Chapter 553: Chapter 544: What Calamity Has Befallen

"Teacher, can you sense whether Sister Ru’s soul is still there?"

After Yang Zhong spoke, he continued to stare at the Jade Scroll in front of his chest. After a while, that raspy, aged voice finally spoke again, "This girl’s soul is indeed still within her flesh. As long as the Evil Object possessing her body is eliminated, she can indeed regain control of her own flesh. However..."

At this point, the voice suddenly paused for a moment, then after a while, it continued, "But my dear Zhong, the power of the Evil Object has now reached the Realm of the Martial Emperor! To extinguish it is easier said than done!"

"As long as Sister Ru’s soul is still there, that is good!" After hearing that elderly voice, Yang Zhong said firmly, "One day, I will personally slay the Evil Object that has harmed Sister Ru!"

...

The ferocious battlefield was becoming increasingly intense. Violent Demon Fog surged towards the skies from both Li Liuxin’s and Li Ru’s bodies, enveloping the entire sky above the battlefield in dense fog.

Thick and fierce Black Thunderbolts struck down continuously, bombarding the two combatants, yet their bodies, faced with the onslaught of the Black Thunderbolts, seemed utterly unbothered!

In Li Liuxin’s hand was a long sword that seemed to be condensed from the Demon Fog, and he thrust it towards Li Ru.

A giant Demon Fog sword materialized above Li Ru’s corporeal body, enveloping her, and then with a swift motion, she shattered it with a single slice. Following closely, Li Ru gripped the pig-killing knife with both hands, raised it high, and with a seemingly simple and unadorned move, she fiercely chopped down towards Li Liuxin!

Li Liuxin, with a face that remained as tranquil as before, also performed a seemingly simple and unadorned thrust, aiming at the descending chop from Li Ru!

A blade and a sword clashed fiercely once again!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" Following these seemingly plain moves, a violent eruption resounded once more across heaven and earth.

The ground trembled violently, as if an earthquake had occurred, and the air shook tremendously, waving like fierce ocean tides.

Such was the strength of the Power of Martial Emperor!

After their exchange, they were both blown back by the force of the other’s attack. However, after retreating a distance, they both charged forward again, their mighty Power of the Martial Emperor colliding once more.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" The heavens and earth became frenzied again, as if the angry skies were unleashing their rage once more!

...

"These two abominable creatures are evenly matched in strength; it seems difficult to determine a victor! However, for me, it would be best if they exhaust their strength, ending in mutual destruction. That way, I could reap the benefits of their downfall!" Still watching the battlefield, Shi Feng murmured under his breath.

This Li Ru had been possessed by an Evil Object, and they had clashed fiercely when they met at the Blood Fiend Sect of the Yunlai Empire. He had been injured and nearly killed by the Evil Object. It was because Sister Ru suffered and suppressed the Evil Object that he managed to narrowly escape that calamity.

That day, I had promised to help her reclaim this body. Moreover, this Evil Object had attempted to kill me several times, and Dark Evil had even taken a hit for me. I vowed that sooner or later, I would avenge Dark Evil and exterminate this Evil Object!

As for Li Liuxin, Shi Feng was also very curious. What kind of being was he, and what secrets did he possess?

All of this—if these two ended up injuring each other in the battle—I could go and suppress the Evil Object inside Li Ru’s body, and I could also find out what was really going on with Li Liuxin.

However, while the idea was beautiful, the outcome was often unexpected. The formidable pair in battle seemed to know their strengths were matched, and after repelling the other with great force, they both stopped fighting.

Immediately after, the figures of the two moved at the same time. They did not resume the fight but instead shot towards the direction of Tianlan Imperial City. And the trajectory of their flight was diagonally upward.

Seeing these two people’s actions, Shi Feng’s heart suddenly jolted, and he cursed inwardly, "Damn it! Instead of continuing to fight fiercely, they’re charging at me now!"

The two had ceased fighting and were shooting towards him. Shi Feng could tell at once that they were coming for him because of the Demon Finger and the Demon Eye fused into his body.

They were indeed coming for the Demon Finger and the Demon Eye.

"Run, Little Bai, run! If we don’t, we’re really dead!" Seeing the two people flying towards him, Shi Feng immediately said to Little Bai beneath him.

"Roar! Roar!" Naturally, Little Bai also realized the gravity of the situation and immediately galloped away at great speed, fleeing once more with Shi Feng on its back!

"Ah, ah! They’re coming, they’re coming!" The Martial Artists, who had been watching the battle in the Void, suddenly saw these two fierce people flying toward them out of nowhere and immediately their faces turned pale, and panic set in amongst the crowd.

The crowd, which had been bunched together, scattered in all directions, escaping in every direction possible.

However, quite a few Martial Artists had already gathered around Shi Feng’s vicinity. As Li Ru and Li Liuxin passed by in their rapid movement, there were still some slower Martial Artists who, under the barrage of invisible forces, suddenly split apart in the Void.

Some lucky Martial Artists, who had fled in a different direction from Shi Feng, were far away from those two figures and managed to narrowly escape with their lives.

The most unfortunate ones were those who fled in the same direction as Shi Feng. As the two figures drew near, their bodies suddenly burst apart, turning into pieces of flesh and spraying red blood that scattered onto the ground.

The White Tiger sprinted furiously, stirring up a wild wind. Shi Feng stood at the opposite end of Little Bai’s running direction, gazing at the two figures that were rapidly closing in on him, anxiety starting to rise in his heart.

If I were to be caught by these two, death was almost certain! First, there was the Evil Object that had possessed Li Ru. We had fought several times, each time it aimed for my life, and each time I caused it to seethe with hatred. The grudge was already firmly set!

Then there was Li Liuxin. After transforming into another person, he launched an attack at the sight of me. That strike was undoubtedly aimed at my life.

At this time, the retreating Martial Artists also realized that the two people were flying quickly towards the Tianlan Empire, as if they had a target in mind. They were chasing after that young man wearing Blood-colored Battle Armor riding a White Tiger.

What kind of disaster had this young man encountered in his past life to warrant being hunted simultaneously by these two ferocious individuals!
