236: Overt and Conspiracies

The Haotian Mirror was the personal Magic Treasure of Immortal Master Baimei; it combined offense and defense, and possessed the power of a spatial Magic Treasure, making it no small matter.

Yet, during the decisive battle against the Blood Demon, the Haotian Mirror had already been sucked away by the Blood Cave controlled by the Blood Demon; how could it possibly appear in the hands of Fairy Yunyi?

The answer was self-evident!

Xuanji Zi said sternly, "You really did collude with the Blood Demon; you are all in league together!"

Swish, swish, swish...

Several figures instantly jumped behind the woman like zombies, lining up in a row, while Fairy Yunyi chuckled, "You no longer recognize me as your Junior Sister, do you not? Since you say I am the Red Corpse Divine Lord, then I shall be. The Red Corpse Divine Lord and the Blood Demon have always been allies; it is just that your thinking is too pedantic, which is why you could not discover it... Hehe, actually, I am both Red Corpse and your Junior Sister Yunyi. Whether it be soul or Physical Body, memory or spirit, we have already completely achieved Fusion, with no distinction between us..."

"You merely occupied my Junior Sister's Physical Body!"

Xuanji Zi saw through it clearly. He said in a deep voice, "Your scheme has been exposed, and you have no way out. Either fight or surrender—make your decision!"

"Hehe, I just love how overbearing yet soft-hearted you are... Hehe, actually, I had roughly guessed how you escaped, but I just could not bring myself to believe it..."

Fairy Yunyi glanced at the table to the side, where Tang Ku was currently raising his wine cup, offering her a toast from afar.

"Do not try to change the subject; will you fight or surrender?"

Xuanji Zi's right hand's sword finger flickered uncertainly. In fact, this Nether Sword Finger was his signature technique; without the aid of his own spirit sword, this move was his strongest attack.

"Hehe, you must think that I only have the Haotian Mirror, which is why you dare to speak to me like this!"

Fairy Yunyi sneered, "Do not forget, the Magic Treasure you gave your Disciple is also in my hands..."

As she spoke, she spread her hands; her left hand glowed with purple light, and her right hand with azure light. Xuanji Zi recognized at a glance that it was the light of the Purple and Azure Twin Swords.

These two Sword Qi flickered, much brighter than when they were in the hands of the two, Yao and Xu, before.

"You few, go capture that pair of little lovebirds; my Senior Brother must be dealt with by me!"

As she spoke, Fairy Yunyi had already charged towards him. Meanwhile, the Shu Mountain Disciples present who had not been controlled were instantly attacked by their companions. Due to their long-term training, these conscious Disciples immediately began to counterattack, and the battle turned dark and chaotic. The entire venue instantly became as lively as a battlefield, with various colors of Sword Qi flying everywhere, even more exaggerated than those TV dramas about immortals and demons.

Boom...

Xuanji Zi was blasted into the ground. Even though his physical strength was among the best on Shu Mountain, this force, which could almost shatter his spine head-on, caused him to suffer severe injuries in that instant.

He had never imagined how, with Fairy Yunyi's cultivation level, she could manage to wield both the Haotian Mirror and the Purple and Azure Twin Swords simultaneously...

Even Baimei, when using the Haotian Mirror, could only use one Azure Cable Sword.

How did Fairy Yunyi, whose cultivation level was much lower than his own, manage to do it?

Without a Magic Treasure, Xuanji Zi had absolutely no power to fight back at this moment and was beaten into a steady retreat. Suddenly, he remembered the bald man from last night. His eyes scanned around for a moment, and he suddenly felt a huge force descending from the sky, pressing down on his head like a mountain.

Bang!

Xuanji Zi knelt on one knee, spitting out blood, but he was still gritting his teeth and holding on.

"Hehe, what are you looking at? Looking for that monk? Hehe, you can see for yourself, he has no time to come and help you!"

Fairy Yunyi said, her eyes full of madness, "They are currently unable to even protect themselves!"

That was right; Xuanji Zi saw that a huge circular Formation had appeared under Tang Ku and the others' feet. Blood-red light, accompanied by red liquid, was constantly surging, and some palms made of blood were constantly drilling out from the ground, attempting to drag Tang Ku and the others directly into the ground.

"Blood Demon?"

Xuanji Zi could not help but exclaim in shock, "You actually really lured him here?"

"Hehe, wherever the Blood Cave is, that is where the Blood Demon resides!"

Fairy Yunyi pointed to her own head and smiled, "His mind is currently chaotic; he is not the complete Blood Demon, so he is very easy to control, is he not?"

"So, in reality, the Blood Demon was just a Puppet from the beginning?"

Xuanji Zi said in a deep voice, "The mastermind behind everything... is you? When were you controlled by Red Corpse?"

"Hmm... if you say it is control, then it is control!"

Fairy Yunyi chuckled, "One year ago, I met the Red Corpse Divine Lord. It gave me a tremendous Opportunity and also allowed me to recognize myself. All I have ever wanted is you... Even if it means overturning everything, even if it means throwing this world into chaos, I must have your heart..."

"So you have to use the Shu Mountain Disciples as a wager? You... you are truly not my Junior Sister!"

Xuanji Zi said, shocked.

"Hehe, of course I am your Junior Sister, only I am no longer that gentle, kind, and delicate Junior Sister of yours. I am a Junior Sister with her own opinions, thoughts, and abilities. I am not your appendage; I have the ability to think independently, that is all!"

Fairy Yunyi said, "Come with me, Senior Brother. Once you know you are coming with me, you will know that what I say is true. Leave this mountain, this School, and we can live a better life..."

Xuanji Zi fell silent. He looked at Fairy Yunyi and the chaos on the scene, and for a moment, he was actually speechless.

The only thing he did not want was for the Disciples to fight because of his affairs, resulting in a lose-lose situation.

But now...

"Hehe, I would rather die than let you succeed..."

Gritting his teeth, he wanted to use the trump card he had left behind, wanting to kill this woman on the spot as quickly as possible.

However, the very moment he was about to act, a voice from behind Fairy Yunyi said with a very indifferent expression, "What a good seductress, skilled at coaxing and deceiving... Hehe, if we weren't afraid of injuring your Blood Demon and it not daring to move, we would have only had to endure for a while. Now that the Blood Demon has appeared, it is time for us to close the net!"

As he spoke, the fighting Shu Mountain Disciples could not help but tremble. Before they could react, they saw a monk in moon-white monk robes already appearing behind Fairy Yunyi, saying with a half-smile.

This time, Fairy Yunyi was truly startled. She suddenly jumped forward, and when she turned back, she saw that only a pile of debris from the wooden tea table and a large pile of ceramic pot fragments remained where the Blood Demon had just been, and the Blood Demon was nowhere to be found!
