The arrogant voice suddenly fell silent. The air suddenly twisted, revealing a young man dressed in magnificent robes, with an air of otherworldly grace, riding on auspicious clouds.
Her hair was as black as ink, neatly tied up, and her clothes fluttered in the wind, giving her an indescribable air of elegance and otherworldly grace.
Liu Lanyan looked up and saw the man. Her brows furrowed tightly, forming deep lines.
"Who are you?" The man stood on the rooftop, looking down at Liu Lanyan.
This woman actually broke through the barrier's restrictions. How could she be so powerful?
The man, who was waiting for an answer, suddenly realized that the woman was ignoring him and continued walking forward.
"Stop right there!" the man shouted. "This is no place for you to trespass."
"A mere woman from the demon realm is unworthy to set foot here." The man's voice was solemn, but his words were filled with an air of superiority.
He reprimanded Liu Lanyan as if she were a lowly commoner, his contempt for her was palpable.
"Even if you invited me to this filthy place with eight people carrying me in a sedan chair, I wouldn't set foot here." Liu Lanyan finally spoke, but what she said was enough to make the man furious.
"Insolence!" the man shouted angrily. "Do you know where you are?"
"A place to steal other people's secrets." Liu Lanyan mocked without any politeness, and the man's face darkened instantly.
"As expected of a lowly commoner from the demon realm, ignorant of the rules." The man sneered. Before anyone could see what he did, the faint mist around them suddenly condensed into chains of mist that wrapped around Liu Lanyan's body.
Without even blinking, Liu Lanyan was completely covered up.
"Since you've trespassed into a place you shouldn't have entered, your fate is sealed—death." The man coldly gave the order, showing no regard for Liu Lanyan's life.
For him, killing a demon from the demon realm was easier than crushing an ant; he didn't even have to waste much effort.
The moment the man uttered the word "death," the chains of mist tightened abruptly, capable of shredding the arrogant little demon to pieces in the blink of an eye.
"Naive!" Liu Lanyan sneered softly. As she spoke, the cloud chains that tightly bound her shattered and vanished with a bang.
The man's eyes widened in surprise, never expecting that a demon could break his demon-locking spell.
Unfortunately, what surprised him even more was yet to come. He felt a tightness around him, looked down, and gasped in shock. The same cloud-like chains, in the same spot, had him completely locked up.
"You dare to use such low-level stuff? The Immortal Realm is truly devoid of talent." Liu Lanyan scoffed softly. She simply disliked this person. What was with that arrogant attitude? Who was he trying to impress?
Clearly, the same demon-locking technique was not fatal to the man, nor could it lock him up.
Opening it was easy for him, but what shocked him was why a demon would use the Demon-Locking Technique.
The man's surprise only earned him a disdainful snort from Liu Lanyan, who ignored him and continued walking inside. This place was not suitable for a demon god to cultivate at all. What was that guy doing here?
Cultivation?
That's masochism.
"Stop!" the man snapped, waving his hand. Suddenly, a high wall of mist rose in front of Liu Lanyan, blocking her path. "Do you think this is a place you can just barge into?"
Little did anyone expect that Liu Lanyan would not stop walking at all, but would walk directly towards the high wall of clouds and mist, and then pass through the wall.
The high wall formed by the clouds and mist was truly nothing in reality.
Liu Lanyan passed through easily, but the man stared at her as if he had seen a ghost.
If that high wall doesn't even serve as a barrier, what's the point of building it?
"Who are you?" The man wasn't stupid. After witnessing Liu Lanyan's strength, he was certain that Liu Lanyan was definitely not a simple demon.
"It's none of your business." Liu Lanyan was too lazy to talk to this guy; she just wanted to find the Demon God as soon as possible.
This is no place for cultivation.
The man thought for a moment, then a cold smile appeared on his lips: "Since you won't tell me, I'll make you tell me."
As he spoke, the man uttered something, and the strange space began to tremble, like a mild earthquake.
Liu Lanyan was not worried about her situation. Instead, she looked up at the projection of the demon god and saw his body suddenly tremble and his brows furrow even more.
"Damn it!" Liu Lanyan cursed under her breath and ran forward as fast as she could. She needed to find the Demon God as soon as possible. There was no point in staying here and trying to cultivate.
"Want to leave? Not so easy!" The man stared at Liu Lanyan with icy eyes, as if he were looking at an inanimate object rather than a living being.
The arm swung in the air a few times, and the ground suddenly began to shake, just like waves on the sea, rising and falling, making it impossible for anyone to step on it.
"Idiot!" Liu Lanyan cursed under her breath, then leaped into the air.
Upon seeing Liu Lanyan leap into the air, a cruel smile crept onto the man's lips. He reached out and grabbed at the air, causing the faint mist to quickly gather, forming a cage that trapped Liu Lanyan inside.
"If you dare to enter here, none of you will leave alive." The man's voice was icy, filled with murderous intent.
