Chapter 490: Chapter 150: Witch? No, Demon God!

Boom!!

The ground moved and the mountains shook, the world changed color.

Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan stood in mid-air, both covered in blood, hair somewhat disheveled, clothes torn in many places, revealing multiple wounds.

Below, the back mountain of Cyan Lotus Mountain was a scene of complete devastation, the peaks flattened, the mountain springs evaporated, the forest disappeared.

The battle between the two Nascent Soul Great Cultivators almost sliced half of Cyan Lotus Mountain away!

The two gasped heavily, eyes bloodshot as they glared at each other, faces full of murderous intent.

"Wei Shouyuan, your Supreme Heart Slaying Sword is indeed impressive, but unfortunately, today you will still die here!"

"Heh, Shi Shuhong, don’t think I truly can’t break your body cultivation!"

Another series of loud crashes sounded in the air, as if the mountains and earth were all trembling.

Yet the two displaying their might in the sky did not notice, the back mountain of Cyan Lotus Mountain had been destroyed beyond recognition by them, but the dried-up pond remained perfectly undamaged, seemingly unaffected in the slightest.

Boom!!

Another life-and-death clash, Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan fell from the air, their feet slammed into the rocky ground, eyes fixed intently on each other.

Shi Shuhong sneered, "Wei Shouyuan, you probably only have half your spiritual power left, don’t you?"

Wei Shouyuan snorted coldly, "Shi Shuhong, you’re no different, are you?"

The two were about to continue, when suddenly they both expressed surprise simultaneously, their expressions changed slightly.

They finally noticed the pond.

The surrounding ground was cracked, the mountains leveled, yet that pond was untouched.

"How is this possible?"

"There’s a defense array around the pond! When did it appear?"

Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan’s expressions changed slightly, they immediately began to look around warily.

When they first arrived at the back mountain, there was no array on this pond!

Who could it be?

Shi Shuhong seemed to have realized something, suddenly turned to look at the distant imprisonment array.

Tang was inside, trapped within since the beginning of their fight.

However, now that imprisonment array was gone.

"Where’s the array?"

"Where’s the person?!"

Wei Shouyuan also noticed something wrong, his expression drastically changed, "Escaped?!"

At this moment, a petite figure slowly walked out from the surrounding dust, delicate and charming, with youthful innocence in her eyes, it was Tang, He Zhiqiu’s seemingly frail mistress.

However, at this moment Tang’s face showed no fear or panic.

Her steps were steady, expression calm, slowly walking towards Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan.

"How did you escape from the array?"

Wei Shouyuan was incredulous as he looked at Tang, although she still appeared weak and tender, the feeling she gave was completely different now.

Shi Shuhong’s face turned grim, suddenly said, "You’re not Tang! Who exactly are you?"

Wei Shouyuan was taken aback, then quickly realized, pointed his Immortal Sword at Tang, "I clearly sensed earlier, you’re indeed an Innate Top-grade Spirit Root! Who exactly are you?!"

"I’m naturally not Tang, you ask who she is? Then let me tell you..."

Tang walked very slowly, her voice seemingly coming from the depths of Nine Nether Hell, with a cold and dark smile on her face.

"The first day master brought me up the mountain, senior sister came to welcome me, master called her ’Tang’, later I learned, senior sister’s name was Chun Hongtang."

"I asked senior sister why she was called Chun Hongtang, she said it was because our Cyan Lotus Sect’s ancestor was called Sheng Tanglian, master chose a ’Tang’ from the name, called her Chun Hongtang."

"Master asked what name I liked, I said I only knew my surname was Xia, master said I would be a Saintess in the future, naturally should carry the ancestor’s name, so master named me..."

As Tang slowly stepped forward, her body gradually seemed to grow taller, her features also slowly changed, the delicate oval face transformed into an elegant, dignified, gorgeous oval face, appearance unparalleled, yet her eyes full of murderous intent.

A head of jet black hair fluttered, gradually turning half snow white and half fiery red.

Walking to a distance of three feet from Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan, she finally stopped, those striking red lips spoke the final three words:

"Xia Qinglian."

Instantly, Cyan Lotus Mountain’s back mountain fell into a death-like silence.

Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan’s mouths hung agape, eyes bulging, faces filled with the terror of a nightmare:

"You, you’re... Xia Qinglian?!"

"You, you’re not dead?!"

Shi Shuhong’s legs went weak, nearly collapsing, he retreated repeatedly, face pale as death:

"Don’t come any closer, don’t come any closer!"

Wei Shouyuan’s hands trembled, almost unable to hold his sword, his voice quivered:

"You, you, you’re supposed to be dead, are you an evil spirit?!"

At this moment, those scenes from countless nightmares flooded their minds, growing clearer!

Demon Sect Saintess, Xia Qinglian!

The witch besieged by more than ten late Nascent Soul cultivators, who ended up counter-killing two and almost killed herself!

If not for the assistance of Sect Leader Chen Qingmo and Feiyun Sect leader, using countless Immortal Artifacts to set up a Ninth-Grade Killing Array, everyone would have been slaughtered by her alone!

No, she’s not a witch, she’s basically a Demon God from hell!!

But, this Demon God is supposed to be dead!!

Xia Qinglian’s face was icy, her voice extremely cold, "Shi Shuhong, you killed 169 disciples of Cyan Lotus Sect, 17 disciples’ family members, 7 children, 18 villagers at Cyan Lotus Mountain’s foot."

"Wei Shouyuan, you killed 218 disciples of Cyan Lotus Sect, 23 disciples’ family members, 6 children, 21 villagers at Cyan Lotus Mountain’s foot, including one infant still in swaddling clothes."

"In your hands, countless wronged souls, rivers of blood, today all these wronged souls are present, I shall use your flesh and blood to offer sacrifice to many wandering spirits above!"

Shi Shuhong’s legs trembled, heart shattered, he turned to flee, but discovered within a radius of a mile a huge array enveloped them, he looked back at Xia Qinglian in horror:

"You planned this all along."

Wei Shouyuan’s face was pale, yet he could not believe it: "How is it possible?! Even if He Zhiqiu is your accomplice, how could Ye Xiyue help you set a trap?!"

"Ye Xiyue? Right!" Shi Shuhong’s eyes lit up:

"In the battle at Celestial Ridge Mountain, Ye Xiyue was severely injured, her cultivation fell from Nascent Soul Peak to Foundation Establishment! Xia Qinglian, you should be the same, your cultivation must not have recovered, otherwise why go through such elaborate efforts?"

Wei Shouyuan also realized, the fear in his heart slightly alleviated, he gripped his sword more steadily, stared intently at Xia Qinglian:

"Yes, she probably hasn’t recovered her cultivation! We still have a chance!"

Xia Qinglian remained silent, spiritual power surged over her body, stopping at Golden Core Eighth Layer.

"Golden Core Eighth Layer!"

"She’s only recovered to Golden Core Eighth Layer!"

Wei Shouyuan and Shi Shuhong were ecstatic:

"Although we’re hurt, if we join forces, we definitely have the strength of Nascent Soul Peak!"

"No matter how strong Xia Qinglian is, it’s impossible for her to kill Nascent Soul Peak cultivators at Golden Core Eighth Layer, right!"

"Today, we shall fight here for the world and its people, to eliminate the Demon Sect Saintess!"
