This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 920 - 700: Xi Xuexian! (2)

This was a silent understanding, even though neither exchanged glances, their actions were clearly understood by each other.

With his junior sister guarding his back, Liang Yi had no worries and fiercely wielded his sword, slashing directly at the image of the Evil Buddha.

Just like last time, countless resentful souls surged from the surface of the Evil Buddha, trying to use the same trick to block the damage brought by Liang Yi's Yuan Zhou.

But this time, Zuo Yongning couldn't remain at ease...

The branches of the Bodhi Tree entwined around the sword gently swayed the moment they sensed the presence of Lost Souls, droplets of crystal-clear dew scattered from the branches, turning into a mist that enveloped the Lost Souls.

Originally, the Lost Souls, with expressions of unbearable pain and silent screams, changed upon contact with the mist. Their tense faces relaxed, and the pained expressions gradually disappeared, as if someone long in darkness finally basked in sunlight, receiving redemption!

The mist continued to spread, and the Lost Souls, showing signs of release on their faces, turned into wisps of green smoke, continuously drifting out from the Evil Buddha's body and dissipating into the air.

These Lost Souls were unable to reincarnate after death, restless, suppressed at the bottom of the River of the Yellow Springs for two epochs, and their resentment and anger became the power source for Zuo Yongning's cultivation of the Hell Path.

Now, under the effect of the Bodhi Origin possessing soul-cleansing properties, the resentment and anger in the hearts of the Lost Souls disappeared entirely, successfully dispersing between heaven and earth, seeking an opportunity for their reincarnation.

Seeing this scene, Zuo Yongning, although prepared, still felt his mind consumed by anger.

Facing the dual Sword Intent combining the Heavenly Vault and Abyss entwining the sword blade, and the Bodhi Origin, which posed a great threat to him as a cultivator of the Hell Path, Zuo Yongning chose to avoid the storm temporarily.

With the Bodhi Origin present, the more he clashed with Liang Yi and Su Youyi, the more Lost Souls would be purified, moving him further away from his goal!

Zuo Yongning raised his fist, and as his fist wind collided harshly with the sword blade, an invisible wave erupted. Seizing the opportunity, he lightly tapped with his right foot, using the momentum of the recoil to escape from the image of the Buddha and flee into the distance.

When Liang Yi sensed something off with the sword blade's touch, Zuo Yongning had already abandoned the image of the Evil Buddha and ran far away.

"I will block the image of the Evil Buddha, senior brother, you pursue him!"

Su Youyi's reassuring voice rang from behind. Although Zuo Yongning had left, the image of the Evil Buddha seemed to have gained self-awareness and still existed between heaven and earth.

Liang Yi relentlessly stepped forward, charging straight for Zuo Yongning.

"Xi Xuexian, block him for me!" Realizing Liang Yi's pursuit from behind, a flash of venomous intent flickered in Zuo Yongning's eyes as he roared.

Although the three formidable cultivators were blocked by Liang Yi's Sword Sect's three gates, Xi Xuexian was still outside. Zuo Yongning had been waiting for this moment, not having Xi Xuexian act before!

Whirl——

The wind and snow ravaged the world anew, instantly enveloping Liang Yi and Zuo Yongning in a domain of wind and snow. The temperature in the void plummeted suddenly, generating ice crystals that exuded a chilling aura mixed with the wind and snow.

Xi Xuexian's figure reappeared before Liang Yi and Zuo Yongning!

"Block him with your life for me!" Joy flashed in Zuo Yongning's eyes as he shouted.

He didn't care about Xi Xuexian's life or death. Though they were cultivators of the same era, even having had some friendships in the past, Xi Xuexian was passively corrupted by the Abyss, while he willingly embraced it. Their statuses were utterly different!

Liang Yi frowned slightly, a tinge of frustration crossing his mind.

"Damn, if I only had more time for one more incense stick..." 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

His Sword Sect's three gates were still imprisoning those three cultivators. Though none were as formidable opponents, suppressing them required some effort, even for him.

Just one more incense stick of time, and he could completely defeat those three cultivators and reapply the Disruption Domain!

Liang Yi halted, confronting the stunning woman revered by the Daoist Immortal seniors seriously.

Among the four, she was no doubt the woman who once subdued half of the Cultivation World and needed to be taken seriously,

"Hahaha! Liang Yi, just wait until I destroy the Bodhi Tree, and let's see how arrogant you can still be!" Zuo Yongning laughed maniacally, passing by the indistinguishable Xi Xuexian.

If the Bodhi Divine Tree restrained him, then he would simply destroy it.

Now, few cultivators on the battlefield could stop him. Even if someone could, he still had the healing Xia Kun on his side, ready to bring out the muscle-bound fighter who only knew how to brawl for defense.

That Bodhi Zen Master was severely wounded; although barely able to control the Bodhi Divine Tree now, judging by the pale complexion, it was clear the effort was taxing, making it impossible to block him.

As Zuo Yongning reveled in thoughts of a bright future, he hadn't noticed Xi Xuexian's mocking and sneering gaze as she lifted her head.

The power accumulated in the wind and snow had now fully concentrated on one spot. With a grand gesture, Xi Xuexian unleashed a tempestuous blizzard enveloping everything.

The target wasn't Liang Yi but Zuo Yongning behind!

The moment Zuo Yongning realized the danger, it was already too late.

He never expected Xi Xuexian to betray him at this moment; the scene not only stunned Zuo Yongning but also caused Gongsun Bai'an and Qiu Feng, who had been watching the battlefield from a distance, to appear visibly shaken.
