890. Chapter 888 Supreme Elder

Boom—boom—boom!

Yun Xianghan stepped on the flying boat, tearing through the sky at breakneck speed, almost turning into a blurred afterimage.

Soon after, she arrived near a hill in the southwest of Cangjing and halted above a valley.

At this very moment, a group of black-clad martial artists had already been waiting for some time.

They all wore black armor, their auras deep and heavy, each possessing terrifying peak-level strength! Seeing the flying boat swoop down, they all stepped forward, wearing a posture of utmost respect.

The leader was a stalwart black-armored man.

"Greetings, Supreme Elder!" the black-armored man bowed to Yun Xianghan, his attitude extremely cautious.

"How is the situation?" Yun Xianghan nodded lightly, her expression still icy.

The black-armored man took a deep breath, then reported solemnly: "Reporting to Supreme Elder, I have already brought Lu Yuan here as you ordered; the rest is up to you."

Yun Xianghan slowly nodded, gave a cold smile, and said: "Very well, if this goes smoothly, I will surely fulfill the promise I made you."

The black-armored man's eyes lit up, and he clasped his hands in thanks.

Instantly, his form flickered, he rose into the air, and vanished into the void deep within the forest.

After the black-armored man left, Yun Xianghan gazed down at the valley, a sharp light flashing between her brows.

"Lu Yuan! Today is your day of death!"

Boom—!

Accompanied by a earth-shaking roar, Yun Xianghan's body burst with blue light, instantly engulfing the entire valley.

Boom—boom—boom! Blue spiritual light exploded outward, kicking up a terrifying gale that shattered nearby ancient trees and boulders into dust.

Roar! Immediately after, a low, hoarse beastly howl suddenly echoed through the void, like the shrill cry of a ferocious bird, making hearts tremble with fear.

Whoosh—whoosh!

After a few breaths, a thick gray shadow shot out from the swirling dust and mist, swooping straight to appear before Yun Xianghan, revealing its hideous, ferocious true form.

"A demon beast… a Soul-Devouring Rat?"

After seeing the massive creature clearly, Yun Xianghan's expression shifted slightly, her wariness growing.

It turned out that this demon beast was actually a huge Soul-Devouring Rat, five or six zhang tall, its gray hair standing on end like steel needles.

Especially its grayish-brown belly, which showed a strange purplish-red hue, looking quite frightening!

Roar—roar!

The Soul-Devouring Rat let out a furious bark, its two fangs like daggers, flashing a chilling light.

"You're asking for death!"

Yun Xianghan shouted coldly, her right palm trembling slightly as a blinding cluster of spiritual light instantly rose.

Bang… boom! Spiritual power exploded; the Soul-Devouring Rat screamed and died on the spot, its massive body torn apart, dripping foul green fluid as it fell to the ground.

But just as she slew the Soul-Devouring Rat, a hazy gray figure suddenly shot up into midair, spewing a ball of yellow smoke that instantly filled the valley, obscuring their view.

"Huh? Not good!"

Yun Xianghan's expression changed again; she immediately urged the flying boat to turn around and prepare to return.

However, just as she activated her arts to flee, she found herself seemingly severed from that flying boat—everything felt utterly alien.

"Impossible!" Yun Xianghan's face paled; she hurriedly activated her arts to condense spiritual power and try to control the flying boat, but to no avail.

All her methods were like a mud cow entering the sea—not even a ripple was stirred.

"Hehehe! Yun Xianghan, we meet again!"

A strange laugh suddenly came from behind, followed by a thin, middle-aged man in gold robes drifting down to block her retreat.

"Is it you? Jin Yuanlang!"

Yun Xianghan's pupils contracted sharply, her heart jolted with surprise.

"Hahaha! Exactly, it's this young master! Yun Xianghan, Yun Xianghan, you think you can really escape? Dream on!" Jin Yuanlang threw his head back and laughed wildly, revealing a ferocious expression.

"Hmph! With your paltry skill, you think you can stop me, Yun Xianghan?"

Yun Xianghan frowned, suddenly realizing his cultivation had not increased much.

However, judging from the present, he is likely an aide of Lu Yuan.

Thinking this, she involuntarily shook her head and sighed, scanning him with a face full of regret.

"Hehe, Yun Xianghan, you think I'd be foolish enough to strike myself?" Jin Yuanlang's face darkened as he shook his head and sneered.

"Oh? Could it be that you've brought reinforcements?" Yun Xianghan narrowed her eyes slightly, speaking with a hint of surprise.

"Hehe! You guessed right!" Jin Yuanlang chuckled coldly, "Let me tell you plainly, the one I've summoned this time is none other than a top expert from Cangjing!"

"What… Cangjing?" Yun Xianghan's face changed dramatically upon hearing that.

Cangjing is the heart of the Canglanguo imperial clan and the city with the highest martial arts standards in all of Canglanguo, a gathering place for martial artists.

According to what she knew, the martial prowess of Cangjing's warriors even surpassed that of the Three Great Sects of Canglanguo!

Just what background does this Jin Yuanlang have? How does he know Cangjing's warriors? Could it be that he hides some mighty force behind him? This thought flashed through her mind and instantly seized her thoughts.

"Never mind!"

Yun Xianghan shook her head with a sigh, casting aside her distracting thoughts.

No matter what trump cards he holds, today she will slay him, then deal with the trouble that is Lu Yuan.

Boom—!

Having thought this, Yun Xianghan without hesitation unleashed the forbidden art "Blood-Smelting Blade," causing her aura to surge and an overbearing, unmatched killing intent to erupt violently.

"Hiss!" Feeling such a fierce blade intent, Jin Yuanlang couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air, his eyes flashing with intense excitement and greed.

"What terrifying killing intent! This is absolutely the strongest killing move I've ever seen in my life!" Hahaha!

Jin Yuanlang laughed nonstop, the greed in his eyes growing ever richer.

"Yun Xianghan! Even if you use a secret technique to temporarily boost your combat power, you still wouldn't dare to think of escaping my demon claws!"

Jin Yuanlang gave a ferocious smile; his aura instantly turned frenzied, he stomped his foot hard, and lunged at Yun Xianghan.

At the same moment, he opened his mouth and spat out a green-colored pill.

Boom! A green light flashed; the green-colored pill shot out and instantly exploded, forming a visible layer of green ripples that spread in an instant, covering a radius of a hundred zhang! 'Hiss! What a strange poison mist!'

Yun Xianghan's eyes twitched, and she cursed incessantly.

Although this layer of green poison mist could only block her vision, it still made her feel an inexplicable danger.

She understood that Jin Yuanlang's actions surely had another motive.

In this situation, she had to first avoid the poison mist's corrosion.

"Hmph! Even if you use poison, it may not necessarily work against me!"

Yun Xianghan's eyes flashed with a hint of resolve, she raised both arms, and rolling black Qi surged upward.

In an instant it turned into a black vortex that swirled downward, shielding her within and resisting the poison mist's corrosion.

"Hmph! How could a mere Soul-devouring Poison Mist possibly trouble me?"

Yun Xianghan gave a cold snort, clenched her right fist, and heavily struck the empty air.

Thud! A low, muffled sound rippled out, like thunder.

A silver arc burst forth from her arm, carrying an extremely terrifying pressure; in an instant it pierced through the layers of poison mist and blasted toward a certain point deep within the mist. (End of chapter)

In an instant it pierced through the layers of toxic mist and blasted straight out toward a certain point deep within the mist. (End of chapter)
