Chapter 2016: There Is No Way You Are Stronger Than the One From the Capital

Qiu Honglei held onto Zu An’s arm with a sweet smile as she retorted, “Martial uncle Chi Fuzi, did you lose your head after your defeat? My master is such an incredible beauty, so how could she be that old fart, Yan Xiangu?”

When he heard her praise his beauty, Zu An felt a chill, but he couldn't argue against it and could only remain silent.

The others around him all roared with laughter. They all ridiculed Chi Fuzi and Lu Sanyuan for being sore losers. This person in front of them was Sect Master Yun! Why would those two think that she was Yan Xiangu? Were they blind?

There were a few higher-level members who were confused, however. There was no way Lu Sanyuan and Chi Fuzi would say such a thing as a joke. Furthermore, this Sect Master Yun was a bit strange in certain ways. At the very least, the Sect Master Yun they knew couldn't win against Lu Sanyuan so easily. However, whether it was this person’s appearance or weapons, they were identical to Sect Master Yun, so those people really couldn't imagine how someone else could impersonate her so well. They could only attribute it to a recent breakthrough Sect Master Yun had made in secluded cultivation.

Chi Fuzi said seriously, “I did indeed underestimate you. But do you really think you have already won?”

At that moment, a formation disc appeared in his hand. Light flickered nearby, and he and Lu Sanyuan vanished.

“That’s the Secret Path’s Astrological Vanishing Technique!” There was someone who recognized what had happened. This kind of skill often had a predetermined safe location. If it was activated, the user could immediately move to that location, making it an exceptional protective measure. How could the user's opponent possibly find them in a short amount of time?

Many people sighed. The Secret Path really had endless methods, and they were all really hard to defend against. Forget about Sect Master Yun and the saintess, not even they could keep up if they were schemed against by a dangerous enemy like this.

However, a water-like ripple appeared in the sky. Immediately after, two figures dropped from above. They were none other than Chi Fuzi and Lu Sanyuan!

Chi Fuzi was laughing heartily as he said, “I was just laughing at Yun Jianyue’s slow wits. She clearly had the advantage, and yet she still wasted so much time speaking and gave me the chance to activate this formation. If she had attacked us immediately, how could we...”

Midway through his sentence, he saw Lu Sanyuan’s horrified expression, and he also realized that something wasn’t right. He looked around him, and his face paled. He murmured, “How? How are we still here...”

Even the World School and Freedom Path Masters were stunned.

What in the world is Chi Fuzi doing? I don’t recall him being someone who made these kinds of jokes!

Zu An smiled and remarked, “You never expected this, did you? I took the liberty of locking down this space when I took down your formation earlier.”

He was trying to save Yun Jianyue, so he had to make sure to do everything thoroughly. But of course, this was still a lesson he had learned from Violet Mountain. That was the best example of how a group of the world’s most powerful beings had used formations to scheme against the strongest being of this world.

Chi Fuzi’s face was swollen like an eggplant. He had never expected that his words would be thrown right back at him so quickly. It really was harsh to the ears.

He took out his formation disc and was about to bring out another one of the formations he was proud of when he suddenly heard a sigh next to his ear, and a voice saying, “Do you really think I'd give you another chance?”

He was horrified to discover that Yun Jianyue was already next to him, thrusting a finger at him. Even though he could clearly see that finger move toward him slowly, why couldn't he avoid it?

After being hit by the finger, all of his ki was sealed. He didn’t have any ability to retaliate anymore.

However, Zu An didn’t smile, and backed up with a grave expression. A moment later, a streak of bloody light appeared where he had just been. In that instant, space itself split apart, and an endless void appeared. If one were hit by this kind of power, one would be seriously injured, if not dead.

“Are you okay?” Qiu Honglei asked as she quickly arrived at Zu An's side. She examined his body with a worried look.

Zu An shook his head and turned to look at the opposing side with a grave expression.

Gasps filled the air from all around. Before the onlookers' eyes, an extremely strange scene appeared in front of them. Lu Sanyuan, who had lost the ability to move, stood back up again. Lumps of flesh surged wildly from where his hands had been were cut off, and they regrew rapidly at a visible rate.

Everyone watching felt their scalps turn numb. All high-level cultivators had the ability to regenerate, but the rate at which they did so was based on the severity of their wounds. Such injuries would frequently take several months to years to fully heal from. Regeneration at this kind of speed was unheard of. It looked disgusting and terrifying.

“What kind of situation is this? What are you? Get off me, ahhh!” Lu Sanyuan screamed bitterly.

He was the master of the Unfeeling Path, which cared about severing one’s emotions. He rarely showed any strong emotions. Even so, right now, everyone present could see just how scared he was.

“Kek kek kek... Don’t refuse me. I can help you experience what it’s like to be a higher level lifeform!” a sinister voice that carried an ear-piercing vibration said, emerging from his mouth. It didn’t seem like the voice of a human, and sounded more like a group of strange bugs.

“No, you cannot treat me like this! We are allies; you cannot go against our previous agreement!” Lu Sanyuan cried as his face distorted in pain.

“It was you who failed to complete our agreement first. Trash like you already no longer has the qualification to become my ally,” the buzzing voice said from his mouth again.

All of the Devil Sect members shivered when they heard these two entirely different voices come from a single person’s mouth. They all withdrew into the distance and watched Lu Sanyuan vigilantly.

Qiu Honglei was also a bit scared. She wasn’t scared of a fight, but she was scared of this kind of strange and unknown thing.

Zu An’s eyes narrowed.

Could it be...

