Ch. 500 - Cold-Blooded Old Loli

Rumble—

Dark clouds covered the yellow sand for thousands of miles as silver snakes danced wildly and strong winds blew.

At the gate of Brilliance City, Lei Wanjun was at the front, wrapped in silver lightning, and behind him were several sect leaders from the Western Region.

They all frowned, looking at the miserable situation of the entire western district of Brilliance City, feeling very puzzled.

They could only see that something bad seemed to have happened to the Ghost Spirit Sect a day ago.

But no one knew who the culprit was behind this bad event and what the causes and consequences were.

Yue Xuanming, the flag-bearer of the Justice Division, looked around and finally glanced at Liang Zhu beside him. "Liang Zhu, do you know anything?"

Liang Zhu read his expression and knew that he wanted to ask him if it was his sixth brother who did it. Shrugging, he shook his head slightly. "I haven't heard him talk about that."

"..."

Yue Xuanming remained silent, then stopped thinking about it.

No matter who did it, it was a great thing for the immortals.

They had been worried that the Ghost Spirit Sect would use the Eastern Wall as a base and rely on the Demonic Ghost Formation to defend Brilliance City. In this way, even if they finally took the city, they would inevitably pay a very painful price.

But now, they might be able to take the city directly without fighting.

Just as everyone was thinking about this, a ray of lightning flashed in Lei Wanjun's eyes, and he raised his hand to signal.

Everyone reacted immediately, using spiritual energy to protect their bodies and tightening their spears and swords in their hands, preparing to confront the enemy.

Several blood-red streaks of light came rapidly from the east of the city and stopped abruptly.

Kong Xiangmo arrived with several Nascent Soul-stage cultivators of the Ghost Spirit Sect and used the city wall as a boundary, separating him from Lei Wanjun and the others.

Kong Xiangmo looked at Lei Wanjun with disdain, obviously thinking that Lei Wanjun wouldn't dare to fight him here.

There were still three Elders in the Deification stage in the city. Lei Wanjun and the few scumbags behind him were not to be feared!!

"Little Lei, I haven't seen you in a thousand years..."

Rumble—

As soon as he spoke, a silver thunderbolt suddenly fell and landed directly on Kong Xiangmo but was blocked by the bloody aura covering his body.

"Mr. Kong, try calling me again?"

"Oh, you are nothing more than a dog relying on someone else's power." Kong Xiangmo raised his head and narrowed his eyes, sneering. "That old woman, Red Moon, is not here. How dare you call me here..."

Halfway through his words, a cold wind suddenly blew in his face, blocking Kong Xiangmo's mouth.

The yellow sand shadowed by the dark clouds was suddenly stained by a silver-white light. Suddenly, a round moon as big as the whole sky broke through the clouds above, showing its icy horn.

Kong Xiangmo's lips and teeth chattered as his previous hope was dashed again.

The next moment, a duck-like voice came from the sky: 

—"The old woman is coming! The old woman is coming!!"

Lei Wanjun looked up and saw a golden-feathered parrot passing through the sky like a war eagle, and then spreading its wings toward the top of the clouds.

The next moment, a small mountain-like peak poked out of the clouds before slowly descending.

In the center of the platform of the floating mountain, there was a carpet made of spiritual silk. At the end of the carpet was a huge screen wall, and two jade chairs were placed in front of it.

Si Xuanji was wearing a blue-white dress, sitting on the slightly larger jade chair with her legs crossed, her jade feet swaying lightly. Pei Lianxue and Qiu Shuirou were on both sides of her.

Sitting on the other jade chair was Xiao Yunluo.

The two dragon horns on her forehead were decorated with crystal stones, and she was wearing a golden dragon robe, looking like a true "dragon girl".

However, the expression on her face was not as calm as Si Xuanji's. She was very nervous now and had no idea where to look.

On the side of Xiao Yunluo's chair was a black fox.

Hu Mu was wearing a dark black robe. Although his body had turned into human form, he had a fox head on his neck.

Xue Tianqiao, who was clinging to Hu Mu's shoulder, looked at the people around them, then looked at her master, and unconsciously compared him with Granny Si. 

She raised her paw to poke Hu Mu's face and expressed her feelings. "Master, you look so dumb. Look how cool Granny Si is."

"..."

Hu Mu turned his head and glanced at her but said nothing.

The floating rock slowly descended from the sky and stopped when Si Xuanji and the others were at the same height as Kong Xiangmo, and then remained suspended in the sky thousands of feet high.

