Chapter 123: Let Me Handle This, You Won't Kill Them Like This
Chapter 123: Let Me Handle This, You Won't Kill Them Like This
White Emperor Palace.
A man dressed in a white crane robe held a white chess piece, placing it on the chessboard.
He murmured with a smirk, "Natural Sacred... Blood Lord... Preaching Dao... Supreme..."
A young woman with a baby face, the second disciple of the White Emperor Palace, spoke up, "Senior Brother, this matter is of utmost importance. Should we report it to the Master?"
Yun He shook his head, "Some time ago, the Master had a battle with the Supreme Being and suffered severe injuries. He is currently recuperating and will likely not meet anyone for a while."
Hearing this, worry clouded the baby-faced woman's eyes. "Is the Master injured?"
Yun He sighed, his eyes also carrying a hint of gloom, "With the Supreme Being's relentless pursuit, the North-South Battle... it's truly difficult!"
Once the North-South Battle concludes, the South will face defeat.
It's hard to imagine what the Windflow Realm will become.
Demonic beasts run rampant, leaving no room for ordinary people.
"If it weren't for the Supreme Being's Destiny Slate, the Master wouldn't fear her!" The baby-faced woman felt indignant.
The White Emperor and the Supreme Being had always been evenly matched.
However, the shift in the balance began with the Destiny Slate.
The baby-faced woman remembered that after the Supreme Being acquired the Destiny Slate, the North began to thoroughly dominate the South.
Although the South was at a disadvantage before, it wasn't as apparent.
"The Destiny Slate..." Yun He was startled upon hearing this, "You mean the Blood Lord... also has a Destiny Slate?"
The Destiny Slate wasn't the only one in existence.
The baby-faced woman also realized, "If it's the Destiny Slate, then it's truly possible... but, but..."
She had already placed the owner of the Destiny Slate in opposition.
While the Destiny Slate couldn't mass-produce Supreme Beings.
But creating a few dozen, or even a hundred, was still very possible.
With the South already at a disadvantage, if the North gained an additional hundred Supreme Beings, their odds of winning the North-South Battle would greatly increase.
The battle's timeline would also be pushed forward.
The Master's preparations were insufficient.
"No, I must go to No Return City immediately and meet this Blood Lord," Yun He's eyes flashed with complex emotions, and he finally spoke. "If the Master emerges from seclusion, immediately inform him about the Blood Lord and the Destiny Slate."
"Alright." The baby-faced woman looked at Yun He, "Senior Brother, be careful. If there's danger, return to the White Emperor Palace."
She was a bit worried; this was a scheme, a plot designed for the senior brother.
"I understand." Yun He smiled calmly.
Sharing the White Emperor's concern for the world, what was there to fear in death?
...
No Return City.
Yuan Qi had grown old, and when he arrived at No Return City, he was a spirited young man. Now, he had entered his twilight years.
Over the years, his cultivation had strengthened, but he couldn't stop the passage of time.
In the bustling No Return City, he had become a gatekeeper.
Watching the bustling city, a smile appeared in Yuan Qi's eyes, "Governor... I no longer have to guard this city alone."
As he spoke, he coughed.
Over the past six years, No Return City had undergone many changes.
The most significant change was the increase in population.
Currently, No Return City had a population of two hundred thousand, with a terrifying three hundred Supreme Beings among them.
If this number were to be revealed, it would undoubtedly shock the world.
In just five years, the Blood Palace's growth rate was astonishing.
The North-South Battle had left Ten Thousand Eight Thousand Cities isolated, and many were unaware of this.
Some who knew about it dismissed it with contempt.
Of course, many Land Mythical beings also traveled thousands of miles to reach No Return City.
Unfortunately, many also perished on the journey.
At this time, numerous Land Mythical beings had arrived in No Return City.
In half a month, the legendary Preaching Assembly.
This Preaching Assembly had gathered a thousand Land Mythical beings at their peak.
Of course, many Land Mythical beings who were not quite at their peak also came to listen to the Dao and enhance their strength.
At that time, the Blood Lord would appear and preach to all the Land Mythical beings.
"It's getting dark; I need to close the city gates." Yuan Qi had grown old, and he didn't know if he would live to see the end of the North-South Battle.
