No matter what kind of demon you are, if you dare to harm my woman, or put my child in danger, I’ll fight you to the death.
As You Huang slammed her palm against the abdomen of the Sect Holy Daughter, Xiao Yang desperately urged the Futian Sword to charge at You Huang.
However, You Huang still landed her palm on the Sect Holy Daughter’s abdomen, and with a swift motion of her left hand, she seized the Futian Sword that Xiao Yang thrust at her.
You Huang had caught the Futian Sword.
The blade sliced through You Huang’s palm, and drops of demon blood dripped from her hand as she held onto the sword.
“You…”
Seeing this scene, Xiao Yang’s eyes turned red. If looks could kill, You Huang would have died countless times.
Just as Xiao Yang feared for the Sect Holy Daughter and her unborn child’s fate, a beam of divine light suddenly burst forth from the Sect Holy Daughter’s abdomen.
You Huang was taken aback.
She felt an immense force erupt from the Sect Holy Daughter, pushing her back several steps.
“How is this possible…”
You Huang stared in disbelief at the ascending Sect Holy Daughter.
The Sect Holy Daughter’s abdomen seemed to be harboring an unimaginable power.
Shocked, You Huang thought, that child must not be allowed to live.
Otherwise, another being that could rival the ancient emperors would emerge in this world.
The ancient emperor, a supreme existence who ruled over an era.
If such a being were to reappear, the demon clan would have to hide away in the depths of the Demon Abyss, completely afraid to plot against the realm.
However, just as You Huang prepared to strike again, the Futian Sword in her grasp suddenly emitted a thunderous roar.
Her left hand that held the sword instantly transformed into a cloud of blood mist.
You Huang was alarmed and staggered back.
In the next moment, the Futian Sword flew out from Xiao Yang’s hand, directly hovering in front of the Sect Holy Daughter.
“What in the world…”
Xiao Yang was a bit dazed.
What was happening?
Did that demon talk about some innate primordial Dao embryo, and was it related to the Futian Sword in some way?
At that moment, the Sect Holy Daughter reached out to grasp the Futian Sword.
Then, countless runes emerged from the sword’s body, and the Futian Sword revived in an instant.
Chilling sword Qi surged in every direction.
The skies instantly turned dark, and the sun and moon lost their light.
Xiao Yang was stunned; he was desperately trying to use the Futian Sword, but it only barely emitted a trickle of sword Qi before.
Now, the Sect Holy Daughter grasped the Futian Sword, and it was fully revived.
The Sect Holy Daughter seemed to be in a very delicate state.
She stood with the sword, her long hair flowing, and in that moment, it was as if she and the sword had become the only beings in the world.
Feng Xuan and Tie Kuangtu were both dumbstruck by this scene.
But the most shocked of all was Xiao Yang.
At that moment, the Sect Holy Daughter seemed to transform into that supreme emperor.
With a single sword movement, heaven and earth bowed down.
Xiao Yang seemed to see the figure that could command the universe with a single sword.
“Impossible…”
You Huang stared in shock at the Sect Holy Daughter.
At that moment, the Sect Holy Daughter, with sword in hand, seemed to transcend heaven and earth.
She raised the Futian Sword slightly.
Endless sword Qi exploded from the sword in her hand.
The sword Qi was unstoppable and unbreakable; wherever it passed, the void shattered.
“What the heck!”
You Huang desperately activated her demon powers.
Amidst endless demon Qi, a huge demon figure rose up, exuding an overwhelming demonic presence.
The gigantic demon figure wielded a demon blade and swung it fiercely at the invading sword Qi.
The demon blade and the sword Qi collided in an instant.
The demon figure and blade were instantly pierced by the sword Qi, vanishing into the void.
You Huang was blasted backward, and blood gushed from her body.
The sword Qi that penetrated her body also brought forth torrents of demon blood.
The Futian Sword in the Sect Holy Daughter’s hand immediately dimmed and slipped from her grasp, plummeting into the Thunder Marsh below, disappearing in an instant.
The Sect Holy Daughter fell unconscious and dropped from the sky.
Xiao Yang rushed over and caught the Sect Holy Daughter in his arms.
Tie Kuangtu hurried over and pressed his hand against the Sect Holy Daughter’s pulse.
“She’s fine, the fetus is healthy!”
He withdrew his fingers from her wrist.
“Thank goodness…”
Xiao Yang sighed in relief.
If anything happened to the Sect Holy Daughter and the baby, he would devote his life solely to taking down the demon clan.
“Innate primordial Dao embryo, Futian Sword…”
Xiao Yang felt he was awakening to something.
“No…”
At that moment, You Huang let out a terrified scream.
Xiao Yang looked up at You Huang.
“Boom!”
With a massive explosion, You Huang’s entire body detonated, her form dissipating completely.
Such a powerful demon, just like that, was dead?
Xiao Yang found it hard to believe.
There was no doubt about You Huang’s power.
This demon had just been dominating the scene.
Meanwhile, deep within the Demon Abyss, in the center of an altar, an enraged roar echoed from a dark vortex.
“Who destroyed this emperor’s avatar…”
The being on the other side of the vortex was furious.
The demon sect’s practitioners trembled in fear.
……
“Haha…”
A loud laugh suddenly resonated above the Thunder Marsh.
Xiao Yang and the others were startled.
Was someone else attacking after You Huang just perished?
Then, high in the sky, the clouds surged, and rays of light filled the atmosphere.
An incomprehensible, immense pressure spread throughout the void.
