First Immortal of the Sword

As the crowd was overcome with astonishment, Libationer Yun Qiong suddenly spoke. “Release our holy son and return the Qilin True Blood or die!!”

The terrifying pressure of an Immortal Lord shook the hall, making the entire palace tremble.

The crowd looked stricken.

Yun Qiong’s hair and beard bristled with anger, and his eyes surged with appalling murderous intent. A blood-colored totem condensed out of Saint Realm Laws appeared behind him.

It was like a blazing sun, capable of incinerating all of creation!

Qing Wei, Xing Yu, Feng Yeyun, and the others prepared to face a powerful foe. Their expressions were grave, as they caught a hint of a potentially lethal threat emanating from Yun Qiong!

At the same time, Xiao Ju, Immortal Lords Nine Cranes and Talisman Flame, and the others readied themselves for battle. All of them seethed with murderous intent.

Zhong Qi was still trapped on the ground. He gazed hatefully at Su Yi and hissed, if you kill me, you won’t be the only one to pay the price. Your sect won’t escape either, and we’ll kill your family and friends down to the last man!”

All eyes were instantly on Su Yi.

Bang!

Zhong Qi’s physical body exploded, and his soul disintegrated into powder.

Destroyed, body and soul, as if he were no more than an ant.

“You’re mad with arrogance, and you don't know your place. It’s truly surprising that someone of your caliber could become a holy son.” Su Yi subtly shook his head.

The crowd’s heart shook.

Su Yi’s domineeringness was no mere act. It was bone deep. He disregarded all threats, killing at the drop of a hat without reservation.

And he seemed perfectly relaxed and composed as he did it, too. This only brought the crowd an even greater shock.

“Bastard——!” Libationer Yun Qiong’s eyes were bloodshot. He was thoroughly enraged, and he attacked directly.

Boom!

He shifted through the air and swung his palm at Su yi.

Qing Wei, Immortal Lord Xing Ye, and Feng Yeyun looked stricken. They didn’t hesitate to intercept him.

But when they did, Xiao Ju, Immortal Lord Nine Cranes, and the others intercepted them in turn.

A group of Immortal Lords was locked in battle. How terrifying was that?

Immortal light ran rampant. The power of the Laws and terrifying destructive power swept outward. Auspicious Cloud Palace was now a vision of chaos and destruction.

Countless people shrieked in terror and fled. Even the Void Realm True Immortals fled for fear of getting swept into this.

Su Yi flashed through the air and arrived in front of Fang Han, his gaze calm and profound. He said flatly, “See? The show has only just begun.”

Fang Han’s scalp was numb with fright. He’d long since frozen with astonishment. His entire body was stiff, and he couldn’t even speak.

Ultimately, he was just a boy in his early teens, and his cultivation was weak. No matter how stubborn and proud he was, how could he have experienced anything like this before?

In truth, it wasn’t just him, either. The Void Realm True Immortals and Universe Realm Immortals were panicked and overcome with fright too.

How could an Immortal Lord’s power possibly be ordinary?

But now, more than ten of them were fighting at once!

When they went all out, the aftershock alone was more than ordinary Immortals could endure!

Around a dozen of the juniors died brutal deaths; when the Immortal Lords’ power swept past them, it destroyed their bodies and scattered their souls.

When they got ruthless, they’d kill even their own!

Of course, they weren’t doing it on purpose. When you used your moat to put out a fire, it was the moat’s fish that suffered. The same applied here.

If Su Yi hadn’t rushed to Fang Han’s aid immediately, he’d be dead by now too.

“Kill him!”

Libationer Yun Qiong bristled with anger and charged at Su Yi, bursting through the encirclement with terrifying momentum.

Feng Yeyun, Xing Yu, and the others wanted to help, but Xiao Ju, Immortal Lord Nine Cranes, and the others restricted them. There was nothing they could do to stop the libationer.

It was Qing Wei who displayed terrifying immortal force. Her graceful figure was like a saber’s edge slashing through her enemies’ encirclement to appear in Yun Qiong’s path.

“Scram!” Yun Qiong bellowed and waved his hand. Countless blood-colored lights fell with terrifying murderous intent.

Even though Qing Wei tried her utmost to block, the impact made her stagger backward. Blood dripped from the corners of her mouth, and her charming, beautiful face paled.

Su Yi furrowed his brow.

Libationer Yun Qiong’s strength surpassed his predictions, but that was all.

Su Yi had chosen to attend this assembly. Naturally, he’d prepared accordingly.

But it wasn’t yet time for him to take action.

“Go!” Qing Wei attacked with everything she had, unleashing a secret art. A dazzling windstorm of immortal light swept forth, intercepting Libationer Yun Qiong once more.

Its power was so terrifying that some of the nearby Void Realm Yao Immortals couldn’t take it. The raging gales tore them to pieces, killing them on the spot.

“You’re courting death!!” Yun Qiong roared. His sleeves billowed as he struck the air. Terrifying blood-red light cleaved through the winds like a divine mountain in motion, then slammed into Qing Wei.

Qing Wei’s delicate figure was sent flying back. Her long hair hung loose, and her beautiful face filled with alarm. The old bastard’s still got terrifying strength left!

“Protect this little guy. I’ll deal with the old man,” said Su Yi. He walked over, his eyes flashing with intimidating light.

Qing Wei nodded, a bit ashamed of herself.

“Die!”

Libationer Yun Qiong attacked. His Immortal Lord Laws blanketed heaven and earth. Even the other Immortal Lords present would have struggled to block them.

