"So you figured it out, yet you still dared to co?"
"Heh. The two of you alone are hardly a threat to ."
"If you’re really not afraid, why sneak around and kidnap ? You have the guts to muddy the waters, but not to show your true face?" Her smile was laced with scorn.
Yu Cang’s expression turned sinister. "That mouth of yours is truly infuriating. But no matter, your body is exquisite... If I were to possess you, I could use your body to wrap those Beast Emperors around my little finger, toying with them as I please. The re thought is exhilarating."
A chill went down Sang Luo’s spine. "I thought you wanted to bear your children?"
"If you bear a child, I can spare your wretched little life for the ti being. I’ll kill you after you’ve given birth." Yu Cang’s expression shifted in a flash, a look of yearning now on his face. "That man... having an heir is truly enviable. I, too, want to experience what it’s like to have a female bear my child."
"You want to use soone else’s body to have a child with ?" Sang Luo gave him a critical once-over. "Or is it that your true form is too ugly for to see?"
"..."
As Sang Luo made small talk, the ropes behind her quietly loosened. Her spiritual power had already enveloped the entire tomb.
’This is a tomb with three subterranean levels. I’m on the first level below ground. Nearly a thousand Blood Demon Puppet Eggs are buried on the second level. The lowest level holds a Blood Pool, and soaking inside it is the Blood Demon Pestle. It really is hidden in his main lair!’
Suddenly, her gaze shifted, and her aura turned ice-cold!
Not far from the Blood Pool lay several female corpses, scattered about haphazardly. The bodies were completely naked, and the marks between their legs were too horrible to look at...
SWISH!
A dagger stabbed toward his heart.
Yu Cang hurriedly retreated, but two deep gashes were cut across his chest and jaw.
"Bitch!" Yu Cang roared, throwing a punch that whistled through the air. Sang Luo’s reactions were just as swift. She sidestepped, then launched a flying kick that connected squarely with his face, sending him tumbling several ters away.
Yu Cang was limited in this body, his power restricted. As he climbed up from the ground, a grotesque scene unfolded. A pair of pale, slender hands tore through the abdon from within. Then, Yu Ze’s entire torso was ripped open from the front as a tall, gaunt mber of the Demon Clan crawled out. His skin was deathly pale—this was Yu Cang’s true form.
Moving like a phantom, Yu Cang teleported behind Sang Luo, a blast of black Demonic Qi aid at her chest. Her folded fan transford into a broad blade and t the attack with a deafening CLANG, deflecting most of the force. Even so, Sang Luo was driven back more than ten ters, slamming into the stone wall hard enough to leave a human-shaped indentation.
"Courting death!"
Yu Cang pinned her with one hand, while his other hand transford into a pitch-black beastly claw and stabbed toward the center of her heart.
RUMBLE—
The ground suddenly rumbled violently. The stone walls shook intensely, and countless fragnts of rock rained down.
The tomb was collapsing!
Sang Luo abandoned the fight, delivering a vicious, dynasty-ending kick to Yu Cang’s groin. As his grip slackened, she launched herself upward.
Gritting his teeth, Yu Cang leaped after her, grabbed her calf, and viciously slamd her downward.
Si Ye shot out of the tomb like an arrow of fire, kicking Yu Cang down into the collapsing ruins below. He then caught Sang Luo and flew toward the surface.
The tomb collapsed completely, leaving a crater several ters deep in the ground.
While Sang Luo had been stalling Yu Cang, Si Ye had already infiltrated the tomb and incinerated all the Blood Demon Puppets.
Yu Cang flew back to the surface at the last mont before the tomb collapsed. Seeing the Vajra Pestle in Si Ye’s hand, his eyes nearly split with rage. ’He had been played by these two!’
"Give it back... or I’ll kill her!"
Yu Cang used the unconscious Hao Yue as a hostage.
"Kill her if you want," Si Ye sneered, crushing the Vajra Pestle.
Only then did Yu Cang realize sothing was terribly wrong. After he killed Hao Yue, her body dissolved into a pool of bloody water and vanished.
It was just a Clone!
