Although Gongsun Lan appeared rough and bold, she was actually meticulous.
Having guarded the Changsha Commandery for years and dealt with demons for half her life, she was intimately familiar with the Qi emanating from them.
The demonic aura currently manifesting was definitely not something a Zhonglian Realm Demon King could possess.
Could it be... Mountain Gazing?
What horrified her even more was this.
Just moments ago.
That Grand Princess Your Highness had actually sent the Mountain-Viewing Realm Demon Venerable flying with a single Great Halberd strike from half a street away, treating it like swatting a fly?!
Could it be that this Your Highness truly possessed the Battle Intent comparable to the Mountain Gazing?
Gongsun Lan subconsciously turned her head to look at the young woman beside her.
"Hoo..."
You Wujiang, standing nearby, frowned deeply.
He was not as optimistic as Gongsun Lan.
As a golden robe Inspector who often trained alongside elders in the Department, he knew exactly what the chasm of a single Realm meant.
Seed Lotus and Mountain Gazing.
A single Realm difference was the distance between heaven and earth.
Although Your Highness's Great Halberd strike was powerful, it had gained the advantage through the element of surprise.
But to say she could instantly suppress and kill a Mountain-Viewing Realm Demon Venerable... that was probably a pipe dream.
Just as the two were engrossed in their differing thoughts.
*Buzz—!!!*
A piercing whistle ripped through the air, exploding from within the ruins.
A streak of light shot back.
It headed straight for Jiang Yuechu's face.
Jiang Yuechu's expression remained unchanged; she raised her right hand, fingers slightly spread.
*Clap.*
A crisp sound.
The streak of light, carrying the Myriad Ton Force, instantly froze.
It stopped firmly in the center of her palm.
The Great Halberd shaft trembled slightly, letting out a clear Dragon roar, seemingly asking its master for praise.
Jiang Yuechu flicked her wrist, and the Great Halberd pointed diagonally toward the ground.
Her gaze pierced through the swirling dust and landed on the end of the long street.
The next second.
*Boom—!!!*
The mountainous pile of rubble and ruins suddenly exploded.
The temperature of the street, which had been slightly warm, plummeted.
A thick layer of white frost rapidly crept across the ground at a visible speed.
"Hiss..."
Everyone gasped sharply.
Within the swirling ice crystals.
A figure in plain white slowly walked out.
The plain white long dress was tattered beyond recognition.
Especially over the chest.
The originally delicate cloud-pattern embroidery had been shattered, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin.
The cuffs were also ripped open, and several strips of cloth fluttered weakly in the cold wind.
She looked utterly wretched, like a ruined madwoman.
However.
Not a single person present dared to show the slightest hint of contempt.
On the contrary.
The eyes staring at the damaged figure were filled with shock.
They saw that on the exposed skin.
It was fair and flawless as jade.
Not even a trace of a red mark remained.
Let alone any wounds or bloodstains.
She was actually... completely unharmed!
"Hoo..."
Silver Bone Demon Venerable slowly exhaled a mouthful of foul Qi.
Gone was the previous languor and nonchalance.
She extended a slender finger and gently brushed the shattered fabric over her chest.
"Since I entered the Mountain Gazing, you are the first person who has managed to make me look this wretched..."
"Unforgivable..."
Silver Bone Demon Venerable slowly raised her head.
Her messy hair, dusted with ash, moved without wind.
"You..."
"Are truly unforgivable—!!!"
*Boom—!!!*
The bluestone slabs beneath her feet instantly exploded.
Terrifying Qi waves, like smoke signals, shot straight into the sky.
Under the scouring of this terrifying blood Qi, the surrounding air began to distort.
"This..."
You Wujiang, standing in the distance, his pupils contracted sharply.
"This beast actually follows the Yang Mountain?"
It wasn't just him.
Even the battle-hardened Gongsun Lan's expression changed drastically at this moment.
Although Yao Race cultivation also distinguishes between Yin and Yang.
