His expression turned vicious, snorting coldly: “This old man has merely sent those sinners to their deaths slightly earlier than they were due. If it weren’t for you, girl, the formation would’ve been completed! This old man didn’t want to shed unnecessary blood, but you’ve given him no choice!”
Having said that, Yuangong Zhenren formed an impact hand-seal, sending it towards Ding Yi!
The boss’s power was on a different level compared to that of the vengeful spirit, whose specialty was scaring people.
Ding Yi couldn’t dodge in time and was sent flying into a nearby pillar. She almost felt like she could cough up blood.
If it weren’t for the system’s shield, she would’ve been turned into mincemeat!
The system urged her: You need to focus on destroying the formation first!
It was too late for words. The main objective was to reveal Yuankong Zhenren’s true colors and destroy the malicious magic formation!
Ding Yi forced the metallic taste in her mouth back down her throat and got up while gritting her teeth. She drew her peach-wood sword, attempting to close in on the formation of life and death while dodging Yuankong’s relentless attacks.
Perhaps because Yuankong had seen through Ding Yi’s intentions, he suddenly performed a killing move, gathering a large amount of energy for a soul suppressing curse while simultaneously drawing his sword and thrusting towards Ding Yi’s heart!
The soul suppressing curse felt like a jolt of high voltage electricity, causing Ding Yi to be paralyzed for a moment and helpless against the incoming sword-
“Ding Yi!” Mu Yueshi let out a heart wrenching scream.
In only a mere moment, Mu Yueshi’s eyes turned red, and a demonic aura gushed forth from all over his body. He charged towards Yuankong with a murderous resolve.
The terrifyingly vicious child actually managed to break Yuankong’s sword with his bare hands and quickly counter, sending his hand straight through Yuankong’s chest!
“You!” Yuankong spat out a mouthful of blood, and stared at Mu Yueshi, whose forehead was occupied by a dark rune.
Mu Yueshi had not a shred of rationality left. He repeatedly stabbed Yuankong with the blade of the broken sword still in his hands, uncaring as to whether his hands and face were caked with blood!
But Yuankong was still capable and quickly mustered up a counterattack, hitting the rampaging Mu Yueshi in the chest with an impact seal!
Mu Yueshi was caught off guard and subsequently collapsed while coughing up blood.
“Yueshi!!” Ding Yi screamed.
The bloodied Yuankong stood up and lifted Mu Yueshi by the scruff. His murky eyes emanated greed as his expression twisted into one of euphoria: “Hahaha! The blood of the demon lord! What a fortunate find! With you as the sacrifice, how could I not ascend?”
As he was saying that, he clutched Mu Yueshi’s head, attempting to crush it like an overripe berry!
The system sent out panic signals in a frenzy.
It was not a time to be a stickler for the rules; the system hurriedly commanded: Destroy the formation!! Smear it with Yuankong’s blood and split the biggest piece of wood! Quickly!!
Ding Yi didn’t have time to think. When she heard the system’s command, she immediately started executing it with unthinkable speed.
Smearing blood, grabbing the sword, destroying the formation’s core.
The whole process took her less than three seconds!
As soon as she split the bloody wooden figure with her sword, the formation of life and death cracked open. A cold gale howled through the room, sounding like the wail of a ghost.
Yuankong looked back, stupefied. When he saw that the formation was broken, he flew into a fit of rage.
His life’s work, destroyed just like that. Yuankong Zhenren descended further into madness. He glared at Ding Yi with bloodshot eyes: “I spent ten years making this formation, and you destroyed it just like that?!! I’ll kill you!!!”
Yuankong’s rage would not subside until he ripped Ding Yi apart. He lifted his hand and sent out another killing move. Ding Yi could not resist and fell onto her knees.
The enraged Yuankong lifted his sword and was just about to stab her to death.
But before he could even lift his arm, his back was pierced by a cold draft, and he slumped onto the ground.
His eyeballs looked back rigidly and saw Mu Yueshi pull his hand out from Yuankong’s chest cavity, half of his pretty pale face drenched in blood. It was both chilling and eerie.
Having exhausted all his strength, Mu Yueshi flopped onto the ground, but his eyes were still bloodthirsty: “The one who should die… is you.”
He wanted to kill Ding Yi.
So he should die.
Yuankong’s body went stiff with his eyes still wide open.
“Yueshi, Yueshi!!” Ding Yi crawled over and lifted the bloody Mu Yueshi up, her voice shaking: “Yueshi, are you alright? Can you hear me? Ah?”
Mu Yueshi’s eyes were unfocused. He grabbed Ding Yi’s neck, and hearing her choking voice, was suddenly filled with a sense of recklessness.
His bloodthirsty eyes turned resolute. He turned his slightly hazy gaze towards Ding Yi’s snowy white neck and bit down!
“Oww-“ Ding Yi shouted in pain as she realized that she had been bitten. Blood, either her or Mu Yueshi’s, dripped down from her neck and onto the back of her hand.
Ding Yi was shocked.
“…Yueshi, what are you doing?” she asked in a shaking voice.
Mu Yueshi fell into her bosom, his voice a quiet hush: “…forming a contract.”
