How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!

Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng had discussed earlier and decided to head to Lingjian Sect first to confront the higher-ups and clear their names.

After all, bearing criminal charges and possessing precious treasures, anyone could openly attack them and even threaten those around them.

If there were no war in Beiyuan now, everyone aware of this affair would swarm to hunt down Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng.

Having made their decision, the two did not stay long in the Yunyue Sect and prepared to head for the Lingjian Sect.

Before departure,

"Brother, I'm giving this to you!"

Chen Yu thought of something and took out the sword talisman he had acquired a few days ago.

"This… absolutely not!"

Chang Xuan's expression changed drastically, and he immediately refused.

This sword talisman, specifically crafted by Lv Tiezu to target Chen Yu, could unleash a force damaging enough to the Guiyuan Realm and even had the potential to kill someone in that realm if used correctly.

Such a powerful trump card, yet Chen Yu was giving it to him, a Late Innate Qi Transformation Realm practitioner; it was far too valuable.

"With my strength, this sword talisman isn't of much use to me!"

Chen Yu said truthfully.

"Junior brother, you should keep it. Your situation is quite dangerous right now."

Chang Xuan thought Chen Yu was just being modest. After all, Chen's peak prowess was at the Innate Peak, and if the talisman could harm someone in the Guiyuan Realm, how could it be of no use to Chen?

In Chang Xuan's mind, the difference between the Qi Transformation Realm and the Guiyuan Realm was like that between adults and children, utterly incomparable.

Chen Yu could easily defeat Elder Wei, Iron Sword Sect Master, and other such powerful figures, but against a Guiyuan Realm powerhouse, he would probably have no chance of resisting.

"Brother, stop refusing. The battlefield is unpredictable; at a critical moment, this sword talisman could turn the tide and save many lives!"

Eventually, Chang Xuan accepted the sword talisman and carefully stored it in his storage bag.

After completing this, Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng, got a flying mount from the Yunyue Sect.

Whiz! Whiz!

The two leaped onto a "Skyhawk," ready to head to Lingjian Sect in the Qi Country.

But at that moment.

A deep roar echoed, shaking most of the Yunyue Sect.

The Skyhawk beneath Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng's feet immediately shivered and curled up, crying lowly.

Swoosh!

From deep within the sect, the Yunyue Sect Master and some high-ranking officials flew out together.

They saw a huge dark-brown Lion Hawk descending from the sky; its broad wings stirred up a strong wind current, sending sand and stones flying.

Atop the Lion Hawk stood two elders.

One of them Chen Yu recognized – it was Elder Pan, whose cultivation he had ruined with a single palm strike.

The other elder was lean and bony, with only a few strands of hair on his head, but his eyes were piercingly sharp, exuding a tremendous oppressive force.

"Lingjian Sect!"

Upon seeing Elder Pan, the Yunyue Sect Master recognized the identity of the other elder.

He could feel that despite being in the Late Innate stage, the emaciated elder was stronger than himself.

"So this is the Yunyue Sect that depends on our Lingjian Sect?"

The emaciated elder looked down disdainfully, lightly glancing over with slight scorn.

At the same time, with that glance, he instantly spotted Ye Luofeng.

"Nephew Ye, where were you planning to flee?"

The emaciated elder couldn't help but let out a strange laugh.

In his view, Ye Luofeng was surely trying to escape upon hearing that he was coming. Hence, he rode a flying mount, planning to flee.

Unfortunately for Ye Luofeng, the elder had ridden the sect's faster Lion Hawk and had arrived before Ye could escape.

Thinking this made the elder even more smug.

If he had arrived a bit later, Ye Luofeng would have escaped.

Now he had successfully intercepted Ye Luofeng, and it was all going to end.

"Elder Xu? Why would I, Ye Luofeng, need to flee?"

Ye Luofeng snorted coldly, feeling somewhat annoyed inside.

"Ha ha ha, you and a disciple from his sect secretly swallowed treasures, injured the Supreme Elder of our sect, committing such heinous acts. What else can you do but constantly flee?"

The lean elder, "Elder Xu," laughed loudly.

"Elder Xu, that person next to Ye Luofeng is Chen Yu, he's the one who ruined my cultivation!"

At this moment, Elder Pan alongside Elder Xu spoke up. His eyes, small as mung beans, emitted a chilling gleam like a venomous snake, staring intently at Chen Yu.

Having his cultivation destroyed by Chen Yu, living revenge was all Elder Pan had left; he was determined to get his revenge.

Accordingly, after his cultivation was destroyed, he had people escort him back to the Lingjian Sect.

Upon returning to the Lingjian Sect, Elder Pan reported the matter to Elder Xu.

Then, Elder Xu borrowed the sect's Lion Hawk and hurried over with him.

With Elder Xu's strength, he was surely able to exact revenge; of course, Elder Pan would persuade Elder Xu not to kill Chen Yu, but rather to cripple his cultivation.

"Oh? Are you the one who obtained the Moon Spirit Ore Mother?"

Elder Xu's eyes shone brightly, looking at Chen Yu with interest.

This trip was truly worthwhile; he could eliminate two traitors at once and acquire the Heavenly Que Sword and Moon Spirit Ore Mother.

Even further, a thought emerged in Elder Xu's mind: taking these two treasures and escaping far away. After all, with these items, his future achievements had the potential to surpass the strongest Supreme Elder of the Lingjian Sect.

"Elder Xu, am I to be declared a sect traitor just on the word of Elder Chai?"

Ye Luofeng asked sharply, with a piercing gaze.

"Hehe, of course not, which is why I personally came here to capture you and bring you back for questioning!"

