Slaughter Unleashed

Gu Youwei is dead?!

At the sight of that tiny body in the corpse pit, every cultivator froze in shock!

Their gazes converged on Gu Youwei in unison.

Gu Youwei was standing here alive and well right now.

Gu Youwei herself wore a bewildered expression.

She had no recollection whatsoever of ever going through something like this.

"Perhaps my master saved me. I met Master when I was about three years old. I entered the sect... it should have been around this time."

The shock on everyone's faces remained impossible to conceal.

In the scene, Gu Youwei had no breath left in her. She was clearly dead beyond doubt.

This world was not lacking in spiritual medicines or divine roots, but no one had ever heard of a divine elixir capable of reviving the dead and restoring flesh to bare bones.

No one had expected Gu Youwei's master's lineage and foundation to be so terrifying.

"So, Miss Youwei's master appeared at this time."

"But why didn't he take the Young Heavenly Emperor as his disciple? Why did he take only Miss Youwei instead?"

Someone asked suspiciously.

Judging solely from the talent the Young Heavenly Emperor had displayed so far, a person like him was destined for unimaginable achievements in the future.

If that was the case, why had Gu Youwei's master taken only Gu Youwei as a disciple?

Ye Chen spoke up then. "Isn't it obvious? Before long, the Heavenly Emperor's Dao foundation must have been destroyed. Meanwhile, Miss Youwei's Immortal Root awakened at this time, which was why she caught his attention."

"Perhaps when Miss Youwei's Immortal Root awakened, she was able to be reborn."

"I once read an ancient text that said an Immortal Root can nurture injuries. So long as a trace of flesh and blood remains, one can be reborn where they stand."

Hearing Ye Chen's analysis, everyone came to a realization.

"In that case, the Heavenly Emperor's Dao foundation was likely destroyed in Jade Void Palace."

Within the corpse pit.

Gu Changqing's body trembled violently. His face was deathly pale as he stared, mouth agape and unable to believe it, at that tiny body.

That little corpse no longer held even a trace of color.

Gu Changqing slowly pushed aside the pile of bodies and gathered that small corpse into his arms.

That bone-deep coldness was undoubtedly telling him one fact.

Youwei was dead!

Just like their father and mother, she was dead.

A despair unlike anything he had ever known shrouded his heart.

"Youwei..."

"Youwei..."

It seemed he could not accept this reality. He shook the tiny corpse.

But the little troublemaker who had once been so lively and full of mischief merely lay there limply, allowing him to move her as he pleased.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Tears streamed down without end, and Gu Changqing's vision turned blood-red.

He was weeping blood!

This was the little girl he had watched grow up bit by bit!

His younger sister, whom he had fed with his own flesh, whom he had repeatedly risked his life to bring ferocious beast meat for, whom he had guarded with his life as she grew bit by bit.

Within that bloody light, scene after scene seemed to rise before Gu Changqing's eyes.

"Big brother, where are Father and Mother?"

"Big brother, Youwei has grown up too. I can roast meat and feed Big Brother now..."

The feeling of that little brat riding on his shoulders, even chopping at his head, was still so vivid.

But she...

How had she suddenly become so cold?

Looking at the familiar girl in his arms—her icy corpse, her terrified expression...

"YOUWEI!!!"

From within the corpse pit, a roar like that of a savage beast suddenly thundered across heaven and earth.

Outside the mirror.

All the cultivators were moved at this moment.

These beings, who only needed to so much as shift their bodies to make the Northern Profound Continent tremble, now had red-rimmed eyes.

Gu Youwei unconsciously shed tears.

Her heart, frozen for ages, was pierced by searing pain at this moment.

Within that hoarse roar, like the cry of a savage beast, lay emotions so despairing they broke the heart!

Gu Changqing walked out of the pit of corpses step by step, just as he once had, and stroked little Youwei's cheek.

He smoothed away that expression of utter terror.

"Don't be afraid, Youwei. Brother will make these people accompany you in death..."

At that moment.

An incomparably terrifying aura erupted from the Young Heavenly Emperor's body. Ripples blasted out in every direction, shearing mountains and rivers cleanly in half.

Every living thing within a hundred li of the surrounding area—

At this moment, all were annihilated in this youth's fury.

The winds and clouds of heaven and earth suddenly changed. The blazing sun retreated, rolling thunder shrieked above the nine heavens, black clouds pressed down upon the city, and heaven and earth wept in grief!

Within the sacred land of Jade Void Palace, the dragon of fortune howled without cease.

Every disciple of this sect's holy land, prosperous for countless ages, fell into unprecedented terror.

"Today, I will unleash a massacre."

Beneath the vast heavens, the Young Heavenly Emperor rose into the skies, a rusty woodcutter's blade in hand, his killing intent filling the firmament.

Outside the mirror.

After neutralizing Cao Yuwei's attack this time, Mei Gongzi did not rush to counterattack. She merely stood where she was.

Cao Yuwei frowned slightly. Was this little girl's perception truly so keen? After he had turned flames into armor, he still had other methods at his disposal. If Mei Gongzi had followed up with an attack, he was confident he could use that method to restrain her. But Mei Gongzi did not advance, forcing the ability he had been holding in readiness to be interrupted.

The battle saber slashed out once more, its powerful saber intent several degrees stronger than before. Cao Yuwei moved with his saber, man and blade as one, charging straight at Mei Gongzi.

The Heavenly Secret Plume in Mei Gongzi's hand formed another Heavenly Mysterious Circle, and with an instant displacement, she switched positions. While dissolving her opponent's attack, she also broke his lock-on. In the next instant, she was already on the other side. A golden-red flash flickered across Cao Yuwei's body; had she not dodged quickly, another ability would undoubtedly have descended upon her.

A battle of attrition! She seemed to be planning to wear Cao Yuwei down.

Yet no one doubted where this ability came from. After all, the Peacock Demon Race's greatest innate gift was Stellar Transposition. Her technique had the same marvelous effect through a different path as Stellar Transposition.
