Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation-Novel2

Chapter 1434: Fated Meeting

Everyone from the Demon Royal Halls was smiling. Only the Celestial Demon Crown Scion in the air was crying.

Then, he took out an item from his embrace—a small sword with mysterious formations carved on it. It was very exquisite, but it was just a regular small sword.

In the Demonic World, it was known as a Demon Guiding Sword, which was used specifically for absorbing Demonic Qi. Clearly, this Demon Guiding Sword had undergone some special refining.

The efficiency of this Demon Guiding Sword was quite startling, pulling over all the Demonic Qi in the entire sky.

Holding the Demon Guiding Sword, the Celestial Demon Crown Scion showed an exceptionally sullen expression. He finally understood why Chu Chaoyun had said that he obtained the Demon Sword.

Chu Chaoyun was making him a scapegoat. After such a vast mysterious phenomenon and with the Celestial Demon Crown Scion the person closest to the Demon Sword, everyone would think that he obtained the Evil Shadow Sword. He would not have any words to refute this, either.

The Celestial Demon Crown Scion looked up. However, he could no longer see Chu Chaoyun's figure. Chu Chaoyun already disappeared without a trace long ago.

How hateful!

The Celestial Demon Crown Scion's fist shook as he held the Demon Guiding Sword. This was the first time another person had tricked him so miserably. After a while, he calmed down. Then, he said coldly, "Chu Chaoyun, I'll definitely get even with you!"

The Celestial Demon Crown Scion certainly had to settle accounts with Chu Chaoyun. However, this was not the time. At this moment, everyone believed that he obtained the Demon Sword. The cultivators of the Kunlun Realm's various lands were currently charging towards him. Soon, the Deity Dao Union's people would rush over as well.

The Celestial Demon Crown Scion needed to leave, the farther, the better. The Demon Royal Halls' people would not believe that he did not obtain the Evil Shadow Sword. All the more the Kunlun Realm's people would not believe that. No matter how he explained, it would be futile. Chu Chaoyun's move was too brilliant.

Chu Chaoyun easily snatched away the Demon Sword and left silently, as if he had never been there. Then, he placed all the pressure on the Celestial Demon Crown Scion.

With a few flashes, the Celestial Demon Crown Scion returned to where the many Demon Crown Scions had gathered.

"How is it? Did you obtain the Evil Shadow Sword?" the many Demon Crown Scions asked in anticipation.

The Celestial Demon Crown Scion showed a sullen expression and asked, "If I said that I did not, would you believe me?"

"How can that be? We saw you and the Evil Shadow Sword enter the clouds one after another ourselves. When you came down, the demonic cloud entered your body. Isn't that the mysterious phenomenon of the Demon Sword recognizing a master?"

"Young Master Celestial Demon, you aren't trying to shirk your responsibility, right? We can let you have the Evil Shadow Sword, but the benefits that you promised us are already inferior to the Evil Shadow Sword."

The many Demon Crown Scions clearly did not believe him, even suspecting that he was trying to break his promises.

The Celestial Demon Crown Scion smiled bitterly to himself. It looked like he would definitely become a scapegoat. He had the option of telling the truth. However, he really could not bring himself to speak of how he had been so frustrated by Chu Chaoyun that he vomited blood and let the other party snatch the Evil Shadow Sword.

This was not because of his pride. More importantly, the blow to his prestige would be too great.

The Celestial Demon Crown Scion did his best to squeeze out a smile. "Just joking. I already obtained the Demon Sword. Prepare to leave. We will return to the Astral Battlefield first. When we reach the Demonic World, I will fulfill all the promises I made to you all."

"Congratulations. Although the might of the Evil Shadow Sword still seems a little low for being an inheritance of a Sovereign, a Sovereign's weapon, in any case, with it, when Young Master Celestial Demon becomes the Demon Monarch, the unification of our eighteen Demon Royal Halls will be smoother."

The words of congratulations were like sharp swords stabbing the Celestial Demon Crown Scion's heart. It felt very painful, but he still had to squeeze out a smile. Only he understood the bitterness behind this.

After idly chatting for a while, the few Demon Crown Scions summoned their Demon Royal Hall factions to prepare to leave the Kunlun Realm.

Since they rushed over to the Kunlun Realm, they naturally planned an exit strategy. The few Demon Crown Scions made their moves at the same time, striking the ground under their feet.

The ground instantly shattered, revealing an enormous, deep pit and the corpse of an ancient Demon Monarch standing there. The corpse had already rotted to the point where only a pile of bones were left. Demonic Qi mixed with the corpse, and it smelled bloody and bad.

"Sorry for the offense."