But he believed that as long as the Blood Lord existed, one day, the North-South Battle would come to an end.
And the victor... would be the Blood Lord.
At that moment, outside No Return City.
A newly constructed underground palace.
Qi Yuan's lips curled into a smile, "Having many subordinates feels great."
At that moment, he sat on the grandmaster's chair, extending his broken sword.
One by one, the demonic beasts were like products on a conveyor belt, being sliced by Qi Yuan, the machine.
He didn't even need to move; every day, countless demonic beasts were captured by his subordinates and brought to him for slaughter.
After all, for every hundred Land Mythical-level demonic beasts captured, they would earn a new chance to listen to the Dao.
How could his subordinates not be motivated? They spent every day and night capturing and killing demonic beasts, bringing them to Qi Yuan.
The reason for doing this outside No Return City was that if demonic beasts entered the city, Qi Yuan's defense would fail.
So, he had no choice but to build a demonic beast factory outside the city.
Slaughtering demonic beasts daily.
Suddenly, Qi Yuan was taken aback. "Do I look like I'm tightening screws in a factory right now?"
An endless stream of experiences poured in, and Qi Yuan felt like he was indeed tightening screws in a factory.
These demonic beasts were like products on an assembly line.
The only difference was that while others might be standing or sitting on stools, he was in a grandmaster's chair.
"So, am I working for... the Windflow Realm?" Qi Yuan's anger grew as he looked up at the vast sky.
"You little rascal, if you don't give me some small benefits, I'll definitely refine you into a Golden Core." Qi Yuan said, crossing his legs casually and extending his sword straight ahead, allowing the demonic beasts to pass through one by one, each turning into fragments.
The Sin Origin was also growing crazily.
The Primordial Divine Art of the Overlord Heart Demon's Primordial Energy was stored and rapidly increasing.
Qi Yuan felt that this Primordial Energy was inexhaustible.
As for the Great Forget Dharma, it was another extreme.
When dealing with opponents of the same level, Qi Yuan was reluctant to use it.
Just then, the sound of a copper bell rang from outside the door.
"Come in," Qi Yuan said lazily.
The door opened, and Chen Huan, dressed in a red robe, walked in.
Compared to five years ago, the aura around him was even more terrifying.
"Big Brother, a new batch of Supremes has arrived in Bloodfall Thousand Cities, and there are quite a few of them. It seems they are planning something big," Chen Huan reported.
Nowadays, Chen Huan had become the grand manager of the Blood Palace, overseeing various matters.
"How many?" Qi Yuan asked casually.
"More than twenty, including a few Mid-Stage Supremes," Chen Huan replied.
Due to the presence of Mid-Stage Supremes, they couldn't afford to investigate too deeply.
To avoid being discovered.
Qi Yuan's eyes lit up. "No Great Supremes?"
Mid-Stage Supremes were dangerous to others, but to Qi Yuan, they were nothing to worry about.
As long as they weren't Leaking-Free Heaven Born with Primordial Energy protecting their bodies, who could stand against Qi Yuan's Primordial Divine Art of the Overlord Heart Demon?
Of course, in reality, with so many Supremes, including Mid-Stage Supremes, it was enough to surround and kill a Great Supreme.
Great Supremes were powerful in one-on-one battles.
But it would be difficult to withstand attacks from dozens of Primordial Energies at the same time.
However, for Qi Yuan, it wasn't a problem.
What he feared was a Great Supreme.
Dealing with one was troublesome, and he would need to engage in verbal battles.
Moreover, even those might not be effective.
"No, Great Supremes are rare. Even a Great Supreme like Zi Daoist wouldn't casually come to Bloodfall Thousand Cities. Should I lead a hundred Supremes to surround them?" Chen Huan suggested eagerly.
Nowadays, Supremes seemed as cheap as carrots to Chen Huan.
Chen Huan added, "Sheep Mix Supreme said that they seem to be planning to complete a major task and then come to destroy No Return City."
Sheep Mix Supreme was a Supreme sent to Bloodfall Thousand Cities.
This Supreme was quite amusing. When he arrived, Chen Huan and the others didn't even know, and he directly came to No Return City to surrender.
Now, he had become a pawn of the Blood Palace in the northern region.
