113: Chapter 113: Xiao Yan's Inner Demon Causes Shock to the Three Saint Ancestors of the Heaven-Slaying Alliance!

Zhou Yuxuan and Xiao Yan stared at each other through the mirror.

He hadn't expected Xiao Yan's Luck to be so powerful that he would find the yin-yang separation mirror at the exact same moment as himself.

The desire to eliminate Xiao Yan grew even stronger in his heart.

“Old Ancestor, I don't want to see this face anymore. How do I turn it off?”

Seeing Zhou Yuxuan's face immediately brought back many unpleasant memories for Xiao Yan. He asked the mouse on his shoulder with a dark expression.

“Hehe! It's simple. Just stop injecting True Essence into the yin mirror!”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was just about to act.

At that moment, the image on the yin mirror showed a cold sneer appearing on Zhou Yuxuan's face.

“Xiao Yan, don't you want to see what's happening with your Xiao Family right now?”

Hearing those words, Xiao Yan's movements halted.

At this moment, a sudden, intense pang of pain surged through his originally calm heart.

“You... what did you do to my Xiao Family?” Xiao Yan asked in a low voice.

The Ancestor of the Xiao Clan on his shoulder also seemed to realize something and said with great concern, “Little Yan, quick, break the connection! Don't let him influence you!”

However, the Ancestor of the Xiao Clan's warning came too late.

Zhou Yuxuan took out the Soul Summoning Banner and summoned the Divine Souls of the Xiao Family members from within.

Every one of them had a dull expression, obeying only Zhou Yuxuan's commands.

“You... you bastard!”

“It's one thing to take advantage of my absence to destroy my Xiao Family, but to be so malicious as to refine them into your Puppets—if I, Xiao Yan, do not kill you, I swear I am not human!”

Xiao Yan's eyes were filled with bloodlust as he stared venomously at Zhou Yuxuan's face on the mirror's surface.

Long ago, he had felt the sensation of losing loved ones and the disappearance of blood relatives. He had thought Zhou Yuxuan merely took advantage of his departure—

—to vent his anger on the entire Xiao Family, but he never imagined Zhou Yuxuan's methods would be so cruel.

Not only did he wipe out the Xiao Family, but he even refined the Divine Souls of everyone, from the secluded ancestors down to the unborn infants, into his own Puppets.

This was simply an outrage that would incense both gods and men.

Most importantly, Xiao Yan discovered his own father among the Xiao Family souls. His father stared at him through the mirror with a blank expression.

However, he could no longer recognize him, which made Xiao Yan's heart ache even more.

[Ding! Host has successfully altered the plot, causing the Luck Protagonist Xiao Yan to develop a Heart Demon and increasing his negative emotions. Reward: One bronze fragment!]

(bronze fragment: A fragment of a top-tier Divine Artifact. There are six in total. Once all six are collected, the top-tier Divine Artifact can be reforged. It is an indispensable item for opening a certain ancient ruin.)

...

Hearing the reward provided by the System this time, even Zhou Yuxuan hadn't expected it to be this.

Now, including this bronze fragment rewarded by the System, he had two in his possession.

Adding the ones he knew were in the hands of Xiao Yan and the Northern Mang Gu Family, he now had news of four bronze fragments.

To obtain the remaining two, he would have to search for them one by one among the Six Ancient Clans.

After all, he remembered that some of the items in that ancient ruin were extremely powerful, and he wouldn't just hand them over to those Luck Protagonists.

“Little Yan, break it off now!” At this moment, the Ancestor of the Xiao Clan noticed that Xiao Yan's state of mind had shifted again. He repeatedly grabbed Xiao Yan's hand and forcibly severed his connection with Zhou Yuxuan.

Seeing the surface of the yang mirror fall into darkness again, Zhou Yuxuan didn't pay it much mind and simply placed it into the System space.

He then continued walking toward Qin Hao.

In the hiding place of the Heaven-Defying Alliance Disciples on Hulong Mountain, those who refused to surrender had been eliminated one by one.

Now, only an unconscious Qin Hao remained, barely clinging to life.

“Saint, the Heaven-Defying Alliance Disciples have been eradicated by us. Please give us your next instructions!”

