The Aloof Lord's Mysterious Wife
Chapter 743: "You and I Are Both Miserable Souls—Must You Go to the Extreme?"

Chapter 743: "You and I Are Both Miserable Souls—Must You Go to the Extreme?"

"This is not right!"

On the way, Shandu had already figured things out.

The immortal artifact was something Yan Buxiu had paid for, and shortly afterward, this incident occurred. It was clearly an attempt to harm his master.

Furthermore, the heavenly punishment thundercloud appeared, followed by the light of the firmament descending, proving that the North Polar Ziwei Emperor Star was right here.

The one committing the evil was aiming for the Ziwei Emperor Star. Since the plot failed, Yan Buxiu had personally arrived!

"Follow me!" Shandu called to his junior brothers. "Use the Daluo Buddha Hand!"

The senior brother commanded, and they didn’t ask any questions or have any doubts.

The twelve of them flew up into the air together.

Yan Buxiu had already spotted the two people outside the city gate.

It really was divine intervention!

Zhen’er had died because of Chu Ye, and he must pay with his life!

Furthermore, Chu Yan was the Human Emperor. In this crisis, he had returned to his position, and the Human World had begun to generate a faint aura of spiritual energy!

Even if he were to face heavenly punishment today, he must eradicate this root cause!

He formed a hand seal and summoned his sword.

His clothes fluttered in the wind.

A massive spiritual energy sword had already been condensed.

His eyes filled with murderous intent, his fingers manipulated the spiritual energy sword, aiming it toward the two brothers.

Chu Ye had seen this giant sword before.

It had been in the sky above the Capital!

He immediately realized who the visitor was.

But the powerful spiritual energy pressure was so immense that he couldn’t stand upright.

In the end, he could only use his willpower to protect the unconscious Chu Yan in his arms.

Inside Yan Town, whether cultivators or ordinary soldiers and citizens, everyone’s eyes went wide when they saw the spiritual energy sword.

Qiao Dabao was alarmed: "We must leave! If this sword strikes, the entire city will become ruins!"

This was the power of the Nascent Soul stage!

Yan Buxiu was disregarding the way of heaven, seeking to exterminate everyone!

Chu Yang said, "You can leave, but the common people in the city can’t!"

Qiao Dabao took a step back and said, "This... this is their fate. Even if we join forces, we’re no match for Yan Buxiu."

People from the Lower Realm were always considered inferior.

Let alone facing the master of Penglai Island, the leader of a major sect!

How could they afford to offend him?

But as they argued, the twelve Shans had already used the Daluo Buddha Hand!

A giant golden Buddhist hand appeared in midair, facing the rising sun from the east, and intercepted Yan Buxiu’s spiritual energy sword!

Clang—

The sound was deafening.

The collision of spiritual energy between the two sides stirred up a fierce wind, nearly destructive enough to tear the heavens and earth apart!

The fierce wind knocked over all the ordinary citizens of Yan Town.

Houses suffered significant damage.

Only Qiao Dabao and other cultivators could stand firm, relying on their own spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy sword blotted out the sun.

They looked on, their fear deepening.

This was the difference between the Upper Realm and Lower Realm. They possessed various ancient texts, and their spiritual power was first-rate.

"Indeed... it’s the master of Penglai Island," Qiao Dabao murmured, his pupils shrinking.

The spiritual energy sword was incredibly fierce, and it had already forced the Daluo Buddha Hand of the twelve Shans to retreat inch by inch.

Although all twelve of them were at the Golden Core stage, the highest cultivation among them was only at the late Golden Core stage.

The Daluo Buddha Hand was extremely powerful, but it required a Nascent Soul cultivator to wield it effectively.

Even though they combined their strength, they could barely maintain it, and they wouldn’t be able to hold it much longer.

The weaker monks could no longer withstand the pressure and were spitting blood.

Shandu was no better off, his forehead covered in sweat.

