Upon hearing these words.
The surrounding Cultivators, who had originally held a spectator's mindset, all shrunk their necks in apprehension.
A Great Demon Emperor at the late stage of the Denglou Realm... they feared that even if all of them attacked together, they would be no match for him... "I wonder what kind of sin the Lu Clan committed to provoke such a malevolent star?"
Among the crowd, a middle-aged Cultivator dressed in a brocade robe sneered, tucking his hands into his sleeves with a face full of schadenfreude. "Why else? The Lu Clan thought that by joining Mount Qingcheng, they could act without knowing the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth. A few days ago, they brought back treasures from the Immortal Cave of a Chess Playing Great Power. It would have been one thing if they had kept it hidden, but they dared to spread the word with great fanfare, wanting to show off at this Treasure Gathering Assembly... Don't they deserve it?"
Hearing this, although the surrounding people did not voice their agreement, the expressions in most of their eyes were surprisingly consistent.
Over the years, the Lu Clan had relied on the power of Mount Qingcheng to act tyrannically along the edge of the Great Marsh, which had long since displeased many people.
Now, seeing them suffer a setback.
Even if the one coming was a demon... everyone's hearts actually felt a sense of gratification.
However.
This gratification did not last long.
In the distance, a piercing golden light suddenly appeared, tearing through the dim night sky.
Rolling black mist shrouded the horizon, and a scarlet, malevolent light surged within the mist.
Her black robes fluttering slightly, a slender figure stood indifferently in mid-air, looking down at the figure in the center of the flames.
Everyone was stunned.
Who is this... person who doesn't value their life?
Only one person, standing in the shadows, stared fixedly at that figure in the air.
Wearing a bamboo hat, his figure was thin and withered.
It was precisely the survivor from the Pill Cauldron Sect, the stall owner surnamed Zhou.
This woman... others might not recognize her, but how could he not?
Yet now, he saw this woman swaggering out, heading straight for the Demon Emperor Crimson Heaven, who was radiating a terrifying aura.
Stall Owner Zhou's eyelids twitched wildly.
To dare to appear so bluntly before Demon Emperor Crimson Heaven... no wonder she had the confidence to take him to Spirit Mountain to rescue his Sect members.
And at this moment.
As the figure appeared.
The Lu Clan Cultivators were all filled with astonishment, turning their gazes toward her.
Which path... does this person come from?
Demon Emperor Crimson Heaven also tilted his wolf head slightly, his nostrils twitching.
He subconsciously asked, "A member of the Lu Clan?"
Although he was arrogant and believed he could suppress a mere Lu Clan with one hand.
He was, after all, not a brainless fool.
Before coming to Qifeng Ridge, he had already thoroughly investigated the Lu Clan's background.
But when did the Lu Clan... produce such a character?
Facing the Demon Emperor's questioning.
The young woman simply stood quietly in the Void Realm.
Her black hair danced wildly, and her sleeves fluttered.
She slowly shook her head, her expression extremely calm.
"I am not."
Demon Emperor Crimson Heaven narrowed his golden pupils. "Then who are you?"
"A passerby who sees injustice and draws her blade to help."
"..."
Demon Emperor Crimson Heaven was slightly taken aback, then laughed out of extreme anger.
His mouth split open, revealing the sharp fangs within, and scarlet demon fire erupted from his seven orifices.
"You dare play with me?"
Jiang Yuechu did not reply.
She only slowly stretched her body.
*Crack.*
Beneath her cracking skin, a piercing red light burst forth.
At the same time.
Two streams of flowing cloud-white mist emerged out of thin air behind her, like Immortal ribbons, coiling around her shoulders.
In the next instant.
The cry of a fox reached their ears.
A moment of daze flashed through Demon Emperor Crimson Heaven's eyes.
It was only a split second of distraction.
By the time the Demon Emperor regained his senses, where was there any sign of the young woman before him?
The scarlet mane on his back instantly stood on end, and he subconsciously looked behind him.
He saw a fist carrying silver-purple lightning and rolling black mist already whistling toward him, straight for his face!
What incredible speed!
