Chapter 159
After Yu Xi felt better, she immediately leaned on Su Xianyun's shoulder.
She could see that the demonic energy and spiritual energy behind her were devouring each other, and the blazing spiritual power was coming with such force that it was about to engulf the darkness.
Mu Xiaoran came to find her.
But she couldn't deal with Mu Xiaoran, so she could only leave it to Zhong Xian.
Just as Zhong Xian always taught her, she just had to leave as soon as possible and protect herself.
But she still understood that it was she who held Zhong Xian back.
If only she could be stronger, strong enough that she wouldn't need anyone else's protection.
Su Xianyun could sense Yu Xi's depressed mood.
What's wrong with Junior Sister? Why does she look so sad? Is she worried about Zhong Xian?
[So jealous, so jealous, so jealous! If I were stronger than Zhong Xian, I'd be the one Junior Sister is worried about right now... But why on earth would Mu Xiaoran target Junior Sister? He even dares to call Junior Sister 'Xi'er'? I don't even dare to call her that intimately, I should tear his mouth apart!]
"But Junior Sister is in a bad mood right now. As her senior, shouldn't I say something? But I haven't said anything to comfort her!"
Su Xianyun muttered in his heart, but his expression was tangled for a long time. He finally spoke out nervously with full mental preparation, almost biting his tongue:
"Junior sister, even if Zhong Xian dies, I will collect his body."
Su Xianyun felt that these words were enough to comfort Yu Xi.
He is even willing to collect Zhong Xian's body!
Zhong Xian doesn’t have to be left to die in the wilderness anymore, so my junior sister should be happy now!
Yu Xi: “…”
"Senior brother."
Yu Xi pursed her lips. Tears welled up in her eyes when she thought about Zhong Xian's death. Even though she knew Su Xianyun meant well, she still spoke in a chilling tone:
"Next time, don't comfort people."
Su Xianyun: QAQ
As soon as he saw Yu Xi's expression, he knew that he had not comforted her correctly and had made her angry!
Su Xianyun had no idea which word he had said wrong. He was so anxious that he wanted to return to the Demon Realm immediately, rush to the library, and find some books on how to communicate with others.
Just as Su Xianyun was anxious about what to say to make amends, the Fenmie Sword that was fighting with the phantom beast suddenly trembled and let out a mournful cry. The shrill sound of the sword was enough to make people panic just by hearing it.
The sound startled Yu Xi so much that his pupils shrank nervously, and the hair on his tail and ears stood up.
Su Xianyun and Jizhi also looked back.
Compared to Jizhi's confused look, Su Xianyun frowned first.
Zhong Xian's natal sword was wailing? So, what was happening to Zhong Xian?
"My brother is in trouble."
Yu Xi murmured.
Su Xianyun could feel that Yu Xi's pressure on his shoulders had obviously increased, and even his whispered voice trembled.
He was afraid that Yu Xi would cry, and was racking his brains to think of how to calm Yu Xi down. Unexpectedly, the next second, he heard Yu Xi raise her voice and say:
"Second brother!"
Jizhi, who was blocking the phantom beast not far away, immediately dropped the phantom beast's corpse in his hand and ran over happily.
"My sister called me?"
Yu Xi nodded, took out the Soul Sealing Pearl from the storage ring, took off the Cundi Ring from her wrist and placed it in Ji Zhi's hand, and said seriously:
"Brother, go back and inject demonic energy into this bead. As soon as you see Mu Xiaoran, throw it at him immediately. Then give the Inch Earth Ring to big brother so that he can escape even if he's injured."
Jizhi didn't understand, but nodded anyway.
Yu Xi paused for a second, then continued, "But brother, you have to promise me that you will leave immediately after giving the things to me, and never confront Mu Xiaoran head-on, okay?"
If even Zhong Xian can't defeat Mu Xiaoran, Ji Zhi would just be seeking his own death if he went there.
So she didn't need Jizhi to deal with Mu Xiaoran, she just had to ensure that Zhong Xian and Jizhi could leave safely.
