“What unspeakable thing? You better explain clearly!” Li Siyi exclaimed anxiously.
Ah Yun had already gone to paddle in the water. Sometimes, leaving a statement hanging mid-sentence had a better effect.
“So, what unspeakable thing?”
Li Siyi directly asked Su Luo.
“Don’t you think she’s intentionally doing this?”
“Maybe she is, but you should be wary of her. Saying she’s loyal, but who constantly talks about loyalty like that?”
“Isn’t that something trivial? Besides, haven’t you had a feud with me?”
Right, she almost forgot about the main issue. Li Siyi instantly changed faces: “Su Luo, Su Luo!”
She emitted a voice filled with resentment.
“In my dreams, I’ve always wished to kill you. You’ve done so many atrocious things to me; I’ll never forget you!”
Upon hearing this hateful voice, the members of the sect alliance wondered what kind of atrocious acts Su Luo could have committed.
Li Siyi unsheathed her sword and began attacking Su Luo, initiating with a powerful sword Qi!
However, just as it was about to reach Su Luo, it suddenly veered off course and struck a beast behind him.
Even in death, the beast couldn’t comprehend how the emotional build-up could result in such an error.
Li Siyi continued to unleash sword Qi, yet none of them managed to harm Su Luo. Instead, the surrounding Heavenly Demon Sect members and beasts were caught off guard and kept getting injured.
Are you holding a grudge against Su Luo or us?!
The surrounding beasts couldn’t take it anymore. Regardless of any personal grudges, they all had to die.
The chaotic battle resumed.
Some core disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Sect realized Li Siyi’s intentions.
To give Su Luo all the limelight, they began acting as well.
“Why, Su Luo, can you alter the direction of my techniques?!”
“What demonic move has blinded my eyes? I can’t land a hit on you!”
“Su Luo, one day you will die by our swords!”
Yet, all those who died were the surrounding beasts and Heavenly Demon Sect members.
Acting aside, the mission couldn’t be forgotten—they had to thoroughly annihilate the Heavenly Demon Sect and the beast horde.
Su Luo momentarily felt they might have lost their minds. He hadn’t done anything at all.
Their words and actions were completely at odds. The beasts around them died with unfulfilled vengeance.
Li Siyi acting alone was one thing, but behaving the same way themselves? Were they so giving to Li Siyi?
Or was it Little Yu?
Little Yu’s involvement seemed more likely. She was, after all, the sect leader’s disciple.
Surely they weren’t doing this voluntarily, right? Seven Stars Sword Sect members helping me? What nonsense.
Su Luo had planned to put on a show, but now, it seemed unnecessary.
Indeed, it wasn’t needed. Su Luo was already quite noticeable as it was.
He stood there, doing nothing, yet managing to alter others’ attacks and using them to kill beasts.
Even Qing Bukuang and the others couldn’t match Su Luo’s ease.
Granted, Qing Bukuang and co. were dealing with numerous and strong opponents, giving the impression of a slightly tough battle.
This contrast made Su Luo’s presence even more imposing.
If it could remain like this until the end, it would be fine, but...
Su Luo gazed toward the distant sky, noticing an ominous presence approaching.
...
On the other side of the battlefield, Little Yu was continuously slaying beasts.
Little Yu had spotted Su Luo at a glance. She wished to approach him and have a proper conversation.
But seeing the surrounding throng of Heavenly Demon Sect members and beasts, the battle wasn’t over yet.
Going to Su Luo now would only increase the pressure on others.
She couldn’t leave just yet.
However...
If the battle ended quickly, she could see Su Luo, right?
Su Luo, Su Luo, Su Luo.
The repetition of his name in her heart made Little Yu’s gaze sharpen once more.
Dodging a sneak attack from behind, she took five steps forward to slay a beast wielding a shield, then moved left to lure more beasts into a cluster.
And then...
The radiance of Seven Stars Converging illuminated the battlefield. Wherever the light passed, beasts were obliterated without resistance.
Little Yu didn’t stop; she continued her onslaught.
The more she thought of Su Luo, the clearer her mind became, knowing precisely what to do next to swiftly eliminate enemies.
In Little Yu’s eyes, it was as if she could see a line—the optimal path to kill enemies.
Without hesitation, she unsheathed her sword, following that line relentlessly, leaving no one in her path unscathed.
Her yearning transformed into power.
Little Yu’s brilliance also shone brightly on the battlefield.
The Heavenly Demon Sect members were intrigued, wondering which genius this was, as they had never heard of her before.
The other Seven Stars Sword Sect members were equally astonished. How had Little Yu suddenly become so formidable?
Hu Yirong, a powerful figure of the Heavenly Demon Sect, quipped with a hint of envy, “You righteous sects have too many geniuses. Can’t you share a few with us demonic sects?”
The Seven Stars Sword Sect’s leader replied, “What are you talking about? Your Su Mozi is quite talented as well.”
“Heh, you still have Lin Xuan. It seems our demonic sects never measure up. But if she dies here, I’d say our geniuses are evenly matched.”
“Do you think I’d let you pass?”
“True, then let’s continue our fight.”
Whether it was the sect alliance or the Heavenly Demon Sect, both had their moments of glory. The beast horde, however, was pitifully weak and outmatched.
Among the three factions clashing, the beast horde suffered the most, with their inferior combined strength and countless cannon fodder being the main casualties.
Just when the beast horde was on the verge of despair, a roar echoed from the distance, invigorating them.
This was a beast’s roar!
Following it, a formidable aura emerged.
The sky darkened gradually.
A dragon appeared above everyone’s heads. Unlike ordinary dragons, this one had two heads.
He gazed down at the disorganized beast horde below, though not closely related, they were still beasts and deserved respect. Being bullied like this couldn’t stand.
“Roar!”
His first roar darkened the heavens, blotting out all sunlight.
“Roar!”
His second roar brought lightning and thunder.
“Roar!”
His third roar summoned whirlwinds and torrential rains.
Especially that rain, imbued with special power, possessing incredible penetration.
Moreover, the rain was selective. Falling on humans, it became lethal needles.
But on beasts, it provided minor healing and unique enhancements, elevating their combat power even further.
The sect alliance and Heavenly Demon Sect were caught off guard by this sudden rain, forced to focus on defending themselves.
The beasts, benefiting from the rain, began to counterattack, launching assaults.
The tides of battle suddenly reversed because of a rain.
The two-headed dragon was satisfied with this outcome, laughing heartily:
“I thought you were formidable, but is this all you’ve got?”
“Go on, be arrogant. How dare you bully my beast horde? Now that I’m here, continue.”
“Let me see which human dares to flaunt themselves. I’ll personally take care of them.”
