Chapter 487: Nangong Mili: This bastard is finally here!
Ghost Devil True Person and Zhentian True Man were somewhat surprised to see Nangong Mili, wondering how she had arrived here.
Her sudden appearance was clearly not a coincidence.
“Oh, isn’t this Immortal Master Tianzhu? Immortal Master, what brings you here?”
Zhentian Old Devil licked his lips, his bronze-ringed leopard eyes revealing a hint of fiery desire as he gazed at Nangong Mili’s captivating, world-shaking beauty and her breathtakingly graceful curves.
Nangong Mili looked at Lu Quanzhen in Zhentian True Man’s hand, frowned, recognized him as Lu Quanzhen, and said coldly, her Phoenix eyes chilling, “Zhentian True Man, this person has some connection to me. Name your price; I want him.”
“Hm!?”
Zhentian True Man was astonished.
He hadn’t expected Nangong Mili to come for Lu Quanzhen.
“This kid not only subdued an exotic strange insect like the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm, but he also escaped from Old Ghost Li’s hands, clearly indicating he’s not simple and possesses a great Opportunity and a great secret.”
“Now that Nangong Mili, this woman, has also come for this kid, it further proves he’s unusual, possibly harboring an unknown Opportunity.”
Zhentian True Man mused inwardly, realizing that Lu Quanzhen was far from simple.
His ringed eyes brazenly scrutinized Nangong Mili before him, then he burst into coarse laughter, saying, “Hahaha, Immortal Master wants this kid? You can have him.”
“As long as you help me slaughter Old Ghost Li, I’ll give you this kid, how about it?”
Since he knew Lu Quanzhen held a great Opportunity and secret, he naturally wouldn’t hand him over easily.
“Zhentian Old Devil, I’ll screw your mother!”
Ghost Devil True Person immediately burst into curses.
Then he turned to Nangong Mili and said, “Immortal Master Tianzhu, as long as you help me suppress this Old Devil, just name any request you have. This Old Man will owe you a great favor!”
“This Immortal Master doesn’t wish to interfere in your affairs. I only want this person.”
Nangong Mili, in her noble purple gown, was tall and exquisitely beautiful, exuding a cold, domineering Aura of imposing authority.
She had come this time to confirm whether Lu Quanzhen was in Ghost Devil True Person’s hands.
She hadn’t expected Lu Quanzhen not to be in Ghost Devil True Person’s hands, but rather in Zhentian Old Devil’s.
Compared to Ghost Devil True Person, this Zhentian Old Devil was much more troublesome.
As a Loose Cultivator, unburdened by ties, and possessing Middle Stage Body Refining, he usually acted domineeringly and without scruples, making him very difficult to deal with.
“Tsk, you don’t want to interfere? That makes things a bit difficult.”
Zhentian Old Devil scrutinized Nangong Mili’s alluring figure, then suddenly grinned and laughed, “I heard that in earlier years, Xiang Xionghan was deeply in love with you, serving you hand and foot, even self-destructing his Core Formation for you. How pathetic and ridiculous.”
“This Immortal Master has also long heard of your good name and wishes to witness your splendor. As long as Immortal Master is willing to accompany this Immortal Master for a few days, this kid is yours, how about it?”
“You’re seeking death!”
Nangong Mili’s Phoenix eyes were filled with Killing Intent, sharp and cold.
If it were anyone else who dared to look at her so brazenly and with such aggressive eyes, she would have long since gouged out their eyes and chopped them up to feed to dogs.
It was only out of consideration for Zhentian Old Devil’s strength, and her reluctance to engage in conflict with him, that she suppressed the anger in her heart.
Now that he had spoken such teasing words, it meant there was no need to continue talking!
“Woo woo woo–”
Nangong Mili’s fair, delicate hand gently lifted, and a crystal-clear, flowing purple jade flute appeared in her hand. She placed it by her red lips, and a captivating flute melody slowly resounded.
“Hiss hiss hiss–”
A purple Sky Spider illusion, dozens of feet large, appeared and charged towards Zhentian True Man.
However, Nangong Mili also knew that it was impossible for her to suppress Zhentian True Man, so she instantly crushed Lu Changsheng’s sensing jade talisman.
Under normal circumstances, she definitely wouldn’t ask Lu Changsheng for help.
But this was him saving his son; what did it have to do with her?
“Heh heh, this little girl is really something. This Old Man just loves women like this!”
