Chapter 494 Demonic Body is Completed, Uninvited Guests Arrive

As Gu Yun's voice faded, the anomaly above the Hundred Flowers Pool suddenly intensified!

The originally dazzling seven-colored light was as if gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand, compressing wildly inward, then bursting forth with a roar.

But what erupted was not the anticipated pure and flawless immortal light, but a deep, demonic, ultimate dark-purple devil light that seemed to devour all light!

A cold, noble, demonic aura, carrying supreme majesty and fatal temptation, shot into the sky, instantly sweeping through the entire valley, even overpowering the lingering afterglow of Liu Yunfeng's Quasi-Emperor Realm pressure!

"This… this is demonic energy?!"

"Her Highness, the Saintess… how could this be?!"

The Hundred Flowers Holy Land disciples, still shaken from the recent battle, were once again stunned by this sudden dramatic change!

"Hahahahaha, a born devil, a born devil! You foolish people, you cannot stop any of this from happening!"

A few surviving cultivators of the Demonic Sect in the field now let out hysterical laughter.

"Noisy!"

Liu Yunfeng frowned, swept her sword, and instantly silenced all of them completely.

She looked towards the center of the Hundred Flowers Pool, her aura surging, the Falling Petal Sword appearing in her hand, her expression solemn.

Feng Yunyun slowly floated up, her graceful body wrapped in a light-green gauze dress, yet surrounded by incredibly pure dark-purple demonic energy.

Her face was still exquisitely beautiful, but countless enchanting and seductive elements were added, and a faint purple devil mark between her brows made her appear even more mysterious.

What was most unsettling were her eyes—they had transformed into two bottomless, dark purple whirlpools. As her gaze shifted, it was soul-stirring, yet carried the coldness and indifference of looking down upon all living beings.

The Mandarava Devil Body, fully achieved!

"Devil… Devil Body?!"

Liu Yunfeng was also stunned. She could feel the powerful energy within Feng Yunyun, distinctly different from the Hundred Flowers Holy Dao, but that power was pure and stable, without any hint of violence or evil. Instead, it perfectly integrated with Feng Yunyun, even… making her feel a subtle, hidden pressure!

This was by no means an ordinary demonization!

"Great Elder… this…"

An Elder looked worriedly at Liu Yunfeng, awaiting instructions.

"Great Elder, the Saintess has become demonized, we should cleanse the sect!"

There were also Elders who spoke righteously, unable to tolerate any speck of dust in their eyes.

"Silence!"

Liu Yunfeng raised her hand to stop her, looking at Feng Yunyun with a complex gaze.

She instantly understood that this was again her husband's doing!

Only he could create such an astonishing sight.

But… what exactly did he want to do?

"My husband, oh my husband, you truly make things difficult for me."

Liu Yunfeng smiled bitterly in her heart. The Hundred Flowers Holy Land prided itself on being a righteous sect, but now a Saintess with a Devil Body had emerged. Once this matter spread, it would undoubtedly cause a huge stir.

On one hand, she felt some resistance to this matter, but on the other hand, from a selfish perspective, Liu Yunfeng also believed that Gu Yun would not do anything to harm the Hundred Flowers Holy Land.

"Nothing is yet concluded. Everyone, do not forget that Her Highness, the Saintess, was brought here by His Highness, the Emperor Child!"

His Highness, the Emperor Child.

Only a few welcoming disciples and Liu Yunfeng herself knew of Gu Yun's arrival; most of the other Elders were in seclusion for a long time, naturally unaware.

Now, Liu Yunfeng's words were indeed a wake-up call.

The woman before them was not an ordinary disciple that they could dispose of at will, but rather… that one's… The appearance of this thought was like a bucket of cold water poured over them, instantly calming down the indignant Elders who were shouting to "cleanse the sect," their faces turning a mix of green and pale.

Yes, how could they have forgotten this detail!

Feng Yunyun was personally sent by that Gu Family Emperor Child, who specifically requested that the Hundred Flowers Holy Land cultivate her with all their might!

Since she was His Highness, the Emperor Child's person, what did it matter if she awakened some Devil Body?

Even if she truly was a devil, everything would still depend on Gu Yun's face.

Now, with His Highness, the Emperor Child's attitude unclear, offending Feng Yunyun would be slapping His Highness, the Emperor Child's face!

At the thought of that unfathomable Emperor Child with a heaven-defying background, all the Elders couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on their scalps.

It was hard to say about other members of the Gu Family, but the second son of the Gu Family was well-known.

This Gu Yun, though new to the scene, had already done many astonishing things.

That Emperor Clan Wang Family, its power was far greater than their Hundred Flowers Holy Land.

"Therefore, everyone, do not panic. Everything can be decided once His Highness, the Emperor Child, arrives!"

Liu Yunfeng took in everyone's reactions, secretly sighing in relief.

She struck while the iron was hot, her tone authoritative: "To be frank, the reason I gathered you all here is because I received news from His Highness, the Emperor Child."

"The Demonic Sect intended to disrupt the critical moment of our Saintess's awakening, but now, thanks to His Highness's foresight, their schemes have utterly failed."

"He has always been watching our Hundred Flowers Holy Land. Now that Her Highness, the Saintess, has awakened this kind of physique, it might also be part of his plan, to make those demonic fiends hoist themselves by their own petard!"

Her words were half-true, half-false, both elevating Gu Yun and giving everyone a way to save face.

All the Elders' expressions softened, and they all showed enlightened looks of "so that's it" and "His Highness is brilliant."

"The Great Elder is right! It was we who were too rigid!"

"His Highness, the Emperor Child, plans without fail; this must be a brilliant move against the Demonic Sect!"

"Her Highness, the Saintess, has profound good fortune and has gained His Highness's trust; this is truly a blessing for the Holy Land!"

The tide turned instantly. The Elders who were just now clamoring for a fight were now praising more enthusiastically than anyone.

Liu Yunfeng chuckled inwardly. Her use of this 'tiger skin' was quite skillful.

She wondered if Gu Yun had been observing this matter in secret all along; she would have to claim credit when she returned.

"Hmm, it's good that the Elders understand His Highness's painstaking efforts."

"Since that's the case… then…"

"Wait!"

Feng Yunyun's condition had become increasingly stable, and the surging demonic energy was no longer as wild and overbearing as before.

Liu Yunfeng also intended to let the matter rest, following Gu Yun's instructions to have the Elders retreat and she alone would guard Feng Yunyun until her breakthrough concluded.

But just then, a sharp shout echoed from outside the valley.

"Who goes there?! How dare you trespass into my Hundred Flowers Holy Land!!"

Liu Yunfeng's voice turned cold. She slowly ascended into the air, her Quasi-Emperor Realm pressure once again spreading, her gaze sharply sweeping towards the valley entrance.

"Liu Yunfeng, no wonder you dared to harbor a demonic cultivator; so it was because you broke through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm."

At the valley entrance, space twisted, and several figures forcibly broke through the outer alert formation and intruded.

The leader, dressed in luxurious brocade robes and with an arrogant demeanor, held a multicolored feather fan shimmering with light. Behind him followed several fierce-looking guards with sharp eyes, among whom was a profound-aura elder, who was actually a Two-Heaven Realm expert!

