Peerless Taoist

The Yin ghosts escaped and let out strange cries.    

The group of ghosts came out of their cages, but they did not panic at all when facing Lu Yu. Instead, they rushed over to him.    

They did not know fear, did not know panic, and only knew how to thirst for blood.    

"As expected of a group of beasts!"    

Lu Yu's eyes emitted an ice-cold light. Without any hesitation, he used his mind to activate the Heavenly Emperor True Fire and swept it in all directions.    

The golden flames engulfed everything in an instant, forming a golden sea of fire around Lu Yu. The flames rose and burned fiercely. The Yin Ghosts let out ear-piercing screams as they were burned to ashes.    

In an instant, the flames retreated, and there was still a burning aura in the air.    

The space around Lu Yu continued to fluctuate intensely as it condensed into fire runes that rose and disappeared.    

In the next moment, Lu Yu's figure flashed and disappeared.    

...    

The desert was boundless. When they reached the depths of the alternate world, the sky became darker and darker.    

The remaining moonlight passed through the thick clouds and fell onto the ground. There were weird rocks in every direction and sand and wind blew. It was like the setting sun.    

Pang Nianqiu was wearing a thin white shirt and held a string in his hand. At the end of the string were more than a dozen stone puppets.    

These stone puppets didn't have any intelligence. They were controlled by the thread and were like puppets.    

"As expected of a demonic girl. All of her skills are wicked!" Some of the Duan family Elders surrounded Pang Nianqiu and roared with their eyes wide open.    

Several bodies of the Duan family members were lying on the ground.    

Looking at the situation, it seemed like the Duan Clan hadn't obtained any benefits while they were attacking Nianqiu, and instead, they had suffered heavy losses.    

Pang Nianqiu laughed coldly: "What do you mean by evil? This is what my Master taught me. Do you dare to question me?"    

The expressions of the few Duan Clan elders changed. Pang Nianqiu's Master was that great figure whose name shook the Netherworld, so how could they dare to speak rudely?    

"What are you afraid of? He's just a dead person."    

A group of cultivators riding on beasts arrived. All of them were wearing heavy dragon scale armor. Only a pair of cold eyes could be seen.    

They were the Heaven Qilin Guards of the Duan family, and they were the core force protecting the Duan family. All of them had been transferred into the ruins.    

At the center of all the Sky Qilin Guards was a very unique existence. It was a middle-aged man with a graceful bearing. He was wearing a scholarly robe, and his long beard fluttered in the wind. What a refined and elegant man.    

However, it would be a mistake to look down on this man. Although the man was elegant, there was a dark look in his eyes, as if he were plotting an endless scheme.    

This person was the king of the Ninth World, Duan Zhangqing!    

"Little girl Pang, if you don't know what you're doing, then don't blame me for not remembering what I did back then. Hand over the secret key of the ancient palace and I'll let you live." Duan Zhangqing said.    

His actions were elegant and elegant as if he was a true gentleman described in a book.    

Even though he was scolding Pang Nianqiu, he still acted as if he was an elder scolding a junior.    

Pang Nianqiu laughed, "Duan Changqing, there's no one else here, so you don't need to pretend to be so fake. Back then, you were the one who swore loyalty in front of me, and now, you are also the one who betrayed him. What do you and I have to do with each other back then?"    

These words did not give Duan Zhangqing any face at all.    

Duan Zhangqing frowned: "So you're saying that you want to walk down a dark path?"
