Ming Shu decided to not bullshit anymore and killed the demon king first just in case someone arrived to stop her.

  She kicked the demon bone to Lian Jing and placed the demon king on the ground. She picked up a tree branch and held it in her hand.

  “What are you doing?”


  “Killing it.”


  The man screamed, “Stop it. How dare you!”


  Ming Shu moved her head sideways. “Why will I not dare to do it? Watch me. I will do it in front of you right now.”


  The blood in the demon king’s eyes was almost oozing out. The tree branch got closer to it.

  The soft tree branch became as sharp as a sword and pierced directly into the demon king’s heart.

  The demon king stared at Ming Shu maliciously. After a while, the light in its eyes dimmed. He opened his mouth and breathed heavily.

  The demon king……

  Was killed by a tree branch……

  When the sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect and Qian Yuan Sect arrived, Ming Shu had made a fire and was barbecuing meat.

  The man glared at her as he lay on the floor. Blood oozed from his eyes, nose, and mouth. His chest moved up and down. He was still alive.

  The two sect leaders looked at each other.

  “Miss July, where is the demon king?” The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect walked up and scanned the surroundings. There was nothing that looked like the demon king around them. His gaze fell on the meat she was cooking.

  “Here.” Ming Shu pointed at the meat.

  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect: “.……”


  The sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect: “.……”


  “Look at your expressions.” Ming Shu flipped the meat. “I will not eat that kind of thing.”


  The sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect was imposing. “Where is the demon king?”


  She was a devilish cultivator. He couldn’t predict if she killed the demon king or let the demon king get away. She might even form an alliance with the demon king.

  They needed to see the demon king’s body personally to feel at ease.

  Ming Shu smiled brightly. “I will not tell you.”


  “.……”


  “Miss July……” The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect wanted to say something, but the sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect stopped him.

  A ball of ghostfire appeared behind Ming Shu slowly.

  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect got a shock. “The devil race……”


  As the sect that protected the wooden tablet which sealed the devil race, he was confused.

  How did the devils come out?

  He looked at Ming Shu in fear. “Did you release the devils?”


  Ming Shu replied, “Who else would it be? You?”


  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect asked, “Why did you let them out?”


  Ming Shu said, “To find the demon king.”


  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect: “.……You released the devil race to find the demon king?!”


  The devil race and the demon race were both evil.

  The demon race was cruel but they were stupid.

  On the other hand, the devil race was narrow-minded and shameless. They could wait for 100 years before taking their revenge. Not everyone would turn into an immortal so the moment you were on the brink of death, they would come together and take their revenge.

  They were the most patient and shameless race in the cultivation world.

  If these two races were to battle it out, the devil race would definitely win. They could just wait.

  The demon king iwas s missing and the devil race was released by this devilish cultivator……

  Should they still fight?

  The sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect said in a low voice, “The sword that she has in her hand is probably the Lianjing sword.”


  The Lianjing sword was sealed along with the devil race.

  That could explain why the sword in her hand kept changing from the Yi Xie sword to the Duan Xu sword.

  As they were speaking, a man in black robes walked toward them.

  The man was walking elegantly with arrogance on his face. His presence caused the scenery around him to lose color.

  A red piece of bone was in his hand. Demonic aura flowed around it, but he was not the least affected.

  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect frowned. He was appalled. He took half a step back.

  The sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect saw his reaction and looked at the man carefully. A memory from long ago floated into his mind.

  Lian Jing passed the demon bone to the sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect.

  “Your Highness……” the sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect called.

  The Qian Yuan Sect had a stronger relationship with Lian Jing. This was why they had the wooden tablet.

  That year…… this person became a disciple of their sect. Even though it was just a title, he was still a disciple from the Qian Yuan Sect.

  His painting was hung up in their sect.

  If not, the sect leader might not have recognized him so quickly.

  “I am just the sword spirit, Lian Jing, now,” Lian Jing said calmly. He placed the demon bone in the sect leader’s hand. “I will take care of the devil race. You all don’t have to worry about it.”


  “Yes,” the sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect answered instinctively.

  “Go now.”


  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect left without questioning Lian Jing at all. He signaled the sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect to follow him and they left with the demon bone.

  Ming Shu stopped them. “Can you take this person away too?”


  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect glanced at the dying man and his mouth corners twitched. However, Lian Jing was looking at them. They had no choice but to drag the man away.

  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect heaved a sigh of relief after they walked some distance.

  “He is not dead.”


  The sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect was stunned.

  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect said, “He was the only prince that inherited the immortal spirits of the ancestors of the dragon race. We were not born then. I didn’t expect to see His Highness here today.”


  The sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect looked at the sun shining at the edge of the sky. “That era……”


  That era was more chaotic than their era now.

  Demons and devils ran wild in the country.

  However, it was an era where achieving immortality was easier too. Golden elixirs were everywhere and the spirit infant level seemed easy to achieve.

  Many legendary figures came from that era.

  His Highness from the dragon race was a prodigy that was born toward the end of the era. Everyone thought that he would reach immortality and have lots of achievements.

  Unfortunately, he chose to end the chaotic era.

  The demon king died.

  The devil race…… With Lian Jing around, there was nothing they had to worry about.

  The sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect was curious. “Why is His Highness with July?’


  The sect leader of the Wuji Sword Sect replied, “Why didn’t you ask him just now?”


  “I didn’t dare to!” He looked young but he was their senior. When his name appeared in the country, they were not even born yet.

  “Heh……”


  “Old bastard, what are you laughing at? Will you dare to ask?”


  “.……”
……

  The demon bone that Lian Jing gave the sect leader of the Qian Yuan Sect was the demon bone of the demon king who was just born.

  The demon bone was the key to allowing the demon king to grow up. If it was not disposed off properly, it was only a matter of time before the demon king came back.

  As for the demon bone that could control all the demons, Lian Jing kept it and gave it to Ming Shu.

  Ming Shu returned to the village. Most of the people had gone back.

  The Qian Yuan Sect was still there because their young lord was still here.

  “Sister, Sister, you came back.” The young lord waved at Ming Shu happily. “I knew that you would come back.”


  Ming Shu: “.……”

  The young lord ran into Ming Shu’s arms. He passed the thing in his hand to her and smiled at her cutely. “Sister, look what I left for you.”


  Lian Jing had turned back into a sword. It was a green sword now. It jumped around Ming Shu furiously.