Many demon caverns were captured by the Blood Palace due to the information he provided.
"No Return City has always been law-abiding, and they dare to destroy us? They're asking for death!" Qi Yuan's eyes flashed with determination. "I don't need you to lead the team; I'll personally take a hundred Supremes who are worth cultivating and go there myself."
Qi Yuan didn't care about Supreme betrayals.
However, he also needed Supremes who could truly work for him.
With these hundred Supremes, Qi Yuan would demonstrate his strength, increasing their loyalty.
Human nature couldn't be tested, and most people feared power.
Qi Yuan also needed to showcase his strength.
"Okay," Chen Huan nodded eagerly.
...
Bloodfall Thousand Cities.
Twenty Supremes gathered in the grand hall.
Sheep Mix Supreme, the host, stood in a corner, unnoticed.
The leader, Blue Charm Supreme, wore a solemn expression. "In three days, a Great Supreme will pass by this place.
You don't need to know her identity.
We've gathered here to capture her."
"A Great Supreme? That's a challenge!" one Supreme exclaimed.
With so many Supremes working together, they could capture a Great Supreme.
But killing one was difficult.
Moreover, a Great Supreme could easily kill several Supremes with a fierce attack.
"There's no need to worry. That Great Supreme is already severely injured, and with the treasure refined by two Great Supremes, we can become one and defend together," Blue Charm Supreme explained.
More than twenty array flags descended into the hands of the Supremes.
The Supremes caught them, all showing surprise.
This array was even stronger than they had imagined.
"With this treasure, we can rest assured," one Supreme laughed.
Although Great Supremes were powerful, the treasure refined by two Great Supremes was enough for twenty Supremes to integrate offense and defense against a Great Supreme.
Not to mention, it was a severely injured Great Supreme.
"During this time, we'll refine these array flags here and won't go out," Blue Charm Supreme's face turned somber. "To prevent any information leaks."
One Supreme laughed, "So what if the information leaks? Who can save her anyway?"
"That's not certain. Three years ago, I heard that No Return City had a Blood Palace, and the so-called Blood Lord could help people break through to the Supreme level. It seems there are already several Supremes in the Blood Palace."
"A Supreme Being spoke."
The Windflow Realm was vast, and news often became distorted and delayed during transmission.
The information he had received was from several years ago.
"Is it truly laughable that someone can help others attain the Supreme Realm?"
"We've squandered our years, barely managing to enter the Supreme Realm ourselves."
"If someone can reach the Supreme Realm with the help of others, then it's too easy to attain such a realm," another Supreme Being chuckled.
"All those who have attained the Supreme Realm are truly the pride of the heavens."
"They've endured countless hardships and trials to reach this realm."
They naturally didn't believe that attaining the Supreme Realm could be so simple.
"Sheep Mix Supreme has been guarding this place for a long time. He's most familiar with the matters here. Could No Return City really be as mysterious as they say?" Blue Charm Supreme turned to Sheep Mix Supreme, who was in the corner.
Sheep Mix Supreme's face carried a disdainful expression as he spoke, "It's all just rumors. Nonsense about helping others enter the Supreme Realm.
No Return City only has six Supreme Beings stationed there, and they're all in the Early Stage. Nothing to worry about.
The leader is a disciple of the White Emperor, which is why so many Supreme Beings have gathered."
Sheep Mix Supreme's words gained acknowledgment from all the Supreme Beings present.
"After we kill that Great Supreme Being, we'll take the opportunity to strike and wipe out No Return City, earning some battle merits," Blue Charm Supreme said indifferently.
He had said these words before.
Since they were here, it was a chance to earn some battle merits.
"Thank you, Blue Charm Supreme," Sheep Mix Supreme said, his face filled with delight.
At this moment, another Supreme Being asked, "If I remember correctly, there used to be several Supreme Beings stationed here, including a Great Supreme Being named Zi Daoren. Where are they now?"
Sheep Mix Supreme's expression remained unchanged. "Zi Daoren came here for an important matter. After his arrival, he led the other Supreme Beings away to handle that matter.
As for the details, I'm not sure."
He spoke nonsense without changing his expression.
The others didn't ask further questions.