Yao Race members whose true form is inherently weak, like rabbit demons.
Mostly follow the Yin Mountain Path of absorbing the essence of the sun and moon and cultivating innate Divine Abilities.
Jiang Yuechu tilted her head slightly, her gaze falling upon the Demon Venerable.
A hint of realization flashed in her eyes.
No wonder.
She hadn't held back at all in that previous Great Halberd strike.
The great desolation star-shattering halberd itself was a formidable weapon.
Coupled with her current stats, which were like those of a monster.
The force of this strike.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it could shatter mountains and break peaks.
Yet this rabbit spirit.
Other than having slightly torn clothes and messy hair.
Was completely fine.
"A bit interesting."
Jiang Yuechu's lips curled into a slight smile.
"What if it's the Yang Mountain?"
She flicked her wrist.
The Great Halberd pointed diagonally.
Golden light flowed in her clear, cold eyes, and Battle Intent surged.
I'm here specifically to fight the Yang Mountain!
She spoke plainly to the two people still stunned behind her.
"The remaining two beasts are yours."
Both You Wujiang and Gongsun Lan were startled.
Before they could even react.
*Boom—!!!*
The ground beneath Jiang Yuechu instantly collapsed.
An extremely brilliant golden rainbow shot up from the ground immediately.
Using the extreme speed of the Great Roc's Cloud Path Ten Thousand Miles, she shot up like a sharp sword piercing the firmament.
In the blink of an eye.
She had already transformed into a shooting star on the horizon, fleeing toward the outside of the city.
Silver Bone Demon Venerable slowly raised her head.
Allowing the fierce gale to mess up her dark hair.
The rapidly departing golden light was reflected in her ruby-like eyes.
"Heh..."
"Trying to lure me away to avoid affecting these ants in the city?"
She had originally thought.
This was merely an ignorant young Human Race girl.
Even if she had some tricks, she was just a bug that could be crushed easily.
But now it seemed.
Whether it was the girl's terrifying Physical Body strength or her phenomenal escape speed covering a thousand miles in an instant.
She actually... faintly possessed some strength of the Mountain Gazing.
If she didn't get serious, she might not actually be able to capture her.
Silver Bone Demon Venerable let out a soft laugh.
The next instant.
*Buzz—!!!*
The plain white figure instantly transformed into a deep blue streak of cold light.
Like a maggot attached to the bone.
With a momentum of arriving first despite leaving later, she frantically chased after the direction where the golden rainbow had disappeared!
Two streaks of light.
One gold, one blue.
They tore through the clouds, one after the other, above the Changsha Commandery.
In just the blink of an eye.
Both had vanished at the edge of the sky.
Only the rolling thunder still echoed in the clouds... Luoxiao Mountain Range.
*Whoosh—!!!*
The sound of rushing air arrived.
Immediately following that.
*Boom—!!!*
A deep blue streak of cold light, carrying monstrous fury, crashed down like a falling meteorite onto a platform halfway up the mountain.
The earth shook violently.
A terrifying shockwave instantly swept in all directions.
Once the pervasive smoke and dust dissipated.
The previously smooth mountainside now clearly had a massive crater several yards deep.
Deep within the crater.
Silver Bone Demon Venerable slowly straightened her body.
"Hoo..."
"Hoo..."
"This is truly... damnable!!!"
A dignified Mountain-Viewing Realm Demon Venerable.
Was actually led on a chase for hundreds of miles by a young Human Race girl, like walking a dog!
Every time she burst forth with extreme speed, just about to catch up to the golden rainbow.
The golden rainbow would strangely speed up.
No more, no less.
Just a hair faster than her.
If she slowed down due to exhaustion, the golden rainbow would also slow down.
As if waiting for her.
Even if the Silver Bone Demon Venerable was slow-witted, she understood the trick now.
Fast and slow intermittently, maintaining a tantalizing distance.
Neither letting her catch up nor letting her lose the trail.
What was this supposed to be?
This is f*cking dog training?!