Zhentian Old Devil roared with laughter, his iron-tower-like body’s muscles bulging and rumbling, like a Vicious Beast roaring and howling.
Above his head, a dark golden, ferocious iron tower appeared, erupting with powerful Aura, and struck horizontally towards the purple Sky Spider.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh–”
The purple Sky Spider roared, and countless purple threads intertwined across the heavens and earth, forming a net of heaven and earth.
Immediately after, countless snakes and insects appeared, carrying a vast torrent of poisonous Qi that surged towards Zhentian Old Devil.
“Buzz buzz buzz–”
Zhentian Old Devil’s imposing figure, his dark golden iron tower vibrating, was like a volcanic eruption, with Rolling black Qi spreading, surging powerfully.
At this moment, he noticed several invisible spider threads attempting to snatch Lu Quanzhen from his hand.
He immediately threw his large hand, suppressing Lu Quanzhen, who was pale with a grimace of pain, into his Magic Treasure to prevent Nangong Mili from taking him.
“Pfft!”
Lu Quanzhen, already severely injured, spewed out another mouthful of fresh blood under the might of this Spiritual Pressure, almost fainting.
But his resilient and tenacious vitality persisted; he gritted his teeth tightly, wondering if there was any way for him to survive.
However, in the current situation, he truly couldn’t think of any means to escape.
The only way was to do his best to survive in the hands of this Zhentian Old Devil and wait for an Opportunity.
“I can’t die yet. My life has just begun. I still want to witness the rise of my Family. I still have an agreement with my uncle. I want to Breakthrough Core Formation, and even Breakthrough Nascent Soul.”
Lu Quanzhen’s eyes were bloodshot, his face terrifyingly grim, and his consciousness was somewhat blurry.
“Go!”
At this moment, Ghost Devil True Person saw Nangong Mili fighting Zhentian True Man, and immediately transformed into a faint, indistinct ghostly blood shadow and departed.
He was currently injured, and even if he joined forces with Nangong Mili, at most they could repel Zhentian Old Devil.
But Nangong Mili, this woman, was no pushover. If they repelled Zhentian Old Devil and she truly demanded rewards and benefits from him, he would have to pay a heavy price.
“Hm!?”
Zhentian True Man saw Ghost Devil True Person trying to escape and immediately shouted at Nangong Mili, “Stupid woman, get lost!”
Although he was interested in Nangong Mili, he knew his own strength, and it was impossible to capture her.
Instead of fighting her to the death, it was better to continue troubling Ghost Devil True Person.
Nangong Mili’s Phoenix eyes were cold, and she did not obstruct him, merely pursuing from behind, thinking of taking the Opportunity to snatch Lu Quanzhen.
She looked at the Zhentian Old Devil before her and suddenly said coldly, “Zhentian Old Devil, do you know this child’s identity!”
She saw that Lu Quanzhen’s current situation was not good, and it would be difficult for her to snatch him, so she intended to stall for time, waiting for Lu Changsheng to arrive.
“Hmph, what identity matters to this Old Man? Do you really think this Old Man was scared into growing up, or something!”
Zhentian Old Devil said with a defiant expression.
If Lu Quanzhen had any identity or background, could he have been hunted by Ghost Devil True Person for so long and reduced to this half-crippled state?
So he directly took Nangong Mili’s words as her trying to trick him.
Just like that, the three began to clash and entangle.
At the same time.
A Golden Peng Bird, entirely brilliant and dazzling, emitting ten thousand rays of golden light and a soaring Demonic Qi, was constantly tearing through the Void Realm, stirring up gusts of hurricanes, and flying towards Nangong Mili’s direction.
“Faster!”
Lu Changsheng, in a dark Xuan-colored brocade robe, stood firm and imposing on the Golden Winged Roc, his face grave.
The moment Lu Quanzhen used the Substitute Talisman, he vaguely sensed his son’s general direction.
He had just left Ancient You Immortal City, preparing to search for him, when he received a message from Nangong Mili, immediately realizing that Lu Quanzhen’s situation was extremely dangerous.
“Caw!”
The Golden Winged Roc let out a sharp cry, stirring up fierce hurricanes.
Its body, as if cast from gold, was dazzlingly bright, its wings like two golden heavenly blades, exuding peerless sharpness. As they stretched in the air, they tore through the Void Realm with ‘chi la, chi la’ sounds. When it passed a mountain Peak that soared into the clouds, it directly sliced the mountain Peak in half with a roar.
