18: Chapter 18 was just about to take Xian Qing'er in when he disturbed the Little Thunderclap Bronze Statue.

"This lady hasn't eaten meat in a long time. Today, you two are doomed!"

In terms of size, Xian Qinger definitely held a massive advantage.

Moreover, her Realm was terrifyingly high.

That sense of oppression, combined with the Demonic Qi on this demoness, made it difficult to breathe.

However, as the Wine Sword Immortal, Ye Xiu's trump cards were no fewer than hers.

Especially the demon slaying sword in his hand.

It was even getting impatient to fly out on its own.

Currently, Ye Xiu's strongest attack method was the Sword Control Technique.

But he had a feeling that even if he didn't use his ultimate moves and relied solely on this demon slaying sword attacking on its own, it could still destroy the female demon before him.

At the same time, a deep voice came from the wine gourd in his hand.

It was Li Tianxing.

"Kid, let me out. I can perform Possession on this little sprite, and I will let you command her!"

This Devil Head is so tough.

He still hasn't turned into wine...

The Heavenly Demon Sect Leader, truly worthy of being the ceiling of the past.

However, do you think I am stupid enough to let you out?

As someone who underwent Transmigration, Ye Xiu understood clearly.

The reason he was able to subdue this Devil Head earlier was definitely not because his strength was higher than his.

It was because the opponent lacked a Physical Body, and he happened to encounter the Wine God Curse, which could restrain him.

If this Devil Head were allowed to occupy Xian Qinger's body, it would not be so easy to suppress.

"Sect Leader, I think you had better stay inside properly. You don't need to worry about what happens next!"

The next moment!

Ye Xiu completely followed his heart and directly released the demon slaying sword in his hand.

"Go!"

"Swish!"

The precious sword was like a sheepdog encountering a leader, exceptionally excited.

First, it circled its master once, then, carrying an incomparably sharp cold light, it charged straight at the demon.

"You, ah, what is this thing?"

Although Xian Qinger was arrogant just a moment ago, her intuition as a great demon was even sharper.

It was one thing for the demon slaying sword to remain sheathed, but once it flew free on its own, that feeling gave the female demon the sensation of standing on the edge of a ten-thousand-foot cliff.

"Hiss—!!!"

"It hurts so much! My legs! My legs that I just cultivated!"

Inside the main hall, screams rose one after another.

The giant centipede, which had been aggressive and seemed ready to crush everything, was now like something thrown into a meat grinder.

The demon slaying sword, which had long been sentient, did not need Ye Xiu's command at all.

It was like an old butcher who had accumulated centuries of Killing Intent, seeing the freshest pork.

The sword light was like lightning, so fast it even left afterimages.

It was not in a hurry to pierce the centipede's vital points, but rather, with a pleasure bordering on torture, it spun crazily around that massive body.

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Accompanied by dense, crisp sounds, the sky was filled with broken cyan tentacles and shattered shells.

Green demonic blood sprayed out like rain, causing the entire ancient temple to hiss as it corroded.

The once overbearing centipede woman, Xian Qinger, was now like a cucumber being peeled.

Her entire body's defense was as fragile as paper before the divine sword of Mount Shu.

"No! Stop peeling! If you peel any more, I'll be bald!"

Xian Qinger finally broke down.

How was this a hostage?

This was simply a ferocious god wearing human skin!

And this sword was even more unreasonable than the legendary Heavenly Blade!

"Bang!"

A puff of green smoke exploded.

The massive centipede body instantly vanished, and in its place was a ragged, blood-covered, delicate woman.

At this moment, where was even a shred of Xian Qinger's previous arrogance?

Her hair was disheveled, two bloody marks marred the face she once used to bewitch all living beings, and her body was covered in fine sword wounds.

"Thump!"

Without the slightest hesitation, her knees went soft, and she bowed her head to Ye Xiu.

"Young Master, spare me! Immortal, spare me!"

Xian Qinger wept like rain, her head banging against the floor with loud thuds.

"This servant had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai, and offended a True God! This servant is willing to submit! I am willing to acknowledge you as my master!"

She raised her head, her peach-blossom eyes filled with fear and pleading, even forcibly squeezing out a hint of servile charm:

"This servant has practiced in The Great Ruins for three hundred years and knows many bedroom... no, secret arts for serving people!

This servant can be your mount, your maid, as long as you don't kill me..."

Ye Xiu held the wine gourd, looking at the female demon begging for mercy before him, a playful, cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"A mount?"

"How would I ride you? With all these thorns on you, are you trying to stab me to death?"

Although he said that, the Killing Intent on Ye Xiu's body subsided a little.

After all, a living great demon familiar with the waterways was indeed more useful than a corpse.

Besides, although this demon slaying sword was fierce, it listened to commands.

"Clang!"

The demon slaying sword hovered three inches from the center of Xian Qinger's brow, spitting out cold light, as if waiting for Ye Xiu's final verdict.

"Since that's the case, then spit out your demonic core and let me..."

Ye Xiu was just about to say he would plant a Restriction.

A sudden change occurred!

"Namo Amitabha..."

A grand, solemn, yet inexplicably sinister and eerie Buddhist chant exploded without warning deep within the ancient temple!

"Om—!!!"

The originally dim temple was instantly illuminated by a blinding golden light.

But this golden light was not warm; instead, it was bone-chillingly cold.

Ye Xiu looked up abruptly.

He saw that in the center of the main hall, the Bronze Buddha statue, which had originally been covered in copper rust and looked kind-hearted, had now actually "come to life"!

Its originally closed eyes suddenly opened.

These were not the Wisdom Eye of the Buddha, but a pair of ink-black demonic eyes without whites, as if leading to the abyss of the Nine Serenities!

"Bold Prodigy, how dare you betray this seat?"

The Bronze Buddha spoke, its voice like a great bell, making one's eardrums ache.

"Clatter!"

The two thick iron chains that originally extended to the bottom of the river suddenly straightened like two giant black pythons!

A terrifying, immense force came from them.

It turned out that the other ends of these two iron chains had actually pierced through Xian Qinger's shoulder blades, locking deep into her Soul!

"Ah—! Venerable one, spare me! Venerable one, spare me!"

Xian Qinger, who was still begging Ye Xiu for mercy just moments ago, now looked as if she had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.

She let out a shrill scream, her body uncontrollably wrapped by that golden light, flying toward the Bronze Buddha!

"You ruined this seat's cultivation and stole this seat's Karma..."

The Bronze Buddha was expressionless, its massive copper hand slowly lifting, golden light gathering in its palm, yet it exuded a thick, bloody stench.

Its gaze crossed over the screaming Xian Qinger and locked firmly onto Ye Xiu and Qin Mu.

"Two little bugs who do not know the height of the sky or the depth of the earth."

"This Yong River is this seat's Daoist site, and this female demon is the 'livestock' this seat has raised."

"You injured her, which means you ruined this seat's three hundred years of cultivation."

"Since that is the case..."

A hint of greed flashed in the Bronze Buddha's ink-black eyes: "Then use your lives to fill this deficit!"

"Boom!"

The golden light transformed into a giant golden hand that covered the sky and sun, carrying the might to suppress everything, and slapped down directly toward Ye Xiu and Qin Mu!

"Clang!"

Just when everything seemed unsolvable, a light interwoven with cyan and gold once again radiated from Ye Xiu's body.

The chaotic azure lotus deep within his bitter sea bloomed once more!

"Eh, chaotic azure lotus, you are..."

This terrified the Bronze Buddha; he seemed to know the origin of this lotus.

That was...
