Chapter 446: I Must Have Owed You in My Past Life
The winds and clouds between heaven and earth were stirred by Lin Fengmian as countless bolts of lightning gathered at the tip of his sword, tearing through the void.
A ten-zhang-wide black hole suddenly appeared above his head, voraciously devouring the spiritual energy around it like a whale. A sense of impending doom pressed down from above.
Feeling the terrifying energy fluctuations emanating from the compressed void black hole, Luo Xue couldn’t help but feel her heart tighten.
“Lin Fengmian, what are you trying to do?” she asked anxiously.
Lin Fengmian coldly looked down at the chaos in Chaoyue City, resembling a dark demon god from the night sky.
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing,” he replied.
Moments later, Moon Shadow Blade Emperor, appeared in the city. Seeing the devastated state of Chaoyue City, he was nearly driven to fury.
“Young man, you’re looking for…!” he began to shout.
Lin Fengmian coldly interrupted him, “Old thief Moon Shadow, I’ve been waiting for you. Behold, the Annihilation Abyss!”
With a flick of his sword, Zhen Yuan’s ten-zhang-wide black hole was hurled downward, descending toward Chaoyue City.
Compressed to its limit, the black hole expanded rapidly, growing to a hundred zhang in size in an instant and continuing to grow at an alarming rate.
The spiritual energy of the entire city was instantly drained, and a terrifying suction force whipped up a fierce wind that swept through the city.
The citizens of Chaoyue City, panicked and trembling, clung to anything they could find to avoid being swept away.
Countless roof tiles and small objects were caught by the wind and disappeared into nothingness.
Judging by the situation, if the black hole continued to expand, it would swallow the entire city the moment it touched the ground.
“Lin Fengmian, have you lost your mind? There are millions of innocent people in this town!” Luo Xue shouted in disbelief.
Lin Fengmian ignored her, pointing his sword at the stunned Moon Shadow Blade Emperor with a cold smile.
“Old thief Moon Shadow, I’ll be waiting for you outside the city! Don’t you dare chicken out,” he declared.
Without waiting for a response, he turned into a streak of sword light and vanished in an instant.
Moon Shadow Blade Emperor stared at the swirling black hole of void, his scalp tingling with fear. He almost cursed out loud.
Who the hell said that this guy was a saint who cared about the world and people?
This maniac is even crazier than me!
But there was no time to think. With an angry roar, he grabbed his twin blades and shot into the sky.
“Young man, you and I are mortal enemies! Blade Shadow Emperor!” he bellowed.
Under the moonlight, his body rapidly transformed into a giant winged mantis. His two massive spiked blades gleamed with an eerie light under the moonlight.
He couldn’t escape the range of Lin Fengmian’s attack, so why should he let it land?
He might not care about the citizens of the city, but the city housed his civil and military officials, and beneath it lay the Imperial Dragon Vein!
In the distance, Luo Xue let out a long sigh of relief, but then her anger flared up again.
“Lin Fengmian, have you lost your mind? What if he doesn’t take the bait?” she demanded.
Lin Fengmian replied with an air of mystery, “Don’t worry, everything is under control. If it comes to it, I can always retract the attack.”
“An attack of this magnitude, and you can just take it back?” Luo Xue asked skeptically.
“Of course! Do I look like someone who would recklessly endanger lives?” Lin Fengmian said with a laugh.
Afraid that Luo Xue might press further, he quickly changed the subject. “What do you think of my killing two birds with one stone?”
“This move not only exhausts that old fool after his long journey, but also ensures that no one dares to provoke me or the Junyan Empire.”
“After all, a saint who is compassionate isn’t scary, but a saint without any bottom line—now that’s terrifying.”
Luo Xue was momentarily stunned by his seemingly logical explanation, but before she could respond, a furious roar snapped her back to reality.
“Ye Xuefeng, your life is mine!”
As Lin Fengmian had anticipated, the disheveled Moon Shadow Blade Emperor, resembling a vengeful ghost, was hot on his heels.
Lin Fengmian flew at a leisurely pace, a faint smile on his lips. “As expected, the old ghost Moon Shadow is after me.”
