Chapter 393: Heaven Devouring Demon King Xiao Mohe


    Outside the central region, Mi Fu and Jiang Yuezhuo were searching Connecting Valley for remaining treasures and True Works. In the past, Connecting Valley drew in many Star Generals. Many frence calligraphy Star Generals were fond of leaving behind True Works, and the two of them continued to find many.


    "Connecting Valley''s Primeval Chaos True Qi has all entered the central region. Seems like there''s been a change in the situation inside. Don''t tell me they actually found Li Si''s personal writing?" Mi Ji was a bit tempted to go in.


    Jiang Kui promptly dismissed her fanciful thinking. If Li Si''s Five Emperors Seal actually appeared, that situation definitely would be even more dangerous. Life and death could change in an instant. For Star Generals like them who did not have Heavenly Star strength, other than slightly bolstering the power of others, they werepletely useless.


    Mi Fu was also aware of this point, but with respect to Li Si''s legendary Great Seal, her heart was particrly curious.


    "Is your Junior Brother Chen Mo really alright?" Mi Fu asked.


    Jiang Yuezhuo nodded although she was not truly as at ease as she said.


    Following the increase in activity of the Connecting Valley''s central region, the entire valley shook intensely. A tremendous Star Energy exploded underground. "Unknown Literati" Mi Ji was less and less able to resist the urge to investigate.


    Many cultivators already turned into escape lights and hurried towards the central region.


    "We can''t just hide outside like this, we are but Star Generals." Mi Ji clenched her fists tightly. "Even if I die, I also want to personally behold Li Si''s True Work."


    "Little Sister."


    "Sister Yuezhuo, are we just going to let a man be the vanguard for us?" Mi Ji disdainfully said.


    Jiang Yuezhuo was taken aback.


    All of a sudden, a mocking voice spoke up.


    "No need to be so confused, just let me make the decision for you."


    The two girls were startled, raising their Star Weapons and their guards.


    A shadow flit by like the wind. Before the Fire Wolf Brush in Mi Ji''s hand could draw, she felt pain in her arm. A ray of killing intent already pierced through her arm. Mi Ji faced danger unfazed, wielding the Water Carp Inkstone in her left hand.


    Ink sshed out of the inkstone.


    Jiang Kui immediately moved her Star Weapon; hers was a square-shaped scroll. The cover had blossoming golden lotuses, and its name was "Damask Dragon Calligraphy Book."¹ The scroll flipped, and a Yellow Rank "Green Emergence"² attacked.


    Green light flew out from the book, bing a screen that blocked the assant''s sneak attack.


    The enemy thrust hernce, breaking the Yellow Rank. She sneered: "Jiang Kui, Mi Fu. Two cheeky Star Generals dare to y tricks in front of This General."


    The attacker was a woman dressed in golden armor and clothes. She wore a cap on her head, and thence in her hand was strange; its tip was helical.


    "Who are you?" Mi Fu did not recognize her.


    "It''s you." Jiang Kui recognized her, though. "Shen Guang." She was none other than the female general they encountered a little while ago in the Da Ye Star Field, the one waving her spear next to Yang Su. Her power was considerable, already at Heavenly Spirit Three Cmities Realm, and as the Sui Ye Star Kingdom''s martial general, Jiang Kui and Mi Fu were basically no match for her in terms of martial prowess.


    The woman disdainfully said: "Your Servant is ‘Corporeal Flying Immortal''³ Shen Guang, here today specifically to take your lives."


    "But we have neither grievance nor enmity." Mi Fu wanted to say.


    Shen Guang sneered, and her figure vanished. Mi Fu again used Dark Rank Water Vapor Burning Scatterer, but Shen Guang''s speed was too fast. A multitude of afterimages surprisingly appeared in the girls'' eyes.


    Although Shen Guang was not one of the Sui Ye Star Kingdom''s Nine Elders Of Sui, she was the strongest contender. Her Innate Skill "Qinggong" enhanced her speed and body techniques to iparable levels, as if she bounded to Heaven in a single step. Even on the Sui Ye Star Kingdom''s Twelve Deva Stairway, Shen Guang''s ascent speed was considered superior to even some of the Nine Elders. Thus, she gained the nickname Corporeal Flying Immortal.


    Shen Guang''s Yellow Rank attacked Mi Fu first.


    Mi Fu blocked with a Profound Star Barrier.


    While the light ring stopped Shen Guang''s murderous intent, Mi Fu raised a dozen Middle Grade Talismans. A hundred fireballs blew out from them and hurtled towards Shen Guang.