"If I hadn't spent a great deal this time to invite Senior Xuan Yizi, I might not have been able to take you down."

//495//

Chapter 495 Encirclement and Suppression

Xuan Yizi's lips curled into a barely perceptible, smug smile upon hearing this. He took a timely step forward, releasing a Quasi-Emperor Realm pressure even stronger than Liu Yunfeng's.

"Little girl, don't think you can do as you please just because you've broken through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm!"

"I, Xuan Yizi, will not tolerate any sand in my eye!"

Liu Yunfeng's gaze, sharp as a sword, locked onto the arrogant young man holding a five-colored feather fan: "Yu Lingfeng, is your Great Yan Holy Land trying to start a war with my Hundred Flowers Holy Land?!"

The other elders of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land around them also became indignant.

The Myriad Spirit Dao Domain is a vast Dao Domain, extensive in territory, rich in spiritual energy, and very far from the jurisdiction of various major powers.

It is precisely because of this that countless powerful forces have carved out territories on this land, mutually checking each other and maintaining a delicate balance.

The Great Yan Holy Land and the Hundred Flowers Holy Land are among them, but compared to the Hundred Flowers Holy Land, the Great Yan Holy Land has a more profound foundation.

Now, with such a large-scale mobilization, it would naturally be a catastrophe for the Hundred Flowers Holy Land.

These elders naturally would not agree, and the suppressed momentum on their bodies began to surge again, but due to heavy losses from the battle with the Demonic Cult, several elders' old injuries were triggered, forcing them to fall from high in the sky to recover.

Seeing this, Yu Lingfeng couldn't help but sneer: "Liu Yunfeng, your Hundred Flowers Holy Land harbors someone with a demonic physique and even instated her as a Saintess; I witnessed all of this myself. Demonic cultivators, everyone in the Three Thousand Dao Domains should execute them!"

"This kind of world-shaking demoness is intolerable to heaven and earth. Today, I, Yu Lingfeng, shall act on behalf of heaven to eliminate this demonic embryo and root of disaster!"

"Liu Yunfeng, if you know what's good for you, step aside obediently, otherwise, don't blame me for settling accounts with your Hundred Flowers Holy Land as well!"

His gaze, greedy and fervent, swept across Feng Yunyun, who was still steadily adjusting her aura in the center of the Hundred Flowers Pool, her body surrounded by demonic charm.

His words were forceful and righteous!

The guards behind him also seemed encouraged and stepped forward.

However, Liu Yunfeng was not intimidated by his few words and calmly said: "Yu Lingfeng, do you think you can annihilate my Hundred Flowers Holy Land with just these people you brought?"

"That's just wishful thinking!"

"Only these people?"

"Hahahaha, hahahahahaha!!!"

Yu Lingfeng laughed incessantly: "Liu Yunfeng, you don't think your actions were flawless, do you!"

"Such an act of burying one's head in the sand only exposes the Hundred Flowers Holy Land's wolfish ambitions to the various major powers!"

"Liu Yunfeng, you have only just entered the Quasi-Emperor Realm, your spiritual senses are clouded, so you naturally cannot perceive those subtle changes in heavenly secrets."

"A few days ago, the demonic energy fluctuations caused by your so-called Saintess had already spread throughout the entire Myriad Spirit Dao Domain!"

"Today, we are probably not the only ones who have come to visit, are we?"

"What?!"

Liu Yunfeng's expression changed slightly. From the anomaly with Feng Yunyun to the current situation, first the Demonic Cult's sudden attack, then Yu Lingfeng's aggressive stance, she had no time to observe her surroundings.

This created a disparity with Yu Lingfeng, who had been lying in wait for a long time, rested and ready.

"Fellow Daoists, since you are all here, why hide?"

Yu Lingfeng's face bore an arrogant smile, as if everything was under his control. He gently fanned himself with the five-colored feather fan and loudly proclaimed: "Do you want to wait for my Great Yan Holy Land to clear the obstacles for you before you come out and take advantage?"

His voice echoed in the valley, and the hearts of Liu Yunfeng and the elders of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land sank to the bottom.

"Hahaha, Daoist Yu truly has excellent methods, to be able to pinpoint the source of this demonic energy before us."

A burst of laughter was the first to ring out. To the east, clouds surged in the sky, and streaks of golden light pierced through the heavens.

A massive golden flying ship arrived, crushing the air. Its hull was engraved with profound star Dao patterns, exuding a vast and majestic aura.

Several people stood at the bow of the ship, led by a middle-aged man in a star-patterned Daoist robe with an ancient face. He held a whisk and had a profound aura, also a Quasi-Emperor Realm expert!

"It's someone from the Star Pavilion."

An elder of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land exclaimed, her voice very grave.

This was a powerful Daoist lineage from the east of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land, ranking among the top twenty on the Myriad Spirit Dao Domain's power list, even above the Hundred Flowers Holy Land and the Great Yan Holy Land.

The middle-aged man leading them was none other than Star River Daoist, a powerful elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land!

He was at the Quasi-Emperor Realm Second Heaven!

"Senior Star River flatters me; it was merely a coincidence."

Yu Lingfeng cupped his hands slightly towards Star River Daoist, his face showing an even deeper sense of smugness.

Factions within the Great Yan Holy Land were numerous. His purpose in coming to the Hundred Flowers Holy Land was to gain another reliable bargaining chip for his bid for the Sect Master position.

Now, the arrival of forces like the Star Pavilion increased his confidence by several points, so how could he not be happy?

"Such pure demonic energy is truly rare. If allowed to grow, it will surely bring disaster to all living beings."

Another cold voice came. The western sky seemed to be sliced open by a long spear, and an icy chill instantly permeated the air, causing the moisture in the air to instantly condense into countless ice crystals that fell.

A team of disciplined cultivators, clad in ice-blue standard armor, stepped through the air. Each held a profound ice spear that gleamed with cold light, their aura was chilling, and their steps were perfectly synchronized, like a well-trained army.

The leader stood atop a gigantic spear shadow, crystal clear and seemingly carved from ten thousand years of cold ice.

His face was stern, his eyes sharp as an eagle's, and his body exuded an extreme cold spear intent that froze the soul. His pressure had also reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm!

"Cold Spear Army? Is your Ice Wave Imperial Dynasty also getting involved?!"

Liu Yunfeng's expression perfectly shifted to one of extreme displeasure, while inwardly, her reverence for Gu Yun grew even deeper.

Indeed, everything was within her husband's plan; even the arriving forces were completely calculated by him.

What kind of method was this? It was simply unheard of.

"Slaying demons and eradicating evil is our duty!"

"Hundred Flowers Holy Land, do not persist in your delusion!"

The leader was Cang Lanwang, an imperial prince of the Ice Wave Imperial Dynasty with a different surname, and the Cold Spear Army, renowned for its battle achievements, was his elite force.

"How about it, Liu Yunfeng, are you still going to stubbornly resist?"

"With just you, a cultivator at the Quasi-Emperor Realm First Heaven, you cannot stop our iron cavalry charge!"

