If anyone asked Lin Jiu what sort of person the Sword Monarch Wei Liang was, then the only thing she could think of was drama queen and provocateur .
This was not how he was written in the book!
Even when he and Liu Qing Yin both formed a couple and ascended together, he was still his aloof self and he would only inadvertently reveal a touch of tenderness .
How did this icy cold man completely deteriorate in front of her?
Lin Jiu stared blankly at the man who talked nonsense, before Wei Liang dragged her back into his arms once more .
Ji Yuan has come!
Holding Lin Jiu, Wei Liang took a step forward .
His flying sword sliced through the sky one step ahead of the others in a wide ray of bright light, aimed straight at the great demonic cultivator in the sky .
Liu Qing Yin was still recuperating, and Mu Rong Chen was protecting her while blocking the sneak attacks from behind for Wei Liang . He knew that Wei Liang was injured and didn’t have the advantage against a full-powered Ji Yuan . Demonic cultivators did not rely on weapons, but rather the mind . It was most difficult to resist attacks from demonic cultivators when one’s nascent spirit was damaged .
Ji Yuan was still tens of thousands of feet away, but for top powerhouses like them, this was equivalent to being face-to-face .
A scarlet demonic wave struck from afar as if a red tide suddenly appeared between heaven and earth .
When it reached three thousand feet away, the scarlet demonic wave shot up and condensed into a terrifying red skull in the air . It opened its big mouth and swallowed Wei Liang’s flying sword in one gulp .
The red skull attacked without slowing down, and in the blink of an eye, it had gotten close .
Neither Mu Rong Chun nor Liu Qing Yin dared to slow down . They immediately sacrificed their best moves . A full moon accompanied by begonias blossoming in the sky resisted the attacks of the demonic cultivator .
When the jaw of the red skull was almost hit by the two sword shadows, it separated like countless worms scattering .
Wei Liang, on the other hand, brought Lin Jiu with him to face the direction of Ji Yuan’s attack . With a flick of his sleeve, he froze the attacking red skull and it shattered into fine ice particles before falling down from the air .
“The left?” He looked down indifferently at Lin Jiu .
Lin Jiu was currently mesmerized by the scene before her .
After the scarlet skull was frozen by Wei Liang in mid-air, it didn’t look scary in the slightest . A radiant red color ran through the ice beneath the sunlight . Walking underneath it would be like walking inside of a dreamy ice castle with red light refracting everywhere .
“It looks so pretty!” Lin Jiu cried .
Wei Liang’s mouth twitched . “This…looks pretty?”
Lin Jiu nodded repeatedly .
“…”
His wife really did have some unique aesthetics .
After a few steps, they arrived opposite of the demonic cultivator Ji Yuan .
Ji Yuan was a beautiful-looking man dressed in red with lips scarlet as blood . He looked shockingly demonic . When she thought of the descriptions of what Ji Yuan did to Liu Qing Yin after kidnapping her, all the heat, the deep pants, the flexibility of his ***, as well as the Blood Puppet…Lin Jiu’s face quietly turned hot .
After remembering the plot, Lin Jiu looked at this old veteran demonic cultivator in front of her, and Lin Jiu felt that every part of him was super sexy .
Calm down, calm down! Lin Jiu shook her head and stared at Ji Yuan’s left hand . Both his hands were hidden in his wide red sleeves so she couldn’t see anything unusual .
When Ji Yuan saw Wei Liang, he lifted his sleeve and saluted him like a young man performing on a stage . “Sword Monarch . I’ve heard so much about you,” he said, his voice dripping with evil .
When he uttered the word “sword”, Wei Liang’s flying sword suddenly sprung from his side . The blade hidden behind tinkling falling ice crystals, it was like a white thread that was cutting straight for Ji Yuan’s left arm .
Ji Yuan’s salute was unfettered, but blood-colored skulls burst open one after another in the emptiness behind him, resisting Wei Liang’s sword until Ji Yuan finished his salute . By the time he said the last word, there were already hundreds of illusory skulls under Wei Liang’s sword .
After the pleasantries, Ji Yuan’s figure looked like it was under the water, swaying gently and disappearing in place .
The flying sword cut through the air and slashed into the ground .
“Haha, hahahaha… . ” Evil laughter surrounded them . Countless echoes stirred up in the air as his voice bounced around the falling ice crystals . “The techniques of the Sword Monarch…has not improved, but rather deteriorated!”
Lin Jiu’s vision suddenly became blurry . She blinked her eyes and looked around .
She saw a red shadow hidden beneath the falling pieces of the shattered skull, leaving a strange line wherever it went, outlining a pattern similar to a hexagram .
The ice crystals continued to fall, but the red pattern did not move and remained in place . This strange combination of movement and stillness caused Lin Jiu’s heart to darken at the sign of a bad premonition .
“Be careful, he seems to be setting up a magic array,” Lin Jiu warned .

