Chapter 891: Chapter 892: The Appearance of the Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse
The terrifying strength displayed by Ye Wudao completely stunned the Heavenly Corpse Sect!
The formidable Mountain Protection Array, which could withstand attacks from Unity Realm Stage cultivators,
was shattered in just three strikes by his blade!
"Vice Sect Master, what do we do now?"
"Should we gather the disciples and engage this Ye fellow in a fight to the death?" A group of Heavenly Corpse Sect elders surrounded Chen Guan, pressing him for a decision.
Chen Guan immediately erupted in frustration: "Do what? Fight to the death, my ass! Didn’t you see that freakish strength of Ye Wudao just now? Three chops and our Mountain Protection Array went down like a vegetable under a peeler! You think you’re tough? Go ahead, then! I’m outta here—better to save my own neck first!"
The Heavenly Corpse Sect members stared at one another, catching on quickly!
"Exactly! Why the hell are we fighting?"
"Even the Vice Sect Master is fleeing!"
"Let’s run too!"
All the Heavenly Corpse Sect powerhouses scattered in panic, and the sect’s disciples, seeing this spectacle, fled like birds and beasts, utterly routed!
As the Mountain Protection Array crumbled and the elders and disciples either fled or vanished,
the Heavenly Corpse Sect was, for all intents and purposes, already destroyed in name and function!
However, Ye Wudao had no intention of letting them off!
The old saying goes: "If you don’t cut the weeds at the root, they will sprout again with the spring breeze!"
What’s more, the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s hands were stained with the blood of Kunlun!
Ye Wudao gripped the hilt of his blade, his pupils flashing with a chilling gleam, a cold smirk curling at his lips: "Run? None of you will escape!"
With a single slash, Ye Wudao unleashed a combination of murderous intent and lightning, forming a dark red bolt of electricity!
"Thunder Annihilation Thousand Split!"
BOOM!
KABOOM!
The entire Heavenly Corpse Sect erupted in explosions, the Thunder Annihilation Thousand Split splintering into countless shards, sweeping through and indiscriminately striking all the fleeing sect members!
"No, I don’t want to die!"
"No, please, no!"
The Heavenly Corpse Sect disciples and elders alike were struck by the Thunder Annihilation Thousand Split, rendered utterly defenseless and killed instantaneously!
One single assault!
Nearly wiped out over half the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s disciples!
"God, has this Ye guy gone insane?"
"He wants to exterminate every last one of us in the Heavenly Corpse Sect!"
"Vice Sect Master, what should we do now?" A few of the Heavenly Corpse Sect elders turned to Chen Guan, their faces pale with terror.
Chen Guan glanced around at the carnage, the countless dead bodies, his own face ashen as he feebly replied: "There’s no escaping now. Our only option is to retreat to the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s main hall and issue an emergency plea to the Sect Master, hoping for rescue!"
"Alright!" Several Heavenly Corpse Sect powerhouses scrambled to fly toward the sect’s main hall!
"Look! Vice Sect Master and the elders have retreated to the main hall!"
"Let’s go there too!"
More than a thousand remaining survivors of the Heavenly Corpse Sect rushed toward the sect’s main hall as if fleeing a calamity!
"Perfect, save me the trouble of hunting you all down one by one!" A faint smirk appeared on Ye Wudao’s lips as he arrived overhead at the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s main hall, his overwhelming killing intent manifesting without restraint!
"Y-Young Lord Ye! Let’s talk this out—please don’t annihilate the entire Heavenly Corpse Sect! Regarding the Kunlun affair, we express our deepest regret. W-We’re willing to pay five hundred thousand Spirit Crystals as compensation!" Chen Guan stammered, his voice trembling.
*Hiss!*
Five hundred thousand Spirit Crystals!
Hearing this astronomical figure, the disciples hiding inside the main hall began to tremble uncontrollably!
This was equivalent to the entire fortune of a pseudo-Unity Realm master!
It also represented decades of accumulation by the Heavenly Corpse Sect!
"Young Lord Ye, five hundred thousand Spirit Crystals is no small amount! Even Unity Realm masters would wince at giving out such a fortune! As long as you’re willing to cease hostilities today, I guarantee not a single cent will be withheld!" Chen Guan continued to plead.
Though the price of five hundred thousand Spirit Crystals was steep,
if it could extinguish Ye Wudao’s wrath and make him leave,
it would save the foundation of the Heavenly Corpse Sect and everyone’s lives for now!
There’d still be a chance to settle accounts later!