When Lei Wanjun saw Si Xuanji coming, he quickly brought Liang Zhu and the others to the platform of the floating rock and bowed to her. "Matriarch, that man is Kong Xiangmo, the Great Elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect. He just called you an old woman..."

"..."

Si Xuanji turned her head and glanced at Lei Wanjun with a hint of irritation on her face. She always felt that Lei Wanjun couldn't wait for an opportunity to call her an "old woman".

She would settle the accounts after returning.

She shifted her gaze to Kong Xiangmo, her yin-yang eyes narrowing slightly.

With just this look, Kong Xiangmo almost lost control and fell from midair. He gritted his teeth and looked at Xiao Yunluo and the black fox beside her.

—Judging from the spiritual power, this black fox was probably the Demon King...

—Who was the girl beside him? What's with the dragon horns?

Kong Xiangmo trembled and suddenly saw Si Xuanji, still sitting on the chair, slightly raising her right palm.

Seeing Si Xuanji ready to attack, Kong Xiangmo took a deep breath, immediately condensed his demonic spirit on his palm, and then suddenly turned around, slashing a bloody arc behind him.

Swish—

He had brought the seven Nascent Soul-stage cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect with him, and in just a moment, their heads and Nascent Soul cores were split in half by Kong Xiangmo's demonic spirit.

A rain of blood fell and landed on the dumbfounded faces of many Ghost Spirit Sect disciples waiting by the city gate tower.

Kong Xiangmo gritted his teeth and took a deep breath, then used his spiritual power to hold the heads of the seven people, jumped over the city gate, and landed directly on the floating stone platform. Kneeling on one knee, he displayed the heads of the seven Elders of the Ghost Spirit Sect in front of him and cupped his hands in salute. "Greetings, Immortal Matriarch Red Moon?!!"

?

Lei Wanjun and several Western Region sect masters were all stunned as if they saw the sun rising from the west.

Si Xuanji frowned, put down her right hand, and propped her cheek on it, then asked in a cold voice, "What are you doing?"

Kong Xiangmo glanced up at Si Xuanji's childish face. After briefly arranging his thoughts, he answered. "After helping Mr. Liang break the Demonic Ghost Formation of the city, I have been waiting for the immortals to come..."

"..."

Except for Si Xuanji and Qiu Shuirou, everyone present was dumbfounded hearing this. Lei Wanjun cast a look at Kong Xiangmo as if he was seeing some piece of poop.

Everyone was questioning at the same time: was this person really the Great Elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect?

The Great Elder of a great sect must be someone with outstanding achievements and completely trusted by the sect master.

When Lei Wanjun was in the Foundation Building stage, he was already following Si Xuanji on her expeditions to the East. If he was captured by the demonic cultivators one day, he would never become a traitor.

Lei Wanjun stepped forward and stroked his beard. "Mr. Kong, you are a cultivator in the late stage of Deification... Tsk tsk..."

"..."

Kong Xiangmo gritted his teeth. He was not a Buddha and naturally felt very uncomfortable when he heard this. However, he realized that it would be a fool's errand for him to defend Brilliance City now.

He didn't have the slightest hope.

He had been able to become the Great Elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect because of his capacity to adjust in any situation.

But now, his crime of colluding with the immortals had almost become a foregone conclusion.

Then, he might as well go with the flow and simply surrender to the immortal cultivators. In this way, the Immortal Matriarch might even spare his life.

After all, if he lost Brilliance City and fled back to the Ghost Spirit Sect, he would die, and if he fought with the immortal cultivators from the Western Region, he would also die...

He had cultivated for so many years to reach the late stage of Deification, and he couldn't bear to die here.

As for reputation, was it more important than being alive?

He was now in the late stage of the Deification, and it was not impossible for him to break through the Void Returning stage. After another hundred years or even several hundred years, when he became a cultivator in the Void Returning stage, those bad rumors would naturally disappear.

Before Red Moon Matriarch broke through the Void Returning, all the immortal cultivators accused her of being narrow-minded.

But after she entered the Void Returning, who dared to scold her?

"Surrender!! Surrender!!"

The parrot's voice broke the silence.

Si Xuanji glanced at it, then tilted her head to support her cheek and asked, "Who is Mr. Liang?"

"..."

Kong Xiangmo was stunned by this question. Wasn't the one called "Liang Liu" sent by Red Moon? After all, he had the Nine Dragons Heavenly Seal.

"Mr. Liang has never told me his real name. I only know the two names 'Liang Xiaoliu' and 'Liang Liu'." 

At this, Lei Wanjun and several other sect leaders almost simultaneously turned their heads to look at Liang Zhu standing in the corner. 

