"Verification? What are you going to do? Do you want to take me back?" Xiaoqian took a small step back and asked warily.
"What you just said is all your side of the story. Although many details match up, there is still one crucial piece of evidence that can prove whether what you said is true."
"What did you say?" Xiaoqian asked curiously.
"That is, your identity as a spirit!" Hong Jiuquan stared sharply at Xiao Qianwei, as if trying to see through her true thoughts.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qianwei immediately became alert, a disdainful sneer playing on her lips.
"Are you planning to take me back with you?"
"If you have a clear conscience, then you have nothing to fear from me taking you back to verify!" With that, Hong Jiuquan reached out his hand to Xiao Qianwei.
Just as she was about to bend down and reach out to touch Xiao Qian Weiwei, Xiao Qian Weiwei sneered and slapped Hong Jiuquan's hand away.
"Arrest me?" Although Xiao Qianwei was small in stature, her aura was so powerful that even Hong Jiuquan was shocked.
"You dare to challenge me?"
The moment she finished speaking, a powerful demonic aura emanated from her and spread outwards. Hong Jiuquan's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly circulated his spiritual energy to block it. At the same time, the decorations in the room were blown to pieces.
Taking advantage of the moment when Hong Jiuquan blocked, Xiao Qian Weiwei wanted to escape, but Hong Jiuquan is now a cultivator in the Mahayana stage, how could he be easily subdued by Xiao Qian Weiwei?
Her red pupils suddenly changed, and her beautiful eyes transformed into a half-withered spider lily.
She drew her longsword and murmured softly.
"The Sword of Life and Death!"
With a single sword strike, seemingly carrying endless death energy, it hurtled towards Xiao Qianwei.
The moment the sword was unleashed, a look of surprise flashed in Xiao Qianwei's large, watery eyes.
"The origin of the Way of Life and Death?"
With a loud bang, the door to the room was smashed into pieces and flew out as the sword fell.
The loud noise attracted the attention of many people.
Almost simultaneously, Xu Xinrou, Li Baiyu, Su Nian, Qian Shudie, Si Shulan and others all looked toward the direction of the explosion.
Not only them, but also Qian Muyu and Qian Taotao from the Illusion Demon Clan noticed the battle.
"Huh? Two people are fighting in our yard. Who could they be?" Qian Muyu muttered to herself curiously.
He pushed open the door and stepped out, only to bump into Qian Taotao right in front of him.
"Tao'er, who is fighting?" Qian Muyu asked.
Since Su Nian now lives in that courtyard, out of courtesy, Qian Muyu will not use her divine sense to investigate.
"I don't know, I'm going there too," Qian Taotao replied, shaking her head.
"I see..." Qian Muyu gazed at the battle not far away, stroked his long white mustache, and muttered to himself in a strange tone, "Speaking of which... it's a bit strange. There shouldn't be any Phantom Demons in that courtyard, right? But why... do I sense the aura of a Phantom Demon?"
Inside the courtyard, with Hong Jiuquan's life-or-death sword strike, most of the house was destroyed.
Xiao Qianwei successfully dodged and retreated, increasing the distance between herself and Hong Jiuquan.
She raised her head with a solemn expression, looking at Hong Jiuquan, her eyes narrowed as if she were looking at a dangerous venomous snake.
"Indeed, you have the cultivation of the Mahayana stage. It seems... you haven't lied to me about this." Hong Jiuquan approached with his sword drawn and said calmly.
Xiao Qianwei sneered, "I was a powerful figure on the continent a thousand years ago, why would I lie to a junior like you?"
"That's hard to say. Although Su Nian married a demon, it doesn't mean I agree to the marriage."
Hong Jiuquan ignored Xiao Qianweiwei and said coldly, "If Qian Shudie were dead, it would be fine. Although the two had a formal relationship, they had not actually intertwined. If the world heard about it, they would at most be known as infatuated lovers. But now that she has come back to life, it's different. Their marriage has touched the sore spot of both the Nine Provinces and the Demon Realm. If this gets out, neither the Nine Provinces nor the Demon Realm will have a place to stand."
Hong Jiuquan pointed the sword tip at Xiao Qian Weiwei and said expressionlessly, "Su Nian is too audacious and reckless. He has colluded with the demons without permission and continued his personal affair without regard for the consequences. Such heaven-defying behavior will eventually make him suffer!"
"Ha! How outdated!" Xiao Qianwei sneered and stood up. "Su Nian has now become a half-step True Immortal! Apart from Mo Rouyun, who in the world can rival him? The opinions of the people? Who cares! Just beat up anyone who disobeys! In this world, might makes right!"
Hong Jiuquan shook his head and said, "According to what you just said, if Su Nian wants to fight against the Ghost Immortal, she must unify this world, become the new Palace Master of the Human Emperor's Palace, and obtain the Human Emperor's Token, right?"
"That's right! What do you want to say?"
"The Human Emperor has been famous for a thousand years, and he has the support of countless people. Take the incident of creating a hole in the sky last time, for example. Su Nian was the one who caused the trouble, but the Human Emperor was the one who cleaned up the mess. Do you think... under such circumstances, Su Nian can gain the support of countless people simply by defeating the Human Emperor?"
"I've already made myself very clear!" Xiao Qianwei said coldly, "Anyone who disobeys will be killed!"
"well……"
Hong Jiuquan let out a long sigh.
She drew her sword, preparing for battle.
"Since we can't communicate with words, let's have a real fight."
"Hmph! That's exactly what I was thinking!"
Xiao Qian and Weiwei snorted coldly, and then the two of them rushed towards each other, unleashing their martial arts skills and fighting fiercely.
