Chapter 138: It's the Work of a Demon-Person Again!

But the Golden-Armored Woman's reply left Dongfang Shu completely speechless: "I don't care, the person I've set my sights on is mine!"

"If you don't agree, we will just keep fighting. I'm not afraid of death, are you?"

She knew very well that if Lu Tianyu were allowed to choose, he certainly would not choose her.

Because just now, when Lu Tianyu encountered a crisis, she did not step in to help, yet Dongfang Shu had stepped in, and it seemed he had even gained Lu Tianyu's favor.

She was a person who stuck to her principles; once she set a goal, she would strive to achieve it even if it meant death.

She never considered other, more moderate methods.

Once these words were spoken, Dongfang Shu was instantly enraged: "I've been yielding to you because you are a woman!"

"Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Hum!

The aura around his body surged and doubled in an instant, and his twin swords hummed, erupting with heaven-topping Sword Intent.

The Golden-Armored Woman, however, let out a cold snort: "You think you're the only one who was holding back!"

"Let's see who kills whom first!"

Hum!

Golden light burst forth from her body, and her entire aura also surged and doubled in an instant.

The Golden Blade hummed, its battle intent soaring to the heavens.

Swish! Swish!

The two figures collided once again.

With light from blades and shadows from swords crisscrossing, dense spatial cracks appeared all around the two of them.

At this moment, many people outside who had followed the heaven-and-earth anomalies arrived, and upon seeing the two fighting, they all retreated far away.

It was a battle between heaven-level beings; they were afraid of being caught in the crossfire.

Yet they did not leave; they stayed far away to watch.

After all, battles between Emperor Realm cultivators are rarely seen; these people usually maintain restraint and do not easily resort to fighting.

In their eyes, a battle between Emperor Realm cultivators was much like gods fighting.

And Lu Tianyu, observing this situation, was suddenly delighted: "Fight, keep fighting, it's best if you keep fighting forever, I'm slipping away!"

His body merged into the Dark Turbid Current, preparing to use the massive centrifugal force of the current's rotation to fling himself out and seize the chance to escape.

He found a node and estimated that the vortex would fling him to the side opposite the two combatants, and then he would flee.

Swish!

The immense power of the Dark Turbid Current flung him out.

But the next second, Lu Tianyu's expression changed drastically: "Ah? This..."

Because the vortex was rotating in a ring, he would also move in a ring when flung out.

By the time he stabilized his figure, his body had actually been flung to a position beneath the two of them.

Although the distance was two hundred zhang, for a Great Vehicle Stage cultivator, this distance was merely a single stride.

Fortunately, the two seemed lost in their battle and did not notice Lu Tianyu.

Whoosh!

Lu Tianyu seized the chance to use the Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron to hide his aura and flew toward the direction of the Bahuang Xingyu.

His dantian had been sealed for half a year, and having just broken through to the Heart Movement Stage, Lu Tianyu was not yet very familiar with it.

However, the benefits brought by Soul Dual Cultivation allowed him to adapt quickly, and his speed soared to the absolute limit he could reach.

But what Lu Tianyu did not know was this.

The moment he emerged from the Dark Turbid Current, the Golden-Armored Woman and Dongfang Shu had already noticed him.

However, they were in the middle of an intense battle and could not relax.

Yet, their faces were filled with shock.

Because they both saw Lu Tianyu fly out directly from the Dark Turbid Current without any protection.

The Dark Turbid Current, which even they, as Emperor Realm cultivators, dared not enter, this kid was completely unafraid of, emerging from it as if taking a leisurely stroll!

If this were told to others, no one would believe it.

To what extent had this kid's body been tempered?

They both thought simultaneously that it must be because Lu Tianyu had undergone the lightning tribulation just now, causing his body to undergo another transformation!

Seeing Lu Tianyu running far away, the two finally came to their senses and stopped fighting by mutual consent.

Then, their figures vanished simultaneously as they went to pursue Lu Tianyu.

They were Great Vehicle Stage cultivators; even if Lu Tianyu ran with all his might, their speed was still far greater than his.

This time, both of them slowed down by mutual consent.

Because they knew that if they got too close to Lu Tianyu, they would be discovered, and the two would clash again.

They did not want to lose track of Lu Tianyu due to another conflict.

Only, what they did not know was that Lu Tianyu had long since discovered their tracks: "They followed me after all."

"Although I can't shake them off, fortunately, they don't have any malice toward me!"

Thinking of this, Lu Tianyu breathed a sigh of relief and piloted his flying boat toward the Bahuang Xingyu at a normal speed.

Seeing that Lu Tianyu had slowed his speed, the two also slowed down.

They did not speak, but followed at a distance, neither too far nor too near.

Five days later, Lu Tianyu arrived at the Bahuang Xingyu and headed straight for the Nanhuang Clan Li Family.

He had arranged to meet Gui Sheng Xie Yi at the Li Family.

Before he even reached the Li Family, the voice of Qian Gu Nu Di rang out: "Husband, there is demonic energy at the Li Family; it seems a demon-person has struck!"

Lu Tianyu was slightly startled upon hearing this: "Demon Qi again?"

"Why have the Demon people been so active lately?"

A while ago, on his way to the Zhuoliu Xingyu, he encountered Demon people slaughtering a village.

This time, the Demon people acted directly within the Bahuang Xingyu.

He had a faint feeling that these two incidents should be connected.

"Didn't you get news when you performed Soul Searching on Ancestor Black Bone that there is a Demon Cave beneath the Kulu Zong?"

The voice of Qian Gu Nu Di sounded leisurely: "The Nether Three Sects suffered great losses at your hands, and since they cannot seek outside help, they can only rely on themselves."

"Apart from practicing Demon Art to increase their strength, they seem to have no other way."

"Practicing Demon Art is the best way to quickly increase strength and enhance combat power among the same rank."

Lu Tianyu's eyes turned cold upon hearing this: "A fine Nether Three Sects!"

"I was waiting to wipe you out later, but it seems it will have to be moved up!"

He decided that after checking the situation of the Li Clan, he would take action against the Nether Three Sects.

The Nether Three Sects are vicious and ruthless, practicing evil arts and treating human lives as mere grass.

If they are not eliminated, the Bahuang Xingyu will never be at peace, and who knows what major disaster the Nether Three Sects might stir up.

By then, it would be too late to regret!

The flying ship soon arrived above the Li Clan.

Qing Yuan had long been waiting here: "Young Master, it must be the work of the Demon people; I can sense Demon Qi!"

Her expression was grave: "If my guess is correct, it should be the Soul Refining Banner of the Demon race, which extracted the divine souls after killing everyone."

Lu Tianyu looked down and was immediately shocked.

The entire Li Clan residence had turned a blood-red color, with the stench of blood soaring to the sky.

A faint blood mist was condensing from below, mixed with heavy resentment, and the black, evil, and violent aura hidden within it should be the Demon Qi.

The ground was covered with blood-red corpses and bones, filling the entire courtyard.

One could imagine that after the Demon people killed the members of the Li Clan, they collected all the corpses and bones here.

The Li Clan members were filled with monstrous hatred, forced to watch helplessly as their clansmen were killed and their Living Soul were forcibly extracted.

Afterward, they were also killed.

The resentment condensed and did not dissipate, indicating that the Li Clan members died with deep grievances, and their level of resentment had reached a certain point.
