Chapter 216 - Chaotic Battles (2/2)

Zuoqiu Yang’s eyes were filled with fury, so much so that blue veins were even protruding on his face and neck. It made him look like he had suffered Qi Deviation. Roaring in anger, he grabbed an Immortal’s Sword that was lying on the ground and turned into a swift radiance that flew toward the battlefield.

Having sustained grave injuries from Xiao Chen’s soul power, Zuoqiu Qitian was currently circulating his energy to heal himself. When he sensed his disciple approaching, he immediately looked over and saw Zuoqiu Yang speeding over. He yelled, “Who are you?! Return at once!”

“I’m Zuoqiu Yang! I came here to help you, Lord Ancestor!”

With that said, a cold glint flashed in Zuoqiu Yang’s eyes and he swiftly attacked Xiao Chen who was suspended in midair.

“Xiao Chen, hand me your life!”

Xiao Chen, who was being controlled to fight the mysterious woman, sensed the danger and said in alarm, “What’s that flying over?! Su Xiaomei, hurry up and look!”

Su Xiaomei ignored him and continued to battle the mysterious woman. Xiao Chen knew danger was coming but he was unable to control his body to resist that ambushing murderous intent.

Right then, a red glint flashed in the Bloodied Mad Swordsman’s eyes. Noticing the ambushing Zuoqiu Yang, he bellowed, “Where did this nobody come from? Do you think you have a place in a battle like this? Scram!” He flicked his wide sleeve, sending a boundless force slamming into Zuoqiu Yang.

A loud explosion resounded. Zuoqiu Yang was sent flying more than a hundred feet away. While coughing up blood, he cried, “Why?! I have power close to the Nirvana Realm…!”

Xiao Chen sighed in relief. On the other side, Yu Linglong was finally growing impatient with the battle against the Corpse Puppet. She placed her hands on her hips and seethed in anger. “D*mn it! Why can’t I kill you? I’m not playing with you anymore!”

The battlefield was growing increasingly chaotic. Right then, three old men with an intense immortal air to them were observing the battle unfolding in the Zuoqiu family estate on a high platform in the distance. They were Perfected Immortal Fengxi, the Elder of the Pavilion of Swords, and the Elder of the Pavilion of Thoughts of the Xianyong Sect.

“I’m getting confused; is the kid being controlled? Why is he confusing an ally for his enemy?”

“Looks to be the case… Then do we make our appearances?”

“Make no haste. Let’s watch for a while longer. I have the feeling that someone even stronger will be coming from the Devils’ sects.”

“Hold on! That Corpse Puppet is ambushing that kid!”

Out of the blue, the Corpse Puppet that was fighting Yu Linglong switched directions to attack Xiao Chen instead. Meanwhile, fifteen minutes had passed and Su Xiaomei’s soul power was finally running out, forcing her to return to the jade pendant.

Having finally recovered control over his body, Xiao Chen couldn’t be bothered with how intense the battle between the mysterious woman and the Bloodied Mad Swordsman was. He immediately unfolded his Immortal-override Steps and fled the battlefield. Little did he expect that the Corpse Puppet would target him and give chase.

“D*mn it! Scram, you dead thing!” He hastily circulated his True Energy and thrust his halberd straight into the Corpse Puppet’s chest. The only sound he heard was a clanging noise. To his surprise, the incomparably sharp blade of the halberd couldn’t deal even the slightest bit of harm on the puppet. On the contrary, he was the one who got hurt by the puppet’s eruption of power. The power was so explosive that it sent him flying.

Xiao Chen was alarmed. Not even a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator would be able to easily take that hit earlier. Just how outrageously strong was this Corpse Puppet? Before he could think about it, the puppet suddenly launched a palm attack at him and formed a huge palm print where he stood. Instantly, dust scattered everywhere.

“F*ck! What a monster!” Xiao Chen cursed. He turned around to run, but the Corpse Puppet wasn’t just great at offense and defense. Its speed was also not beneath his. Even more terrifying was that it knew no pain or fear of death.

For some reason, the Corpse Puppet wouldn’t launch a deadly attack each time it caught up with him and would just slam its palm on his side, causing an eruption of Qi wave that sent him flying. He wasn’t sure if it did this on purpose, but he was nonetheless left battered and exhausted.

Before long, Xiao Chen was filthy from head to toe. His clothes were in tatters and covered in dirt as if he was an ancient treasure that was just dug up. In the distance, Ye Wuxin sneered repeatedly as if he was the one who had ordered the Corpse Puppet to do so.

Naturally, Xiao Chen noticed him sneering. He cursed inwardly, “D*mn the Corpse Refinery Sect! I’m declaring war against you today!”

He put away the Spirit-annihilation Halberd and took out his Blood Lotus Demon Blade. Wiping the blade with his palm, the blood from his wound swiftly flowed into the veined pattern on the blade and then downward.

“F*ck! I’m going all out! I know you can understand me. Right now, I want you to cut that monster in half for me!”

He didn’t know how much blood he fed the blade, but the Blood Lotus Demon Blade seemed like it finally had its fill. The blade trembled nonstop as it emanated a blinding red light, dyeing nearly the entire sky above the Zuoqiu family estate red. Everyone watched in utter shock.