Yu Lingfeng's smile became even brighter. The Star Pavilion and the Ice Wave Imperial Dynasty were all heavyweight forces, and their arrival gave him extreme confidence.

"Hmph, ridiculous. Do you even know whose person that is inside?"

Liu Yunfeng sneered, the look of panic on her face completely gone, replaced by an expression of mockery.

Yu Lingfeng's expression froze, and he turned to look at Xuan Yizi.

"I have calculated with my divination techniques that the Hundred Flowers Holy Land is destined to be annihilated today!"

Xuan Yizi said calmly.

Yu Lingfeng's mind was slightly eased, and he sneered: "Liu Yunfeng, it's come to this, and you're still trying to bluff?"

///496//

Chapter 496: The Damage Cannot Be Recovered

"Your Hundred Flowers Holy Land has colluded with demonic cultivators and evil beings, and the evidence is irrefutable. Now, our three major forces have arrived to destroy the Hundred Flowers Holy Land and uphold justice!"

Three Quasi-Emperors, plus several Great Saint Realm peak cultivators and numerous elites, had the Hundred Flowers Holy Land completely surrounded.

Yu Lingfeng felt his arrogance reach its peak. His gaze shamelessly lingered on Liu Yunfeng's voluptuous and mature figure, a greedy smile curling on his lips.

"Liu Yunfeng, if you are willing to kneel and beg for mercy now, and voluntarily become a bed-servant for this Holy Son, perhaps if this Holy Son is in a good mood, he can intercede for you with the various Dao friends, leaving a few descendants for your Hundred Flowers Holy Land, so that your lineage doesn't completely die out. How about it?"

These words were extremely insulting. The remaining elders of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land trembled with rage, their eyes bloodshot, wishing they could rush forward immediately and perish with Yu Lingfeng.

"Wishful thinking!"

"Yu Lingfeng, even if this Seat dies today, I will first slay you, this shameless wretch with a mouth full of filth!"

A cold light burst forth from Liu Yunfeng's phoenix eyes, her killing intent almost solidifying.

She gripped her Falling Flower Sword, and her Quasi-Emperor aura surged again. Although facing three Quasi-Emperors put immense pressure on her, her spine remained ramrod straight.

Yu Lingfeng's playful expression suddenly turned cold: "You truly refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit."

He looked at King Canglan beside him.

"Since this Liu Yunfeng is so stubborn, then I don't see any need for this Hundred Flowers Holy Land to continue existing."

"After today, I believe the Imperial Capital of the Ice-Luan Dynasty will have another lively pleasure-den."

"Lingfeng congratulates King Canglan here."

King Canglan's expression remained stern. He glanced indifferently at Yu Lingfeng: "The Ice-Luan Dynasty's purpose in this expedition is only to slay demonic bandits!"

"That's what I wanted to hear. You self-righteous fellow, don't go back on your word later."

"It's all because of the existence of this Hundred Flowers Holy Land that my Star-Sect Pavilion doesn't have many young and beautiful female disciples. What a pity, truly a pity."

Star River Daoist said: "This is simply a monstrous sin. Today, I, Star River Daoist, shall act on behalf of Heaven and completely destroy this Dao lineage that should not exist."

"And return a bright and clear world to the Myriad Spirits Dao Domain!"

"Kill!"

Xuan Yizi waved his hand, and the disciples of the Great Evolution Holy Land immediately swarmed out.

The auras of the powerhouses from the three forces erupted, like a flood about to break its banks. The terrifying pressure made it difficult for everyone in the Hundred Flowers Holy Land to breathe, and a sense of despair spread.

"You're asking for death!!"

Liu Yunfeng showed no weakness and met them head-on.

"Everyone of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land, follow me today, to a bloody battle!!"

"Bloody battle!!"

Almost in unison, everyone had long been infuriated by the sanctimonious hypocrisy of these forces, wishing they could immediately tear apart the ugly faces of these disgusting fellows.

The battle, which had barely subsided, reignited. Only this time, the Hundred Flowers Holy Land seemed to have no hope left.

"You scoundrels taking advantage of the situation!!"

Within the barrier, Leng Huayun was filled with righteous indignation, wishing she could rush out and fight these beasts for three hundred rounds.

Gu Yun pulled her head back, a half-smile on his face: "Miss Leng, you seem a little distracted."

Gu Yun picked her up in one swift motion, taking control with one hand, overlooking the world.

"Hmph! Your woman has awakened a demonic physique and is now hunted by everyone. Yet you still have the leisure to do such things with me here. Truly, your small head is overriding your big one."

"Speaking of which, the helper you prepared for me, you were talking about this Feng Yunyun, right?"

"Given the current situation, what will you do?"

"What to do?"

Gu Yun chuckled softly: "Just a few Quasi-Emperors. If I were to act now, I would only alert the enemy."

"Alert the enemy?"

"Is someone else lurking in the shadows?"

"When did this Hundred Flowers Holy Land become so lively?"

Leng Huayun was quite puzzled for a moment, not understanding why this pure land, which was usually remote and rarely visited, was now coveted by so many forces simultaneously.

"Ah, only Heaven knows."

Gu Yun pointed to the sky, looking nonchalant.

Wherever there were Sons of Destiny, there would be conflict. Who told the Hundred Flowers Holy Land it was a sect composed only of female cultivators? The probability of such a sect giving birth to a Son of Destiny was exceptionally high. See? Su Hao hadn't even been sent off yet, and new leeks had already arrived.

"When will you act? Liu Yunfeng shouldn't be able to hold on. Her breakthrough to Quasi-Emperor should be related to you."

"I'm too lazy to investigate your relationship, but you absolutely cannot stand by and watch them die."

"Act? Do I still need to act?"

"What?! You're not acting?!"

"Are you going to just watch Liu Yunfeng and Feng Yunyun die? No, no, that's not your style."

Leng Huayun's eyes widened like brass bells.

"What? Not even married yet, and you're already worrying about your sisters' safety?"

"I didn't expect you, little demoness, to have such a kind heart."

Gu Yun teased: "Come, let your husband kiss you."

Leng Huayun disgustedly wiped the saliva from her face.

"So dirty, honestly."

"I'm just worried your plan won't succeed, and then you'll take your anger out on me again."

"Alright, since I already have a plan, I won't let any accidents happen."

"Don't forget, your Hundred Flowers Holy Land doesn't just have Yunfeng as a Quasi-Emperor."

"You mean... the Old Ancestor? But the Old Ancestor she..."

"No, no, not the Old Ancestor... Is it, Master?!"

"You little demoness are quite clever, aren't you?"

"Of course. Do you think I'm like you, a scoundrel who only bullies others by relying on power?"

"No, no, Master, isn't she only in the Great Saint Realm? Even if she broke through, she'd only be a Quasi-Emperor First Layer. How can she resolve today's crisis?"

"Who told you your Master only has Great Saint cultivation?"

"If she were that simple, how could I have traveled thousands of miles to your Hundred Flowers Holy Land?"

"Ah, so you were indeed after Master from the very beginning."

"Wrong, I'm after all of you."

