The Death of the You Lian Holy Envoy

"Old man, let's see how long you can hold out."

When the vengeful ghost face of the You Lian Holy Envoy clashed with Chu Mo's mountain and river imagery, it was time to test individual skill. Yet, a hint of smugness lingered in the eyes of the You Lian Holy Envoy.

This old man hasn't even fully recovered from his own injuries, yet he dares to get involved in this; he can't possibly be a match for me.

On the other side, Chu Mo revealed a smile during the stalemate. His goal was not to defeat the You Lian Holy Envoy himself, but simply to stop him.

Chu Mo looked at You Lian Holy Envoy with the same gaze he had directed at a dead man, a smirk playing on his lips.

"How long I can hold on is none of your concern, but I think you're about to die."

Upon hearing Chu Mo's words, the You Lian Holy Envoy's expression hardened. Her divine sense had been probing all around but had not found anything. Suddenly, a sharp and piercing sword intent erupted from behind her.

"Ah!"

The You Lian Holy Envoy suddenly turned terrified. He roared, channeled his inner energy, and disregarded his own injuries, unleashing his true power to repel Chu Mo and create distance between them.

Then, in an instant, the You Lian Holy Envoy flew up and merged into the giant ghost face that was originally behind him. The ghost face spread out as if it were endless, with blood-red eyes and a grotesque and terrifying expression, as if the roar of a vengeful spirit was heard.

"[Lotus Birth Great Method, Reclaiming Lives]"

Endless resentment condensed into many small ghost faces the size of human faces, turning this area into a realm of vengeful spirits.

Ten feet behind the You Lian Holy Envoy, a flying knife hovered in the air in front of Li Xunhuan, its blade intent gathering and its energy locking onto the You Lian Holy Envoy.

Gazing at the enormous ghostly face before him, and surrounded by the wailing of countless souls, Li Xunhuan remained unfazed, a slight smile naturally playing on his lips, exuding a sense of ease and composure.

With a flick of his finger, Little Li Flying Dagger shot out in an instant. The blade, though only an inch long, seemed to possess a blade aura hundreds of feet long, impossible to dodge, and utterly devastating.

The sharp blade intent tore through the vengeful spirits of the You Lian Holy Envoy, and the seemingly endless ghostly faces on the horizon were also cleaved in two by this tiny blade of light.

With a single strike, ten thousand vengeful souls vanished.

"Ah!!!"

A figure in purple fell directly from the sky, letting out a heart-wrenching scream that pierced the eardrums.

The You Lian Holy Envoy fell to the ground and could not get up again. Two bloody streaks flashed across his eyes, and his aura became weak and intermittent, like a candle flickering in its twilight years.

Gazing at the white-clad figure on the horizon, the You Lian Holy Envoy could not make out the figure clearly through his blurred vision, and he spoke intermittently.

"You, your knife, the knife is clearly gone."

Before she could finish speaking, the soul of the You Lian Holy Envoy shattered completely and vanished into nothingness. Her entire body became deathly still, yet there was not a single cut or wound on her body, and Li Xunhuan's flying knife had also disappeared without a trace.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Li Xunhuan, suspended in the air, heard the dying words of the You Lian Holy Envoy and shook his head.

"My knife clearly didn't hit you, so why are you dead?"

"You shouldn't have fully revealed your divine soul, using the resentment of all living beings to merge with it and fight against me. From the moment you decided to use the power of your divine soul, you were already dead."

A blade that severs the body, a blade that severs the soul; Little Li Flying Dagger, Unparalleled in the world. What makes Li Xunhuan's blade terrifying is never the blade itself, but the unique artistic conception it evokes.

Even without that throwing knife, he would still be Li Xunhuan. Even if someone else learned the Little Li Flying Dagger, they would not become the next Li Xunhuan.

That kind of artistic conception is something that no one else can learn or possess. There will only be one Li Xunhuan in the world, and only that Little Li Flying Dagger Li Xunhuan.

Chu Mo, who had witnessed everything, stood motionless, as if frozen in place.

