Before long, on Penglai Island, Xuanming and Jumang led a host of Great Witches in slaughtering their way across the battlefield, routing the Immortal Court and driving this faction from the stage.
At this moment, Xuanxiao said, "Watch closely. Dong Wanggong is about to hold out no longer. Xuanming isn't even using a magic treasure right now—she's just beating him barehanded for fun. Once she's had her fill and is ready to deliver the killing blow, take Dong Wanggong out with one strike of the bell."
Taiyi nodded. "Sure thing. But what should we do in the meantime?"
Xuanxiao chuckled. "What should we do? Of course, something fun. You wait here to claim the kill. I'll empty the Immortal Court's treasury. Gahaha."
Taiyi shook his head helplessly and thought, Such a powerful figure, yet he's a money grubber. How amusing.
And so, Taiyi continued watching Xuanming beat Dong Wanggong senseless, while Xuanxiao went to the Immortal Court's treasury and ran into Jieyin. Zhunti was also secretly stealing treasures there. Xuanxiao shouted, "Hey! Leave everything behind!"
Zhunti was shocked. "Why should we leave it all to you? We're all here to profit from the chaos. What makes you so special?"
Xuanxiao chuckled. "Have you forgotten the beating you took near Treasure Distribution Rock? Believe me, I can beat you two up again."
Zhunti shook his head. "I don't believe you. The Immortal Court's treasury isn't particularly sturdy. If we start fighting and this place collapses, you'll be exposed too."
Xuanxiao nodded. "That does seem to be the case. Then I'd like to see who Dong Wanggong decides to fight to the death with." With that, Xuanxiao struck without warning and punched Zhunti.
Zhunti was horrified and hurriedly summoned the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree to shield himself. The Seven Treasures Divine Light collided with the Supreme Pure Immortal Light and shattered the treasury outright, revealing Jieyin, Zhunti, and Xuanxiao inside to Dong Wanggong.
Xuanxiao laughed loudly. "Dong Wanggong, your ability to rule is lacking. In the middle of a great battle, two mighty figures who joined the Immortal Court are secretly transferring treasures here."
Hearing this, Dong Wanggong flew into a rage. He even stopped paying attention to Xuanming, who had been beating him, and charged straight at Jieyin and Zhunti. Zhunti shouted, "Dong Wanggong, calm down! In your current ruined state, you're no match for the two of us, Senior Brothers."
Dong Wanggong said, "No match, you say? My Immortal Court is finished anyway. Today, I'll make you pay the price." With that, he charged forward and detonated himself point-blank against Jieyin and Zhunti.
Duang! Taiyi protected Xuanxiao with the Chaos Bell, so the two of them were unharmed. Everyone else, however, was in terrible shape. Jieyin and Zhunti's souls were injured, while Xuanming and Jumang used their Ancestral Witch True Bodies to withstand the blast. The Witch Clan troops behind them were unharmed, but the two of them were still badly wounded by the explosion.
Taiyi said, "We'll have to fight sooner or later anyway. How about we... strike first and kill these two Ancestral Witches?"
Xuanxiao shook his head. "The relationship between the Witch and Demon Clans may not be beyond reconciliation. Besides, eliminating them while they're injured would be somewhat dishonorable." With that, Xuanxiao called out to Xuanming, Jumang, and the other members of the Witch Clan, "I'll give you a chance. I want the Bodhi Branch. As long as you chop off one of Zhunti's legs, I'll let your Witch Clan leave."
Hearing this, Xuanming nodded and charged straight at Jieyin and Zhunti. Seeing this, Jumang used the Power of Wood to restrain Zhunti and said, "Xing Tian, what are you waiting for? Go help!"
A mouth opened in Xing Tian's stomach. "Ancestral Witch, I've already lost my head, and I still have to fight? Can't you let me rest for a while?"
Jumang shot back, "That thing you call a head was never of much use to you anyway. Get moving. Besides you, do you see anyone else who came this time carrying an axe? You want me to chop wood with the Earth Mang Spear?"
With that, Xing Tian had no choice but to go to Zhunti's side. He raised his great axe and began hacking away with loud clanks and cracks. Well, since Xing Tian's cultivation was only average, the process of chopping off one of Zhunti's legs was an absolute mess.
Xuanxiao looked at Taiyi and said, "Xing Tian is seriously damn useless. He's taking this long just to chop off Zhunti's leg... In this much time, we could've had a Little Golden Crow."
Hearing Xuanxiao's complaint, Xing Tian thought, Xuanxiao never said which leg he wanted. I'll just chop off the easier one. Then Zhunti let out a howl of "Awooo!"
One had to understand that the body of a Quasi-Saint was difficult to injure and even harder to heal. That was why, in later generations, the Western Teachings and Buddhism both added a doctrine forbidding intimacy with women.
