Chapter 29: Two Great Demons of the Void Spirit Realm
Chapter 29: Two Great Demons of the Void Spirit Realm
"Who dares to cause trouble in Moonfall City!"
With a deafening boom like a clap of thunder, the air around them rippled violently. More than a dozen figures with powerful auras appeared in quick succession. Everyone who arrived was at the Divine Void Realm.
"Who killed my son?"
Yin Hua glared at his son, who had been reduced to a desiccated corpse, and let out a furious roar, his eyes bloodshot.
"It was me."
Chen Pingan took two steps forward, twirling his Blood-Devouring Magic Sword with a calm, faint smile on his face.
"I will help you."
The beauty in the colorful flowing dress turned slightly and whispered.
Chen Pingan nodded with a smile: "Thank you for your help, beauty, but since this matter started because of me, let me handle it myself!"
Hearing Chen Pingan call her "beauty," a faint blush crept onto the woman’s cheeks, and a look of indescribable shyness flickered across her face.
"Damn it! A brat in the Golden Body Realm like you, how could you possibly have killed my son?"
Seeing Chen Pingan and the beauty whispering to each other, Yin Hua was overcome with embarrassment and rage. He reached out and lunged toward Chen Pingan.
Suddenly, an invisible barrier materialized in the void.
Boom!
Yin Hua’s massive hand struck the barrier and was sent recoiling backward.
"You!"
Yin Hua looked at the beauty in the colorful dress in shock. With just a gentle wave of her hand, she had deflected his attack. Her cultivation was unfathomable.
Withdrawing his trembling hand, he cast a wary glance at her, his lips moving slightly as he sent out a secret sound transmission. He then turned around and, along with all his men, suddenly vanished.
"What is going on?"
"The Deputy City Lord is acting strange today. His son is dead—shouldn't he be seeking revenge?"
"Wait, who is this beauty in the colorful dress? How did she manage to make the Deputy City Lord so afraid?"
The pedestrians on the street chattered in confusion.
Boom!
The vast Moonfall City suddenly shuddered. Then, beams of light surged up from all directions, forming a translucent canopy in the sky.
"They've activated the formation!"
Chen Pingan’s expression shifted slightly. He quickly spoke to the beauty: "Come closer to me! They are about to activate the Moonfall City formation to attack you!"
"It is of no consequence."
The beauty in the colorful dress chuckled softly, suddenly rising into the air to face the grand array, her hand raised to strike.
At the same moment, beams of light descended from the formation like meteors, smashing fiercely toward her.
Boom, boom, boom...
The two forces collided, creating an earth-shattering roar.
Despite the powerful onslaught of the formation, the beauty remained unscathed, leaving the onlookers stunned.
Deep beneath Moonfall City, inside the control hub of the formation, Yin Hua watched the scene with a grim, increasingly savage expression. "Kill her!" he roared frantically.
"Yin Hua!"
A man in white robes standing beside him gestured with his hands clasped behind his back, frowning: "This woman’s aura is obscure. Her strength far exceeds that of a peak tenth-level Divine Void Realm cultivator, and there is a faint trace of demonic energy radiating from her. Could she be a reclusive Great Demon?"
"So what if she is a Great Demon? Here in Moonfall City, even a Void Spirit Realm expert would surely meet their doom!"
Yin Hua sneered. He waved his hands repeatedly, and dozens of formation masters began casting incantations simultaneously, intensifying the power of the Moonfall City array.
"Damn it, who dares to lay a hand on my woman?"
A thunderous voice echoed in the sky.
A burly man in green robes descended from the heavens, slamming his fist against the formation.
Boom!
The array trembled violently, flickering between light and shadow. Inside the underground hub, the formation masters spat out blood in unison.
"This is a Void Spirit Realm Great Demon!"
The man in white’s pupils contracted, and his arms began to tremble.
Before he could react, another powerful aura of a Void Spirit Realm Great Demon erupted from within the array.
The beauty in the colorful dress now glowed with a dreamlike, seven-colored light. As her jade hands moved gracefully, streams of iridescent light struck the array. With a deafening crash, the formation shook even more violently.
"How is this possible?"
Yin Hua’s eyes widened, his sanity on the verge of collapse. In a single instant, two Void Spirit Realm Great Demons had appeared.
The Void Spirit Realm—they were legendary figures across the entire You Province, usually living in seclusion, rarely seen by anyone in their entire lifetime. Their city’s formation might be able to trap one such demon, but it could never hold two.
Boom!
All the formation masters were struck by the backlash of the array and fell unconscious. With the two demons working from the inside and out, the Moonfall City formation shattered.
The man in white and Yin Hua stood as pale as death, their bodies trembling as if waiting for their end.
Standing on the street, Chen Pingan watched the unfolding events with keen interest.
"Brother Chong, so this is where you are."
A red-clad figure appeared beside him. Hong Yun pointed toward the sky, pleasantly surprised: "That woman is releasing the aura of a Phantom Butterfly."
"A Phantom Butterfly?"
Hearing this, a smile graced Chen Pingan’s face. So, this little butterfly had actually broken through to the Void Spirit Realm and successfully taken human form.
"It seems this little butterfly recognizes me; otherwise, why would she have stepped in to help..." Chen Pingan stroked his chin, lost in thought.
Seeing the formation broken, the green-robed man approached with a grin and said excitedly: "Beauty, allow me to introduce myself. I am Young Master Poison Dragon."
"Thank you for your assistance, Fellow Daoist," the beauty bowed in gratitude.
If this stranger had not helped, she would have had to use her full strength to break the array. Once her internal poison flared up, Moonfall City would have been devastated, and everyone would have perished.
"Haha, you are welcome."
Young Master Poison Dragon stared at her lithe, colorful figure with burning eyes. Feeling his body slipping out of his control, he flushed, his gaze turning lecherous as he drifted closer. The beauty quickly retreated.
"Beautiful lady, why don't we become cultivation partners?" Young Master Poison Dragon smirked.
"Young Master Poison Dragon, please watch your tongue!"
The beauty’s expression turned cold, a layer of frost settling over her features.
"Beauty, am I not worthy of you with my level of strength?" Young Master Poison Dragon laughed arrogantly.
Ignoring him, the beauty glanced down at the ground for a moment before turning and flying toward the southeast. The Poison Dragon was persistent; a fierce battle was likely inevitable, and if two Void Spirit Realm demonic beasts fought, the destruction to Moonfall City would be catastrophic.
"Beauty, wait for me!"
Panicking, the Poison Dragon chased after her. In the blink of an eye, both had vanished.
A few breaths later, earth-shattering roars echoed from the depths of Moonfall Mountain. The powerful sound waves were deafening, and the ground of Moonfall City shook, causing many to cover their ears in terror.
"This is terrifying. I've lived for so many years and never seen even one Void Spirit Realm Great Demon!" someone exclaimed in shock.
"Hong Yun, the Phantom Butterfly has appeared. Let’s go too," Chen Pingan said with a smile.
Hong Yun looked troubled, worrying: "Brother Chong, the battle between two Void Spirit Realm beasts will be world-shaking and far-reaching. We shouldn't go."
Chen Pingan shook his head.
"I caught that little butterfly in the valley years ago; she was my pet, after all. I can't just let that Poison Dragon bully her..."
As he spoke, he instantly activated the only Divine Void Realm experience card in his inventory.
