Yu Kai, hidden in the darkness of the void, instantly recognized the newcomer—Zhu Xiaoxian, ranked second on the Tianjiao Ranking. He was filled with confusion: "I have no past or present grudges against him, so why would he do such a cruel thing to me? Furthermore, his strange movements are exactly the same as Zhang Qiming's. What is their relationship?"
"Yu Kai, get out here!" Zhu Xiaoxian roared angrily into the silent void, his voice echoing in the air, filled with threats. "You're not coming out, are you? I've already sent Feng Wuling to capture Shen Xingze and the others! When she comes back, I'll make sure they're left with a fate worse than death!"
Yu Kai gritted his teeth, enduring the pain, and remained silent. He knew he had to seize the moment to recover, striving to regain some fighting strength before Feng Wuling returned, otherwise Shen Xingze and the others would be in danger.
Soon, Feng Wuling arrived, accompanied by Shen Xingze, Bai Zhiwen, Ruiying, and the others. She wore a fiery red phoenix-tail dress that fluttered in the wind like a blazing flame. Her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, adorned with ornaments crafted from phoenix feathers that shimmered with a strange light as she moved. Her face was breathtakingly beautiful, her eyes as bright as the stars, her skin as white as jade, delicate as goat fat. A vibrant phoenix fire mark on her forehead added a touch of nobility and mystery to her. Her movements were graceful, and every move exuded an innate aura of nobility. The shadowy image of a fire phoenix occasionally loomed behind her, as if she were the phoenix itself. In her right hand, she held three divine ropes, dragging the dying Shen Xingze and the others behind her. Shen Xingze and the others were covered in wounds, their necks tightly bound by the ropes. Every struggle tightened the ropes, and blood trickled down their necks.
"Yu Kai, why don't you come out? Then don't blame me for being cruel!" Zhu Xiaoxian said, pulling Shen Xingze over like a dead dog, tightly grabbing his hair.
"Brother! Don't worry about us. We won't really die in this secret realm. Hurry up and go to Lingyunxu, and then avenge us!" Shen Xingze realized that Zhu Xiaoxian wanted to use him to threaten Yu Kai, and shouted loudly with his last bit of strength.
"Looking for death!" Zhu Xiaoxian was immediately enraged, a glint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes as he tore off one of Shen Xingze's arms. Blood immediately splattered, and Shen Xingze rolled in the air in pain, but he forced himself not to make a sound.
Yu Kai could no longer suppress the rage in his heart. Like a meteor shot out from the void, carrying endless rage, he rushed straight towards Zhu Xiaoxian. The Moon Spirit Holy Sword in his hand flashed with a cold sword light and stabbed Zhu Xiaoxian fiercely.
"Hmph! I've been waiting for you!" Zhu Xiaoxian's lips curled into a cruel smile. He casually tossed Shen Xingze aside like a rag, a Dragon Halberd instantly appearing in his hand. He charged forward, meeting Yu Kai's attack. Instantly, the swords and halberds clashed, sparks flying everywhere. The two figures intersected in the air, fiercely clashing. Another all-out confrontation. "Bang!" The powerful impact sent both of them flying backwards.
Yu Kai continued to slide backwards, but before he could steady himself, Feng Wuling, wielding the Nirvana Phoenix Sword, loomed like a ghost. The tip of the sword flashed with a cold gleam as it pierced Yu Kai. Yu Kai hurriedly blocked it, but with a crisp, "ding!" a powerful force ripped through the sword's blade, numbing his arm and sending him flying backwards uncontrollably.
Zhu Xiaoxian seized upon Yu Kai's unsteadiness and charged again like a fierce tiger. For a moment, sword shadows flickered like the cry of a phoenix, and the halberd's gleam shone like the roar of a dragon. Under their combined attack, Yu Kai gradually fell into a disadvantage, his body constantly incurring new wounds, and blood stained his mecha red. Ruiying and his companions, observing this from a distance, were distraught, but their own injuries made them powerless to intervene.
"Puff!" Another stream of blood splattered. Zhu Xiaoxian seized the opportunity and thrust out his Ancestral Dragon Halberd like a venomous snake, piercing Yu Kai's other shoulder. Almost instantly, Feng Wuling flicked her wrist, deftly knocking the Moon Spirit Sacred Sword from Yu Kai's grasp. Immediately afterwards, Zhu Xiaoxian launched a powerful kick, striking Yu Kai hard on the right side of his head. Like an arrow from a bow, Yu Kai plunged into the ground with a roar, sending up a cloud of dust.
Zhu Xiaoxian's face was ferocious, and without hesitation he raised the Ancestral Dragon Halberd in his hand and fiercely stabbed Yu Kai. Ruiying and Bai Zhiwen saw this, their eyes filled with fear, and they shouted in unison: "Brother!"
Shen Xingze erupted with a resolute force, ignoring his own serious injuries as he lunged at Zhu Xiaoxian, hoping to secure a chance of survival for Yu Kai. However, with a "puff!", before he could reach Zhu Xiaoxian, Feng Wuling's Nirvana Phoenix Sword slashed through like lightning, slicing him in two. Shen Xingze dissipated in despair, leaving behind only a cry of unwillingness that echoed through the void.
"Brother Chen!" Bai Zhiwen and Ruiying shouted in grief, their eyes filled with tears and anger.
"Puff!" At that moment, Zhu Xiaoxian's halberd pierced Yu Kai's abdomen, piercing him completely. Yu Kai clutched the halberd tightly with both hands, blood spurting from his mouth, his eyes burning with blazing hatred. A powerful pseudo-god power surged like a torrent, rapidly flowing through his meridians, frantically repairing his injuries.
"Brother!" Ruiying and Bai Zhiwen were completely enraged, and they rushed towards Zhu Xiaoxian without hesitation. However, a cold sword light instantly streaked through the void, and the two men didn't even have a chance to resist. The head flew high into the air, and blood spurted out like a fountain.
"No!" Yu Kai roared, his fury erupting like a volcano. With both hands exerting force, he yanked the halberd from his abdomen. At the same time, he extended his hand, and the Moon Spirit Sacred Sword whizzed, landing firmly in his grasp like a bird returning to its nest. Yu Kai summoned all the pseudo-god power within him and roared, "Space Mystic Spirit Slash!" With this roar, a brilliant sword beam tore through the void, like a bolt of lightning spanning time and space, hurtling towards Zhu Xiaoxian.
Zhu Xiaoxian had never expected that even a severely wounded Yu Kai could unleash such a powerful sword move. Startled, he quickly blocked with his halberd. However, the sword technique was too strange, and the sword light vanished directly in front of him. Before he could react, he heard Feng Wuling let out a shrill scream. Feng Wuling, who had previously shown a triumphant expression, was struck by this sudden sword strike, her entire body instantly split in two, and she dissipated like light smoke along with Bai Zhiwen, Ruiying, and the others.
At this moment, Zhu Xiaoxian finally reacted. He clutched the Ancestral Dragon Halberd tightly in both hands and charged towards Yu Kai with bloodshot eyes. The two engaged in a fierce battle once again. For a moment, the attacks from both sides collided like a violent storm, the powerful force creating countless black holes in the void. These black holes resembled all-consuming beasts, emitting a terrifying aura. The slightest carelessness would devour them, leaving no hope of recovery.
