The Dazzling New Star of the Heroes of the Martial World
Above Wind and Rain Valley, numerous ghosts rushed out from the Lingxie Demon Domain through the Time-Space Rift. The ghosts were ethereal and illusory, with countless lights and shadows darting everywhere. In a moment, large groups of ghosts invaded nearby villages, and cries of despair echoed within. After a series of horrific wails, a deathly silence enveloped the entire village.
Within the village, many innocent villagers had already met a tragic end. The ghosts devoured the souls of anyone they encountered; this method of slaughter without bloodshed was unique to the ghosts. Corpses littered the ground, and the faces of the deceased villagers bore expressions of unimaginable fear, enough to inform people that a monstrous being had once appeared here like a demon.
After slaughtering the village, the ghosts continued their rampage, killing innocent civilians at a speed of ten miles in a moment. Evil Demon Reincarnation and Demon Among Demons inspected their achievements in the wake of the ghosts' passage. Demon Among Demons said, "Soon, the entire martial world will fall into our hands."
Outside the Lyricism Sect, Xia Zhouyi joined forces with Zhuge Kongming and others from the Martial Arts Community to challenge them. Eternal Sovereign, Duanmu Chong, and Crane-Haired Youthful Face were heavily injured and unable to fight. Years Leave No Trace, Divine Turtle Eternal Life, and Eternal Earth led the charge into battle. There were no words exchanged between both sides; only combat lay ahead. Xia Zhouyi slashed at Years Leave No Trace with his sword, Zhuge Kongming pointed his sword at Divine Turtle Eternal Life, Sima Qian thrust his spear at Eternal Earth, while Fan Buzhao and others faced other disciples of Eternal Years.
Although Xia Zhouyi was overweight, he was still the President of the Famous Sword Society; his swordsmanship was pure and his inner strength formidable. Years Leave No Trace was the top swordsman of Eternal Years, with extraordinary skills in swordsmanship and a solid foundation as well. The two fought fiercely, causing day to turn into night and obscuring all light. Xia Zhouyi gathered energy into his sword to compensate for his speed disadvantage, charging towards Years Leave No Trace with overwhelming force. Years Leave No Trace swung his sword, sending shockwaves across mountains and shaking countless peaks; his powerful sword energy directly clashed with Xia Zhouyi's attack. The two swords met with a shocking explosion; both were stunned as cracks formed beneath their feet, retreating four steps as six corpses lay scattered around them. The dazzling display left everyone in awe as six disciples of Eternal Years were caught off guard by the residual force and perished on the spot. Xia Zhouyi's move not only showcased the power expected from the President of the Famous Sword Society but also left those from Eternal Years in shock.
Zhuge Kongming launched a rapid attack on Divine Turtle Eternal Life with his sword palm; it was a battle of speed and life or death. Divine Turtle Eternal Life thrust his long spear quickly, spinning it to prevent Zhuge Kongming from finding an opening while also relying on his impenetrable turtle shell for defense. In this battle, Divine Turtle Eternal Life held the upper hand; even though Zhuge Kongming unleashed a series of rapid attacks with clever techniques, he could not harm Divine Turtle Eternal Life in any way. The situation gradually tilted in favor of Divine Turtle Eternal Life.
Sima Qian faced off against Eternal Earth, who wielded a long whip; both were evenly matched in strength and fought fiercely without yielding ground. Sima Qian spun his spear back to attack while exerting pressure on his opponent. Eternal Earth wielded his whip fluidly, exuding soft energy that shook those before him.
Fan Buzhao, Hua Mulan, Chen Qi, and others inflicted heavy casualties on other disciples of Eternal Years, forcing them to retreat back into Lyricism Sect. This allowed Fan Buzhao and others to join forces against Years Leave No Trace, Divine Turtle Eternal Life, and Eternal Earth; as a result, those from Eternal Years found themselves in dire straits. Just as victory seemed imminent, the Ghost Army from Lingxie Demon Domain rampaged forth. The ghosts attacked anyone they saw with the intent to devour their souls. Seeing this development, everyone had no choice but to abandon their fight against those from Eternal Years and shift their focus to attacking the Ghost Army instead. In order to survive, those from Eternal Years could only confront the Ghost Army simultaneously.