The Demon Emperor roared, and his wolf head jerked to one side.
The fist grazed past his cheek.
Just being touched by a sliver of the fist's wind.
Demon Emperor Crimson Heaven felt a burst of intense pain from half of his cheek.
In the place struck by the fist's wind, the flesh dissolved, and even the white bones were not left behind!
In this split second where life and death were decided.
Demon Emperor Crimson Heaven made the most ruthless decision.
To abandon his Physical Body.
*Boom—!!!*
Mist surged.
A scarlet wolf shadow, hundreds of feet tall, broke free from the shattered skin.
The wolf shadow was entirely scarlet, and its golden pupils flashed with a cold chill.
Having already abandoned his skin, he no longer had any misgivings.
"Die!"
A thunderous roar shook the Void Realm.
Scarlet claws that blotted out the sun smashed down toward the tiny young woman.
At the same time.
*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—*
A shrill wind-whistle suddenly rose.
A prairie-burning demon fire erupted from around the wolf shadow's body.
This fire was as if it had intelligence, spiraling and intertwining in the air to form a net of fire.
Up, down, left, right, in all directions.
It completely sealed off all of the young woman's paths of retreat.
This was the method of a Great Demon Emperor at the late stage of the Denglou Realm.
Once he made a move, it was a certain kill.
The change happened too quickly.
It wasn't until the Demon Emperor's Primordial Spirit appeared.
That the dazed members of the Lu Clan suddenly regained their senses.
An Elder's face was pale, yet he gave a sharp shout: "What are you still looking at? Do you really think she's here to perform a play for us?!"
"Attack!"
With the command given.
The Lu Clan members, who had been intimidated by Demon Emperor Crimson Heaven's ferocity, finally woke up.
Now that someone had stepped in to help, how could they just stand by and watch?!
"Activate the Formation!"
The Elder's hand seals changed as fast as an afterimage.
*Buzz—*
The Southern Dipper Six Stars Formation covering Qifeng Ridge emitted a dull rumble.
The starlight that had originally fallen on the Lu Clan members suddenly shifted.
"Go!"
The Old Ancestor pointed with his fingers.
The starlight from the sky gathered into a beam, piercing through the rolling demon fire and black smoke, landing directly on the figure in black robes surrounded by the fire net.
The starlight entered her body.
Vitality flowed, and her aura became inexhaustible.
For the Lu Clan to have survived until today, their discernment was naturally extraordinary.
The strength of the young woman who had suddenly come to their aid was undoubtedly much stronger than that of the Lu Clan members.
Only by concentrating all the effects of the Formation on her could they achieve the maximum result.
At the same time.
*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—*
Several streaks of light soared into the sky from various corners.
Several Lu Clan Elders, whose cultivation was in the Denglou Realm, also no longer held back.
They unleashed various methods.
Blasting toward that giant scarlet wolf shadow.
Even if they couldn't severely injure the demon.
As long as they could distract him and throw his Formation into chaos.
However.
Faced with this overwhelming offensive.
That towering scarlet wolf shadow didn't even turn its head once.
He allowed the Lu Clan's attacks to strike his Primordial Spirit body.
They created ripples, but it was difficult to harm his foundation.
The giant golden pupils stared fixedly at the figure in the center of the fire net.
In his eyes, there was only indifference and the determination to kill.
Ants, no matter how many there were, were just an itch.
Only the person before him.
Was the true serious threat.
She must die!
Jiang Yuechu was about to dodge when she suddenly raised an eyebrow.
The True Qi that she had consumed slightly was actually being replenished into her body continuously.
And her recovery ability, which had been somewhat strained due to activating the Crescent Moon Blade, also surged instantly at this moment.
To the point that the recovery momentum completely overwhelmed the devouring of the malevolent weapon.
Is this... the Southern Dipper Six Stars Formation?
She glanced sideways at the Lu Clan members in the distance who were desperately driving the Formation.
She no longer dodged.
The young woman stepped into the air and stopped her figure.
Allowing the overwhelming, prairie-burning demon fire to unscrupulously lick her entire body.