However, how could Chen Guan’s pitiful schemes escape Ye Wudao’s discerning gaze?
"Haha, if I destroy you all, wouldn’t the five hundred thousand Spirit Crystals belong to me anyway? Besides, I’d sleep much better that way!" Ye Wudao sneered coldly.
"You!"
Chen Guan’s face turned deathly pale!
Not bothering with further words, Ye Wudao raised his blade, slashing violently at the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s main hall!
BOOM!
A loud explosion echoed as the main hall, though impressively sturdy, had a corner shattered!
Ye Wudao swung his blade again and again!
BOOM!
KABOOM!
Soon enough, the entire Heavenly Corpse Sect’s main hall was reduced to rubble, engulfed in raging flames!
Meanwhile.
Several hundred miles away from the Heavenly Corpse Sect.
"Haha, to share drinks with my good friend from the Heavenly Corpse Sect is a truly joyous occasion!" A thin, middle-aged man threw an arm around the Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse’s shoulder, laughing heartily.
If someone familiar saw this scene, they’d surely be shocked!
The man draping his arm around the Old Demon’s shoulder was none other than the infamous second-in-command of Evil Person Island—the Thousand-Change Demon Monarch!
"To be able to meet the brothers of Evil Person Island and even have the honor of paying my respects to Senior Qiu Potian today—this is the luck of a lifetime!" The Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse replied humbly.
"From now on, Heavenly Corpse brother, we’re all family!"
"Even the big boss thinks very highly of you!" Several other Evil Person Island powerhouses chimed in with laughter.
The Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse nodded and turned to the Thousand-Change Demon Monarch. "Second Brother, we’re almost at the Heavenly Corpse Sect. Please, allow me to take my leave here. To these brothers, let’s arrange a meeting another day!"
"Very well, next time then, Heavenly Corpse brother!" said the Thousand-Change Demon Monarch.
But just as he spoke, he paused, noticing something glowing in the distance. "Hmm? What’s with that fire over there?" he asked curiously.
"I think I even see someone attacking the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s main hall with a blade!" one of the Evil Person Island powerhouses exclaimed in shock.
The Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse raised his head. When he took in the scene, his pupils contracted sharply. "That... that area looks like the Heavenly Corpse Sect!"
"What!?"
Everyone froze in place for a moment.
"Second Brother, everyone, I must hurry back to check!" The Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse said anxiously, giving only a quick farewell before rushing toward the sect.
The Thousand-Change Demon Monarch immediately called out, "Let’s follow and have a look as well!"
In the blink of an eye, the group arrived outside the Heavenly Corpse Sect!
What they saw was a sect in ruins, reduced to rubble and engulfed in flames, as if a bloody war had swept through it!
"My... my Heavenly Corpse Sect!" The Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse trembled violently, unable to believe his eyes!
"Damn it, who dared to attack the Heavenly Corpse Sect while my brother was away!?" The Thousand-Change Demon Monarch roared in fury.
"Look! Over there! Someone is slashing at the main hall with a blade!" At that moment, one of the keen-eyed experts from Evil Person Island pointed forward.
Above the Heavenly Corpse Sect’s main hall!
A young man relentlessly swung his blade, the main hall engulfed in raging flames!
"Hurry up and get out!" Ye Wudao bellowed angrily.
Under his command, Chen Guan and the remaining sect experts crawled out one by one, falling to their knees before Ye Wudao, groveling for their lives.
"Young Master Ye, please don’t kill us!"
"Lord Ye, we surrender!"
The Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse, upon seeing this scene, was as if struck by lightning. His pupils contracted sharply, and he glared at Ye Wudao with seething rage. "Scoundrel, stop this at once!"
All the cowering Heavenly Corpse Sect members, hearing that all-too-familiar voice, cheered in relief!
"Sect Master!"
"The Sect Master has returned!"
"Sect Master, please give us justice! While you were away, this man massacred innocents, destroyed our great hall, and sought to exterminate us all!" Chen Guan quickly wailed, tears and snot streaming down his face as he sobbed.
"What!?"
The Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse clenched his teeth, his eyes locked onto Ye Wudao’s back. "Who are you? What grudge do you have against my Heavenly Corpse Sect?"
"Haha, Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse, have you already forgotten? I, Ye, am merely returning karma with karma." Ye Wudao said with a sly smile, turning slowly to reveal his strikingly handsome face, slender build, and piercing gaze.
"You... You’re Ye... Ye Wudao!!" The Old Demon of Heavenly Corpse gasped, his pupils shrinking as disbelief filled his face!
