538: One sword cut through the pavilion formation, leaving no one alive

Qingzhou, Evil King Pavilion.

Thousands of miles away, five flying boats were rapidly breaking through the Void Realm.

The leader, with a saber at his waist, was cold, arrogant, and peerless, with a heroic and imposing demeanor, and Phoenix eyes that were intimidating.

“Zhang Huan, you are to lead one hundred Demon Suppression Guards, carrying the Shao Si Order, to the Qingzhou Demon Suppression Division. Have them dispatch personnel to assist in eradicating the other branches of the Evil King Pavilion. You must kill them all, leaving no future troubles.”

Fu Yunxuan said coldly.

“Yes, Commander Fu!”

Zhang Huan accepted the order, and one of the flying boats left the main group, heading towards Qingzhou City.

… …

At this moment, inside the Evil King Pavilion.

In the Evil King Hall, the atmosphere was Weird.

“Has our Evil King Pavilion fallen to this point?” An Elder of the Evil King Pavilion had a grim expression.

“How can we hand over the Evil King? This is truly a great humiliation, and furthermore, there are such harsh conditions.”

Another Elder also had a grim expression, as if he had eaten something disgusting.

“Now, only by befriending Guangming Temple can we preserve the foundation of our Evil King Pavilion. We have already offended Chu Jiang, and only Guangming Temple is willing to take us in.” The new Grand Elder of the Evil King Pavilion, Evil Third Thief, said indifferently.

The Evil King Pavilion had once assassinated Chu Jiang, and there was no guarantee that one day in the future, he wouldn't come looking for trouble.

Therefore, they had to find a backer in advance.

But they had visited several Zhengmo Ten Sects, and almost all of them had either rejected them or demanded exorbitant conditions that were unbearable.

Only Guangming Temple agreed to accept them.

They only had three conditions to agree to protect the Evil King Pavilion.

The new Evil King on the stage grew increasingly angry. For Guangming Temple to protect the Evil King Pavilion, they had to meet three conditions.

First, half of the Evil King Pavilion's future income must be handed over to Guangming Temple.

Second, Guangming Temple must establish outposts within the Evil King Pavilion's territory to spread their teachings.

Third, the new Evil King must join Guangming Temple, a branch of the Huan Xi lineage.

The Huan Xi lineage was an eccentric branch of Guangming Temple, almost akin to the Demonic Path. Not only did they practice yin-nourishing and yang-replenishing techniques, but they also practiced yang-nourishing and yin-replenishing techniques, with a particular fondness for top-tier experts, which was truly disgusting.

The first two conditions could be endured with gritted teeth, but the third was simply torture.

The chief of the Huan Xi lineage, Venerable Huan Xi, was a notorious evil person.

However, he was a Puppet supported by Grand Elder Evil Third Thief and had no real power.

Moreover, seventy percent of the high-ranking officials in the Evil King Pavilion were the Grand Elder's people, and they only followed his lead. He had virtually no power to resist.

“They’re here!”

Just then.

Evil Third Thief suddenly transformed into an afterimage and went outside. Several Elders followed suit, their Faces showing joy.

“Black Sun, the chief Disciple of Venerable Huan Xi from Huan Xi Hall of Guangming Temple, greets the Evil King and the Grand Elder.”

A man resembling a small mountain, with an oily belly exposed, slightly cupped his hands towards everyone, a smile on his Face.

Behind him followed over a dozen monks.

“Great Master Black Sun, our Evil King Pavilion has already prepared a delicious banquet. Please come inside, there is also what you desire.”

Evil Third Thief said.

“What the Grand Elder has arranged must be of High Grade. Then I must take a good look.”

Black Sun said with a faint smile.

“By the way, the Evil King’s Realm is a bit low, only Heaven and Earth Realm Sixth Stage. My master might not be very satisfied.”

The old Evil King was at least a Heaven Ranking expert. Although he couldn't compare to his own master, this successor was too subpar. He didn't believe that the Evil King Pavilion had no other masters; they were just reluctant to part with them.

“Great Master Black Sun, rest assured, the Evil King has been Cultivating a Divine Power recently and is about to reach Major Achievement. His Realm will definitely skyrocket, guaranteeing Venerable Huan Xi’s satisfaction.”

Evil Third Thief said.

In reality, it was merely an evil technique that consumed Lifespan to increase strength, just disposable consumables anyway.

“That’s good.”

Black Sun nodded in satisfaction and followed Evil Third Thief to the main hall.

“Great Master Black Sun, you must speak well of us to Venerable Huan Xi…”

The Elder of the Evil King Pavilion next to him had not finished speaking when he noticed that Grand Elder Evil Third Thief’s figure had disappeared, and sounds of fighting seemed to be coming from outside the mountain gate.

