No one said a word in response to the man's questioning. At that moment, there were many people gathered around Yun Xin Loft. They were all watching the sudden turn of events.
Ru'er was originally in the backyard, but when she heard the commotion, she rushed out. However, she was blocked by Dong Xiaowan. "Ru'er, quickly go back. Don't come out!"
Ru'er was the weakest.
"So it's the two of you. I know you. You are Dong Xiaowan, the catalyst herb from back then. Yi Yun's shop was handed to you to manage."
"And you, you are Fairy Youqin, right? You were involved in the destruction of the Myriad Immortal Pavilion."
The cloaked man's voice was extremely unpleasant. Clearly, he knew Yi Yun's situation very well.
At that moment, Fairy Youqin's gaze penetrated the shadow of the man's cloak and saw half his face.
It was an extremely pale face that suffused specks of blood. The blood seemed to seep out from beneath the man's skin, making him look hideous and terrifying.
Fairy Youqin's heart palpitated. The face looked somewhat familiar!
"You … You are … Skyfire Sacred Hands!?"
Although the person in front of her had changed drastically, his facial features remained the same. He was no doubt Skyfire Sacred Hands!
Upon hearing Fairy Youqin's words, the man laughed out loud.
"To think that someone still remembers me. Hahaha! The feeling of being remembered by someone is quite nice! "
"You are right. It's me!"
The man pulled open the cloak over his head. His pale face was covered in specks of blood. It left people's scalps tingling.
Was this really Skyfire Sacred Hands!?
Many people present had witnessed the Grand Alchemical-cum-Medical Meet twenty years ago. Back then, Skyfire Sacred Hands was in high spirits. All the major factions in Myriad City treated him respectfully.
Later on, although Skyfire Sacred Hands had suffered defeat in front of Yi Yun and had his Skyfire snatched away, his status was still far beyond the reach of ordinary people. Who could have imagined that he would end up in such a state twenty years later?
"You … cultivated in a heretical technique? Or … "
Fairy Youqin could tell that Skyfire Sacred Hands's aura and looks were not the only thing that had changed compared to twenty years ago. His strength had greatly increased as well. A method that could strengthen a person to such an extent in such a short period of time was definitely not orthodox.
"Although Yi Yun snatched your Soaring Serpent Skyfire, you did not lose everything. Just to seek revenge on Yi Yun, you ended up in a state that is neither human nor ghost. Is it worth it?"
Fairy Youqin questioned sternly. She could even sense a cadaveric aura from Skyfire Sacred Hands's body.
Skyfire Sacred Hands roared with laughter when he heard that. "Yi Yun? What a joke! How could he be worth it? The only thing worthy of me doing this is endless power! "
"I'm truly thankful for the decision I made all those years ago. Now that I've been in seclusion for twenty years, I've finally come out. My lifespan has increased tenfold, and my strength has skyrocketed. How can you ants possibly imagine all of this?"
"Killing Yi Yun is just to resolve a mental demon of mine. That's all! By the way, the Myriad Divine Territory has been left to me. From the moment I came out of seclusion, your destruction was destined! "
As Skyfire Sacred Hands spoke, he glanced at Yun Xin Loft. The corners of his mouth suffused a sinister smile. "This storefront is such an eyesore. I'll tear it down first!"
As Skyfire Sacred Hands spoke, he made a grabbing motion. The entire Yun Xin Loft quaked violently, as though it was about to collapse.
"You!" Dong Xiaowan turned anxious. This was a medicinal clinic that Yi Yun had left for her. She had put in twenty years of painstaking effort to make it expand. Now, it was the biggest medicinal clinic in Myriad City.
Although Dong Xiaowan did not say it out loud, she was thinking about the words Yi Yun had said before he left. She knew that Yi Yun would return to take a look. She looked forward to that day. She wanted to show Yi Yun a completely different Yun Xin Loft when he returned. Even though Dong Xiaowan knew that Yi Yun did not care about these businesses, she still wanted to do her best to satisfy him.
But now, twenty years of painstaking effort was about to be destroyed overnight because of a casual strike from Skyfire Sacred Hands!
Rumble!
Yun Xin Loft began to collapse. Large swaths of pillars tumbled down, smashing through the shelves. Pill bottles tumbled and shattered to the ground!
Upon seeing this scene, Dong Xiaowan's heart was bleeding!
She knew that she could not stop any of this. All she could do was look angrily at Skyfire Sacred Hands. Her gaze seemed to pierce through him!
"Lass! I can sense the killing intent in your eyes. Against my strength, a mere Dao Manifestation realm warrior like you actually has killing intent. Good, very good! "
When Skyfire Sacred Hands said that, he laughed sinisterly. "Since you are one of Yi Yun's people, and Yi Yun can purge the plague, I'll plant a new demonic servant in your body today. Let's see if Yi Yun can purge it!"
As Skyfire Sacred Hands spoke, he struck out at Dong Xiaowan!
Skyfire Sacred Hands's strike seemed to blot out the world. Instantly, dark clouds filled the sky as demonic auras surged. People could only see an evil spirit roaring in Skyfire Sacred Hands's palm!
It looked like a human face that was contorted in pain, as though it was about to devour everything.
"Boom! Boom!
Boom! "Wherever the demonic wind passed, the Yun Xin Loft behind Dong Xiaowan completely exploded. It was reduced to countless fragments that flew in every direction! The people that came close were injured by the fragments as they fell to the ground with tragic cries.
As for Dong Xiaowan, she was the first to bear the brunt of the roaring evil spirit!
She remained motionless, not because she did not want to dodge, but because she knew it was impossible for her to do so.
"Phew!"
As the evil spirit entered her body, Dong Xiaowan grunted tragically. She retreated rapidly as the blood drained from her face.
She had once had an evil spirit enter her body, so she was very familiar with the feeling. But this time, the evil spirit in her body was more than a hundred times stronger than before!
"Evil spirit! You actually controlled an evil spirit! As a disciple of the Nine Cauldron Alchemical Sect, you actually abandoned yourself and sold your soul to an evil spirit!? "
Fairy Youqin said loudly. She had previously sensed a familiar feeling from Skyfire Sacred Hands. So it was the power of an evil spirit!
"Selling my soul to a demonic servant? What a joke! " Skyfire Sacred Hands looked at Fairy Youqin. "You are very interesting. There seems to be a tiny remnant of a demonic servant in your dantian. Why? Did Yi Yun not completely remove the demonic servant in your dantian, or did he deliberately leave behind a tiny bit of the demonic servant's strength, allowing you to increase your strength while refining it?"
"Good, very good. You actually have the guts to use the demonic servant as a whetstone for your strength. In that case, I'll give you a pleasant surprise!"
As Skyfire Sacred Hands spoke, he struck Fairy Youqin with his palm once again!
It was a palm that similarly contained a terrifying demonic aura. It sealed the void, and even with Fairy Youqin's strength, there was no way she could dodge it!
Fairy Youqin grunted as she hurriedly retreated. Her brows were tightly knitted together as her dantian was in extreme pain.
The evil spirit that Skyfire Sacred Hands had planted in her was even stronger than Dong Xiaowan's, much less compared to the one from twenty years ago.