"Your Master, you, and also Yunfeng, Shui'er, Huo'er, none of you will escape my grasp!"

"Bastard! Wipe it clean, or next time I'll make you feel the pain."

"Alright, alright, alright~~"

Gu Yun wiped the residue from Leng Huayun's lips, his teasing smile turning three-tenths serious: "However, there's one thing you need to be prepared for."

"In front of the current Han Yan, no matter what disguise you have, it's impossible to hide from her eyes."

"Your master-disciple bond..."

"I understand. From the moment I started cultivating demonic arts, I already had this realization."

Leng Huayun nodded. Things had come to this, and she would no longer hope for anything more.

Although her original intention was for Luo Hanyan, things had already progressed to this point, and she couldn't turn back.

"Don't worry, I'll try to persuade Han Yan. You go to the Demonic Sect first and do something for me. Some things will happen naturally, just wait for time to slowly pass."

"After all, if she can tolerate a great demon like me, how could she not tolerate a little demoness like you?"

Gu Yun smiled, hooking Leng Huayun's chin.

//497//

Chapter 497: Holy Land of Bliss

"Pervert."

Leng Huayun's pretty face was flushed with a rosy hue, but she still reluctantly complied.

Gu Yun's attitude was so overbearing that she wasn't even sure if she was a demonic cultivator or if he was.

However, his words still somewhat calmed her heart. Her Master had actually hidden her strength and was now on the verge of a breakthrough. Good, so good.

As her direct disciple, having spent so many years together day and night, she hadn't noticed a thing.

Yet Gu Yun, an outsider with no prior connection, knew all about it. This man was truly special.

In her leisure, as her peripheral vision caught Gu Yun's handsome profile, Leng Huayun felt her heart flutter as if a little deer was leaping, her body felt slightly warm, and her hands began to become restless.

Just as she was about to reach the peak, her small hand was caught by Gu Yun.

The young man released her tender lips and said with a half-smile, "Are you that impatient?"

"Nonsense, how could I be? It must be some underhanded trick you used."

Leng Huayun quickly withdrew her hand, her cheeks burning, and a blush spread across her fair neck.

Oh dear, Leng Huayun, Leng Huayun, what were you doing just now?

She forced herself to calm down and turned her face away, not daring to look into Gu Yun's eyes that seemed to see through everything.

Gu Yun chuckled softly, his fingertips gently caressing her slightly warm wrist, and the touch made her shiver.

"Wh-what are you going to do?"

"That question should be asked by this Emperor's Son, shouldn't it?"

Gu Yun's tone carried a hint of playfulness: "Don't worry, there will definitely be time to help you later. For now..."

"Calm down."

"The target I've truly been waiting for is about to appear."

"The target you've truly been waiting for?"

Leng Huayun frowned, her gaze turning to the outside world, where the battle was quietly changing.

The allied forces of the three factions, like a surging tide, instantly overwhelmed the remaining defenses of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land.

Although Liu Yunfeng fought with all her might, pushing her Falling Flower Sword Art to its limit, with sword energy petals sweeping like a storm across the sky, she was overwhelmed by the siege of three quasi-Emperors of similar or even greater strength, along with numerous Great Sages.

Boom!

King Canglan's ice spear tore through the rain of flowers, violently striking Liu Yunfeng's protective immortal light, causing her body to tremble violently and a trace of blood to spill from the corner of her mouth.

"Elder Liu, why resist stubbornly?"

Star River Daoist waved his whisk, and points of starlight, heavy as mountains, continuously compressed Liu Yunfeng's movement space.

Xuan Yizi was even more cunning, not rushing to attack, but constantly interfering with the void using profound runes, sealing off Liu Yunfeng's escape routes and rescue paths.

Yu Lingfeng, on the other hand, led his subordinates, laughing wildly as they pounced on the heavily injured or powerless elders of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land, intending to clear these "obstacles" first.

The people of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land could only barely maintain their last line of defense under the protection of the grand formation.

The three factions all had impure intentions. The women of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land were all as beautiful as flowers; these were rare treasures. Now that the opportunity was rare, no one would directly deliver a killing blow. In such a situation of certain victory, even the slightest loss would be regrettable.

Now, only the final step remained.

"Pfft—"

Liu Yunfeng's figure was perfectly timed to fly backward, the fresh blood spewing from her mouth arcing strikingly in the sunlight.

She crashed heavily against the broken light curtain of the grand formation, causing the light curtain to flicker violently, as if it could shatter at any moment.

"Grand Elder!"

The elders of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land cried out in alarm, and despair spread like a plague.

With their backbone injured, their last line of defense was also in jeopardy.

Yu Lingfeng's face revealed a look of ecstasy; victory was in his grasp! He seemed to already see the beautiful future of capturing the demonic women and controlling the Hundred Flowers Holy Land.

He waved his hand grandly, full of vigor: "Charge! Take them down!"

The cultivators of the three factions, like sharks smelling blood, intensified their attacks, and the light of various divine abilities and magical treasures almost submerged the remaining positions of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land.

"Master..."

Leng Huayun's gaze turned towards the depths of the Holy Land, feeling quite anxious. Were Gu Yun's words true? Could her Master really emerge in time?

Just at the moment everyone believed the situation was decided—

An unexpected change occurred!

At the center of the Hundred Flowers Pool, next to Feng Yunyun, who was originally locked by various auras and shrouded in demonic energy, the space rippled in an extremely strange, water-like manner.

"There's another expert?"

Leng Huayun's beautiful eyes flickered, and she secretly glanced at Gu Yun, only to find the young man calm and composed, as if everything had never been beyond his expectations.

"Hmph, what's with the arrogance? It's just knowing a bit more because of family intelligence."

With an inexplicable surge of anger, Leng Huayun stiffened her neck and looked away.

In an instant, to everyone's astonished gazes, several ambiguous pink lights flashed without warning.

The pink lights condensed into the most pliable ribbons, like spiritual snakes with lives of their own, quickly coiling around Yu Jie's waist and wrists.

Yu Jie, who had just recovered from her breakthrough, her pupils constricted, but she was already unable to speak.

"Fellow Daoists, I must thank you for opening a path for me."

At the same time, a woman's laughter, full of extreme temptation and charm, echoed softly through the valley, drilling into everyone's ears, making hearts flutter and blood surge: "Hehehe~ Such a peerless demonic sister, to leave her in the hands of you rough men who only know how to fight and kill, wouldn't that be a waste of heavenly treasures?"

"Why not come with me, elder sister, to the Land of Ultimate Bliss, and together comprehend the true supreme Great Dao?"

This voice seemed to carry magic, instantly making the eyes of some low-level cultivators with unstable minds become hazy, and their movements slowed down.

"Land of Ultimate Bliss?!"

"Presumptuous!"

Yu Lingfeng, Star River Daoist, King Canglan, and other top powerhouses reacted extremely quickly, instantly identifying the sudden interrupter.

Their expressions immediately became incredibly grim!

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it!

They had been fighting tooth and nail here, on the verge of success, yet someone dared to hide so deeply and jump out at this most critical moment to snatch their prize!

