Chapter 206 Challenge
"This must be Patriarch Qingjun. He looks quite young."
"What do you know? The ancestor's strength is unfathomable, so the art of preserving youth is naturally beyond his grasp."
"I heard that our ancestor is over five thousand years old and is still the oldest person on land."
"I don't even know what the ancestor looked like; I can't see him at all."
"What are you thinking? How could we possibly see the appearance of our ancestor? Let's focus on solving the problem at hand."
The Xuanshan Sect has many disciples, and such whispers are not uncommon. However, what people talk about more is that the giant dragon is still coiled in the clouds.
Several years ago, I heard that a mythical beast had appeared in the world, but it was taken away by a mysterious person and then the matter was dropped. No one knows the mystery behind it, as if that matter was just a misconception.
Now that they were able to witness the appearance of the divine beast, everyone present was astonished by this scene.
But what's even more surprising is that their ancestor was actually the one who subdued the divine beast! ∑(°Д°)！ ！ ！
Nothing could be more impactful than this, making one almost forget that two armies are facing off!
Liu Jun turned around and looked at Qing Liye and the others in the distance again. Outside the mountain-protecting formation, only she and the others were there; Liu Jun had not fallen into the formation.
Qing Liye flew several meters away alone, a hint of inquiry in her eyes: "So, this is your true face?"
Liu Jun looked at him indifferently, never expecting that this day would come so quickly. However, his purpose for coming here had changed; he was not here for Lu Xihan, but for her.
Liu Jun looked as far as he could see, and the demonic soldiers were still being teleported over, their demonic energy spreading continuously, causing harm to all the small living creatures around them.
Liu Jun looked at him, his expression growing colder: "A mere tens of thousands of demon soldiers are enough for me alone."
"Ha, that's pretty arrogant."
She was a demon envoy, she returned from the Fengye Mountains, and she is now—she gives him a completely different feeling.
One was cunning, one was arrogant, and one was... cold.
Which one is she really? Qing Liye couldn't figure it out.
This legendary half-step immortal, Ancestor Qingjun, if he hadn't been caught off guard and ambushed back then, he would have really wanted to have a good fight with such a person and see what the difference was between those at the same Tribulation Transcending Realm.
"Fight me fair and square. If you win, the demons will never offend again. If you lose, then my demon realm will take over this land from now on. How about it?"
"Ha, do you really think you can defeat me?"
Liu Jun's eyelids were half closed: "I'm not in a good mood today. The Demon Realm broke the agreement first and invaded the Immortal Realm's territory without cause. They must pay the price!"
"Geng Wuji! A demon has caused trouble, what should we do?"
"If it is a demon, it shall be imprisoned in the abyss, never to emerge again!"
The creature hovering in the clouds suddenly spoke human language.
Liu Jun smiled calmly: "Unfortunately, the demons of today are far inferior to the demons of the past."
"May all the demons that invade today be annihilated!"
"Yes!"
That sound seemed to carry an air of exhilaration.
It has been far too long since he fought alongside an adult. Today is his first battle since his return.
"Roar!!!"
With a dragon's roar, the enormous creature flew down from the sky and swept into the ranks of the demon soldiers.
The carnage began from there.
"Disciples, heed my command! Eliminate the demons and defend the righteous path!"
"Yes!"
The great formation was withdrawn, and everyone in the mountains rushed out to join the battle.
The two were still locked in a standoff and had not yet made a move when, at a certain moment, Qing Liye summoned his weapon and attacked Liu Jun. Liu Jun dodged and then summoned his natal sword to fight him.
Although she is now the number one below the Immortal Realm, she is still bound by the Heavenly Dao of this world. Even with those memories, she still has to take competitions with people of the same realm seriously.
The two exchanged hundreds of moves without either gaining the upper hand. After their swordplay was over, they began to use magic to counter each other.
The battlefield below wasn't much better. Immortal disciples were fighting against demon soldiers. Although Geng Wuji was helping them, the opposing force was too numerous, and it was difficult to determine a winner for the time being.
What was once a beautiful place has been turned into a bloody and devastated battlefield.
This battle was fierce and chaotic, with other sects arriving to provide support during the fighting.
As long as the teleportation array remains, demonic soldiers will continue to arrive. Liu Jun flew to the teleportation array during a break in his battle with Qing Liye, waiting for an opportunity to destroy it.
