All the Holy Emperor experts present were secretly shocked when they heard what the great elders of Changyang Prefecture had said. Their gazes toward the Heavenly Enchantress underwent a drastic change as well. Some of them even began to feel extremely fearful of her.
Although they did not know the exact strength of the Heavenly Enchantress, she was actually bold enough to provoke even the protector clans. At the same time, Changyang Qing Yun and the others had revealed that the Heavenly Enchantress was the reason why Changyang Prefecture had been sealed. Just this alone was not something a regular person could do.
The Holy Emperor elders of Mercenary City all became doubtful. A few of them were extremely familiar with the Heavenly Enchantress, but in their understanding, the Heavenly Enchantress definitely did not possess the ability to influence a powerful protector clan.
"Changyang Qing Yun, what's going on? Is there some misunderstanding between you and Shangguan Mu 'er?" The grand elder of Mercenary City asked in doubt. He also refused to believe that the Heavenly Enchantress possessed the strength to shake up a protector clan. Perhaps it was because the Heavenly Enchantress' path of cultivation was different, but none of them could tell her strength. At the same time, the Heavenly Enchantress had concealed her presence, which made it even more difficult for them to see through her strength. As a result, the elders of Mercenary City still believed her to be a Saint Ruler.
Changyang Qing Yun stared at the Heavenly Enchantress with a sunken face. He gritted his teeth and said, "So you're called Shangguan Mu 'er." Afterward, Changyang Qing Yun looked at the grand elder of Mercenary City and said with a pale face, "Back then, the traitor Jianchen and the three magical beasts attacked our Changyang Prefecture and then used a secret technique in an attempt to seal up the World Gate of our miniature world. They wanted to trap everyone in Changyang Prefecture, but our Changyang Prefecture is a protector clan that has existed for over a million years. Our heritage is great, so even if the three magical beasts are no weaker than the Holy Emperor, it's still wishful thinking for them to seal up our protector clan."
Many of the Holy Emperor's experts present secretly nodded when they heard that. They all understood just how powerful the protector clans were. Although the protector clans no longer produced any Holy Emperor experts, their heritage still existed. Even if a Holy Emperor personally came, he would not be able to gain anything. Sealing up the protector clans probably required several Holy Emperor experts working together. Just the three magical beasts who were only at Great Perfection and possessed strength no weaker than the Holy Emperor through origin energy weapons and armor were obviously unable to seal up the protector clans.
Changyang Zu Xiao, Changyang Zu Yunxiao, and the experts of the other protector clans all listened attentively. They all understood one thing. The protector clans basically all possessed the same heritage. They all possessed a powerful Emperor Armament, possessed eighteen divine halls, and possessed a powerful Origin Formation that could kill Holy Emperor experts. Even if the ten protector clans were not the opponents of three Saint Emperors, they would still be able to fend them off with such a great heritage. Sealing a protector clan was basically impossible because sealing a protector clan was much more difficult than defeating a protector clan. As a result, they were extremely curious about how the three magical beasts had sealed up Changyang Prefecture.
Changyang Qing Yun continued, "Afterwards, we activated the Origin Formation that could kill Holy Emperor experts in Changyang Prefecture.
However, activating the formation required a process. Just when all the experts in Changyang Prefecture were activating the formation with all their might, a zither note that could attack the soul suddenly rang out. In just a short moment, everyone in Changyang Prefecture, except for a few Holy Emperor experts, fell unconscious. The activation of the Origin Formation failed, and coupled with the fact that the five of us were exhausted, the three magical beasts found an opportunity to seal up Changyang Prefecture. "
"Changyang Qing Yun, what did you say? The zither note made everyone in Changyang Prefecture fall unconscious, where even Saint Rulers couldn't resist it?" A Holy Emperor questioned Changyang Qing Yun as soon as he finished speaking.
Changyang Qing Yun nodded with a heavy face, "That's right. The soul attack in the zither note is extremely powerful. Only Holy Emperor experts can resist it."
Everyone gasped. It was definitely one of a kind on the Tian Yuan Continent to be able to achieve such a wondrous effect with just music.
