Chapter 2092 (Raw 2197): Xiao Chen Makes a Move

Inside the Filthy Blood Barrier, the expressions of Qin Zhuolin and Sang changed.

“Attack!”

The two exchanged looks and immediately decided to attack this scarlet-clad, middle-aged man together.

The scarlet-clad, middle-aged man smiled coldly and said, “No one is a match for me in my Filthy Blood Barrier. The two of you are seeking death!”

An intense battle quickly ensued within this Filthy Blood Barrier.

The scarlet-clad, middle-aged man was a Great Perfection Sovereign Personage in the first place; his cultivation was higher than Qin Zhuolin’s and Sang’s. When they were in the Filthy Blood Barrier, he held a great advantage.

However, Qin Zhuolin and Sang were not as simple as they appeared.

One was a mysterious and unfathomable Geomaster, and the other was a lifeform born of the Propping Mulberry Tree. When the two worked together, they were not disadvantaged.

This startled the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man. However, his expression did not change, remaining calm.

It would take much more effort for the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man to take down the two. However, he just had to follow the plan and delay them. After Elder Sun finished, the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man could leave.

There was no need for the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man to worry too much.

On the other side, Xiao Chen shadowed the black-clad old man, stealthily moving in Azure Mountain Town.

Azure Mountain Town was not large. Soon, the other party stopped before an abode.

“That is?”

Xiao Chen frowned slightly. He did not dare to use his Spiritual Sense rashly lest he alert the enemy.

However, he had a vague suspicion that these two were here for the Extreme Yin Body, Qing Chen.

Xiao Chen already knew four years ago that the Heavenly Slaughter Sect branches in the Desolate Sea worked for the Eighth Prince.

The young girls they captured were mostly for the Xuewu Dynasty.

“Bang!”

The black-clad old man roared expressionlessly and coldly as he suddenly attacked.

The house in front crumbled silently into dust. This horrified the young girl and the little boy living there.

In the four years Xiao Chen had not seen Qing Chen, she had grown a lot. The little boy should be her younger brother.

“Elder Sister!” the little boy cried out with some fear, hiding behind Qing Chen.

Qing Chen felt anxious, but she still shielded her little brother. She shouted, “Who are you? Quickly leave this place. Azure Mountain Town is under the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor’s protection.”

The black-clad old man smiled and retorted, “Of course, I know that the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor protects this rundown place. Otherwise, I would have taken you away three years ago.”

Qing Chen appeared very young and tender under the moonlight. A bright light flickered in her eyes.

Her soft and supple body gave off a cold and aloof air. Even though Qing Chen was an ordinary person, she still had an extraordinary aura.

“You truly live up to being an Extreme Yin Body. I pity you. Unfortunately, you caught the Eighth Prince’s interest. Come with me.”

Greed flashed in the black-clad old man’s eyes. He stepped forward, wanting to take Qing Chen away.

“Old Fogey Sun, take another step forward if you dare!”

Just at this moment, the black-clad old man suddenly heard a voice from behind that made him shudder.

A bone-chilling murderous intent instantly pierced deep into the black-clad old man’s body. He felt like he had plunged into an icy cave, chills streaking throughout his body.

The black-clad old man was frightened out of his wits. What person could appear silently behind him? To think that he did not notice at all!

“Might I ask who this is? I am an outer sect Elder of the Heavenly Slaughter Sect!”

At that crucial moment, the black-clad old man announced the Heavenly Slaughter Sect’s name, hoping it would protect him.

The Heavenly Slaughter Sect name still held some weight in the Desolate Sea.

Not just anyone dared to offend a Rank 7 Sect that was one of the six great Demonic Dao sects.

Unfortunately, the one that the black-clad old man ran into was Xiao Chen.

“Who am I? Just turn around, and you will see.”

The black-clad old man turned around nervously and looked up. He saw a white-clad youth with delicate facial features. Under the moonlight, this youth looked extraordinary, shimmering with moonlight. Even the black night could not cover his brilliance.

“Xiao Chen!”

The black-clad old man had fought with Xiao Chen before. Back then, Xiao Chen nearly died at his hands.

However, there had been no news of Xiao Chen in the past four years. According to rumors, either the Dragon God Crown Prince, Qin Ming, or the Hound Lion Empire’s crown prince, Xiahou Wu, had killed him.

