Luo Qingyao also realized this. She knew that no matter how high her cultivation or how strong her power, she couldn’t use them in front of this Beast Demon Dao. If she insisted on fighting to the end, she would only contaminate her own constitution. If her Pure Sword Body was polluted by the demonic path, that loss would be difficult to recover, and she might even become a slave to the Sword Dao, turning into a soulless walking corpse.

After weighing the pros and cons, she firmly decided on her course of action.

Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly felt a tremor.

This tremor was not from herself but from... the small world where her senior brother’s relics were preserved! It was left to her by her senior sister, Fu Ming.

More specifically, it was the Flying Sword Peach Blossom in the small world.

Since her senior brother’s disappearance, she had tried many times to call Peach Blossom. But this peculiarly shaped flying sword always exuded a sense of desolation, refusing to communicate with her. Many times, she even felt that Peach Blossom was sadder about her senior brother’s disappearance than she was.

Like a frozen peach blossom, it was now constantly trembling.

Luo Qingyao’s heart trembled along with it, and she asked, "Peach Blossom, do you wish to come out?"

The blood bar in the middle of the Peach Blossom Sword vibrated excitedly.

Luo Qingyao paused, "You want me to control you?"

Peach Blossom rotated.

"But I can’t. I don’t know how to control you." Luo Qingyao bit her lip, opened the small world, and let Peach Blossom out. "Do as you will, I will cooperate with you."

Suddenly, Peach Blossom darted into Luo Qingyao’s forehead.

Her eyes suddenly burst with two kinds of light and power.

One was the swift and fierce strike of awakening, the other the freezing cold of Lesser Cold that killed all things.

The two Sword Intents intertwined, instantly dispelling all the negative emotions in her heart, cutting away the filth that lured her into the Demon Dao.

Below, the Beast Demon Dao frowned, internally questioning, what’s going on? How did she suddenly break free from the soul’s filth?

At this moment, Luo Qingyao raised her sword, pointing at him, "Your sins, even a thousand cuts can’t eliminate a bit."

The Beast Demon Dao laughed wildly, "No wonder you’re a Great Sword Immortal, you do have some skills. Tsk tsk, it’s really not easy to lure you into corruption. What, is your senior brother not important to you at all?"

Luo Qingyao didn’t waste any words, drawing a sword flower obliquely and slashing towards him.

"Truly forgetful, I told you, before you kill me, you have to first kill these seven million nine hundred twenty-three thousand four hundred seventy-five people!" The Beast Demon Dao appeared deranged. This number was the count of people forming this huge Beast Furnace Cauldron, not even including the livestock.

The Sword Qi howled in, wrapped in thunder, shrouded in frost.

Transforming the night’s colors into an interweaving of blood and white. The radiance hung high, momentum like a rainbow.

"Do you really want to harm the innocent!" The Beast Demon Dao was extremely excited.

The Sword Qi fell upon him, but the harm he expected to see transferred to the innocent people and animals did not happen. He was cut into two pieces, falling to the ground.

The head of his upper body blankly looked at his flesh cauldron, only to see that the humans and animals cobbled together from various body parts were enveloped in a very gentle light. That light was filled with the vitality to heal everything, something that the Demon Cultivator abhorred the most because it brimmed with hope!

"Wha... what’s happening!" The Beast Demon Dao wanted to reconnect his body, but the Lesser Cold Sword Intent froze all his Qi and Dao.

All the humans and animals inside the flesh cauldron were disassembled, each forcibly stitched together part separated by that gentle light, flying and interweaving in the air, unexpectedly finding their respective body parts.

In just about a dozen breaths, human bodies returned to human bodies, animals to animals.

They were wrapped in clusters of Qi, soaring to the sky, transforming into meteors in the night, flying back to their homes.

Thus, this forest was a mere ordinary forest once more.

The Beast Demon Dao dumbfoundedly watched all this happen. He couldn’t understand what had happened, and the flesh cauldron he had spent over two thousand years forging was dismantled like this? Not only dismantled, but even restored, the incomplete lives of those people were completed.

He couldn’t imagine what kind of power this was.

What sort of Divine Techniques could achieve such a feat?

Unless... unless it was the Life Dao!

He stiffly turned his head, blankly staring at Luo Qingyao. Did this person actually comprehend the Life Dao? How could that be... that was the supreme Dao!

Luo Qingyao raised her sword again.

The Beast Demon Dao fell into utter madness, "One day, I’ll turn everyone around you into people and animals, people and animals!"

Luo Qingyao whispered softly, "That day will never come."

She struck with her sword.

The sword light hung in the sky, instantly engulfing him.

Not just his body, but also his soul and Dao.

Realizing that his Dao could not escape, the Beast Demon Dao finally screamed in despair, "No—" He finally at the moment of death, felt the most delightful despair of his life.

In the next moment,

Peach Blossom left Luo Qingyao’s Purple Mansion, piercing the night sky, and disappeared.

Luo Qingyao dumbly hovered in the air, looking in the direction Peach Blossom departed, tears suddenly flowing from the corners of her eyes.

Because, for a fleeting moment, she suddenly sensed the vast starry sky through the Dao Marriage Shackles.
