Nangong Ling'er pondered for a moment, then said, "Yao'er, I've oversimplified this matter. If anything happens, feel free to act. I'll take responsibility for anything that occurs!"
As she spoke, a hint of killing intent flashed in Nangong Ling'er's eyes. Xiao Yuhan lay on the bed, unconscious. Once, after she learned that her senior brother was the true leader of the Blood Lotus Sect, she did not choose to tell her senior brother, the sect leader, which meant that she already believed in her senior brother and somewhat approved of his choice.
Now it seems that her senior brother was right. A sect really needs people to do those shady things. She knows that in terms of combat power, she is not as good as any of her senior brothers or sisters. Even her position as an elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect is only because of her medical skills.
The respect others have for her stems from her senior brothers and sisters, as well as the Heavenly Sword Sect behind her. Even if some of that respect comes from her medical skills, it is respect, not awe.
Therefore, she realized that she couldn't communicate with someone like Nanmen Ruoxuan on an equal footing based on these things alone. She either needed to be like the sect leader, who was highly respected, or like Liu Jiantang, who was invincible, or like Xiao...
So she gave Bai Yao permission, and under these circumstances, there was no need to think about the identity of the Righteous Alliance anymore. Nangong Ling'er looked at Zhang Chengfeng not far away. At this moment, Zhang Chengfeng also led the people of the Blood Lotus Sect to stand on the side of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Nangong Ling'er coldly said, "This matter concerns my Heavenly Sword Sect and Nanmen Ruoxuan. Everyone, please consider this carefully. I know you can't afford to offend the Snow Cold Blade Sect, but is the Heavenly Sword Sect someone you can afford to offend? If I were you, I would retreat now and not take sides here. You want to kick a dog when it's down? Don't you know who you're disrespecting? If we wait until we've calmed down and come back to settle accounts with you, it won't be so simple!"
Upon hearing this, many people wavered. Some suggested investigating the matter thoroughly before proceeding, while others simply turned away, not wanting to offend anyone.
Although everyone was shouting to exterminate the demons, most of them were actually from the Snow Cold Blade Sect who were under the orders of Nanmen Ruoxuan. Only a small number of disciples from other sects either had long disliked the Heavenly Sword Sect group and didn't care whether the Heavenly Sword Sect had really been possessed by the demon race.
After all, one thing is certain: Bai Yao's demonic power is undeniable. No one cares whether Bai Yao is a demon or a human, or whether a human has mastered the power of a demon. The only point is that the power she possesses is indeed terrifying.
Nangong Ling'er saw things very clearly. She knew that many people here genuinely believed Nanmen Ruoxuan's words, but there were also many who wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of Bai Yao, which she could not tolerate.
If the sect leader, Liu Jiantang, or even Xiao were here, the situation probably wouldn't have developed like this, right? Nangong Ling'er knew that this matter couldn't be resolved peacefully, so she made up her mind and turned to Bai Yao with a look on her face, "Yao'er, do it. If possible, kill as few people as possible, but ensure your own safety."
Bai Yao slowly walked into the courtyard, her demonic power surging forth. That aura was definitely more terrifying than Bai Yu's aura before. The people present suddenly realized that Bai Yao's attack on Bai Yu was not a sneak attack, but rather that her strength was truly superior to Bai Yu's.
Bai Yao raised her hand and gently pressed down. The terrifying palm force swept across the entire Snow Cold Blade Sect, causing sand and stones to fly. The houses that were already on the verge of collapse collapsed in an instant, and those who did not have time to escape on their swords died on the spot. With just this one strike, except for the room where Bai Yao's master was behind her, no place in the entire Snow Cold Blade Sect was spared.
However, Bai Yao held back, perhaps fearing that it might affect those who had no intention of fighting. So she deliberately restrained her strength and did not harm the immortal disciples who turned to leave.
However, the Snow Cold Blade Sect disciples suffered heavy losses, with several disciples being blasted into dust by demonic power.
Not far behind, Nangong Ling'er called Bai Yao to a halt, frowning slightly without speaking. Zhang Chengfeng, however, looked at Bai Yao with a hint of apprehension. At this moment, Bai Yao was even more terrifying than Bai Yu. When killing, she showed no emotional fluctuations, as if the lives of these people were as worthless as grass in her eyes.
Nangong Ling'er regretted letting Bai Yao take action. It wasn't because she couldn't bear the responsibility of killing these people, but because Bai Yao's current state was indeed frightening. She was afraid that this would have a negative impact on Bai Yao. But in the current situation, how could they turn the tide without relying on Bai Yao's power?
Nanmen Ruoxuan's expression grew increasingly grim. She knew that this little girl who could use demonic power was strong, but she didn't expect her to be this powerful. With just one strike, she killed so many disciples of the Snow Cold Blade Sect. She swooped down from mid-air and attacked Bai Yao directly. The famous sword Su Xue in her hand had been crushed earlier, but she had somehow obtained an ancient heavy sword that looked much stronger than Su Xue.
Bai Yao showed no fear and rushed forward to block the attack with her sword. However, after this attack, Bai Yao's expression changed. She did not defeat Nanmen Ruoxuan in one blow as she had imagined.
Nangong Ling'er frowned, turned her head to look at Nanmen Yihen in the room, and her expression immediately changed drastically. "Yao'er, be careful, that is Nanmen Yihen's sword. It is the treasure of the Xuehan Sword Sect, the Mountain-Shaking Sword, which can mobilize the Xuehan Sword Sect's protective formation."
Bai Yao's face turned somewhat pale. The Xuehan Blade Sect's protective formation should be the most domineering formation in the world. Unlike the Kunlun Immortal Sect's Nine Luminaries Heavenly Star Formation and the Heavenly Sword Sect's Qiankun Wuding Formation, the Xuehan Blade Sect's formation is more like a formation that is nurtured by ferocity.
This was the first time anyone present had witnessed the activation of the Snow Frost Blade Sect's protective formation. This formation contained the true essence of the Snow Frost Blade Technique, so from the moment Nanmen Ruoxuan gripped the famous blade Han Yue, the area within the Snow Frost Blade Sect was filled with a red, malevolent aura, resembling the legendary demon realm. Those within it would inevitably have their evil thoughts stirred within them.
