Chapter 154: Qin Fei’s Plan, Completely Foiled

There’s no denying the power of Mo Hongyue.

Under the moonlit night, her blood moon phenomenon instantly locked the void, even trapping Xiao Yang.

“What the…”

Xiao Yang watched as Mo Hongyue’s magic spear shot straight for his forehead.

He shook fiercely, dispelling the force that had him bound.

In the next moment, he raised his right hand, pointing his sword finger at the incoming spear’s tip.

“Whoosh!”

A sword cry echoed throughout the heavens.

Under the control of the Futian Sword intent, his flying sword shot forth from his fingertip.

The spear and sword clashed, sparks flying everywhere.

Xiao Yang’s sword momentum was unstoppable.

Mo Hongyue was forced back by the flying sword that burst forth from Xiao Yang’s finger.

The sword qi radiating from the flying sword was incredibly powerful, shattering Mo Hongyue’s Martial Realm.

“What…”

Mo Hongyue was taken aback.

Xiao Yang was merely a Martial Realm master; how could he break her Martial Realm?

This didn’t make sense!

“Qingyang Sword Technique, Chasing Stars and Pursuing the Sun!”

Using intent to control the sword, the sword light transformed and flashed so fast it surpassed the limits of the naked eye, resembling a waterfall of stars, like a dragon roaring through the heavens, instantly piercing towards Mo Hongyue.

The speed of that sword left Mo Hongyue no time to dodge.

As the sword light passed, the air seemed to split in two, as if the void itself was about to be pierced.

Just as Mo Hongyue was about to be pierced by Xiao Yang’s sword, a magical shadow suddenly surged around her.

A powerful demonic force exploded from that shadow.

The flying sword that Xiao Yang had sent forth was unexpectedly deflected by this magical shadow.

“Heavenly Demon Shield?”

Xiao Yang was taken aback.

With a single thought, the flying sword that had been knocked back flew back to him, swirling around him like a dance.

“You know about the Heavenly Demon Shield?”

Mo Hongyue stared at Xiao Yang in disbelief.

This was the Demon Sect’s protective magic symbol, known as the Heavenly Demon Shield Symbol.

This wasn’t just any ordinary protective talisman.

The Heavenly Demon Shield Symbol was crafted by a powerful symbolist with half-step Demon Saint cultivation.

Even among the higher-ups in the Demon Sect, there were not many of these life-saving symbols.

Because this thing could really save your life at critical moments.

Now, the Heavenly Demon Shield had saved Mo Hongyue’s life.

Even in the Demon Sect, not many people knew of this protective symbol’s existence.

How did Xiao Yang know?

“Hmph!”

Xiao Yang chuckled lightly but said nothing.

Mo Hongyue couldn’t dream that Xiao Yang had been reborn.

What didn’t he know?

Is it not just a life-saving symbol crafted by a half-step Demon Saint?

In others’ eyes, this was a huge secret, something not many knew.

But to Xiao Yang, it wasn’t a secret at all.

“Kill!”

Summoning the power of the Heavenly Demon, the enormous magical shadow slammed its palm toward Xiao Yang.

“Boom!”

The gigantic palm pressed down on him, shaking the entire void.

This Heavenly Demon Shield wasn’t just for protection.

The power unleashed by this magic symbol couldn’t last forever; it would dissipate soon.

Mo Hongyue aimed to take this opportunity to obliterate Xiao Yang into dust with the Heavenly Demon’s might.

That force was at least on the level of a peak Divine Martial Realm practitioner.

Otherwise, the Heavenly Demon Shield wouldn’t be able to withstand Xiao Yang’s flying sword.

Mo Hongyue unleashed the power of the symbol with a strike that was also at the peak of the Divine Martial Realm.

In her eyes, Xiao Yang was just a Martial Realm practitioner.

This strike was enough to wipe Xiao Yang out entirely.

Xiao Yang merely concealed his true cultivation.

With Mo Hongyue’s level, she couldn’t perceive the reality of Xiao Yang’s power.

“Futian Sword rise, Punish Evil and Exterminate Demons!”

In an instant, Xiao Yang blended with his sword, transforming into a dazzling sword light as he shot toward the gigantic hand coming down from above.

Xiao Yang’s sword light pierced through the descending magical hand and then lunged toward Mo Hongyue for a lethal strike.

The massive hand dispersed into the void.

Mo Hongyue retreated once again.

Xiao Yang was like a shadow following her.

Sounds of metal clashing rang out continuously.

Mo Hongyue wielded her magic spear, directly blocking the incoming sword light.

“Clang!”

She fiercely deflected the approaching sword light and then turned to dash toward Ghost Mist Gorge below.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Demon shadow surrounding her was rapidly dissipating.

By the time she charged into Ghost Mist Gorge, the Heavenly Demon shadow had completely vanished.

“You think hiding in Ghost Mist Gorge will save you from me?”

A smirk appeared on Xiao Yang’s face, and in the next moment, he flipped his right hand, revealing a Thunderfire Bomb.

These were plentiful in the Refining Sect’s Refining Pavilion, and they were cheap.

Xiao Yang had quite a few Thunderfire Bombs in his Qiankun Ring.

He started throwing them, one by one, down into Ghost Mist Gorge.

The gorge erupted with consecutive explosions, lighting up the dark canyon while causing the lurking remnants of the Demon Sect to panic and frantically dodge the falling Thunderfire Bombs.

The power of these bombs was truly astonishing.

Xiao Yang didn’t need to take the risk of entering Ghost Mist Gorge.

And Qin Fei’s plan was completely foiled.

Xiao Yang wasn’t going to charge into Ghost Mist Gorge knowing that remnants of the Demon Sect lay in ambush there.

This left Mo Hongyue and the others extremely frustrated.

Xiao Yang just wouldn’t come down.

They had no way to handle it.

“Fine, then I’ll just have to take this guy down with my strength.”

Mo Hongyue was at her wit’s end.

She wanted to conserve her strength, but it now appeared impossible.

She didn’t want anyone to know her true power.

But now, she had no other choice.

Let’s go all out in battle!

Mo Hongyue gripped her magic spear tightly and charged out from Ghost Mist Gorge.

This time, she was exuding a murderous aura, as if she were a reaper risen from hell.

“Xiao Yang, you’re dead!”

Mo Hongyue brandished her magic spear and charged towards Xiao Yang.

With a sweeping motion, her spear aimed to decimate him.

Xiao Yang retreated directly to evade her attack, then swung his sword at Mo Hongyue, aiming to pierce through her.

The two clashed again in battle.

This time, Mo Hongyue no longer concealed her power.

Her spear danced with a tyrannical force, constantly clashing with Xiao Yang’s flying sword and creating countless sparks.

This was Mo Hongyue’s true strength.

Xiao Yang couldn’t withstand it and was pushed back step by step.

Peak Divine Martial Realm?

Mo Hongyue actually possessed the cultivation of a peak Divine Martial Realm practitioner.

Xiao Yang was firmly suppressed by her.

Although he had the True Sun Holy Body and was a swordsman genius, he had suppressed his cultivation to the peak of Martial Realm, and he just couldn’t match up against Mo Hongyue.

If he wanted to defeat her, he would need to use his true strength and summon the two Ninth Level Spiritual Beasts for help.

But he didn’t want to reveal his abilities.

What a headache!