They had been transferred here from other regions and weren't very familiar with this place.
"Hurry and refine it! Kill the Great Supreme Being, and then destroy No Return City!" Blue Charm Supreme said coldly.
This task carried a certain risk, but the rewards were well worth it.
It was worth doing.
Nine days passed in the blink of an eye.
In a fractured valley, Ning Tou stood in a black outfit, her skin as fair as a pear blossom after the rain, almost unnaturally pale.
She had always been pale, as if she had never been touched by sunlight, and indeed, this realm had no sun.
At this moment, her face carried a hint of gloom, "You lingering spirits, I see you won't disperse!"
Behind her, five Mid Stage Supreme Beings were in pursuit.
By now, she had already suffered severe injuries, and she preferred not to fight if she could avoid it.
"Blood Demon, I'll let you go if you release him," one of the Mid Stage Supreme Beings behind her said arrogantly.
After all, chasing a Great Supreme Being felt exhilarating.
Usually, when they encountered a Great Supreme Being, they wouldn't dare to even breathe heavily.
"Hmph!" Ning Tou didn't bother to respond.
It was impossible for her to release that mass of flesh.
If she could, she would have done it already.
It was the medium her husband had used to find her.
But at this moment, her eyes were filled with worry.
From a young age, she had endured nearly a thousand years of relentless pursuit.
The current scene reminded her of her past experiences.
The five Supreme Beings behind her were driving her toward a certain location.
And that place was where she had intended to go.
She had tried to change her route several times, but they had blocked her every attempt, forcing her to follow this path.
She understood that she might soon face a desperate situation.
Unfortunately, she had no other options.
Even if her husband came to her aid, there was little he could do.
Her current situation was indeed worrisome.
As expected, half an hour later, Ning Tou, transformed into radiance, stopped in her tracks.
She stood in a place, her face devoid of sadness or joy, "What a grand scheme!"
The five Mid Stage Supreme Beings behind her smiled, "Demoness, you've finally run out of places to escape to."
At this moment, twenty-three new figures appeared around Ning Tou from all directions.
Each of them was a Supreme Being, including five Mid Stage Supreme Beings.
Ten Mid Stage Supreme Beings, over ten Early Stage Supreme Beings, and an array treasure artifact refined by a Great Supreme Being surrounded the heavily injured Ning Tou, more than enough to deal with her.
Blue Charm Supreme looked at Ning Tou, his eyes filled with disgust, then glanced at the mass of flesh behind her, his expression complex, "Demoness, this is where you'll meet your end!"
The other Supreme Beings also looked at Ning Tou, their eyes filled with the same disgust.
After all, demonesses were universally loathed, and even they couldn't help but feel annoyed by Ning Tou.
Ning Tou smiled gently and glanced at the blood sphere behind her, her eyes softening, "My husband is not a Blood Demon, and I... am not a demoness.
But none of that matters now."
She stared at the blood sphere, her grip tightening on the chains as if reluctant to part with them.
At this point, Ning Tou had already accepted her fate.
Throughout her journey, she had faced endless pursuit.
When she set out for the ends of the earth, she had a premonition that she wouldn't make it.
Human effort has its limits, and she wasn't the chosen one; more accurately, she was the opposite.
"Enough talk, kill her!" Lan Mei Supreme spoke, and the twenty-odd Supremes launched their attacks simultaneously.
The five Supremes behind her also joined the fray.
The powerful Primordial Divine Abilities swept through, causing Ning Tou's face to turn pale, yet she showed no fear.
She was like a black butterfly dancing in the heavy rain, dodging all the Primordial Divine Abilities.
These powerful abilities were evaded one by one by her.
"No wonder she's the Great Supreme, even injured, she's still so formidable!" Lan Mei Supreme realized. "Let's all join forces and wear her down!"
Lan Mei Supreme understood that the Great Supreme wasn't an easy target.
Facing the heavily injured Great Supreme, they needed to slowly deplete her Primordial Energy.
Once the Great Supreme's Primordial Energy was completely exhausted, the Leaking-Free Heaven's Primordial Divine Ability would reveal its weaknesses.
At that moment, the Great Supreme would be no different from a powerful Supreme Mid-Stage cultivator, and she could be swiftly defeated.