The grand elder of Mercenary City asked the Heavenly Enchantress, "Shangguan Mu 'er, is what Changyang Qing Yun said true? Were you really the one who secretly interfered back then? " The Holy Emperor elders from Mercenary City still refused to believe it because the Heavenly Enchantress definitely did not possess such an ability. Her mastery of the zither was indeed extremely great, but they refused to believe that even a Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint Ruler could not resist it.
The Heavenly Enchantress nodded slightly and admitted to her actions. She then looked at Changyang Qing Yun and the others and said, "Are only you protector clans allowed to bully others on the Tian Yuan Continent and no one else is allowed to bully you? If you want revenge, then this little girl will accept it. "
"Hmph, what an ignorant girl. Do you really think you can reign supreme on the Tian Yuan Continent just because you know a little about soul attacks? I'd like to properly experience your way of music today," Changyang Qing Yun became furious and immediately bellowed out.
"Changyang Qing Yun, Shangguan Mu 'er, our Tian Yuan Continent is facing an even greater threat right now. Now's not the time for internal strife. It'll only weaken our strength," the grand elder of Mercenary City tried to persuade the grand elder. The grand elder of Mercenary City tried his best to stop the battle. Changyang Qing Yun was already a Saint King at Great Perfection, so he did not believe that the Heavenly Enchantress was his opponent.
Changyang Qing Yun sneered. He had already secretly made up his mind to properly teach the Heavenly Enchantress a lesson. Just when he wanted to tell the grand elder that he would not harm the Heavenly Enchantress' life, the Heavenly Enchantress beat him to it.
"Don't worry, grand elder. I know what I'm doing. I won't harm his life." The Heavenly Enchantress' voice was cold, but it was filled with great confidence.
Changyang Qing Yun's face stiffened. His pale face immediately became filled with killing intent. That was what he wanted to say, but he had never thought that the Heavenly Enchantress would be bold enough to say something so arrogant. Changyang Qing Yun immediately became furious when he thought about how he, a mighty Holy Emperor at Great Perfection, would be looked down upon by a young girl.
All the experts gathered there froze. They all stared at the Heavenly Enchantress strangely. Many of them secretly thought, "She actually dares to look down on a Holy Emperor at Great Perfection. Does she think she's the Holy Emperor? Even if her mastery of the zither is so great that she can easily make Saint Rulers lose their battle prowess, the soul of a Holy Emperor at Great Perfection is far more powerful than a Saint Ruler. "
The Heavenly Enchantress and Changyang Qing Yun immediately left the miniature world of Mercenary City. After the disturbance, all the experts of the Holy Emperor who had gathered to discuss the World of Forsaken Saints temporarily stopped their discussion. They all went out to watch. The battle between the Heavenly Enchantress who was skilled in musical attacks and the Holy Emperor at Great Perfection of the protector clan was an extremely unique battle. It attracted everyone's interest.
People who were skilled in soul attacks were as rare as phoenix feathers on the Tian Yuan Continent. The only expert among them was the path lord of carnal desires. However, the path lord's specialization was completely different from the Heavenly Enchantress' Way of Music, so the people of the Tian Yuan Continent did not know much about it. It was perfect for them to use this battle to broaden their knowledge.
A hundred kilometers away from Mercenary City, the Heavenly Enchantress hovered in the air with her zither in her arms. She did not give off any energy at all, just like an ordinary person. However, the space around her pulsed in an undetectable manner.
Changyang Qing Yun hovered before her emotionlessly. He wielded a slender sword that shone with a cold light. Energy surged from the sword, and the extremely powerful energy caused the surrounding space to slightly distort.
Several hundred experts of the Holy Emperor gathered around the two of them. All of them hovered ten kilometers away as they stared at the two of them.
"Today, I will make you pay for your arrogance," Changyang Qing Yun coldly said. Changyang Qing Yun said coldly. With a jolt of his sword, it produced a clear thrum as a ten-meter-long sword Qi shot toward the Heavenly Enchantress with lightning speed.
The sword Qi was like a streak of light as it gave off a shocking presence. Wherever it passed by, it would leave behind a clear, black crack.
The Heavenly Enchantress remained as still as a mountain. She gently placed her slender fingers on the zither and plucked a string casually.
"Ding!" With a clear sound, a visible sound wave shot out from the zither, heading toward Changyang Qing Yun's powerful sword Qi.