At this moment, the Golden Winged Roc’s speed had surpassed Late Stage Core Formation, almost comparable to the escape speed of a Nascent Soul True Lord.
If Lu Changsheng hadn’t possessed Third-tier Body Refining, the powerful Qi generated by such speed would have ripped his Physical Body apart, leaving no bones.
Black Fiend Valley.
“Stupid woman, if you keep pestering this Old Man, this Old Man will screw you to death!”
Zhentian Old Devil’s figure was immensely tall, like an iron tower-like mountain, full of oppressive force.
He originally had the upper hand against Ghost Devil True Person.
But now, Nangong Mili, this woman, kept interfering and affecting him, constantly trying to snatch Lu Quanzhen, causing him to become increasingly irritated, with a surge of violent emotions in his heart.
“Hm? Where did he go!”
A moment later, Zhentian Old Devil saw Ghost Devil True Person’s Aura disappear, not knowing where he had hidden. His face immediately turned grim and terrifying as he looked at Nangong Mili: “It’s all your fault, you cheap slut. Since you like clinging to this Old Man so much, this Old Man will fulfill your wish!”
As he spoke, his body made ‘qiang qiang qiang’ sounds, like an iron tower vibrating, and he charged towards Nangong Mili, his eyes filled with Killing Intent.
Although the Demonic Technique he Cultivated was powerful and domineering, it had a flaw: it affected his own emotions.
He originally didn’t want to get too entangled with Nangong Mili.
But at this moment, consumed by rage, a violent emotion of fighting heaven and earth surged in his heart, and he only wanted to vent fiercely.
This was also the reason he often ambushed Ghost Devil True Person.
Because long-term Cultivation would lead to the accumulation of many negative emotions.
And when he acted against Ghost Devil True Person, beating him until he scurried away, he felt extremely exhilarated and could expel the negative emotions in his heart!
Otherwise, no matter how vengeful he was, it would be impossible for him to spend so much time and energy ambushing Ghost Devil True Person.
“Bang!”
Nangong Mili gently lifted her fair hand, conjuring a smooth, delicate, and translucent invisible spider web.
Zhentian Old Devil’s terrifying, irresistible power struck this spider web, and immediately a large portion of it was deflected, making it difficult for him to advance even half an inch, and he felt a stream of poison flowing into his skin.
But the next moment, his fist erupted with boundless, powerful Aura, as if burning with a blazing Demonic Flame, causing the spider web to sizzle like boiling water, and its luster dimmed considerably.
“Woo woo woo–”
Nangong Mili continued to play her jade flute, and the purple Heavenly Spider phantom appeared, spewing out a Heavenly Net, as countless venomous insects charged towards Zhentian Old Devil.
However, facing Zhentian Old Devil’s tyrannical Physical Body, she could only continuously retreat.
Like her daughter, Nangong Yaoyao, she was not skilled in direct offensive combat.
Moreover, during the battle at Nine Heavens Immortal City, her Natal Heavenly Spider was killed by Cloud Sword Peak, which severely damaged her strength, and she had not yet recovered.
Otherwise, facing a Body Cultivator like Zhentian Old Devil, she could have easily let the Heavenly Spider entangle him upfront while she attacked with other means.
Not to mention suppressing Zhentian Old Devil, she would have at least a fifty to sixty percent chance of victory!
“Damn it, how much longer until that dog of a man arrives!”
Nangong Mili’s face was as cold as frost, and she cursed in her heart.
If this continued, her Magic Treasure would be ruined.
And if she were to leave in such a sorry state today, it was likely that other forces would soon learn of her severely weakened combat power.
“Bitch, what are you waiting for?”
Although Zhentian Old Devil was furious and in a violent mood, he still retained some rationality.
Seeing Nangong Mili not engaging him directly, constantly retreating but not fleeing, as if trying to buy time, he sensed that something was amiss.
“Hmph, I’ll naturally make you speak!”
Zhentian Old Devil’s voice was deep and hoarse, like Rolling thunder, and his muscular black giant fist obscured the sky, descending simultaneously with a dark golden iron pagoda, suppressing Nangong Mili.
Nangong Mili’s Phoenix eyes were filled with Killing Intent, extremely cold, as she formed hand seals, an invisible spider web like a celestial curtain appeared, and the purple Heavenly Spider continuously solidified, spitting out crystalline silk threads.
Then, she conjured a hairpin resembling a purple jade butterfly and sent it flying towards Zhentian Old Devil.