Sheep Mix Supreme, standing among the crowd, kept making ripples in the water, only going through the motions without putting in any effort.
Ning Tou, surrounded by the attacking Supremes, continued to dodge their Primordial Divine Abilities.
She tightly clenched the chains, and even as wounds appeared on her body, she refused to let that piece of flesh be harmed in the slightest.
"Don't hold back, or else the night will be long!" Lan Mei Supreme shouted.
The Supremes in the field unleashed their attacks once more.
Unfortunately, their attacks were still perfectly evaded by Ning Tou.
However, these Supremes remained calm, and Ning Tou was merely a trapped beast fighting desperately.
Just then, a disdainful voice rang out: "You won't kill her by fighting like this. Let me handle it!"
A man in a crimson robe appeared, his face seemingly covered by a mask, making it hard to discern his features.
An extremely mysterious and fearsome aura emanated from his body.
Lan Mei Supreme's expression changed slightly: "The Blood Lord?"
He was merely a little surprised.
"The Blood Lord of No Return City? We haven't even caused you trouble, yet you dare to interfere in our affairs.
It seems your life isn't long enough!" Lan Mei Supreme exclaimed.
"You must not have come alone. Where are the Supremes behind you? Bring them out, and today, we'll kill the Great Supreme and take No Return City as well!" Lan Mei Supreme said confidently.
Lan Mei Supreme had his own assurance.
At that moment, Ning Tou, standing in the center of the battlefield, glanced at the Blood Lord in the blood-red robe. Her left eye, hidden behind the robe, twitched slightly, while her right eye remained calm.
The other Supremes in the field looked at the Blood Lord's figure, their expressions filled with apprehension, but more so with relaxation.
Sheep Mix Supreme had mentioned that No Return City only had a few Supremes, and they were merely at the Supreme Early Stage, nothing to be feared.
"Should I really call them out? I'm afraid that if I do, it might startle you." Qi Yuan spoke softly, observing the battle ahead and the Primordial Divine Abilities of everyone.
With this, his Primordial Divine Art of the Overlord Heart Demon would be even more effective.
After all, ten Supreme Mid-Stage cultivators still had some strength.
"Hmph, Blood Lord!" Lan Mei Supreme coldly harrumphed, not willing to pay any attention to this jumping clown of a Blood Lord, but remaining cautious.
The other Supremes were the same.
A few Supremes couldn't change the outcome.
Qi Yuan smiled faintly: "Since you want to see, then I'll let you see.
Come out... my henchmen!"
As Qi Yuan spoke, the void trembled.
In the sky above, a hundred figures in blood-red robes appeared, densely packed.
These blood-red robes exuded a cold gaze, staring at the crowd, and the auras they emitted were all that of Supremes.
The appearance of so many Supremes shocked the field.
"All Supremes?"
"So many?"
The surrounding Supremes, who had been attacking Ning Tou, had their faces turn pale.
Some even gasped in surprise.
To be honest, the gathering of over twenty Supremes was already a significant number.
But now, a hundred Supremes appeared, all in uniform blood-red robes, like pawns.
This visual impact was even more staggering.
Several Supremes couldn't help but hiss in surprise.
Didn't Sheep Mix Supreme say there were only a few Supremes?
How did a hundred Supremes appear?
This news was too outrageous!
Qi Yuan stood before the crowd, not using these Supremes to shield himself. He said calmly: "I knew it, they shouldn't have come out. As soon as they appeared, you were all shocked, gasping in surprise. Global warming is all your fault."
Qi Yuan continued, moving forward.
He ignored the shock of the others and repeated his previous words to those behind him: "They can't kill her by fighting like this. Watch me."
The Supremes behind him, including Wang Gai, revealed astonished expressions.
The Blood Lord... fighting against nearly thirty Supremes alone? How dare he!
That Great Supreme was being besieged by these Supremes.
But the orders they received were to stand and watch.
They didn't dare to move, as it would go against the Blood Lord's instructions.
Qi Yuan moved forward, and the blood-red robe became increasingly fiendish.
With robes shared with his son, he instantly transformed into a hundred-zhang-tall blood-red armored giant, holding a blood-red broken sword in his hand.
"People... should be killed like this!"
