YM778.TV Chapter 62
She took a deep breath.
Faced with Ling Xue’s behavior—making her run here for nothing and even deliberately shaking her confidence—she could only express her helplessness.
After glaring fiercely at Ling Xue, she withdrew her gaze, turned around, and stepped into the space rift that Ling Xue had torn open.
Liu Wenwan glanced at Ling Xue and followed suit.
Now that the great battle was nearing its conclusion, there was nothing left to see.
What needed to be seen had already been witnessed.
Ling Xue… was terrifying!
Now, he seemed even more terrifying than before!
In the future, it was best to stick close to Ling Xue, and no matter what, it would be best to never stand on the opposite side of him.
Otherwise, no one would have a good end!
After Liu Wenwan, Liu Chengshuang also turned to leave.
However, just as she was about to step into the space rift, she suddenly turned her head, looked at Ling Xue, and said,
“Goodbye, Lord Demon Master. My name is Liu Chengshuang!”
She had mustered the courage to say this out of instinct, trying to introduce herself to Ling Xue.
Ling Xue, of course, understood this.
He didn’t say much, just gave Liu Chengshuang a faint smile before turning around.
He certainly knew Liu Chengshuang—she was Liu Wenwan’s daughter!
And as for her biological father… well, he had a bit of a background.
Ling Xue’s silent smile made Liu Chengshuang feel overjoyed. He smiled at me.
At the very least, this proved one thing:
He didn’t dislike her.
In fact, between dislike and liking, he was probably leaning toward the latter.
With that, she had successfully entered his thoughts; at least she had left an impression.
Liu Chengshuang smiled too, then turned and left joyfully.
As the space rift dissipated, Ling Xue remained alone in midair.
His gaze swept across the battlefield, where the battle was almost over.
The empire, both in terms of numbers and the strength of its army, was utterly crushed.
By now, they had almost no one left!
Next, Ling Xue slowly raised his hand,
and then, the Qian Kun Sword Technique was activated once again!
Ye Feng was dead, and his goal had been achieved.
Now… it was time to clean up!
Swish, swish, swish…
In the next moment, an immense amount of blood-red sword energy erupted from Ling Xue’s body.
The sky filled with blood-red sword energy, like a crimson rain of light, surged toward the battlefield.
Afterward, every person in the battle, including Ye Dingtian and the rest of the Taixuan Empire’s forces, was pierced through by Ling Xue’s sword energy.
Now that Ling Xue had reached the extreme martial realm, the power of the Qian Kun Sword Technique had naturally increased tremendously.
Even Ye Dingtian couldn’t block a single thin thread of sword energy!
The vast sword energy howled through the battlefield.
Each strand of sword energy seemed to possess its own consciousness, targeting only those from the Taixuan Empire without harming a single person from the Demon Sect.
Ye Dingtian and the others, in their final moments, all wore expressions of despair and ferocity.
Then, they perished!
The remnants of the empire’s army and its mighty warriors were wiped out in this single move by Ling Xue.
Just as Ling Xue had said from the start!
Leave none alive!
With a single stroke of the sword, the battle came to an end.
The Taixuan Empire was no more, and its capital was reduced to ashes.
All its people, including Ye Feng and Ye Yun, were reduced to ashes as well!
Everything had come to an end.
From now on, there would be no more Taixuan Empire in the Yuan Yang Continent.
This world would no longer have its protagonist!
And the Demon Sect’s side suffered almost no losses.
The most severely injured among them was Yan Kui, who had fought fiercely against Ye Cangqing.
As the battle ended, the once-thriving capital became deathly silent.
Only a few massive demon beasts, along with the Demon Sect and Qian Ling Ancient Clan’s elite troops, remained in midair.
Below, boundless blood-red mist spread across the ground, surrounded by spectators who had come to watch.
Today, everyone has witnessed the fall of an empire with their own eyes.
To the Demon Sect, the destruction of an empire was as simple as flipping a hand!
