Task Complete

"That dragon is amazing!" The cultivators outside the projection exclaimed in amazement upon seeing this scene.

"Fahai's cultivation was unfathomable, and he possessed numerous high-level spiritual artifacts, yet he was swallowed by this dragon. It's utterly terrifying."

"After the white snake transforms into a dragon, can its cultivation level increase to this extent?" a cultivator asked doubtfully.

"This dragon looks familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before," a cultivator said, frowning.

"I feel the same way."

"I understand! I saw her fighting with the Saint yesterday morning; the shopkeeper had to personally intervene to subdue her."

"That's right, I even saw her punch the Saint into the ground."

"Hiss!" As soon as these words were spoken, a chorus of surprised exclamations arose from all around, and everyone stared in shock at the middle-aged woman in the projection.

To actually smash Saint into the ground—that takes immense power! Even Saint Chu couldn't do that!

"Could it be... that Divine Beast from the Nine Heavens Mountain?" A cultivator stammered, and silence fell over the surroundings.

No one spoke, but everyone's expressions conveyed a sense of certainty.

The dragon inside is the Divine Beast of Nine Heavens Mountain!

While everyone was guessing the middle-aged woman's identity, Yun Qingyang broke free from Ma Feifei's hands and went straight into mid-air to look at the middle-aged woman.

"Hmm?" The middle-aged woman frowned, looking at the man in black opposite her with a puzzled expression. Suddenly, she realized what was going on and said, "What are you doing here?"

Clearly, she Detect Yun Qingyang's true identity.

"Of course I'm here to deal with you!" Yun Qingyang said coldly.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged woman smiled slightly and said, "You are far from being as good as your father."

"Whether it's good or bad, we'll know once we try." Yun Qingyang, wielding the Setting Sun Sword, transformed into a streak of light and charged towards the middle-aged woman.

"Boom!"

A muffled rumble of thunder sounded in the sky, and the sky began to change color, becoming gloomy. A strong wind rustled the willows and made the West Lake roar.

The two of them soared upwards, breaking through the clouds and reaching the heavens, where they fought fiercely, plunging the world into darkness.

Standing below, Ma Feifei looked up at the sky, still somewhat nervous. After all, Yun Qingyang had suffered a loss when facing the dragon before, and his strength was probably somewhat inferior to the dragon's. In this Single Battle situation, the possibility of defeating the dragon was very small, and the possibility of being defeated was greater. Ma Feifei had to pay attention at all times and be ready to make a move.

With that thought, Ma Feifei transformed into a streak of light and soared into the sky.

Above the clouds, Yun Qingyang was fiercely fighting with the middle-aged woman. The Remnant Setting Sun Sword and the emerald green longsword kept clashing together. To Ma Feifei's surprise, the two swords kept colliding, but they did not produce any sound. It was as if he was hitting cotton with his fist. He was clearly using all his strength, but there was no sound.

Judging from their current state, it seems unlikely that a winner will emerge in the short term. Ma Feifei has no choice but to wait patiently from a distance. However, due to the powerful aftershocks generated during their fight, Ma Feifei has to defend himself from time to time, which is quite uncomfortable.

"Huh!" Suddenly, Ma Feifei noticed something very strange: after each of Yun Qingyang's attacks, the Setting Sun Sword would leave behind a tiny wisp of 'qi'. This wisp was colorless, blended into the air, and had no Spiritual Power fluctuations. If it weren't for the fact that Ma Feifei and Yun Qingyang were of one mind, it would be difficult to sense this wisp of 'qi'.

"It seems to be a remnant from the Setting Sun Sword." Ma Feifei observed every trajectory of the Remnant Setting Sun Sword and confirmed where this wisp of 'qi' came from.

Gradually, Ma Feifei discovered that Yun Qingyang's attacks were all predictable. Although each sword strike did not harm the middle-aged woman, the 'qi' flowing down with each strike, after Yun Qingyang constantly changed the direction of his sword, eventually trapped the middle-aged woman inside.

"Buzz~!"

Just then, a sudden change occurred. A sound like the waves of a zither rang out, and the 'qi' that had been silently surrounding the middle-aged woman suddenly materialized, transforming into a net that strangled her.

The middle-aged woman was immediately taken aback, and a huge, dark blue light erupted from her body.

"Boom!"

A hundred-meter-long dragon appeared above the clouds, its dark blue scales so dazzling and awe-inspiring.

