Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief, a slight smile appearing on his face. That last strike had consumed a significant amount of his magical power; if another Blood Demon had appeared, Li Yang estimated he wouldn't have been a match. Although he now wielded the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Blade with the utmost skill, the sheer amount of magical power it consumed was enough to send shivers down one's spine!
Fortunately, the demons have been eliminated, and peace has been restored to the world.
"Li Yang, watch out—" Ye Ziyan suddenly exclaimed, her face filled with disbelief. At the same moment she cried out, Li Yang also sensed a powerful threat approaching in an instant.
"Not good! Where did such a powerful enemy come from?" Li Yang cried out inwardly, simultaneously channeling all his internal energy to dodge the sudden attack. It couldn't have come at the right time; just as Li Yang had achieved a great victory, his energy was greatly depleted, and his mind was extremely relaxed, the attack struck unexpectedly. Sure enough, it caught Li Yang completely off guard, leaving him only able to dodge in a sorry state.
He barely managed to activate his golden blood wings to dodge, but he couldn't completely avoid it. Then, a loud whipping sound echoed in the air, and Li Yang felt a sudden numbness in half of his body, losing consciousness. One of his wings also lost sensation, and he instantly lost his support, plummeting from a height of ten thousand meters.
Suddenly, a figure appeared high in the sky, his expression vicious and ferocious, staring at the falling Li Yang with an extremely sinister look. He smiled sinisterly and said, "Li Yang, today is your death day~" In his hand, he held an extremely mysterious short whip, which was flashing with a grand and astonishing pressure.
"Could it be the God-Slaying Whip of Kunlun?" Ye Ziyan exclaimed in surprise.
Meanwhile, in the distance, with the Blood Demon dead, the Void Profound Sun Flying Flower Palace's Qingmei and others, who had lost their lives and could finally stand up and breathe a sigh of relief, scrambled to their feet. They stared up at the sky in bewilderment, wondering who this person who had suddenly appeared was.
"The Dragon Group Leader?" Wang Gui exclaimed in surprise. She knew that Fei Ling and Fei Hua were still alive. But she never expected that Li Yang had just killed the Blood Demon, a huge achievement that was enough to erase all the wrongdoings he had done before. Wang Gui had long since stopped blaming Li Yang and was even willing to offer her own body to him for the sake of the common people.
"Brother? He actually had the God-Slaying Whip? He ambushed Li Yang? How could he do this? How could he do this?" Fei Hua cried out in disbelief.
"Where is Master? Where is Martial Uncle?" Fei Hua's expression suddenly changed, as if she had a bad premonition.
"Li Yang—" Gao Qingmei also saw Li Yang falling from the sky, and immediately cried out in alarm and ran away.
The flying feather in the air was extremely proud, and it laughed hysterically, looking up at the sky: "This world belongs to me, my strength is the greatest, I am the final king—"
"Li Yang! Today is your death day—"
"Behold the whip—" Fei Ling roared as he descended from the sky, wielding the whip with terrifying magical power, heading straight for Li Yang. Li Yang landed as if he had suffered a massive injury, lying on the ground, only half his body trembling. He was completely unable to get up. The power of the God-Slaying Whip was evident. Fei Ling immediately believed it, after all, he had never seen or used the God-Slaying Whip before, and it had always been considered a divine weapon, the treasure of Kunlun. Seeing its power just now, his confidence soared, completely convinced that it was the power of the God-Slaying Whip. Li Yang was utterly vulnerable. Ignoring the fact that his attack had consumed almost half of his magical power, and that if this attack didn't kill Li Yang, he might temporarily lose all his magical power, taking several days to recover. He might even die. But he couldn't care less about that now; what he wanted most now was for Li Yang to die!
"Die—" Another whip descended from the sky, covering an area of a thousand meters. Before the whip even landed, all the trees, rocks, and flowers within a thousand meters radius were reduced to dust. Just as the whip was about to strike Li Yang, an astonishing beam of blood-red light shot out, incredibly powerful and lightning-fast, arriving first despite being slower, and colliding solidly with the God-Slaying Whip.