But before Su Yi could respond——

A petite, slender figure appeared out of nowhere, stretched out her hand and grabbed, then smacked the air.

Boom!

The blood-colored light shattered.

Before Libationer Yun Qiong could react, a slap sent him flying. He slammed into the palace walls, shaking the formations.

The impact left him seeing stars and in so much pain that he almost coughed up blood. The look on his face shifted dramatically.

Meanwhile, an avalanche of imposing pressure burst from that petite, slender figure and swept throughout the hall.

The clashing Immortal Lords reacted as if they’d been struck by lightning. All of them stopped what they were doing, frozen in place, panicked, and too afraid to try anything reckless.

Instinct told them that a single move out of turn could bring about their dooms!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A rapid-fire series of blasts reverberated throughout the hall.

Every member of the Church of All Spirits below the rank of Immortal Lord, both the Void Realm True Immortals and the Universe Realm Immortals, was forced to their knees, as helpless as grass caught up in a fierce autumn gale.

There were no exceptions.

Only Su Yi, Qing Wei, Fang Han, and their allies remained unaffected.

However, this sudden development made Qing Wei gasp. Her beautiful eyes gazed intently at that petite figure, full of alarm and bewilderment.

She was a young woman who looked maybe fifteen or sixteen. Her clothes were plain, undyed cloth, and her long hair hung loose.

Her most striking feature was her dark golden eyes. They were calm and inscrutable, and they gave her a dignified air, as if she stood above all others.

But Su Yi’s gaze landed on her ankles. Each had a blood-red chain as thick as his thumb around it, like shackles!

Just as I guessed. The one watching my every move from the shadows was this dragon, thought Su Yi.

Prior to this, Feng Yeyun, the owner of the Generalists’ Tower, came to apologize to him in person, leaving behind a precious Saint-level immortal medicinal ingredient.

When he rescued Fang Han from a life of slavery, conflict broke out, only for a lieutenant of the Black Dragon Guards to apologize to him in front of the crowd.

And tonight, both Feng Yeyun and Xing Yu staunchly stood beside him, even at the cost of offending the Church of All Spirits.

All of this combined told Su Yi that someone in the Black Dragon Market was watching his every move from the shadows.

He was fairly certain that they were none other than the mysterious Red Dragon Dao Monarch.

He was so convinced that even during his confrontation with the Church of All Spirits, Su Yi wanted to test and see whether creating a large enough commotion could draw the elusive Red Dragon Dao Monarch out of hiding.

And it had worked, just as he’d expected.

The only thing that surprised Su Yi was that this mysterious figure, someone so secretive that no one even dared investigate their origins, was actually… a woman!

When Su Yi saw the red chains binding her ankles, he vaguely understood why she was “looking out for him.”

That old scoundrel must have long since predicted this, Su Yi grumbled to himself.

……

Within the grand hall, the atmosphere was deathly silent.

Everyone gazed at the girl who’d appeared out of nowhere in terror. Their hearts and bodies quivered.

An Immortal Queen!

No wonder she managed to intimidate the entire hall and suppress a group of experts as soon as she arrived!

When they saw her, Feng Yeyun and Xing Yu felt a massive weight lift from their shoulders. Both approached and bowed in greeting.

“Greetings, Dao Monarch!”

Boom!

The crowd’s scalps went numb. This title immediately informed them of just who this new arrival was.

None of them would have guessed that the famously mysterious master of the Black Dragon Market would look like a teenage girl!

“Step aside.” The young woman stood there, her youthful features utterly composed and dignified.

Xie Yu and Feng Yeyun both retreated to the sidelines.

Meanwhile, Libationer Yun Qiong rose, his face ashen. “Given your status, why get mixed up in this storm?”

The girl said flatly, “Black Dragon Market is my territory. What need do I have to explain myself to you?”

Yun Qiong’s heart sank. “Does that mean you’re determined to stick out your neck on that young man’s behalf even if it means offending the Church of All Spirits?”

The atmosphere was so stifled that the crowd could barely breathe.

The girl earnestly corrected, “No, I’m here in search of my own salvation, so…”

Her dark golden eyes swept across the room. “Today, all of you must die.”

These light, airy words swept outward, carrying a bone-piercing chill. The hall wasn’t cold, but the members of the Church of All Spirits shivered.

This assembly was supposed to be a joyous occasion. Who could have imagined they’d meet their dooms here?

Before Libationer Yun Qiong could say anything, Immortal Lord Nine Cranes said in a quavering voice, “Senior, this old man only just agreed to join the Church of All Spirits, and I’ve yet to truly become a member. I’ve already realized the error of my ways, and I’ll earnestly make amends and turn over a new leaf. Please, spare my life!”

With that, he bowed, his expression pleading.

He was a venerable, white-haired elder, a prominent and influential Immortal Lord.

But in the face of the seemingly fifteen or sixteen-year-old Red Dragon Dao Monarch, he seemed frantic, terrified, and as humble as could be.

Yun Qiong, Xiao Ju, and the others were shocked and furious.

But it wasn’t over.

After Immortal Lord Nine Cranes caved, Immortal Lord Talisman Flame and the other new recruits spoke up in turn. All of them lowered their heads in submission to the Red Dragon Dao Monarch!

The crowd’s eyes widened just watching this.

It was like a poem: “She transformed the wind and clouds with a snap of her fingers, and the city’s flags took on her colors!”
