With that said, Xian 'e breathed her last. Having already cultivated into a fairy, her spiritual energy was instantly sucked dry by Lord Zhaoling. After her death, her body instantly dissipated, transforming into specks of starlight that completely vanished from the Three Realms.
She'd done countless evil deeds to save money. Dissipating after death could be considered retribution.
Lord Zhaoling, who'd just drunk his fill of Xian 'e's blood, regained his previous appearance. His pale, bloodless face returned to the state he'd been in when Jiujiu and Lord Dong Yuan first saw him.
However, Xian 'e's blood still remained at the corner of his mouth. Coupled with his ferocious face and beast-like eyes, he looked indescribably eerie.
Lord Zhaoling gritted his teeth. "A slut will always be a slut."
She actually dared to betray him.
Lord Zhaoling's eyes flashed fiercely at the thought of that person revealing his Achilles' heel before she died.
If he'd known that the slut would betray him, he would have eaten her yesterday.
Although he'd long known that Lord Zhaoling was deranged, he hadn't expected him to be so deranged. He'd actually killed Xian 'e, who'd worked so hard for him for so long.
He just didn't know what Xian 'e was thinking before she died.
But when he thought of the look in her eyes before she died and how she'd revealed Lord Zhaoling's Achilles' heel, she must have regretted it.
It was too late.
Jiujiu glanced sideways at Lord Dong Yuan and said, "Attack."
Lord Zhaoling had already gone mad. They had to kill him as soon as possible. Otherwise, he'd bring disaster to the Three Realms.
Lord Zhaoling saw through Jiujiu and Lord Dong Yuan's intentions. He knew that they wanted to kill him in one fell swoop. With a wave of his hand, demonic Qi surged out. He sneered. "In your dreams."
The three of them instantly engaged in battle.
As the three of them fought, the demonic Qi in the Heaven Realm seemed to have a mind of its own. It began to attack Jiujiu and Lord Dong Yuan. Jiujiu was caught off guard and was injured by the demonic Qi.
Touching her injured arm, Jiujiu immediately circulated her energy to expel the demonic Qi. However, she discovered that not only was the demonic Qi unable to be expelled, it was even devouring her spiritual energy.
This feeling …
Jiujiu suddenly looked up at Lord Zhaoling.
Zhaoling Jun's face was contented as he said slowly, "Tsk, I was discovered."
Sensing that something was wrong with Jiujiu, Lord Dong Yuan immediately used all of his strength to repel Lord Zhaoling's attacks. He quickly retreated to Jiujiu's side and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
"The Demonic Qi can't be removed." Jiujiu's expression was ugly because her spiritual energy had been devoured by the Demonic Qi. She stared straight at the Zhaoling Lord and gritted her teeth. "What did you do to me?"
Lord Zhaoling chuckled. "Do you know how I devoured all the Immortal Monarchs of the Heaven Realm?"
Jiujiu suddenly had a bad feeling.
Looking at Jiujiu's ugly expression, Lord Zhaoling laughed wildly: "That's how it is. I added a trace of demonic Qi into the Immortal Nectar that they drank, and used the demonic Qi to erode their spiritual energy. When the time was right, I would swallow them all.
Did you know? Lord Wuyuanjun, who was on good terms with you before, had the best taste. I really didn't expect his cultivation to be higher than an Upper Origin Lord's! "
At this point, Lord Zhaoling seemed to recall Lord Wuyuanjun's taste and couldn't help licking the corner of his lips.
Paired with those crimson eyes, Lord Zhaoling looked even more like a demon than the demons of the Underworld.
Lord Dong Yuan didn't expect the Demonic Qi to be so powerful. He wanted to channel his spiritual energy to drive the Demonic Qi out of Jiujiu's body.
Lord Zhaoling stood in the distance and said sarcastically, "I advise you to give up. This Demonic Qi will give birth to you as soon as it touches you. No one can drive it away …"
Jiujiu grabbed Lord Dong Yuan's hand that was about to continue channeling spiritual energy into her body. "In that case, Lord Zhaoling, how do you control this Demonic Qi?"
The more Lord Zhaoling spoke, the more curious Jiujiu became. If the Demonic Qi was so powerful, how did Lord Zhaoling control it?
"I'm different from you. Naturally, I can control the Demonic Qi." Lord Zhaoling smiled happily. "When you came, you said that if you lost, you would live and die together. No matter how you die, you will die. Give me all your spiritual energy!"
Lord Zhaoling laughed. "With your spiritual energy, I will definitely be able to tear open the void …"
Tear open the void and become a god of other worlds.
Lord Dong Yuan had sent Jiujiu away for a thousand years, and Jiujiu had returned with such power.
In a short thousand years, she was already so powerful. What if he used his own cultivation technique?
Lord Zhaoling's eyes reddened at the thought of that. He was no longer satisfied with being a god of the Hong Meng Continent. He wanted to be a god of all worlds.
"Why should I?"
Jiujiu chuckled. Even though her Spiritual Qi was being continuously devoured and her face was extremely pale, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly and her eyes were filled with mockery. "Even if we die, we'll take you down with us so that you won't harm others."
"Your spiritual energy is about to be sucked dry by the Demonic Qi. When you run out of spiritual energy, let's see how you'll talk back."
Without spiritual energy, Jiujiu was a mortal. Not to mention how old Jiujiu was, how could Jiujiu's mortal body withstand such dense Demonic Qi?
When that happened, even Lord Dong Yuan wouldn't be able to save her.
Lord Dong Yuan and Liu Su had deep feelings for each other. If Liu Su died, Lord Dong Yuan wouldn't live alone.
Lord Zhaoling couldn't help but laugh when he thought of that.
Lord Dong Yuan became even more anxious when he heard Lord Zhaoling's words. He coldly glanced at Lord Zhaoling and transmitted his spiritual energy to Jiujiu. "I won't let anything happen to you."
Even though he had said that he would live and die together, when it really happened, how could he bear to let Jiujiu die?
Jiujiu was someone he would rather die to protect. How could he watch as Jiujiu died?
Lord Dong Yuan's spiritual energy surged into Jiujiu's body like a tidal wave. The feeling from before once again surged into her heart.
Lord Dong Yuan's eyes gradually became resolute, as if he had made a decision.
Lord Dong Yuan's expression reminded Jiujiu of how he had sent her to the other world.
Jiujiu grabbed Lord Dong Yuan's arm and gritted her teeth. "What? You want to send me away again?"
Back then, she wasn't prepared and was sent away by Lord Dong Yuan. Now, she would rather die than be separated from Lord Dong Yuan.
Lord Dong Yuan didn't expect Jiujiu to see through his intentions. He was stunned for a moment before he grabbed Jiujiu's hand and whispered, "I don't want anything to happen to you. This demonic qi originates from this world. If you leave this world, it will be restricted. Only then can I protect you."
"What about you?"
Jiujiu's face was pale and clean. Her eyes were bright and cold as she looked at Lord Dong Yuan. "Cutting through the void requires half of your soul power."
Without half of his soul power, Lord Dong Yuan wouldn't be able to defeat Lord Zhaoling.
The current Lord Zhaoling was no longer the Lord Zhaoling of the past. Lord Zhaoling had learned the ways of evil. He wouldn't just cut Lord Dong Yuan's soul into pieces like before. He would eat Lord Dong Yuan up like a piece of meat.