Wei Liang’s thin lips curved up slightly .
The wandering and mysterious voice of Ji Yuan suddenly came from above them . “Ten thousand…demons…heart…execution…”
It was as if his voice was materializing and merging into the red lines . The red lines quickly solidified and created a huge crimson array that hung ethereally above the heads of Wei Liang and Lin Jiu .
Wei Liang’s fingers came together, and the flying sword embedded in the ground lifted off in a clank, cutting through the red lines! The sword that seemed like it could break through the chaos of heaven and earth passed straight through the array without any hindrance .
“Heh,” Ji Yuan laughed . “No need to waste your efforts, Sword Monarch . This is something I’ve been preparing for many days just for you . All that was missing was the opportunity… Tsk, if I had known you had regressed to this state, I would not have spent so much effort . ”
Scarlet light spun around in the array as the nodes were activated one after the other . As the light flittered past, the array flickered wildly like a broken light bulb .
The flashing dazzled Lin Jiu . As soon as she made a noise, she felt a large hand covering her face .
Her vision went dark, and the cold, dark fragrance which belonged to Wei Liang slowly invaded her senses .
Lin Jiu blinked her covered eyes and felt her long eyelashes brush along his calloused palm .
Her heart suddenly felt much calmer .
Huh? Hold on!

Lin Jiu suddenly realized that the Red Lotus was spinning faster and faster in her consciousness . Ethereal threads of red were introduced into her consciousness and were devoured by the Lotus like nourishment…
From afar, she heard shouting .
“Master!”
“Master!”
Mu Rong Chun and Liu Qing Yin took care of the rest of the demons and rushed over to the red array .

Liu Qing Yin was so anxious that she immediately launched a Full Moon Clear Light . Another round moon exploded on the crimson formation, yet it was untouched like it was an illusion, not harmed in the slightest .
Mu Rong Chun’s face sank . “This is…pure intention!”
Liu Qing Yin drew in a breath of cold air . “An attack that only targets the primordial spirit?! When Master fought the Demon Lord, his primordial spirit was severely injured! Ji Yuan is taking advantage of that! What do we do!”
She didn’t hesitate to crash towards the array .
Mu Rong Chun didn’t have the time to grab her and could only watch as Liu Qing Yin flung herself to the outermost red line . Then, it was like she was stuck in a muddy swamp and unable to move in the slightest .
Her face instantly turned pale as pained grunts escaped from between her teeth .
Mu Rong Chun wanted to yank her back, but as soon as his fingers touched Liu Qing Yin, he felt countless cold needles of ice pierce straight into the depths of his soul . Even though he was determined, he also subconsciously loosened his grip on Liu Qing Yin’s hand .
Mu Rong Chun wiped his forehead and raised his fingers to summon an evergreen jade spirit vine . Enduring the pain in his skull, he yanked Liu Qing Yin back .
She was faring far worse than him .
He had almost lost his mind in pain just by touching the array through her body, so how much worse was it for Liu Qing Yin who rushed headfirst into it?
The immense pain had temporarily blinded her and caused her to bite her lip so hard that it gushed blood .
Trembling and struggling, she stood up and continued to pounce towards the crimson array .
Behind the flickering crimson light was her beloved! Just touching it a little outside hurt to that extent, so how must it feel to endure it inside!
“Senior Brother,” Liu Qing Yin gritted through her teeth . “This array can’t actually stop anyone! It just hurts too much and caused me to retreat . You, send me in!”
Mu Rong Chun’s pupils shrank and he shouted, “Do you want to die?! If you force yourself in, you’ll die of pain! Trust Master, both of them will break through successfully!”

