My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Chapter 226 The Disarray of Shangguan Yuyang

Chilian's sharp teeth were about to close, and Zhongren could even see the remnants of flesh and blood in the sharp gaps between her teeth.

Witnessing this scene, Zhongren's eyes sharpened, raising the Primordial Sword aloft.

In the air, a bright light flashed, instantly transforming into a colossal beam of light, ten miles wide, rushing forward!

The beam of light surged forward, spreading like a trumpet-shaped flare. By the time it reached Chilian, its width had expanded to a thousand miles.

The transformation was completed in the blink of an eye!

"A piercing sound!"

As the sound rang out, the approaching Chilian was cleaved in half by the radiance, neatly severed into two parts.

Blood splattered into the sky, and the mountains trembled!

With a mournful cry, Chilian collapsed, her eyes filled with disbelief.

The Primordial Sword concealed the aura of an emperor, slashing demons with a single stroke!

"Ah!"

A sharp scream emanated from the burst corpse, and a black figure emerged from within.

Vaguely, the old man's figure could be discerned, bearing the same appearance as the one who had met the black-robed woman earlier.

Through the illusionary body, a fist-sized, shimmering demonic pill could be seen, faintly swaying within.

"He's trying to escape!"

Zhe Liang, who was watching nearby, bellowed.

Zhongren looked up and saw Chilian in a panic, flying toward the depths of the ancient cave.

Her essence extinguished, and her millennium cultivation reduced to naught!

Now, she could only rely on the demonic pill to survive.

Having been shattered by a blow from the Sage, Chilian was no longer a match for Zhongren!

Under this blow, she was terrified.

From the unsealing blow Zhongren had delivered moments ago, she could keenly feel the unstoppable power of destruction!

In the face of such power, her millennium cultivation seemed like a joke, utterly powerless to resist.

"Want to run!"

"Not so easy!"

Zhongren snorted coldly, the Primordial Sword in his hand bursting forth with sharp brilliance once again.

Raising his hand, he charged towards Chilian's fleeing soul!

With her soul damaged and her heart filled with fear, she was overtaken by the powerful momentum of Zhongren.

The Primordial Sword, a treasure containing the aura of righteousness, was the nemesis of evil!

How could a mere soul withstand it?

With Zhongren's true energy erupting and the sword qi transforming into a rainbow, Zhe Liang's aura also added a touch of gloom to the young Taoist, perfectly enhancing him.

Chilian screamed in agony, bursting apart on the spot.

The mighty demon fell, and the demonic pill fell along with her, caught in Zhongren's hand as he followed suit!

"The great demon is dead!"

"Show yourselves, everyone!"

Zhongren held the sword aloft, hovering in the air, and shouted loudly.

One by one, cultivators emerged from their hiding places, looking at Zhongren surrounded by a halo of true energy, unable to help but feel fear and trembling in their hearts!

The devastating blow Zhongren had just unleashed was still etched in their minds.

It was as if the end of the world had come!

"Thank you for saving our lives!"

Some cultivators expressed their gratitude.

"Thank you, friend, for saving our lives!"

"Thank you, senior, for saving our lives!"

Cultivators voiced their thanks one after another, their expressions filled with gratitude and joy.

The eerie attack from Chilian just now had filled everyone with fear.

If it hadn't been for Zhongren's powerful intervention to kill her, none of the young cultivators here would have escaped!

"No need for thanks!"

"My elder brother once said that one should uphold justice and not fear evil!"

"This sword was bestowed upon me by my elder brother. Without it, I would not have been able to slay the demon so smoothly!"

"Now that the demon is dead, let's all disperse and search for treasures!"

Zhongren's voice echoed in the air, spreading far and wide, sparking discussions among the onlookers.

They were all curious about Zhongren's so-called elder brother, who could seal such a terrifying sword within him.

That kind of immense power was like the end of the world!

Even the ancestors of the sects present were probably unable to match such power!