“Boom, boom, boom—”
The black iron fist and the dark gold iron pagoda brutally suppressed the spider web, which was like a celestial curtain, and the purple Heavenly Spider, which had just solidified, causing them to continuously shatter and dim.
However, at this moment, he seemed to see a dreamlike butterfly, and his mind wavered slightly. His protective spiritual light was pierced by the purple jade butterfly hairpin, and a drop of crimson blood flowed from his glabella.
“You bitch, how dare you hurt me!”
Zhentian Old Devil instantly sobered up, roared with wide eyes, and his murderous Aura exploded. His mountain-like Physical Body surged with raging Demonic Flames, and his Aura was overwhelming, sweeping across a large portion of the sky.
Just now, in his carelessness, he felt a hint of death, and he couldn’t help but be enraged and furious.
“Boom, boom, boom—”
The dormant Qi and magical power within his body erupted at this moment, causing his body, which was already ten feet tall, to grow even taller. Every movement seemed to cause space to explode, filled with a tragic and murderous Qi.
“Bitch, die for me!!!”
The giant man roared to the sky, boundless violent ferocity filling his brain and dominating his thoughts, as he blasted towards Nangong Mili.
“Bang, bang, bang—”
Under Zhentian Old Devil’s fierce offensive, the powerful and ethereal purple Heavenly Spider continuously retreated, then dissipated like sand, causing Nangong Mili to let out a muffled groan, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
“Damn it!”
Nangong Mili’s face was somewhat pale, her Phoenix eyes were extremely cold, and she felt incredibly frustrated and angry.
If her Natal Heavenly Spider were still here, why would she be in such a state!
And that dog of a man still hadn’t arrived!
“Bitch, I’m going to kill you!”
Zhentian Immortal Master’s massive body burned with a layer of raging Demonic Flames, and a crazed, violent, and chilling Killing Intent surged like a tide towards Nangong Mili.
“Whoosh—”
Nangong Mili saw that Zhentian Old Devil’s current state was not right, so she immediately turned and left, temporarily avoiding his sharp edge.
“Bitch, where are you going!”
Zhentian Old Devil, like a Purgatory Demonic God, tore through the Void Realm, stirring up Rolling, Dragon-like violent Qi, and arrived before Nangong Mili.
“Bang, bang, bang—”
The sky-obscuring black giant fist shattered layers of the Void Realm.
The dark gold iron pagoda, like a small mountain, suppressed from the sky, exuding endless oppressive Aura.
“Whoosh—”
Although Nangong Mili dodged, her Qi and magical power still surged, and she let out a muffled groan.
“Boom, boom, boom—”
Zhentian Old Devil continued his attacks. Visible force gathered towards his fists, surging and violent. Each punch seemed to have endless Vicious Beasts roaring, forcing Nangong Mili to continuously retreat and spit out blood.
If it weren’t for Lu Quanzhen being in Zhentian Old Devil’s hands, Nangong Mili would have already escaped.
After all, she could also see that Lu Quanzhen’s situation was very bad.
If she were to escape, and Zhentian Old Devil disappeared afterward, it would be difficult to find him and Lu Quanzhen again.
“If that dog of a man still doesn’t come, then you can’t blame me.”
Nangong Mili’s beautiful eyes gleamed with a chilling light.
For her daughter, she was willing to help.
But there was no way she would sacrifice herself!
“Boom, boom, boom—”
The two continuously clashed.
At this moment, Nangong Mili was no match for Zhentian Immortal Master. Her face was extremely pale, and she was already preparing to leave.
Otherwise, if she continued to delay, she herself would be in danger.
“Hmm?”
Just then, both of them sensed a surging and astonishing Demonic Qi Rolling towards their direction.
“Demonic Qi!?”
The two were somewhat puzzled, not knowing why such overwhelming Demonic Qi would appear here.
“Could it be that dog of a man has arrived?”
Nangong Mili’s expression was surprised and doubtful.
She had heard from her daughter before that Lu Changsheng had a third-rank Peng bird, and she suspected that the Golden Peng Bird she saw on the border of Jiang Country was Lu Changsheng’s mount.
A few breaths later, she saw a golden rainbow-like streak flying over, moving with lightning speed and a formidable Aura.
“That dog of a man is finally here!”
Although the Golden Winged Roc’s speed was astonishing, as a Core Formation Immortal Master, she could still barely make out the figure in the black robe on its back.