Hearing that was even more unbearable for Liu Qing Yin . “Just him alone was bad enough! And he now has to protect that Lin Jiu as well! With his temperament, he certainly would not have left her behind…That is just how he is! Senior Brother, this will be the first time that I ask for your help, so just help me! Send me in there! If you do not agree, I’ll have to get down on my knees and beg you!”
Mu Rong Chun blinked his eyes . He looked up to the heavens and sighed . “Alright . ”
The anxiety he felt in his heart right now was actually no less than what Liu Qing Yin was feeling . He knew full well that Master Wei Liang’s primordial spirit was severely damaged after the battle with the Demon Lord . It simply could not be healed in a matter of days . Ji Yuan had intentionally prepared this powerful formation to deal with him . Whether or not his Master would be able to make it out was not certain yet!
Mu Rong Chun made up his mind .

“Junior Sister . Use the Waning Moon Style and I will push you in . ”
Liu Qing Yin was slightly confused, but she didn’t have the time to think about it . Following his words, she turned around and sent out a single target move with great lethality .
Then she saw Mu Rong Chun’s vines climb along Liu Qing Yin’s waning moon . With a shake of his sword, the spirit vine tensed . Using the waning moon as a bow and the spirit vine as a string, and with his body as an arrow, he shot himself straight towards the crimson array!
Liu Qing Yin covered her cherry-red lips so as not to let out a scream .
Mu Rong Chun used that irresistible force to break through the crimson array and fell straight through the illusory array .
“Senior Brother—” Liu Qing Yin shouted at his figure with a cry . “No!”
Mu Rong Chun could no longer hear Liu Qing Yin’s voice .
After passing through the red formation, he was in so much pain that he lost consciousness . Everything in front of him slow down . He couldn’t even tell if it was a red or green light flashing in front of his eyes .
This Pure Intent only appeared in legends . Simply put, it was a tug-of-war between the primordial spirits of both sides without the use of any spiritual energy or strength of both sides .
Even though demonic cultivators cultivated intent, the strength of their primordial spirit actually wasn’t that great . They need only rely on spiritual energy to increase the effects of their attacks . However, as long as they used spiritual energy, it would be grasped by other cultivators . For a demonic cultivator, this was a problem without a solution .
Unless they could cultivate pure intent .
The Ji Yuan in front of him had comprehended such a masterstroke that made the other cultivators pale at the sight of it .
Even though Mu Rong Chun had his feet on the ground, his entire body was muddled and dazed as if he was still floating in the air .
When the pain got to the extremes, he could no longer recognize the pain . All he could feel was the endless damage being done to him through all the buzzing in his mind .
“Can’t…let…Ji Yuan…hurt…anyone…I…won’t die…with regret…”
Just as Mu Rong Chun had forgotten everything, the entire world suddenly went quiet when he decided to self-destruct his primordial spirit to wound Ji Yuan .
A disgruntled female voice rang out in front of him in a crisp and clear voice . “Don’t mess around!”
Mu Rong Chun strained to gather his sight .
Amidst the dazzling red, a fair and beautiful woman appeared before him like the Goddess of the Nine Heavens descending .