But the net was not broken by the dragon. It stretched as high as the dragon was, and finally strangled the hundred-meter-long dragon.

"Thump!"

"Hiss~!"

The moment the enormous net constricted the dragon, it Growl out in agony, looking up at the sky. Ma Feifei saw it clearly; the net had actually entered the dragon's body and begun to erode its internal organs.

"Boom!"

The dragon seemed to be in great discomfort, constantly thrashing its body above the clouds. Its enormous body swayed in the sky like a swimming dragon, moving back and forth.

"Whoosh!"

A streak of light flashed across the sky, and Yun Qingyang, wielding the Qingshuang Sword, pierced straight through the dragon.

"Pfft~"

A large gash was pierced through the dragon's seven-inch mark, and the struggling dragon stopped moving at that moment, plummeting downwards.

"Bang!"

"Splash~"

The over 100-meter-long body crashed directly into West Lake, splashing up a torrent of rain, and the entire Hangzhou City was plunged into a downpour.

"They won?" Ma Feifei in the sky watched this scene in disbelief; Yun Qingyang's strength far exceeded his expectations.

However, Ma Feifei had no time to think about these things at this moment, because Yun Qingyang had already chased after them. Ma Feifei couldn't let Yun Qingyang really kill the dragon. Taking it directly to Leifeng Pagoda to be suppressed for eternity, and then letting the cultivators continuously whip its corpse, would be the best fate for the dragon, which would be more meaningful than killing it.

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei didn't hesitate and Somersault Cloud down, arriving at the West Lake ahead of Yun Qingyang.

"Whoosh~"

Ma Feifei reached out and grabbed the dragon's tail from a distance, pulling it upwards. The dragon's body, which was over a hundred meters long, was thus flung onto the shore by Ma Feifei.

"Buzz~"

Ma Feifei shot out a burst of purple energy, and the giant dragon instantly reverted to human form, lying on the ground, its fate unknown.

"Whoosh~"

Yun Qingyang then arrived beside Ma Feifei, looked at the middle-aged woman opposite them, and said, "Should we kill her?"

Ma Feifei shook his head and said, "I have a better way to cure her."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qingyang nodded, took out the Setting Sun Sword, handed it to Ma Feifei, and said, "Here's your sword back. Remember, don't lose it."

Before Ma Feifei could even speak, Yun Qingyang ran straight towards the middle-aged woman. With Ma Feifei looking on in confusion, Yun Qingyang snatched the spatial ring from the woman's hand and disappeared in a flash.

"Holy crap..." Ma Feifei was instantly dumbfounded. This girl is cunning! He never expected the treasure on the dragon's body.

"Ding~ The character who helped complete the mission has been teleported out of the book's world." The system notification sounded, indicating that Ma Feifei Yun Qingyang had already left, and Ma Feifei could not catch up even if she wanted to.

"Naive, I'll let you keep it safe for now." Ma Feifei sheathed the Setting Sun Sword and walked directly to the middle-aged woman. He found that she still had some vitality, but she was extremely weak. Without hesitation, he grabbed her and headed towards Leifeng Pagoda. As long as he could suppress her under Leifeng Pagoda, the mission would be complete.

"Hmm? There's still life inside me?" In the air, Ma Feifei sensed another life pulsating within her. After somersaulting to Golden Mountain Temple, a thought struck Ma Feifei.

"Swish swish~~~"

Two beams of light shot out, and Fahai and Xu Xian appeared before them. At this moment, Ma Feifei once again used his Concealment Technique to hide himself. The reason he hid was because Ma Feifei felt that it might be more appropriate to handle this matter through Fahai and Xu Xian. After all, in the original story, it was Xu Xian who sought Fahai's help to suppress the White Snake under Leifeng Pagoda. Now that Xu Xian knew the White Snake was not human, his mindset was almost identical to that in the original story. As for Fahai, needless to say, subduing demons was his mission.

Just as Ma Feifei had expected, Fahai and Xu Xian had complicated expressions after seeing the middle-aged woman. Xu Xian was particularly distraught. Finally, Fahai said a few words to Xu Xian, who nodded. Fahai then picked up the middle-aged woman and led Xu Xian toward Golden Mountain Temple.

"Ding~! Congratulations, host, for completing the task of listing the Epic-grade- quality book 'The Legend of the Righteous Demon'." As the system notification sounded, Ma Feifei transformed into a beam of light and disappeared into the world of the book.