Even though she had already guessed, seeing this familiar Golden Winged Roc, Nangong Mili was still incredibly surprised.
After all, to be able to use such a Demonic King as a means of transport, one must at least be a Peak Core Formation Cultivator, right?
But Lu Changsheng had only recently broken through to Core Formation.
Thinking of Lu Changsheng’s various circumstances, Nangong Mili did not measure him by common sense at this moment. A feeling of relief and joy, as well as an unprecedented sense of security, welled up in her heart.
“Hmm!?”
Zhentian Old Devil, whose mind was filled with violent Qi, also sobered up a bit under this overwhelming Demonic Qi, and rationality gained the upper hand.
Seeing Nangong Mili’s expression, he immediately realized that something was amiss.
“Go!”
He did not hesitate, making a decisive decision to escape.
After all, the Spiritual Pressure and power emanating from such vast Demonic Qi had already reached the Late Stage of the third rank.
If they were to fight, he would be no match at all.
“Yin Yang One Qi Great Capturing Hand!”
An indifferent voice sounded.
Only to see the sky churning, a hundred-zhang giant handprint, interwoven with Yin and Yang, appeared and rolled down.
“Not good!”
Zhentian Old Devil, as a Loose Cultivator, had been able to run rampant for so long, so he was naturally extraordinary.
His muscles rippled, as if composed of stacked mountain ranges, and boundless power permeated, directly breaking through the restraint and suppression of the Yin Yang One Qi Great Capturing Hand.
“Golden Peng!”
Lu Changsheng’s eyes gleamed, reflecting two golden beams of light. He directly rode the Golden Winged Roc and crashed towards Zhentian Old Devil.
“Pfft—”
Zhentian Old Devil’s third-rank Physical Body, which he was so proud of, was instantly torn open by the Golden Winged Roc’s wing, leaving a deep bloody mark, and blood splattered across the sky.
“This…”
Even though Nangong Mili knew that the power of such a Demonic King was terrifying, she was still incredibly shocked to see this scene.
With such a Demonic King, Lu Changsheng might even be able to fight against a Late Stage Great Cultivator!
Even with his methods, it was possible that a Late Stage Cultivator would be no match for him.
“Ah, Your Excellency, who are you? How have I offended you!”
Although Zhentian Old Devil guessed that Lu Changsheng was with Nangong Mili and was the person she was waiting for, he was still full of confusion.
He didn’t know where such an existence had appeared in Jin Country.
“Caw!”
Lu Changsheng did not speak, his expression indifferent as he stood on the Golden Winged Roc.
The Sky Peng let out a cry, its Demonic Qi soaring into the sky, Killing Intent permeating the surroundings. Its voice pierced through metal and stone, and countless dazzling golden divine feathers arranged themselves across the sky, brutally striking towards Zhentian Immortal Master. The Killing Intent soared to the heavens, astonishing the world.
Zhentian Old Devil’s heart turned cold, and he wanted to beg for mercy, but the golden feathers instantly reached him. Each one was like a heavenly blade or divine sword, piercing through his powerful Physical Body, and blood splattered.
At the same time, the Yin Yang One Qi Great Capturing Hand descended like a majestic divine mountain, suppressing and restraining Zhentian Old Devil, who was covered in blood. His whole body’s bones crackled, and he let out a shrill, painful cry.
Nangong Mili, who was beside him, looked at this scene, her entire expression somewhat dazed.
The tyrannical Zhentian Old Devil from the previous moment was suppressed in an instant, bleeding into the sky, unable to even escape. It was simply horrifying!
“Mili, are you alright?”
Lu Changsheng immediately saw that Nangong Mili’s magical power was in disarray and that she had suffered no small injuries, so he asked with gentle concern.
“He’s yours to deal with.”
Lu Changsheng directly threw Zhentian Old Devil to Nangong Mili.
Then, with a sweep of his large hand, Lu Quanzhen, pale-faced and in agony, appeared before him from within the dark gold iron pagoda.
“Quanzhen.”
Lu Changsheng looked at Lu Quanzhen before him, his expression solemn.
“Father…”
Lu Quanzhen’s consciousness was gradually blurring at this moment.
But upon hearing the familiar words and seeing the familiar black brocade robe before him, he immediately recognized that the elegant man before him was his father.
Although he didn’t know why his father appeared here, upon seeing Lu Changsheng, his tense body and mind relaxed a bit, and he directly fainted.
