The night was cold and the wind was howling.
Murderous intent, scheming, and plotting burst forth in the air, unfolding the most perfect game of chess.
Lin Xian'er and Yu Xiyan remained silent.
After a long silence, Yue Beiqing finally spoke: "What exactly is your purpose?"
Jiang Haitian: "A scheme that has been planned for a long time is naturally for the final outcome, to obtain the greatest benefit."
"So, you're not one of Leng Qingcheng's people?"
"What's the point of arguing about whether someone is one of hers or not?"
Yue Beiqing's eyes darkened: "I'm wondering, in the Demon Realm, besides the two largest forces, Demon Abyss and Demon Breath, what else could possibly be worthy of the loyalty of a capable person like you?"
To my utter surprise, you intend to rise to become the third major power in the Demon Realm! Your ambition truly astonishes me!
"No, you're wrong!"
Jiang Haitian shook his head.
"Not a third force, but the only one. Both you and Leng Qingcheng are targets I need to eliminate."
"Ha ha ha ha--"
Yue Beiqing burst into laughter.
"Jiang Haitian, you have great ambitions, but I'll say it again: are your abilities proportional to your ambitions?"
After speaking, he unleashed his imperial might, causing the air to explode.
Yu Xiyan felt her breathing quicken and involuntarily retreated several feet.
Lin Xian'er collapsed to the ground in agony, clearly the backlash from the Myriad Dao Slave Seal had severely injured her.
"Ambition requires sufficient strength to protect it! Jiang Haitian! Do you have that strength?"
Faced with Yue Beiqing's provocation.
Jiang Haitian laughed: "Strength. There's a saying you may or may not have heard: Jiang Haitian, the martial arts legend, is always someone you can't expect."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Haitian took the initiative and suddenly shot out the water and fire pearl he had been holding in his hand.
Ding ding~
Two loud explosions rang out, and under the night sky, the Water and Fire Pearls shone with their most magnificent brilliance.
"Like an ant trying to shake a tree, it's overestimating its own strength!"
With a single move, Yue Bei flung away the Water and Fire Pearls, then stopped abruptly. Instantly, the cliff trembled, showing signs of collapse.
Jiang Haitian retrieved the Water-Fire Pearl and took ten steps back.
He remained completely calm even when facing a powerful emperor.
"Try my Heaven-Devouring Demon Flame!"
Yue Beiqing unleashed a palm strike, and in an instant, a hand covered in jet-black flames appeared in the void, rushing straight towards Jiang Haitian.
"Nine-Character Mantra: Remain Calm in the Face of Danger"
At the critical moment, Jiang Haitian unleashed the protective aura of the Water and Fire Beads in his hands, merging with the Nine True Words, and risked his life to block it.
In an instant, the aftershocks swept across, completely ravaging the surrounding scenery beyond recognition.
As the smoke and dust cleared, Jiang Haitian was seen with water and fire energies flowing around him, completely unharmed!
"Um?"
While Yue Beiqing hesitated, Jiang Haitian made his second move.
"Nine-Character Vertical and Horizontal Incantation - Stepping on the Dipper!"
In an instant, Jiang Haitian transformed into countless figures, alternating between reality and illusion, constantly moving around Yue Beiqing.
"Divine Protection!"
Yue Beiqing immediately sensed something was wrong and decisively circulated his qi to protect himself.
After withstanding eighty-one palm strikes from Jiang Haitian, the two separated by thirty steps again, entering the next round of confrontation.
"Was it you who appeared in the Ice and Fire Cave last night?"
"Now that you know the answer, will it change your despondent state?"
Jiang Haitian sneered and immediately launched the Water and Fire Twin Pearls.
The Nine-Character Mantra of Strategic Maneuvering: Commanding the Mountains and Rivers.
The extreme move, a fusion of water and fire of the same origin, created a continuous offensive, forcing Yue Beiqing to use all his strength to activate his imperial energy to resist the attack of the water and fire beads.
Just as he was receiving the attack, Jiang Haitian suddenly changed his move again.
The Nine-Character Mantra: Jade and Stone Shatter.
Boom~
With a deafening explosion, the Water and Fire Pearls broke through Yue Beiqing's imperial aura protective barrier.
A vast amount of internal energy instantly flowed into Yue Beiqing's chest.
but……
boom--
A tremendous force of recoil swept directly at Jiang Haitian's face, forcing him back seven or eight steps.
"Um?"
This unexpected turn of events caused Jiang Haitian to frown slightly.
Demonic energy surged around Yue Beiqing, clearly indicating that it was a protective aura armor.
"Unexpected?"
Yue Beiqing sneered, then with a flick of his wrist, a purple-colored imperial-grade longsword fell steadily into his palm from the void.
"Do you think that I, as the ruler of the Demon Realm, only have these kinds of methods?"
With the Emperor-grade Demon Blade in hand, Yue Beiqing's aura increased by another three points.
"Jiang Haitian, in hundreds of years, apart from Leng Qingcheng, you are the first person to force me to use an imperial artifact."
"I admire your abilities, but I despise you even more. Therefore, I'm no longer playing with you; I'll send you to the Yellow Springs."
"ha……"
Jiang Haitian suddenly laughed.
"Yue Beiqing, if I'm not mistaken, the armor you're wearing is the Demon Realm Sect-Suppressing Armor, from the Night Emperor Demon Abyss of the Supreme Peak?"
"It seems you do have some knowledge. To die at the hands of Night Emperor Demon Abyss and this Supreme Dao weapon, you can be said to have lived a worthwhile life!"
"Death? Hah!"
Jiang Haitian's expression instantly turned serious.
"Yue Beiqing, you'd better take a look at the direction of Tianqing Gorge behind you before deciding whether you want to continue entangled with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, a tremendous explosion rang out.
Yue Beiqing turned around and his pupils shrank instantly.
In the direction of Tianqing Gorge, the main camp of the Demon Abyss was suddenly engulfed in flames.
"Was this also arranged by you?"
Yue Bei pointed his sword at Jiang Haitian, his cold face instantly turning frosty.
"Are you planning to stay here and argue with me, or go back to put out the fire?"
"You are truly meticulous in your planning, leaving no room for error!"
Yue Beiqing clenched his fists tightly, looking at Jiang Haitian's calm and collected expression, and gradually fell into deep thought.
