Let Them In!

"Back off."

Ji Fa raised a hand to stop the Nine-Tailed Fox, his gaze never leaving Guangchengzi's chest.

The Nine-Tailed Fox did not force the issue. She retreated half a step, but all nine fox tails fanned out behind her.

"It is only a mark. It may not be enough to let the Primordial Heavenly Demon's True Body descend."

She sent him a Voice Transmission in secret.

"Kill Guangchengzi now and sever the mark. There may still be time."

The same thought flashed through Ji Fa's mind.

With their strength, joining forces to kill a newly ascended Saint with an unstable foundation would not be difficult at all.

But what came after killing him?

The Primordial Heavenly Demon had already taken possession of Venerable Yuanshi's karma. Kunlun Mountain was his Dao Field.

And Guangchengzi was a pawn he had personally brought forth.

If Guangchengzi had just left Kunlun only to die in Western Qi, that slap would land squarely across the Primordial Heavenly Demon's face.

Ji Fa was not afraid of Guangchengzi.

What he truly feared was the Dragon Emperor's fate.

That Dragon Emperor had likewise come from a past era, and his cultivation had already recovered to the realm of Primordial Chaos.

And what had happened?

For nothing more than a few defiant words, he had been wiped out with a single finger by the Primordial Heavenly Demon.

Not even his Primordial Spirit had escaped.

Ji Fa knew that at his peak, he had indeed been stronger than the Dragon Emperor. But now, he had yet to recover all his power.

Even with the Nine-Tailed Fox, they had no absolute confidence they could withstand that finger.

When Guangchengzi saw that Ji Fa did not continue attacking, he finally let out a breath of relief.

That battle had already shattered
