“So... you must pay a price.”

Liu Fugui’s voice was eerie and low, chilling to the bone.

Chu Xianyu’s hand, gripping her sword hilt, began to tremble slightly. The extraordinary azure sword edge flickered, sometimes ringing clear, sometimes trembling nervously.

She murmured in a barely audible voice:

“Chu Xianyu, you can do it...”

But the sword in her hand seemed to ignore her, remaining motionless.

Her earlier battle had already proved that the opponent’s cultivation far exceeded her own. He was at least a Foundation Establishment Cultivator... Moreover, that Demonic Flag he held was extremely strange, a Demon Cultivator of endless tactics.

Were she at her peak, she would fear none, not even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

But right now, things were quite precarious.

Retreat first.

Chu Xianyu somersaulted backwards, slicing off a corner of her robe with her sword, intending to use it as a veil.

But that robed Demon Cultivator didn’t pursue. He gave an eerie smile, shook his banner on the ground, and the Ghostly Mist came whirling from all sides.

“Go, seize this natural Yin body for me.”

“Whoosh!”

At the same time, a black light shot out from the Demon Cultivator’s palm, slicing through the sky like lightning.

“Prick!”

Chu Xianyu in mid-air stalled, the corner of her robe fluttering down. She felt as though a sharp weapon had impaled her. There was no visible wound, but her body stiffened in mid-air, then she fell heavily to the ground.

After she landed, she felt an icy stiffness throughout her body; even moving her fingers was incredibly difficult.

Was it the Soul-devouring Nail?

She didn’t expect that the Demon Cultivator possessed two magic weapons.

Han Ye snatched the floating corner of the dress out of the air, clutched it in his hand and immediately understood what had happened.

“Can you handle it?” He looked at the little fox and asked directly.

“Foundation Establishment Realm. No big problem. That magic weapon might be a bit troublesome. I’ll have to go full out. But if I do that, I’ll be exposed to her. Sir, have you thought about it?”

Throughout, she had been taking on the role of Han Ye’s protector, repaying his karma.

“Take action.”

Han Ye said decisively.

The two planned to ambush the robed Demon Cultivator directly.

But as soon as they stepped in, the Demon Cultivator became aware of them. His gaze was cruel and sharp, sweeping directly to the two outside.

“Seeking death!”

With a jingling from the bell on top of the Demonic Flag, four strands of black air suddenly drilled out.

Transforming into vengeful ghosts, they bared their teeth and claws, aiming to claim Han Ye’s life.

Han Ye was well-prepared, his fists charged with True Qi, his arms roared like a Dragon and Tiger, snapping and cracking loudly.

The fiercely Yang Qi of the Dragon and Tiger Breath burst forth, clashing with the four ghost images.

“Boom!”

The recoil hit him, causing Han Ye to grimace:

“Refreshing! Shaking numbs my hand!”

It had been a long time since he had met anyone who could compete with him in terms of power. This time, what he met wasn’t a person but a ghost.

These ghost beings had undergone special refinement and accumulated considerable power.

“A mere Qi Cultivator, you think you can play hero?” The black-robed elder looked at Han Ye, blocked by the ghosts, and sneered. Eyeing Chu Xianyu laying on the ground, he gloated:

“Very good, two for the price of one. It’s a pity. I prefer women.”

“Han... Han Ye.”

Lying on the ground, Chu Xianyu called out in her heart. Seeing Han Ye rush over for her, she was a bit taken aback, yet she quickly worried.. He was only at the Cup Realm in Qi Cultivation, how could he be a match for this Demon Cultivator?
