Her composure and calmness made it seem as if with her around, there was nothing to worry about or fear.
This is the true appearance of a great cultivator who protects the sect, not the elegant and graceful cultivators in times of peace who appear like immortals in their magnificent robes.
"I'm really worried if you don't die," Shen Wangshu said bluntly after a moment of silence, holding his sword.
Little Xuan, perched on her shoulder, met the Demon Sect Master's resentful gaze, wagged its tail, and nodded vigorously in agreement.
This is because the leader of the Demonic Sect is ambitious. After dealing with the demonic path, he came to cause trouble for the righteous path. Once he subdues the righteous path, the demon race will likely be the ones to suffer.
It seems that Shen Wangshu and it cannot remain among either the human or demon races. Once she leaves, the Demon Sect Master will hold absolute power, and the demon race, having lost its powerful Fox King, will have long since declined. It cannot leave its lover to return to the fox clan, but the fox clan is its former family, and it cannot allow the entire fox clan to be annihilated for the sake of love; that is not the behavior of a former Fox King.
The only way is to kill the Demon Sect Master, and then Shen Wangshu will leave Guangming Sect.
At that time, the human race will lose two Nascent Soul cultivators, and the demon race will lose one Nascent Soul demon cultivator.
Only when the forces are balanced again will the cultivation world truly be at peace.
"You!" The Demon Sect Master's face twisted in hatred as he spoke in a low voice, "Are you really going to fight me to the death?! To be honest, this was your fault! Although my daughter comes from the demonic path, she shouldn't be bullied like this. That brat bullied her and ruined her innocence. Shouldn't I seek justice from you?... What are you laughing at?!" Seeing the mocking smile on Shen Wangshu's face, he was instantly enraged!
"She and Yue Xizhi are all entangled in a mess, and you still come to ask me for my innocence?" Shen Wangshu couldn't help but laugh mockingly.
She knew exactly how Yue Xizhi's affair came about. It was because she had orchestrated it that she took action to eliminate the Demon Sect Master, rather than letting her disciples be dragged into the conflict and harmed because of her own selfish desires.
She flicked her fingers repeatedly, turning the elixirs in her hand into sweet spring water that rained down from the sky. Seeing that the wounds on the Guangming Sect disciples were healing, she slowly looked at the Demon Sect Master and said softly, "Is it my fault that you're shameless? Stop trying to save face! You'd stand up for a girl you don't like? What kind of benevolent father are you pretending to be!"
The Demon Sect Master clearly had other plans.
Sure enough, the tall man had already shown a wary expression, but when he saw the huge sword shadow hovering above Shen Wangshu's head, he stopped and dared not move.
Lingxiao Daozun possesses astonishing combat power; in his younger days, he could sever a person's arm with a single sword strike, and now he is likely even more terrifying.
"Tell me, what are you planning?" Seeing countless demonic cultivators flying out from the distant floating mountain of Guangming Sect, with the two daughters of the demonic sect leader flying at the forefront, Shen Wangshu smiled.
The favored one was still hesitating, but Yiyi had already called out, and with a flick of her long sleeve, a magical artifact flew out.
The demonic weapon whistled as it pierced towards Shen Wangshu's chest.
"Stop!" The Demon Sect Master's expression changed, and he shouted loudly.
However, it was too late.
Shen Wangshu's lips curled into a faint, cold smile.
This demonic artifact that once pierced the heavens has returned to Yiyi's hands.
Seeing the Demon Sect Master's nervous expression, she knew the demonic artifact must have a significant origin. In that case, she was even less likely to refuse something offered to her.
However, a fox was faster than her.
The fluffy white ball squeaked and swung its paw. A flash of light appeared, and the demonic artifact was instantly crushed into dust by a giant beast's claw. A howl came from the artifact, and a black shadow fled in panic.
The fox squeaked twice more, crushed the dark shadow with one paw, and turned to wag its tail at Shen Wangshu, presenting him with a treasure.
Everyone's attention was focused on the fierce fox that had smashed the obviously mysterious magical artifact with a single blow. Watching it cling to its big tail and fawn over Shen Wangshu, rubbing against him, its little body swaying back and forth, everyone couldn't help but twitch their eyes as they looked at the long-gone magical artifact.
Just then, the Demon Sect Master suddenly vomited a mouthful of black blood. He was covered in sweat as if he had been seriously injured, and his expression was weak. He barely floated in mid-air with a look of shock and anger, looking at Yi Yi who was crying in panic opposite him, and then staring intently at Shen Wangshu.
"Oh. A natal demonic artifact?" Upon seeing the Demon Sect Master cough up blood, Shen Wangshu revealed a look of understanding.
This natal demonic artifact is an important demonic artifact connected to the aura of the Demon Sect Master. Although it will cause serious injury to demonic cultivators if it is damaged, it is more powerful and easier to use than ordinary demonic artifacts.
Shen Wangshu never expected that the thing that had killed Lingxiao Daozun in the past was actually the Demon Sect Master's natal demonic weapon.
"Father!" Yiyi stood helplessly on the cloud, not knowing what to do.
She had assumed that the demonic artifact was the natal artifact of the Demon Sect Master, possessing astonishing power, and would be able to subdue Shen Wangshu. However, she hadn't even managed to touch a single finger of Shen Wangshu before being dealt with by a mysterious fox.
This fox is too strange. Although it was Yiyi who unleashed the demonic weapon, it's not something an ordinary spirit beast could withstand. Her mind was filled with schemes. Seeing the Demon Sect Master staring at her with bloodshot eyes, she shivered and cried out, "I didn't mean it, Father!"
She was so frightened that she trembled all over, clearly knowing that the Demon Sect Master would not let her off easily.
What she didn't know was that this demonic artifact was an important item that the Demon Sect Master had other great uses for, and because she destroyed it, it immediately enraged the Demon Sect Master.