At the same time, his fist clenched, and the projection of the demon god in the air began to shake violently.
The demon god seemed to have sensed that something was wrong, as waves of power were pressing down on him.
Seeing the demon god's increasingly pale face, Liu Lanyan felt as if her heart was being squeezed tightly by a giant hand.
It seemed as if some terrifying memory was resurfacing in her mind, a scene that resembled the same one, a scene that had broken her heart.
Liu Lanyan felt nothing of the mist that was trapping her and obliterating her, nor of the pain being inflicted upon her. All she knew was that her heart was clenching and clenching...
The pain intensified, making her head throb and her mind go blank...
I've already forgotten where she is.
Memories of her distant past life were churning within her, and combined with the current situation, she couldn't tell what was real and what was fake.
The feeling of terror kept building up, like a rising tide engulfing her.
It hurt so much, it hurt so much. Her heart felt like it was about to burst, turning into sharp fragments that fell and pierced her body, leaving her covered in blood.
"Die!" Liu Lanyan stared at the man with bloodshot eyes, roaring like a trapped beast.
Its momentum was overwhelming, like a river bursting its banks, churning up towering waves that crashed fiercely against the man.
The man was intimidated by Liu Lanyan's imposing aura, but having seen his share of big scenes, he immediately remembered something and slammed his clenched fist down heavily through the air.
It wasn't an attack on Liu Lanyan, but rather it caused a tremor in the area where the demon god was located.
Seeing the situation on the Demon God's side, Liu Lanyan exclaimed in surprise, calling out a familiar name etched into her soul: "Mo Yun—"
In the mountain valley, the demon god, who was sitting cross-legged on a large rock, suddenly opened his eyes. Who was calling his name?
So familiar... Lan Yan?
The demon god's eyes widened in surprise. Why was Lan Yan here?
Within that peculiar space, with Liu Lanyan's loud shout, the power that had been surging within her body suddenly erupted and rapidly spread throughout the entire space.
This caused a series of explosions.
Rumble—
The sounds were deafening.
The man was completely dumbfounded; he never imagined that someone could destroy this space.
The building was blown apart, the walls collapsed, and rubble flew everywhere.
The man was not in a hurry, because this space had the ability to repair itself. The clouds and mist spun rapidly, and as soon as the wall collapsed, the clouds and mist immediately blocked it and turned into a new wall.
However, less than two breaths later, the man was horrified to discover that the speed at which the clouds and mist could repair themselves was far slower than the speed at which they could destroy them.
The man had forgotten to take any action, even to try to save the space, and watched helplessly as it collapsed and shattered.
His mind went completely blank; he simply couldn't understand why anyone would have the ability to destroy a space.
In the same mountain hollow, the demon god Mo Yun stood up and realized that the faint glow that had been in the hollow had disappeared, and now he could see the entire hollow at a glance.
The sound I just heard was definitely not an illusion. Where is Lan Yan?
Thinking of this, Mo Yun reached out and quickly struck out several palm prints in front of him. As the palm prints were struck, the void in the mountain valley trembled.
A small crack appeared in front of Mo Yun, and thick clouds seeped out along the crack.
Without a second thought, Mo Yun grabbed the edge of the spatial rift with both hands, pulled hard, and jumped in.
Once inside, the crack behind him immediately disappeared, and Mo Yun remained frozen in place.
The scene was one of devastation.
Ruins everywhere.
There was nothing there to tell what this space used to look like. What was floating in the air was not just clouds and mist, but also countless dust particles mixed in with them.
Looking up, he saw the man floating in mid-air, but Mo Yun didn't pay much attention to him. Instead, the person next to him attracted his attention more.
She stood in mid-air, her clothes fluttering, her feet stepping on a ball of shimmering white light—not a cloud, nor mist, but a ball of power.
His black hair flew wildly, and he was in a state of frenzy. A violent power filled the space. Even Mo Yun felt his breath was suffocated by such power, and it felt as if a huge stone was pressing on his heart, extremely heavy.
how so?
Mo Yun had absolutely no idea what was going on.
"Touch him, or you'll die!" Liu Lanyan's lips slowly curled into a smile, her red lips slightly raised, like a demon from the underworld, carrying a bloodthirsty murderous aura.
As soon as these words were spoken, the power that filled this space suddenly began to spin rapidly, and the rubble and ruins on the ground were quickly pulverized.
She had never been so angry before. When she saw the man about to deal with Mo Yun, the last thread of reason in Liu Lanyan's mind snapped.
She didn't want to think about anything, didn't care about anything, and only wanted to kill the man in front of her.
Anyone who dares to touch him or mess with him will die!
The violent power roared and surged, making the man feel the oppressive weight of death.
This power...
The man's pupils contracted in terror; for the first time, he felt death so close.
Liu Lanyan saw all of the man's reactions. Her smile deepened and grew colder. She wanted to make a move against Mo Yun...
Die!
