It came with a lot of joss paper. Ruan Yu and Sen Luo stood up to the threat standing on a tree branch, with half of his face completely covered by a dark hood. With their eyes on the mystical joss paper that fell on them like snow from the sky, they felt a certain darkness descend upon them, accompanied by a breeze so fierce that it blew sand into their eyes when they weren’t looking. Both Ruan Yu and Sen Luo moved back a bit, holding on to each other's hand as they did. “Are you all right?” Sen Luo was the first to recover and turned to Ruan Yu with concern when she took longer to open her eyes. Ruan Yu nodded to indicate that she was all right before slowly opening her eyes. They both stood before the entity shrouded in darkness. His dark lips, visibly cracked with dryness, and the smell of death lingered around them. Ji Yang. Ruan Yu called out within herself as she readied herself for an attack. It felt as though the environment responded to the thought of that entity’s na

When the power of Chaos was still young, the heavens presented a sinner before the Grand Divine Being. This became the highlight of many disastrous events that took place during the Great Divine Dispute.She was bound in pure white chains, and she reeked of demonic energy.On her final journey up the Painless Ladder of Divine Ruin, Cang Hai, the Great Demon and Queen of Bloodshed, paused on the seventh step and looked back at the gods, immortals and fairy lords who had gathered to watch her final downfall, the peak of her ruin.But he wasn’t there.She half expected him to regret what he had done to her and be there. Even if his pride and ego stopped him from seeking her forgiveness, at least he should be there to see what his betrayal had done to her.The fearless breeze of Fate Heaven circled the snow-white strands of her hair, tinted with the red of demonic energy.Her dark lips trembled as her vision blurred with tears at the injustice done to her.Her eyes locked on the one she h

Ji Yang.Ruan Yu remembered him well. The human who had the ability to perform a lightless skill without any basic cultivation foundation or enlightenment and was later discovered to be a mimic doll.“Where? Where are their bodies? Who did this? Where did you see them?”Maman cried out when Sen Luo’s grip on her arm grew painful. Ruan Yu had to step in immediately to stop him from hurting her living artifact and bring him back to his senses.One thing Sen Luo hated, after being seen as inferior in anything in life, was having a demon gain victory over any operation he led. He hated it when demons killed one of his men. He would rather hear that both the demon and his men had perished after a fierce battle.“Sen Luo, wake up. Calm down,” Ruan Yu said as she pulled the slayer away from her artifact. Sen Luo came to his senses and realized what he had done and how his emotions were already getting the better of him.“I’m sorry,” he apologised and stepped back completely while breathing h
16: Impossible
The next morning, the native doctor cooked them a strange meal of pork, eggs and quail.Sen Luo was hesitant to eat it at first, but when his fellow senior slayer ate it without being poisoned, he took a small bite of the meal and instantly fell in love with it.“Wow, oh my goodness. Good sister, can you tell us what meal this is?” Sen Luo asked as he licked his plate. The native doctor, sitting calmly and composed before them at their dining table outside the hut, answered.“It is a special meal I cook whenever I am down on spiritual energy.”Sen Luo raised one confused eyebrow at her before asking, “Good sister, are you also a cultivator like us as well?”The native doctor smiled and said it was a secret.“I heard how strangely you found your powers weakening when entering my compound yesterday, so I thought I’d cook one of my secret recipes for you both as an apology for the weird miasma surrounding me that I am yet to get rid of.”“Miasma?” It was Ruan Yu’s turn to be curious.“Ye
15: Bad Karma
Her sister gave her that necklace a few days ago?Ruan Yu stared at the native doctor long enough to make her colleagues worry about what she thought about this. The doctor looked quite defensive about the necklace and there was something in the way the doctor observed that made Ruan Yu a bit uneasy but she shrugged it off quickly and said, “Don’t worry. We are good people and we haven’t come here to harm anybody.”The doctor blinked and asked, “Who are you people? And…” The doctor stared at the ground with her gaze slightly unfocused. “Why have you come to me with so many questions about my jewelry?”She asked, already considering running. Maybe they suspected her of stealing it or something or they were here to accuse her falsely and have her taken to the court for unjust corporal punishment by the king. Who knows, they may look like foreigners but the idea of them being secret agents of the king couldn’t be ruled out as well.Ruan Yu wondered what to say and how to introduce them.

(Mortal Realm—Bai Si Settlement.)The tracking talisman led the group of slayers to a remote village of a few hundred people, including traders, not too far from the White Fox Spirit forest. The group passed the threshold of the dense forest covered entirely in fog by day and darkness by night before reaching Bai Si village.“Yan Yang, I heard a real white fox spirit lives in that forest,” a slayer riding behind Sheng Meng said to his fellow rider beside him. The poor junior shivered as he stared at the ominous forest that appeared white and hazy due to the spiritual fog.“Nonsense. There’s no such thing as a white fox spirit.” One slayer commented behind them, and Yan Yang immediately nodded as if it were true. The slayer who brought up the existence of a real white fox spirit scoffed as they all hastened their pace past the forest and into the settlement.“Don’t let that bully scare you with crazy tales of a forest spirit, Yan Yang,” Jing Mu came closer to comfort the junior. “All f
