Chapter 1348: Yin-Yang Curse Seal

~7 min read 1,342 words

There was no warning; it was so sudden that it caught everyone off guard.

When Shi Zhixuan regained his senses, he found that his movement technique had been interrupted, and he had fallen abruptly from mid-air.

Su Xuan was strong; he had known that for a long time.

Shi Zhixuan did not harbor hopes of defeating Su Xuan; as long as he could seize the Evil Emperor Relic in Su Xuan's hand, then escape from here and digest the primordial essence within the Evil Emperor Relic, Shi Zhixuan was confident he could eliminate the hidden dangers in his body, return to his peak, and ascend even higher beyond that peak.

By then, if he were to fight Su Xuan again, who would win and who would lose remained to be seen.

Shi Zhixuan had also prepared to fight Su Xuan, and had even anticipated that the Eastern Lord might come to Su Xuan's aid, but Shi Zhixuan was not panicked; his goal was to seize the Evil Emperor Relic.

Seize the relic and run, and An Long and the others on the side would surely strike to help him.

As long as he did not engage in a life-or-death struggle with Su Xuan, and because he had estimated Su Xuan's strength and prepared himself mentally, the situation of becoming a prisoner like the first time he met Su Xuan would not happen again.

Even though Su Xuan taking out the Evil Emperor Relic had left Shi Zhixuan very stunned.

But ever since he had been subdued by Su Xuan's force, Shi Zhixuan had made various plans.

It was not exactly a surprise.

He struck because he had a degree of certainty.

The most likely outcome was that he would seize the Evil Emperor Relic and escape.

But Su Xuan's methods shocked Shi Zhixuan once again.

He could sense his internal energy circulating within his body and could feel that there was no problem with his state.

But he simply could not move.

It was as if this entire void had been imprisoned, and he could no longer move freely within it.

Shi Zhixuan lay on the ground, unable to move, his eyes filled with astonishment.

The rest of the Demonic Sect members were also stunned.

An Long, Hou Xibai, and Yang Xuyan, upon seeing Shi Zhixuan strike and realizing he intended to seize the Evil Emperor Relic, had even prepared to help him.

They had also anticipated a battle between Shi Zhixuan and Su Xuan.

As it turned out, they had not expected Su Xuan to just spit out a single word.

All of Shi Zhixuan's movements had vanished, and now he was crawling on the ground in a humiliating posture.

This was an extremely incredible thing.

Who was Shi Zhixuan? A generation's Evil King, once proud of the entire Demonic Sect, a true hero figure. Even after failing against Bi Xiuxin and retiring from the world, he had never shown such a dejected posture.

Yet now, in front of Su Xuan, he had become like this.

Zhao Deyan and the others were shocked in their hearts.

Yin Empress Zhu Yuyan, while watching Shi Zhixuan crawl on the ground without any movement, hatred flowing in her eyes, was also secretly guessing.

"A method very similar to Heavenly Demon power, acting directly on the spatial level? However, it is even more terrifying than Heavenly Demon power... Even Shi Zhixuan is restricted to the point of being unable to move..."

Zhu Yuyan speculated about Su Xuan's methods.

Then she regained her senses.

Only because Su Xuan spoke: "You want to seize the Evil Emperor Relic?"

Su Xuan's tone was very calm, but these words caused vast waves in Shi Zhixuan's heart. Shi Zhixuan's entire heartstrings vibrated; he could not control his body, which was unable to move, and following Su Xuan's words, it trembled involuntarily.

It was like an ant subconsciously feeling fear when facing a prehistoric beast.

Shi Zhixuan did not have the ability to speak; his body just kept trembling.

Su Xuan continued: "I know you have been seeking the Evil Emperor Relic, wanting to eliminate the hidden dangers in your body and return to your peak state."

This sentence made Zhu Yuyan and the others' eyes narrow.

Shi Zhixuan's body had problems? He was not in his peak state?

One could only say that Shi Zhixuan had been missing for too many years; even though he had taken two disciples, Hou Xibai and Yang Xuyan, the people of the Demonic Sect did not know his specific state very well. Now, they knew a little bit.

Zhu Yuyan even felt that this was an opportunity.

Years ago, because she was schemed against by Shi Zhixuan, her heart developed a flaw, and she could never ascend to a higher realm.

Now, Shi Zhixuan's body also had problems; clearly, he was not in his peak state.

If she took advantage of him not being in his peak state and found a way to get rid of him, perhaps she could avenge her great hatred.

As early as when Shi Zhixuan re-emerged in the world, Zhu Yuyan had prepared to perish together with him; one could only say the hatred between the two was truly too deep.

Su Xuan did not care what kind of trouble his words would bring to Shi Zhixuan.

He continued: "Unfortunately, the Evil Emperor Relic is the supreme treasure of my Evil Extreme Sect; it is not your thing. Only what I give you is yours. If I do not give it to you, you cannot snatch it, and you cannot even harbor the slightest desire to covet it."

"Shi Zhixuan, years ago you took the form of Pei Ju and helped the Sui Dynasty split the Turks; you are a person who truly does great things. I thought you could understand the times and see the general trend, but now, you have disappointed me."

Su Xuan's tone contained a sense of deep sorrow.

Once these words were spoken, it could not help but make people think of Su Xuan killing Bian Bufan earlier.

'Is he going to kill Shi Zhixuan?'

Zhu Yuyan couldn't help but think, staring fixedly at the direction of Su Xuan and Shi Zhixuan.

The rest of the people also subconsciously held their breath.

The unexpected result was that Su Xuan did not seem to have any intention of killing Shi Zhixuan.

Instead, he said softly: "However, for the sake of your daughter, it is indeed difficult for me to kill you, so this time, I will spare your life. I hope you will not let it happen again."

The reason Su Xuan gave surprised many people.

Shi Zhixuan's daughter, Shi Qingxuan, was not unfamiliar to many Demonic Sect members.

They had not expected this Evil Emperor to actually have some entanglement with Shi Zhixuan's daughter.

When Shi Zhixuan heard this, a complex look flashed in his eyes.

He felt extremely humiliated in his heart.

At this moment, he was in his evil aspect, and the thing he wanted most was to kill Shi Qingxuan so that he would have no more flaws.

As a result, the fact that he could survive was entirely due to Shi Qingxuan; how could he be comfortable?

He heard Su Xuan say again: "But you have overstepped after all; a capital crime can be avoided, but a living crime is hard to forgive."

"Yanfei, plant a Yin-Yang Curse Seal on him, and let him experience the feeling of being unable to live and unable to die."

Su Xuan looked at Yanfei beside him and gave the order.

Only then did everyone know that the Eastern Lord's real name was Yanfei.

It sounded like a concubine of this Evil Emperor; it was a very strange name.

Yanfei slowly stepped forward. In her palm, the Yin and Yang forces intertwined one after another. Finally, her delicate jade fingers pointed at Shi Zhixuan's brow, and on Shi Zhixuan's neck, a black and white pattern suddenly appeared; it was, shockingly... the Yin-Yang Curse Seal.