Liang Zhu felt a little flustered, but his face remained as calm as usual. 

My Liang family is really promising...

Tsk, that sixth brother...

With a smile, Si Xuanji turned to look at Qiu Shuirou. "Shuirou, is there a cultivator named Liang Liu in the Western Region?"

However, before Qiu Shuirou opened her mouth to answer, Pei Lianxue on the other side pouted, looked at Si Xuanji as if she was a fool, and muttered softly, "Isn't it my brother? Even I know it."

"..."

Si Xuanji was rendered speechless. She raised his hand and grabbed Pei Lianxue's face. Even though Pei Lianxue's face was deformed, she still didn't cry out in pain; although, she felt a little aggrieved, not knowing why she pulled her face.

Si Xuanji looked at her stoic face, shook her head, and looked back at Kong Xiangmo. "Where is Liang Liu now?"

Kong Xiangmo hesitated before replying, "Mr. Liang... has gone to the Eastern Region."

"...What a pity." Si Xuanji looked at the Western Region sect leaders behind Lei Wanjun. "Why didn't I know that the Immortal Family has such a courageous disciple? Do any of you know this Liang Liu..."

When she said this, Si Xuanji's eyes fell on Liang Zhu, causing him to stiffen.

Liang Zhu knew that his sixth brother was engaged to Xiao Yunluo, and he was considered the son-in-law of Red Moon Matriarch. Knowing this, he also understood what this look meant.

It was nothing more than wanting to give his sixth brother some credit.

Thus, Liang Zhu walked out of the corner and cupped his hands. "Reporting to the Immortal Matriarch. He should be my sworn sixth brother, the Young Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect, Ye Anping. Liang Liu and Liang Xiaoliu are his commonly used aliases." 

"So..." Si Xuanji pretended to be surprised. "No wonder... It turned out to be Young Master Ye, which is not surprising. However, he was able to defeat Brilliance City by himself, which is beyond my expectations. Yunluo, your fiancé is really amazing..."

?

Xiao Yunluo, who was sitting on a chair beside her, froze. She felt that the "amazing" Si Xuanji mentioned was a double entendre.

But in this situation, she couldn't say anything, so she simply nodded. "Master, you are too kind..."

"Hmph..." Si Xuanji narrowed her eyes, smiling. "Rewards and punishments should be equally fair. This merit must be rewarded..."

This was said to Lei Wanjun and the leaders of the various sects in the Western Region.

Ye Anping was always leaving after his work was done, hiding his merits and fame, and ordinary people never knew what he did in secret.

Now he was also her cultivation partner, how could he not have a status?

However, she really did not expect that Ye Anping could make Kong Xiangmo surrender without a fight...

The yin-yang eyes slowly fell back on Kong Xiangmo's lowered head. Si Xuanji pondered for a while and smiled. "That Seven Ghost's judgment is still as bad as it was a thousand years ago. How can someone like you be an Elder of a sect?" 

"..."

"Even worse than this Lei brat."

?

Lei Wanjun blinked, but when he saw Si Xuanji looking at him, he said nothing, pretending not to hear her.

Si Xuanji paused. She looked at the situation in Brilliance City, raised her hand, grabbed the parrot standing on the bird stand, and asked again, "You said that it was Master Liang who broke the formation here."

"Yes." Kong Xiangmo's cheeks flushed a little, and he deliberately emphasized. "I also helped Master Liang break..."

As Si Xuanji's fingers moved slightly, the parrot held in her hand interrupted directly. "Bullshit!! Bullshit!!"

Kong Xiangmo was stunned.

Si Xuanji narrowed her eyes. "See, that's what the parrot said."

As she spoke, Si Xuanji's little hand supporting her cheek stretched out, and a silver-white spiritual light appeared in her palm. Seeing that Si Xuanji still wanted to silence him, Kong Xiangmo panicked.

"Immortal Red Moon!! I also..."

Swoosh—

Boom—!

A golden spiritual light erupted from the tender palm and, in an instant, penetrated Kong Xiangmo's chest, then directly pierced through the city gate on the west wall, rolling away rubble and sand, leaving a nearly hundred-foot gully wide on the streets of Brilliance City.

Si Xuanji waved her hand to push the moon in the sky back to its original position and called. "Lei Wanjun."

Lei Wanjun stepped forward with a bow. "Here..."

Si Xuanji slowly closed her eyes, and in a cold loli voice, she gave the command, "Order the disciples of all sects to massacre the city."

"Yes, Ma'am!"