The Celestial Demon Crown Scion bowed slightly, and a talisman appeared in his hand. This was the extremely precious Corpse Guiding Talisman. Once the talisman was placed in the corpse, the talisman could temporarily control it and let it burst forth with ten percent of its combat prowess from before it died.

Even ten percent of the strength of an ancient Demon Monarch was sufficient to create enough chaos for the Demon Royal Halls' people to leave.

"Let's go!"

The skeleton of the Demon Monarch soared into the air and ballooned to the size of a small mountain. Then, it blocked all the Kunlun Realm cultivators rushing at the Demon Royal Halls' people.

The many Demons took this opportunity to board the warships quickly and soar into the clouds, heading to the Starry Heavens above. Once they reached the Starry Heavens, there would be someone to receive them; they would be completely safe there.

This was a perfect plan. Unfortunately, the Demons did not obtain the Evil Shadow Sword.

"Elder Sister Lingling, did you see the Shadowless Saber Sovereign? Where did he go?" Xiao Bai had been paying attention to the Shadowless Saber Sovereign all the while, completely ignoring the current chaos.

When Shui Lingling saw the Demon Royal Halls' people leave easily, she felt burning misgivings. At Xiao Bai's question, she quickly looked around but found that the Shadowless Saber Sovereign had long since disappeared already.

"Let's leave this place first. That Demon Monarch corpse will explode soon. If we do not leave now, we will end up buried here," An Junxi said with a somewhat anxious expression on his face when he saw the distant Demon Monarch corpse swelling up.

An Junxi could not be bothered with anything else as he urged the others to leave quickly.

This was how the curtains fell on the battle for the Evil Shadow Sword, which had widened the horizons of many people. Various people stepped up in succession. Nearly all the famous outstanding talents of the golden age were here.

The battle between the Kunlun Realm's outstanding talents and the Demonic World's Demons was rather balanced; no one managed to benefit much from this.

However, when people spoke of this event—a tale that was bound to be passed down for thousands of years—the one that would be discussed the most would definitely not be Di Wuque or the Celestial Demon Crown Scion.

It would be the Shadowless Saber Sovereign. After this battle, no one would ever question the Shadowless Saber Sovereign's possession of the Saber Sovereign Medallion.

Xiao Chen proved that he deserved the title of Saber Sovereign. Wu Xiaotian was not wrong to hand over the Saber Sovereign Medallion to him.

However, what not many people knew was that in this gathering of talents, one person came silently and left silently. This person caused the Celestial Demon Crown Scion to vomit blood in frustration and easily took away the Evil Shadow Sword; he was the greatest winner of this event.

Like the Shadowless Saber Sovereign, he was like a shadow that no one knew about.

At this moment, this person carried the sword box and unhurriedly met up with Yao Manlan. When she saw the sword box in his hand, Yao Manlan said in disbelief, "You really obtained the Evil Shadow Sword?"

Chu Chaoyun smiled faintly and opened the sword box a crack. After revealing a portion of the Evil Shadow Sword, he quickly closed it.

Yao Manlan revealed an expression of wild joy and reached out to take the sword box. Chu Chaoyun gently withdrew it and slung on his back. "This is for Leng Yue, not you."

"Just let me have it, giving it to me is the same as giving it to Master," Yao Manlan said unhappily. Even though she appeared angry, her face still looked very charming, giving rise to wild and fanciful thoughts.

However, Chu Chaoyun was not interested at all. He did not get tempted by the ever-present enticement.

Suddenly, Chu Chaoyun's expression changed. Without giving Yao Manlan any time to think, he pulled her along and moved one kilometer forward before turning around.

"What are you doing?!" Yao Manlan felt upset. However, when she turned around, what she saw startled her into moving another kilometer back.

At some point in time, a throne had descended there. A person sat on the throne while holding an undrawn saber in his right hand, hovering above the ground.

The person just casually sat there, but the air of a king could not be concealed no matter what. As Xiao Chen's hair fluttered about, he let his aura casually drift out in the strong wind.

"Clang! Clang!" action

Indistinct sounds of sabers and swords clashing rang out in the air—as if people were fighting there, moving at the fastest speed possible.

Finding such an atmosphere suffocating, Yao Manlun retreated further.

Her heart pounded heavily. Why did the Shadowless Saber Sovereign chase after them at this moment?

The main thing was that the earlier scene of Xiao Chen waving his hand and defeating the many outstanding talents of the Deity Dao Union and Demon Royal Halls cast too monumental a shadow in her heart.

Otherwise, Yao Manlan would not show such fear for the Shadowless Saber Sovereign. Then, she thought of something, and her expression changed slightly. Could the Shadowless Saber Sovereign be here for the Evil Shadow Sword?

If that was true, would Chu Chaoyun be a match for the Shadowless Saber Sovereign?