Once the formation was destroyed, the remaining demon soldiers were wiped out one by one, and the battle situation gradually became clear.
Throughout the fight between Liu Jun and Qing Liye, Liu Jun held back and did not kill her.
After this battle, regardless of whether he fulfills his promise or not, he will return to the Demon Realm to recuperate. With such a Demon Lord around, Wei Qiushuang will not be able to cause any trouble, and the final battle will be different.
As for why she wasn't killed or the demon race wiped out, killing one Wei Qiushuang would only lead to another emerging—that's an unchanging law. Liu Jun needed to keep her out of the open. As for wiping out the demon race, she wasn't capable of that yet.
In this world, there is both good and evil. As long as people have emotions and desires, evil will never be eradicated.
As for Lu Xihan's matter, she has already made plans.
The outcome of this great battle is already quite clear.
Liu Jun pierced Qing Liye's shoulder with his sword, and the outcome was decided.
Qing Liye's robes were torn, and he had several wounds on his body. He was no longer as radiant as when they first met. Despite his miserable state, he didn't look too disheveled, but there was some resentment on his face.
"Wouldn't it be better to stab him right in the heart? Why?"
Liu Jun sheathed his sword and glanced at a scar on his arm.
"The fact that you can hurt me is enough to prove your ability."
Qing Liye still couldn't see through her: "What exactly are you thinking?"
"The Demon Realm still needs you. Remember your promise."
Liu Jun paused for a moment, looked at him, her eyes filled with an inscrutable emotion: "You've grown up quite a bit. You're not like that woman."
Qing Liye was taken aback. What did she mean by that?
(Do you know, I regret saving you back then)
Is this "back then" when we were in the Demon Realm, or...?
Qing Liye suddenly opened her eyes wide and stared straight at the woman in front of her.
Her veil was never lifted, but he thought her appearance was no different from when she was in the Demon Realm. He forgot that it was just the appearance of a puppet, not her true appearance.
And his true appearance...
On that day, he truly gained liberation and freedom.
He wanted to follow her, anywhere would be fine with him.
However, she left behind only spirit stones and pills, and then left without looking back.
All he knew was that his savior was an extremely beautiful older sister.
But later, he desperately studied skills and returned to the Demon Realm, climbing step by step to the supreme position.
In order to secure his position, he desperately tried to forget his unbearable past, to the point that he completely forgot about those things.
So much time has passed that he has truly forgotten the past, the pain, and that person.
Whenever he tried to recall it, all that remained in his memory was a blurry image and those eyes that looked at him with pity as they left.
There was no pity or other emotion in her eyes, and she didn't look at him as if she were looking at an old friend, but the eyes in her memory overlapped.
Qing Liye's fingers suddenly trembled uncontrollably. He looked at her for a long time, then suddenly turned away, leaving only the words "I will keep my promise" before disappearing without a trace.
At this moment, Geng Wuji had already transformed into human form and stood silently behind Liu Jun, waiting for her to speak.
A sudden war turned the area in front of Xuanshan Gate into ruins, and it will take several years to recover from its devastation.
Many disciples in the sect were killed or injured. If it weren't for Geng Wuji, the casualties would likely have been even greater. This is the cruelty of the cultivation world. But compared to the Battle of Lingshui, this was just a minor skirmish.
Liu Jun looked at Geng Wuji behind him, then turned his gaze to Xuan Wu, who was further behind.
He, on the other hand, only killed a few demon soldiers and a guardian before not making a move again. Now, he is flying over to see if she is alright, showing great concern.
"Xing'er..."
Liu Jun coldly replied, "My name is Liu Jun, please don't call me by the wrong name, nephew."
Xuan Yin looked at her cautiously, opened his mouth but didn't say anything in the end, and when he saw the wound on her arm, his eyes were filled with heartache.
"Your injury..."
"The injury from the demonic weapon is only minor, it won't kill you."
Watching the interaction and conversation between the two, Geng Wuji looked at this person he was meeting for the second time with some doubt.
This person... is completely different from when we first met.
"Wuji, return to Qiwu Peak."
Liu Jun didn't want to pay attention to that person; she only wanted to go back and fix the clothes she was wearing, since she had been wearing them all along.
"Yes."
