A Hair's Breadth from Disaster!

Yan Family.

That night, Grand Elder Yan Song received a letter and a Shadow Recording Stone.

When he opened them, he discovered that the contents of the Shadow Recording Stone were actually his three women!

And the letter contained only one sentence.

"If you want to save them, come to Crescent Moon Valley alone. Otherwise, they will not see tomorrow's sun."

Bang!!

Yan Song crushed the Shadow Recording Stone and the letter in fury.

Then, without notifying anyone, he left the Yan Family alone and charged toward Crescent Moon Valley in a towering rage.

Crescent Moon Valley.

The night was deep and silent. At this moment, Yan Song's three young mistresses were still unconscious, bound to a tree in the valley.

Meng Ruoxue wore a flowing blue gown, her graceful figure light and elegant. A veil covered her peerless face as she stood quietly in place, waiting for her target.

At this moment, behind a boulder above the valley.

Chu Yun and the Sky Demoness concealed their auras and did not dare approach too closely, hiding behind the rock as they observed in secret.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. This old man really knows how to enjoy himself."

"Three women, all young, all as lovely as flowers and as fair as jade. His body may be old, but his ambitions are not. Worth learning from."

Chu Yun glanced at the three women. Their skin was moist and radiant, showing that they had been well nourished all along. Yan Song's bones and muscles seemed especially vigorous as well.

"What? You want three wives and four concubines too?" The Sky Demoness looked at him strangely.

Chu Yun chuckled. "What are you saying? My heart was simply born divided into several pieces, each falling in love with a different woman."

"But the one I love most is definitely you, Xin'er."

The Sky Demoness glared at him disdainfully. "Smooth talker. You know perfectly well what you are thinking."

The Sky Demoness actually had quite a strong capacity for tolerance when it came to Chu Yun.

After all, she knew that if Chu Yun inherited the throne in the future, it would be impossible for him to have only one woman by his side. That was unrealistic.

What was more, she had seen far too much in her previous life and knew clearly that one must never try to control a man with a mind of his own.

Wanting him to succeed while also wanting him to remain forever devoted to only you—that was a fairy tale.

As long as he held her in his heart, the Sky Demoness was satisfied.

Chu Yun smiled awkwardly. Suddenly, a streak of Nirvana Radiance fell from the distance like a meteor. His expression turned serious. "He's here."

At the bottom of the valley, that Nirvana Light landed upon the ground and transformed into a bald old man in gray robes. His face was filled with anger, and he radiated imposing authority.

Meng Ruoxue stood opposite him, her gaze fixed on him. "Grand Elder Yan Song, it is a pleasure to meet you."

"Cut the fucking nonsense!"

"Release my women!"

"Otherwise, tonight, I'll make sure you die without even a corpse left behind!!"

Rumor had it that Yan Song had a violent temper. Seeing him today, that was indeed true.

At this moment, he pointed directly at Meng Ruoxue and cursed at her without restraint.

Meng Ruoxue was not affected by him at all. Her voice was as melodious as heavenly music as she replied unhurriedly, "Fine. I'll release them."

Immediately afterward, Meng Ruoxue began untying the three women, then used spiritual power to send all three of them before Yan Song.

Yan Song watched her warily. Only after confirming that the three women were merely lightly unconscious and unharmed did the heart he had been holding in his throat ease somewhat. "Who exactly are you?"

"What do you want?"

Yan Song could not understand Meng Ruoxue's purpose. She had captured his women to lure him here, yet released them so easily?

He was truly bewildered.

"My purpose is very simple."

"I merely wish to borrow something from you."

Yan Song frowned. "What?"

"Your life."

The moment Meng Ruoxue's words fell, formation patterns emerged across the ground of the entire Crescent Moon Valley. Their radiance lit up the night sky as the formations directly trapped Yan Song within.

Above them, the power of the formation gathered into countless lightning arrows. Thunder ravaged the heavens as they descended in a vast, roaring torrent.

On the ground, the entire earth turned into a swamp, countless muddy hands stretching out to seize Yan Song and the others.

Directly before Meng Ruoxue, the final killing formation activated. A thousand-meter-tall giant holding a battle axe appeared in the sky, its body covered in formation patterns like a miniature Battle Venerable Body, and its axe came crashing down.

All three killing formations had been meticulously arranged by Meng Ruoxue. This could be considered giving Yan Song sufficient respect.

Yan Song looked at the densely packed formation attacks sealing him in from every side, and his expression immediately darkened.

Great Annihilation Seal!!

He brought his hands together, both palms unleashing cross-shaped palm seals infused with dense Nirvana Power—unyielding and indestructible, a tyrannical strike.

Bang!!

The battle-axe giant's axe was knocked aside by his palm seals, while the countless lightning arrows were crushed apart by the power of those seals.

But those swamp tentacles had already lifted the three women, preparing to drag them into the depths of the swamp.

Yan Song's fury surged to the heavens. His figure flashed past like a shadow, and Nirvana Light gathered at his hands and feet into a great mountain that pressed down upon the swamp, severing those swamp tentacles.

He caught the three women and placed them atop that mountain.

At the same time, the killing formations shifted once more.

The lightning arrows drew in the swamp mud and gathered into enormous meteors that rolled down and smashed toward him. Meng Ruoxue stood atop the giant's head, controlling it as it confronted Yan Song's Nirvana Power head-on.

Great Sumeru Palm!!

Yan Song struck with all his strength. Nirvana Power condensed into his palm as he furiously unleashed a heaven-supporting giant seal. The mere ripples it emitted were enough to overturn mountains and seas.

At last, he understood why she had released his women.

She wanted to use them to distract him.

And Meng Ruoxue had indeed achieved her goal. In order to protect his three women, Yan Song had no choice but to devote part of his attention to them.

And this was precisely what Meng Ruoxue wanted.

The Great Sumeru Palm blocked the massive meteors raining down and the giant's crushing battle-axe strike.

But he had forgotten Meng Ruoxue.

Wheel of Destiny!

Meng Ruoxue had been searching for an opportunity. Now that Yan Song was focused entirely on dealing with the powers of the killing formations, he had inevitably lowered his guard against her.

The next moment, an enormous Wheel of Destiny appeared atop the mountain like a phantom of light. It was stained with the radiance of destiny, sacred and noble, its strength beyond imagination!

The Wheel of Destiny immediately smashed down toward Yan Song.

At this moment, Yan Song had no time to react at all. His back was completely exposed to her.

Once the Wheel of Destiny crashed down, Yan Song's Nirvana Body would be severely wounded, and he would fall completely into Meng Ruoxue's rhythm of control.

"You want to break through to the Nirvana Realm so badly."

"Did you ask me first?"

At the critical moment, the Sky Demoness's demonic light directly blasted through the formation barrier.

Her and Chu Yun's figures appeared openly in the arena!
