“Fuck, did I kick his demonic core? What kind of shitty rising star is this? How useless.” Ox-dragon Sacred Descendant cursed, thinking the guy was too weak and that he should have held back.
Although this caught him by surprise, he acted cool and aloof: “This is the result of opposing me, he deserved it. I already showed mercy and respect to the ancestors of the triumph-fish by not destroying his soul.”
“What a badass.” Zhongyuan Yidian remarked. The guy was worthy of being a saint’s grandchild.
The other demons on his side thought he was furious and shouted: “Ox-dragons are the strongest, we must kill them for their transgression!”
“Yes, just one Moonbreak is not enough to quell your anger, White Qilin, Prince Kun, commit suicide right now!”
“Those who trick us deserve death, commit suicide and you will have a chance to enter the reincarnation cycle. Otherwise, we’ll rend your soul too.”
Ox-dragon Sacred Descendant frowned upon hearing this. His fiery temper aside, he wasn’t entirely brainless and had no intention of killing everyone.
However, the ones screaming were his followers so he didn’t want to stop them. After all, he was indeed angry and the liars deserved a lesson. His status and position didn’t allow him to show weakness.
White Qilin and the others saw the situation differently. If the guy dared to kill Moonbreak, he might actually kill all of them.
He won’t let this go, if he can kill Moonbreak alone, we can’t beat him one-on-one. White Qilin communicated telepathically with his allies.
Seize the initiative then, we have fourteen rising stars, four pseudo-saints, deal as much damage as possible with the first move. Prince Kun answered.
He has a saint artifact, if he can summon it, it’s over. White Qilin responded.
The first move has to deal irrecoverable damage, take him down and the rest does not matter.
Yes, we have powerful backers as well so the ox-dragon saint won’t be able to pursue this matter. It is his grandson’s fault for pushing the matter, we aren’t to be blamed. White Qilin added.
With that, he smiled, cupped his fist, and lowered his head: “Your Highness, there’s a misunderstanding. We’ve been waiting outside the ruins for a long time but didn’t see you coming, that’s why we wanted to scout ahead for you.”
“Do you take me for a fool? We lost one rising star while chasing the humans while you broke your pact, leaving me to find fortunes in the ruins. Fuck, I never gave a damn about the humans and did not care for them reaching the immemorial level.” Ox-dragon sneered.
White Qilin was now within three steps of Ox-dragon and opened his mouth, shooting a delicate needle at Ox-dragon’s forehead.
The white needle contained lightning bolts and traveled like a shooting star.
At the same time, his hand turned into a qilin claw with sacred runes for a palm strike. Prince Kun and twelve rising stars attacked at the same time. Some used spirit treasures, others used their best techniques.
A lunar mark appeared on Ox-dragon’s forehead and repelled the needle.
“Soulrend Needle?! How dare you use this against me, I will cripple you!” He roared.
This was an evil weapon from the deathspirit demons, capable of devouring souls. Being struck meant certain death.
Ox-dragon spewed out his green fan and activated it. With just one swing, it repelled all the incoming attacks and blasted the rising stars away.
Nevertheless, he held back so they were only injured, not obliterated. Only four remained on the battlefield – White Qilin, Prince Kun, and two more pseudo-saint demons.
“Dark Monarch Blade.” Prince Kun took out an eighteenth-level sword with the death affinity.
“Qilin Saint Spine.” White Qilin took out a massive spine with a strand of saint intent left behind. He swung it and it made noises like a whip.
The other two also summoned powerful weapons and attacked at the same time.
The humans retreated several thousand miles away and observed the battle.
“Wow, what a fight. Is that another dead pseudo-saint?” Ximen Chuixiao said with a smile.
Firebird Saintess and Firebird Princess were speechless. These demons were too easily agitated, deciding to fight among themselves instead of dealing with the humans.
“Whoa, watch out Sacred Descendant, to your left, your left! Sigh, almost. White Qilin, defend your head! Fuck, are you blind, you’re pissing me off!” Zhongyuan Yidian was also clapping and enjoying himself.
Up in the clouds, two female phoenixes also observed the fight with their heavenly gaze.
“Big Sis, that devil is so evil, he’s gonna kill all the rising star demons.” The young phoenix’s round eyes rolled as she said.
Phoenix Goddess could see a figure darting across the battlefield with an invisible cloak. Whenever Ox-dragon knocked down someone, he would come to deliver the finishing blow.
The mysterious assailant was naturally Feng Feiyun who relied on his Death Tribulation to secretly kill them.
The phoenix gaze was potent enough to see his figure; others couldn’t do the same.
“Do not tell anyone this.” She told the younger phoenix.
“I won’t or the devil will beat me.” The younger phoenix stuck out her tongue.
The battle came to an end in just a short time.
White Qilin, Prince Kun, and the two pseudo demons lay on the ground, dead.
Feiyun finished his mission and flew away to take off his cloak before returning to the group.
Weaker cultivators in hiding observed the fight and talked among themselves.
“Ox-dragon Sacred Descendant is a monster, he killed all of them.”
“Five rising stars in one go, is he not afraid of being the main target? His clan must be something else.”
“I don’t think the thirteenth prince would have been so brutal.”
“He has the right to do what he wants since he has a saint for a grandfather.”
Ox-dragon gazed at the corpses on the battlefield. The blood of pseudo-saints seeped into the ground, causing blood flowers to rise and an evil presence to change the landscape.
Wh-what did I just do?
Killing five rising stars in public meant asking for trouble. Nevertheless, he had to uphold his image.
“Hmph, they deserved it. Now, shall we go to the ruins?” He said and flew across the bridge with his group.
He was distracted by what he had just done and forgot about the humans.
No one dared to loot the corpses for the powerful treasures. This was a serious issue and could cause a war among the powerful demon races.
Without the immemorial demons in the way, everyone started coming out and crossing the bridge.
The dao conference in the ruins didn’t matter as much as the hidden fortunes everywhere beyond.
Phoenix Goddess glanced at Feiyun once before crossing the bridge with the young phoenix.
