First slay the Dragon Court, then slaughter the Jade Pool

"Senior Sister, they seem to be catching up..."

"Damn Dragon Court, they actually ran away just like that!"

Since Su Ming's previous stance had caused the people of the Jade Pool Holy Land to lose out on the competition for the candle dragon blood, they had completely harbored a grudge against him.

However, they hadn't gone far, but were quietly tracking from behind.

That was why they were able to strike at such an opportune moment to rescue Long Ao and the others.

Originally, according to the plans of Li Pinger and the others, they would save Long Ao at the most critical moment and then join forces with him to kill Su Ming in one fell swoop.

As it turned out, after Long Ao was saved, he actually turned around and sold them out to run away.

They had seen the scene of Su Ming fighting the entire Dragon Court Dragon Clan team earlier.

Since even the Dragon Court couldn't beat Su Ming, they naturally had no chance of winning either.

So right now, the most suitable way for them to save their lives was to flee.

But no matter how they ran, it was impossible to outrun Su Ming's pursuit.

Seeing the distance between the two sides gradually shortening and Su Ming's 'Chaos Domain' covering them, Li Pinger felt things were going south.

"Junior Sisters, prepare to form a Formation against the enemy!"

The group that was originally fleeing stopped in their tracks upon hearing this. They joined forces to form a Formation, with Li Pinger as the core, waiting for Su Ming's arrival.

A few seconds later, Su Ming and Shen Ming arrived one after another.

Looking at Li Pinger in front of him, Su Ming didn't waste any words.

'Chaos Fire' coiled around his weapon, and then a sky full of blade shadows, engulfed in raging flames, struck toward Li Pinger.

Facing Su Ming's all-out attack, Li Pinger was currently terrified.

How could an attack of this level be delivered by a Cultivator at the sixth level of the Void Realm?

Every one of Su Ming's moves contained killing intent; Li Pinger could only brace herself to meet the attacks.

"Young Master Su, there might be some misunderstanding between us. Why don't we stop for now? Continuing to fight will only benefit outsiders..."

Hearing this, Su Ming's offensive stopped instantly.

Just as Li Pinger was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Su Ming suddenly charged in front of her at an even faster speed.

"Senior Sister, watch out!" a Junior Sister beside Li Pinger warned.

Black-purple 'Chaos Fire' swept past them, and the subsequent impact made everyone in the Formation feel as if their internal organs were shifting.

If they hadn't combined the strength of ten people into one through the Formation, this single blow would have been enough to turn them to ash.

"You bunch of sluts, do you think you're worthy of claiming a connection with me?!"

"Young Master Su, you're being so outspoken. Do you completely disregard our Jade Pool Holy Land?!"

"What the hell is your Jade Pool Holy Land?! Even if I hacked all ten of you to death right in front of Fairy Yan, she wouldn't dare to utter a single word!"

Facing such a furious Su Ming, Li Pinger finally panicked at this moment.

However, as Shen Ming joined the battle, even with the ten of them working together, they still found it difficult to withstand the onslaught of this master and pet duo.

"Young Master Su!" Li Pinger said in an extremely seductive tone, "I have realized my mistake. Please let us go, Young Master. We are willing to become your slaves and concubines, to serve at your side..."

"To save your lives, you can even say things like this now? That wasn't your attitude before."

"Earlier, I was blind and failed to recognize your greatness. Please do not take offense, Young Master Su..."

Just as Li Pinger finished speaking, Su Ming struck in front of her with another blade.

"Young Master Su, we already know we were wrong. Why must you continue to be so ruthless?"

"When did I ever say I didn't come here to be ruthless?!"

"Today, all you sluts from the Jade Pool Holy Land must die!"

As the commotion from Su Ming's battle with the Jade Pool Holy Land grew louder, people from other nearby factions finally gathered to watch.

"Who is that? To actually be able to suppress the people from the Jade Pool Holy Land?"

"Not sure, but with such strength, he surely isn't some nameless nobody... It's likely that the one who fought the Dragon Court earlier was also this person."

"Xiuer, if I go up now to help the people from the Jade Pool Holy Land, would that count as a hero saving beauties?"

"That indeed counts as a hero saving beauties. Does the Young Master intend to try?"

"Forget it, I don't want to get into a fight with that guy yet."

The people from Shengyang Mountain finally arrived late. Upon seeing Su Ming fighting the Jade Pool Holy Land, Yan Bing was immediately dumbfounded.

"That's... Brother Su? He's actually this strong?"

"Senior Brother, should we watch from here, or go up and lend him a hand?"

Yan Bing really wanted to step forward and help Su Ming; after all, they already had a grudge with the Jade Pool Holy Land from before.

But a voice in the back of his mind told him to just stay put and observe the situation.

"No need, we'll just wait here." Yan Bing blurted out immediately.

Now, anyone with eyes could see that the Jade Pool Holy Land wouldn't last much longer.

Due to the existence of the 'Chaos Domain', the spiritual energy of Li Pinger and the others was in a state of complete deficit.

Under Su Ming's fierce assault, their defense finally showed a hint of laxity.

Su Ming and Shen Ming seized this flaw, and their combined strike directly shattered the Formation of Li Pinger and the others.

They instantly flew backward like kites with broken strings, then fell into the area within the temporal turbulence.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Li Pinger vomited a mouthful of fresh blood, which also contained fragments of her internal organs.

She looked at Su Ming walking toward her and said with difficulty, "Young Master Su, must you really be so ruthless!"

"Then I'll answer you once more: I am here to be ruthless."

Su Ming swung his blade, and Li Pinger's face, which looked somewhat poignantly beautiful due to her injuries, suddenly soared into the sky. Immediately after, 'Chaos Fire' covered the entire head and burned it to ashes.

The remaining Disciples of the Jade Pool Holy Land were no exception; they either died at Su Ming's hands or were swallowed directly by Shen Ming.

"What a ruthless man, to destroy such beautiful flowers so heartlessly. If it were me, even if I were to kill them, I'd at least have some fun first."

"Young Master, please do not continue to ruin the clan's reputation..."

After dealing with the people from the Jade Pool Holy Land, the System's voice also sounded.

[Congratulations to the Host for executing the Guardian chosen by the supreme heavenly mandate. Gained 50,000 supreme destiny points.]

No wonder they appeared so coincidentally; it turns out they had become Long Ao's Guardians under the secret push of the supreme heavenly mandate.

However, these Guardians were somewhat imperfect.

After all, if they were truly and completely controlled by the supreme heavenly mandate, the people of the Jade Pool Holy Land would definitely not have begged for mercy; they might even have launched suicide attacks.

Although the supreme heavenly mandate was the strongest destiny, it could not completely interfere with the Legacy Secret Realm left behind by a Limitless Realm expert.

For Su Ming, this was definitely good news.

Afterward, Su Ming, ignoring the gazes of the other factions, went directly to the battlefield where he had previously fought the Dragon Court. He took the two dragon corpses on the ground and Long Ao's dragon horns into his possession.

The other factions witnessing this scene gained a deeper understanding of Su Ming's strength.

"Slaying the Dragon Court first, then slaughtering the Jade Pool. You truly have great skill, brother."
