Chapter 472

As a human, how could he appear there?

Although Liu Die'er looked stunningly beautiful and young, she was already over two hundred years old.

Having experienced the ways of the world, she naturally saw through what Su Ming was thinking at a glance.

"He voluntarily went to the top floor to endure the pain of endless magic power refining."

"Xuan-lang closed himself off, refusing to see me or our daughter, and has lived like this for a hundred years."

"I think he has already gone mad..."

As she spoke, her eyes turned red, and she bit her lip lightly.

"Little sword cultivator, if you are going to see him, can you take me with you?"

"I just want to see him one last time."

"After that, you can kill or punish me as you wish." She looked at Su Ming, determined.

Brilliant light flashed in Su Ming’s eyes, making her delicate body tremble as if pierced by sword Qi.

Too similar... too similar to Xuan-lang.

Her deep, yearning feelings flowed out.

At this moment, how she longed to see him.

Su Ming lowered his head and pondered.

If it were as she said, that Li Xuan had already gone mad, then it would be very difficult for him to persuade him to help fight the Demon Monarch.

Unless... his wife, Liu Die'er, came forward.

If he killed Liu Die'er now, not only would he fail to persuade Li Xuan to help fight the demon race, but he would also be treated as a mortal enemy by Li Xuan and attacked.

Therefore, Su Ming chose to take her with him.

Immediately, Su Ming grabbed her waist and killed his way up!

The demons above the 90th floor were all great demons with extremely pure demonic blood.

But even if they joined forces, they could not stop Su Ming.

Su Ming was simply like a god of war, rushing up and slaughtering with destructive force.

Wherever he passed along the way, he could hear the angry curses of some Demon Ancestors who had not yet broken free from the suppression of the chains.

"Damn Zi Tuo, he is actually extracting our demonic power!"

"Bullying us for being old!"

An aged Demon Ancestor was bound to the wall by chains, Dao patterns flickering on its back, continuously refining its power.

"Damn it!!!"

"When this sovereign comes into the world, I will definitely kill this junior Demon Monarch!"

One after another, the aged Demon Ancestors, because they had been refined for too long, had their strength weakened too much and could no longer break free from their bonds, so they could only have their demonic power extracted by Zi Tuo.

The moment they saw Su Ming passing by while holding Liu Die'er, all the Demon Ancestors on this 99th floor, totaling sixty or seventy, had their eyes sharpen.

"Is that... Zi Tuo’s daughter!?"

"He extracts our demonic power, then we shall suppress and kill his daughter!"

In an instant, the Demon Ancestors on this floor were filled with monstrous anger, their emotions stirred.

"Kill her, kill Liu Die'er!"

All the Demon Ancestors exerted all their strength together, desperately breaking free from their bonds and attacking Su Ming and Liu Die'er.

"Junior demon girl, if you want to blame someone, blame your father for being Zi Tuo!" The old ancestors said with angry faces.

Terrifying demonic power condensed together, filling this floor, causing the high tower to shake and lime to fall in a rustle.

They would rather exhaust all their remaining demonic power and face the end of being refined by the high tower than fail to kill Liu Die'er for revenge!

Liu Die'er was shocked, tears dripping down.

These Demon Ancestors were all extremely powerful existences; thousands of years ago, every one of them was at the Demon Venerable level.

Their status in the demon race back then, even if not Demon Monarchs, was at least at the level of Ancient Demon Venerables.

Father actually... treated the Demon Ancestors like this...

She did not expect that her small request would cause the death of this little sword cultivator who looked so similar to Xuan-lang.

The sense of guilt in her heart, already like a mountain, grew even deeper.

"Little sword cultivator, let me go and run away quickly."

"You don't need to take me to see him anymore!" She shouted hoarsely, unwilling for Su Ming to die for her sake.

"Leave me behind and run away quickly!" Liu Die'er said.

Su Ming held her even tighter, suppressing all her struggles.

"Don't get in my way." He said with an indifferent expression.

Subsequently, he looked around the world and shook his hand casually.

Terrifying sword intent swept over like a monstrous river flood.

Over a thousand different flying swords flowed and attacked.

The sharpness of that sword Qi flashed, and in just an instant, it shredded all the demonic Qi on this floor and suppressed and killed more than half of the Demon Ancestors!

After possessing Heart·Sword Control, Su Ming’s strength had experienced a cliff-like increase.

The flying swords condensed using other skills or equipment items could also be driven by [Heart·Sword Control], thereby increasing their lethality!

After completely slaughtering dozens of Demon Ancestors, Su Ming’s level rose another floor, finally reaching 69!

He did not hesitate at all and added these attributes to Strength.

Now, his Strength had reached 970 points.

Holding Liu Die'er, golden light shone brilliantly in his eyes as he looked down upon his surroundings.

"Who dares to kill her?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Die'er’s eyes trembled, as if she saw the scene on Shushan back then where Xuan-lang protected her with all his might.

She was instantly bathed in tears.

The remaining Demon Ancestors, each one weak and miserable, stared fixedly at Liu Die'er in shock.

"Beast... you actually side with a human sword cultivator."

"Have you forgotten how they, the human sword cultivators, treated us ten thousand years ago!!" Several injured Demon Ancestors looked at Liu Die'er and said angrily.

Liu Die'er could not speak, her eyes filled with sorrow.

The human race could not tolerate her, and the demon race could not tolerate her either.

Was there really no place in this vast world that could tolerate her?

"Noisy." Su Ming was expressionless, sword Qi flowing as he raised his hand.

He activated the Nine Swords of Dugu!

Whoosh!

The sword wind shredded the demonic power filling the sky, and the terrifying wind roar shattered the curtain of demonic wind.

A full 17 flying swords activated the Nine Swords of Dugu simultaneously, and in just an instant, they slaughtered all the Demon Ancestors on this floor!

[Used Nine Swords of Dugu to kill ten full-health units in seconds]

[Achieved the deep-enemy-breaking condition for the Nine Swords of Dugu affix]

[Unlocked affix: Deep Enemy Breaking]

Deep Enemy Breaking could convert 50% of the Nine Swords of Dugu’s damage into piercing damage.

Coupled with Su Ming’s clear sword intent and the effect of the Sharp Stone Earring, that was 100% piercing damage, which could ignore all armor!

Su Ming’s gaze was gloomy as he scanned the entire scene.

The entire Demon-Suppressing Tower had been almost completely slaughtered, and presumably, Zi Tuo’s power had also been greatly weakened!

Su Ming took Liu Die'er and rushed toward the top floor, moving forward without looking back.

Finally, the two arrived at the 100th floor, the top of the tower!

Seeing the scene here, Su Ming was shocked.

This place was covered in rune restrictions, and the floor was filled with the water of Dao methods used to refine the demons within.

He saw a young man standing here alone; his figure was illusory, and he no longer had a physical body.

Li Xuan’s long hair fluttered, his back turned to the two, his broad back filled with the vicissitudes of life.

"Xuan-lang..." Liu Die'er broke free from Su Ming’s embrace, stepped forward, and said softly.

Hearing this, Li Xuan’s eyes sharpened violently, filled with monstrous killing intent, as if he had already fallen into demonic ways!