Back when the Demon Sect dominated the world, everyone believed that the sect would crumble after Ling Xue’s father died.
But now, everyone once again saw the Demon Sect’s brilliance.
They saw the brilliance of the new Demon Master, Ling Xue.
The future of the Demon Sect would be even stronger than before!
Even more… unstoppable!
The Demon Sect’s forces and the Qian Ling Ancient Clan’s army began to gather.
Yan Kui approached Ling Xue, looking confused, and asked, “Young master, what did you just do? How did your strength suddenly break through?”
“As Elder Yan saw, I completely devoured Ye Cangqing’s spiritual energy,” Ling Xue replied with a faint smile.
“But earlier, didn’t young master…” Yan Kui was puzzled.
From what he had seen, Ling Xue hadn’t devoured Ye Cangqing’s spiritual energy but instead extracted it and dissipated it.
Could it be that I saw wrong?
“Elder Yan, you must have been mistaken,” Ling Xue smiled again.
Hiss…
Yan Kui furrowed his brow.
Had I seen it wrong?
It wasn’t impossible. After all, he had fought fiercely with Ye Cangqing, and his injuries were quite severe. Feeling a bit dazed was understandable…
“Incredible, your Demon Sect just took down an entire empire!”
At this moment, Yu Youyou approached Ling Xue, smiling as she said, “This empire is so vast, with so many people. From now on, all of them belong to your Demon Sect!”
However, Ling Xue smiled and said, “The Demon Sect does not support the weak! This land of the Taixuan Empire, and its people, are of no use to us!”
The Demon Sect did not need too much territory. The Demon Sect was not a regime like a court!
Ling Xue’s only goal was to destroy the Taixuan Empire, not to seize the empire and govern its people.
The vast, useless land of the Taixuan Empire and its commoners were not something the Demon Sect needed!
“You’re giving it up? But with so many people… wouldn’t it be better to have more to cultivate talents?” Yu Youyou didn’t understand.
She had been an emperor before, so she couldn’t understand the Demon Sect’s ways.
The Demon Sect’s creed was always “better fewer than weaker.”
“If you’re interested, you can take over the empire!”
Ling Xue smiled at Yu Youyou and said, “After all, you’ve been an emperor before!”
“Really? So, you’re giving me this empire?” Yu Youyou’s eyes lit up.
“Just make sure you bring some value to it,” Ling Xue replied indifferently.
He had no interest in ruling an empire or supporting a bunch of commoners.
If Yu Youyou took over and could create something valuable from it, well, since she belonged to the Demon Sect, the value generated would also belong to the Demon Sect.
“Of course, I have experience!”
Yu Youyou boasted, “Then it’s settled. This empire is mine! From now on, I am the empress of this empire! Hmm… let’s rename it to the Demon Sect’s vassal state, Youmo Empire! How about that?”
She wasn’t very good at naming things.
But Ling Xue didn’t care about that at all.
As long as it was under the Demon Sect, the name didn’t matter!
“Hehe, from now on, I shall be Empress Youmo, hahaha!” Yu Youyou suddenly burst into laughter.
Though she was a delicate beauty with a mature figure, she was still a childish, whimsical woman!
At that moment, Qian Chen of the Qian Ling Ancient Clan arrived with Qian Xue, stopping in front of Ling Xue.
The Qian Ling Ancient Clan’s performance in this battle was commendable!
They had fought fiercely and killed many enemies.
“Go back and prepare. Our next target… is the Thirty-Six Immortal Palaces!”
Ling Xue said to Qian Chen indifferently.
Now that the Taixuan Empire was destroyed, and the protagonist was dead, it was time to begin his conquest of the world.
He would start by eliminating the remaining five major forces!
The next target was the Thirty-Six Immortal Palaces, former traitors of the Demon Sect.
But for now, they would return and reorganize for a few days.
Besides… now that he had reached the extreme martial realm, he should be able to enter the third level of the Shura Purgatory Tower.
He wondered what kind of entity was sealed there.