Xia Zhouyi and others unleashed their Qigong directly at the Ghost Army. The multitude of ghosts surged like waves, attacking relentlessly without giving anyone a moment's respite. After just a brief period of holding on, everyone was drenched in cold sweat. Several members of the Martial Arts Community found themselves overwhelmed and became among the first casualties under the assault of the Ghost Army. Zhuge Kongming and others struggled to hold on as they gradually fell into perilous situations. Divine Turtle Eternal Life could no longer withstand it and had no choice but to retreat into his rock-solid shell for protection. However, ghosts did not attack physically but rather targeted souls; thus this action was ineffective against them. After losing their defense, the Ghost Army swarmed like countless ants devouring Divine Turtle Eternal Life's soul. In an instant, Divine Turtle Eternal Life perished on the spot; his head and limbs still retracted within his shell made for a peculiar sight.
Years Leave No Trace shot out blade energy that killed countless ghosts; yet there were still thousands more—one wave of attacks had barely ceased when another wave came crashing down again. With no other options left, Years Leave No Trace said: "Everyone quickly retreat into Lyricism Sect."
Xia Zhouyi and Zhuge Kongming along with others from Martial Arts Community also found themselves at a loss against the Ghost Army; for their survival they could only follow those from Eternal Years into retreat within Lyricism Sect.
In the Inner Courtyard of the Lyricism Sect, the Martial Arts Community and the people of Eternal Years stood back to back in a circle. The Ghost Army surged in from all directions, and everyone quickly unleashed their sword energies or Qigong to fend off the ghosts, resulting in a stalemate. At this moment, Evil Demon Reincarnation and Demon Among Demons arrived on the scene. Evil Demon Reincarnation said, "Eternal Years will perish today, but there are still many from the Central Plains Martial Arts Community accompanying us, so this trip is not in vain." After speaking, he unleashed the sinister technique Devour Living Beings with a sudden strike. Although Xia Zhouyi and the others tried to counter with their techniques, they had already exhausted their strength fighting for a long time and then risking their lives against the Ghost Army. Now, their Inner Strength was nearly depleted, and facing Evil Demon Reincarnation's powerful Qigong, they could only retreat in defeat.
Evil Demon Reincarnation broke through the defense line of the Martial Arts Community and the people of Eternal Years, causing everyone to spit blood and sustain injuries. At the same time, the Ghost Army continued to attack the wounded. Just when everyone's lives were in danger, a palm energy from within the Inner Hall of the Lyricism Sect killed many ghosts, followed by a voice calling out, "Everyone quickly retreat."
Demon Among Demons heard this and said, "That is the voice of Eternal Sovereign. However, escaping is not that easy. Take this!" After finishing his words, Evil Energy formed a black sphere in his hand, mixed with ghosts, and struck towards everyone with a loud bang. At this moment, Chen Qi stepped forward to protect Xia Zhouyi, exhausting all his life’s power to deliver a life-saving strike. However, his feeble strength was unable to shake a tree; Chen Qi was instantly shattered by an energy strong enough to destroy the earth, leaving no bones behind. The others were also hit by the energy blast and were thrown dozens of feet away from the Lyricism Sect, sustaining severe injuries.
Everyone stood up one after another. Zhuge Kongming said, "Let's split up and meet at Dreaming Medical Pavilion in the end."
Xia Zhouyi was still grieving over Chen Qi's death. Fan Buzhao said, "Chen Qi sacrificed himself for everyone; he died honorably! What we need to do now is to preserve our lives so that we may have a chance for revenge in the future. Let's go!" Thus, everyone split up and fled.
Years Leave No Trace and Eternal Earth also fled in different directions while being pursued relentlessly by numerous ghosts. Inside the Lyricism Sect, Evil Demon Reincarnation and Demon Among Demons entered the Inner Hall intending to kill Eternal Sovereign to vent their hatred but found no trace of Eternal Sovereign inside. Evil Demon Reincarnation said, "It seems that Eternal Sovereign has long since escaped. However, a dying person cannot stir up any storms; let’s continue to occupy other places in the martial world."