Sang Luo said, "I can only hold him for half an hour, at most. Ah Ye, finish him off quickly, and leave no loose ends."
"Him? I won’t need half an hour. The ti it takes to burn an incense stick will be enough." Like an agile beast, Si Ye lunged forward, his Longsword singing as it left its sheath. No one could see how he moved, but Yu Cang’s arm was severed, splattering blood on the ground!
Yu Cang scrambled back in a panic as a new arm rapidly grew from the stump. A pitch-black Longsword appeared in his hand, and he was forced to et the attack.
A storm of power erupted as the two clashed.
Si Ye’s attacks were fast and ruthless, each one striking at a vital point. The chilling killing intent made Yu Cang tremble in fear.
Their Ranks were the sa—in fact, Yu Cang had even reached the Initial Emperor Rank first—but he was completely outmatched in terms of sheer presence!
Si Ye’s movents were so fluid and agile he was almost a blur. Yu Cang finally found an opening and thrust his sword through Si Ye’s shoulder, not realizing it was a feint. The instant Yu Cang closed the distance, Si Ye simultaneously ran him through the heart.
BOOM!
The force of the single sword strike slamd Yu Cang from a hundred ters in the air down to the ground, creating a deep crater.
Si Ye viciously drove his sword through Yu Cang’s heart, plunging three feet deep into the earth. It pinned him to the ground like a nail, leaving him powerless to escape.
’He was defeated!’
Si Ye stood up, pulled the sword from his left shoulder, and threw it to the ground, where it shattered in two. Blood stained most of his upper robes, but other than a slight pallor, his expression was unmoved.
Sang Luo ca forward and finished healing him. Then she picked up the broken sword from the ground and stabbed it into Yu Cang’s left eye.
He let out a bloodcurdling scream. "Bitch! I’ll tear you to pieces!"
"I’m afraid you won’t get the chance."
She then blinded his other eye.
’Rembering the scene in the tomb... even killing him with a thousand cuts wouldn’t be enough to quell the hatred in my heart!’
"Luoluo, you do it."
Another Longsword, this one carved with a phoenix pattern, appeared in Si Ye’s hand. He offered it to her.
Sang Luo took the Longsword and raised her hand.
Yu Cang laughed wildly. "So what if you kill ? The Gate is about to open, and no one will be able to stop what’s coming! You will all die without a grave..."
With one strike, Sang Luo cleaved him in two. His Demon Crystal shattered into dust.
The grating noise stopped abruptly.
’It’s finally over.’
The sword fell to the ground, and a dazzling golden light flew into her body.
Sang Luo felt a stir in her belly. ’This baby... it won’t develop no matter how many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures I feed it. Almost two months have passed, and my stomach is still flat. It seems it can only grow by absorbing this golden light of rit.’
Si Ye supported the sowhat weakened Sang Luo, carefully guarding her stomach. "That was too risky. I’ll never let you do sothing like that again."
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained. If I hadn’t done this, soone as cunning and suspicious as Yu Cang would never have brought to his lair. And if we didn’t finish him in one go, he would only be harder to kill in the future." Sang Luo looked at the wound on his shoulder. "Does it still hurt?"
"It’s just a small wound, nothing serious." Si Ye had been in many fights and was used to it. He shrugged and chuckled. "After you healed , it doesn’t hurt at all."
"Of all my Talent Abilities, I’m still most proficient with my own Healing Technique." Sang Luo’s expression turned sorrowful as she rembered sothing. She brought Hao Yue and Yu Ze out from her storage space.
Yu Ze had been disemboweled, a truly cruel and horrifying sight.
Hao Yue stared at his corpse, a dazed look on her face. "Yu Ze... He... he’s really dead. I must be dreaming. How is this possible..."
Si Ye was silent for a mont, then lifted Yu Ze’s body into his arms. "I’ll take him back to the White Tiger Clan for burial."
"Wait. Let look at him again."
Si Ye was still hesitating, wondering if he should let a female see such a gory sight, but Sang Luo had already walked over to examine Yu Ze’s corpse.
