Boom! !
The earth shook and the sky and earth changed color.
Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan stood in mid-air, both of them were covered in blood, their hair was a little disheveled, and their clothes were torn, revealing wounds.
The back mountain of Qinglian Mountain below was in an even greater mess, with the peaks flattened, the mountain springs evaporated, and the forests disappeared.
The battle between the two Yuanying masters almost cut off half of Qinglian Mountain!
The two men were panting, staring at each other with bloodshot eyes, their faces full of murderous intent.
"Wei Shouyuan, your Supreme Heart-Slaying Sword is indeed extraordinary. It's a pity that you will still die here today!"
"Haha, Shi Shuhong, don't think that I really can't break your body cultivation!"
There were loud noises in the air again, and the mountains and the earth seemed to be shaking.
However, the two men who were displaying their divine power in the air did not notice that the back mountain of Qinglian Mountain had been destroyed beyond recognition by them, but the dried-up lotus pond was still intact and not affected at all.
boom!!
It was another life-and-death battle. Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan fell from the air, their feet stomped into the green rocks on the ground with a bang, and they stared at each other.
Shi Shuhong sneered: "Wei Shouyuan, you only have half of your spiritual power left, right?"
Wei Shouyuan snorted coldly: "Shi Shuhong, aren't you the same?"
The two were about to continue their action when they suddenly let out a cry of surprise at the same time, and their faces changed slightly.
They finally noticed the lotus pond.
The surrounding ground cracked, the mountains and rivers were flattened, but the lotus pond was not affected at all.
"How is this possible?"
"There is a defensive formation around the lotus pond! When was it built?"
Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan's faces changed slightly, and they immediately looked around vigilantly.
When they first arrived at the back mountain, there was no magic formation on the lotus pond at all!
Who is it?
Shi Shuhong seemed to have thought of something and suddenly turned his head to look at the confinement magic circle in the distance.
Xiaotang was inside there. The two of them used a confinement magic circle to trap Xiaotang when the fight started.
However, at this time, the confinement magic circle had disappeared.
"Where's the magic circle?"
“Where are the people?!”
Wei Shouyuan also noticed something was wrong, his face changed drastically: "Escaped?!"
At this time, a petite figure slowly walked out of the smoke and dust. She was delicate and pretty, with childish eyes and eyebrows. She was He Zhiqiu's weak mistress, Xiaotang.
However, at this moment, there was no more panic and fear on Xiaotang's face.
She walked slowly towards Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan with steady steps and a calm expression.
"How did you escape from the magic circle?"
Wei Shouyuan looked at Xiaotang in disbelief. Although the girl was still as delicate and tender as ever, the feeling she gave him was completely different from before.
Shi Shuhong's face was gloomy, and he suddenly asked: "You are not Xiaotang! Who are you?"
Wei Shouyuan was stunned, then reacted and pointed the magic sword in his hand at Xiaotang: "I have clearly checked just now, you are indeed a congenital top-grade spiritual root! Who are you?!"
"Of course I'm not Xiaotang. You ask who Xiaotang is? Then I'll tell you..."
Xiaotang walked very slowly, his voice seemed to come from the Netherworld, and a cold, miserable smile appeared on his face.
"On the first day my master took me up the mountain, my senior sister came to greet me and my master called her 'Xiao Tang'. Later I found out that her name was Chun Hong Tang."
"I asked my senior sister why she was called Chun Hongtang. She said that because our founder of Qinglian Sect was called Sheng Tanglian, our master gave her the character 'Tang' and named her Chun Hongtang."
"Master asked me what name I would like, and I said I only knew my last name was Xia. Master said I would become a saint in the future, so naturally I should also bear the name of the ancestor. So, Master named me..."
As Xiaotang walked slowly, her body gradually grew taller and her facial features slowly changed. Her petite oval face turned into an elegant and dignified oval face. Her appearance was extremely beautiful, but her starry eyes were full of murderous intent.
Her jet-black hair fluttered, gradually turning half snow-white and half fiery red.
When she was three feet away from Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan, she finally stopped and uttered the last three words from her beautiful red lips:
"Xia Qinglian."
Suddenly, the mountain behind Qinglian became as silent as death.
Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan opened their mouths wide, their eyes widened, and their faces were filled with fear as if they had had a nightmare:
"You, you, you are... are... Xia Qinglian?!"
"You, you're not dead?!"
Shi Shuhong's legs went limp and he almost fell to the ground. He backed away repeatedly, his face pale:
"Don't come over here, don't come over here!"
Wei Shouyuan's hands were shaking, and he could barely hold the sword. His voice was trembling as he spoke:
"You, you, you are obviously dead, are you a demon?!"
At this moment, the images that appeared in countless late-night nightmares filled the minds of the two people, becoming clearer and clearer!
The Holy Maiden of Demon Sect, Xia Qinglian!
The witch who was besieged by more than a dozen late Nascent Soul cultivators, but ended up killing two of them and almost killed herself!
If it weren't for the help from Sect Leader Chen Qingmo and the Feiyun Sect Leader, everyone would have spent countless immortal weapons and set up a ninth-grade killing formation, and everyone would have been killed by her alone!
No, she is not a witch, she is simply a demon from hell!!
But, this demon god is clearly dead!!
Xia Qinglian's face was full of frost, and her voice was extremely cold and stern: "Shi Shuhong, you killed 169 disciples of Qinglian Sect, 17 female relatives of disciples, 7 children, and 18 villagers at the foot of Qinglian Mountain."
"Wei Shouyuan, you killed 218 disciples of the Qinglian Sect, 23 female disciples, 6 children, and 21 villagers from the foot of Qinglian Mountain, one of whom was a baby."
"In your hands, there are countless innocent souls, and blood has flowed like a river. Today, all those innocent souls are here. I will use your flesh and blood to sacrifice to the souls of the many in heaven!"
Shi Shuhong's legs were shaking, his heart and soul were shattered, he turned around and tried to run, but he found that the area within a mile was covered by a huge formation. He turned back in horror and looked at Xia Qinglian:
“You’ve already planned this.”
Wei Shouyuan's face turned pale, but he couldn't believe it: "How is it possible?! Even if He Zhiqiu is your accomplice, why would Ye Xiyue help you set up a trap?!"
"Ye Xiyue? That's right!" Shi Shuhong's eyes lit up:
"In the battle at Tianlu Mountain, Ye Xiyue was seriously injured, and her cultivation level dropped from the peak of the Nascent Soul stage to the Foundation Establishment stage! Xia Qinglian, you should be the same, your cultivation level must not have recovered, otherwise why would you go to such great lengths?"
Wei Shouyuan also reacted, the fear in his heart eased a little, and he held the sword more steadily, staring at Xia Qinglian:
"Yes, she probably hasn't recovered yet! We still have a chance!"
Xia Qinglian remained silent, the spiritual power surged in her body and stopped at the eighth level of Golden Core.
"Eighth level of Golden Core!"
"She has only recovered to the eighth level of the Golden Core!"
Wei Shouyuan and Shi Shuhong were delighted:
"Although we are injured, as long as we join forces to fight the enemy, we will definitely have the strength of the peak of the Nascent Soul!"
"No matter how strong Xia Qinglian is, it's impossible for an eighth-level Jindan to kill a peak-level Yuanying!"
"We will fight for all the people of the world today and kill the Saint of the Demon Sect!"