Elder Xu's sinister smile emerged.

Swish!

The moment he finished speaking, his figure soared into the air, a rusty long sword appearing in his hand.

As long as I can obtain the Heavenly Que Sword and the Moon Spirit Ore Mother, nothing else matters; even a genius like Ye Luofeng can be sacrificed.

"Ye Luofeng, let this elder see what progress you have made over the years."

Elder Xu gave a faint smile and swung his sword in a downward chop.

Swoosh!

A pale sword light dragged a series of sword shadows, slashing down.

Ye Luofeng's face was icy cold, and without a word, a jade sword appeared in her hand.

With a casual slash, a semi-transparent Azure Darkness Sword Light surged out rapidly.

Ding! Pong!

The two sword lights collided like lightning, but shockingly, Elder Xu's powerful sword light was immediately cleaved in two.

"This... impossible!"

Elder Xu's face changed drastically, and he exclaimed in horror.

Even if Ye Luofeng was exceptionally talented and had obtained the Heavenly Que Sword, how could she have grown so quickly in just five short years? Her strength had actually caught up to his own.

Elder Pan also suddenly opened his mouth wide; he suddenly felt that things might not develop as he had anticipated.

"Nephew Ye, it seems the Heavenly Que Sword has brought you many benefits, and your cultivation has improved to such an extent. However, I was afraid of hurting you with that strike just now, so I only used sixty percent of my power."

Elder Xu's face returned to normal, his expression now more cautious.

"Try this elder's sword again!"

Elder Xu's True Qi surged wildly within his body as his long sword emitted a pale halo around it, exuding astonishing Sword Intent.

Swoosh!

His long sword suddenly shot out, with a massive void sword shadow condensing around it.

The flying long sword gave an unbearably sharp sensation, as if it could penetrate everything.

From behind, high-ranking members of the Yunyue Sect, watching from a distance, felt powerless; many Yunyue Sect disciples felt a tingling sensation and retreated one after another.

Ye Luofeng looked at this sword, her expression even colder.

This sword was almost Elder Xu's strongest strike; it seemed he had murderous intentions toward her.

As an elder, acting to kill her without seeking the true facts, this made Ye Luofeng somewhat heartbroken.

Instantly, her eyes sharpened, cold as ice, and she swung her sword fiercely.

A deep Azure Darkness Sword Light, dragging a light blue sword aura, slashed out.

Ye Luofeng's strike was profound, containing some peculiar ethos.

Ding Dang!

With a single slash, Elder Xu's long sword trembled, and its momentum was sharply reduced.

The next moment, that heavy Azure Darkness Sword Light pressed down, completely engulfing Elder Xu's offensive.

Simultaneously, a few fine shards of Azure Darkness Sword Light scattered and flew towards Elder Xu.

"How could this be?"

Elder Xu was greatly frightened; he could not believe that his peak strike was still defeated by Ye Luofeng.

Having lost his sword, Elder Xu hurriedly dodged, but his robes were still sliced in two places.

At this moment, Elder Xu's mind was a blur, totally unsure of what to say.

He had come to Yunyue Sect full of confidence, intending to show off his power, deal with two traitors, and seize the treasures.

But how could it end like this?

At this time, Elder Xu truly wished to send a message to Ye Luofeng, asking her to leave him some face.

But just now, he had harbored murderous intents toward Ye Luofeng; surely she would not agree to his request, and to do so would only be humiliating himself.

Well, at this point, he had already been severely humiliated by Ye Luofeng.

"Right, this guy is a disciple of the Yunyue Sect, and I heard that his cultivation was not even at the Qi Transformation Realm..."

While Elder Xu was in his awkward and sorrowful state, he suddenly noticed Chen Yu standing behind Ye Luofeng.

Buzz!

Elder Xu reached out and his sword returned to his hand.

"Nephew Ye, I didn't expect you to already possess such strength; it seems the Heavenly Que Sword truly is extraordinary. As a disciple of the Lingjian Sect, with such talent and strength, I can plead for leniency on your behalf when I return to the sect."

Elder Xu's attitude changed drastically, speaking righteously.

After finishing his statement, he looked at Chen Yu and smiled slightly: "But Chen Yu, you cannot leave; you attacked and injured Elder Chai in the Moon Mine. Come back to the Lingjian Sect with me to apologize."

Elder Xu stared at Chen Yu, releasing an immense oppressive force.

Having lost to Ye Luofeng in two moves, he was utterly humiliated.

Fortunately, he could regain some face from Chen Yu.

However, under Elder Xu's formidable pressure, Chen Yu seemed completely unaffected, simply looking at him with a faint smile.

"Sigh..."

Seeing this scene, Ye Luofeng couldn't help but sigh and had no desire to say more.

"Oh? You do have some skill to remain unflustered under my pressure."

Elder Xu uttered a light exclamation; he decided not to waste words with Chen Yu and directly attacked.

Swoosh!

With a swing of his long sword, several pale sword lights flew toward Chen Yu.

"Ungrateful."

Chen Yu snorted coldly and leaped forward.

Seeing Chen Yu suddenly jump toward his sword strike, Elder Xu thought to himself, 'Does this Chen Yu have something wrong with his brain?'

This action, wasn't it akin to courting death or suicide? He could even envision Chen Yu being minced into pieces by his sword strike.

But that was even better; he could at least salvage some face. Elder Xu couldn't help but smile.

But the next moment, his smile froze.

Boom, boom!

It was seen that his powerful sword strikes, when they hit Chen Yu, were like eggs smashing against a rock, instantly shattering.
