258: Chapter 258 You're Really Despicable

This attack, surging like a volcanic eruption, slammed into the thousand-foot giant python skeleton. The raging flames instantly illuminated the entire Hundred Flowers Secret Realm, as if they intended to consume everything between heaven and earth.

The scorching flames raged mercilessly, not only searing the entire sea of flowers but also igniting the fear and anger within them, causing the flower sea to boil like an angry ocean.

"Hmm... that guy really had a backup plan. I truly hope these flowers can withstand this terrifying demonic flame; it would be best if they exhausted all of his power!"

Ye Xuan, hiding in the void and observing the battle, couldn't help but be slightly taken aback when he saw the demonic flame, which shone as dazzlingly as a small sun, and then muttered to himself in his heart.

Accompanied by bursts of earth-shattering roars.

"Boom—"

And the crisp, ear-piercing sound of shattering.

"Crack—"

The ten-thousand-foot-high demonic flame slammed fiercely onto the huge demonic python skeleton.

"Hum—"

In an instant, the void shattered like fragile glass, endless dark rifts spread out, and the entire secret realm trembled violently.

The heavily damaged giant python skeleton let out a painful roar, a sound so deafening it resonated through the heavens.

It struggled fiercely, its body's originally dazzling blood-gold mystical light now dimmed by the demonic flames, and even its tail, dozens of feet long, turned to ash in the blink of an eye.

However, despite being severely injured, the giant python skeleton refused to give up. It bared its fangs, roared, and charged at the enemy again without hesitation.

"Damn it! The talisman bestowed upon me by the ancestor can only unleash a Great Saint-level strike, yet it still cannot destroy this accursed beast!"

Watching the demonic python skeleton charge again, Ye Xin's face was filled with shock and unwillingness.

Ye Xin's expression became tense, and he quickly activated another talisman.

In an instant, a ten-thousand-foot-high raging demonic flame surged out like a volcanic eruption, slamming straight into the giant python skeleton.

"Boom—"

The entire sea of flowers trembled, and the Weeping Blood Secret Realm also swayed slightly.

The thousand-foot-long giant python skeleton was once again sent flying by the violent demonic flames. The blood-gold holy runes were instantly burned away by the scorching demonic flames, and the originally incredibly hard skeleton was now more than half shattered.

"Roar—"

With a shrill roar, the holy might emanating from the demonic python skeleton had completely vanished this time, as if it were a candle flame about to extinguish, flickering and unstable.

"Damn cursed beast, you won't even rest in peace after death! Must I really exhaust all the talismans bestowed by the ancestor on this useless thing!"

Ye Xin frowned tightly, his expression very unsightly.

He cursed at the stubborn demonic python skeleton before him, determined in his heart to activate the last talisman in his hand and destroy it completely.

However, just as Ye Xin was about to make a move, a sound came.

"Creak—"

The thousand-foot-long giant python, which had still been struggling moments ago, suddenly and without warning fell apart into countless bones, turning into ashes in the blink of an eye, drifting down into the sea of flowers.

"Whew—"

Seeing this scene, Ye Xin's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he let out a long sigh:

"This evil obstacle has finally been reduced to ashes!"

Seeing the demonic python skeleton finally turn to ash, a look of relief appeared on Ye Xin's face.

"Young Master, run! I can no longer hold on!"

Suddenly, a shrill and exhausted cry reached Ye Xin's ears.

He turned his head abruptly and saw his loyal Dao Protector, Aunt Xue, trapped in a heavy encirclement, tightly surrounded by nearly a hundred ferocious-looking flower demons.

She was covered in wounds, her clothes stained red with blood, and her originally powerful aura had become incredibly weak.

"Aunt Xue, come here to me quickly!"

Ye Xin was so anxious his heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife. He clutched the talisman tightly and shouted loudly to Aunt Xue in the distance.

However, Aunt Xue was now unable to escape. Coughing violently, she said with difficulty: "Cough, cough... Young... Master, I, old You, fear I cannot escape. Please activate the talisman immediately, do everything you can to save your life, and after returning to the sect, you must marry Saintess Baili Linger! Only in this way will our sacrifices not be in vain..."

Before she could finish speaking, a huge blood-colored flower demon extended a sharp, hook-like claw and ruthlessly pierced through Aunt Xue's heart.

In an instant, Aunt Xue's vitality rapidly faded. With her last ounce of strength, she let out a desperate cry toward Ye Xin.

"Detestable flower demons, die!"

Seeing his Dao Protector, who was like family, meet such a tragic end, Ye Xin was heartbroken and filled with rage.

He widened his eyes, staring fixedly at the murderer who killed Aunt Xue, a raging fire igniting in his heart.

Anger caused Ye Xin to lose his reason, and he did not hesitate to activate the last, incredibly precious talisman in his hand.

As the talisman's light shone, an earth-shattering power suddenly erupted.

The surrounding space seemed to be torn apart; wild winds howled, and lightning flashed and thundered.

Those originally arrogant and domineering flower demons fled in terror before this terrifying power, but it was too late.

Ye Xin's anger and sorrow turned into endless killing intent, sweeping in all directions.

"What a powerful, monstrous demonic flame; it has actually caused the entire Hundred Flowers Secret Realm to tremble incessantly!"

On the outskirts of the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm, the black-robed Duan Tu looked up at the sky, his face full of shock as he gazed at the third wave of towering demonic flames emanating from the heart of the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm.

"That demonic flame looks like the signature secret technique of the Demon Dao Holy Land in Banzhou—the Heaven-Burning Demonic Flame!"

The Dao Protector Zui Li, standing to the side, said respectfully to Young Master Zui Wujin in front of him.

"I estimate that the one releasing the demonic flames must be those two people who arrived at the Ancient City of Sin a month ago! What exactly is their background?"

Young Master Zui Wujin was thoughtful, then immediately turned to ask Zui Luan beside him: "How is the investigation into the identities of those two going?"

In fact, from the moment Ye Xin and Ye You stepped into the City of Sin, they had already been targeted by the City Lord's Mansion's informants.

These two people had outstanding temperaments; it would have been difficult not to attract attention.

"Replying to you, my Lord, after multiple investigations by my subordinates, it has been verified. The black-robed youth is Ye Xin, a true disciple of the Alchemy Holy Sect, and that middle-aged noblewoman is Ye You of the Ye family, the Saintly Orthodoxy behind the Alchemy Holy Sect!"

Elder Zui Li cupped his hands toward Young Master Zui Wujin and reported in detail.

"Oh? So that's how it is... to think it's a true disciple of the Alchemy Holy Sect."

Hearing this information, Young Master Zui Wujin's mouth curled up slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.

"Father has repeatedly warned me that the god spirit flower must not be touched, especially those with many petals; they must absolutely not be picked! Now Ye Xin and Ye You are truly in for bad luck. Those are existences with great terror; if you pick them, you'll lose a layer of skin even if you don't die!"