    The woman nimbly dodged, inconceivably evading all of the fireball attacks.


    This speed stupefied Mi Fu.


    Jiang Kui promptly pointed her slender finger. A yellow talisman was brought out. This was an "Ancient Distressed Beast Talisman." A Primeval Chaos Fierce Beast, "Earth Distressed," emerged from the talisman, obstructing Shen Guang''s attack.


    "Let''s hurry and go."


    Jiang Kui tugged on Mi Fu and wanted to escape.


    Shen Guang killed the "Earth Distressed" with a Dark Rank, instantly running in front of the two girls. She smiled malevolently: "Thinking of running?"


    All of a sudden, the sky was as bright as fire. A Crimson Star fell from the sky, descending into the depths of Connecting Valley.


    "Starfall??"


    The girls were all startled.


    "Earth Rank: Landscape In The Eye." Mi Fu seized the chance to use her Earth Rank, painting a portrait of the Connecting Valley in a sh. Then, the two girls stepped into the picture. By the time Shen Guang thought to kill them, they had already disappeared without a trace.


    Shen Guang cursed, a bit regretful her prey escaped. "Starfall…The inside is so dangerous, can it be they truly found the Five Emperors Seal?" Shen Guang thought quickly. If she was able to obtain the Five Emperors Seal, she would have a spot among the Nine Elders Of Sui''s Four Heavenly Kings.


    As she thought this, she suddenly saw several dozen escape lights hurry towards the center. Shen Guang saw they were the Lü n Spring And Autumn''s disciples. Seeing their panicked expressions, apparently there was something anomalous inside.


    Shen Guang searched around then somersaulted. An afterimage flit by, and she disappeared into thin air.


    …


    At this moment, Connecting Valley underground pce.


    Xiao Mohe killed the Wang n of Langya''s Great General Wang Dun, leaving everyone shaken. Wang Xianzhi no longer cared for Yu Ji. After activating the Orchid Pavilion Preface, she went to save Wang Dun.


    Xiao Mohe was expression less. Her entire body emitted ck qi like a demon, directing her second sh at Wang Yuanji. The Hunting Day Pavilion''s Star General would have no mercy to speak of whatsoever the moment she joined. So long as she epted a mission, then death was considered inevitable.


    Wang Yuanji apathetically faced the iing sword. The darts in her hand werepletely unable to stop the Ghosts And Gods ck te''s killing intent.


    "Hè."


    At the critical moment, Wang Xianzhi arrived. Her brushes caught the Ghosts And Gods ck te. The Little Schr Buried In Books'' Innate Skill was "One Brush Book." With a single stroke, countless calligraphy characters manifested, covering her entire body like armor and augmenting her Star Energy.


    But Xiao Mohe was a Star General who had experienced the cruelty of the struggle to be Star Marquis; her formidable strength was beyond imagination. Her second attack immediately made Wang Xianzhi feel pressure. The Dragon and Phoenix Brushes'' starlight broke along with the script on her body.


    "Elder Sister." Wang Yuanji once again used Purple Rain Sudden Downpour.


    Xiao Mohe pushed with her left hand, and a ck lightpletely struck down the shower of iign darts. The woman''s eyes glinted with a cold purple light. With a detached shout, she attacked with a Yellow Rank.


    Bang, bang, bang.


    The Ghosts And Gods Nirvana trapped the two women. The woman raised her sword to sh.


    Wang Xianzhi''splexion promptly paled, "Xiao Mohe, if you kill my Wang n''s people, the Wang n of Langya can never coexist under the same sky as you!"


    "Mohe has long been indifferent to life and death…" Xiao Mohe was neither happy nor sad. Her sword thrust forth.


    Wang Xianzhi was forced back continuously by her power. Countless sword-lights burst in her eyes. Wang Xianzhi''s Divine Intent moved, and the Orchid Pavilion Preface flew over, shielding in front of her.


    This treasure, the "Orchid Pavilion Preface," was known as the best semicursive script treasure under Heaven, and it once again unleashed might that blocked the sword-light.


    Chen Mo pulled Yu Ji and Yu Ziqi back and came face to face with Huang Tingjian''s oppression.


    "Huang Tingjian, do you want to kill them, too?"


    "Just what are you nning?" Huang Tingjian waspletely unable to fathom this man''s thinking. Was he charmed? She waspletely unconvinced. A Servant Star who possessed a contract would only serve their own Star General; killing another could bolster their own strength.


    This waspletely not the so-called beautiful enough to ruin a country.


