Justice from the heavens

"Hehehe, scared now?"

Qi Yun found it somewhat amusing to watch Yi Xuan slowly stand up from the cockpit seat. At this moment, Yi Xuan's Qi Yun expression was a stark contrast to his attitude when he attacked her earlier.

Qi Yun thoroughly enjoyed this feeling, and with a smile in his eyes, he pointed his sword at Yi Xuan, "Kneel down! Kneel before me obediently like a dog! Maybe I'll take pity on you!"

After saying that, Qi Yun looked at the crowd watching in the distance. "You too, kneel down!"

Yi Xuan, who was facing Qi Yun, did not speak, while the people in the distance were displaying a variety of human emotions.

Some had resolute expressions, as if they would rather die standing than live kneeling.

Some hesitated, perhaps because they didn't want to die in the Artifact Ruins, and they were also worried that Qi Yun would break his promise and go back on his word.

Some people couldn't contain themselves any longer and began whispering to those around them, "Senior brother! We're under someone else's roof now, look!"

But before he could finish speaking, he was startled back by the glare from his fellow disciple in front of him.

Looking at the expressions of those people in the distance, Qi Yun laughed heartily.

Then, as if suddenly realizing something, he looked at Yi Xuan and said, "By the way! You're from the Azure Cloud Sect, right? That's a pity! In this secret realm, I might spare everyone, but I can't let the Azure Cloud Sect scum go! Listen up, you people over there, bring the Azure Cloud Sect members over here. Whoever hands me over an Azure Cloud Sect disciple, I'll let them go immediately! I'll keep my word!"

Upon hearing Qi Yun's words, Yi Xuan's heart skipped a beat.

Despite Yi Xuan's earlier promise to protect the sect disciples who came, seeing that Yi Xuan couldn't deal with Qi Yun, and considering Qi Yun's words just now, Yi Xuan believed that even if no one in that group would make a move now, as time went on, someone would eventually lose their temper.

Never underestimate the evil in human nature. One second you're calling someone your brother, the next you're stabbing them in the back. Yi Xuan had seen countless such cases in his past life. You could say that the human heart is the most vulnerable to temptation.

Yi Xuan, who had been looking down, suddenly raised her head and said to Qi Yun with a smile, "What makes you think you have me completely under your control?"

"Oh?"

Qi Yun was surprised that Yi Xuan, who had lost the Black Tortoise, still had the courage to speak to him like that, and at the same time, the killing intent in his eyes was boiling.

Yi Xuan knew from the other's eyes that if he said a few more words, Qi Yun would definitely kill him. At this moment, the madness and bloodlust in Qi Yun's eyes were already showing signs of becoming uncontrollable.

Shaking his head helplessly, Yi Xuan thought to himself, "It seems becoming Artifact Spirit isn't a good thing, especially for the Artifact Spirit of such a peerless and deadly weapon. The violent and ferocious energy within the Law Artifact will constantly corrode the soul of the Artifact Spirit. Just look at Qi Yun's appearance; in less than two days, he's already gone mad to this extent."

Seeing that Qi Yun had already gripped the murder weapon tightly in his hand, Yi Xuan cautiously asked, "Could you let me say one more word?"

Seeing that this might be Yi Xuan's dying wish, the madness in Qi Yun's eyes subsided considerably. He nodded and said, "Hehehe, then I'll grant you this little wish!"

Yi Xuan raised his right hand, and a holographic projection appeared in front of Yi Xuan on the bracelet. Seeing what was displayed, Yi Xuan smirked at Qi Yun and said with a mocking expression, "Justice descends from the heavens!"

"You say..."

Qi Yun didn't understand what Yi Xuan meant. Just as she was about to ask, a huge beam of light enveloped her entire body.

As the person involved, Yi Xuan did not see the whole process clearly because she was not far from the other party.

But those people in the distance didn't fall for even a second.

As Yi Xuan spoke of divine justice, a point of light suddenly appeared above Qi Yun, followed by a pillar of light descending from the sky, completely enveloping Qi Yun.

The beam of light lasted for more than ten seconds before completely dissipating.

Waves of heat from the battlefield relentlessly assaulted the onlookers, with Yi Xuan feeling the heat most intensely.

This moment finally revealed the abundance of Yi Xuan's True Qi.

Yi Xuan's internal True Qi flowed out of his body incessantly, as if it were free, forming a True Qi shield around his body.

Although the energy level of True Qi is far inferior to that of True Essence, Yi Xuan's true True Qi is still immense. A normal True Essence shield is only a few millimeters thick, but at this moment, the True Qi shield around Yi Xuan is like a cotton quilt draped over him, hundreds of times thicker than a normal True Essence shield.

Only in this way can we ensure that Yi Xuan, being so close to Qi Yun, hasn't been scorched by the heat waves.

The so-called divine justice that just happened was actually Yi Xuan's laser emitter.

When Yi Xuan the plan to lure Qi Yun, Yi Xuan had already installed a laser emitter on the Firmament, allowing it to cruise and stand Firmament at high altitude.

Furthermore, just to be on the safe side, Yi Xuan also placed two more High-Grade Spirit Stone in the Firmament, in case the laser emitter's attack power was insufficient to take down Qi Yun in one go.

Unexpectedly, the laser emitter's attack power far exceeded Yi Xuan's imagination. Qi Yun couldn't even last a second under the laser's influence before retreating into the deadly blade.

After being exposed to the light for more than ten seconds, the murder weapon lying on the ground was covered in wounds, and in many places it had even begun to melt.

As the heatwave on the battlefield gradually dissipated, Yi Xuan, protected by his True Qi shield, approached the vicinity of the murderous blade. He saw that the blade had lost its previous luster and looked like an artifact that had just been unearthed from the ground. Moreover, its surface was pitted and uneven, and many places showed signs of melting and then solidifying.

However, Yi Xuan wouldn't feel at ease unless this thing was destroyed.

With a wave of his hand, one of the Pangu in the cave ran out, picked up the murder weapon from the ground, returned to the cave, and threw the weapon into the Temperature-Controlled Separation Furnace.

Seeing from the bracelet that the Butler had already begun refining the murder weapon, Yi Xuan felt somewhat relieved.

At this moment, the onlookers also came to Yi Xuan's side. The first to arrive were nine disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect. They stood with their backs to Yi Xuan, protecting Yi Xuan in the center, and looked at the other sect disciples with wary expressions.

Seeing the group like this, Yi Xuan felt both amused and touched.

"Alright, alright!" Yi Xuan patted the two disciples in front of him and said, "What are you doing? Do you think all the other sects in Southern Frontier are like the Gazing Immortal Sect? Move aside, move aside!"

Afterwards, Yi Xuan smiled and said to the disciples of the other sects, "Alright, the matter of the Gazing Immortal Sect has been resolved. You can all seek your own fortuitous opportunity again. I won't keep you any longer!"

After saying that, Yi Xuan ignored them and turned to enter the stone cave.
