Qingyu City
In just one day, half of this water country's main city was destroyed by bone demons.
Looking around, chaotic scenes of collapsed houses and fleeing crowds were everywhere.
Boom!
A dark silhouette was sent flying out of the smoke, its immense impact toppling several buildings in succession.
The entire street cracked with a deep ravine due to such a strong impact, and a large amount of dust and smoke rolled up with the sound of explosions.
This made the fleeing people even more panicked, thinking that the bone demons had caught up to tear them apart.
After the smoke and dust dispersed, one of the bone demons appeared amidst the ruins.
However, what was strange was that this bone demon seemed to be severely injured, with all the white bone spikes on its back broken.
The people on the street couldn't help but feel a hint of surprise. Who had beaten this bone demon to such a state?
A one-armed, one-eyed man holding a pitch-black sword walked over from a few hundred meters opposite the bone demon.
This person was Mo Qian.
Mo Qian, holding the top-grade True Artifact Mo Ye Sword, his eyes were cold and chilling, approaching the bone demon step by step like a Shura from hell.
The bone demon had long lost its human consciousness and did not know what pain was.
Their sole purpose in being created by the Moon Demon Ghost was to become killing machines!
Even though the bone demon's body had already been shattered by Mo Qian earlier, it still had fierce eyes, roared at Mo Qian, and pounced.
Mo Qian stared coldly at the bone demon, swinging the Mo Ye Sword without hesitation.
The sword energy soared into the sky, like a demonic dragon, opening its sharp claws and rushing into the clouds.
With one sword strike, heaven and earth were shaken!
The sword wave passed through the bone demon's body, and before it could let out any screams, it was annihilated into powder.
The people who were fleeing at the time were so astonished by this scene that they couldn't help but stop and watch.
Mo Qian calmly sheathed the Mo Ye Sword and indifferently uttered, "Three more left."
Before the rescued people could thank him, Mo Qian quickly departed to hunt down the remaining three bone demons.
At the same time, Xin Ci and Luo Ning Shuang from the Killing Heart Holy Court also began their actions.
The two of them had arrived in the water country three days prior.
Since the assassination mission was being conducted in secret, they had not
revealed their presence and were waiting for an opportunity in the shadows.
Now that the Moon Demon Ghost had led four bone demons to attack the water country and wreak havoc in Qingyu City,
Xin Ci and Luo Ning Shuang, who were in hiding, discussed and decided to deal with the most powerful Moon Demon Ghost first.
After all, this Underworld God was the culprit behind the chaos in the Five Eastern Provinces, and he could not be allowed to escape.
The Moon Demon Ghost cackled in the sky, enjoying the sight of the four bone demons, whom he had refined into demonic soldier weapons, slaughtering human slaves in Qingyu City.
Then, he descended onto a tall tower, looking down at the fleeing ants on the ground, his scarlet eyes filled with mockery.
Suddenly, the Moon Demon Ghost sensed a dangerous aura approaching him. He flapped his six wings and immediately left the tower.
In the next moment, an arrow carrying destructive energy shot from somewhere.
A single arrow turned the high tower where the Moon Demon Ghost had just stopped into rubble, causing a massive explosion.
As debris and smoke filled the air, the Moon Demon Ghost flew out of the smoke, and sixteen silver chains shot through the sky.
Caught off guard, the Moon Demon Ghost was bound by the Sixteen Star-Moon Chains.
Before he could break free from the chains, they suddenly retracted.
He was dragged from the sky to the ground, creating a large pit with dust and smoke everywhere.
"Now's our chance!"
A voice echoed from within a building.
Immediately after, two women in black robes flew out of a building.
These two were Xin Ci and Luo Ning Shuang, disguised as women.
While the Moon Demon Ghost was bound by the Sixteen Star-Moon Chains, they decisively emerged from the shadows.
Xin Ci held the Xuan Yang Sword, while Luo Ning Shuang gripped her high-grade True Artifact Qian Ying Spear.
Without a word, they simultaneously unleashed their respective advanced True Meanings towards the Moon Demon Ghost.
Rumble!
Under the immense power of their True Meaning martial arts, the surrounding buildings collapsed, and the ground where the Moon Demon Ghost stood was blasted into a bottomless pit.
However, after the smoke dissipated, the Moon Demon Ghost surprisingly flew out of the deep pit completely unharmed.
His blood-red eyes fixed on the two Heavenly Venerate realm humans, seemingly extremely angered by the sneak attack.
"Mere human slaves, daring to attempt to take my life, you are seeking death!"
The Moon Demon Ghost roared furiously.
This roar carried a turbulent power that distorted space, threatening to shatter at any moment.
Luo Ning Shuang and Xin Ci were both forced to their knees by this powerful force.
Luo Ning Shuang's physique was not as strong as Xin Ci's, and her internal organs suffered considerable impact, with blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.
This Moon Demon Ghost was indeed one of the Underworld God race, its power was formidable.
Moreover, judging by its aura, it was at least at the level of a Three-star Saint Emperor.
Xin Ci and Luo Ning Shuang were no match for it in their current state.
Mu Qing Qing, in the spiritual consciousness space, transmitted to Xin Ci, "Xin Ci, this Moon Demon Ghost is too powerful. You should switch personalities to deal with him."
But Xin Ci did not switch personalities immediately. Instead, he said, "Qing Qing, I want to see how much of a gap there is between my current self and a Saint Emperor. When I can't win, I'll hand it over to you."
"Alright."
Mu Qing Qing nodded.
Xin Ci smiled slightly, "Thank you, Qing Qing."
Frankly, Xin Ci was happy that Mu Qing Qing wanted to help him.
But he also wanted to see how far his own strength had reached and didn't want to be a burden to Mu Qing Qing.
However, before he could make a move, Luo Ning Shuang beside him acted first.
For some reason, ever since this Moon Demon Ghost appeared, Luo Ning Shuang, who was usually cold and silent, had a strange expression and her actions had become much more impulsive.
Now, she rashly charged forward without consulting Xin Ci.
"Moon Demon Ghost, I will make you pay for our past grievances today!"
Disregarding her previous internal injuries, Luo Ning Shuang directly activated the Asura Battle Method of the Asura Palace.
Her Asura Battle Method had already been cultivated to the third level.
Upon activation, Luo Ning Shuang's True Essence turned blood-red, and a violent, malevolent aura erupted from her body.
Her entire being transformed into a hellish Asura under the terrifying might, and her combat power instantly rose from five-star Heavenly Venerate to one-star Saint Emperor.
Is this the Asura Battle Method?
Xin Ci couldn't help but marvel at the power of this supreme True Meaning martial art of the Asura Palace.
However, he quickly rushed to support Luo Ning Shuang.
After all, the Moon Demon Ghost was a three-star Saint Emperor. Even with Luo Ning Shuang using the Asura Battle Method, the hope of defeating him was slim.
In the eyes of the Moon Demon Ghost, Luo Ning Shuang was merely a slightly stronger ant than before, beneath his notice.
Nether energy condensed in his hand into a black spear, and he flapped his six wings, charging downwards.
