114: There are five more.

Nangong Li's words left Shen Lian stunned.

He even doubted for a moment that he had misheard.

At this point, this wretch actually still had the face to ask him to save her?

"Shen Lian, I beg you, save me. As long as you are willing to save me, I agree to fulfill my original promise and marry you as your wife. Isn't this the result you have always been longing for?"

Seeing that Shen Lian did not speak, Nangong Li thought he had softened, so she threw out her biggest trump card, attempting to get Shen Lian to save her from this misery.

Unexpectedly, these words almost made Shen Lian lose his composure.

"Nangong Li, how long has it been since you looked in a mirror? Do you want to see how ugly you look right now? Even a blind person would feel nauseated seeing you. Marry me as your wife? How did you even dare to think of that?"

Nangong Li hurriedly said upon hearing this, "Shen Lian, don't despise me. As long as you are willing to help me heal, I will definitely recover my former beauty, and then you won't despise me anymore."

"You mean, not only do I have to save you, but I also have to help you recover your former appearance?"

"Shen Lian, this is what you should do. It is the promise you made to the seven of us sisters. You cannot just stand by and watch. As long as you agree to my conditions, I will help you persuade the other six to marry you as well."

"Hahahaha!"

Shen Lian was truly amused by Nangong Li's shameless words.

"At this point, you trash still want to use that low-level rhetoric to control me?"

"Nangong Li, do you still think the person standing in front of you is that simp who knew nothing and obeyed your every word?"

"If so, then I will tell you clearly: seeing your current predicament, I only feel incomparably gratified. A piece of trash like you should slowly rot and die among the humble ants."

After finishing, Shen Lian grabbed her arm, and disregarding her heart-wrenching screams, ripped it off forcefully.

"Ah~"

Just as Nangong Li's scream rang out, Shen Lian stomped down again, completely crushing her right leg.

The pain, exceeding the limits of her Physical Body, made Nangong Li stare at Shen Lian with her eyelids missing.

"Hahaha, how is it, Nangong Li? What kind of pain are you experiencing now? Speak, why aren't you speaking anymore!"

After Shen Lian removed all four of her limbs from her torso, he looked at her expressionless face and sneered.

"Prepare to welcome the final moments of your absurd and ridiculous life. Waiting quietly for death is your only destiny. After your Physical Body dies, your soul will continue to suffer torture, hahaha."

The laughter echoed intensely in the cave, but Shen Lian's figure had already vanished.

"Shen Lian! You will die a horrible death! Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go! Do you hear me!"

"No! I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

Realizing that Shen Lian had no intention of saving her, Nangong Li let out a desperate cry.

A gust of cold wind blew by, directly extinguishing the burning campfire, and the cave instantly dimmed.

Nangong Li's heart tightened, and a wave of intense fear swept through her entire body.

"Help, someone save me? I am the Sect Master of the Chess Sword Pavilion. I will give a heavy reward to whoever saves me."

"I am the... Chess Sword Pavilion... Sect Master... Na... Nangong Li..."

Responding to her was only the mournful wailing of the cold wind blowing into the cave...

Before long, a dormant soul entered the human emperor cauldron.

Shen Lian's lips curled up slightly.

"Five more. I am very much looking forward to seeing what kind of soul-stirring scene it will be when the seven of you reunite in the human emperor cauldron after death."

...

On the other side, Lu Qingyi, who had obtained the Innate Sword Bone, galloped northward.

After a full day and night, ensuring no outsiders were around, she stopped in front of a pool and couldn't help but take out the Innate Sword Bone to examine it.

"Great. I, Lu Qingyi, am also destined to reach a new Peak. With this sword bone, my cultivation will surely advance by leaps and bounds. By then, even if the Chess Sword Pavilion Disciples know that I harmed Nangong Li, it will be a done deal, and I assume they won't make things difficult for a new talent in the sword Dao like me."

Thinking of this, she seemed to already see the scene of herself being surrounded and worshipped by ten thousand people.

After calming down, she started to ponder.

"I must find a place to perform the Fusion with the Innate Sword Bone. I heard this process is very long and painful. I don't know if I can endure it. Regardless, before the people from the Chess Sword Pavilion find me, I must plant the sword bone into my body. Besides the Medicine King Valley, only the Xuan Sheng Empress of the Immortal Dynasty can do this. I might as well go to the Holy Territory first and find an opportunity to approach the Empress."

Thinking of this, she immediately flew toward the Holy Territory where the Xuan Sheng Immortal Dynasty was located.

But just as she flew two steps, a palm force descended from the sky.