At this moment, they were all gritting their teeth, holding on!

Chu Ye stared blankly and murmured, "This giant sword is tens of times stronger than the previous one!"

"Of course!" Yan Buxiu heard him, "The last time, it was from thousands of miles away, and I used a split of my soul, so the power was naturally weakened."

If he had been in the Capital at that time, how could he have let Nanli escape?

He glanced coldly at Chu Ye and added, "You killed Zhen’er, today, I will make you pay with your life!"

Even though his own cultivation had been weakened, now that he had come this far, he had to release this pent-up anger!

The spiritual energy sword fell again, a few more inches.

He was going to destroy Yan Town! Avenge his daughter!

He would kill the Human Emperor and ruin the land’s fortune so that no more spiritual energy would ever emerge!

The golden Daluo Buddha Hand had already cracked.

Several monks vomited blood, their bodies swaying.

If it continued, the Daluo Buddha Hand would collapse the city walls.

Thunderclouds appeared once again in the sky.

This time, the thunder was even more intense, deafening with each strike, as if warning Yan Buxiu to retreat.

But Yan Buxiu had already gone mad. He only hated that he had initially hesitated to act out of fear of heavenly retribution, which had led to today’s situation.

This time, he would not be afraid, and he would not show mercy!

"Slash the heavens and destroy the earth! Only I am supreme!"

Yan Buxiu shouted in anger.

Boom—

The Buddha hand shattered completely!

The spiritual energy sword had no more obstruction and fell straight down!

Chu Ye felt as if his body were about to be torn apart, writhing in agony.

Even the unconscious Chu Yan furrowed his brow.

But just as the thunder roared,

Qiao Dabao finally made a decision. He led the clan leaders to fly up and, using their weak spiritual power, blocked the giant sword!

"Lord Qiao!" Chu Yang was stunned.

Not only that, Uncle De and Elder Chen also arrived and contributed their strength.

Together, they temporarily blocked the giant sword.

Shandu propped himself up and saw this scene, his eyes reddened.

Yan Buxiu didn’t expect any resistance.

This was the fifth form of the Starry Sword Spell, which was extremely draining on spiritual energy.

Sweat beads the size of beans appeared on his forehead, and his lips turned pale.

He knew that he couldn’t delay any longer and immediately poured all his spiritual energy into the attack!

Even if Yan Town couldn’t be destroyed, Chu Ye and Chu Yan must be killed!

Seeing this, Shandu disregarded his own injuries and stepped in front of the two men.

The powerful sword energy rushed toward him, shattering his Buddha seal barrier. In an instant, his monk’s robe tore open, and he was covered in blood.

The Vajra Umbrella on his back was stained with his blood.

The strap broke and fell to the ground.

Inside the secret realm,

Cinian sensed his disciple’s blood and frowned, feeling his mind become unsettled.

He glanced at Nanli. Her demonic seal on her forehead had not dissipated, and she was still in a deep slumber.

Although he was anxious, he knew he couldn’t rush.

Within Nanli,

The Demon Soul hadn’t expected to be gradually stripped away.

It even vaguely sensed the possibility of being exterminated!

The Demon Soul felt the strength of Nanli’s soul and repeated the question it had asked earlier: "Who are you?"

"I don’t know." Nanli answered.

Similarly, she felt the blood aura from the Vajra Umbrella outside.

She furrowed her brow. If she waited a little longer, she would be able to exterminate the Demon Soul without affecting herself, but now...

There was no time left!

She had to make a decision quickly!

Nanli’s spiritual sense made the golden light of the runes grow more intense, and the Demon Soul was tormented, letting out painful groans.

"Chu Nanli, I was betrayed by the one I loved, sealed within this Vajra Umbrella for I don’t know how many years. Now, I am nothing but a wisp of Demon Soul. We are both miserable souls—can’t you show me some pity? Must you go to the extreme and exterminate me?"