Moreover, it was those troublesome demonic people from the Land of Ultimate Bliss!

The Land of Ultimate Bliss was a very special top-tier sect in the Myriad Spirits Dao Domain, both righteous and evil. Its disciples specialized in techniques of Yin-Yang union, charm, and essence-gathering. Their actions were mysterious and unpredictable, and their methods were endless, making them impossible to guard against.

Normally, such a sect should have been eradicated long ago, but its strength was unfathomable, even rumored to have a Great Emperor overseeing it, so very few people were willing to provoke it easily.

But these were all just rumors; no one had ever seen the Great Emperor of the Land of Ultimate Bliss. Therefore, the major forces would absolutely not allow the meat that was about to fall into their mouths to be directly snatched away!

All parties acted in unison, and the chaotic space forced the demonic woman out.

"Hmph, fellow Daoists' welcome ceremony is truly enthusiastic, little sister... I can barely bear it~~"

Accompanied by a captivating, bone-chilling soft laugh, space unfolded like petals layer by layer, and an exquisitely graceful and alluring figure, along with a intoxicatingly rich and exotic fragrance, slowly stepped out of the void.

///498///

Chapter 498 Li Jianqiang (Two in One)

In an instant, almost everyone's gaze was drawn to the woman who suddenly appeared.

Unlike the dignified, pure, and noble demeanor popular among the Three Thousand Dao Domains' fairies, the first impression this woman gave was one of charm, an extreme allure!

She seemed to be born to captivate souls.

Pink mist-like gauze, a graceful figure.

Her features were exquisite, her eyes captivating, and just one glance was enough to make anyone fall into her spell.

"However, all this fighting and killing is quite a spoiler. What if it frightens this incredibly beautiful demonic little sister? That wouldn't be good."

The woman's appearance caused the atmosphere to fall into an eerie silence, as if everything had been paused.

Yu Lingfeng, King Canglan, and others recovered from their daze, their eyes filled with unusual solemnity.

"Miao Yin! You demoness, I can't believe you dare to show yourself!"

King Canglan raised the cold spear in his hand, pointing it directly at her. A terrifying aura of unwavering righteousness suddenly emanated from him. Facing this woman, he dared not be careless in the slightest.

No one knew how strong Miao Yin's battle prowess truly was, but she had indeed slain a Quasi-Emperor Realm expert.

Battles between Quasi-Emperor Realm experts often lasted six or seven days, with endless techniques, continuous magical treasures and divine artifacts, and countless life-saving trump cards. To completely slay one was incredibly difficult.

After all, most of them were old monsters with profound foundations. For these individuals, fighting was secondary; preserving their lives was the top priority.

It was precisely for this reason that while there were many Quasi-Emperor Realm experts in the Three Thousand Dao Domains, only a handful had records of slaying cultivators of the same rank.

This showed Miao Yin's terrifying nature.

Even King Canglan had to treat her seriously.

"Daoist Canglan, why such a temper?"

Miao Yin covered her lips and chuckled, her voice so enchanting it seeped into one's bones, as if carrying tiny hooks that made one's heart itch with unbearable longing.

Her figure swayed, and she had already appeared in front of King Canglan, extending a slender jade finger to touch his chin, smiling sweetly: "Such a beautiful demonic sister, to be slain on the spot by you big men? Isn't that a pity?"

"Why not hand her over to me? I will surely let her experience the true bliss of the world. Perhaps we can even use her unique physique to cultivate special talents for our Three Thousand Dao Domains. Wouldn't that be even better?"

As she spoke, her captivating, soul-snatching eyes stared directly at King Canglan.

The latter's eyelids twitched wildly, feeling his qi and blood churn and his Dao Heart waver.

Many cultivators present were also unsettled by these words, drawing their weapons. Their gazes were fixed on Miao Yin, unable to move away.

"Hmph, you vixen."

"These shameless women from the Paradise Holy Land are indeed all bad news!"

Leng Huayun grumbled discontentedly.

Gu Yun held her and chuckled, "Look at what you're saying. At least she's wearing proper clothes."

"You, on the other hand, are doing these things with me on this battlefield, with a great enemy before us, hidden within some unknown barrier..."

"Bastard! How dare you say that? I'm only like this because you forced me!"

Leng Huayun gritted her teeth in anger, wishing she could bite a piece of flesh off Gu Yun.

This bastard always managed to infuriate her with the most understated words.

"Not bad."

Gu Yun said.

"What did you say?!"

"Nothing?"

"Hmph, you care so much about that demoness. I really misjudged you. You're just like all those other stinky men."

Leng Huayun pouted and turned her face away, unconsciously clenching her pink fists, feeling a lump in her chest.

Don't be angry, don't be angry, anger harms the body, it's not worth getting angry over Gu Yun, that bastard!

She kept trying to persuade herself, but with little effect. She was the one who... yet this guy insisted on paying attention to that shameless demoness.

Seeing her jealous yet trying to maintain composure, the smile in Gu Yun's eyes deepened.

Just a few words, a single glance, was enough to make Leng Huayun's emotions wildly fluctuate.

Combined with the Seven Emotions Tribulation Classic, it contributed three thousand villain points to him.

This was much more convenient and quicker than drawing the hatred of the Children of Destiny. However, spirited female protagonists like Leng Huayun were rare, and he definitely had to seize the opportunity.

"Don't worry, I haven't become so desperate as to be unpicky. How could an old aunt like that catch my eye? You're underestimating me too much."

Gu Yun chuckled softly.

Leng Huayun then turned her head: "Really?"

"Of course!"

"Then why were you staring at her?"

"Looking for a couple of seconds won't make me lose two pieces of flesh."

Gu Yun felt perfectly justified. For his own women, the more they wore outside, the better. For those who weren't his, it didn't matter how much they flaunted; it had nothing to do with him.

Moreover... this woman was actually not simple. If it weren't for her overly rich experience, she might have even made it onto the xuan qing treasure mirror.

However, the Child of Destiny who grew through dual cultivation wouldn't care about these things. Thinking of this, Gu Yun's gaze subtly drifted towards a certain direction.

At this moment, a slightly hunched figure was lurking in that spot.

"Damn it! Why does King Canglan get to be flirted with by Miao Yin?!"

"One day, I will cut off his head!"

The old man's fists clenched, grinding audibly, and his aura fluctuated erratically.

His awakening time was still too short; he was currently only at the Great Power Realm. Even if he wanted to get involved in this Quasi-Emperor Realm level battle, he was powerless.

However, a faint intuition told him that there was an opportunity here, which was why he had run out of the Paradise Holy Land.

Now seeing these fairy-like figures from the Hundred Flowers Holy Land, Li Jianqiang felt as if he had entered paradise.

"Never mind, these are not things I can consider for now. Miao Yin, that demoness, I don't know how many men she has sucked dry. With my current ability, even if I got into her bed, I would probably turn into a dried husk. No, absolutely not, I must first improve my strength."

"This Hundred Flowers Holy Land is simply my paradise. Later, amidst the chaos, I might be able to pick up a few fairies to take home."