Lu Sanyuan seemed to have understood his own fate. He asked in despair, “How did you enter my body?I clearly didn’t eat the pill you gave me!” A proud warrior like him would never trust another easily. Even now, he didn’t know how he had fallen for the other side’s tricks.

The buzzing voice snickered. “Did you think we messed with the pills we gave you? Stupid human, how could your pitiful intelligence understand our plans? We put our special measures in the treasures we gave you. You lusted after the strength they brought you, so of course you wouldn’t leave them unused. As long as you kept them on you, we would have a chance to take over your body. Of course, if you hadn’t suffered such a crushing defeat to the point that even your hands were chopped off, it might not have been so easy for me to enter your body.”

All of Lu Sanyuan's muscles began to squirm, as if something was transforming and modifying his body. His face swelled up, and layers of black and white patterns appeared. As time went on, he stopped looking like a human.

He turned to Zu An and said, “Senior sister, in the past, when my master was attacked by your master, the position of sect master was also stolen. All this time, I vowed to get revenge. I never expected that everything I did would only be to help this thing. Hurry and kill me, it... hurts! Aaaahhhh!”

What followed was a heart-rending scream. Pitch-black, bony spikes grew out of his arms and legs. His back split open, producing a set of carapace-like armor. The flesh under the armor continued to squirm, and several nodes of flesh began to sprout. They grew at a rapid pace, creating wings that were as thin as a cicada's. His original face was nowhere to be seen, now replaced by the head of a monster. A pair of giant mandibles emerged from his jaw. A cold glint flickered from them, as if they were a pair of reaper’s scythes.

“What kind of monster is this?!” people exclaimed. Where Stories Blossom: N♡vεlB¡n.

Even though the Devil Sect engaged in their fair share of killing and slaughter, even hunting countless beasts, they had never seen something like this before. That was especially true when their usually awe-inspiring Vice Sect Master had become a giant bug-like creature. It really was horrifying to watch.

“It was those monsters after all!” Zu An exclaimed, his expression turning ice-cold. He'd already had his suspicions. Apart from those monsters, who else had the ability to do something like this?

Unfortunately, the court could guard against a thousand things, but not an attack from the Devil Sect's side.

Chi Fuzi, who was the closest to Lu Sanyuan, finally reacted. He reflexively tried to run, but the space around him was restricted. His speed wasn’t his strong suit either. As soon as he took a step, the giant demonic bug caught up to him. Its sickle-like mandibles clamped together, and Chi Fuzi screamed miserably. His body was bisected at the waist.

When they saw that, the World School and Freedom Path Masters immediately backed up. Even though Chi Fuzi’s strength lay in his formations and his body was weaker, he was still one of the overlords and wasn't that weak. However, the opponent instantly slashed him in half...

At that moment, Chi Fuzi’s upper half was still conscious. He instinctively crawled into the distance, his face full of fear. He pleased, “Save me... Save...”

A second later, the giant bug’s chest suddenly ruptured open. The ribs that had once been inside had turned into rows of sharp teeth. Chi Fuzi’s body was swallowed up in a single gulp.

The onlookers were speechless.

Aren’t its jaws part of its head? Why is its chest also a mouth?

However, how could they still focus on with something like that? They all ran for their lives to get as far away from the monster as possible.

The demonic bug fluttered its wings, creating waves of earsplitting noises. Many of the troops who were farthest away clutched their heads in pain. Then, bony outgrowths appeared from their shoulders and limbs as well. They began to transform into bugs rapidly. Their resistance wasn’t as strong as Lu Sanyuan's, so they instantly became demonic bugs. They looked almost identical to the first one, with the only difference being that they were much smaller.

The sect members who had started running away just happened to run into them. The bugs opened their mouths, firing blasts of acidic fluid.

“Ahhh!”

Miserable screams filled the air one after another. The ones running at the forefront were caught off guard and hit. Then, they melted on the spot, becoming viscous blue puddles. Immediately after, the bugs launched a ruthless assault. Many sect members quickly lost their lives.

The ones present were almost all Devil Sect elites. If had they faced the enemy in a proper frontal assault, they wouldn’t have suffered such severe casualties. But when they saw Lu Sanyuan turn into a demonic bug, and saw the Secret Path Master being killed instantly, they had all lost their courage. How could they still mount a decent resistance?

Even though there were still people like Li Feiqing and Fatty Hu, who had tougher mentalities and called for their companions to fight back, their side was already in complete disarray. They couldn't face these demonic bugs who were unified in will at all.

Suddenly, there was a trace of silver moonlight that surrounded the whole place. The survivors saw a beautiful crescent moon.

A second later, the demonic bugs all stopped moving. Immediately after, their upper halves slid cleanly off their lower halves, bisected from a single thin slice. contemporary romance

In that instant, apart from the biggest demonic bug, all of the little demonic bugs were killed instantly!

“Long live Sect Master Yun!” The survivors were stunned at first, and then they cheered excitedly. Even those who had been on Lu Sanyuan’s side were hollering sincerely.

Zu An coldly scanned the surroundings and said, “Hua Feihua, Chen Taogong, lead the others and keep your disciples in order. Don’t let the previous chaos happen again.”

“Understood!” The two reflexively bowed in respect, but then they were stunned. Why did it feel so natural to listen to her? Still, since the other side didn’t seem to want to look into what had just happened, then that was their greatest blessing.

The giant bug stared at Zu An and said, “Human, you are quite strong, but no matter how strong you are, there is no way you are stronger than the one from the capital. You are doomed to become nutrients that nourish me.”
