“Damn it all...” White Robe Demon Master cursed under his breath. For obvious reasons, he was feeling rather annoyed right now. It was at this moment White Robe Demon Master sensed something and looked in a certain direction. A short while later, a strange expression overcame his features. He looked excited and astonished at the same time. “They didn’t escape?” It was because he could sense two powerful and familiar auras deep in the inner region of the star. He was so familiar with them that he only wished that he could drink their blood and eat their flesh. One of them belonged to the person who stole his Rakshasa God Blood, and the other was the person who owned the Earthly Sovereign Bell. He knew that their names were Feng Qingyou and Ye Qing. White Robe Demon Master was ecstatic that he finally found his quarries as a matter of course, but he was also quite astonished. The Star Moon Butterflies had sensed him and escaped long ago, leaving even their homes behind. However, Ye Qing and Feng Qingyou had chosen to stay behind. Did they not know about the characteristics of the Star Moon Butterfly? That was impossible. If they didn’t know, then they wouldn’t have chosen to stay here. Did they not notice the commotion then? That was even more impossible. They weren’t blind or deaf. There was no way they could have missed an entire colony of Star Moon Butterflies evacuating the area. In that case, why didn’t they run? He couldn’t understand it. They couldn’t be waiting for me, could they? Suddenly, the ludicrous thought flashed through his mind. Was it really that ludicrous? Ye Qing and Feng Qingyou had chosen to stay behind instead of running away. Obviously, it wasn’t because they had had a change of heart and decided to give him their heads. It could only be because they wished to fight him. But where on earth did they find the courage to make such an option? Was it their cultivation level? He didn’t even fear the Sages of the Profound Alliance. What could two puny Half-Sages possibly do against him? Was it the Earthly Sovereign Bell? The Earthly Sovereign Bell was powerful, sure, but that depended on the user. In the hands of the Earthly Sovereign, it was one of the most powerful Strange Artifacts in the world. Anyone stupid enough to stand in its way would be annihilated into atoms. But in the hands of a Half-Sage? It was like a child trying to swing a greatsword: laughable. So, what gave them the confidence to wait for him? “Interesting.” Thoughtful he might be, White Robe Demon Master did not hesitate. He walked toward their location. He didn’t know why Ye Qing and Feng Qingyou dared to wait for him. It was possible that they had set up a gigantic trap for him. He didn’t care. True strength could crush all conspiracies and plots like nothing. He was White Robe Demon Master. What did he have to fear from a bunch of weaklings? White Robe Demon Master strolled forward confidently. It looked like he was taking his time, but he was really moving at an incredible speed. He quickly arrived at Ye Qing and Feng Qingyou’s hideouts. He did not see any death trap or ambush upon arrival. He only saw two people. Ye Qing was leaning against a massive five-colored tree and biting a shoot of grass between his teeth. He looked lazy and uncaring. Feng Qingyou was standing in a bush of flowers. A breeze shook the petals and made her look like a divine being. One person was lazy, the other was relaxed. One man was grinning, and one woman was smiling. They weren’t nervous, tense, or afraid. One would almost think that they were waiting for their close friend, not their nemesis. Ye Qing greeted White Robe Demon Master smilingly. He looked confident and comfortable. “You were waiting for me?” White Robe Demon Master did not act immediately. What cat didn’t play with the mice it caught before it killed them? How else could he resolve the hatred entrenched in his heart? Ye Qing removed the grass and answered, “Of course we are.” White Robe Demon Master asked, “Did you know I wasn’t dead from the beginning?” “Given your strength, it seems impossible that you could have died so easily.” Ye Qing smiled. “Just the same, we knew that it was only a matter of time you found us. You have reason to chase us to the ends of the earth as well.” “At least you’re self-aware.” White Robe Demon Master nodded. “So, what are you doing here? Did you give up after realizing that there’s no chance you can escape me?” “No, no... how could you imagine such a thing?” Ye Qing shook his head scornfully like he was talking to a retard. “You’re a thousand-year-old fossil. You can’t be that naive.” A hint of anger burned in White Robe Demon Master’s eyes. “I take it that you’re going to resist until the bitter end?” Ye Qing replied indifferently, “You’re so certain that it would end in our defeat even though the battle hasn’t begun yet. What if it turns out that we’re evenly-matched?” “Evenly-matched?” White Robe Demon Master scoffed. “You think that the likes of you can match me evenly?” “No one can say for certain until the fight begins, so let’s cut the chatter and go already!” Ye Qing stood up and pulled his arm back like he was drawing a bow. Then, he punched like he was shooting an arrow. His fist was fast, but his intent was faster. Even more his arm had straightened, his fist intent had appeared in front of White Robe Demon Master with seemingly enough force to shoot down the sun itself. “Hmph. You’ve overestimated yourselves. If you desire a quick death, then I shall grant you that.” White Robe Demon master raised his palm and pushed forward. First, the sharp fist intent was pushed apart. Then, the violent winds were scattered into nothing. It took him just one palm to flatten all opposition and return peace to the world. However, the times were everchanging, and nothing could stay the same forever. In just the blink of an eye, evils and rebellions quickly ruined the peace and plunged the world into chaos. Newest update provided by novel⟡fire.net The nations shattered, the mountains and rivers trembled, the evils rampaged, and the slaughter and chaos were unending. Ye Qing and Feng Qingyou instantly became the helpless victims of the age of chaos. In the age of chaos, humans were worth less than dogs. Despite that, Ye Qing calmly responded with another punch. White Robe Demon Master might have a palm that could ruin eternal peace, but he possessed a punch that could still qian and kun. Ye Qing bent down slightly and threw an uppercut. Force merged with qi, and intent melded with spirit. A sun rose from the east all the way to the center of the sky, repelling all evils from the nine continents. A moon rose from the west and cast shadows across the land. Its clear light felt like dreams that illuminated one’s sleep. Sun and moon traveled side by side and illuminated heaven and earth together. Such was the Sun Moon Impetus. The combined illumination of the sun and moon successfully repelled the evils and quelled the chaos. One punch was enough to still the wobbling mountains and rivers. Ding ding... dong dong... It was at this moment Feng Qingyou plucked the air in front of her. There were no strings, and yet string music echoed in the air as if in celebration. “The Formless Swords of Seven Strings?” White Robe Demon Master had just taken a step when he abruptly stopped moving and waved his sleeve sideways. What looked like a mountain of thick, dense aura appeared around him. At the same time, many formless swords struck his sleeve. A series of metallic clangs rang out, and White Robe Demon Master’s sleeves rippled heavily like water. It neutralized all of the attacks. Feng Qingyou did not stop though. She kept playing and summoning more and more formless swords into existence. In just the blink of an eye, sword qi filled heaven and earth, and sword intent overflowed like the sea. This was one of the ultimate arts of Purity Sword[1], the Formless Swords of Seven Strings. The Formless Swords of Seven Strings was a sword art that treated qi like a qin, and sound like a sword. Although it was invisible and formless, it was anything but meek. So long as the qi was unending and the sound was ceaseless, then the swords would never end. Therefore, the longer the battle dragged on, the greater the Formless Swords of Seven Strings became. Because of this, White Robe Demon Master’s sleeve was eventually pierced by the sword qi. Anger flashed in White Robe Demon Master’s eyes. In his eyes, he could squish Ye Qing and Feng Qingyou like insects. That was why he could not tolerate taking any damage from them, not even if that damage was just his sleeve. 1. Jesus this is so long ago I almost forgot. ☜
