Chapter 628: Hard to Escape Death

Cha Jin and Wen Lingxue both nodded.?They saw everything happening outside. They’d finally found an outlet for their despondency, helplessness, grief, and rage. It was a wonderful feeling!

At the same time, it was obvious to all of them that Chu Xiu was afraid to attack for fear of harming the infant. There was no way he’d dare to kill Wen Lingxue’s parents!?After all, without his hostages, what did he have to threaten them with?

Meanwhile, outside the ruins.

Chu Xiu was inwardly conflicted.

He was naturally aware that the moment he killed Wen Changtai and Qin Qing, the demonic infant would die. Moreover, they would lose all means of threatening Su Yi!

“Way I see it, you’d best agree to exchange hostages.” Qing Luo shook his head. “How can you use such despicable tricks when cultivating the Grand Dao? This is just proof of your weakness.”

Chu Xiu’s expression shifted, but he couldn’t argue with that.

If not for his weakness, how could he have been forced to flee Nine Tripod City in panic?

Similarly, if he were strong enough to defeat Su Yi, why would he have resorted to using those connected to Su Yi as hostages?

“Alright, I agree!” Chu Xiu gnashed his teeth and fixed his eerie green gaze on Su Yi. “But first, I must ensure that the Esteemed Holy Infant is unharmed.”

He’d only just said this when the child sleeping in Su Yi’s arms opened her eyes and let out a series of urgent cries. She looked utterly frantic; it seemed she was begging for help.

Chu Xiu’s expression shifted dramatically. “Esteemed Holy Infant, please, rest assured! I’ll be sure to bring you back!”

“The little tyke’s quite interesting,” said Qing Luo, a strange light in his whirlpool-like eyes. “Demonic infants are descendants of the demon race, and they’re born with unique talents. They’re extremely rare. I just wonder what its blood tastes like….”

He couldn’t help but lick his lips.

Seeing this left Chu Xiu frantic and furious.?Is this guy really insane?

He’s thinking about that even now? At a time like this?

Wait a moment!

Something suddenly occurred to Chu Xiu.?This Qing Luo person is utterly unbridled and completely composed. Does that mean he’s strong enough to defeat and kill Su Yi? Is that why he’s so fearless?

The thought stirred Chu Xiu’s heart.

Su Yi then interjected, “Toss the hostages into the formation.”

The Heaven-Sealing Formation of the Nine Absolutes was under Ning Sihua’s control. It could bring his former in-laws safely into the ruins right away.

Chu Xiu hesitated. “What if you refuse to uphold your end of the deal?”

Su Yi said casually, “I’m not like you.”

Chu Xiu’s expression froze in place, but in the end, he gnashed his teeth and tossed Wen Changtai and Qin Qing over.

Bzzz!

The power of the formation hovering in the air churned, wrapping around them both. Soon, the couple had disappeared into thin air.

Within the ruins of the Immortals’ Sword House, Wen Lingxue, Ning Sihua, and Cha Jin felt an enormous weight lift off their shoulders.

“It’s your turn!” Chu Xiu stared intently at Su Yi, seemingly terrified that Su Yi would renege on his side of the deal.

Su Yi picked up the demonic infant, then flung her.

Chu Xiu inwardly sighed in relief, stretched out his hand, and caught her.

Clang!

The clear, impassioned hum of a sword rang out alongside a seemingly long-suppressed, bloodthirsty voice. Austere killing intent permeated the air.

Chu Xiu’s pupils constricted.

Qing Luo stiffened.

Su Yi had seemed calm and peaceful just moments prior, but now, he shot toward the Celestial Prison Demon Court cultivators like a gust of wind.

And the Abstruse God Sword was even faster than him!

One sword, and dense beams of sword qi fired in all directions!

Wherever the supremely sharp sword qi passed, the sky tore like cloth, forming intercrossing rifts.

It happened instantly.

More than ten demonic cultivators were torn to ribbons before they could even react. Their bodies exploded into chunks.

“This is bad!”

“Hurry up and retreat!”

Shrieks of alarm and panic rang out. The demonic cultivators clustered together, and all of them called upon their treasures and activated their secret arts. They dodged and defended with all their might.

However, both their treasures and their secret arts were as fragile as paper against Su Yi.

Furthermore, he was preternaturally quick. As he darted about, he left afterimages in his wake. No matter where you looked, there he was. It was impossible to tell which Su Yi’s were real and which were fake.

His speed combined with the Abstruse God Sword made him unstoppable. None could stand in his way.

One demonic cultivator fell after another. Some were decapitated, others were run through, while others were cut neatly in two…

Magic treasures exploded, Daoist magics were extinguished, and agonized shouts and wails rang out repeatedly. Hot, thick blood splattered like crimson fireworks, dyeing the ocean red.

It didn’t matter whether they were in the Grain Avoidance Realm, Origin Palace Realm, or Gathering Stars Realm. None of them could survive even a single hit, and all of them died on the spot!

Three snaps of the fingers later, and every Celestial Prison Demon Court cultivator present had died a brutal death, save for Chu Xiu and the Gathering Stars cultivators closest to him.

Su Yi was like a raging gale sweeping away the clouds!

A bloody mist filled the air, and fragmented corpses floated on the water’s surface.

The sight of this massacre shocked even Ning Sihua, Cha Jin, and Weng Lingxue. Their hearts and minds shook.

Qing Luo’s brow furrowed slightly, but he made no attempt to intervene.

However, Su Yi wasn’t done killing just yet.

Whoosh!