Just then, something unexpected happened. The renowned and miraculous God-Slaying Whip, hailed as a wonder of the cultivation world, broke in two. It was easily severed by the Heavenly Net Blood-Transforming Divine Blade. Its powerful magic instantly crumbled, and the blood-red blade light paused only briefly before hurtling straight into the sky like a whirlwind.
"Ah—" Fei Ling screamed in agony as she was cleaved in two by the blade, blood splattering and emitting a faint fragrance—the magical aura of the Seven-Colored Lotus. Li Yang also flapped his wings, and with a single movement, he was in the air.
"Hmph~ Kid, you're still too green to play with me. Although that whip grazed my body just now, I'm now indestructible. That scratch can't hurt me at all. I was just pretending to lure you into being careless." Li Yang looked coldly at Fei Ling, who was beyond dead, and said disdainfully.
"Li Yang, have mercy—" Fei Hua cried out as she rushed over. But it was too late. Fei Ling was already dead.
"Brother...you, how could you be so...you know? You probably don't know, this God-Slaying Whip is just a fake, a counterfeit deliberately made by the Ancestral Master and left in the mortal realm. The real divine weapon is too powerful to remain in the mortal realm. Master didn't tell you, but he told me. Did you disobey Master's wishes and steal the God-Slaying Whip yourself? It seems you must have done something bad, otherwise Master would have told you that this God-Slaying Whip is a fake, and it can't be compared to the real one at all~ My silly brother, you have disappointed me so much!" Fei Hua knelt on the ground, crying like a pear blossom in the rain.
"I suspect your brother has done something terribly rebellious. He carries your master's resentment, which you can't sense, but I can. Moreover, it's an extremely vicious technique, a curse cast by consuming soul power. Your master and uncle may have already fallen victim to his evil deeds." Li Yang obtained this information through his mind-reading technique, but he couldn't say it like that; he had to find a reason to reveal the truth!
"What? Fei Ling—you! I hate you! You, you deserve to die—" Fei Hua immediately stood up and pointed at Fei Ling's corpse, accusing him.
"Li Yang, you scared me to death!" Gao Qingmei sobbed and threw herself into Li Yang's arms. Li Yang chuckled, affectionately stroking her long hair to comfort her.
Thus ended a cataclysmic event. The righteous path emerged victorious. Fei Hua returned to Kunlun, inheriting the position of Kunlun Sect Leader, vowing to restore Kunlun's prestige. The other sects also acknowledged Li Yang as their Supreme Elder, granting him the authority to decide any matters concerning their respective sects. In essence, he was the supreme leader of each sect. In other words, he was the number one figure in the cultivation world, a true king.
In Jiangdong City, the Bagua Sect reigned supreme. Li Yang's master, Lu Chen, also received guidance from Li Yang and began cultivating. Dark Card God and Shura, among others, followed their master Lu Chen in cultivation. As for Ye Gucheng, the former number one martial artist, he attempted a sneak attack on Jiangdong City before the Blood Demon was even born, but was quickly killed by the combined efforts of the Hu Meiniang sisters. Facing Hu Meiniang, who had been trained by Li Yang, his strength was utterly insignificant. Li Yang accepted Ye Ziyan's invitation to become a guardian deity of the Yaochi Immortal Palace. When the time was right, he would enter the Yaochi Immortal Palace to cultivate with Ye Ziyan, researching the highest realm of the *Su Nu Jing* (Classic of the Plain Girl). The rest of the time, he enjoyed a leisurely and blissful ordinary life in Jiangdong City, indulging in the pleasures of multiple wives. No one dared to provoke him anymore. He quickly became the leading family in Jiangdong City—the Jiangdong Li Family—gradually gaining national fame. Countless versions of legends and tales about Li Yang emerged, inspiring countless generations to worship and yearn for him!
