It was said that in ancient times, a barbarian tribe used a forbidden method in a bid to summon a god to descend into the world, only to summon out a terrifying demon baby.

After the demon baby was born, a disaster befell this world.

The demonic baby was extremely terrifying. It was bloodthirsty, and it enjoyed destruction and slaughter.

After he was born, he slaughtered barbarian tribes one after another, feeding on their flesh and blood to grow into a stronger demon child.

Then, the calamity swept through the entire world. For a time, life was in misery, and countless sects were destroyed.

Later on, it was said that over a hundred mighty cultivators had burnt their Essence Souls as the price in order to seal it.

No one had expected that this terrifying demonic child would reappear in the world again.

Now that demons were rife in the world, the reappearance of the demon child was adding fuel to the fire.

The world was probably going to experience another destructive calamity.

Looking at the fate of the Heavenly Water Pavilion, Perfected Yu Hua seemed to see the fate of his sect, and chills went down his spine.

Based on the words of the surviving disciple, Perfected Yu Hua understood that the sect master of the Heavenly Water Pavilion—Shan Ruoshui, had actually stimulated the tremendous power of the Sky Water Sword with her blood essence and Essence Soul as a sacrifice.

However, she still could not kill the demon child. Even the Sky Water Sword was devoured by the demon child.

Upon hearing this, Perfected Yu Hua sighed endlessly in his heart.

Once Shan Ruoshui did that, it was practically equivalent to her soul dissipating.

Not even some men could be as bold as her.

He thought about how this person was only thirty years old back then and was already the sect master of the Heavenly Water Pavilion.

Not only was she extraordinarily talented, but she was also unmatched in terms of looks.

Perfected Yu Hua could not help but feel a sense of pity that she had died just like that, and her soul had even dissipated.

The heavens were really jealous of heroic geniuses!

The next day, the news of two consecutive events shook the entire Grand Xia Dynasty.

The first was that the greater demon that wreaked havoc in the Qing Prefecture, Shi Potian, had been eliminated by a mysterious expert.

When this news spread, it was truly satisfying. The entire country was excited as countless citizens rushed to spread the word and kowtowed to thank the mysterious expert who had done a big favor.

However, soon, the news of the Heavenly Water Pavilion in the Qing Prefecture being destroyed by the Demon Child was like a basin of cold water, instantly extinguishing everyone’s joy.

For a time, the world was shaken, and everyone was panicking. It was as if a new wave rose before the first wave subsided.

Many male cultivators felt sorrow and pity for Shan Ruoshui’s death.

They even felt that their youth was over.

Shan Ruoshui was definitely the number one beauty in the cultivation world of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Over the years, countless people from the various large sects had a crush on her and pursued her madly.

However, this frost beauty was dedicated to cultivation.

Especially since she became the sect master, she strived to strengthen the sect.

In ten years, she had developed the Heavenly Water Pavilion into a first-tier sect in the Great Xia Dynasty.

However, who would have thought that such a heavenly, peerless beauty would die just like that?

This made many people who had a crush on her feel extremely sad.

Of course, apart from sorrow, everyone in the various large sects of the Great Xia Dynasty began to fear for their lives.

They had heard of the infamous demon child.

They were afraid that their sect would be next after the Heavenly Water Pavilion was destroyed.

Of course, the person panicking the most was Zhu Xiaotian from the Zhu Family.

Because these two things had once again broken the development trajectory of his memories from his previous life.

Everything was developing in an unpredictable direction.

He clearly remembered from his previous life that Shi Potian only appeared after the Divine Weapon Rankings were revealed. And obtaining the scarlet copper hammer helped him ascend to the 9th position, attracting the attention of various powers.

Then, he was surrounded and beaten up by the various large factions. In the end, he was killed by the Jade Pure Dao Sect, while the scarlet copper hammer fell in the hands of the Jade Pure Dao Sect.

At that time, the Heavenly Water Pavilion was not destroyed, nor was there any demon child appearing.

The Sky Water Sword of Shan Ruoshui, the sect master of the Heavenly Water Pavilion, was ranked fifth. She also obtained rich rewards from the rankings, allowing her strength to improve significantly.

However, from yesterday onwards, the development of the situation became incomprehensible to him.

What is going on? Who had killed Shi Potian? Where did this demonic child come from?