Su Yi’s blue robes fluttered around him as he charged at Chu Xiu.

A streak of clear sword qi arced through the air, illuminating the world.

Chu Xiu’s expression shifted dramatically, and he immediately raised a silver scepter.

Bang!

The scepter lit up and burst with radiant lightning. An appalling destructive aura spread out around it.

The Profound Yin Scepter!

This was a Spirit Dao treasure emblazoned with the will of a Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivator.

A few days ago, using this treasure provided Chu Xiu with enough power to contend with Ying Que.

Clang!!!

Su Yi’s slash cut through the silver lightning filling the sky, but in the end, the Profound Yin Scepter blocked it.

However, even so, the impact made Chu Xiu’s blood and qi flow in reverse. He staggered backward and nearly coughed up blood.

Boom!

Before Chu Xiu could react, Su Yi attacked once more.

His sword qi was radiant, his sword intent boundless!

His terrifying aura and power had long since enveloped the entire area. Chu Xiu had no hope of dodging. All he could do was steel himself and use his scepter to take the attack head-on.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Heaven-shaking impacts rang out, one after another. The entire stretch of ocean seemed to boil over as destructive radiance and energy currents spread outward. The entire area was thrown into chaos.

Before long, Chu Xiu found himself injured, and he repeatedly coughed up blood.

With his cultivation, he wasn’t Su Yi’s opponent to begin with. If not for the Profound Yin Scepter, he could never have blocked Su Yi’s attacks.

The ones who suffered the most were the Gathering Stars cultivators nearest to Chu Xiu. They found themselves drawn into the battle before they could flee. The surging current of boundless sword qi swept over them, shattering their bodies and dispersing their souls.

“Fellow Daoist, Su Yi is our common enemy. Are you really going to just stand there and watch?”

He didn’t understand why, even now, Qing Luo was unwilling to help out.

“We’re not close. Why should I help you?” laughed Qing Luo. “What, am I supposed to shield you from the storm just because you guided me here? The world has never operated like that.”

He paused, then added, “If our Fellow Daoist Su chooses to become my enemy, it’ll be the most foolish decision he could have made. I trust that someone of his intelligence won’t do anything so stupid.”

“....” Chu Xiu didn’t know what to say to that.

Crunch!

Suddenly, spider web-like cracks appeared on the surface of the Profound Yin Scepter.

“Shit!” Chu Xiu was so shocked that his soul practically left his body.

He cast aside all reservations, looked at the demonic infant in his arms, and frantically cried out, “Esteemed Holy Infant, please call upon the power sealed within your sea of consciousness! Otherwise, both you and your subordinates are doomed!”

In response, the demonic infant sucked her thumb. Her untainted dark eyes were utterly innocent, and she showed no sign of understanding.

Chu Xiu froze, then realized something. His expression changed dramatically, and he cried out, “Esteemed Holy Infant, don’t tell me you…”

Bang!

Before he could even finish speaking, Su Yi attacked once more. This time, the Profound Yin Scepter contained the will of a Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivator shattered completely.

Immediately afterward, there was a flash of sword light.

Splurt!

Chu Xiu’s head flew through the air.

“If I’d known what had happened to you, how could I have traded my hostages for you?!”

Bitterness and rage were written all over Chu Xiu’s face.

In the last moments before his death, he realized that this was no longer the Holy Infant he was familiar with, the one the Celestial Prison Demon Court worshiped….

Chu Xiu’s headless corpse fell into the water with an audible?plop!

The demonic infant he was carrying would have fallen with him, but Su Yi stretched out his hand and grabbed her first.

Now, Chu Xiu’s entire group of Celestial Prison Demon Court cultivators had fallen in battle!

The seas were turbulent, and the waves were red with blood.

Fragmented corpses and treasures were scattered throughout the surrounding seas. They seemed to quietly proclaim just how brutal the earlier battle had been.

Meanwhile, within the ruins of the Immortals’ Sword House, Ning Sihua, Cha Jin, and?Wen?Lingxue’s hearts swelled with irrepressible emotion.

Over the past few weeks, Chu Xiu had led his subordinates and attempted to invade more than once. Even with Ying Que’s Spiritual Incarnation Realm cultivation, he could at most force Chu Xiu to retreat.

Yet against Su Yi, Chu Xiu and his cronies were no more than clay chickens and porcelain dogs!

This was absolute, one-sided suppression!

Su Yi suddenly spoke up and tossed the baby in his arms toward the distant Heaven-Sealing Formation of the Nine Absolutes. “Fellow Daoist Ning, first, please help me look after this demonic infant.”

Ning Sihua controlled the power of the formation, instantly removing the baby from the battlefield.

From beginning to end, Qing Luo made no attempt to intervene. He was like a spectator, watching all this play out with a smile. He seemed casual and at ease.

When he saw Su Yi send the demonic infant away, Qing Luo finally said with a laugh, “Fellow Daoist Su, it’s just as I said earlier. Both the little reptile I killed and the ants you just squished are unworthy of our notice, not even worth mentioning. If you’re angry, I can apologize to you and capture?you an even?better reptile.”

His tone was casual and understated, with a smile as mellow as a spring breeze. However, he emanated a lofty air of superiority and cold, cruel indifference.

Su Yi turned and looked directly at him. “Even if you get down on your knees and beg, you won’t escape death today.”

He sounded calm and casual, yet utterly decisive. His words left no room for arguments.

“Oh?” said Qing Luo. He fixed his whirlpool-like eyes on Su Yi, and his smile gradually faded.
