A streak of scarlet light came flying from the horizon.
In almost an instant, it appeared before Jiang Wuji and the others, emanating strange fluctuations of the Great Dao.
Jiang Wuji's expression shifted slightly. The cloaked figures behind him also stirred with a sudden surge of energy.
Nearly every gaze fixed on the scarlet bead.
"This is..."
Jiang Wuji and the others knew all too well what this thing was. But how had Cao Jue ended up like this?
As they wondered, a wisp of Cao Jue's soul emerged. He glared at Jiang Wuji and said:
"Stop acting like you've still got this! I'm finished!"
"The Nine Absolutes Sect is finished too. I reckon those Four Dao Destroyers are in for a bad time as well!"
His words sent everyone into shock.
Jiang Wuji's face turned ashen. He asked in confusion, "How could this happen? Four Great Emperors, and they still couldn't take down the Liyue Immortal Dynasty?"
His heart lurched as he spoke. Could they have had another trump card?
Even so, with four Great Emperors in the fight, they hadn't even been able to protect Cao Jue. It was simply unbelievable.
Cao Jue fell silent for a moment, then sneered. "They must have had something beyond your grasp. Some demoness came out of nowhere!"
"She was absurdly strong. I've roamed the world for thousands of years, and I couldn't even withstand one punch!"
He paused, then added, "Ye Qingge hid her cultivation, and with Great Emperor Zhitong, the two of them alone could hold off the Four Venerables working together."
"If that demoness had joined the battle, we'd all have died. My Nine Absolutes Sect is done for! You can figure out what to do!"
Jiang Wuji's heart sank. A demoness? Was this a trump card Lin Feng
