Chapter 1530 Why Not Kill All the Way?

An inconspicuous, thumb-sized Black-Striped Demon Wasp resting on the upper branch of a tree happened to see Lin Xun and the others appear.

In particular, when he saw a group of Blood Demon Ancient Domain experts drop dead without a sound, he almost screamed out loud.

“The little bastard from the Ancient Wasteland Domain is still alive. Does this mean that the mournful cries that sounded just now were triggered by the death of Lord Le Xuexiu and the others?

“No, I must tell everyone!”

The Black-Striped Demon Wasp immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.

However, when he just spread his wings and was about to take off, a handsome little man of only three inches tall appeared out of nowhere and blocked his path.

“Your clan is just as disgusting as those bastards from the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.”

Clang!

Little Silver drew his sword with a slash, and with a flash of sword light, the Black-Striped Demon Wasp was sliced apart on the spot.

“This Spirit Refinement Forest is so bizarre. At the start, five Saints, including Le Mujin and She Feng, died one after another very quickly after they arrived.”

“Now, the cry of Saint’s death has sounded once again. Could it be that Lord Le Xuexiu and the others...also followed their tracks?”

“It is indeed bizarre. So many deaths have resulted from trying to capture and kill a two-legged sheep from the Ancient Wasteland Domain. This is too abnormal.”

A group of Blood Demon Ancient Domain experts were discussing things in whispers. Everyone looked bewildered by the situation.

They had always felt an eerie and strange aura permeating the depths of the dark forest that made them shudder again and again.

“Why don’t...we leave this area first?” someone suggested, which immediately was met by a chorus of agreement.

But when they were about to take action, their eyes were suddenly drawn to a butterfly that was around the size of a palm. Its wings glistened like polished black gemstones, and its body maneuvered gracefully.

“That’s—?”

“What a beautiful butterfly.”

They were stunned for a moment.

But the next second, their expressions dramatically changed.

The Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly lightly beat its wings, and razor-sharp spatial cracks appeared all around the area, closing in on them.

Pu! Pu! Pu!

The next moment, scarlet blood rained down like exploding firecrackers.

Poignant and bloody.

When the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly disappeared, only a heap of broken limbs were left at the scene. A horrifying sight.

......

“Lord, something big must have happened in the Spirit Refinement Forest!”

A group of cultivators gathered around a Saint, all looking troubled.

This Saint was dressed in a dark robe adorned with a wide belt and tall hat. With a calm expression, he stared into the depths of the forest.

Only after a while did he say aloud, “No matter what happens, Lord Le Xuexiu and the other supreme Saints will be able to take care of it. Why are you all panicking?”

“But, just now, seven sets of mournful cries of Saint’s death resounded in the sky...” Someone gulped.

The man in a dark robe frowned. “It’s just a coincidence. Do you think supreme Saints would fall so easily? Idiot!”

Everyone glanced at each other, keeping quiet out of fear.

A clear and pleasant voice sounded, “Is it a coincidence? Then tell me, if I kill you, will it also be considered a coincidence?”

“Who?” The man in a dark robe shouted, narrowing his eyes at the distance.

He saw a graceful figure bathed in blazing flames coming their way from the depths of the dark forest. She was dressed in red and had silky black hair flowing down like a waterfall. Her breathtakingly beautiful face had a sacred glow.

The dark-robed man turned ashen-faced. It was the woman who was being hunted down by the seven supreme Saints!

Why...why would she show up here?

“Does it feel like a coincidence? Unfortunately, sometimes coincidence means death,” Ruowu said indifferently.

Before her voice faded, the area was already drowned by raging flames.

In the blink of an eye, the land within thousands of feet was incinerated into nothing!

As for the dark-robed Saint and all the cultivators around him, they were all turned into ashes and disappeared from the world.

......

Similar scenes happened across the Spirit Refinement Forest at a terrifying speed.

Whether it was Little Silver, the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly or Ruowu, they all had much pent-up anger and hatred.

Now, they were all retaliating!

As time passed, tragic cries, shrill screams, panicked gasps, sputtering blood and fleeing figures...happened endlessly across the Spirit Refinement Forest.

Carnage slowly unfolded.

Most of the people distributed in the Spirit Refinement Forest were Longevity Stage cultivators who had yet to ascend to the Saint Stage. Although a few were Saints, they were all only ordinary True Saints.

They posed no threat to Lin Xun and the others. They could be described as clay chickens.

“No—!”

“How could this be?”

“Run!”

“Quick, quickly call for reinforcement!”

Panicked yells like that rang repeatedly before it ceased abruptly and faded.

The vast Spirit Refinement Forest seemed to have turned into a slaughterhouse.

It was just that Lin Xun and the others, who were regarded as two-legged sheep by the Blood Demon Ancient Domain experts, turned into ruthless executioners.

Kill!

Kill!

Kill!

They showed no mercy, no pity, nor a hint of hesitation.

Have you not seen that the tiger gains a reputation by hunting prey, but who would pity the poor deer?

Have you not seen the number of Ancient Wasteland Domain experts that were brutally killed in various areas of the Blood Demon Territory?

