It was a rainy night on the long street.
Before entering the scorching summer, the lingering fear of the end of winter invaded the small town, and the mountain rain fell like frozen frost. A bolt of lightning tore through the sky, illuminating a group of swordsmen running on the street. Their hard leather boots stepped on the wet bluestone pavement, but they did not make a sound, showing their excellent body techniques. In front of these swordsmen, there was a figure fleeing in panic. He looked back from time to time and was horrified to find that the distance between them was getting shorter and shorter. The more he wanted to escape, the more the Vital Energy in his Source Sea would not listen to him. The True Name Oath he had made in order to survive began to take effect, causing his cultivation to regress day by day.
"Shuangshuang!" A cold shout came from the darkness, and a black shadow sprang out, nimbly climbing onto the roof. In an instant, the lightning revealed its body. It was a fat cat with half black and half white bodies. This cat jumped over the roof at a speed that did not match its body size, quickly catching up to the figure in front of it. Then it pounced soundlessly, unexpectedly turning into a sharp sword light because of its extreme speed.
The figure in front seemed to sense it and used all his strength to leap forward in danger. He turned his body in midair and took out a sword to block in front of his chest. The sword light collided, and a terrifying tearing force immediately acted on the sword. He could not control it for a moment, and the sword bounced back and hit his chest. He felt an unbearable pain, and with a muffled grunt, vomited blood on the spot.
"You damned cat! If my cultivation hadn't regressed, I would have cut you up and fed you to the rats!" He fell to the ground in a sorry state, cursing angrily. But when he looked closely, there was no cat in front of him. He suddenly felt his hair stand on end and turned his head. He saw that the cat had run behind him at some point, and its pupils were vertical in the rain as it looked at him faintly.
At this time, the pursuers had caught up and blocked his way with the cat. He gritted his teeth and stared at the group of swordsmen. "You don't care about old friendships at all! I have helped you many times in the past. If you are willing to let me go, I will definitely repay you in the future!" The swordsmen only looked at him coldly, not saying a word. He still wanted to say something, but the crowd suddenly parted. A woman draped in a black cloak walked out with a black umbrella. When he saw the woman's face, he immediately laughed bitterly. "It's really you. I should have known that after Feng Jiu ascended to the throne, he would definitely choose you to be the Head of the Disciplinary Council in order to befriend that traitor Yan. But I didn't kill Su Xiaojian. Why are you chasing me? "
The woman said, "You have committed the most crimes, and your influence is the worst. You will receive the highest punishment from the Court Of Sword. Take him down! "
"Here!" Several of them rushed forward and were just about to take out their shackles when suddenly they heard a 'xiu xiu' sound and felt pain in their chests. When they looked down they saw a patch of red maple piercing through their chests. Their consciousness went black and they softly fell down.
"Xu Longxiang, you really know how to escape. I spent a lot of effort to find you. Do you think you still have a foothold in the Immortal World? Why don't you be obedient? After you become a demon, how can these people be a match for you? " A blood-red cloud floated in the rain. A woman in blood-red clothes landed on the roof with a sweet smile. She gently reached out with her slender, snow-white hand, and the blood-red cloud automatically condensed into a red silk ribbon, binding Xu Longxiang.
Xu Longxiang struggled in fear. "I don't want to become a demon. Li Xueyi, let me go!"
Li Hongzhuang smiled sweetly. "What's wrong with becoming a demon? Look at that traitor Yan Li. He's living so well now. It's all because of me."
The woman draped in the cloak drew her sword and slashed, cutting the red silk ribbon in half. Xu Longxiang fell to the ground and wanted to escape, but he was stopped by two people. Several law enforcement disciples took the opportunity to rush forward and restrain him, dragging him into an alley.
"Hmm!" Li Hongzhuang glanced sideways, and a layer of coldness gradually appeared in her beautiful eyes. "Su Xiaorong, I wanted to congratulate you, but now it looks like you're going to die. You've just taken charge of the Court Of Sword, second only to the Sect Master." The curtain of rain suddenly tilted, and each grain transformed into a red maple, shooting down with a biting cold killing intent.
"Retreat!"
Su Xiaorong shouted and used the black umbrella to block the red maple. At the same time, she released her aura to pull her fellow disciples back. The red maple landed on the ground where they had been standing a moment ago, lifting up a shocking number of limestone slabs and smashing them down. She quickly swung her sword down, but the number was too great. A few law enforcement disciples beside her barely managed to cut the slabs into two before they were hit. Their chests caved in, and it looked like they would not survive.
"Li Xueyi!" She shouted angrily. With a twist of her wrist, her Natal Sword brazenly stabbed into the ground in front of her. Her aura domain instantly expanded to its limit. It was as if an invisible hand was madly absorbing the surrounding star power, condensing into the strongest form of her Law Domain — the Iron Judge.
Like a True Lord's divine body, the Iron Judge appeared and blocked all the limestone slabs, saving the lives of the remaining law enforcement disciples.
"Oh, you've manifested to this extent. Your cultivation path is very interesting, but you're still far from great success." As Li Hongzhuang spoke, she suddenly felt a ferocious gaze. She looked over and saw a fat cat staring at her with its fur standing on end. She smiled. "You're a loyal protector of your master. I know that your race has a special trait — speed. If there's no space, what can you do even if you're fast? "
As soon as she finished speaking, dozens of red silk appeared, covering the space around them and rapidly contracting. It meowed and tried to use its movement technique to charge forward, but the space became increasingly narrow. Soon, it was unable to move. It was bound by the red silk and was getting tighter and tighter.
