Chapter 182: Chapter 179 CrisisHaving sent the puppet Demon General flying, Ye Xuan flicked his fingers, releasing a piercing Finger Light, knocking the Yin Spirit Ghost Pearl off his opponent before snatching it into his hand. His figure rapidly descended as Ye Xuan’s gaze swept the surroundings, searching for a passage out. However, in the midst of this search, he had not yet found a way out. His vision captured Ling Qianxue and the Witch Mu Yan locked in midair combat, but there was a change in the circle of battle. Clang! Mu Yan’s red whip struck Ling Qianxue’s sword, sparking fierce fire. Both women’s figures also retreated backward. Yet, as they retreated, Mu Yan suddenly raised her nail and drew it across her white jade forehead, carving a line from which crimson blood flowed. In the next moment, the flesh slowly parted to reveal a shocking pink light that burst forth fiercely. Within the dazzling pink light, a vertical eye emerged, releasing an extremely bewitching fluctuation. As the vertical eye opened, it seemed as if the entire world twisted slightly, drawing one in unconsciously, unable to escape. "What a powerful bewitching ability!" Ye Xuan fell into it the moment he locked eyes with the pink vertical eye, but it was not targeted at him; his willpower was extremely strong, so he quickly shook it off. However, he saw Ling Qianxue was still mesmerized, obviously not as quick to break free. Taking advantage of the bewitching power of the vertical eye on her forehead, a cold smile crept over Mu Yan’s lips. Then her blood-red whip danced wildly, launching a fierce attack aimed straight at Ling Qianxue’s throat, clearly intending to take this opportunity to kill her. Seeing this, Ye Xuan’s pupils shrank—he couldn’t let the enemy succeed. In a split second, a bright gleam flashed in his eyes, and he slammed the Spiritual Edge Sword into the ground. His fingers came together quickly, compressing the True Qi at their tips to an extremely concentrated state. At that moment, a stunning jade-colored spiral formed before Ye Xuan’s hands, growing stronger. Great Jade Spiral, ten fingers unite! Ye Xuan couldn’t care about the rapid depletion of True Qi inside him; if he was even a moment too late, Ling Qianxue would end up dead. "Go!" With a shout, the jade-colored spiral before him shot out abruptly, a meteor-like streak across the sky, hurtling toward the beautiful but viperous Witch Mu Yan. After summoning the vertical eye, Mu Yan’s concentration was slightly dispersed, and she was focused almost entirely on Ling Qianxue in front of her, seizing this chance to strike down the proud daughter of Heavenly Martial Hall. But she was oblivious to the jade-colored spiral unleashed by Ye Xuan’s all-out effort, which had sliced through the air and was now brutally attacking her from behind. Boom! As she was about to end Ling Qianxue’s life, the jade-colored spiral struck Mu Yan’s back hard. A gush of blood spurted from her red lips as her red whip lost its aim and hit Ling Qianxue’s chest. Puff! Even though the strike did not hit a vital spot, the damage was still not to be underestimated, especially since it came while Ling Qianxue was under the spell and unguarded. She suffered a severe injury and, like a kite with its string cut, fell from midair. With a stomp, Ye Xuan appeared right beneath the falling Ling Qianxue, dexterously neutralizing the force of the fall and catching her delicate body. He activated his True Qi to stabilize Ling Qianxue’s turbulent energy and quickly administered a Healing Pill to prevent the wound from worsening. "I..." Ling Qianxue was about to say something, but Ye Xuan shook his head and said softly, "Don’t speak." About thirty meters away, Mu Yan’s figure also landed, and she coughed violently a few times. Ye Xuan’s Finger Force had clearly caused substantial damage to her. "Truly, a love so deep and affectionate. Well, I shall grant your wish and send you both off to be a pair of lovers in death!" However, having just stabilized her stance, Mu Yan’s eyes turned icy cold. Then, the red whip in her hand lashed out again, striking like a fierce python, baring its fangs and claws as it pounced over. "Just you?" Facing Mu Yan’s renewed assault, a murderous intent also surfaced on Ye Xuan’s face. However, as he was placing Ling Qianxue to safety and preparing to move, the ground beneath his feet suddenly cracked open, and a skeletal white hand clawed out from the earth, abruptly grasping Ye Xuan’s ankle tightly. Hissing sounds... In but a few breaths, thin wisps of green smoke rose from the point where the hand touched Ye Xuan’s ankle, corroding his clothes and releasing a toxin with strong corrosive properties. Boom! With a stomp of his foot, Ye Xuan shot up explosively. At the same time, the ground beneath him exploded apart, and the figure of an old man, looking like a dried-up corpse, was still holding onto Ye Xuan’s ankle tightly. This old man was the Bone Demon General whom Ye Xuan and company had released earlier. "Courting death!" With the Spiritual Edge Sword gleaming brightly in his hand, Ye Xuan did not care who it was. He thrust his sword downward directly, the sharp blade aiming for the Bone Demon General’s crown. Yet this fierce thrust was caught by the other hand of the Bone Demon General, who managed to stop it forcefully. "Break!" A fury flashed in Ye Xuan’s eyes as he suddenly bellowed. A bolt of thunderous Sword Qi shot out like an electric current from the blade, striking towards the Bone Demon General’s crown. However, the latter dodged, resulting in the sword light landing on his shoulder, instantly carving a deep gash, with blood and flesh flying. Boom! Almost at the same moment, the enchanting Witch Mu Yan’s whip also arrived, striking Ye Xuan’s back harshly just as he injured the Bone Demon General. Spurt! Enduring such an attack, Ye Xuan could not help spitting out a mouthful of blood. A burning pain spread from his back, staining his shirt with fresh blood. Taking advantage of Ye Xuan’s injury, the Bone Demon General launched a sneak attack, striking Ye Xuan’s right leg unexpectedly and leaving behind a bloody claw mark on the thigh. Kicking the Bone Demon General’s head, Ye Xuan bore the severe pain. In his field of vision, although Mu Yan and the Bone Demon General—these two great demons—were both injured, it still seemed improbable to confront the two of them head-on. More crucially, he himself had also been injured. Whoosh! At that moment, to the side of Mu Yan and the Bone Demon General, another joined the fray––it was the Puppet Demon General whom Ye Xuan had previously defeated. Clearly, he had been recuperating and regaining some of his strength. Now, with the three great Demon Generals eyeing Ye Xuan voraciously, an unprecedented crisis descended upon him.
