[Level Up! You have reached Level 15]
The futuristic blue explosive fireworks sent the cultivators behind the cover flying into the air, their bodies blasted into pieces.
Tail Thunder wasn’t actually about pulling off the real tail.
When she was charging up Tail Thunder, her real tail would disappear and become invisible.
A fake tail-shaped object, made from a special Spiritual Energy Circuit, would appear at the small of her back.
One pull, one toss—like plucking a ripe fruit—and then boom—
Fortunately, Tail Thunder looked nothing like a Heavenly Demon’s style, so Jiang Ke’er felt relatively at ease using it, though she still tried to minimize its usage.
“Waaah, run!”
Someone broke the line first.
The Human Clan cultivators, realizing that “this battle was impossible to win,” had their will shattered and scattered in panic.
Unbelievable! This was unscientific! How could someone at the Seven Luminaries Realm be this strong?!
She stood in the air, as if she possessed an invincible golden body that could withstand an army of ten thousand! Fighting alone against over a thousand cultivators of the Xiao Kingdom, she showed no sign of weakness!
She was single-handedly suppressing thousands of cultivators of similar cultivation bases and beating them down!
“This is insane, insane. How can there be someone this powerful in the world…”
Someone’s hands and feet turned cold, trembling, their worldview shattered and their courage broken by the scene before them.
“Strong?” Qiao Xiaoxian mercilessly crushed his neck and sighed softly. “Actually, my wife is even stronger…”
The surrounding Xiao Kingdom cultivators shifted from offense to escape.
But Qiao Xiaoxian showed no intention of defending.
None of the humans in Beiju Luzhou were innocent.
No way to fight! The Xiao Kingdom cultivators’ hearts were left with only despair and terror.
Attack? Couldn’t break through her defense.
Defend? Couldn’t hold.
Run? Couldn’t outrun her.
Was this really that dragon?
The same dragon whose body had been pierced, who had been beaten to the ground gasping for breath, who had nearly been reduced to charcoal by the Lightning Tribulation?
“Retreat first, wait for reinforcements from the Demon Capture Squad.” The Great Sima Nation undercover squad leader gave the order, and before he even finished, he was already slipping away.
No one still harbored the fantasy of slaying the dragon and making a meal of it.
Even the undercover soldiers of Great Sima Nation, who had received a direct order, gave up resistance and fled.
Running had become the only thing the surrounding cultivators could do.
Even if they ran with all their might, they had to pray that Qiao Xiaoxian wouldn’t chase their direction in order to escape successfully.
Everything today had completely shattered their understanding of the Cultivator Realm.
They had originally thought that the gap between themselves and the top elite of the same level was at most a factor of 1 to 3.
With a little effort, luck, and good plays, they could still win.
But Qiao Xiaoxian had successfully proven to them that some people could truly leap levels and crush Honored Ones.
This combat power multiplier… was probably starting at over ten thousand.
The chaotic battlefield was littered with corpses, and a faint fishy smell hung in the air.
Qiao Xiaoxian once again returned to her silent and peaceful demeanor, following Jiang Ke’er without a sound.
She even took a half-step back, slightly staggered in position, like a graceful and powerful butler to the young lady.
Jiang Ke’er walked ahead without any hesitation, wearing a fierce expression as she headed toward the Demon Kingdom.
They continued to swagger down the street, still making no attempt to conceal themselves.
They had returned to Beiju Luzhou to settle old debts with their heads held high!
Whoever blocked them, they would kill!
“Bang—bang—”
Wherever they went, doors and windows slammed shut, shops closed, the streets became deserted, and the cultivators held their breath in silence, as still and dead as an empty city.
Only the light sound of soles on bluestone bricks echoed through the alleys of the small town.
The air was filled with nothing but slaughter.
Half the journey remained.
Jiang Ke’er and Qiao Xiaoxian were in no hurry.
The whole world thought they would sneak back like rats and snakes… But they refused!
They would walk step by step, openly and righteously, toward the Demon Kingdom.