"Shuangshuang!" Su Xiaorong pulled out her sword and pounced, but Li Hongzhuang pushed her back. Just as the fat cat was about to be turned into minced meat, a sword light cut through the air and tore apart the red silk. Shuangshuang landed on the ground and ran back to Su Xiaorong with a meow.
Li Hongzhuang looked in the direction of the sword light. Her beautiful eyes brightened and revealed a charming expression. "You're finally willing to come find me."
Su Xiaorong also looked over and saw Yan Li appear at the end of the long street. She immediately relaxed.
"What use is Xu Longxiang to you? Why did you go through so much trouble to kidnap him?" Yan Li said from afar.
Li Hongzhuang's expression turned cold. "You don't know? That means you're not here to apologize."
Yan Li was confused. "What did I do to need to apologize to you?"
"Fine, this is the little thief you were talking about!" Li Hongzhuang said hatefully. She immediately turned into a bloody light and left.
"Is the headmaster alright?" Yan Li walked towards Su Xiaorong. She shook her head and said, "She must have gone after Xu Longxiang."
"I'll go." Yan Li jumped onto the roof and chased after her. Not long after, he saw Li Hongzhuang using the red silk to tie up Xu Longxiang. She was about to leave. He shouted, "Leave him here!"
"Why?" Li Hongzhuang tilted her head coldly.
Yan Li jumped onto an overhanging eave and glanced at the bound Xu Longxiang. The latter was constantly twisting and struggling, but when he saw Yan Li coming over, he calmed down and watched the situation calmly.
"He's tried to harm me time and time again. You should know that I won't let him go," Yan Li said.
Li Hongzhuang sneered. "It's precisely because he's tried to harm you time and time again that I won't let him die. I want him alive to disgust you."
Yan Li said, "What's in it for you?"
Li Hongzhuang said, "Do you still remember what you said in the Evil Prison?"
Yan Li said, "I remember."
Li Hongzhuang said, "You remember?"
Yan Li said, "I said that when you heard that I was sent back to the Immortal Realm, you should know that I'm back."
Li Hongzhuang said, "You also said that you'd look for me as soon as you came back."
Yan Li said, "You saw that there was an internal conflict in the Court Of Sword. I was delayed."
Li Hongzhuang said, "Is that so? Why did I hear that you and Gu Caiwei went to the Sword God Villa for a rendezvous? That seductress attracted you so much that you forgot all about me!"
Yan Li said, "You, Li Hongzhuang, shouldn't be that kind of woman."
Li Hongzhuang said, "Then what should I be?"
Yan Li said, "At least for your ambitions, it's a small matter."
"To me, it's a big matter!" Li Hongzhuang left a cold look, picked up Xu Longxiang, and turned into light and left.
The Leaving Cliff was still damaged, so Yan Li couldn't chase after them. He could only return to report to Su Xiaorong. When Su Xiaorong heard that Xu Longxiang had been kidnapped again, she said worriedly, "This time, the pursuit failed. That bastard will definitely lean towards the Devil Realm. I'm afraid it won't be easy to catch him again."
Yan Li said, "Don't worry, Headmaster. I'll try my best to catch him. I'll make sure he receives the highest punishment from the Court Of Sword."
Su Xiaorong shook her head and said, "You still have a bet to make. Go."
"I'll take my leave first." Yan Li took his leave and continued on his way to his original destination.
After Li Hongzhuang kidnapped Xu Longxiang, she quickly left Luo Yu's territory and arrived at a valley with a bright moon hanging high in the sky. She threw Xu Longxiang on the ground and ignored him. Xu Longxiang couldn't move his body because of the red silk, but his eyes were darting around. The bright moon shone down, illuminating the woman in blood-red clothes in front of him. Despite her melancholy, she was still beautiful and moving. She wasn't a demoness who could shake the Three Realms, but a little woman who was hurt by love.
"Hehe, Li Xueyi, I know you have a close relationship with that traitor Yan, but I didn't expect the two of you to be together." He looked at the beauty in front of him and thought about how she had long been in Yan Li's pocket. He was so jealous that his whole body ached.
"Shut up!" Li Hongzhuang suddenly flicked her sleeves and sent Xu Longxiang flying. He crashed heavily into the cliff wall. Xu Longxiang fell to the ground and almost couldn't catch his breath. He hurriedly shouted, "Don't, don't kill me, I'm still useful to you. Hurry up and turn me into a demon. I can help you deal with Yan Li!"
"From now on, do whatever I tell you to do. If you dare say another word of nonsense, I'll send you back." When Li Hongzhuang narrowed her eyes, they seemed very long and narrow. Coupled with the upturned corners of her eyes, she looked indescribably beautiful and domineering. She casually threw out a heart.
When Xu Longxiang saw the seemingly beating demon heart, his own heart started beating uncontrollably. He had been so against it before, but after meeting Yan Li and accidentally learning some of the "truth," he felt that turning into a demon wasn't too bad. After all, the Immortal Realm couldn't contain him anymore.
He gritted his teeth, grabbed the heart, and pressed it against his heart.