“Mountain Protection Array, activate!”

When everyone arrived at the mountain gate, they found that the patrol Disciples on the outer mountain had been slaughtered, their bodies strewn across the ground, and a large number of Demon Suppression Guards were advancing towards the Evil King Pavilion’s main mountain.

Just look.

In the Void Realm, four flying boats stood. Only fifty Demon Suppression Guards were dispatched, yet they had already massacred the outer mountain.

“Demon Suppression Guards, how dare you attack our Evil King Pavilion.”

Evil Third Thief was furious, but in reality, his heart was already greatly shocked. The lowest Realm of these Demon Suppression Guards was Spirit Refining Fifth Stage, and there were two hundred Faxiang Realm cultivators, and over forty Heaven and Earth Realm cultivators.

This far exceeded the Evil King Pavilion’s maximum capacity; the two sides differed by several times.

“Evil King Pavilion, colluding with demons and causing chaos among the common people, by the order of the Deputy Commander of the Demon Suppression Division, exterminate the entire sect!”

A cold voice came from the Void Realm.

The words fell.

A soul banner with purple Qi soaring into the sky expanded against the wind. A million Yin souls wailed, and black clouds enveloped the entire Evil King Pavilion.

“So it’s you. If Chu Jiang had personally arrived, our Evil King Pavilion would have feared you a bit, but you, a stinky bitch, dare to boast about destroying our Evil King Pavilion? You are truly seeking death.”

“All Elders, form the Sect Protection Array — the Great Sun Guangming Array!”

“Yes!”

The Elders did not dare to be careless, each taking their positions and quickly activating the Sect Protection Array.

Thousands of High-Grade Spirit Stones were burning fiercely.

Rumble!

Outside the Mountain Protection Array, three more layers of defense were formed.

Evil Third Thief’s eyes were sinister, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it wasn't Chu Jiang who came this time, otherwise, even with the Sect Protection Array, it wouldn't be able to withstand his single strike.

However, this Chu Jiang was arrogant. In the past, he usually personally handled the extermination of sects, but this time he only sent a subordinate.

This was their opportunity.

“Great Master Black Sun, please wait a moment. After our Evil King Pavilion repels the Demon Suppression Guards, we will go with you to Guangming Temple to discuss important matters.”

Evil Third Thief shouted, deliberately letting the Demon Suppression Guards hear him.

Since they had taken benefits from his Evil King Pavilion, there was no reason for them to stand by and do nothing.

“This old schemer…”

Black Sun’s expression was grim. If it were ordinary Demon Suppression Guards, he would have easily dispatched them, but this group of Demon Suppression Guards had too strong a combat power.

Even if he took action, he might not be able to turn the tide of the battle.

But Evil Third Thief’s words had already bound the Evil King Pavilion and Guangming Temple together, making it impossible to escape.

“Great Master Black Sun, rest assured. Our Evil King Pavilion’s Sect Protection Array is sufficient to block ordinary Rongtian Stage cultivators. He cannot enter. Afterwards, half of our Evil King Pavilion’s treasury will be offered.”

Evil Third Thief said while controlling the array to resist the Demon Suppression Guards’ attacks and comforting him.

“Alright then.”

Black Sun could only nod. If he could obtain half of the Evil King Pavilion’s resources, his status in Guangming Temple would surely rise dramatically.

It was worth the gamble.

Moreover, was his Guangming Temple afraid of Chu Jiang? Since they dared to accept the Evil King Pavilion, they had already anticipated such a situation.

“This lord, the Evil King Pavilion is a good citizen of Great Chu, and also a friend of our Guangming Temple. Is there some misunderstanding here?”

“Please give our Guangming Temple some Face and temporarily retreat your troops, how about it?”

Black Sun was quite confident. As one of the Ten Righteous Sects, Guangming Temple had a formidable reputation, and even the officials had to show them some respect.

He looked at Fu Yunxuan, secretly desiring her. She was truly a High Grade, and if offered to his master, he would surely receive a great reward. Unfortunately, she was Chu Jiang’s person, so he could not touch her.

Clang!

Fu Yunxuan’s Hun Tian Saber was unsheathed from her waist.

Whoosh!

A purple Saber Qi streaked across the sky, carrying the might of heaven and earth, unstoppable.

Crack—

Pfft!

The entire Mountain Protection Array, along with the Sect Protection Array, was broken open.

The Saber Qi’s speed did not decrease, directly striking Black Sun. With a gurgling sound, flesh and blood splattered on the spot, turning into a bloody mist.

Fu Yunxuan stood in the Void Realm, saying indifferently:

“Kill them, leave no one alive!”
