form, thinking such assets would earn her some indulgence from Yun Xiao. But it seemed she had thought too much. The searing pain on her face made it clear; every word he had spoken to her before was no joke. Dignity or glory—she couldn't have both.
"Mortal Dust Devil Blood..." She looked down, seeing the terrifying blood flowing within her—hers, yet not hers. Her power depended on her obedience!
Devils, inherently proud, viewed humans as delicacies and demons as livestock. As a princess of the Endless Netherworld, she inherently disdained all beings of both races, including Yun Xiao and Moon Fairy.
She had even felt a smug pride, believing that no matter how formidable, these lower beings would instinctively crave the nobility of a female devil. That slap shattered her dreams of devilish royalty! She dared not test whether Yun Xiao would really kill her. If that sword did strike, she wouldn't even have a chance to regret.
The power of the Mortal Dust Devil Blood had already captivated her! She no longer wanted to die. She wanted to live, return to the Endless Netherworld, and reclaim everything that was hers!
"Even the most noble devil must bow to reality. So, I'll give it my all!" The War Princess's eyes reddened, the image of that white figure etched deeply in her heart.
BUZZ! She transformed into a streak of blood light, following Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao didn't look back, but he was satisfied with her sensibility.
HUM! The Heaven Burial Sword Soul trembled, pointing towards Forbidden Fate!
Forbidden Fate, with his many eyes, watched them in bewilderment. What just happened? Yun Xiao had slapped the War Princess. And the War Princess, tears in her eyes, covering her face in grievance? Like a wronged wife? Even for the all-seeing him, the scene was baffling...
But Forbidden Fate had no time to ponder, as Yun Xiao, the War Princess, and the relentlessly tormenting Moon Fairy inside him—human, devil, and demon—were already upon him!
Yun Xiao, with Heaven Burial Sword Soul in hand, clashed head-on with Forbidden Fate and his myriad corpse blood tendrils on the battlefield!
Moon Fairy was within, War Princess by the side!
Empowered by 40,000 Sword Hearts, Yun Xiao, backed by his Mid Saint Realm cultivation, had a killing power against Forbidden Fate surpassing even the War Princess.
"Let's end this in one strike!" Yun Xiao, eyes fixed on the Demon Emperor, furiously channeled the power of the 40,000 Sword Hearts, preparing to unleash all the ancestral strength in one devastating blow!
With his own Primordial Void sacred power, the Heaven Burial Sword Soul whipped up a dark azure storm again!
BOOM BOOM BOOM! Wherever the storm passed, demons blocking the way were instantly reduced to blood and ashes!
PUFF PUFF PUFF! Tentacles lashed out, only to be shredded into fragments by Yun Xiao's sword!
In terms of offensive power, Sword Cultivators were undoubtedly the strongest. They never sought balance, only offense! His sword blazed a trail of burning corpse blood!
Where the Heaven Burial Sword Soul passed, Forbidden Fate's remains were incinerated! With a flash of the sword, Yun Xiao was already face to face with Forbidden Fate!
Inside Forbidden Fate, Moon Fairy, now numb to the stench of decay, as a Three-Tailed Demon Fox, tore countless bloody holes in him. Though not fatal, it caused immense discomfort!
Forbidden Fate was enraged!
BOOM BOOM BOOM! His body trembled, condensing myriad demon mists into one, a fierce rune emerging from his chest, shooting a beam of corpse blood light towards Yun Xiao!
"Too slow!" Yun Xiao swerved his Sovereign Sword, effortlessly dodging the demonic rune with Fleeting Moon!
Forbidden Fate's strength was his undying nature, deadly to ordinary beings. But against Yun Xiao, it was merely a nuisance!
"Ignorant boy!" Forbidden Fate sneered, his chest ripping open to form a massive gaping maw! Just like how he swallowed Moon Fairy, he opened his mouth to engulf Yun Xiao!
This sight, seen by a few, sent shockwaves through the Heavenly Realm! The mouth was enormous! So big it blotted out the sky, leaving nowhere to hide! But did Yun Xiao really want to escape?
"I've been waiting for you!" The moment Yun Xiao was swallowed, Moon Fairy burst through, creating a bloody path and crashing into him!
