Becoming the Villainess: I Dominate the Cultivation Realm with My Wok!-Chapter 378
This time, Yu Yan no longer stood aloof discharging waves of Spiritual Power. With a roar, he drew forth two short blades from somewhere, their material was chillingly cold, laced with a bizarre dark red hue, seemingly capable of cutting the eyes just by a glance.
"Soul Devourer?!" Cen Lizhui exclaimed once more, shocked that besides the Dragon Devouring Palm, this person possessed such a Divine Artifact?!
Lin Qing couldn’t believe it upon hearing: "The Soul Devourer you’re talking about, is it the one I think it is?!"
"Forged from Extremely Yin Meteorite Iron, soaked with the blood of ten thousand people, causing the dark red shade to seep into the material. It is said that those killed by this blade hear the cries of myriad souls and feel countless hands dragging them into the Eighteen Layers of Hell!" Cen Lizhui’s eyes filled with worry, but the battle unfolding now was clearly beyond what they could partake in...
He looked at Chen Muxue with a complicated gaze; how was it that the one who was only at the Nascent Soul Realm could turn into this? Or perhaps... was the person before them even Chen Muxue?
Lin Qing clicked his tongue a few times: "So it truly is that Demon Blade double-edged sword. But once you’re dead, who cares about all the wailing ghosts or hell, does anyone really bother?"
"Seems Brother Lin doesn’t believe in the reincarnation theory." Chu Wuyi didn’t quite agree.
Lin Qing pursed his lips. He did indeed want to know what the afterlife looked like, but the issue was, everyone who knew was dead. Try it, and you die.
While they exchanged these words, Yu Yan had already charged forward to engage in numerous rounds of tangled combat with Chen Muxue. Amidst the swirling black fog that continued to spread, their speed was so quick that only afterimages could be seen, a situation impossible for others at this realm to discern clearly.
A sudden "squelch!" resonated, a vivid red wave burst forth amidst the dense blackness. As the spilled blood splattered on the ground, it was as if it struck the chords of everyone’s hearts.
At that moment, everyone nearly forgot to breathe, simply holding their breath as they stared at the gradually dissipating black fog, unsure what kind of scene to anticipate.
As the dark mist cleared, the first thing that entered everyone’s sight was a hand, pale and distinctly articulated, continuously dripping crimson blood. The "drip, drip" sound seemed to set the stagnant time in motion again.
The sound of blood dripping seemed in sync with the heart still beating in that hand...
"No... Impossible... I am the designated heir of Black Dragon Night Brilliance..." Yu Yan’s hoarse voice appeared to announce this as his final words.
"Don’t make me laugh."
"Slash!"
The hand retracted from the back through the chest, severing all the tissue and blood vessels connected to the heart.
Yu Yan’s body suddenly went limp; he collapsed to the ground with a thud, his mouth still slowly opened and closed as if there were more words he wished to say. His pupils gradually returned to their original state, yet the blood threads and his unwilling gaze lingered without dispersing.
The Demon Blade, known to the world as "Soul Devourer," also fell to the ground. Chen Muxue murmured: "Old friend... who expected you to suffer in the hands of such a person before."
As her murmur faded, she flicked the tip of her foot, and Soul Devourer landed in her hand: "What designated heir of the Black Dragon, even with the Divine Artifact you can’t wield it properly, merely swinging wildly with its blade, must have been tough on you."
Those present were all so shocked their mouths hung open, this was a Void Refinement Realm expert, yet Chen Muxue executed Black Tiger Heart Stealing on him with such nonchalance?! Moreover, looking at Chen Muxue, she seemed to handle it with ease, not even panting a bit!
Chen Muxue put away the Soul Devourer, her gaze falling on Yu Yan’s corpse.
