Chapter 1460: The End (3)
Song Yan turned on her feet and dodged the attack that was aimed at her. She looked at the man behind her, with a calm expression while the man stared back at her agitatedly.
"Who are you?" Pillar One asked with a furious expression. He couldn't understand how this woman could kill all the pillars alone.
Now only he and Li Xiuying were left and Pillar One had no idea why this woman was chasing after them like her life depended on it.
They have indeed met with enemies but this was the first time he had met with someone so formidable.
"Who do you think I am?" Song Yan questioned back with a smile on her face. She summoned her scythe and rushed at the man with her agile feet. "I am your death."
Pillar One's eyes widened, he knew that this woman would not answer his question. Thus, he dropped all other thoughts and rushed in the direction of where Song Yan was coming his way.
He threw a bunch of exploding talismans at Song Yan.
When Song Yan saw the man hurl talismans at her, she narrowed her eyes and dodged. She took three steps back and flew back in the air before throwing a bunch of talismans.
She had to admit that the man was skilled as all the talismans that he threw at her were actually level-A grades!
No wonder he was ranked number one among the rest of the pillars.
But the stronger he was, the more sins he must have committed to get to the position where he was standing.
Song Yan clapped her hand and then summoned her familiar, Ceribi.
The sound of growls erupted in the air as Ceribi appeared. With its three heads, he glared at the man who had stopped throwing talismans and retreated.
'A familiar? This woman can summon a familiar?' Pillar One stared at Ceribi with widened eyes. He looked at Song Yan who was standing behind the gigantic familiar and felt a surge of panic.
For some reason, he had a feeling that he might not make out alive.
Pillar One gritted his teeth and summoned his own familiar. It was a giant Ghost Knight.
But for Ceribi whose cultivation was now higher due to Song Yan's constant cultivation, the Ghost Knight was nothing but a giant bag of bones.
Ceribi growled and tackled the Ghost Knight leaving Pillar One in shock as he realized that even with his high cultivation he could not deal with this woman and her cultivation.
"You shouldn't look away in a fight," he heard a chilling voice speak to him and as Pillar One turned around he saw Song Yan swinging the scythe at him.
"Ahhhh!" The man screamed in pain as the heavenly scythe which had reaped the souls of many, cut through his flesh like a hot knife cutting down a chunk of butter.
Pillar One looked down at his sizzling skin. He gritted his teeth and looked at Song Yan, "I am going to kill you for this."
"Oh that's terrifying," Song Yan chuckled lightly as she threw her scythe in the air.
The man thought that she was giving up on the fight but that was until he saw the scythe change its form and turn into a chain scythe.
Her words attracted the attention of Song Yan who narrowed her eyes before replying, "I can break it. But why are you asking me that?"
Li Xiuying smiled at Song Yan's words. No wonder Duan He was so scared of this woman, she could even break Three Strings Array.
This was a high-level array which was used by dark arts practitioners. Take three strings that were soaked in the blood of a three-week-old corpse and then drill these three strings inside the head, heart and abdomen of the person they wanted to curse.
Once these strings were in place not only would the person start getting sick by the day, his or her death would be in the hands of the dark art practitioner who performed the ritual.
Li Xiuying never wanted to become a dark arts practitioner but Duan He noticed her high
spiritual energy and kidnapped her sister before performing the ritual and setting up the Three Strings Array.
With the life of her sister who was the only family left of her in this world, Li Xiuying had no choice but to do Duan He's bidding.
That woman promised that she would break the array once Li Xiuying became her servant but
she never did.
Other than handing some pills every month which would ensure her sister's life would not end abruptly, Duan He never made a move.
"You can't kill Duan He until I am alive," Li Xiuying said to Song Yan as she took out a high- grade Hell's Fire talisman. She looked at Song Yan who had summoned her own talisman and was waiting for her to make a move.
Li Xiuying smiled at Song Yan before throwing a scroll down on the ground, which she took out from the space ring that was given to her.
She then said, "My sister she is admitted to the City Hospital, ward number 405. Please remember to break the array placed on her body."
"What do you——"
Song Yan began but the woman's actions were faster, she placed the talisman on her body and Song Yan's eyes widened when she saw Li Xiuying set herself on fire.
She never thought that one of the pillars would actually prefer to die without fighting. Her eyes fell on the scroll that the woman threw on the ground and unfurled it.
Inside the scroll was all the information that she needed to infiltrate the sect where Duan He
was hiding at the moment.
Song Yan's pupils constricted and she raised her head to look at the roaring flames.
It seemed like not everyone was working for Duan He out of loyalty.
"Don't worry," she said to the woman even if she could no longer hear her. "I will make sure
to save your sister once I am done killing Duan He."
A gust of warm breeze fluttered past her as Song Yan turned her back on the roaring flames.
She took out a teleportation talisman and stuck it to her body.
It was time for the final battle.