"Hehehe, fairies, the pain of a sect's destruction is not easy to bear. Let me, Li Jianqiang, save you~~"

He rubbed his fists together, eager to try. The current situation was not chaotic enough, so he naturally dared not appear.

[Name: Li Jianqiang]

[Age: 2999]

[Cultivation: Great Power Realm]

[Identity: Male Lead of "As I Age, I Became Others' Cultivation Cauldron"]

[Golden Finger: Dual Cultivation System (System Points: 4000)]

[Physique: Pure Yang Saint Body]

[Halo: Child of Destiny Halo (Red)]

[Destiny Value: 100000]

[Associated Female Leads: Murong Yue, Liu Yunfeng, Qu Ningshang, Qin Ruoshui, Ling Suxue... (Total over two hundred people, those not on the xuan qing treasure mirror are ignored)]

Holy cow, looking at the dazzling number of female leads, Gu Yun was somewhat shocked. As expected of a human pile driver, the quantity was high.

He wondered if that old waist could keep up with all the work.

Gu Yun complained internally, and at the same time, he gained some understanding of the xuan qing treasure mirror's ranking conditions.

Simply put, it was either virgins or married women.

Aside from these two types of people, even if Miao Yin was pleasing to the eye, she wouldn't make it onto the xuan qing treasure mirror.

Gu Yun even suspected if the xuan qing treasure mirror was a worm in his stomach, as it perfectly matched his acceptance criteria.

"In that case, among Li Jianqiang's large harem, only these five still hold some value."

"Oh no, it's four."

He had already tasted Liu Yunfeng's Nine Yin Profound Jade Body, so she naturally couldn't be counted anymore.

"Why do I always feel like someone is peeking at me?"

At the same time, Li Jianqiang keenly sensed that something was wrong. He looked around but found nothing.

"Strange, my stealth technique was taught by the system. Even a Quasi-Emperor Realm expert might not be able to discover it. Who could it be?"

"System, any clues?"

[Ding! Target detected: Liu Yunfeng, Identity: Grand Elder of Hundred Flowers Holy Land, Cultivation: Quasi-Emperor Realm First Level]

[Ding! Target detected:...]

Facing the Hundred Flowers Holy Land, his system completely turned into an AI.

The frantic system prompts echoed in Li Jianqiang's mind, forcing him to temporarily stop the broadcast function.

"Damn it, why is the system unreliable at this moment?"

Having no choice, Li Jianqiang's keen perception also came to nothing.

His gaze remained on Miao Yin. Compared to the dignified and noble Liu Yunfeng and others, this fiery and seductive woman was more to his taste.

"Those legs, I wonder how good they would feel to rub."

"Hehehe~"

In the arena, King Canglan was enraged by Miao Yin's actions.

"Demoness! How dare you insult me!"

He roared, and a brilliant ice-blue divine light burst forth from his body. The extreme cold spear intent erupted like a volcano, instantly shaking off Miao Yin's frivolous finger, and even freezing the surrounding pink mist into fine ice crystals.

The icy long spear transformed into a roaring ice dragon, directly sweeping the Miao Yin in front of him into nothingness.

"An illusion."

"You woman truly have excellent methods!"

His attack missed, and King Canglan's eyes looked towards the depths of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land, speaking coldly.

"Oh my, you really are a block of ice that doesn't understand romance~"

"But I still thank you, Lord King Canglan. Without your cover, how could I have succeeded so easily?"

After a farce, Miao Yin successfully attracted everyone's attention. Her figure had already arrived beside Feng Yunyun.

She scrutinized the peerless fairy-like beauty that even made her somewhat jealous, and she couldn't be bothered with those barking, useless cultivators outside.

"What a beautiful face. What a pity to stay in this boring Hundred Flowers Holy Land?"

"Come, follow big sister. Big sister will take you back to the Paradise Holy Land. Only there will you know what true happiness is!"

Miao Yin giggled, reaching out to touch Feng Yunyun's body.

But just then, a divine light flashed.

A vast power suddenly erupted. Miao Yin bore the brunt, her figure flying backward, soaring hundreds of meters before barely stopping.

The seductive smile on her face instantly froze, replaced by shock.

"How is this possible?!"

This was definitely not a power that a Great Power Realm cultivator could possess. Who exactly was this suddenly appearing little demoness?!

Feng Yunyun herself was also stunned. She could feel something in her body being triggered. A warm and powerful force circulated throughout her body, instantly dispelling Miao Yin's alluring and corrosive aura.

She subconsciously looked at Liu Yunfeng, only to see a hint of surprise flash in the other's eyes, which then turned into understanding.

It was a contingency left by His Highness the Emperor's Son!

Liu Yunfeng instantly understood, and her reverence for Gu Yun deepened.

Her husband had already anticipated that someone would try to directly touch or control Feng Yunyun, and had set up a defense in advance!

Indeed... if he wasn't absolutely confident, how could he have safely left his woman in the Hundred Flowers Holy Land?

The situation in the arena fell into an eerie silence, but the next second, it immediately erupted into a clamor.

"Miao Yin, taking down this person won't be easy!"

"You've fallen for it!"

Xuan Yizi sneered, happy to see it happen.

"Hmph, old Daoist, why the sarcastic remarks?"

"Do you think you can succeed?"

"Alright, since things have come to this, what's the use of you and I arguing?!"

"Why don't we join forces and first break this troublesome grand formation? As for that demoness, since she can't be touched, let's capture her first. I refuse to believe that this mysterious restriction can protect her forever!"

Star River Daoist spoke coldly.

"Good, as you say!"

King Canglan said. Everyone was there for profit, and they quickly reached a compromise.

"They... they seem even crazier! What should we do?"

At the edge of the battlefield, Leng Huayun was first delighted to see the sacred power erupting from Feng Yunyun's body repel Miao Yin, but then her heart tightened upon hearing Xuan Yizi's words.

Gu Yun, however, remained calm, even having the leisure to pinch Leng Huayun's pouting cheek: "What's the rush? Did you forget what I just said?"

"But..."

"Quasi-Emperor Realm seclusion takes a long time. My master has only been cultivating for a little over three months at most. Even if she made a breakthrough, it's impossible for her seclusion to end. What should we do?"

"Who said she was in seclusion?"

"? Then why hasn't Master shown herself?"

"What if I told you, she's recuperating from an injury?"

"Recuperating? How is that possible? There haven't been any major battles recently, and as you said, Master concealed her cultivation. So in this Myriad Spirits Dao Domain, who could possibly have the ability to injure Master?"

"Far away in the sky, yet close at hand."

"You? Don't make your Sister Leng laugh. How could you? With your cultivation, which wasn't even at the Dao Body Realm at the time, even if you fought with all your might, you wouldn't be able to break through Master's defenses."

"But the fact is, a Dragon Transformation Realm nobody can make the Quasi-Emperor Realm Luo Hanyan cry for help."

"You, have to admit it."

Gu Yun gently rubbed Leng Huayun: "Just like now, with a little trick, your legs will go soft, and you'll be powerless."

Leng Huayun melted into Gu Yun's embrace: "You~~"

"You look exactly like your master when she was begging for mercy."

As Gu Yun's teasing words fell, a vast and mighty power surged from the depths of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land!

