Boom! Boom! Boom!

Qi Ming and the others could still hear waves of rumbling sounds. When Mu Qing and the three outer sect elders fought, they released furious roars. All types of light exploded in the air.

“Blood Moon Great Art!”

Buzz!

Suddenly, at this moment, Mu Qing seemed to be forced into a corner by the three outer sect elders. After letting out a furious roar, even her voice became sharp. A dazzling blood-colored fog spread out.

“That is…”

Qi Ming and the others looked over.

Buzz! Buzz!

The blood-colored fog gradually rose. A blood-colored crescent moon actually rose. An extremely terrifying aura spread out, making Qi Ming and the others completely unable to breathe.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Terrifying!

It was extremely terrifying!

He was definitely not at the Foundation Establishment realm.

“This old thing…”

Qi Ming was shocked. “He actually hid it so deeply.”

However, something even stranger happened.

Mu Qing raised his right hand, an extremely demonic smile appearing on his old face. He stretched out his right middle finger, his nails long and thin, like a female ghost.

Then…

The long nails seemed to have pierced through the skin on his forehead and slowly cut open this layer of human skin from top to bottom. This scene was extremely terrifying.

“This… this…”

Everyone was shocked.

After shedding a layer of human skin, he revealed his true appearance under the ‘human skin’.

It was a peerless young woman with an oval face, cherry lips, a tall nose, and a graceful figure. Her blood red hair fluttered, and she seemed to be extremely gorgeous.

Her crystal-like blood-colored eyes were crystal clear and had a different kind of charm. When he observed carefully, there was a blood-colored lotus flower in her pupils.

“It’s… it’s her…”

Qi Ming felt a chill run from his feet to the top of his head. He did not expect that Mu Qing was actually Daoist White Bones, the demoness of the Myriad Demon Cave.

In fact, Daoist White Bones and Mu Qing were only disguises of this demoness.

“Blood Lotus Demoness.”

One of the outer sect elders shouted in a deep voice, “How dare you! How dare you hide in the Green Cloud Peak until now? I’ll make you disappear today.”

“Attack!”

“Green Cloud Tripartite Formation.”

As soon as they finished speaking.

The three outer sect elders jointly set up a formation and attacked the Blood Lotus Demoness. The array formation was very powerful, but she was even stronger.

“The blood moon in the sky, a thousand years of the blood lotus, in my absence there is life.”

Boom! Boom!

The Blood Lotus Demoness let out a long roar as her terrifying combat strength erupted. A torrential blood light surged as the phenomenon of the blood moon and blood lotus soared into the sky.

Then, the Green Cloud Tripartite Formation directly exploded.

“Ah!!!”

The three outer sect elders screamed and spat out blood as their bodies flew out.

“This… this…”

“The three outer sect elders combined are actually not her match.”

“Gasp…”

“Too powerful.”

Everyone exclaimed.

“So strong.”

Qi Ming was also very shocked.

“Hehe.”

The Blood Lotus Demoness smiled disdainfully. “This is your strength? You’re too weak. You want me to be annihilated? I won’t play with you anymore.”

After saying that, the Blood Lotus Demoness was about to escape.

“Since you’re here, don’t leave.”

At this moment, a gentle voice sounded from the horizon. It was extremely pleasant to listen to, just like the sound of flowing water in the mountains. It was clear and pleasant to the ear, making one wonder what kind of immortal appearance the owner of this voice was.

“White Fire Phoenix, come.”

Buzz!

Pure white flames appeared out of nowhere. Even the space was burned and twisted, turning into a pure white phoenix. It spread its wings and flew high, emitting grand pressure.

…

The pure white phoenix flapped its wings and charged towards the Blood Lotus Demoness.

“You!!!”

The Blood Lotus Demoness was extremely shocked. She unleashed all her strength, but the Blood Moon and Blood Lotus were completely burned by the pure white fire phoenix.

There was a huge difference.

“Ah!!!” The Blood Lotus Demoness screamed.

“This…” Everyone was shocked.

One had to know, the powerful Blood Lotus Demoness just now had been easily defeated by the combined forces of the three outer sect elders. Now, she was actually crushed by a pure white fire phoenix formed by a spell technique.

Seeing this kind of impact, everyone was indeed shocked.

The pure white phoenix dissipated.

The Blood Lotus Demoness fell to the ground. She was heavily injured. Just one strike had caused this Blood Lotus Demoness to be in a state of near death and lose the ability to resist.

Buzz!

