"The Thousand Mountains Realm's physical body, you actually used my hand to break through your physical body. I must say, you are the most daring person I have seen in over ten thousand years. But even so, do you think your physical body is enough to contend with me?"
The Demon Lord stopped absorbing. After glancing at Li Xuan, he understood immediately. However, this time, the Demon Lord's expression clearly turned grim. Being tricked by someone he viewed as an ant, how could the Demon Lord maintain a pleasant demeanor?
Upon hearing this, Li Xuan smiled and said, "With my own strength, it's naturally not enough. But, what about with this?"
As Li Xuan's words fell, a wisp of sword energy appeared in his hand.
The Demon Lord's pupils constricted sharply. A powerful sense of crisis surged into his heart. In the next moment, without any hesitation, the Demon Lord fled into the distance.
"You struck me three times, and now you want to escape?" Li Xuan coldly snorted, then flicked his finger. The wisp of sword energy in his hand shot straight towards the Demon Lord.
Boom!
A terrifying shockwave ravaged the surroundings, changing the colors of the heavens and earth. Everyone present was struck with great fear, clearly not expecting that wisp of sword energy from Li Xuan to possess such terrifying power.
Bang!
At the same time, the Demon Lord's body crashed heavily to the ground. His clothes were in disarray, and even the dark aura that had been swirling around his body was now so faint it was almost transparent. What's more, the Demon Lord was covered in wounds.
It was evident that all of this was the result of that wisp of sword energy.
"Who are you!" The Demon Lord spat out a mouthful of blood, his expression contorted as he looked at Li Xuan. In his eyes, deep fear was evident. With just a wisp of sword energy, he was about to be annihilated!
"Who I am, does it matter to you? Rest in peace on your journey," Li Xuan said with a curl of his lips.
In the next moment, the immortal sword was already in his hand. As Li Xuan's thoughts moved, the Demon Lord's head was cleanly severed by the immortal sword. Li Xuan was unaware that even if he hadn't intervened, the Demon Lord wouldn't have survived. That wisp of sword energy had already extinguished all of the Demon Lord's life force.
"Don't let them escape." With the Demon Lord's death, the oppressive force that had been restraining everyone also dissipated. Li Xuan glanced at the demon race members who had already begun to flee wildly towards the Demonic Origin Continent and shouted loudly.
Of course, Li Xuan didn't need to shout. The Grand Hall Master and the others, who had recovered, were already rushing towards the fleeing demons. Although the Demon Lord was dead, who could guarantee that another wouldn't appear? To cut the weeds and eliminate the roots was the best way to resolve the issue permanently.
"Young Master's sword energy, it's so terrifying!" On the clouds, Lian Qiao, behind Luo Xuan, exclaimed in surprise.
"It seems the Young Master has had another fortuitous encounter," the Elder nodded slightly, a hint of solemnity evident on his face.
Luo Xuan fell silent for a moment before speaking, "Elder, with your strength, could you withstand that wisp of sword energy?"
The Elder shook his head slightly and replied, "I couldn't. The owner of the Young Master's sword energy likely possesses strength far surpassing our Patriarch."
"It seems we were worrying unnecessarily," Luo Xuan said, looking at Li Xuan below with some surprise. After all, the Elder was a cultivator at the Samsara Realm, yet he couldn't withstand that wisp of sword energy.
"Miss, what kind of incredible fortune do you think Young Master has encountered?" Lian Qiao asked curiously.
Luo Xuan smiled and replied, "Why don't you go and ask him?"
Lian Qiao stuck out her tongue and said, "Miss, Young Master definitely won't tell me. Miss, you are Young Master's elder sister, he should tell you."
Luo Xuan shook her head slightly and said, "It's not the right time to tell him yet. We should wait a bit longer."
Lian Qiao sighed helplessly and said, "Alas, Young Master is also pitiful, having grown up alone his entire life. Now that he has finally met you, Miss, and you still don't acknowledge him."
"You, if you focused your mind on cultivation, you wouldn't still be lingering in the Initial Origin Realm! Alright, let's go." Luo Xuan tapped Lian Qiao's head and then looked at Li Xuan before turning to leave.
The Elder nodded slightly and followed Luo Xuan. Lian Qiao rubbed her head, pouted, and quickly followed.
"Lian Qiao, give this jade pendant to him. Do not mention anything about our foster parents, not a single word." Luo Xuan suddenly stopped and looked at Lian Qiao, and a jade pendant floated in front of Lian Qiao.
"Miss, this is a token representing the identity of the owner of Xingyao Business Firm. You're just giving it to Young Master like this?" Lian Qiao was stunned and said.
Luo Xuan smiled and replied, "What is mine, is also his."
"As Miss says," Lian Qiao covered her mouth and smiled, then took the jade pendant and disappeared.
Meanwhile, Li Xuan below, as if sensing something, looked up at the sky. However, he saw nothing unusual and then shook his head, walking towards Ye Zhengwei and the others.
"Senior Brother, are you all alright?" Li Xuan no longer hid his identity, as Ye Zhengwei and the others had already been exposed. Seeing Ye Zhengwei and the others sitting on the ground, panting, Li Xuan asked.
Ye Zhengwei and the others shook their heads slightly, then looked at Li Xuan, hesitant to speak.
"Junior Brother, that wisp of sword energy of yours..." Ye Zhengwei said with a wry smile, finally asking. After all, if it weren't for Li Xuan today, their fate would have been unimaginable.
Li Xuan immediately replied, "That was left by my master."
Li Xuan knew that Ye Zhengwei and the others would inquire about this. When he produced that wisp of sword energy, Li Xuan knew this question would arise. However, Li Xuan did not hide it. After all, that wisp of sword energy was indeed left by his master, and Li Xuan believed Ye Zhengwei and the others wouldn't doubt it.
As for Li Xuan having a master while also joining the Body Sect, Li Xuan himself didn't find anything wrong with it. Moreover, unless one was a newly awakened mortal, how could anyone cultivate to the Martial God Realm without some guidance? Ye Zhengwei and the others should know this well.
"Junior Brother, thank you." Ye Zhengwei nodded slightly. His expression suggested he had already suspected something. Li Xuan's direct confession undoubtedly put Ye Zhengwei and the others at ease. Furthermore, this explanation was plausible, as Li Xuan, traveling alone, should possess some trump cards.
Of course, this trump card was indeed too powerful. After all, the Demon Lord was at the peak of the Karma Realm.
At this moment, everyone became curious about who Li Xuan's master was. But they could be certain that it was a powerful sword cultivator. That wisp of sword energy was proof enough.
"You are too kind, Senior Brother. I was just trying it out, and I didn't expect its power to be quite good. Senior Brother, you should heal first," Li Xuan said with a smile.
In fact, the power of that wisp of sword energy had also startled Li Xuan. Although Li Xuan had already confirmed that his elusive master was extremely powerful, he was still surprised when that wisp of sword energy severely wounded the Demon Lord.
Clearly, his master's strength was even greater than the Demon Lord's.
At this moment, the Heavenly Dao Brush within the Suppressing Prison, as if aware of Li Xuan's thoughts, scoffed and spat, "What nonsense, to be compared to that person."