Like an ancient dragon awakening from a slumber of ten thousand years, the sound of the Great Dao rumbled!

Pushing this grand drama completely to its climax!

"Who dares to trespass upon my Hundred Flowers Holy Land!"

//499//

Chapter 499 Luo Hanyan Comes Out of Seclusion

The sound wasn't particularly loud, but it carried an unquestionable majesty and coldness, clearly reaching everyone's ears, instantly overpowering all the shouts of battle and energy explosions!

The originally noisy and chaotic scene also seemed to fall into a strange, deathly silence at this moment.

Arriving simultaneously with this voice was a vast and unparalleled terrifying pressure, far exceeding all the Quasi-Emperors present, descending like millions of tons of seawater, instantly enveloping the entire Hundred Flowers Valley!

Crack!

Crack!

The Hundred Flowers Grand Array's light surged, becoming even more stable than in its prime, despite its previous precarious state.

Meanwhile, the allied forces of various major powers, who were frantically attacking the array, were like hitting an invisible wall of divine iron; those with weaker cultivation were directly sent flying back, spitting blood from the recoil!

Even Xuan Yizi, Star River Daoist, King Canglan, and Fairy Miaoyin, the four Quasi-Emperors, felt their bodies sink, as if invisible mountains were pressing down on them, and the circulation of their magic power momentarily stagnated!

"What?!"

"This pressure...!"

"Who is it?!"

Everyone's expressions changed drastically as they looked in horror towards the depths of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land.

They saw a dazzling ice-blue divine light soaring from the deepest part of the Holy Land's Ice Secret Realm, piercing through the clouds, and triggering a resonance of heaven and earth laws!

Endless ice Dao laws, as if summoned by a monarch, converged frantically, forming countless giant ice crystal lotus flowers in the sky, slowly rotating and emitting an extreme cold aura that chilled the soul.

"After only a few days in seclusion, you petty scoundrels dare to invade my Hundred Flowers territory, harm my disciples, and destroy my land... Do you truly believe this Holy Lord doesn't exist?!"

A figure, bathed in endless ice-blue divine light and Dao law lotus flowers, slowly ascended.

She wore a plain white palace dress with light blue ice crystal patterns embroidered on the hem; her face was peerlessly beautiful, yet so cold it lacked any trace of worldly warmth, as if carved from ten-thousand-year-old ice.

There was an authority of long-held power in her brows, and her ice-blue eyes swept over them; wherever her gaze fell, the void seemed to freeze.

Her aura was as deep as the sea, as vast as the stars, and she had clearly reached — Quasi-Emperor Eighth Heaven!

Such terrifying strength could overcome all obstacles, causing the initial-stage Quasi-Emperor cultivators present to tremble and almost fall from mid-air.

"Master!!!"

Leng Huayun cried out in surprise, her beautiful eyes filled with unbelievable ecstasy.

"What are you doing, making such a fuss."

Gu Yun adjusted her position, quite displeased.

Leng Huayun managed to squeeze in a sentence: "You, aren't you surprised? That's Quasi-Emperor Eighth Heaven!"

"Eighth Heaven! Do you know what that means? There are only a few forces in the Myriad Spirits Dao Domain that have experts of that level."

"After today, my Hundred Flowers Holy Land will definitely rank among the top five forces in the entire Myriad Spirits Dao Domain, no longer a local emperor content with its isolated corner!"

"Oh? So what does that have to do with you? You're just a... little demoness... who betrayed her sect."

Gu Yun lowered his head, hooked Leng Huayun's delicate chin, and wiped the stain from her lips.

The originally ecstatic Leng Huayun instantly calmed down, her mood falling into a strange despair: "Yes, you're right."

"I have no turning back, but the Hundred Flowers Holy Land will get better and better, and I'm very happy!"

She looked up, gazing into Gu Yun's eyes, very resolute.

"You've certainly learned the essence of your Master's stubbornness."

Gu Yun slowly rose, allowing Leng Huayun to get dressed.

"What's wrong? Was my service not good enough? You know, I'm just a beginner, and I probably need more practice."

"If you give me more time, I'll definitely do better than I am now."

Gu Yun playfully pinched her little cheek: "What, are you so keen on that kind of thing? Wouldn't it be a waste of your talent if I sent you to be an undercover agent in the Demonic Sect?"

"Why not stay in my small world? I can stay with you forever and ever."

"Until..."

Leng Huayun quickly covered Gu Yun's mouth: "No, no, no, not necessary. I think it would be better if I had something to do."

"Besides, you've planned so much; if the plan fails because of me alone, wouldn't I become a sinner for all eternity?"

"I don't want that."

She looked incredibly cute like this.

Gu Yun glanced at Leng Huayun: "Alright, you don't need to declare your loyalty to me now. I won't just leave the matter of going to the Demonic Sect to you."

"You and Feng Yunyun are both in there, and that girl Hong Yu. I wouldn't be at ease with several of my wives in such a perilous place."

With that, he flew straight out.

At the young man's domineering yet caring words, Leng Huayun's pretty face inexplicably flushed: "This guy, so cold-mouthed and domineering in his actions, actually has a bit of tenderness in his heart."

"Hmm?"

"No, that's not right."

"Why did he mention Hong Yu?!!!"

"Gu Yun, explain yourself!!!"

The barrier had been broken, and Leng Huayun also chased after him.

As for the demonic cultists guarding them, they had long been quietly taken down by the Shadow Guard and transformed into Gu Yun's servants.

This cleansing operation targeting the Demonic Sect truly began at this moment... Outside, Luo Hanyan's sudden appearance disrupted all arrangements.

She merely floated silently in the air, the terrifying pressure of a Quasi-Emperor Eighth Heaven feeling substantial, almost solidifying the air throughout the Hundred Flowers Valley.

"Xuan Yizi, Star River Daoist, King Canglan, Miaoyin..."

She uttered their names one by one, her voice devoid of any emotion: "It seems my Hundred Flowers Holy Land is truly lively today. Great Development Holy Land, Star Pavilion, Ice Ripple Dynasty, Paradise Holy Land... you've all come to join the fun, very good."

"Very good indeed. Are you presuming my Hundred Flowers Holy Land has no one left?!"

Her voice was icy, and every person present felt their heart clench sharply upon hearing that cold voice, as if pierced by an invisible needle of ice.

The Hundred Flowers Holy Lord, Luo Hanyan, shouldn't she just be a Great Saint Realm cultivator?

How could she possess her current cultivation?!

Everyone found it incredible; the current situation was completely different from what the rumors suggested. If they had known Luo Hanyan had such cultivation earlier, they wouldn't have dared to take advantage of the situation.

But now... "Luo Hanyan! Do you intend to shield that demoness?!"

"Holy Lord Luo, this is a demoness, an ominous sign. Do not act stubbornly and bring disaster upon the Holy Land!"

"That's right, Holy Lord Luo. If it gets out that the Saintess of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land is a demoness with a demonic body, even if you have Quasi-Emperor Eighth Heaven cultivation, my Star Pavilion will seek justice for the common people of this world!"