    Not only was Huang Tingjian unable to understand, Yu Ji was also confused, but she felt that Chen Mo sincerely wanted to protect her.


    "I have a connection to Yu Ji and Yu Ziqi. I owe them a favor, so I can''t let them die." Chen Mo resolutely answered.


    "The ck Turtle…Don''t tell me…" Yu Ji was stunned.


    The two were in the middle of a deadlock; Wang Xianzhi and Xiao Mohe''s battle was increasingly intense. Little Sage Buried In Books was no match for the Heaven Devouring Demon King and was suppressed extremely wretchedly.


    Lü Meng and Lü Yu attacked the twelve White Horse Cavalry. Lü Meng smiled despite her fury: "How outstanding of you, Lady Wei, to actually be able to hire Xiao Mohe. I truly have underestimated you."


    "Xiao Mohe was defeated by Yang Guang back then. This Lady agreed that the Thousand Gold Pavilion would give her the strength for revenge. We each take what we need. Lü Meng, if you do not wish to die, then hurry and flee." Lady Wei was unfazed.


    "Rumeng,⁴ what do we do?" Lü Yu was somewhat flustered.


    When even the Wang n''s Wang Dun was dead, the situation was already approaching crisis.


    "Dammit." Lü Rumeng was unwilling to lose everything when the end was in sight, but the Heaven Devouring Demon King was honestly too strong. Back then, a great deal of the Sui Ye Star Kingdom''s Star General joined hands and were still unable to kill her. Now, after secluding herself at the Hunting Day Pavilion, her Realm was even stronger than back then.


    Her power perhaps was already at True Phoenix Seventh or Eighth Stage Realm.


    True Phoenix Seventh Stage was considered the threshold for a Star General''s strength. Those able to reach this threshold could be considered first-rate.


    "You go handle Lady Wei and the others. I will go help Wang Xianzhi."


    "Rumeng?" Lü Yu was surprised.


    "Wang Xianzhi must not die, otherwise, we will be buried here as well." Lü Rumeng turned around, and Lü Yu nodded. His Lord Of Heaven Realm had some chance against Lady Wei.


    "Chen Mo!" Lü Rumeng looked at the man protecting Yu Ji and her sister.


    "I am impressed that you can still be the hero who saves the beauty at the moment, but we need to go help Wang Xianzhi defeat Xiao Mohe right now. You should realize that, otherwise, you will not be able to save anyone." Lü Rumeng gravely stared at Chen Mo.


    She already discerned that this man''s strength absolutely had the capability to withstand a Heavenly Star. She was not sure whether or not this man was the Servant Star to that spiritual power Star General, to actually be so fierce.


    "Kill Xiao Mohe, and I swear upon my True Name, ‘Rumeng,'' that your safeties are guaranteed." Lü Rumeng said righteously.


    Chen Mo nced at Yu Ji.


    This nce made the Wife Of The Hegemon King''s heart jump fiercely, as if she was shocked. "I can still protect Elder Sister. As she says, everyone will die here unless we defeat Xiao Mohe."


    Chen Mo nodded. Huang Tingjian coldly snorted, retracting her hostility.


    A scream. Wang Yuanji''s Earth Rank "Heavenly Wolf Seven Stars Kill" was broken once again, and she was sent flying, losing consciousness from how heavily she wasunched.


    "Yuanji." Wang Xianzhi grit her teeth.


    Lü Rumeng brandished the Hero yer, flying into the fray.


    Chen Mo did not hesitate either. He lifted the Northern Dipper Staff, and Invincible''s power gushed forth unstoppable. Huang Tingjian was a magic energy Star General, and she immediately activated Star Magic.


    Xiao Mohe stepped back, ring coldly at the four of them like a demon king.


    "This Xiao Mohe is very formidable, you must be careful." Wang Xianzhi panted.


    "Of course. Heaven Devouring Demon King, you ought to be ranked fourth in the Hunting Day Pavilion?" Even on the Star Duels List, you may perhaps be able to ce in the top one hundred." Lü Meng took a deep breath. "If not for your heavy injuries from the Sui Ye Star Kingdom back then, your current strength perhaps would not be limited to this."


    "I never imagined that the stray dog who let her sovereign king be utterly destroyed was living sofortably. Now, you act as someone else''s attack dog." Wang Xianzhi sneered.


    In the face of these words that exposed her scars, the purple light in Xiao Mohe''s eyes suddenly quieted down, dimming somewhat, surprisingly making them sense her grief.<ol><li> 綾龍法書 ?</li><li> 青出 ?</li><li> 肉飛仙 lit.
