Seeing that the girl still didn't speak, she suddenly didn't know what to talk about.
He glanced at the corpse on the ground and said, "Actually... he didn't lie to you."
Jiang Yuechu was slightly taken aback.
"Um?"
Yunling the Great Sage sighed, her voice low and melancholic. "This man is none other than the late Emperor Li Qianyuan of the Tang Dynasty. Since you are the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty... then he is indeed your father."
A look of surprise flashed across Jiang Yuechu's face.
"Ha?"
She had heard her brother, who was her sworn brother, mention the previous emperor when she was in Chang'an.
It was said that he was seriously ill and could not be cured; he had already passed away.
If what he said is true, then he should be dead.
How did it come back to life?
Furthermore, as the emperor of the Great Tang, why would he collude with the Demon of Spirit Mountain?
And even after death, he provided such a vast amount of Dao Cultivation...
Could it be...?
Was his own biological father Demon?
Seeing her changing expression, the Great Sage Yunling assumed she still held a grudge and quickly explained, "Please don't be offended, young lady. I didn't know you were from my Jade-Carving Lineage at first. Upon hearing the news of my son's death, I was consumed by rage and came here solely for revenge..."
"But Li Qianyuan found me through the Western Region Demon Court, saying he had a foolproof plan that would allow my Spirit Mountain demons to bypass the border and go straight into the heart of the Great Tang Dynasty... He said with certainty that as long as we did so, we would be able to force you to show yourself."
"At that time, I was filled with resentment over my son's death and only wanted to enter the pass to seek revenge, so I believed him."
Jiang Yuechu's eyes flickered slightly. "What are the conditions?"
Since it's a transaction, you need to have leverage.
The other party was the former Great Tang Emperor.
Even if he abdicates or fakes his death to escape, this is still the Li Clan's empire.
They let the wolf into the house, and slaughtered their own people.
Are you out of your mind?
Great Sage Yunling chuckled and pointed at Jiang Yuechu: "Naturally, he's after the young lady's body."
Jiang Yuechu slightly raised her eyelids, her gaze suddenly turning cold.
Great Sage Yunling quickly waved his hand and explained, "Miss, please don't misunderstand! I don't have such filthy thoughts!"
"He must leave you with a complete corpse during the encirclement and slaughter; after the deed is done, he will take your body away."
He wanted his own corpse...
Jiang Yuechu frowned in deep thought.
What is it about her body that would make her worthwhile for the other person?
Could it be...?
Want to possess someone?
Seeing the girl's uncertain expression, the Great Sage Yunling felt uneasy.
She gave a dry laugh, trying to ease the tension. "Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, let's consider this matter settled."
"Though my son is dead, it is his fate to die at the hands of a young lady. He was simply outmatched, so he has no one to blame but himself..."
This old bird knows how to take advantage of a situation.
So now we're family?
Did he die in vain?
If the Golden-Winged Peng King knew this in the afterlife, he would probably be so angry that he would die again.
Jiang Yuechu did not respond.
He merely glanced at her indifferently.
"Stay here and don't move."
"Huh?" Great Sage Yunling was taken aback.
Jiang Yuechu ignored the Demon Saint's reaction.
boom--!!!
His entire body transformed into a golden rainbow, soaring into the sky.
The Great Sage Yunling stood there, unsure whether to leave or stay.
Watching that receding figure, I gritted my teeth and didn't dare to move.
Both being from the Jade-Carving Lineage, this girl's talent is truly terrifying.
If I leave now, I'm afraid I'll offend them...
Above the heavens.
Jiang Yuechu looked down at the ravaged city below.
Yizhou Prefecture is very large.
Many of the Demon corpses were not yet absorbed by him.
Jiang Yuechu took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes.
Open your arms.
Rumble--!!!
Suddenly, a fierce wind swept across the land.
Countless streams of vital energy emanated from the corpses of Demon within the city.
Like all rivers flowing into the sea, like ten thousand birds returning to the forest.
They frantically converged towards the dark figure in the air.
With a massive amount of vital energy entering the body.
Deep within the Qi Sea ).