Although Chaoyue City’s protective formations had been destroyed and the dragon’s aura had mostly dissipated, who knew what other tricks the ruler of this imperial dynasty might have up his sleeve?
Moreover, the true body of the Heavenly Fiend Sovereign had descended upon Chaoyue City, forcing Lin Fengmian to lure the Moon Shadow Blade Emperor out.
Once this guy left Chaoyue City, wouldn’t he be at Lin Fengmian’s mercy?
Lin Fengmian was completely unfazed, but Luo Xue was visibly worried.
“How can you still smile? The Heavenly Fiend Sovereign will be here in less than fifteen minutes! Shouldn’t we run for our lives?”
At this moment, she felt like she had just boarded a pirate ship. This guy really didn’t care about his own safety – he was way too reckless!
Seeing her look like a little girl caught doing something bad, Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but chuckle.
“No need to run. Don’t worry, I have a way to shake off the Heavenly Fiend Sovereign. For now, help me deal with this Moon Shadow Blade Emperor!”
Luo Xue was skeptical. After all, defeating the Moon Shadow Blade Emperor in under fifteen minutes while also escaping from the Heavenly Fiend Sovereign seemed impossible.
This was the Sovereign’s true body, not a projection!
But she gritted her teeth and decided to trust Lin Fengmian.
“What should we do?”
Lin Fengmian stopped and turned to face the rapidly approaching Moon Shadow Blade Emperor, his killing intent surging. “Let’s finish this quickly. Let’s kill this guy!”
Luo Xue understood his implication and helplessly sighed. “I must have owed you something in my previous life. Fine, let’s do it!”
Lin Fengmian grinned. “Shall we merge our souls?”
It would be difficult for him alone to defeat the Moon Shadow Blade Emperor in such a short time, but if he merged with Luo Xue, their chances would increase significantly.
Luo Xue let out a soft huff and said irritably, “Haven’t you been waiting for this all along? Open your mind!”
Lin Fengmian immediately dropped his act. He had no reason to hide anything from Luo Xue – he wished they could know each other inside and out in reality as well.
Luo Xue sensed his thoughts and scolded him, “You pervert, control your dirty thoughts.”
Lin Fengmian chuckled and opened his mind, allowing his soul to fully merge with Luo Xue’s.
The Twin Fish Pendant began to spin rapidly, and their souls fused together, becoming indistinguishable.
Lin Fengmian let out a soft, contented sigh from the feeling of being intertwined, of his soul and Luo Xue’s soul merging.
Luo Xue, already feeling awkward, nearly lost her composure. “Can you not make those weird noises?”
“Hey, practice makes perfect. We’re practically an old married couple now. Why be shy about it?” Lin Fengmian shamelessly argued.
“Shut up!” Luo Xue retorted, her face flushed.
Soon, the Moon Shadow Blade Emperor caught up with them, gnashing his teeth. “Boy, are you not running anymore?”
“Run? I came here to kill you. Why would I run?”
Lin Fengmian looked at the Moon Shadow Blade Emperor as if he was already dead and immediately activated his Fiendgod Domain.
Black mist churned, and a hundred-zhang-tall Eight Desolations Fiendgod emerged from the fog, its voice cold and menacing. “Are you ready to die?”
Insulted by such contempt, the Moon Shadow Blade Emperor laughed in anger.
Although Ye Xuefeng’s battle record was impressive, he refused to believe that he couldn’t hold out for even fifteen minutes.
As long as he could delay for a quarter of an hour, the Heavenly Fiend Sovereign would arrive in his true form and crush this detestable brat!
With a roar, he shouted, “Moonlight illuminates the shadows, Blade Shadow Emperor!”
A bright moon appeared in the sky, its pure light enveloping both Lin Fengmian and Moon Shadow Blade Emperor.
Moon Shadow Blade Emperor manifested his mantis avatar, its compound eyes seemingly able to see through Lin Fengmian’s every move.
“Die!”
With a flap of his translucent wings, he transformed into a blur and lunged at Lin Fengmian, his massive blade arms slicing through the void like scythes of death.