Many from the Martial Arts Community raced through the wilderness while the Ghost Army pursued them in different directions as well. Seeing that fewer ghosts were chasing him down, Xia Zhouyi endured his injuries and gathered his remaining energy; although he had only one-tenth of his Inner Strength left, it was more than enough to deal with these ghosts. With a flash of his blade and a surge of blade energy, many ghosts were struck down instantly. Seeing their forces dwindle, the remaining ghosts retreated on their own. After striking out with his blade, Xia Zhouyi's internal injuries worsened; he spat blood and fainted on the ground.
Zhuge Kongming and others from the Martial Arts Community fled while simultaneously attacking the pursuing ghosts. The ghosts showed no fear as they charged directly at Zhuge Kongming. Just at that critical moment, a Taoist Sect Qigong came soaring through the air, resolving Zhuge Kongming's group's crisis. The ghosts suffered heavy casualties and began to flee in panic. Zhuge Kongming and others saved their lives and then headed towards Dreaming Medical Pavilion.
Inside Drunken Red Mansion, Supreme Blade and other lecherous individuals broke free from their bindings and seized weapons to start a massacre. Boss Tao Yuanliang personally intervened to stop those causing trouble while Yi Junsheng took advantage of the chaos to head upstairs in search of Dreamy Beauty. Yi Junsheng arrived at a room marked with Dreamy Beauty's name; he pushed open the door only to find her bathing. Yi Junsheng entered and closed the door behind him saying, "Demoness, I have finally found you. Today you will pay for your actions."
Dreamy Beauty smiled and replied, "Once resembling Pan An's White Face, now your face bears an indelible scar; how delightful it is! I have ruined your life; now you want to kill me without any resentment? However, just like last time when I wanted to kill you at Eighteen Floors—can you help Dreamy Consort fulfill her last wish?"
After pondering for a moment, Yi Junsheng asked, "What is your last wish?"
Dreamy Beauty replied: "My wish is for you to spend one night with me; that way I can die with my eyes closed. How about it? Will you grant my wish?"
Yi Junsheng Yun: "Alright, since you were born, I will let you go to your death in peace."
Dreamy Beauty reached out her hand to Yi Junsheng, making a seductive gesture, saying: "Since you have agreed, then enter the wooden tub and bathe with me to cleanse the dirt from your body."
Yi Junsheng: "If you want me to come, I will come. Do you think I'm afraid?" With that, Yi Junsheng took off his clothes and stepped into the large wooden tub, turning his back to Dreamy Beauty, bathing together with his enemy and a beauty.
Dreamy Beauty gently rubbed Yi Junsheng's back with her delicate hands. At this moment, Yi Junsheng's masculine impulses were ignited. He turned around, pressing his lips against Dreamy Beauty's cherry-like red lips, wrapping his arms around her, causing her entire body to lean into Yi Junsheng's embrace. However, Yi Junsheng's condition had not yet healed, and just as he was about to engage in intimacy, his body trembled, his face tightened, and the bathing water suddenly became much thicker. Seeing this, Dreamy Beauty said: "This is all Dreamy Consort's fault. White Face, your man's vigor no longer exists; how will you marry and have children now?"
Yi Junsheng: "Damn Demoness, are you mocking me? Let me tell you, I will not only cure my condition but also remove the scars on my face; however, you won't be able to see that."
Dreamy Beauty: "Yes, I know I am about to die."
Yi Junsheng stood up from the tub and dried his body with a towel. He grabbed Dreamy Beauty, casually wiped her down a bit, and then threw her harshly onto the couch. Yi Junsheng: "Did you not want to spend the night with me? Then let's start now." With that, Yi Junsheng lunged at the freshly emerged beauty.
Dreamy Beauty, full of temptation, with her proud curves and deep valleys, her tender skin was irresistible. Unable to revive his masculine vigor, Yi Junsheng could only torment the beauty before him.
