Chapter 247 Return
It is Helian Yu.
However, he was covered in injuries and staggered a couple of steps when he stood up.
Song Huai'an lay on the ground, covered in blood and dust, already lifeless.
Helian Yu walked step by step toward Xie Wanning.
"Troublesome ants, even in their dying moments they struggle a bit." Helian Yu dusted himself off and pulled the demonic sword from Xie Wanning's body.
“Your turn. You are also a disciple of the Qingyun Sect. Just thinking about how Yan Ze would go mad if he knew that his two disciples had died at my hands.” Helian Yu revealed a smug smile, the tip of his sword slicing towards Xie Wan Ning’s neck.
"Luo Ze, bring your sword!"
Luo Zejian stood in front of Xie Wanning, emanating a chilling aura.
"Then you'll be disappointed. My death won't change Yan Ze at all." Xie Wanning stood up, picked up the Luo Ze sword, and a murderous intent flashed in her eyes: "However, your death will move Yan Ze."
"Is that so? What arrogance." Helian Yu's demonic energy rippled, and a scarlet light flashed in his eyes.
Xie Wanning gripped the Luoze Sword, which exuded a chilling aura, her knuckles turning white from the force. Her eyes, however, showed no sign of retreat, fixed intently on Helian Yu before her, as if trying to see right through him. The howling wind whipped her clothes through the air, yet her posture remained as upright as a pine tree, radiating an indomitable stubbornness amidst the oppressive atmosphere.
Helian Yu looked at the overconfident swordsman before him, a mocking sneer curling at the corner of his lips. His laughter seemed to shatter the surrounding air, emitting a buzzing sound. His black robes fluttered in the wind, and demonic energy surged like a raging black tide, cracking the earth and instantly withering and turning flowers and plants into dust wherever it went.
"You, a mere ant-like sword cultivator, dare to challenge this Demon Lord? You're simply courting death!" Helian Yu's voice was deep and cold, filled with boundless majesty and disdain, as if he had already stood at the pinnacle of the world, and nothing in the world mattered to him.
Xie Wanning did not respond to the Demon Lord's taunts, but instead took a deep breath and concentrated all her spiritual power into the sword in her hand.
In an instant, the Luo Ze Sword shone brightly, and a dazzling sword aura shot into the sky, attempting to break through the oppressive darkness.
"Ice Crack!" Xie Wanning shouted, rushing towards Helian Yu like an arrow released from a bow. Her long sword drew a sharp arc, stabbing towards Helian Yu's throat with unstoppable momentum.
This sword strike embodied all her strength and determination. Although she knew that the gap in strength between herself and the Demon Lord was as vast as an insurmountable chasm, she would never back down.
Helian Yu snorted coldly, calmly raised his right hand, and with a gentle wave, a black demonic light met Xie Wanning's sword energy like lightning.
With a deafening boom, sword energy and demonic light collided in mid-air, unleashing a dazzling light and powerful shockwave. Xie Wanning felt an overwhelming force rushing towards her, which she was completely unable to resist. She was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Cough cough..." Xie Wanning struggled to get up from the ground, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
"That's enough. I've had my fun. It's time to send you on your way." Helian Yu sneered, taking the demonic sword and approaching Xie Wanning step by step.
Xie Wanning collapsed to her knees, her spiritual energy completely depleted, leaving her with no strength to even stand up.
The sword blade gleamed as it thrust towards Xie Wanning.
Suddenly, Xie Wanning was pushed hard and fell to the side.
Looking up again, he saw the demonic sword piercing through another person's body.
"Oda!"
The demonic sword pierced through Tian Ruochun's body, and blood gushed out, turning into a pool of blood on the ground.
"No, no..." Xie Wanning cried out in a hoarse voice, crawling over little by little to catch Tian Ruochun who had fallen to the ground.
Xie Wanning trembled all over, tears welling up in her eyes and rolling down her cheeks, splashing onto the back of her tightly clenched hands.
"Why? Why did you take that sword for me? I won't die." Xie Wanning murmured to herself, her voice hoarse and broken, each word seemingly squeezed out from between her teeth. Her voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible, leaving only desperate sighs: "Xiao Tian, why were you so foolish? You'll die this way."
"Sister Wan Ning, I know you will be resurrected." Tian Ruochun smiled faintly, reaching out to touch Xie Wan Ning's face, her eyes filled with deep heartache: "But, you will be in pain, you must cherish your own life!"
"Enough! If you're going to die, then die already, and I'll send both of you to hell together!" Helian Yu said irritably, picking up the demon sword and slashing at Xie Wanning.
However, Xie Wanning raised her hand and gripped the sword directly. A scarlet light flashed in her eyes as she roared, "You're the one who deserves to die!"
The blade sliced through Xie Wanning's palm, and blood flowed down her arm, but Xie Wanning clung tightly to the demonic sword.
"Body cultivator? Hmph, interesting." Helian Yu sneered and forcefully raised the demonic sword: "However, this ends here."
The sword flashed fiercely, and blood flew everywhere.
The demonic sword struck Xie Wanning's shoulder directly, and she leaned forward, taking out the red ribbon from her bosom.
The crimson flames burned Helian Yu's hand, forcing him to take a step back.
Xie Wanning held the red ribbon, blood flowing from the wounds on her hands. The blood was absorbed by the red ribbon, sparking even more brightly.
"go with!"
A red ribbon flutters across the ocean, entwining Helian Yu.
"Damn it! Phoenix Fire! Didn't you lose your Phoenix Power?" Helian Yu said with difficulty, his eyes flashing with anger.
After Xie Wanning bent down to feed Tian Ruochun the pill, she instantly collapsed to the ground. Her cheeks were deathly pale, her lips were bloodless, and her whole body was growing cold.
Frost began to spread across her body, and the cold, poisonous chill began to erode her.
However, it's almost time.
as predicted.
"Report! Your Majesty, the human and demon cultivators have launched a joint attack, and we are about to be overwhelmed!" A demon soldier rushed over, his anxious voice echoing throughout the demon palace.
"What!" Helian Yu ripped off the red ribbon, and the phoenix fire was swallowed by the demonic energy and gradually went out.
Strands of demonic energy coiled around his limbs and bones, like agile yet deadly snakes, winding their way up his arms until they converged in his palm, forming a constantly rotating black vortex that seemed capable of sucking everything in the world into an endless abyss.
The demonic sword exuded a dense demonic aura. Helian Yu opened his eyes again, and his eyes turned blood red. He gathered all the demonic energy in his body and walked towards Xie Wan Ning.
"You did it, didn't you? What are you thanking me for? Never mind, you can't escape now," Helian Yu said fiercely.
The demonic sword flew up swiftly and pierced Xie Wanning in an instant.
"puff!"
Blood gushed out, pain spread throughout her body, and crimson flames enveloped Xie Wanning.
The demonic sword did not stop, but continued to slash towards Tian Ruochun.
"do not want!"
With a desperate cry, a crimson flame suddenly flew towards the demonic sword, deflecting its trajectory.
A loud phoenix cry rang out, and in the distance, a crimson phoenix flew towards the Demon Palace.
Xie Wanning stood up; all her wounds were healing.
The power of the phoenix has returned. Her cultivation has been restored.
Helian Yu was about to continue his attack.
Suddenly, a black sword severed his right arm.
