Urban Undying Lord-Chapter 1439 - 1458: Heart-Slaying

"You...?"

Bai Gu Daoist’s expression changed dramatically. He wanted to refute Ye Xuan but was at a loss for words because what Ye Xuan said was indeed true.

"And you."

Ye Xuan casually pointed at Qing Gui Daoist, a cold smile appearing as he spoke, "Qing Gui Daoist, you were originally the Left Protector of the Tongming Sect, but fell in love with the Tongming Holy Daughter and were rejected by her. Later, on the wedding day of Tongming Holy Daughter and Beiming Saint Heir, you poisoned and killed Beiming Saint Heir, and further defiled Tongming Holy Daughter. Finally, both sects issued a kill order for you. You’re even worse than Bai Gu Daoist. Wouldn’t you say you’re nothing more than a stray dog?"

"You’re talking nonsense! I indeed did poison him, but I didn’t kill Beiming Saint Heir. That vile woman Tongming Holy Daughter framed me, and claimed I defiled her purity. I must kill that bitch!" Qing Gui Daoist lost his composure, angrily shouting at Ye Xuan.

"And you, Chi Mo Daoist."

Ye Xuan ignored Qing Gui Daoist’s angry shouts and treated him as if he were invisible, pointing at Chi Mo Daoist, "While you may not belong to the Three Religions, your audacity is extraordinary. In pursuit of your own cultivation, you slaughtered disciples guarding the Spirit Vein of the Three Religions, leaving no survivors in your wake. Eventually, the Three Religions discovered your actions, and you spent years being hunted by them. Wouldn’t you say you’re a stray dog too?"

"You’re right, but we cultivators must seize power and resources to grow strong in this harsh land of the Northern Territory. The Three Religions control the cultivation resources in the North. They forced me into this," Chi Mo Daoist growled angrily.

Clap—Clap—Clap!

Suddenly, the sound of clapping rose in the silence. Chi Lian Witch slowly stood up, gazing at Ye Xuan with a subtle expression, "In such a short time, Daoist, you managed to uncover the backgrounds of the three demons. I truly admire you."

Chi Lian Witch paused slightly, then smirked disdainfully, "But if Daoist thinks uncovering our backgrounds will cause us to lose composure, then Daoist underestimates us greatly."

"Oh, no!"

Ye Xuan shook his hands with a smile, looking at Chi Lian Witch, "How could I possibly intend for you to lose composure? I simply know you well, and I greatly admire you. After all, you’ve been hunted by the Northern Territory’s Three Great Sects for so many years, and yet here you are, casually chatting and drinking with me. That alone earns my utmost respect as Sect Hierarch."

Ye Xuan paused again, playfully observing Chi Lian Witch, "Though I truly respect the three Daoists, Chi Lian Daoist, you are the one I admire most."

"Me?"

Chi Lian Witch’s brow furrowed, a flicker of anxiety passing her eyes. It’s not surprising Ye Xuan knew about the three demons’ deeds, as their enmity with the Northern Territory’s Three Great Sects was well known. But her own secrets were exceedingly obscure, known to very few.

Yet, as she saw Ye Xuan’s playful and mocking expression, Chi Lian Witch’s heart quivered, leaving her with the unsettling feeling of standing utterly exposed, her secrets laid bare to Ye Xuan.

"Of course, it’s Chi Lian Daoist. You’re truly ruthless, killing your own Master, senior sisters, and junior sisters, all for a single man," Ye Xuan said with a light chuckle.

"You’re lying!"

Abruptly, Chi Lian Witch seemed agitated, her calm demeanor twisted instantly, as her eyes turned blood red, emitting an extremely terrifying aura. Her gaze at Ye Xuan was filled with panic.

"I’m lying?"

Facing the frantic Chi Lian Witch, Ye Xuan smirked disdainfully, "Whether I’m lying or not, Chi Lian Daoist knows best. Still, I admire Chi Lian Daoist profoundly. With your cultivation and beauty, what kind of man could drive you to such madness?"

"There’s a saying: ’A fit of anger bursts for beauty,’ although it doesn’t quite apply to you, Daoist. You can use ’A fit of anger bursts for a beau,’ which is considered a romantic tale in the Northern Territory.

"You’re courting death!"

Rumble!

Under Ye Xuan’s tactful mocking, Chi Lian Witch shouted in anger, and the Nine Poison Demon Light exploded, shattering the empty space as it surged towards Ye Xuan, threatening to pulverize him into dust.

"Mere child’s play, dare to make a spectacle here?" 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Ye Xuan’s hand struck like lightning, his fingers seemingly gripping all Heaven and Earth, slamming down upon Chi Lian Witch. The terrifying funeral light shook mountains and rivers, shattering the nine-colored poison light and sending Chi Lian Witch sprawling.

What’s the joke?

Ye Xuan had outright defeated Chi Yan Daoist, who had opened the second Heavenly Gate of the Immortal Realm, while Chi Lian Witch had only opened the first. In this clash, she was thoroughly outmatched.

"Chi Lian?"

The three demons’ expressions changed dramatically, instantly catching Chi Lian Witch, and they swiftly surrounded Ye Xuan, their faces dark as water, full of chilling intent.

"I advise you not to fight against me. Otherwise, in the future, it won’t just be the Northern Territory’s Three Great Sects hunting you, the Heavenly Court will also mark you as enemies."

Facing the surrounding four demons, Ye Xuan spoke calmly, completely unfazed, maintaining a confident stance that implied he had control over them.

"Tell me, how do you know my secret?"

Chi Lian Witch commanded harshly and threatened, "Her secret was only known to very few, yet Ye Xuan was not from the Northern Territory. How did he know it?"

"You were once the Holy Daughter of the Heavenly Maiden Sect, but murdered your Master and harmed your fellow sect sisters for a man, becoming the greatest disgrace since the sect’s founding. Your survival up to now is a miracle," Ye Xuan replied indifferently.

"Tell me, how do you know my matter?"

Chi Lian Witch shouted in panic, feeling completely exposed. She had no secrets before Ye Xuan, which disturbed her deeply.

Chi Lian Witch’s life had been extraordinarily tragic, and this was her most pressing concern. Today, Ye Xuan mercilessly revealed her scars, filling her with immeasurable anger and shock.

"How I know isn’t important. What’s important is you four have sworn vengeance against the Northern Territory’s Three Great Sects. You’ve been hiding like stray dogs across various lands, and now you seek an alliance with me. It seems to benefit me immensely, but should the Northern Territory’s Three Great Sects learn of this, attacking the Heavenly Court might be justified, considering the threat posed by you four," Ye Xuan stated coldly.

Listening to Ye Xuan, the four demons gradually calmed down. Although they resented Ye Xuan’s insults, they couldn’t deny that his words were true.

While they were Immortals, they lived like stray dogs hiding in the Northern Territory, hated bitterly by the Three Religions, with anyone associated with them condemned to a dreadful end.