Suddenly, Chu Mo's body shuddered violently. A slender, white hand rested on Chu Mo's shoulder. Looking to the side, he saw Li Xunhuan, dressed in white with a leisurely expression.

Li Xunhuan put a hand on Chu Mo's shoulder, blinked, and looked down at his own clothes. There was nothing wrong with them!

Why is Chu Mo, who comes from the Imperial Clan, staring at me without moving or blinking?

Li Xunhuan waved his hand in front of Chu Mo's eyes and said leisurely.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, it's all resolved."

Chu Mo nodded mechanically, as if his mind were working, and answered stiffly.

"Yes, yes, it's resolved."

Seeing Chu Mo standing there in a daze, Li Xunhuan said nothing more. After greeting him, he walked towards the corpse of the You Lian Holy Envoy, leaving Chu Mo alone, still standing there in a daze.

Hmm? That's not right!

Chu Mo's eyes widened instantly, as if they were about to pop out. Looking at Li Xunhuan, who walked with an elegant gait and appeared to be a carefree young man, Chu Mo was filled with shock and muttered to himself.

"This... this is the solution?"

That one throwing knife, it just flew over in a flash and the person was dead?

Couldn't even last three seconds?

Is it really that simple?

If you had told me it was this simple earlier, why would I have stopped people in the first place?

I got beaten up for nothing.

Coming to his senses, Chu Mo instantly appeared before the corpse of the You Lian Holy Envoy in a flash, and carefully examined it.

"Hiss hiss hiss!!!"

After seeing it, Chu Mo couldn't help but gasp. He was really dead. The Blood Lotus Sect's You Lian Holy Envoy was gone with a single strike, his soul completely dissipated, leaving him with no chance of life.

Then what about me?

Chu Mo couldn't stop thinking about himself; he realized he was still inferior to the You Lian Holy Envoy.

I'd estimate his current strength is only on par with Gu Ji of the Lieyang Sect. I definitely couldn't withstand that strike alone, so could Gu Ji even do it with me?

Chu Mo shook his head instantly. Damn it, what are you thinking? That's a Great Feng! Can our own Imperial Clan's Celestial Phenomenon Realm ancestor stop him?

As he thought about it, a smile crept into Chu Mo's eyes, and a twisted smile appeared on his lips. He squatted down, and Chu Mo's hand unconsciously stroked the face of the You Lian Holy Envoy.

She is truly an absolutely beautiful woman!

The skin was fair, delicate, and elastic. Even after death, the person looked as if they were asleep, still perfectly flawless. Mister Li's knife is truly extraordinary!

The more Chu Mo thought about it, the more excited he became. Looking at the alluring corpse of the You Lian Holy Envoy, even in death, Chu Mo's body trembled slightly. Even back in the Imperial Clan, his ancestor had never treated him like this!

They would dig up graves and run around everywhere in search of a good corpse, making people live in constant fear. Now look at him, he can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor, with the corpses of powerful cultivators at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm being delivered to his door.

This is really good material!

With the addition of Dong Xuanfeng's corpse, he instantly possessed the corpses of two Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts, both of which were excellent materials.

Seeing Li Xunhuan approaching, Chu Mo's eyes burned with excitement as he asked.

"Mister Li, could you give me this body?"

The man was killed by Li Xunhuan, and even without Li Xunhuan, he would have been defeated. To take someone else's spoils of war, one should naturally give prior notice.

This is also a rule of the Corpse Immortal Sect: whoever kills it gets to keep it; of course, might makes right also counts, but that's another rule.

Looking at the corpse, Chu Mo felt a burning heat in his hands. It had been too long since he had refined a corpse, and he needed to try it out again. This was the first time he had ever touched such a high-grade Celestial Phenomenon Realm item, and just thinking about it made him excited!

Li Xunhuan looked at Chu Mo with a strange expression, but still spoke in a deep voice.

"This is a holy envoy of the Blood Lotus Sect. He needs to return to His Your Highness to make a decision. Fellow Chu Mo can go and ask His Your Highness about these matters."

Chu Mo nodded repeatedly, sounding somewhat eager.

"Yes, yes, we're looking for His Your Highness, we're looking for His Your Highness, let's go now."