It was as if the stars were trembling, and all things bowed down.
Xiao Yang was astonished to the core.
Tie Kuangtu and Feng Xuan’s expressions changed drastically.
Because they knew who was arriving.
Then Xiao Yang saw a tall figure descending from the sky, dressed in a flowing cloud robe, wearing a jade crown, exuding an otherworldly presence.
As the person descended, it seemed as though the principles of the Dao resonated in the air.
At that moment, everything seemed to come to a standstill.
This was a middle-aged man with an exceptionally refined appearance and eyes that seemed as deep as the universe itself.
“Tie Kuangtu pays respects to the Immortal Lord…”
Tie Kuangtu quickly bowed to the figure.
“Immortal Lord?”
Xiao Yang was stunned.
This person was actually the legendary master of the Immortal Gate?
What was his relationship with the Immortal Gate?
Did this Immortal Lord know his background?
Xiao Yang stared hard at the Immortal Lord.
Feng Xuan was both surprised and furious upon seeing this person.
Her father, her family, had died at this guy’s hands.
This old fellow, who knew how long he had lived, was hell-bent on ascending.
“Jiang Yaoguang, the Sect Holy Daughter, has consorted with outsiders; her crime deserves execution!”
The Immortal Lord’s voice was filled with authority.
“Immortal Lord, the Holy Daughter was schemed against by the demon clan; she deserves sympathy!”
Tie Kuangtu urgently explained.
He couldn’t just watch the Immortal Lord kill Jiang Yaoguang.
“Haha… such a hypocritical old guy. While others don’t know about your filthy deeds, I Feng Xuan still do!”
Feng Xuan suddenly burst into laughter.
“A mere little bird dares act so recklessly before me?”
The Immortal Lord didn’t even glance at Feng Xuan, casually waving his right hand.
Feng Xuan was instantly flung away.
“Hmm, an innate primordial Dao embryo, you say?”
The Immortal Lord stepped toward Jiang Yaoguang.
At this moment, Jiang Yaoguang had fallen unconscious.
Xiao Yang watched the Immortal Lord, his heart shaken.
It seemed this person had been here for a long time; had he just been watching the show?
His intuition told him that this seemingly ethereal guy probably wasn’t a good person.
“Haha… very good, after eighteen years, I shall surely ascend!”
The Immortal Lord suddenly burst into laughter.
“Immortal Lord, you…”
Tie Kuangtu looked at the Immortal Lord in confusion.
“Enough, you may now depart.”
The Immortal Lord suddenly ceased smiling, scanning them with indifference.
“What?”
Tie Kuangtu was rendered speechless.
The Immortal Lord actually intended to kill them?
“Well, to be able to sacrifice yourselves for my ascension is also an honor for you.”
The Immortal Lord spoke nonchalantly.
“I told you the Immortal Lord is a pig compared to dogs! You all didn’t believe me! Now, do you believe it?”
Feng Xuan, covered in blood, got back up from the ground.
She glared fiercely at the Immortal Lord.
“With the innate primordial Dao embryo, you all have no value anymore; you may die now.”
The Immortal Lord’s tone remained flat; it was as if he was discussing something trivial.
“Immortal Lord, I never thought you to be this kind of person.”
Tie Kuangtu couldn’t believe that the exalted Immortal Lord would have such a despicable side.
He was truly unscrupulous for the sake of ascension!
“The world only knows that I am the supreme of the Immortal Way and the master of the Immortal Gate; even if I don’t kill you, no one would believe you.”
The Immortal Lord scoffed.
“You old bastard…”
Xiao Yang’s eyes turned red with anger.
“Enough, you may now depart.”
The Immortal Lord was about to make his move.
Everyone felt despair.
This was the Immortal Lord of the Immortal Gate.
The supreme of the Immortal Way.
Who could stand against him?
However, just then, a beam of immortal light descended from the heavens, revealing a translucent figure standing quietly on the surface of the Thunder Marsh.
“What’s this…”
When Xiao Yang saw this figure, he was both shocked and delighted.
How was this possible?
The visitor, to be precise, wasn’t really human.
This was the will of the Immortal Way Xiao Yang had encountered in Yuanwu Immortal Domain.
It was this ethereal woman who had handed him the Futian Sword.
“Hmph, merely an avatar. I thought it was someone important. Be smart and scram, or I won’t hesitate to slice you down.”
The Immortal Lord dismissed.
Xiao Yang was extremely nervous.
Because he didn’t know if this Immortal will could match the Immortal Lord.
Then, the avatar stretched out its right hand, and a sword suddenly shot out from the lake, landing in its grasp.
“Hmm?”
The Immortal Lord was startled, glancing at the sword in the avatar’s hand.
In the next moment, the immortal avatar gently swung the sword.
Suddenly, the Immortal Lord’s left arm severed and transformed into blood mist.
“What…”
The Immortal Lord was truly taken aback.
As the immortal avatar was about to strike again, the Immortal Lord lost his wits and snatched up the unconscious Jiang Yaoguang, enveloping them both in an immortal light and rocketing upward, disappearing in an instant at unbelievable speed.
“…”
Xiao Yang was dumbfounded.
The Immortal Lord fled?
And that guy even took the Sect Holy Daughter?
Xiao Yang was instantly furious.
The immortal avatar didn’t pursue.
“Why didn’t you stop that guy?”
Xiao Yang yelled at the figure on the lake’s surface. Frustrated and furious, he soared upward, directly chasing after them.