"Not good, danger!"

Lu Qingyi's pupils shook, and she dodged the attack with a flash.

When her feet landed, she felt the surrounding atmosphere drop, and a suffocating Aura Pressure descended from the sky.

The next moment, Shen Lian's figure drifted down from the Void Realm.

Before Lu Qingyi could speak, she heard Shen Lian shout in a deep voice: "Leave the sword bone, and you can go."

Lu Qingyi was stunned: "Senior, this seems different from what we agreed upon."

Shen Lian: "I only promised to let you take Nangong Li's sword bone, but I didn't guarantee I wouldn't come to snatch it. As for whether you have the ability to keep it after you get it, that depends on your own skills."

After finishing, he spread his hands: "Hand it over. Considering you were so cooperative, I can spare your life, you trash."

Lu Qingyi was instantly trembling with anger, but pressured by the opponent's terrifying strength, she could only present the Innate Sword Bone, which she hadn't even warmed up yet, to Shen Lian with both hands.

Shen Lian took the Innate Sword Bone, touched it casually, didn't even look at it, and threw it into his storage ring.

Then, too lazy to even say a word to Lu Qingyi, he turned and left directly.

Witnessing this scene, Lu Qingyi trembled with rage.

At this point, she finally realized that she had been used by Shen Lian as a tool.

From the beginning, Shen Lian never intended for her to truly obtain the sword bone. All he wanted was to use her hands to make Nangong Li feel despair.

In other words, she was now a Rebellious Disciple who betrayed her master and destroyed her ancestors. Once the Chess Sword Pavilion found out, they would absolutely not keep her.

"No, I must find a place to take refuge. The Chess Sword Pavilion will not let me go. I am not willing to accept my fate like this, absolutely not willing. I, Lu Qingyi, am destined to walk the path to the Peak of the sword Dao."

Lu Qingyi, carrying a nearly distorted obsession, disappeared into the darkness step by step...

After she left, Shen Lian's figure appeared in the shadows again.

"I'll leave your life for Su Mengyao to deal with personally. Regardless of who lives or dies in the end, it's no loss to me."

After speaking, he looked up at the Void Realm.

"Don't you think so? Defeated opponent?"

Boom—

Responding to him was a dull thunderclap that echoed through.

...

On the Peak of Phoenix Falling Mountain, Shen Lian stood above the clouds, gently shaking his Folding Fan, feeling the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi circulating rapidly in his body.

His current strength had reached the fifth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm, but his actual combat power was at the ninth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm, even surpassing his predecessor's Peak moment.

But for Shen Lian, the Primordial Chaos Realm was just a starting point. Only by constantly climbing upward could he stand at the Peak again.

"The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of the Primordial Continent is indeed the most abundant area I have ever seen in my hundred lifetimes of Reincarnation. But with this kind of Spiritual Qi, wanting to quickly improve my cultivation Foundation and restore it to the Peak of the ninety-ninth level of the Extreme Dao Realm is undoubtedly a pipe dream."

"Why not take this opportunity to go to the Spirit Realm and deal with those two bitches, Mu Yaoguang and Su Yuheng?"

"It's just that I heard Mu Yaoguang has a close relationship with the Lord of the Spirit Realm. If this causes the entire Spirit Realm to intervene, it would be unwise right now."

"Forget it, those two pieces of trash are not a threat; killing them is as easy as turning over one's hand. For now, it's better to focus on improving my own strength. Only when my own strength is strong is it the greatest reliance."

Thinking of this, he immediately decided on his next direction.

"It's about time to send that trash Ye Fan on his way. I heard the Ye family has been living quite comfortably these years."

"Then let's go to the Holy Territory first to scout the situation. I don't know how the Six Profound Heavenly Ganoderma is being prepared."

Thinking of this, Shen Lian immediately summoned the netherworld chariot and galloped toward the Holy Territory...

At this moment, inside the golden and magnificent Xuan Sheng Immortal Palace filled with Spiritual Qi, a stunning figure draped in a golden dragon robe slowly appeared in front of the Phoenix Algae Pool.

This was the Xuan Sheng Empress Nalan Mingyue, an peerless powerhouse of the Holy Territory.

Nalan Mingyue looked at the mist-filled Phoenix Algae Pool, raised her sleeve, and asked: "Immortal friend, has your injury improved?"

As soon as the words fell, a slight dragon roar suddenly came from the Phoenix Algae Pool.

A moment later, a tangible stream of Ancestral Dragon Emperor Qi appeared in front of Nalan Mingyue.
