My Name Is Tang Ling'er
Just as Lu Changsheng and his group were about to approach the Star Tower, the Demon General caught up from behind, conjuring a Great Demon claw that Lu Changsheng at Lu Changsheng, intending to kill them before they reached the island where the Star Tower was located.
Lu Changsheng and the others hurriedly took cover.
"This Demon Cultivator is extremely high; even I am no match for him. Xiaoyao, you are destined for the Star Tower. I will hold this demon off while you go to the Star Tower alone. You need not worry about danger; I have divined for you, and when you encounter danger, a benefactor will come to your aid."
"But Master..."
"Hurry up."
"Your disciple obeys."
With a determined look, Chen Xiaoyao had no choice but to separate from Lu Changsheng and the others, and flew alone towards the Star Tower.
Lu Changsheng, Lin Qingzhi, Lu Qinglian, and Mo Huazhi confronted the arriving Demon Generals.
"Are you from Mount Shu? If you were the Mount Shu Sect Master or the Sword Saint who injured the Demon Lord, perhaps I would have retreated. Unfortunately, you are not, and you are doomed."
The Demon General transformed into a burly man, coldly surveying Lu Changsheng and his disciples.
With Great Demon generals under the Demon Lord whose cultivation was close to that of the Six Great Sect Masters, killing Lu Changsheng would not be difficult for him.
Lu Changsheng sensed two auras approaching the Star Tower, so he poured his True Qi into the Inch-to-End-of-the-World Talisman.
The next instant, Lu Changsheng and his three disciples vanished into thin air.
"Spatial teleportation?!"
"Impossible! With his cultivation level, how could he possibly master the Space Principle!"
"I shouldn't scare myself; it's probably just the effect of the Talisman."
The Demon General came to his senses and realized that Lu Changsheng had only managed to escape instantly by using Spatial Talisman.
"With their cultivation level, even if they escape, they won't pose a threat to me in the future. I should focus on obtaining the treasures inside the Star Tower as soon as possible."
The Demon General stormed into the island where the Star Tower was located, and the Sun-Moon Sect, who guarded the Star Tower, tried to stop him, but were killed by the Demon General with a single claw.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, the Sun-Moon Sect's palace was blasted apart by the Demon General!
In the Immortal Ruins, the Demon General's cultivation level was practically a matter of Dimensionality-Reduction Strike.
"Boy, don't even think about taking the treasures from the Star Tower."
The Demon General discovered that Chen Xiaoyao was approaching the Star Tower on his sword. He slightly circulated his True Qi, and a monstrous Demon Qi surged forth.
The next moment, the Demon General appeared in front of Chen Xiaoyao.
"What bad luck!"
Chen Xiaoyao knew that with his current cultivation level, he couldn't escape the Demon General's pursuit, so he stopped.
Just then, two figures flying on swords arrived, slightly surprised to see the Demon General and Chen Xiaoyao facing off.
Chen Xiaoyao looked at the two of them; they were Human Race cultivators.
A beautiful young woman with jet-black hair tied into twin ponytails with a light blue ribbon, wearing Indigo Immortal Skirt and a Red Holy Spirit Cloak, possessed a captivating beauty and clear, watery eyes. She was slightly younger than Chen Xiaoyao.
The other woman was dressed in blue, her face veiled, making it impossible to tell her age.
"Why are there two more people?"
Demon General was about to kill Chen Xiaoyao, he noticed the two uninvited guests and frowned slightly.
The young woman's cultivation was only at the early stage of the Dao Palace Realm, nothing to worry about.
What truly troubled the Demon General was the woman veiled in light gauze, whose cultivation level was impossible to discern.
The Green-Robed Woman, veiled in light gauze, looked more like a bodyguard for a young woman.
"Ladies, this Dao cultivation highly skilled. You should leave immediately. I will hold him off."
Chen Xiaoyao drew his Houtian Spirit Treasure, the Soft-Finger Sword Long Sword, and pointed it at the Demon General.
Chen Xiaoyao had not forgotten that at the Mount Shu Apprentice-Selection Ceremony thirteen years ago, he had sworn to his master Lu Changsheng that he would henceforth uphold justice, punish evil and promote good, and become a great hero.