When the black-clad old man suddenly saw someone he thought dead appear before him, he was alarmed.

Run!

The other party was only Small Perfection Sovereign Personage, comparable to the black-clad old man. However, the pressure from the other party felt almost asphyxiating.

The black-clad old man did not even have to think. His figure flashed, and he soared into the air, wanting to merge into the darkness, trying to take the opportunity to run.

“You think you can run?”

Xiao Chen laughed coldly. The image of a candle dragon appeared behind him. Candle flames lit up in its eyes.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Instantly, an icy flame burned the black-clad old man in the air, causing him to screech in pain.

That strange cold flame burned not just the black-clad old man’s physical body but also his soul.

The black-clad old man staggered and fell to the ground.

Before the black-clad old man could put out the flame, Xiao Chen extended his hand and executed Firmament’s Rage. He grabbed the old man’s neck just as the old man landed.

“Don’t kill me! Don’t kill me! I was just following orders. I am an outer sect Elder of the Heavenly Slaughter Sect. If you kill me, you will start a never-ending conflict with the Heavenly Slaughter Sect!”

The horrifying rage of a Great Desolate Eon Ancestor Dragon encased the black-clad old man as boundless saber Qi infiltrated his entire body.

As long as the black-clad old man dared to act rashly, Xiao Chen could eliminate him with just a thought.

Xiao Chen could now freely control Firmament’s Rage, wielding it as he pleased. He had reached the same level as the First Palace Master.

The boundless rage could shake the surroundings, stirring up the sky.

However, Xiao Chen appeared at ease as he executed Firmament’s Rage, easily and freely controlling it.

“It’s too late,” Xiao Chen shouted coldly. The moment this person entered Azure Mountain Town, Xiao Chen had sentenced him to death.

Xiao Chen advanced Firmament’s Rage to the next step, infusing the Five Element Divine Lightning into his palm. Then, a small world made up of lightning and saber Qi formed in his palm.

Xiao Chen instantly grasped the black-clad old man within his palm.

Then, he clenched his hand tight. When he opened his hand again, fresh blood, saber Qi, and lightning suddenly burst out.

The black-clad old man died without a corpse.

“Whoosh!”

Xiao Chen’s figure flashed, and he arrived beside Qing Chen and her little brother. Qing Chen’s eyes welled with tears as she asked with some disbelief, “Big Brother, is that you?”

Xiao Chen smiled faintly. Despite changing a lot—now a young lady—Qing Chen was still the same as back then, tearing up easily. However, she would always shield her little brother.

Xiao Chen nodded and replied, “It’s me. I have returned.”

Qing Chen smiled through her tears. “Big Brother, you finally returned. Many people said that you would not return. However, Little Qing Chen felt that you would definitely return. Just like four years ago, you eventually returned.”

Four years ago, Xiao Chen went to destroy the eighty-nine nearby Heavenly Slaughter Sect branch strongholds alone.

At that time, many people felt that Xiao Chen would not return. Only Qing Chen persisted in waiting for him.

“Stop crying. Bring your little brother to Grandpa Seven and seek shelter there. I still need to do something,” Xiao Chen softly consoled Qing Chen.

“Alright, Little Qing Chen will listen to Big Brother.”

Qing Chen quickly led her little brother over to Grandpa Seven’s house. She turned her head back to glance at Xiao Chen along the way.

Xiao Chen sighed softly. As someone who possessed an Extreme Yin Body, it was practically impossible for her to live an ordinary life.

Xiao Chen’s gaze swept around before fixing on the pavilion in the distance. Then, his eyes slowly turned cold.

At this moment, the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man was finding it increasingly easier to handle Sang and Qin Zhuolin.

The more time passed, the more the scarlet-clad man’s advantage became apparent in the Filthy Blood Barrier.

Qin Zhuolin and Sang tried to break the Filthy Blood Barrier several times but failed. Instead, they ended up giving the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man opportunities.

“Just give up. You have no chance of defeating me in the Filthy Blood Barrier. I have already shown a lot of restraint. If I want to, I can kill you two at any time.” The scarlet-clad, middle-aged man laughed coldly as he knocked Sang and Qin Zhuolin back again.

“Damn it. This Filthy Blood Barrier suppresses us too much. It completely isolates the Spiritual Energy of the world. On the other hand, he can gain endless energy within the Filthy Blood Barrier,” Sang said somewhat helplessly. Right now, his cultivation had already reached Small Perfection Sovereign Personage.

