Having been slaves for many years, they had never seen such a beautiful woman; they wondered what she tasted like.
As they scoffed and laughed, Ruan Xiyan moved.
The next instant, she appeared in front of a man, her hand already gripping his neck. With a forceful squeeze, his neck and head turned into a bloody mist.
The other person beside her rushed towards Ruan Xiyan, but the force passed through her body, leaving only a blur.
"How could this be...?"
Before he could finish speaking, a black flame pierced his body, and he turned into a pile of ashes without even letting out a scream.
In the blink of an eye, one Immortal Saint Realm expert after another was eliminated.
At this moment, Gu Zui was completely panicked. She was clearly a low-level Immortal Saint, so why was she able to unleash such terrifying power and speed?
These high-level immortals and saints were completely powerless against her.
Zhong Zui no longer cared about the mission. He turned around and tried to run away. He didn't want to die, so he couldn't lose his life here.
While Ruan Xiyan was attacking another person, Zhong Zui flew away into the distance.
Ruan Xiyan tossed the corpse aside, her eyes icy as she looked at the fleeing Zhong Zui. "Your turn!"
She stepped in front of Gu Zui, who slammed on the brakes and unleashed a powerful strike.
Ruan Xiyan blocked the power, saying, "My father's injuries are thanks to you."
"So what if he is? He's just a lowly person from the secular continent. He's dead, so be it." Zhong Zui looked at Ruan Xiyan, who was blocking his way, with a wary expression.
"I stabbed him countless times, and he seemed to call your name before he died. Tsk tsk tsk, he really looked terrible!"
Ruan Xiyan revealed the Frostfall Sword in her hand and said coldly, "Provoking me will do you no good." She drew her sword and charged towards Gu Zui.
Looking at the expressionless Ruan Xiyan, Zhong Zui felt a chill run down his spine, and a strange sense of dread began to spread through his heart.
But now, only by killing her can he live! Gu Zui faced Ruan Xiyan.
Ruan Xiyan's other hand unleashed a burst of Glazed Demon Flame towards Zhong Zui. Zhong Zui had witnessed the power of this flame from others, and he quickly defended himself.
The next instant, his arm was pierced by an ice-blue longsword, and he screamed in pain.
Ruan Xiyan's longsword rolled within his flesh and blood. With a flick of her wrist, the sword slashed through, severing Zhong Zui's tendons.
"Ah—I'll kill you!" Gu Zui roared ferociously as he continued his attack on Ruan Xiyan.
Ruan Xiyan followed suit and severed the tendon on his other wrist, causing his two hands to hang limply.
"What do you want! Kill me if you dare!"
"You want a quick death? Not so easy. The pain you inflicted on my father, I will make you pay back twofold." Ruan Xiyan's eyes had long since turned bloodshot without her realizing it, and hatred and killing intent continued to spread in her heart.
When she arrived at the capital, she saw the once bustling and prosperous city in ruins. The collapsed buildings and the screams echoed in her mind, as if it were a living hell.
Her blood seemed to freeze instantly, but a sliver of hope still lingered in her heart.
But when she saw Ling Yunchen's cold corpse, all her remaining rationality vanished, and the string in her heart snapped.
With a swift movement of her sword, Ruan Xiyan severed the Achilles tendons in Zhong Zui's legs. With a shrill scream, she kicked him back to the ground.
Before Zhong Zui could recover from the pain of having his tendons severed, Ruan Xiyan fell from the air and stomped hard on Zhong Zui's knees.
The chilling sound of bones shattering echoed all around. Zhong Zui's knees went limp, leaving only a pile of broken bones mixed with bits of flesh.
The other elders gasped when they saw this.
After not seeing her for several years, the princess's strength had become terrifyingly powerful. However, the princess's current appearance was also quite frightening, making them tremble.
"I will smash every bone in your body, bit by bit, so that you can neither live nor die."
"Kill me! Kill me now!" Gu Zui wailed in agony. "You are a demon."
Although Ling Haoyang also wanted to tear this person to pieces, seeing Ruan Xiyan's increasingly irrational appearance, he felt a pang of heartache and called out, "Yan'er."
In just a few years, Yan'er has achieved her current strength. How much hardship must she have endured outside?
"Yan'er, there are still a few people killing in the capital city, and the second and third brothers are helping the people in the city. I'm worried something might happen to them." Ling Haoyang's words brought Ruan Xiyan back to her senses.
"Second brother, third brother," Ruan Xiyan cried out softly, unable to let her second and third brothers get into trouble too.
With Ruan Xiyan's command, the Soul-Binding Vine on her wrist began to entwine around Gu Zui, wrapping him up in a tight, airtight cocoon from head to toe.
"Tear his soul apart and devour it."
The Soul-Binding Vine is a demonic plant that loves to devour souls and flesh.
Even without Ruan Xiyan saying anything, the Soul-Binding Vine had already begun tearing apart Gu Zui's soul, since the souls of Immortal Saints were fertile nourishment for the Soul-Binding Vine to increase its strength.
In the blink of an eye, the Soul-Binding Vine retracted, leaving only a pile of broken bones in its place.
With a casual wave of her hand, Ruan Xiyan turned the shattered bones into powder, which was scattered by the wind.
Her spiritual power covered the entire imperial city, searching for Ling Zhiheng and Ling Jingyan's whereabouts. Sensing something, she flew straight in one direction.
The imperial city was filled with collapsed ruins, and the slaves were searching for Ling Zhiheng and Ling Jingyan.
"Damn it! They're like rats, hiding and playing us for fools!" one of the slaves roared in fury.
"Turn this city upside down, let's see where they can hide." Another slave raised his hand and destroyed several houses in front of him.
The emanating power and its aftershocks instantly annihilated the people hiding in the houses, and Ling Zhiheng and his group nearby were also blasted away by the aftershocks.
"Found you, little mice." They looked at Ling Zhiheng and the others who were lying on the ground coughing up blood, and their power manifested in their hands. "We've been leading you in circles for so long, it's time to end this."
"Boom—Bang!" The giant box in the air suddenly exploded.
The slaves frowned deeply. "What happened! Why did the treasure explode?"
"Could something have happened to Gu Zui? Let's deal with them first, then go and see what's going on?"
Just as they were about to strike, they suddenly felt a chill run down their spines.
Their bodies stiffened abruptly as black power surged through them, and at the same time, a cold, merciless voice rang out behind them, "You all deserve to die!"
