Death is Inevitable, Might as Well Curse Freely

"Sect Leader, the cultivators and demonic beasts near Luoshui Town have almost all been scoured by us. What should we do next?"

In the dim stone chamber, a middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey-like cheeks, dressed in a black and red robe, was bowing.

He was the Right Protector of the Heavenly Demon Cult, and on the stone chair in front of him sat a young man also dressed in a black robe.

This man had a sinister and charming appearance, exuding an uncomfortable aura. He was none other than Ye Shang, the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Demon Cult.

"Release the news that a Profound Heaven Realm demonic beast has appeared in the demonic beast forest. This should attract more cultivators."

"I am at a critical juncture in breaking through to the early stage of the Spirit Sovereign Realm. Do not disturb me unless it is a major affair!"

"…Yes!"

The Right Protector retreated tremblingly.

As he exited, the Left Protector approached him.

"Old Right, what did the Sect Leader say?"

"After we perform a blood sacrifice with this batch of cultivators and demonic beasts, we'll find a way to attract more people to the demonic beast forest. He needs to cultivate and break through recently, so we're not to disturb him."

"That's good. Once the Sect Leader breaks through to the Spirit Sovereign Realm, our Heavenly Demon Cult won't have to endure humiliation and keep such a low profile!"

As they spoke, the two entered a dark stone chamber.

Upon entering, an extremely strong smell of decay and blood assaulted their senses.

Lying in the stone chamber were over ten human cultivators and more than ten demonic beasts.

Despite their different species, their predicament was equally dire.

Their limbs were all bound by handcuffs made of a special material that could suppress spiritual and demonic energy.

Bound by these handcuffs, even cultivators or demonic beasts were helpless.

As soon as they entered, a man in a yellow immortal robe began to curse loudly.

"You devils, scum, trash! You will all face retribution!"

This man was Xuan Yu. His delicate face was covered in dust, and his hair was messy, indicating he hadn't been cleaned for a long time.

Although he was covered in blood and grime, his mental state seemed to be the best among all the captives.

"Heh, little brat, you're facing death, yet you still have the energy to shout. We'll make you the first one to be sacrificed later!"

The Right Protector looked at Xuan Yu with a sinister expression.

In this life, he hated these lucky individuals with good talent the most.

If he hadn't accidentally joined the Heavenly Demon Cult and relied on the blood sacrifice formation to improve his cultivation, he probably would never have broken through to the Profound Heaven Realm in his life.

Now, both his and the Left Protector's cultivation had broken through to the late stage of the Profound Heaven Realm, and it was likely they could even break through to the Spirit Channeling Realm in the future.

Although the Heavenly Demon Cult didn't have many members yet, one day it would surely grow stronger and become the number one demonic cult in the East Hill Domain. That day was within reach.

Just thinking of that day made the Right Protector incredibly excited.

Who says my roots are impure and I'm not suited for cultivation? My fate is mine to control, not dictated by heaven!

While the two were talking, the Left Protector had already activated the blood sacrifice formation on the ground.

A strange red hexagon appeared on the ground, filled with bizarre patterns. Just looking at it instilled an inexplicable sense of dread.

Along these patterns were dark red marks, evidence of the suffering of the cultivators who had been sacrificed before.

"Alright, Old Right, stop wasting your breath on the dying. The blood sacrifice formation has been activated. Once it absorbs this batch of nutrients, our Heavenly Demon Art will advance further."

Xuan Yu continued to curse:

"Pah! Trash! Still thinking about improving your cultivation? Sooner or later, you'll be backlashed by the Demonic Cultivation Art and explode!"

These words were too ominous, making both the Right and Left Protectors uncomfortable.

"Since you're in such a hurry to die, we'll grant your wish!"

Saying this, the Right Protector extended his right hand, and Xuan Yu's body uncontrollably moved closer, his neck firmly grasped.

With his throat choked, Xuan Yu could only let out muffled sounds, but they were still piercing.

His heart was filled with despair; this was his last struggle before death.

Since he was going to die anyway, he might as well curse to his heart's content.

"Rumble!"

Just then, the stone door was completely cleaved open.

"Who?!"

The Left and Right Protectors simultaneously looked outside. Standing at the forefront was a stunningly beautiful woman in a blue dress, her hand in a blade-like pose.

It was obvious that the stone door had just been split open by her bare hands using a Wind Blade.

Behind her stood four cultivators and a Three-tailed Fire Fox.

Seeing the cultivators and demonic beasts lying within the stone chamber, Qu Shengwen's anger flared.

"I knew why so many cultivators were disappearing from Luoshui Town! It turns out this demonic cult of yours is behind it!"

Qu Zhuowen was also very angry, her small face puffed out:

"You actually attacked disciples of Asking Dao Valley. If Master finds out, you're finished!"

Upon hearing this, the Right Guardian gave a sinister smile:

"Just when I was worried about not having new nourishment, an ignorant brat delivered themselves to my doorstep."

"As long as I kill you all right now, your so-called Master won't be able to find us, hahahaha..."

The Left Guardian frowned:

"This is a critical moment for the Cult Master's breakthrough. To avoid any variables, let's finish this quickly!"

Xia Wantang could discern the cultivation of these two, and quickly said:

"Their cultivation is at the late stage of the Profound Heaven Realm. Everyone be careful!"

As she spoke, she swung her right hand, and several Wind Blades shot rapidly towards the Left and Right Guardians.

Unfortunately, her current body lacked a suitable weapon. The Ice Luan Sword was meant for Xia Wantang's body in the future. If she used it now, it would be easy for the Sons of Destiny to discover something was amiss.

However, her current cultivation was at the early stage of the Spirit Sovereign Realm, making it very easy to deal with the two guardians.

At this moment, she was especially grateful to be using Tang Wan's identity.

The Left and Right Guardians of the Heavenly Demon Cult were both at the late stage of the Profound Heaven Realm. One could imagine how powerful the Cult Master was.

If she had used another identity, it would truly have been her leading Yan Wen and the others to their deaths.

Let alone killing the Cult Master, just dealing with these two guardians would have been a struggle!

"Old Right, no, this little girl's cultivation—"

The Left Guardian was about to warn the Right Guardian, but before he could finish speaking, he was struck by the seemingly simple Wind Blades and spat out blood.

He collapsed on the ground, and in the final moment of his life, he said in disbelief and horror:

"My, my cultivation is gone—?!"

The Right Guardian's eyes widened. Just as he was about to flee to notify the Cult Master, the next moment, a Wind Blade instantly severed his head, separating it from his body.

Seeing Xia Wantang so easily dispatch the two guardians, Qu Shengwen's eyes nearly bulged out:

Good heavens, Fellow Daoist Tang is too fierce. As expected, she is not a heroine that I can aspire to.

Yan Wen's eyes deepened:

His cultivation was at the late stage of the Profound Heaven Realm, and even with the Three-tailed Fire Fox, they could have easily dealt with the two guardians, but it definitely wouldn't have been as simple and swift as Fellow Daoist Tang.

To think, she didn't even use a weapon.

What was her true strength? If she was really only twenty years old, such strength was truly astonishing.
