Chapter 115: The Demon Princess
Seeing his palm being caught steadily by his master, Chu Xianzhi's worry did not diminish at all, because the enemy this time was different.
He summoned his natal magic weapon, holding the sharp sword tightly in his hand, and stared at the hand that was waving at him again with his deep, dark eyes.
“It is said that this demon clan ancestor has reached the great perfection of the Tribulation Crossing Stage in his cultivation, and he is only one step away from ascending to the upper realm.
He has been in seclusion for hundreds of years, why would he come out at this time? And he even attacked us..." Chu Xianzhi said in a heavy voice.
Mu Nanyue clasped her hands together and condensed the formation again to block the incoming hand.
"Boom bang bang-"
Powerful spiritual energy and demonic energy intertwined and spread in all directions. The surrounding trees seemed to be overturned, uprooted, and flew away into the distance with the strong wind.
"Maybe... it's because of Hua Jinrong?" Mu Nanyue was also confused, and then she heard what the Invincible System said, 'plot reminder'.
Good guy!
Hua Jinrong is actually the demon princess!
Mu Nanyue couldn't figure it out immediately. As a princess of the demon clan, what did Hua Jinrong want? With such a noble status, there would be countless men willing to stick to her.
Why would she fall for Meng Huaiqian?
System 007: "You're interested in it too."
Mu Nanyue: "..."
System, you understand how heartbreaking it is!
This is a fact. Mu Nanyue had to admit that she was really moved by Meng Huaiqian's efforts and sincerity, but only once.
Now, he has changed.
"Although Meng Huaiqian has some talent and looks like a handsome man, Hua Jinrong called him a waste before and obviously looked down on him. How could she be willing to stay with him for several years?"
Mu Nanyue’s doubts were soon answered by the invincible system.
She laughed out loud.
It turned out that the demon clan had just changed its leader, and that person was Hua Jinrong's biological brother.
Because the new Demon Lord is not very powerful, he is often disobeyed by his subordinates. They are all respected seniors from various demon families, but the Demon Lord's elders turn a blind eye to this.
Let him solve it all by himself.
Then the new demon lord set his sights on his own sister.
Since the demons and the sects have a feud, the new demon lord wants to eliminate a sect in order to gain merit and establish his prestige.
The Huanling Sect is the last of the five major sects. It defeated the other sects only by a bit of luck. Its overall strength is much weaker than the other four major sects.
But the Huanling Sect is one of the five major sects after all, so the new Demon Lord has been keeping his eyes on it.
Mu Nanyue had a blood feud with the demons for hundreds of years, so she quickly became the target of the demon lord. He deliberately asked Hua Jinrong to disguise herself as an orphan with no background, take the opportunity to infiltrate the Huanling Sect, and find a chance for them to fight each other.
However, Hua Jinrong has never been a person who is willing to put herself in a difficult position. As soon as she arrived, she set her sights on Meng Huaiqian, the most powerful person in the entire sect, and pretended to be pitiful in front of him to attract sympathy.
Afterwards, the conflicts between Mu Nanyue and Meng Huaiqian increased again and again, and the Huanling Sect was naturally affected and could not be peaceful.
until now……
It has to be said that Hua Jinrong did succeed, but at the cost of her life.
Today, although the Huanling Sect has not been successfully eradicated, the sect leader Meng Huaiqian is dead, and the strength of the remaining elders is equally matched.
They are naturally ambitious.
By then they will surely compete secretly and fight among themselves, and the entire sect will be like a pile of loose sand, at the mercy of others.
After all, there are countless sects eyeing the last place. If the Huanling Sect cannot put forward a powerful sect leader to take charge, it will probably be pulled down soon.
At this time, the demon ancestor who traveled thousands of miles to kill Mu Nanyue was the elder who loved Hua Jinrong the most.
Seeing her soul lamp go out, the demon clan ancestor immediately used a secret method to see the previous scene, and saw that the culprits were Meng Huaiqian and Mu Nanyue, as well as Chu Xianzhi who stopped her from escaping. The demon clan ancestor was furious, and he tore open the cracks in time and space and rushed over in an instant.
Only then did this scene happen.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A deafening explosion sounded in the air, and colorful spiritual power accompanied by a sharp gale lit up the entire sky.
Seeing that every attack was easily blocked by Mu Nanyue, the demon ancestor hiding in the dark finally showed up.
He was dressed in a black robe, with an upright posture and a mask on his face to hide his gloomy expression. His deep eyes stared at Mu Nanyue, revealing murderous intent.
"I didn't know that there is another person in the Tribulation Crossing Stage in Yitian Continent!" He exuded a cold and chilly aura, his voice was low and hoarse, and he looked intimidating without even being angry.
Mu Nanyue's red lips curled slightly, "Ancestor of the Demon Clan, there are still many things you don't know, so don't make a fuss."
Demon clan ancestor: "..."
"You are also in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, you should know that cultivation is not easy." He paused, then his deep gaze fell on Chu Xianzhi, "I came here today just to avenge the younger generation of my family, I hope you will not stop me."
Mu Nanyue: "..."
Boy, he’s quite sensible.
When the demon ancestor came, he clearly wanted to kill the two of them.
Seeing that he couldn't defeat Mu Nanyue and didn't want to be laughed at, the demon ancestor set his target on Chu Xianzhi alone.
He thought that Mu Nanyue was also in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and now she was only one step away from ascending to the upper realm. If the two of them fought to the death here, both would suffer.
In the end, no one benefited, so it shouldn't be difficult to get Mu Nanyue to abandon a disciple in the Spirit Transformation Stage.
The demon ancestor is very confident about this.
The next moment, the corners of his mouth froze, and he only heard Mu Nanyue say faintly: "What are you dreaming about!"
Demon clan ancestor: "..."
He was shocked and angry, and couldn't help but raise his voice and said, "You don't agree? Do you know that if you fight with me for a spirit, and if you are injured in the end, you may never be able to ascend to the upper realm in this life!"
Of course, he didn't say this out of consideration for Mu Nanyue.
The demon ancestor had tried it many times before and found that Mu Nanyue's cultivation might be higher than his. He was both frightened and cautious.
In order to prevent his cultivation from being damaged, the demon clan ancestor wisely did not continue fighting, but instead reminded Mu Nanyue of the consequences of their continued fight which would lead to a life-and-death struggle.
Unfortunately, he was wrong.
Mu Nanyue is not in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and she will not give up Chu Xianzhi for anything.
Of course, she would not tell the truth. Mu Nanyue's fingertips flashed with spiritual power, and countless sharp ice cones appeared out of thin air around her, all aimed at the demon ancestor opposite.
Mu Nanyue's voice was calm and he said leisurely, "I can't just let it go. I don't really want to ascend to the upper realm."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xianzhi, who was standing on the ground, trembled all over.
His heartbeat was deafening.
"In Master's heart, I am so important..." Chu Xianzhi murmured to himself, with unconcealable joy in his eyes.
And his panicked heart due to "that incident" before gradually calmed down at this moment.
"Since you don't know how to appreciate my kindness, don't blame me for being ruthless!" The demon ancestor was also angry.
He gave Mu Nanyue so much face, but she didn't know how to appreciate it.