Ji Zhi didn't understand the meaning of Yu Xi asking him to do this, but he still repeated Yu Xi's words twice in his mind and nodded vigorously:
"I remember! But if I leave, what will happen to my sister?"
"And my senior brother is here to protect me."
Yu Xi gently patted Su Xianyun's shoulder, indicating that he was safe.
Jizhi also wanted to hug his sister, but since his sister asked him for help, he had to do what his sister asked him to do first.
After making sure that Yu Xi was safe, Ji Zhi ran, looking back every few steps. Only when he could no longer see Yu Xi did he start running at full speed.
And Su Xianyun continued to take Yu Xi away from the battle circle.
When he noticed Yu Xi's body trembling slightly due to worry, he lowered his eyes and realized that Yu Xi was more worried about Zhong Xian than he thought. He said with some surprise:
"I thought Junior Sister would cry."
Although he was so worried, his junior sister was calmer than he thought.
Yu Xi shook her head. Curled up in Su Xianyun's arms, she looked like a small, fragile ball of fur.
"If crying could save my brother, I could cry as long as I wanted, but crying now would only cause trouble for you, wouldn't it?"
Su Xianyun didn't say anything else, he just tightened his arms and hugged Yu Xi more carefully.
But, my junior sister is still a child.
She is at the age where she can cry as much as she wants, so why is she so sensible?
How much suffering did she endure when he didn't know?
Su Xianyun ran out of the secret realm, and Jizhi ran into the secret realm.
When Jizhi arrived at where Zhong Xian was, the first thing he felt was the oppression of spiritual power.
Mu Xiaoran's cultivation must have skyrocketed, and the oppressive feeling he felt was even greater than before, making his body several times heavier.
When he saw the figure, he saw Zhong Xian pinching Mu Xiaoran's neck, and the Burning Sword in his hand wanted to stab Mu Xiaoran's chest, but it was blocked by the spiritual energy and could not penetrate.
His back was covered with a thick layer of ghost energy, but he had been stabbed by many swords and his clothes were stained with blood.
"You can't beat me."
Even though Mu Xiaoran was being pinched by the neck, his voice remained calm:
"Since I can start over again, I will never let Xi'er go astray. I can destroy your demon clan once, and I can destroy your demon clan a second time."
As soon as he finished speaking, more swords hung above the bell strings and stabbed at them faster and faster.
At this moment, Zhong Xian had no energy to think about Mu Xiaoran's inexplicable words. His mind was filled with the thought of killing Mu Xiaoran.
He had a premonition that if he didn't kill Mu Xiaoran here, Mu Xiaoran would go looking for trouble with Xiao Xier.
As long as he is here, Mu Xiaoran has no chance!
The spell completely covered Zhong Xian's entire body. The unsealed ghost energy and demonic energy surged out, causing the wounds on Zhong Xian's body to bleed profusely.
He realized that Yu Xi should have left the range of their battle. Just as he was about to attack with all his might, he suddenly heard Ji Zhi's voice:
"Take it! This is from your sister!"
Zhong Xian was paranoid and full of murderous intent, but when he heard Ji Zhi mention Yu Xi, he still raised his head.
As a result, he was hit on the head by the flying Inch Ring, and a bump immediately appeared on his head.
Jizhi!!!
Zhong Xian didn't dare to imagine how dirty his curses would be if he had the energy to do so at that moment.
The Inch Ring hummed, shrinking the ground to an inch, and instantly moved the bell strings outside the ten thousand swords.
Mu Xiaoran was also unable to dodge the Spirit Sealing Pearl that Ji Zhi threw at him.
He shouldn't have let Jizhi throw the thing at him, but when he heard that it was Yu Xi who gave it to him, he was distracted and let the Fenglingzhu fall beside him.
The next moment, the Soul Sealing Pearl emitted a dazzling light, and Mu Xiaoran's spiritual energy was sealed until it completely disappeared. The Soul Sealing Pearl was also shattered because it could not withstand Mu Xiaoran's power, and the spiritual energy that had just disappeared quickly returned.
But this moment was enough for Zhong Xian.
The sword of burning destruction was as powerful as a rainbow, and in the afterimage, it cut off Mu Xiaoran's head with one sword.