The world was already in turmoil, with the earth shaking and mountains trembling.
One yin and one yang, two majestic mountains, have already reached a state of perfection, with no further advancement possible.
Now that we've come this far, why wait any longer?
Jiang Yuechu sat cross-legged in mid-air.
My mind sank into my Qi Sea.
" Lamp-Lighting!"
boom--!!!
This moment.
Inside the girl's body, it was as if the world had been created.
The Qi Sea boiled, and towering waves rolled up thousands of piles of snow.
The once majestic Yangshan Yang Mountain suddenly collapsed.
The rocks crumbled and turned into rolling golden liquid.
The Four Fiends roared and transformed into four towering pillars of fire.
In the blink of an eye.
An ancient and desolate lamp, entirely made of red gold and carved with animal heads, slowly took shape in the center of the Qi Sea.
The lamp ignited spontaneously without a flame.
at the same time.
The Yin Mountain, which stand in the distance, have also undergone tremendous changes.
The clouds and fog dissipated, and the thunder and lightning subsided.
Three Flood Dragon, head to tail, spiraled upwards and transformed into the body of the lamp.
Wind, rain, thunder, and lightning are the oil; the primordial energy of heaven and earth is the core.
A crystal-clear, Streak of Light Glazed Lamp appeared out of thin air.
At the wick of the lamp, a faint blue flame quietly ignites.
One gold, one blue.
Two Heart Lamp hang above the Qi Sea.
They complement each other, illuminating this world.
outside world.
The originally gloomy and dark sky was suddenly torn apart by two colors of light.
On one side, the sky was ablaze with golden clouds, like the blazing sun overhead, domineering and unparalleled.
On one side, there was a deep blue aurora, like a deep, mysterious Deep Abyss.
Rumble--!!!
A terrifying pressure, centered on the girl, swept wildly in all directions.
Until the time it takes for an incense stick to burn is up.
Jiang Yuechu slowly opened her eyes.
His left eye blazed with golden fire, as if a ferocious demon roared within.
His right eye was a deep blue flame, from which Flood Dragon could be faintly seen churning.
[Host: Jiang Yuechu ]
[Realm: Initial Lamp-Lighting Realm ]
She gently exhaled a breath of stale air.
"This is..."
Jiang Yuechu clenched her fist.
" Lamp-Lighting a lamp?"
She lowered her head.
The Great Sage Yunling froze.
"Forehead..."
She was about to speak.
But then the girl's figure swayed.
They vanished from their spot in an instant.
The next moment.
A slender, fair hand suddenly pressed down on the top of her head.
A cool, indifferent voice gently sounded in my ear.
"Since we're family..."
"Then I'll lend you something, is that too much to ask?"
As those hands slowly exerted their force.
boom--!!!
Golden flames burst forth in the girl's left eye.
A terrifying pressure spread outwards, and the remaining houses around could no longer withstand it, collapsing inwards.
Great Sage Yunling was terrified and hurriedly cried out, "As a member of my Jade-Carving Lineage, you should know the precepts of our tradition! To kill one's fellow disciple will result in the stripping of one's Dao Foundation and the destruction of one's Dao..."
Before he could finish speaking...
She saw a mocking smile curl at the corner of the girl's mouth.
boom--
A muffled thud.
The head of the Great Sage Yunling suddenly exploded.
The next moment.
A single, dazzling light flashed by out of nowhere.
Golden light flowed, and flesh and blood emerged.
A new head was formed again in an instant.
Great Sage Yunling staggered back several steps, his face filled with shock and anger.
It was just one move.
It actually used up one of her Lamp-Lighting opportunities!
Such terrifying strength... even in my current state of Lamp-Lighting, I might not be its match.
But...
Compared to the lingering fear of escaping death, the humiliation of being crushed by fellow disciples was overwhelming.
My heart is filled with sorrow and regret.
If this girl in front of him really killed him, he would simply die and be done with it.
But if she were to violate the ironclad rules of the sect and be expelled from her master, becoming a rootless, drifting rogue cultivator...
Wouldn't that be a complete waste of the jade- Jade-Carving Lineage?!
