Chapter 517
"A trivial skill."
Xiao Minghuang snorted disdainfully, flicked her finger, and a wisp of starlight sword light shot out, striking the golden spear directly.
"Clang!"
The sound of clashing weapons shattered the heavens and earth.
The next second.
The golden spear suddenly shattered, and a golden divine spear, gleaming with sharpness, emerged, tearing through the void and stabbing towards Xiao Minghuang's chest.
"Clang!"
Xiao Minghuang flicked his finger again, and the golden spear shattered instantly.
"Boom!"
Immediately afterwards, she reached out with her jade-like hand.
A massive, sky-covering seal of stars suddenly materialized, carrying immense power that instantly enveloped the entire world, crushing towards the Daluo Heavenly Venerable.
"Bang!"
"Pfft!"
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable had no way to avoid it and could only use his magic weapon to block it in front of his face.
However, it was shattered without any hindrance.
Immediately afterwards, the Star Seal fell and smashed into his body.
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable let out a muffled groan, his figure retreating rapidly, spraying blood into the void.
He raised his right fist to resist, but felt a tremendous force pouring down on him, making his bones crack and pop.
"Puff--"
Final.
His body couldn't take it anymore; he spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed heavily to the ground.
"Hiss--"
Everyone gasped.
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable has been defeated!
With just one move, the Daluo Heavenly Venerable was defeated!
The scene that everyone imagined—two immortals fighting for a long time, reaching the edge of the universe, with chaotic energy surging with every move, even obliterating the Great Dao—did not occur at all.
It's just a very simple move.
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable has already been defeated!
"Cough cough cough--"
"You... how could you...?"
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable spat out a mouthful of blood mist, clutched his chest, and stood up. His eyes were filled with intense fear and dread, and his mind felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, chilling him to the bone.
How could the Ziwei Immortal Venerable be stronger than me?
That's absolutely impossible!
Even if she achieved the status of an Immortal Venerable, how many years had he cultivated?
How many years has the Ziwei Fairy cultivated?
"Nothing is impossible." Xiao Minghuang's pretty face remained calm, her tone icy. "I've come today only to seek justice!"
"You..."
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable's face was filled with rage.
"Please speak freely, sir."
The Taishang Heavenly Venerable interrupted the Daluo Heavenly Venerable and said calmly.
"Senior brother..."
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable was filled with resentment, but ultimately he held back.
Because he knew that the current Ziwei Immortal Venerable was no longer the same as before.
Even if he personally intervened, he couldn't do anything to the Ziwei Immortal Venerable.
"Not long ago... something happened to me."
Xiao Minghuang looked at the Taishang Heavenly Venerable and calmly said, "A mysterious Celestial Venerable has traveled through time and space, and actually intends to harm my daughter."
"And they almost succeeded."
"Luckily, I arrived in time and rescued my daughter; otherwise, she would have been in grave danger!"
Xiao Minghuang fixed her gaze on the Taishang Heavenly Venerable and asked, word by word, "Do you have any clues about this?"
Upon hearing this, the Taishang Heavenly Venerable raised an eyebrow.
"Ziwei Immortal Venerable, are you saying that the Heavenly Court orchestrated the assassination of Lady Ling?"
Xiao Minghuang simply stared at him without responding.
"Don't make baseless accusations! What evidence do you have?!"
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable rebuked angrily.
"I have no evidence, but I would like to ask, where is the Wuji Heavenly Venerable of the Heavenly Court now?"
Xiao Minghuang's gaze was deep and unfathomable.
Upon hearing this, the hearts of the celestial beings in Heaven jumped, and their expressions became uneasy.
"No way? Could it really be that the Great Immortal Wuji assassinated the daughter of the Ziwei Immortal Venerable?"
"Why... why assassinate the daughter of the Ziwei Immortal Venerable? Wouldn't it be simpler to just assassinate the Ziwei Immortal Venerable himself?"
"Could it be that the daughter of the Ziwei Immortal Venerable has something special about her?"
The celestial beings in Heaven were discussing it animatedly.
