Chapter 403: The Death of Yu Xuzi, the Furious Tianlian Zhenren

Not bad divine ability, I didn't expect there to be a swordsman like you in the Heavenly Heart Sect, what a pity.

Mu Longhao extended his right hand, directly shattering the surrounding sword technique; those hard, sharp sword techniques, in his hand, were like tofu, instantly crushed, a pinch crushed a pile, and his hand suffered nothing.

In a few moves, Mu Longhao arrived before Tianlian Zhenren; his right fingernails suddenly elongated like blades, thrusting toward Tianlian Zhenren's heart; this sudden change made Tianlian Zhenren's pupils contract, his body instinctively reacted, and the sword blade swung to block.

Bang.

The instant the claw and sword blade collided, a piercing sound rang out; that sound shook the soul, both frowned, clearly agitated by it; Tianlian Zhenren shoved Mu Longhao away, his body retreated about five meters, just stabilizing his stance, she drew her sword again.

His true qi burst forth, sword technique infused into the blade, the sword in his hand dotted the void.

He tapped repeatedly, and in the void lotus flowers bloomed one after another.

Each lotus flower was formed from condensed sword technique, creating a unique existence.

The rotating sword-technique lotus blossomed with dazzling light; each rotation deepened the sword technique, sharp sword technique encircling Mu Longhao, these sword techniques seemed to slice space itself, their sharpness imaginable; this move was aimed at Mu Longhao's life.

Tianlian.

After the mud, the lotus blooms.

The lotus blooms.

It is a sword move, also a divine ability, its power boundless.

The rotating sword technique tore Mu Longhao's clothes; his demonic aura erupted, impossible to conceal.

Hair appeared on his body, that thick layer of fur showing a hint of red.

Mu Longhao frowned, hands spread, one hand grabbed a lotus flower and forcibly crushed it.

The crushed lotus flower, the sword technique continued to rend his flesh.

On his palm, several wounds appeared, not deep, blood seeping out.

Around Mu Longhao's body, lotus flowers circled him, each rotation cutting his body, fur cut, body cut, Mu Longhao indifferent, demonic aura surged, the surrounding lotus flowers instantly shattered.

Countless shattered lotus petals fell to the ground, dissipating between heaven and earth before they even landed.

Not bad sword move; this move makes me very happy.

Mu Longhao's body half-transformed into a demon, unable to hide his true form.

Or rather, after fighting Chen Chuyang, he suffered a slight loss.

Tianlian Zhenren's pupils contracted, sword pointed at Mu Longhao, coldly saying: 'So it's you, the demon descended from Tianwai; the plague is your doing?'

Mu Longhao heard this and laughed loudly: 'Tianlian Zhenren, your vision is good, your strength is not bad either.'

If that's all, you are not a match for me.

This strength can only break its defense, not enough to wound him.

Mu Longhao's wounds quickly merged, disappearing after a few breaths.

Those sword techniques were also dispelled.

Seeing this, Tianlian Zhenren's face darkened; this move also could not inflict serious injury, the demon's strength before her exceeded her expectations.

This demon is hard to deal with; Yu Xuzi needs me over there, I cannot be delayed, I must quickly shake off this demon and rescue Yu Xuzi.

Yu Xuzi cannot die, otherwise I would have trouble explaining to my senior brother.

Just that.

Tianlian Zhenren was held back, Mu Longhao awaited her arrival; whoever comes will face the same.

She must find a way to leave quickly; once locked in a prolonged battle, Yu Xuzi's side cannot hold out long.

Repeated bursts of divine ability indicate Yu Xuzi is in danger.

Mu Longhao crept closer, blocking Tianlian Zhenren's path forward.

Are you trying to escape me, thereby reducing Baihu Cheng?

Is that boy inside the one you intend to rescue this time? Tianlian Zhenren, don't even think about it; I won't let you pass.

I have schemed for so long, finally seeing some progress; how could I let you ruin it?

Yu Xuzi must die, you are no exception, Tianlian Zhenren.

Mu Longhao has a big appetite; not only does he want to kill Yu Xuzi, but also the Tianlian Zhenren before him.

As for the other Heavenly Heart Sect members, they can't make it in time; even if they do, others will block them.

Here is his battlefield, his turf.

The Heavenly Heart Sect is not only watched by him; many people, many forces are watching.

Hmph.

Tianlian Zhenren knows she cannot escape today; to save Yu Xuzi, she must kill him.

However, Tianlian Zhenren lacks confidence to kill him.

Hum.

Boom.

Inside Baihu Cheng, Yu Xuzi lay amid the ruins, blood spraying.

The blood was reddish, no, somewhat blackish; this mouthful of blood contained several worms.

His body bore many wounds, each not minor.

Worms emerged from them, greedily gnawing his flesh.

Before him, the rat demon was growing, its swollen body twice as large as before.

Monstrous in appearance, one could no longer see its rat form.

Cough cough cough.

Yu Xuzi coughed violently, gritted his teeth and stood up, his true qi largely depleted.

He was unable to fight; the final flame before this monster seemed utterly feeble.

The rat demon ignored his attacks, stepping forward.

Jiehaha, Yu Xuzi, don't struggle anymore; from the moment you entered Baihu Cheng, it was destined that you would die here.

Everything here is a trap I have been waiting for you to come into.

Your body has already collapsed; my worms have filled your flesh, don't resist, just resign yourself to being devoured.

As he approached, the worms inside Yu Xuzi's body went mad, gnawing at his flesh.

Flesh, vitality, true qi—everything is food for the worms.

Pfft.

On the skin, a pustule burst, a worm poked its head out, a finger‑sized worm, slowly crawling out, disgustingly.

Yu Xuzi lowered his head, seized the worm's head, erupted with his last true qi, and burned that worm.

Pfft.

Pfft.

Pustules burst elsewhere on his body, worms crawling out one after another; he, unable to catch them, with his last strength, collapsed from the heart‑piercing pain, lying on the ground, powerless… to fight.

He, all his vitality, was rapidly draining away.

The Heavenly Heart Sect will not let you go.

Yu Xuzi let out his final shout; the Rat Demon heard it and sneered: "Hahaha, Yu Xuzi, you still don't understand—I am the incarnation of plague; when the time comes, it won't be the Heavenly Heart Sect that can't spare me, but whether I will spare Yu Xuzi."

I am the god of this world, a great god.

And you humans are nothing but my food.

More precisely, it is a kind of vessel.

A vessel for his descent.

The Rat Demon controlled the worms on his body, biting into his flesh, lifting him halfway into the air, and opened its huge maw.

Yu Xuzi watched helplessly as he fell into that maw, unable to resist.

Ah.

Crack.

Chewing sounds rose, and his screams echoed through Baihu Cheng.

Yu Xuzi's voice vanished instantly, his body bit by bit entering the Rat Demon's body.