For a while, the name of Zhongren's elder brother became the topic of discussion among the cultivators, but seeing that the trio was not willing to speak out, they did not dare to approach and inquire.

With doubts in their hearts, the cultivators dispersed, each searching for treasures.

Chilian's colossal demon body became the first target of looting.

After a thousand years of cultivation, every part of her body was a treasure trove.

Although the demonic pill had been taken by Zhongren, and he held the Primordial Sword, no one dared to covet his possessions.

The remaining parts of the demon's body were of no interest to Zhongren's trio, but for them, they were boundless opportunities!

The sturdy exoskeleton and even the scales on her body are valuable!

The young cultivators transformed into a demolition team, swiftly dismantling the old demon's body.

Meanwhile...

As Zhongren slays the demon with his sword, Gu Xiaoqi transforms into a phoenix of fire, spewing divine flames, and Zhe Liang uses his sword to suppress the old demon. These deeds spread among the many cultivators.

"Boom!"

The ancient cave opened.

This place was indirectly controlled by Chilian. Now that she's dead, there are no more constraints.

Zhongren, Gu Xiaoqi, and Zhe Liang did not linger and left directly.

...

At this moment!

In a dark and eerie forest, amidst swirling black mist, a figure emerged.

Clad in a black robe, with a hood concealing a face of unparalleled beauty that intoxicated every man.

But at this moment, this beautiful face displayed a look of astonishment.

She extended her hand, and in her palm lay the life imprint that Chilian had entrusted to her.

"Crack, crack, crack!"

The surface of the crystal stone was covered in cracks.

The sealed aura within it surged and clashed, accompanying the final crack as the entire crystal turned to dust.

The life imprint sealed within it also vanished without a trace.

"Dead?"

"What's going on!?"

Yuyang's eyebrows furrowed tightly, waves of shock and turmoil churning in her heart.

She was well aware of Chilian's strength. Even with little lifespan left, she was not someone an ordinary cultivator could kill.

Even if she couldn't win, she could escape! Unless someone had the power to instantly kill her!

She had just walked out of the place where Chilian was, and she hadn't even reached the Jing Nation Capital City when Chilian died!

The probability leaned heavily towards the second possibility.

She was already a Void Realm expert, but she couldn't even kill Chilian with one blow, at least she needed the cultivation of a Sage!

Thinking of this, Yuyang couldn't help but inhale a cold breath.

A Sage-level expert came to the ancient cave and killed Chilian. It felt like something out of a fantasy.

Who could have done it?

Yuyang's mind was in turmoil.

She had finally found a helper, only to have trouble arise at this moment!

It was necessary to investigate clearly!

If someone was targeting her specifically, she needed to be prepared early!

With this in mind, Yuyang paused her steps, a cold gleam in her eyes.

The black mist surged and churned as her figure disappeared once again.

In the Melted Origin Cave, Chilian's colossal body disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only the shattered remains.

Within a radius of thousands of miles, the area had been dyed red with blood.

The scent of blood permeated the air, turning this vast cave into a scene of carnage.

Over a dozen cultivators of low strength searched carefully within it.

The good things had already been taken by the powerful young cultivators. They dared to search only now, hoping to find some leftovers.

The black mist flickered, and Yuyang's figure appeared. The remnants of the battle's aura still lingered in the air.

Yuyang's expression was slightly solemn. She sensed the lingering aura of the Emperor Realm in the slightly distorted space.

Sure enough, a powerful expert of this level had come... But, if an expert of this level had come, how could Chilian have dared to confront them head-on?

She would have knelt down and called them master directly!

Yuyang didn't know the specifics of what happened, but her gaze fell on a cultivator who was scraping bones near Chilian's ribs.

Yuyang flashed over and grabbed him, dragging him to a nearby mountain.

The black mist converged into more than a dozen sharp spikes, pointing directly at the vital points of the captured cultivator. A cold, emotionless voice echoed from the sky.

"Speak, what happened here?"
