As the Universe Turns - Chapter 285
Chapter 285 The Heart Is Like a Devil
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were fixed on this black-robed man. Even though most of the people here had never seen Xiao Yichen with their own eyes, how could they not have heard of the incident that shocked the entire Xianyuan Five Realms four years ago? Could it be that the person in front of him was actually that Xiao Yichen? Didn’t he already jump off the Immortal Burial Cliff and die?
The atmosphere became even more tense. Only the wind blew by, and the leaves kept rustling coldly. The disciples of the Righteous and Demonic Dao subconsciously quickly retreated to their side. The expressions of the two Martial Aunts of Qinghong Sect also became even more solemn than before.
At this moment, no one spoke. The people from Cangfeng Valley and the Jade Void Temple who had just rushed over were also on guard. They did not believe that they would be able to jump off the Immortal Burial Cliff alive.
“May I ask if you are Fairy Miaoyin’s disciple, Xiao Yichen?”
Abbess Xian Qing’s gaze became even sharper. She stared at Xiao Chen motionlessly. The whisk sword in her hand became tighter and tighter. The scabbard continuously emitted a “ding ding” sound, as if the Demon Subduing and Demon Removing sword inside could be unsheathed at any moment.
As the wind blew past, Xiao Chen slowly took two steps forward. At this moment, everyone held their breaths and watched him slowly take off their battle robes. At this moment, when they saw his appearance, many people on the Righteous path cried out in alarm, “Indeed, it was him!”
The expressions of the two Martial Aunts of Qinghong Sect changed abruptly. Even though they had already received news that this person was Xiao Yichen, they still couldn’t believe what they saw with their own eyes. He wasn’t dead. He was actually still in the Flower Pity Palace!
It was just that the appearance of the handsome white-clothed youth from before had disappeared. Now, there was only a man with a cold look in his eyes.
“Xiao Yichen! It really is you!”
The whisk sword in Aunt Xian Qing’s hand trembled even more violently. The sheath of the sword continuously emitted a crisp collision sound, as if it was about to be unsheathed at any moment to slay the demons and demons!
Grand Aunt Yi Zhi also took a step forward and coldly looked at Xiao Chen, “Xiao Yichen! Why are you here?”
“Then why are you and the others here?”
Xiao Chen’s eyes were calm as he spoke without any waves on his face. He was as calm as a dry well without water.
Abbess Xian Qing’s gaze turned fierce as he coldly said, “Lianhua Palace has committed many evil deeds and killed countless righteous people. Today, we, the righteous ones, are naturally here to kill demons and eliminate devils!”
“Slaying demons and eliminating demons, ha …”
Xiao Chen smiled coldly and said indifferently, “How can there be an endless number of demons in this world? There are only endless hearts and desires …”
“You!”
Hearing his words, the expressions of the two abbesses immediately changed. Abbess Xian Qing pointed to him and said, “Xiao Yichen, are you still unrepentant and want to protect that Diabolism witch?”
“Diabolism Witch …”
Xiao Chen put his hands behind his back and said indifferently, “You keep saying that the Diabolism witches are stained with blood. Now let’s see if their hands are stained with blood …”
At this point, he pointed at the injured disciples of the Lianhua Palace behind him, and then pointed at the righteous people in front of him. His gaze became much sharper, “It’s still your hands that are stained with blood.”
“You!”
For a moment, the two Azure Rainbow Sect masters were speechless.
Xiao Chen flicked his sleeve and said, “Did they kill more people, or did he kill more people” Finally, he pointed to Tang Yu in the distance.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone from the Righteous path looked at Tang Yu one after another. He stood there calmly and leisurely, his face unmoved. During this period of time, since he came out, he had destroyed seven sub-altars in Lianhua Palace in succession, causing his reputation to rise.
Anyone who failed to escape from Lianhua Palace, even a teenage girl who had just learned how to use her sword, all died under his Cyan Sharp Sword without exception. This person’s decisiveness in killing was considered terrifying in the Righteous Dao.
Tang Yu said indifferently, “I killed people from Diabolism.”
“Master Diabolism …”
Xiao Chen’s eyes were indifferent, “Could it be that someone was born from Diabolism? Should they … die?”
“That’s right, the Diabolism monster has committed many evil deeds and bewitched people. Everyone has to be executed. I’m only doing this on behalf of the heavens.”
“Bah! I’ve never seen a shameless person like you!”
A few women from Lianhua Palace walked out angrily and pointed at Tang Yu, “I, Lianhua Palace, have never harassed a single citizen in the Border Region these past few years. The people I have taken in are only those who are homeless and displaced. Instead, it is you who have charged us with unnecessary crimes. Then, you have a valid reason for killing us!”
Tang Yu’s expression was still calm as he lightly waved the folding fan in his hand and said indifferently, “Anyway, the people in Diabolism can always use tens of thousands of words to justify themselves. However, what cannot be changed is the sins you have committed. Only the blade of a three-foot sword can explain it.”
“You!”
A few women from Lianhua Palace could not defeat him, so they could only walk towards Xiao Chen and said with deep eyes, “Young Master Xiao, we have never randomly killed a single person. On the contrary, they are forcing us everywhere. Today …”
“Miss, there’s no need to say anything else.”
Xiao Chen raised his hand, and his gaze still fell on Tang Yu. He said indifferently, “Since I’m here today, I have no choice but to withdraw my seven-foot sword.”
“Xiao Yichen!”
Seeing that he was determined to protect the demonic woman of Diabolism today, Aunt Xian Qing’s expression darkened. “Could it be that you are still stubborn today? Do you deserve your master’s painstaking efforts to nurture you all those years ago?”
“Senior Sister! What are you talking about with him about? This little devil is already confused by the demonic woman. There is no other way to save him back then. Why don’t we kill him first and clean up the scum for my Righteous Dao Profound Sect! Little devil, look at the sword!”
Grand Master Yi Zhi shouted loudly. She suddenly jumped up, pulled out the whisk sword in her hand, and slashed at Xiao Chen. This sword strike was fierce, causing a strong wind to blow within a radius of a hundred feet, causing plants and vegetation to fly wildly.
Seeing this, Aunt Xian Qing also slashed forward with her sword. The two of them gathered together and were even more unstoppable. However, Xiao Chen was still standing on the same spot and did not move a single bit.
“Young Master Xiao! Be careful!”
When the disciples of Lianhua Palace saw that the two old nuns’ swords were sharp and had no room for maneuver, they cried out in unison.
However, Xiao Chen had already secretly activated his True Essence. As soon as the two of them approached, he used his Great Freedom Palm Technique. Xian Qing and Yi Zhi only felt a strange force sweeping over their faces. They were still uncertain. In the next moment, the sword in their hands did not obey their orders and actually slashed towards each other.
“Junior Sister, be careful!”
“Senior Sister, be careful!”
Almost at the same time, the two of them cried out in alarm. However, in the next moment, there was a loud “bang” sound. The two swords collided and released a dazzling light. The powerful impact caused the two of them to lose their balance and fly backwards.