"The Wuji Heavenly Venerable is currently in seclusion and is not receiving guests. Please understand!"
The Taishang Heavenly Venerable said calmly.
"Snort!"
Xiao Minghuang snorted coldly, "Seclusion? I bet he's just recuperating from his injuries!"
As she spoke, she waved her hand, and an image materialized in the air—the scene from when Xiao Xingruo and Li Hongying were attacked.
However, in this scene, the mist that had been obscuring the mysterious man's face has now dissipated, revealing his true identity—undoubtedly the Wuji Heavenly Venerable!
"Wuji!!"
When he saw the person in the picture clearly, the Daluo Heavenly Venerable's eyes widened and he exclaimed in shock.
"I've long heard that the Chaos Wuji Immortal Mirror in the hands of the Wuji Heavenly Venerable has the power to travel through time and space and reverse the universe. In order to cover his tracks, he deliberately traveled to other time and space and then traveled back, all to sever the cause and effect and prevent anyone from noticing. Unfortunately, if you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place!"
Xiao Minghuang said coldly.
A hint of mockery flashed in her eyes, and then with a wave of her hand, the scene suddenly collapsed, turning into endless dust that fell softly from mid-air.
"Ziwei Immortal Venerable, do you think you've already won?"
"Don't forget, this is the Heavenly Court!"
"The Daluo Heavenly Venerable said in a deep voice."
"I know, so your Heavenly Court must give me an explanation!"
Xiao Minghuang spoke coldly.
What kind of explanation do you want?
The Taishang Heavenly Venerable narrowed his eyes, a chilling glint flashing within them.
"It's very simple."
Xiao Minghuang approached slowly, saying indifferently, "Hand over the Wuji Heavenly Venerable."
"Presumptuous!"
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable roared, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at Xiao Minghuang, and shouted, "Ziwei Immortal Venerable, don't push your luck!"
"If you're not convinced, you're welcome to fight."
"Whether it's you or anyone else, anyone who tries to harm my child will pay a heavy price!"
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable was seething with anger.
The dignified ruler of the Heavenly Court is being threatened by a junior? This is utterly outrageous!
The Taishang Heavenly Venerable also frowned, looking intently at Xiao Minghuang.
"I'll count to three. If you still don't show sincerity, then don't blame me."
"One!"
"Two..."
Xiao Minghuang's expression was cold as she said indifferently, "Since you insist on protecting Wuji, then I will place the blame on you!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
Xiao Minghuang stretched out her slender white hand and pointed it towards the void.
Rumble--
A vast and boundless galaxy materialized out of thin air, stretching across the starry sky, with boundless Power of Stars surging forth.
"Not good!"
The Daluo Heavenly Venerable's heart pounded wildly.
At that moment, he felt as if the surrounding void was imprisoned, and the entire starry sky became viscous.
Unable to break free!
"Stop your arrogance! We're coming!"
As the voice rang out.
Swish swish!!!
One after another, figures emerged from the void, hovering around the Taishang Heavenly Venerable and the Daluo Heavenly Venerable, each emanating astonishing fluctuations.
These were none other than twenty Celestial Venerables from various realms!
More than twenty celestial beings appeared together, as if the sky could not contain them all, and even the void resounded with crackling sounds.
The pressure brought by the starry river instantly vanished.
Until this point.
The Taishang Heavenly Venerable finally revealed a faint smile, and seemed to relax completely.
"Ziwei Immortal Venerable, I'm giving you a chance. Kneel down and confess your sins now, and I might consider pardoning your grave offense of disrespect."
The Taishang Heavenly Venerable said calmly.
His voice wasn't loud, but it sounded like he had the victory firmly in his grasp, leaving no room for rebuttal.
"Kneel down and admit your mistake?"
A mocking smile appeared on Xiao Minghuang's lips.
A cold, icy glint flashed in her eyes.
"They're nothing but a bunch of chickens and dogs, good-for-nothings!"
"You're asking for it!"
A celestial being roared angrily.
As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling divine light emanated from his body, making him appear like a god. He stepped into the air and threw a punch at Xiao Minghuang, causing the void to shatter instantly.