The owner of the voice had appeared.

However…

His entire body was surrounded by white clouds and mist. Qi Ming could not see Fairy Feng Xi’s appearance at all. Even her figure seemed extremely blurry.

It was filled with mystery.

“Greetings, Fairy Feng Xi.”

The three outer sect elders knelt on the ground and bowed. Their tone was extremely respectful, and there was even a fanatical feeling. It could be seen that Fairy Feng Xi’s background was extremely extraordinary.

“Yes.”

Fairy Feng Xi nodded. She looked down from above at the heavily injured and dying Blood Lotus Demoness. Her gaze was calm, without any fluctuation, “Blood Lotus Demoness cultivates one of the Thirteen Demon Dao of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires of the Myriad Demon Cave, the Demon Dao of Love.”

“Hehe.”

The Blood Lotus Demoness raised her head without the slightest fear. Instead, she giggled and said, “I didn’t expect that I would actually cause you, Fairy Feng Xi, to personally take action.”

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Immediately after, three more figures appeared.

Moreover…

These three figures were similarly enveloped in a layer of mist, and it was utterly impossible to see them clearly. However, they revealed a trace of vital qi, and they were completely existences on the same level as Fairy Feng Xi.

“Fairy Feng Xi, I didn’t expect you to make a move.”

“This Blood Lotus Demoness indeed deserves death.”

“Don’t kill her first. We can keep her for interrogation.”

The three figures said.

“You’re too late. She’s dead for sure.”

However, Fairy Feng Xi said, “The pure white phoenix flames have already entered her body. Even if she reached the Nascent Soul realm, she won’t be able to escape. Moreover, she’s not in the Nascent Soul realm.”

“It’s about time.”

Fairy Feng Xi said.

“Ah!!!”

Indeed, the Blood Lotus Demoness suddenly let out a miserable cry. Pure white flames burned within her body and instantly enveloped her entire body.

Then, under everyone’s gazes, the Blood Lotus Demoness was forcefully burned to ashes.

Her ashes scattered with the wind.

“This…”

“As expected of Fairy Feng Xi.”

“She has actually cultivated the pure white phoenix flames to such an extent.”

The other three looked at each other in shock.

Thus…

The matter was resolved just like that.

Qi Ming and the others had watched a battle between experts and witnessed the powerful strength of the higher-ups of the Green Cloud Peak. It was indeed very terrifying and could overturn mountains and overturn seas.

It was terrifying.

“There will be a new head elder taking over tomorrow. You can all go back.”

One of the outer sect elders said a few words to Qi Ming and the others before leaving. As for Fairy Feng Xi and the others, they had long disappeared.

As for what would happen next, Qi Ming did not know either.

However, Qi Ming felt a little uneasy.

Honestly, the Blood Lotus Demoness died too quickly, and it felt unreal. However, the Blood Lotus Demoness had died at the hands of Fairy Feng Xi. If something was wrong, could it be that there was a problem with Fairy Feng Xi?

That should be impossible.

“Why am I thinking about this?”

Qi Ming shook his head. “Now that Mu Qing is gone, I’ll have an easier time. All I need to do now is to cultivate steadily.”

Next, Qi Ming took the receipt and took 1,500 low-grade spirit stones from Pang San. He then sold the low-grade Qi Refinement realm talisman treasure and low-grade Qi Refinement realm spell techniques he obtained this time to Pang San, only managing to sell 150 low-grade spirit stones.

This way…

The number of low-grade spirit stones in Qi Ming’s hands reached 1,750.

“Junior Brother Qi.”

Pang San smiled and said, “Senior Brother, I heard that a few days ago, First Elder Mu Qing talked to you in private alone. You’ll probably be interrogated next.”

“What does it have to do with me?”

Qi Ming said angrily, “I’m just an ordinary servant disciple. I don’t know anything and have never come into contact with anything. Don’t talk nonsense, alright?”

“Perhaps.”

Pang San shrugged, put away the betting chip, and turned around to leave, “Right, Junior Brother Qi, as your senior brother, I have to remind you. If you don’t want to be easily manipulated, you have to show sufficient value. Otherwise, any one of you can take the blame.”

“What do you mean?” Qi Ming asked.

“What do I mean? You need to find a backer. Is there a need to ask? I think your talent is not bad so I want to make a friend, which is why I told you this.”

Pang San waved his hand, “I’m leaving.”

Qi Ming watched Pang San leave in silence as he thought to himself, “Find a backer.”