Let those truly sycophantic and underhanded people feel the terror of the Death God approaching, let them have countless thoughts of self-reflection or cursing!
I, the rebel, Jiang Ke’er.
Today, I’m playing my cards face-up against you all!
“Here they come.”
In the valley, banners were already spread everywhere.
The Beiju Luzhou Demon Capture Squad, as the most prestigious elite profession in all of Beiju Luzhou, had only one mission: to slay and capture demons.
The fleeing Infinite Sect Honored One stood on the mountaintop, side by side with the Supreme Commander of the Beiju Luzhou Demon Capture Squad.
Now that it had turned into a battle between two Honored Ones, the situation seemed to have reversed drastically. They appeared to hold an overwhelming advantage in power.
Just as Qiao Xiaoxian was about to head into the campsite alone, Jiang Ke’er drew her sword and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with her.
“Demon Capture Squad? This time, you don’t get to show off all by yourself. I have a grudge against them too.”
“What grudge?” Qiao Xiaoxian asked, puzzled.
“Their name pissed me off,” Jiang Ke’er replied.
“…”
“Dragon Slaying Formation! Activate!”
With a sharp shout from the Demon Capture Squad captain, the elite squad members, holding Strange Gate Claws and Chains, leaped into formation.
The two women stood still, allowing themselves to be surrounded.
Jiang Ke’er faced south, Qiao Xiaoxian faced north.
“Wait, I want to fight the north side!”
Jiang Ke’er suddenly yanked Qiao Xiaoxian behind her, swapping directions.
Fight!
Dense clusters of hooks connected to chains were thrown with precision by the Demon Capture Squad members, surging toward the two women from all directions!
Jiang Ke’er gripped her sword with both hands, and a gale began to swirl around her.
Qiao Xiaoxian raised her hand to form a hand seal, and the surrounding air temperature plummeted.
The sword was drawn.
Just as everyone thought they would break out in opposite directions—north and south—Qiao Xiaoxian abruptly turned.
Her long sword swung, and a violent storm surged toward the north!
In the final moment of Jiang Ke’er’s sword dance, Qiao Xiaoxian pressed the blue light in her hand into the blade.
It was an Ice Storm given physical form!
The spinning tempest, with its terrifying twisting force, pulled the chains into its vortex.
The Demon Capture Squad cultivators behind the chains couldn’t react in time; their bodies were yanked toward the storm by the chains.
Even as they hurriedly let go, the storm’s surroundings still held a terrifying suction, dragging their struggling bodies bit by bit into the wind.
Inside the wind were dense ice cones and chains.
Deep-blue sharp ice cones, hooks, flesh, and shattered bones built the storm even stronger, instantly shredding anything that entered.
The Dragon Slaying Formation was utterly broken beyond repair.
And the ever-strengthening Ice Storm surged directly toward the two Honored Ones’ faces!
“Beasts, how dare you!”
The two Honored Ones were shocked and furious, and the Supreme Commander’s heart bled with pain.
“Demonic freaks! Today I will skin you alive!”
The Supreme Commander roared and charged down, rushing at Jiang Ke’er and Qiao Xiaoxian.
The villagers in the surrounding settlements who were secretly watching the battle cheered silently, thinking, ‘As expected of the squad leader! Go! Kill them!’
“Thud—”
A Grade 8 Artifact smashed into his head.
“Thud—”
Another Grade 8 Artifact smashed into his head.
Jiang Ke’er refused to be outdone and pulled out the No. 4 Spiritual Power Compression Conversion Valve.
This was the power supply device for Zone 4 of the Lunar Engine, different from the previous continuous supply type—
Jiang Ke’er roughly grabbed a handful of Magic Crystals and jammed them into the compression slot.
Then she hugged the thick No. 4 Spiritual Power Compression Conversion Valve and flew straight toward the other Honored One.
Only when she was about to slam it into his face did she raise the thick output nozzle at the Infinite Sect Honored One.
Jiang Ke’er smiled slightly. “When money can solve a problem, why use a sword? Don’t you think so?”