King Canglan remained silent, but the hum of his ice long spear indicated his stance.

Miaoyin, however, rolled her charming eyes and giggled: "Sister Luo truly has formidable cultivation. I'm not like these guys who are always shouting about fighting and killing. This demoness is a hot potato even if she stays in the Hundred Flowers Holy Land. Why don't you hand her over to me, your little sister? My Paradise Holy Land naturally has ways to deal with her; I guarantee she'll repent and be docile for the rest of her life."

Facing pressure from all sides, Luo Hanyan remained silent, but her ice-blue eyes always held a bone-chilling coldness.

//500//

Chapter 500: Forcing the Emperor to Abdicate, the Son of Destiny Wants to Pick Up the Losses

As Gu Yun's future main wife, she naturally had reason to protect Feng Yunyun, who was also Gu Yun's woman.

Luo Hanyan always sided with her own, not with what was right!

Her gaze swept over everyone present, lingering for a moment in a hidden corner.

A hint of tenderness flickered across her beautiful face, which was usually like ice from ten thousand years, then her brows furrowed slightly. That guy... why was he with Huayun?

Thinking of her senior disciple's exquisite beauty, a surge of anger rose in Luo Hanyan's heart.

She was like a volcanic eruption, the spiritual energy she released beginning to surge.

The several Quasi-Emperor powerhouses who were verbally pressuring her were all trembling with fear. What in the world was Luo Hanyan doing?!

They had already fully revealed Feng Yunyun's identity as a demoness, yet she was still so aggressive?!

Did she really intend not to yield an inch?!

Did she truly dare to defy the world's condemnation?!

A series of questions rose in everyone's hearts, and the scene fell into an eerie silence.

As the center of the world, Quasi-Emperor Eighth Stage Luo Hanyan did not speak again, and no one dared to utter another word.

"I'll deal with you later, you brat. You've been gone for so long, and you haven't even come back to see me."

Luo Hanyan thought resentfully, and could only push aside the matter of her lover and good disciple being together. Everything still had to be dealt with after the current situation was resolved.

"Everyone, you took advantage of my seclusion to gang up on my Holy Land."

"Now you even covet my Holy Land's Saintess, slandering her as a demonic body. It seems you truly don't put my Hundred Flowers Holy Land in your eyes."

Luo Hanyan finally spoke, her voice chilling to the bone.

"Luo Hanyan! Harboring a demonic woman, do you know what a grave crime that is?!"

"This is an iron rule passed down from the Immortal Ancient Era: all cultivators of the Three Thousand Dao Domains, upon seeing a demonic cultivator, must kill them!"

"Are you trying to make the tragedy caused by the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor play out again in the Three Thousand Dao Domains?!"

The various forces continued to press on, determined not to give up until their goal was achieved.

Li Jianqiang, hiding in the dark, was overjoyed: "Fight, fight!"

"No matter if it's Miaoyin or this Luo Hanyan, once one of them is severely injured, I can pick up the spoils."

"With the techniques granted by the System, even if I'm pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth, I still have a chance to escape!"

With the Dual Cultivation System as his backing, Li Jianqiang was completely at ease.

Indeed, he was the protagonist of this world. Ever since he awakened the System at death's door and dealt with the maid who had always taken care of him, he had thoroughly embarked on the righteous path of helping those in need and drawing his weapon to assist.

He was practically a human pile driver, encountering suitable opportunities to meet immortalesses and demonesses wherever he went, and he accepted them all without question.

Of course, if you often walk by the river, how can your shoes not get wet?

Li Jianqiang, who was good in bed, quickly caught the attention of Fairy Miaoyin, who, despite being called a fairy, was actually a demoness who harvested yang to supplement yin!

If not for the physique granted by the System, Li Jianqiang felt he would have been played to death by Miaoyin long ago.

Now he finally had a chance to turn the tables, how could he not be excited?!

He was an old fox and could see through the current situation at a glance. In front of Luo Hanyan, his mistress and the other few Quasi-Emperors were simply no match!

At that time, he would let others distract the ice-cold beauty, and he would take the opportunity to snatch the prize, surely he would be able to win the beauty!

Hehehe, as for this ice-cold beauty, the time wasn't ripe yet, so he could only enjoy her later.

Li Jianqiang thought this to himself, his shoulders shaking, when he suddenly felt a huge pressure.

"Who's there?!"

He immediately snapped awake, turned to look, but it was empty, with no trace of a human.

"Could it be some kind of monster?"

Li Jianqiang scratched his head, somewhat puzzled, and his attention returned to the situation in the arena.

Fight, fight!!

Things went as the old man expected. Luo Hanyan was not someone to be trifled with, and facing the relentless pressure, she directly overturned the table.

"What demon cultivator or not."

"I don't care. I only know that Feng Yunyun is the Saintess of my Hundred Flowers Holy Land, personally placed in my Hundred Flowers Holy Land by His Highness the Emperor Son, and I, Luo Hanyan, naturally must ensure her safety!"

"Since you all have made your move, you should be prepared... to die!!"

The coldness in her ice-blue eyes intensified, and the ice lotus Dao patterns swirling around her body suddenly accelerated their rotation. Terrifying cold air swept out, the temperature in the valley plummeted again, the ground was instantly covered with a thick layer of solid ice, and even space seemed about to be frozen.

"His Highness the Emperor Son?!"

These four words, like a thunderclap from the nine heavens, exploded in everyone's hearts!

Everyone present, whether it was the aggressive Yu Lingfeng, the cunning Xuan Yizi, the detached Star River Daoist, the stern King Canglan, or the flirtatious Fairy Miaoyin, and even the elite cultivators from various major forces, at the moment they heard this title, their expressions changed drastically!

In the Three Thousand Dao Domains, if this title was used without any prefix, it referred to that one... the sole heir of the Gu Family, a monstrous talent, and a disciple of the Empress!

Emperor Son Gu Yun!!

"She... she is His Highness the Emperor Son's person?!"

The arrogance and greed on Yu Lingfeng's face instantly froze, replaced by a pallor that was almost fear.

The colorful feather fan in his hand trembled slightly, no longer able to fan even a bit.

Offend Gu Yun? Never mind him, a Great Development Holy Son; even if the entire Great Development Holy Land were tied together, it wouldn't be enough for that Highness to casually crush!

The other Quasi-Emperor powerhouses were not in much better shape. The Emperor Clan Wang Family was powerful enough, right? That was a family with a Great Emperor!

But even such an existence, in front of that person, dared not even utter a fart.

It was said that the Wang Family's old ancestor, a veteran Great Emperor powerhouse, was actually directly reduced to a cowardly turtle, hiding in the Wang Family's ancestral land and not daring to come out.

This was the prestige of this Emperor Son. How could their forces, which didn't even have a Great Emperor, contend with him?!

The retreat drum sounded in everyone's hearts. Luo Hanyan looked at the cultivators present and sneered, "It seems your determination to eliminate demons and defend the Dao is not as firm as you imagined."

No one dared to respond.

The various magnates who had just been aggressive and pressing hard were now silent, hushed as cicadas in cold.

"Everyone, take one of my swords. Those who do not die may leave!"
