Lu Chen's words had just ended when Xiao Chenghua imdiately checked the Flag of Ten Thousand Souls in his hand. To his shock, the inspection revealed that the souls eliminated by Lu Chen had not regenerated but had died completely, causing fewer and fewer souls to erge from his flag.
Xiao Chenghua could hardly believe it. Could Lu Chen's spiritual power actually purify souls and grant them liberation?
This man must die today!
A sharp light flashed in Xiao Chenghua's eyes. He then unleashed the Heavenly Demon Power, which, along with the souls, transford into skeletons and charged directly at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen didn't plan to waste any more ti either. He threw the Black Gold Sword in his hand, letting it hover in front of him, then he gathered the spiritual power within his body.
Ice-Eight Level Sword!!!
The previous two tis had been minor skirmishes that did not fully unleash the power of the Heaven Rank Swordsmanship, but this ti was different. When Lu Chen released the Sword Qi, the entire sky seed to freeze in an instant.
The cold air instantly enveloped all the souls, as well as Xiao Chenghua, and when the cold Sword Qi released by Lu Chen touched Xiao Chenghua's body, his body froze at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xiao Chenghua couldn't believe that the cold air could freeze him. He hurriedly unleashed all the Heavenly Demon Power in his body, but as soon as it erged, it seed to encounter a natural enemy and imdiately fled in other directions.
However, Lu Chen didn't give the Heavenly Demon Power a chance. He continued to drive the Sword Qi, and in an instant, the Heavenly Demon Power was also frozen by the cold Sword Qi.
Xiao Chenghua roared, "No... impossible!!!"
As Xiao Chenghua's words fell, his entire body was completely frozen, followed by eight streaks of Sword Qi piercing through his body, turning him into several large chunks.
Seeing this scene, Bai Wenbin's face turned pale without a trace of color, his body trembling nonstop.
That was a Myriad Laws Realm!!!
A Myriad Laws Realm Demon Cultivator, who possessed the Heavenly Demon Power, had been instantaneously killed by a Yin-Yang Realm Cultivator???
How... how is that possible!!!
Not only Bai Wenbin, but everyone present was stunned.
A Yin-Yang Realm Cultivator had easily killed a Myriad Law Realm Demon Envoy? Those present began to doubt if they were dreaming.
Especially so Black Moon City Soldiers who had once looked down on Lu Chen, they were now thoroughly convinced.
After who knows how long, Bai Wenbin suddenly ca to his senses, without any hesitation, he turned around and fled.
Though he could feel that Lu Chen had very little spiritual power left in his body, having witnessed Lu Chen's power, he had completely lost the desire to fight him.
With the strength of the Yin-Yang Realm easily slaying a Myriad Laws Realm Demon Cultivator, such a person was simply not soone he could deal with.
Even though Bai Wenbin had co to realize the extent of Lu Chen's strength, it was already too late to escape. Before Lu Chen could make a move, a massive blood hand appeared instantaneously above Bai Wenbin's head. Before he could react, it crushed him into a mist of blood.
Lu Chen glanced over the mist that had once been Bai Wenbin, then his gaze fell upon Nangong Qingya.
Seeing Lu Chen staring intently at herself, Nangong Qingya's delicate body couldn't help but tremble slightly. After witnessing Lu Chen's combat strength just now, she had developed a sense of fear towards him.
Moreover, she could distinctly feel the power within Lu Chen's body suppressing her vital essence, aning that Lu Chen could not only easily kill a Demon Cultivator of a higher rank but he might also be able to kill her, a Demonic Cultivator.
At that mont, Nangong Qingya felt extrely tense.
After a short while, Ji Qiuyu flew in front of Lu Chen. He observed Ji Qiuyu's body and then used the Evergreen Longevity Technique to help her recover.
Feeling a warm current flowing through her body, Ji Qiuyu imdiately thanked Lu Chen, saying, "Thank you."
As her words fell, Ji Qiuyu eyed the Lu Chen in front of her, curious whether this Lu Chen was a puppet or his real body.
Having the strength of the Yin-Yang Realm, he surely couldn't be a puppet, right?
At that thought, Ji Qiuyu's heart pounded uncontrollably. If it was indeed Lu Chen's real body, did that an she was soon to beco Lu Chen's true woman?
At that mont, Lu Chen, smiling, spoke to Nangong Qingya, "Thank you, Nangong Sect Master, for supporting Black Moon City. If it weren't for you holding off those Demon Cultivators, the demonic creatures in the Sealed Demon Land might have escaped."
Hearing Lu Chen's voice, Nangong Qingya finally snapped out of her daze, "No... no need to be polite. Even without the true master here, with Deputy City Lord Lu's strength, you would... you would have easily dealt with today's events."
Nangong Qingya appeared noticeably nervous, and though her facial expression was sowhat cold, she was even stuttering when speaking.
Lu Chen's last move had truly shocked her.
This encounter made Nangong Qingya even more curious about Lu Chen's identity—who was this man, where did he co from, why could he not only survive a self-destruction but also rapidly enhance his power to the Yin-Yang Realm, and even kill a Myriad Laws Realm Demon Envoy with the strength of the First Layer of the Yin-Yang Realm?
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have never believed such exaggerated feat of overcoming realms could exist.
This realization made Nangong Qingya acknowledge that Lu Chen's identity was no ordinary one. She couldn't afford to treat him like last ti; she didn't want to end up killed by the sa move that Lu Chen used on Xiao Chenghua.
After healing the injuries on Ji Qiuyu, Lu Chen's gaze shifted towards the distant Sealed Demon Land, where the Demonic Qi still lingered in the air, indicating that the demons were still gathering.
In an instant, Lu Chen's body vanished from the spot and next appeared on the city battlents. Following this, he released the Spiritual Power within him, and waves of Spiritual Power radiated out from him.
In a matter of monts, the Demonic Qi above the Sealed Demon Land grew increasingly faint, and as the Demon Qi dissipated, Black Moon City regained its brightness—the red evening sky hung in the heavens, and the remaining sunlight cast a warm glow on everyone, creating a sense of imnse warmth.
Lu Chen had consecutively used the Ice-Eight Level Sword just now, lowering the entire Black Moon City's temperature so much that the soldiers were shivering. Now, with the sudden appearance of the sunset, everyone naturally felt much warr.
Nangong Qingya quietly watched Lu Chen, who stood on the city battlents, lost in thought.
Then, without saying any parting words to Lu Chen, she directly left Black Moon City, leaving behind the dangerous entity known as Lu Chen.
After everything was settled, Lu Chen and Ji Qiuyu returned to the City Lord's Mansion. Lu Chen was just about to have the puppet return to the room so his real body could indulge, but as soon as he stepped into the room, Ji Qiuyu followed and embraced the puppet Lu Chen from behind.
Lu Chen was slightly startled, initially thinking Ji Qiuyu was worried about him. Then he reassured her, "Haven't I said it before? That was a puppet. Even if it self-destructed, I wouldn't be hard. You don't have to worry about ."
Ji Qiuyu imdiately said, "It's not because of that…"
Her voice was very low, her cheeks were flushed, and her heart was incredibly flustered.