With two frail women behind him and Great Demon before him, how could he possibly back down from battle!
"Pfft." Unexpectedly, the young woman couldn't help but laugh out loud, her laughter clear and melodious. "Aunt Zhu, this guy's cultivation level is clearly not high, yet he says he wants to protect us. Isn't that funny?"
Chen Xiaoyao scratched his head sheepishly. "My cultivation is indeed not high, and my aptitude is quite ordinary. If I hadn't met my master, I might have remained a mere mortal in Heyang City for my entire life."
The young woman smiled again and said, "With your level of cultivation, how can you possibly hold off this demon?"
"This... Although what I did was in vain, even if my cultivation is inferior to theirs, I must still have a heart devoted to slaying demons and eliminating evil. Alas, if only I, Shen Chen Xiaoyao, could have more time, I Chen Xiaoyao diligently cultivated with my master, and one day I would have become a peerless hero among men."
Chen Xiaoyao was ridiculed by the young woman, but he didn't take it to heart and remained steadfast in his Daoist beliefs.
"Have you two finished talking?"
If the Demon General hadn't been wary of the Green-Robed Woman veiled by the light gauze, he would have already killed Chen Xiaoyao and the young woman who had started chatting.
By the way,... [version].
Chen Xiaoyao's expression gradually became serious. Even his master was no match for the Demon General, and he couldn't even withstand a single move from the Demon General.
"You're quite an interesting person. Aunt Zhu, we should lend a helping hand when we see injustice on the road."
The young woman looked at the Green-Robed Woman.
"Um."
The Green-Robed Woman made Sword Art, and the Immortal Sword behind her was drawn.
A terrifying pressure that enveloped the heavens and the earth descended, causing the entire Floating Island to tremble violently.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the Immortal Ruins frantically converged towards this immortal Immortal Sword, forming a huge vortex with a radius of hundreds of miles, and the pillar of light formed by the Sword Qi pierced straight into the sky.
The Green-Robed Woman was also gaining momentum rapidly, becoming on par with the Demon General.
The Demon General's face turned pale. "Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact!"
"Cut."
The Green-Robed Woman activated her Immortal Artifact and slashed at the Demon General.
"I must not be killed!"
The Demon General unleashed a torrent of Demon Qi, desperately trying to block the immortal Immortal Sword.
The Green-Robed Woman was at a similar level to him, but the Immortal Sword she used was Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact!
"I never expected that so many powerful Demon Race would appear in the Desolate Province."
The Green-Robed Woman frowned, channeled more True Qi, and continued to slash with her Immortal Sword.
"Ah!
The Demon General was wounded by the Immortal Sword, letting out a heart-wrenching scream.
In the end, the Demon General used Secret Art, transforming into a wisp of black mist and fleeing towards the entrance of the Immortal Ruins just as he was about to be killed by the Immortal Sword.
He knew he was no match for the Green-Robed Woman who possessed Middle-Grade Immortal Sword.
Staying here will not only prevent you from obtaining the treasures within the Star Tower, but you'll also lose your life.
Buzz.
The Immortal Sword returned to its sheath, Green-Robed Woman acted as if nothing had happened.
Good luck.
Chen Xiaoyao wiped the sweat from his forehead. The two girls he had just intended to protect actually possessed Middle-Grade Immortal Artifacts and had even frightened away Demon General with a single sword strike.
Etc...
Master just said that when I encounter danger, a benefactor will come to my aid, and now it has come true.
Master is truly a prophet!
The young woman asked smugly, "So? After witnessing a peerless master like Aunt Zhu, do you still think you can become a legendary hero?"
"Certainly."
"You really are ignorant and fearless. Do you even know that Aunt Zhu's cultivation has reached the eighth Void Refinement Realm... Never mind, you wouldn't understand even if I told you."
"I, Chen Xiaoyao, am not one to forget kindness. Do you know the young lady's name? When I, Chen Xiaoyao, become a peerless hero, I will surely repay the young lady for saving my life."
"What nonsense are you spouting? With my status, you have no chance to repay me. Fine, I'll tell you anyway. Just remember this well: my name is Tang Ling’er!"
