Chen Li saw the figure that appeared out of nowhere and almost rolled off the back of the giant eagle, rushing to Old Hag's side. With a thud, he knelt down, crying out, "Guardian Elder! Please save Lin Xuan and everyone!"
At that moment, a small figure ran up to Old Hag's side, hugging her leg tightly. Shen Qingyue looked up with her porcelain doll-like face, tears shimmering in her big eyes as she gazed at her pitifully.
Duan Jing had just emerged from the teleportation array and was still trying to grasp the situation when this sudden turn of events left her stunned. The heavy scent of blood and overwhelming Demonic Energy made her frown deeply. Looking down, she saw the two pitiful children, one looking delicate and calm, while the other appeared utterly helpless, both staring at her with wide eyes.
Even after living for hundreds of years and experiencing countless storms, Duan Jing felt her heart soften at this moment, a strong urge to protect rising within her. "Don't be afraid, little ones. I won't let anything happen to you," she said gently, patting Shen Qingyue's head. A wave of gentle spiritual energy enveloped the two children, shielding them from the encroaching Demonic Energy.
"Guardian Elder, hurry! Save Lin Xuan and our seniors!" Chen Li urged frantically, gesturing toward the center of the valley.
Duan Jing then noticed that the Demonic Energy in the valley was surging like a black tide, threatening to engulf a group of desperate Cultivators. Their attire unmistakably belonged to the disciples of the Imperial Academy!
"Hmph! Those ignorant demons dare to harm my Imperial Academy's people!" A glint of cold light flashed in Duan Jing's eyes as she waved her sleeve, revealing an ancient long ruler in her hand.
This ruler was entirely emerald green, radiating a shimmering glow, with intricate runes carved along its length as if it contained the principles of heaven and earth. A vast and overwhelming aura emanated from it, causing the surrounding space to subtly distort.
This was Duan Jing's life-bound magical treasure, the Heaven Measuring Ruler. It was said to be crafted from ancient divine wood and possessed incredible powers. It could shrink distances or extend across miles; it could measure heaven and earth and suppress all creation.
"Little ones, stay behind me," Duan Jing instructed as she shielded the two children. With a gentle wave of the Heaven Measuring Ruler in her hand, a brilliant green light shot forth instantly like a lightning bolt slicing through the night sky, heading straight for the center of the swirling Demonic Energy!
Boom!
A tremendous sound erupted as the green light collided with the Demonic Energy, unleashing earth-shattering waves of energy. The Demonic Energy in the valley was torn apart by an invisible hand, revealing a massive void.
The Demon Lord and Divine Soul were startled by this sudden attack and quickly retreated to avoid it. "Who dares to ruin This Lord's plans?" roared the Demon Lord angrily, raising a massive black axe high above his head as a pillar of black Demonic Energy shot up into the sky.
"I am Duan Jing, Guardian Elder of the Imperial Academy!" Duan Jing's voice boomed like a great bell, echoing throughout the valley. "You demon kin dare to harm my human race? Come and face me!"
"Guardian Elder? Hmph! Just an old hag, daring to be arrogant before This Lord!" The Demon Lord's panic eased slightly upon seeing the Old Hag.
With a disdainful snort, he declared, "Today, I will show you the might of This Lord!"
With that, the Demon Lord swung his massive black axe and charged at Duan Jing once more.
Unfazed, Duan Jing wielded her Heaven Measuring Ruler with grace, a green light dancing like a spirit snake.
The powers of the Demon Lord and the Elder clashed in an explosive display. The Demon Lord's axe shattered instantly under the impact of the Heaven Measuring Ruler, its fragments falling like black snowflakes.
Duan Jing haughtily scoffed, "A mere demon soul dares to act recklessly before me! If I don't beat you to the point where you can't return to your Dungeon, I won't be surnamed Duan!"
As she spoke, the Old Hag's figure flickered and she swiftly pursued the Divine Soul of the Heavenly Pillar Demon Marquis.
The Heavenly Pillar Demon Marquis was taken aback and stammered, "Y-you’re a Spirit Wheel Realm Cultivator! How did you appear here?"
While swinging her Heaven Measuring Ruler, Duan Jing retorted fiercely, "Where I go is none of your business! Just watch as I beat you to death!"
With that, countless illusory images of the Heaven Measuring Ruler descended upon him. The previously arrogant Heavenly Pillar Demon Marquis was now howling in panic as he clutched his head and fled.
He had lost all confidence and could only escape frantically toward Chen Ming and the others.
Many students witnessing this scene couldn't help but cheer.
"Guardian Elder is amazing!"
Shen Qingyue waved her little hands excitedly.
Chen Li let out a slight sigh of relief.
Hearing the children's cheers, Duan Jing's lips curled into a slight smile, and her attacks became even more ferocious.
"A demon soul like you is no match for me! Today, I will seal you once again!" Duan Jing taunted as her Heaven Measuring Ruler suddenly elongated, coiling around the Demon Lord like a giant green python.
The Demon Lord was horrified and hurriedly swung his axe to defend himself but found that his strength couldn't budge the Heaven Measuring Ruler in the slightest.
How is this possible?! The Demon Lord's eyes widened in terror as he watched helplessly as the Heaven Measuring Ruler wrapped around him tightly.
"Overestimating yourself!" Duan Jing snorted coldly as she tightened her grip on the Heaven Measuring Ruler. The Demon Lord's body emitted cracking sounds as bones began to break.
"Ah!" The Demon Lord let out a chilling scream as his body trembled violently.
At that moment, no one noticed that Chen Ming flicked his fingers, sending an invisible point of light flying toward the shadow of the Demon Lord. In an instant, the figure of the Heavenly Pillar Demon Marquis transformed into a Black Light and fled toward the valley's exit.
"Wait for me, This Lord will eventually extract your souls!" The sharp voice of the Heavenly Pillar Demon Marquis echoed through the valley, filled with deep resentment and unwillingness.
In a flash of Black Light, his Divine Soul completely vanished, leaving behind only a faint trace of Demonic Energy in the air, reminiscent of a foul smell like rotten eggs that made one feel nauseous.
Duan Jing slowly descended from the air, her Heaven Measuring Ruler shrinking back to its normal size, held in her hand as if it had lost its brilliance. She sighed heavily, her tone filled with confusion. "What a pity. He was clearly trapped by my Heaven Measuring Ruler; how could he still escape? Have I grown weak?"
She looked around; the once thick Demonic Energy had dissipated almost entirely, leaving only some withered plants that had been eroded by it. A group of Imperial Academy students was gathering nearby, their faces showing relief after surviving the ordeal.
Everyone expressed their gratitude. "Thank you, Guardian Elder, for saving us!"
Duan Jing waved her hand dismissively. "Exorcising demons is simply what I should do."
After saying this, she turned her head to look at the previously mentioned handsome young boy. The boy gazed intently in another direction and said seriously, "Guardian Elder, it wasn't your fault; there must be an insider among us helping him!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the flattery in the valley fell silent. Everyone's gaze turned toward the direction of the Holy Spirit Palace.