An unyielding and proud Saint was chained and dragged like a dead dog.

An extraordinarily beautiful and talented girl was humiliated, raped, and trampled. She suffered a fate worse than death while the enemies continued to laugh triumphantly.

Who could turn a blind eye to those crimes, sufferings, and tears of blood?

Kill!

Even Lin Xun turned merciless no matter how weak or incapable an opponent was.

An unknown number of Ancient Wasteland Domain cultivators had been killed and tossed into the abyss over the past months!

Lin Xun had come to avenge them!

......

After the time to burn an incense stick, in the periphery of the Spirit Refinement Forest.

Little Silver was gasping for breath, but his expression remained exhilarated. “So satisfying! Men should go into battle and kill the enemy, kill until the world is turned upside down and the earth and mountains are quaking!”

The Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly waved its wings gently and said in disappointment, “Unfortunately, there are too few opponents in the forest for us to kill.”

In the time to burn an incense stick, they stormed the vast Spirit Refinement Forest and obliterated all enemies just like plowing up a courtyard, leaving not a single person alive along the way.

But Little Silver and the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly still had not fully vented their hatred.

“Little Silver, I’ll leave this to you; I want to know about Xue Qingyi.”

With a boom, Lin Xun threw the captured Saint to the ground. He did not even bother to interrogate him and just let Little Silver take care of it.

Swoosh!

With a flash, Little Silver entered the captured Saint’s mind-sea.

The reason why Lin Xun was so concerned about Xue Qingyi was because he was one of the Azure Blue Eight Supremes and also the leader of the Blood Demon Ancient Domain. He wielded great power and led experts of various clans. Even supreme Saints had to obey his order. He had absolute authority.

If he was able to kill him, then it would no doubt be a heavy blow to the Blood Demon Ancient Domain!

Before long, Little Silver came back out, but the Saint’s spirit had already been destroyed, and he had died on the spot.

“Master, half a month ago, Xue Qingyi, under the escort of supreme Saints, has led the elite figures from the major clans and sects in the Blood Demon Ancient Domain to the Ancient Wasteland Territory which is also the heart of the Nine Domains Battlefield. His purpose is to enter the Absolute Hell Secret Realm and compete for the opportunity to become a Saint,” Little Silver reported.

“Based on this, they likely are still battling in the Absolute Hell Secret Realm and won’t return to the Blood Demon Territory for a while.”

Lin Xun fell into deep thought.

From what he knew, only supreme figures of the ninth longevity tribulation stage were qualified to enter the Absolute Hell Secret Realm for one month.

One month later, the Absolute Hell Secret Realm would disappear from the Nine Domains Battlefield.

“Does that mean the core figures such as Xue Qingyi are currently not in the City of Protection in the Blood Demon Territory?” Ruowu’s eyes lit up. “If that’s the case, even if we break into the city, we are unlikely to encounter great dangers.”

Her excitement made Lin Xun a little speechless. “You seem to be thinking too highly about the enemy and undermining our own power.”

Ruowu said with a smile, “I am just assessing the situation and acting within our capabilities.”

“Master, are we really going to break into their lair?” Little Silver’s eyes gleamed.

Lin Xun nodded. “It’s a shame that Xue Qingyi is not there. Otherwise, we could have taken this opportunity to get rid of him too.”

After that he commanded, “Little Silver, help me gather some information about the City of Protection. You need not fear the result of a hundred battles only if you know the enemy and know yourself.”

Little Silver smiled. “I have already found out some information from that old man’s spirit just now.”

He reported everything he knew.

The City of Protection, spanning an area of three thousand and eight hundred miles, was located in the far north of the Blood Demon Territory.

As the base camp of the Blood Demon Ancient Domain, it accumulated the power of all major clans, forces, and sects in the Blood Demon Ancient Domain. Many top figures including True Saints and supreme True Saints were gathered there.

The number of cultivators from the Blood Demon Ancient Domain who participated in the Conflict of the Nine Domain was around eight hundred thousand, and most of them were cultivators who had yet to reach the Saint Stage.

But a large number were supreme figures and Saints.

In normal times, not many cultivators would gather in the City of Protection. The eight hundred thousand experts would be dispersed across different areas of the Blood Demon Territory to prevent enemy invasion.

The number of experts stationed in the City of Protection was approximately one hundred thousand!

However, those one hundred thousand experts were the elite force of the Blood Demon Ancient Domain.

Moreover, a group of supreme Saints always watched over the city all year round. That combined power was already frightening.

Half a month ago, Xue Qingyi left with a group of peerless figures and also brought with him a group of supreme Saints. In other words, during this period, the City of Protection’s power had been significantly reduced.

Of course, it was still the base camp of the Blood Demon Ancient Domain, and so its power was still absolutely beyond terrifying.

After understanding the situation, Lin Xun did not give up on the plan and instead he immediately took action.

Ruowu couldn’t help asking, “Are you planning to just fight your way in?”

“What if I am?” Lin Xun asked calmly in response.

His black eyes flashed like lightning, and his expression gave a feeling of superiority that could not be concealed.

“This time, I’m going to teach those bastards of the Blood Demon Ancient Domain a lesson that they will never forget!”
