Li Wenshi’s eyes shone with wild joy, and he laughed. “You are a dead meat!”

Clang!

He put more force into his hands, shattering Ji Meng’s second-tier mystic weapon.

Ji Meng’s eyes narrowed, but he showed no sign of panic. Instead, his eyes were full of madness. He sneered and put his palms together, suddenly causing the shreds of his mystic weapon to spin and wheel in the air around him, turning into gusts of wind and spreading out.

“What!”

Li Wenshi, who was about to kill Ji Meng, got his hands cut by the shreds as soon as he touched the edge of the whirlwind. His face was covered in disbelief.

“Ten thousand peach blossoms!”

Ji Meng shouted aloud and pushed his palms straight out. With that, the whirlwinds around him combined and transformed into a brutal air force that blasted toward Li Wenshi. With all the shreds of the mystic weapon mixed in it, the attack was incredibly fierce and deadly.

“Block it, Toad True Body!”

There was not enough time to dodge, so Li Wenshi hastily shielded himself with demon energy and curled his body up into a ball. Under the strong air force, he was pushed back for tens of meters.

“Take this sword, Ji Meng!” Yunxiao threw out the cold sword of Taiyin.

“That sword…” Sun Xiumei squinted at the weapon and said in surprise, “Senior Brother Yi’s Taiyin? How did you get it?”

Yunxiao turned and gave her a smile. “He gave it to me. You got a problem with that?”

Face darkened, Sun Xiumei said coldly, “Are you so eager to get yourself killed? Who gave you the right to talk to me like that?” Although she was usually sweet, it actually depended on whom she talked to. Yunxiao was only a warrior, and in her eyes, he was no different from an ant.

Yunxiao held up a middle finger and said mockingly, “If you don’t want to talk, shut that big mouth up, b*tch!”

Sun Xiumei’s nostrils flared. “What did you say, little bast*rd? Do you know who I am?”

With a disdainful smile, Yunxiao said, “Of course I know. You are a b*tch!”

“Fine, fine! It seems that you really can’t wait to be killed!” Sun Xiumei flew into a rage. “Do you believe I’ll come down and kill you now?”

Yunxiao grew impatient. “You are indeed a b*tch, even though you refuse to admit it. It is plain that you can’t come down, and yet you still want to pretend you can kill me! If you move, your mystic art will be negated, and Darkthunder will kill you instantly! Now stop glaring at me, your fake eyelashes are falling off. Come down and kill me if you have the guts. Otherwise, just keep your mouth shut, stay there, and stop being a b*tch. You are making me look down on you.”

When she heard the first few words, Sun Xiumei was already boiling with rage. But by the time Yunxiao had finished, she was struck dumb and at a loss of words.

After taking the sword, Ji Meng immediately rushed up, using it to hack and slash and cut at Li Wenshi. He was not familiar with the sword, but the sharpness of a third-tier mystic weapon did not reduce because of that. Each one of his strokes froze the air into a chunk of ice, which filled Li Wenshi with terror.

Sun Xiumei held her tongue for some time, but at last, she could not help but ask, “What did you do to him, boy? How did his strength grow so much in such a short time?” Her voice was gentle.

Yunxiao paid her no mind. His eyes were following Ji Meng, filled with deep worry. He knew Ji Meng was burning his life force in exchange for strength!

The snub angered Sun Xiumei again, and yet there was nothing she could do, so she just glared at him. If she rushed down to kill him, the Darkthunder would surely escape, and it would be not so easy for her to capture it again.

“Haha! Haha!”

Ji Meng’s eyes began to show madness as he hacked again and again with the sword, laughing aloud, the power of each stroke greater than the one before. At some point, Li Wenshi had gotten himself a pair of hammers from somewhere, and he was using them to defend against all the attacks. But, it seemed that his strength was failing him. Sparks flew as the sword smashed at the hammers, but Ji Meng did not feel pity at all. He was immersed in the madness of slaughtering, totally controlled by the mighty power in himself.

Puke!

After holding on for a little while, Li Wenshi finally ran out of strength. He coughed out a mouthful of blood as his demon form slowly faded away. Fear crept into his eyes, and he quickly moved back into the mountain while struggling to defend himself.

“Hah! Now you want to run! Die!”

Ji Meng looked like a madman as he hacked again and again with the sword, striking terror and dread into Li Wenshi’s heart. “Help me, Junior Sister! I can’t hold on any longer!”

“Senior Brother!”

Sun Xiumei cried out in alarm. She knew she had to give up the Darkthunder. Very quickly, she pulled herself out of the aqua hoops and flew down to the rescue.

“Roar!”

As soon as it was freed, the beast transformed into a thundercloud and bolted over. Its violence and anger of being trapped for so long exploded in an instant; the whole woods were smeared with a shade of dark blue, as if a great storm was about to descend.

“Senior Brother!”

Sun Xiumei landed lightly next to Li Wenshi. She held up her right palm, in which a glob of water vapor condensed, and then she pushed it out. In the blink of an eye, the glob spread out and transformed into a water mirror, shielding both of them from the attack.