However, Sang was not much weaker than a regular Great Perfection Sovereign Personage.

Qin Zhuolin was even more impressive. Four years ago, he was already a Small Perfection Sovereign Personage and grasped many Secret Techniques.

When the two worked together, they did not fear any Great Perfection Sovereign Personage. However, this Filthy Blood Barrier made fighting the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man extremely difficult.

“Bang!”

The scarlet-clad, middle-aged man threw another palm strike. Immediately, an endless stream of energy surged over, lending it infinite strength, the might of this palm strike as vast as the sea.

Blood leaked out of the mouths of Qin Zhuolin and Sang after the palm strike sent them crashing into the barrier.

“I am unrivaled in the Filthy Blood Barrier!”

The scarlet-clad, middle-aged man showed a cocky expression as he guffawed. He continuously unleashed his Great Perfection Sovereign Personage aura, putting even more unbearable pressure on Sang and Qin Zhuolin.

“Is that so? Why do I not feel so?”

Just at this moment, an uninvited figure materialized within the Filthy Blood Barrier.

Xiao Chen’s figure suddenly appeared before the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man, greatly startling the other party.

“Who are you?! How did you get in?!”

“You don’t need to know that.”

Martial and Soul as One!

Xiao Chen’s will of soul merged with his Martial Dao. He showed a cold expression as he drew his saber.

The resplendent saber light immediately washed out this Filthy Blood Barrier’s dazzling scarlet brilliance, leaving a black-and-white world.

“Bang!” The Filthy Blood Barrier immediately shattered, and Xiao Chen’s saber stabbed into the other party’s chest.

The scarlet-clad, middle-aged man vomited a mouthful of blood as he did his best to resist, trying to prevent Xiao Chen’s saber from going any further.

“Blocked?”

Xiao Chen found this slightly strange. Despite being at such a close distance, the other party managed to block a saber strike from him while Xiao Chen was in the state of Martial and Soul as One.

However, this made sense, as well. After all, the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man was a Great Perfection Sovereign Personage. If he could not block a strike from Xiao Chen, he would be too useless.

“Blood Shadow Demonic Claw! Die!”

Feeling Xiao Chen’s attack pause for a moment, the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man flew into a rage and attacked. The might of a dynasty burst out, and his eyes turned scarlet. His pupils became like crescent moons—an extremely bizarre sight.

Then, the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man’s right hand instantly turned into a monstrous demonic claw. He burst out with a Demonic Might rivaling a Great Desolate Eon ferocious beast’s, looking like he wanted to tear Xiao Chen to shreds.

“You thought that was my peak strike? You thought wrong; I was just warming up.”

Flawless saber Dao, the heart as a saber!

The Tyrant Saber that was stabbed in the other party’s chest quickly came out. Then, Xiao Chen brought out his Saber Great Dao to its limits.

Saber light immediately covered Xiao Chen’s entire body, forming a saber blade.

The saber light was like the moon, and the saber images were like the wind. Just as the terrifying demonic claw was about to grab him, Xiao Chen pierced more than a hundred holes in the other party’s body.

“Pu ci!”

The scarlet-clad, middle-aged man vomited a mouthful of blood. The Blood Shadow Demonic Claw scattered, and the backlash inflicted further injuries.

“Martial and Soul as One!”

As the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man looked at Xiao Chen, a horrified expression flashed in his eyes.

To think that it was Martial and Soul as One. It was said that even Sovereign Emperors struggled to achieve Martial and Soul as One.

“Blood Shadow Demonic Evasion!” the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man shouted. Then, he suddenly exploded and turned into thousands of blood threads scattering in all directions.

This was a Secret Technique of the Xuewu Dynasty. As long as one blood thread managed to escape, one could survive.

However, once executed, the consequences were terrifying. Unless left without a choice, no one would execute it.

The scarlet-clad, middle-aged man thought he would only have to execute this if he ran into a Sovereign Emperor. Unexpectedly, a Small Perfection Sovereign Personage pushed him this far.

However, if the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man knew what Xiao Chen was thinking, he would go crazy.

Xiao Chen was debating whether to give chase or not.

That was right. Even though the scarlet-clad, middle-aged man executed the Blood Shadow Demonic Evasion, Xiao Chen still had the means to pursue.

It would just be somewhat troublesome.