With a great boom, the inconspicuous sound wave collided with the ten-meter-long sword Qi. The sound wave actually dispersed the shocking sword Qi before continuing on without slowing down at all. It continued toward Changyang Qing Yun.
Changyang Qing Yun's eyes suddenly narrowed. However, the sound wave moved extremely quickly, arriving before him in the blink of an eye. Without any hesitation, Changyang Qing Yun stabbed out with his sword. He had used eighty percent of his strength for the attack.
When the longsword and the sound wave collided, a muffled sound rang out. The violent energy ripples tore the surrounding space apart, causing darkness to appear. The sound wave had been dispersed by Changyang Qing Yun's attack, but Changyang Qing Yun was not happy at all. Just a single sound wave had forced him to use eighty percent of his strength. The Heavenly Enchantress' strength had completely exceeded his expectations.
"Let's see if you can block my Saint Tier Battle Skill!" Changyang Qing Yun bellowed out. He immediately decided to use a Saint Tier Battle Skill in an attempt to end the battle quickly.
"It's a pity that you no longer have the chance to use a Saint Tier Battle Skill," the Heavenly Enchantress coldly said. The Heavenly Enchantress coldly replied. She plucked the strings of the zither again and produced a crisp sound.
The sound of the zither was like heavenly music to the ears of the spectating Saint Kings. Even though it was only a single sound, it was still enough to intoxicate them. However, the same sound exploded in Changyang Qing Yun's head like a thunderclap when he heard it. It caused his body to violently tremble, almost causing him to fall from the sky. The Saint Tier Battle Skill that he was about to use was forced to stop as well.
Changyang Qing Yun felt like the sound of the zither had turned into a huge hammer, viciously striking his soul. It made him dizzy and his consciousness blurred. He felt like his soul was about to shatter.
The Heavenly Enchantress plucked the strings again and another visible sound wave shot out. Before Changyang Qing Yun could even react, the sound wave had pierced through his left chest and pulverized his heart in a single moment.
Changyang Qing Yun grunted and spat out a mouthful of blood. His hazy consciousness finally began to clear up, and he immediately discovered that his heart had been destroyed. His face immediately paled.
"If I wanted to kill you, you would already be dead," the Heavenly Enchantress returned to her posture of holding her zither as she coldly stared at Changyang Qing Yun.
Changyang Qing Yun became stunned. He became dejected. He knew that the Heavenly Enchantress was telling the truth. If she really wanted to kill him, the sound wave only needed to strike his soul, and he would definitely be wiped out.
However, what he struggled to accept was that he, a mighty Holy Emperor at Great Perfection, had actually been defeated so easily. He did not even have the power to fight back before the Heavenly Enchantress. He did not even have the time to use Saint Tier Battle Skills and many other secret techniques.
"Impossible, this is impossible …" Changyang Qing Yun mumbled to himself in despair. He was unable to accept this reality.
In the distance, the several hundred spectating Holy Emperor experts all looked at one another. All of them were filled with disbelief. This result was just far too unexpected. A great elder of a protector clan, a Holy Emperor at Great Perfection, was actually unable to withstand a single strike from the Heavenly Enchantress.
"Just what is her strength? Is she a Holy Emperor at Great Perfection? Or is she a Holy Emperor? "Changyang Zu Xiao became dazed as shock filled his eyes.
The ancestor of the Zaar family also became dumbfounded. He was unable to return to his senses for quite some time. Only after a while did he sigh at the sky. He thought, "Hao Wu is already powerful enough, but I never thought that his daughter would be even more terrifying than him. She defeated a Holy Emperor at Great Perfection so easily. Has Hao Wu's daughter already become a Holy Emperor?"
"Is this really Shangguan Mu 'er? How has she become so powerful in just a few decades? If it were me, I probably wouldn't be her opponent. " The grand elder of Mercenary City was stunned by this as well. He was secretly astounded. Even the other elders beside him were the same. They all stared at the Heavenly Enchantress blankly, unable to say anything for quite some time.
If Ruijin, Hong Lian, and Hei Yu were present, they would definitely discover in shock that the Heavenly Enchantress had become much more powerful than when she fought against the protector clan of Changyang Prefecture.