Meanwhile, Ji Meng made a cruel slash with the sword. The blade cut straight into the mirror, but he felt like he hit nothing at all, as if there was another dimension in it. Eyes widened in shock, he hurriedly drew the sword back.

The mirror lasted a few more seconds before it began to vaporize. Even so, it had given Sun Xiumei enough time. She grabbed the wounded Li Wenshi and retreated at full speed.

“Roar!”

The sky rumbled with thunderclaps as Darkthunder pierced through the void in a bolt of lightning and came in front of the couple in an instant, bringing with it a great thunderstorm.

Li Wenshi instantly turned pale. The force of thunder was so strong that even he, a Martial King, was trembling with fear. As for Sun Xiumei, although she had a panicked look on her face, her eyes were calm as water, and even flashed with a hint of surprise and excitement.

“Senior Brother, do you love me?”

“Of course, I love you. But, why do you ask this now?”

“Since you love me…”

A hint of a smile emerged on her face. All of a sudden, she threw Li Wenshi out and kicked him into the thundercloud. Her face flashed with a trace of evil excitement as she said, “Since you love me, please die for me now!”

“AHHH!”

Li Wenshi let out a bloodcurdling scream. All his hair stood and his skin was charred as the lightning in the cloud struck him, and then he was thrown out of it.

After venting its anger through the attack, Darkthunder seemed to have calmed down. It landed on the ground and fixed its eyes at the couple vigilantly, ready to strike again.

There was a flicker of resoluteness and ferocity in Sun Xiumei’s eyes as she watched Li Wenshi being thrown away. Clenching her jaws, she leaped into the air and dashed over to him.

A sharp blade stabbed through his heart and came out of his chest. Looking at the bloody blade, Li Wenshi’s eyes were filled with nothing but incredulity. He knew the dagger; he had captured three second-tier alchemists and forced them to craft it for her birthday.

Afterward, he had killed all three alchemists, who had nursed a grudge against him.

“Why?” He knew he would die even if his heart were not pierced by the dagger, as he was already severely wounded. But, he felt a pain in his heart which was much intense than the one caused by the dagger itself.

“Why?” Sun Xiumei burst into laughter. “Why ask me? Why don’t you just look at what you have turned yourself into?”

She pulled the dagger out and kicked Li Wenshi to the ground as she jerked a finger at him and snapped, “Look at yourself! You have completely turned into a toad! How can I stand it?”

She put a foot on his head as she looked down at him and said, “I can still remember those days, you in your pure white clothes, and I in my bright, colorful dress. I was moved by your appearance, your temperament, and strength. Although among the Supreme Six, Senior Brother Yi and Senior Brother Song are always stronger than you, you were forever the best in my heart.”

Her face began to turn ferocious as if she had recalled something painful, and she put more strength into her foot. “But, in order to become stronger than them, you went to the Land of Demon and got yourself this damnable Toad Fiend Technique, transforming yourself into a monster, a toad…an UGLY TOAD!”

Two streams of tears trickled down her cheeks, and her eyes were filled with hatred. She gave his head a few kicks, then said in a fierce voice, “Have you ever thought of my feelings? The feeling about the fact that my handsome husband had changed into a toad? Do you know what those people are talking about me behind us? Damn you! Ever since you transformed into a toad whenever you were cultivating, my love for you had begun to diminish, and in the end, I wanted nothing but to kill you!”

Puke!

Her kick made Li Wenshi cough out another mouthful of blood. His eyes began to turn blank, and his pupils dilated. Before very long, the flashing of a trace of obsession in his eyes stopped before melting and fading away.

“Haha, haha! You’re dead at last!” Sun Xiumei burst out laughing wildly, as if she were in the height of her joy. Suddenly, she stopped in place to give Yunxiao and Ji Meng a cold glance, and scoffed, “Do you want to kill me? Well, follow me if you think you can do that!” When she had finished, she transformed into a watery shadow and bolted up toward the mountaintop.

While scowling, both Ji Meng and Darkthunder were about to chase after her.

“No, let her go!” Yunxiao strode over and slapped Ji Meng on the back. A dozen needles shot out of him, piercing into some trees and coming out of the other side of the trunks. The color on the needles was mostly faded.

Ji Meng felt all his strength drained in an instant; he could no longer remain standing and collapsed to the ground.

Yunxiao quickly helped him up as he took out a few medicinal pills and shoved them into his mouth. Putting him on Darkthunder’s back, he patted the latter on the head and said, “Darkie, take him down the mountain and back to the city of Anyong!”

The intelligence of a demon beast increased with its level. As a fifth-tier demon beast, this Darkthunder already had the intelligence of a human child. And after being trained by Xu Pinghong for years, it could understand its master. With a reluctant look, it rubbed its head against Yunxiao’s arm.

“Haha! Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon.” He patted the beast’s head and chased it off the mountain.
