The black-robed demon was so angry at these words that he paused for a moment, then let out a cold snort.
"You little beast, how dare you be so insolent! I'll stew you first, then deal with your so-called master!"
"Oh my, that's really interesting!"
Little Fire jumped two steps, flames leaping between its claws.
"Master, this guy is too arrogant. Shall I go first? Consider it a good workout!"
Ye Lingtian nodded slightly.
Be careful!
"Hey! Don't worry, Master, I can take care of this kind of trash with one swipe!"
With a flick of its tail, Little Fire charged straight at the black-robed demon.
The black-robed demon sneered, raised his hand, and a jet-black energy ripple spread out, instantly condensing the surrounding black energy into countless tiny blades, which shot towards Little Fire.
As soon as Xiao Huo raised his head, he opened his mouth and spewed out a ball of blazing Nine Yang Heavenly Fire. The moment those black blades touched the flames, they melted away like ice and snow, instantly being burned to ashes.
That's it?
Xiao Huo tilted his head, looking disdainful.
"I thought you were so great. You dare to show off such a paltry trick?"
"Arrogant little beast!"
The figure of the black-robed demon blurred for a moment, then merged directly into the black mist and disappeared.
"Huh? It ran away?"
Little Fire looked around warily, its nose twitching a few times.
"Master, this guy's hiding. Is he trying to play dirty tricks?"
Ye Lingtian stood still, his gaze indifferent.
He can't escape!
As soon as he finished speaking, the black energy surged violently, and a huge, pitch-black hand reached out from the void, heading straight for Ye Lingtian.
With lightning speed, Little Fire flashed and stood in front of Ye Lingtian, unleashing a burst of blazing flames from its mouth.
"Dare to touch my master? Did you even ask me first?!"
Xiao Huo's voice carried a hint of anger.
The pitch-black palm emitted a piercing shriek as it burned under the Nine Yang Heavenly Fire, and quickly withdrew.
The black-robed demon reappeared, this time its aura becoming noticeably more violent.
"Nine Heavens Emperor, you really did bring a decent bodyguard!"
It sneered.
Ye Lingtian snapped his fingers, and a seven-colored sword light descended from the sky, instantly forcing the black-robed demon back.
"Why should I, the Emperor, need guards?"
Ye Lingtian's voice wasn't loud, but it contained an irresistible authority.
"Little Fire, move aside!"
Xiao Huo was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, but still obediently stepped aside, muttering to himself.
"Alright, alright, Master's going to take action himself. This guy's really unlucky!"
Ye Lingtian's gaze fell on the black-robed demon.
"I'm giving you one chance to explain your purpose!"
The black-robed demon laughed loudly, his voice mocking.
"Nine Heavens Emperor, you're nothing special. You think you can get information out of me? Wishful thinking!"
"good!"
Ye Lingtian simply nodded.
"Since that's the case, I will send you back to the Void Abyss!"
Before he finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared, and in the next instant he appeared beside the black-robed demon, slashing down with his seven-colored longsword.
A dazzling sword light flashed, and the black-robed demon was cut in two before he could even react.
"impossible...."
The voice of the black-robed demon echoed as it faded away.
"You... how could you...?"
Ye Lingtian sheathed his sword, turned and left, leaving behind only a faint remark.
"Blind as a bat, they deserve to die!"
Xiao Huo approached, his face full of excitement.
"Master, well done! This guy is too weak! He was gone before I even had a chance to warm up!"
"It's just a minor character!"
Ye Lingtian said casually.
"So where do we go now?"
Little Fire followed him, looking around curiously.
"Should we find a few more to practice with?"
Ye Lingtian did not answer, but simply looked up into the distance.
The onlookers were only then able to recover from their shock.
They glanced at each other and then knelt down before Ye Lingtian.
"Thank you so much, Your Majesty, the Heavenly Emperor of the Nine Heavens, for your help! Without you, we would have perished long ago!"
Ye Lingtian simply waved his hand and said without turning his head.
"Let's go, let's leave this place, the aura of evil will continue to spread!"
"Yes! We will definitely heed your teachings!"
The cultivators kowtowed repeatedly until Ye Lingtian's figure completely disappeared before they dared to stand up.
Little Fire walked along, glancing back repeatedly and muttering to himself.
"Hey, Master, don't you think these people are too cowardly? They run away as soon as the evil spirits come, unlike us who have such courage!"
"If you say another word, you won't get to eat anything today!"
Ye Lingtian glanced at it.
"Ah! No, Master, I was wrong, okay?!"
Xiao Huo immediately shut up, shrank back, and followed.
As the mountains and forests receded into the distance, Ye Lingtian's figure blended into the world.
Time flies, and another period of time has passed in the blink of an eye.
"Report! Sect Leader! The extraterrestrial demons have breached the Tian Shu Sect's defensive formation. The Elders' Council has sent out a distress signal. They won't be able to hold out much longer!"
Inside the main hall of the Qingling Sect, a disciple rushed in in a panic, his voice trembling slightly.
"Tian Shu Sect?"
The sect leader, standing on the high seat, frowned slightly and looked at the elders beside him.
"Isn't the Heavenly Pivot Sect's protective formation supposed to be able to withstand a Venerable Realm expert's attack for three days? What is the origin of this demon?"
"The specifics are still unclear, but it is rumored that the leader is a Chaos Messenger, leading more than a hundred demons, and has already broken through three lines of defense!"
The disciple's face turned pale.