A man covered in blood walked toward Zhou Yuxuan, cupped his hands, and spoke respectfully.

“Mm. From now on, you shall serve by my side!”

Zhou Yuxuan replied softly.

He then looked at Qin Hao and asked the System inwardly.

“System, check Qin Hao's remaining Luck value.”

[Ding! Current Luck Protagonist Qin Hao's remaining Luck value: 12%!]

Seeing that after two consecutive blows, Qin Hao's Luck value still hadn't dropped below ten percent.

This made Zhou Yuxuan quite annoyed.

He glanced at the dog-like Qin Hao and then spoke to the Heaven-Defying Alliance members who had just defected to him.

“Someone, bring the Immortal-Binding Lock and the Dragon-Restraining Rope. Bind the Tianyuan traitor Qin Hao and parade him through the streets within the Tianyuan Holy Sect's territory!”

“I want to proclaim to the world that Qin Hao's fate is the consequence of betraying the Tianyuan Holy Sect and betraying me!”

Zhou Yuxuan's cold voice echoed in everyone's ears.

At this moment, everyone looked at Qin Hao with a sense of relief. Fortunately, they had the brains to see the situation clearly; otherwise, they would have ended up with a miserable fate like Qin Hao's.

Immediately, several Disciples stepped forward, holding the Immortal-Binding Lock and the Dragon-Restraining Rope to tightly bind Qin Hao.

They gave him not even the slightest chance to escape.

Next, Zhou Yuxuan took out a ten thousand mile teleportation talisman. After providing these people with identification, he used the Talisman to teleport them into the territory of the Tianyuan Holy Sect within ten thousand miles.

Then, Zhou Yuxuan left the hidden cave and went outside to check on the battle between Pei Nanya and the other.

...

"Bang! Bang!!"

High above Hulong Mountain, two Saints were launching a fierce offensive against a Saint shrouded in Sword Qi.

The fluctuations produced by every collision of attacks shattered and collapsed the surrounding space.

Spatial rifts continuously appeared in the air.

The world within this space at Hulong Mountain seemed as if it were isolated from the outside world, filled with pitted craters everywhere.

Pei Nanya's current opponent was Ancestor Bodhi.

Under the suppression of the Divine Light Demon-Suppressing Seal, there was not a single intact spot on the blood-decayed Ancestor Bodhi's body; he was covered in deep, concave craters.

However, although Ancestor Bodhi appeared to be heavily injured, his offensive had not weakened in the slightest.

“Bang!”

After another collision, the five of them completely separated.

Zhao Chungang and Pei Nanya felt Zhou Yuxuan's aura and, after separating, quickly came to his side.

“Young Lord!”

“Master!”

Zhou Yuxuan nodded and then looked at Ancestor Bodhi and the other two.

“Hehe! I didn't expect you three to be so old yet still able to hold out for so long. It's truly an eye-opener for me.”

Zhou Yuxuan praised them indifferently.

“Hmph! Boy of the Zhou Family, if you are afraid, then hand over the treasures, and we might spare your life!”

“If they didn't have the supreme treasures you gave them, it would be absolutely impossible for them to engage in a prolonged battle with us!”

The Ancestor of the Gu Family spoke coldly.

Hearing this, Zhou Yuxuan didn't forget to retort.

“If your brain is failing because you're old, go back and rest to nourish it!”

“Knowing they rely on the supreme treasures in their hands to fight you for so long, if we handed them over, wouldn't we be dead meat?”

Being retorted by Zhou Yuxuan like this, the expressions of the three ancestors became even colder.

However, Zhou Yuxuan ignored them and simply began to circulate the Emperor Sutra of Calamity.

The Dao and Law within this sealed world continuously bred Calamity Poison.

Although with his cultivation, even with an Emperor Sutra, he couldn't take the life of a Saint.

However, as long as these Saints manipulated the Dao and Law of this world, the Calamity Poison would invade their bodies. While not fatal, it could still affect them.

The three ancestors were also experienced and knowledgeable people. After Zhou Yuxuan activated his Cultivation Technique—

—they sensed the fluctuations of a profound Great Dao and Law. Their faces filled with surprise, and their gazes became fervent.

“You actually possess an Emperor Sutra?!”
