The Eight Empresses Betrayed Me, Only to Deeply Regret It After Being Reborn-Chapter 129: The Past
Within the light screen—
Vermilion Bird appeared in the Ancestral Court of the demon race.
In her hands, she held the Myriad Spirit Blood-Transforming Demon Scripture, her entire body trembling uncontrollably.
Her face was filled with disbelief.
Her eyes were wide open.
Her aura surged within her. The Vermilion Flame ignited on its own, burning many objects in the Ancestral Court to ash.
Vermilion Bird could see it clearly—this was indeed what had happened when she was in the Ancestral Court.
Pfft!
A great mouthful of blood from her heart spewed from her mouth.
Vermilion Bird began to laugh madly.
“Hahaha—fake! It’s all fake! The technique cultivated by the Myriad Spirit Demon Emperor doesn’t even contain a soul-seizing method! Hahaha—it was all fake...”
“Lu Ye! Lu Ye!”
“You fooled me so badly! You deceived me so terribly!”
Another mouthful of blood gushed out.
Vermilion Bird collapsed into unconsciousness on the spot.
In the scene before her, nothing differed from her own memory—there had been no one else present in the Ancestral Court at the time. Then how had this footage come to exist?
Vermilion Bird stared blankly at the light screen.
In the image, the unconscious Vermilion Bird suddenly opened her eyes—but those eyes absolutely did not belong to her.
“Hahaha, Lu Ye! Lu Ye! In the end, I was still one step ahead. Even if your strength defies the heavens, so what? Your woman—your beloved—now falls into my hands. Do you dare kill me?”
The parasitic sky demon let out a hideous, twisted laugh.
“From the First Heaven all the way up to my Seventh Heaven—you suppressed me again and again! Lu Ye, you’ve been the greatest enemy of my entire life!”
“Come on! Try and destroy me completely!”
“Come!”
Vermilion Bird’s body lifted into the air, flying rapidly toward the Canglan Sea.
At that time, the parasitic sky demon had already been fully suppressed by Lu Ye. The two were battling in the Canglan Sea, waves surging wildly—the entirety of the Seventh Heaven drowned in terrifying pressure.
Countless techniques, blinding sword light.
The ultimate clash between man and demon.
The parasitic sky demon, even as he was being beaten, laughed with unbridled joy.
“Hahaha! Lu Ye! In the end, I’ve won! I’ve won!”
The parasitic sky demon laughed hysterically at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye raised an eyebrow. “Idiot.”
The Heaven-Penetrating Fist exploded with terrifying power—already showing faint traces of the Heavenly Lord Fist in its embryonic form. A single punch made the parasitic sky demon cough up mouthfuls of blood.
“As a mighty being, can’t you speak more elegantly? I’m a demon and I still don’t speak as rudely as you do!” The parasitic sky demon hated nothing more than how Lu Ye always cursed and mocked him like he was an idiot.
“Oh, really? Then allow me to be more elegant.”
“Excuse me, are you an idiot?”
The parasitic sky demon flew into a frenzy, unleashing demonic magic that shook the skies, launching himself at Lu Ye with full force.
And then—got sent flying again.
The demon’s body was repeatedly shattered under the assault.
Sword light howled—Grand Slaughter Sword Art unleashed devastating power.
The parasitic sky demon grew weaker and weaker. His aura continued to fade, his body more riddled with wounds than the fish in the Canglan Sea.
“Die!”
Lu Ye raised his sword—heaven and earth dimmed in its presence.
“Supreme Sword!”
This was the embryonic form of Lu Ye’s Emperor Sword—the path of Supreme Sword Dao.
Lu Ye was, arguably, the first in all history to reach the Emperor Realm through sword alone, then, after the sword’s destruction, abandon it for fist cultivation—and ultimately ascend to the Heavenly Lord Realm with the fist.
What could anyone °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° say? Lu Ye was simply proficient in everything.
The system’s enlightenment and deduction features had perfectly assisted him in pushing every technique and method to the pinnacle.
The light of the Supreme Sword flared.
Just as Lu Ye was about to obliterate the parasitic sky demon with a single sword—
A figure suddenly stepped between them.
Lu Ye’s sword was already coming down—
And yet he forcibly halted it. His arms burst open with blood, and the stone sword let out a mournful cry.
“Hahahahaha! Lu Ye! Cut me down!”
“Kill me!”
“Kill your most beloved woman right along with me!”
“If you don’t kill that foolish Vermilion Bird, then I won’t die!”
The parasitic sky demon erupted in grotesque, maniacal laughter.
It laughed so hard tears came out.
It didn’t believe for a second that Lu Ye would go through with it—because even he, an outsider, knew just how much Lu Ye cared for Vermilion Bird.
“You think I don’t dare?”
The moment he saw Vermilion Bird appear, Lu Ye understood everything.
His face twisted with savagery, his killing intent more violent than ever before.
“Hahaha! Come on then—kill me!”
“Vermilion Bird” took a step forward, coming right up to Lu Ye and stretching out her neck for him to strike.
“Who in the world doesn’t know that these women are the most important things in your life—more precious than all the treasures of the world.”
“Do you dare to kill?”
“Can you bear to kill?”
“Hahahaha...”
Vermilion Bird watched the scene unfold in the light screen, her heart frozen with cold.
So this... this had happened after she lost consciousness...
It turned out that in her past life, she had already been parasitized by the parasitic sky demon.
But if the situation had become that dire, then how had Lu Ye broken the deadlock? How had he killed the parasitic sky demon without harming her?
Lu Ye swung his sword—
And the final true body of the parasitic sky demon was destroyed on the spot.
The demon was stunned.
“You’re insane!”
“Vermilion Bird” roared in fury.
With the destruction of its last true body, it now meant that from this moment onward—it could only be Vermilion Bird.
And Vermilion Bird could only be it.
It had no desire to become Lu Ye’s woman.
It didn’t even have a fixed gender to begin with. It was...
Wait—being Lu Ye’s woman... wasn’t necessarily a bad thing? freёnovelkiss.com
Truthfully, of all the opponents the parasitic sky demon had ever encountered, Lu Ye was the only one it had truly needed to take seriously—and even to admire.
Aside from his women, Lu Ye had no weaknesses. His techniques were endless, his power beyond terrifying.
“Don’t you realize? The moment you destroyed my final body, I could only be Vermilion Bird—and Vermilion Bird could only be me!”
A cold smile tugged at the corners of Lu Ye’s lips.
“Is that so?”
Suddenly, Lu Ye grabbed Vermilion Bird’s arm. At the same time, he slashed open both of their arms.
The next instant, their blood mingled and intertwined—an enormous Yin-Yang Diagram appeared above their heads.
Black and white rotated, Lunar and Solar energies exploded, cycling endlessly in infinite transformations.
The two of them were engulfed in blinding light.
Until—Vermilion Bird was blasted away.
Lu Ye dropped to his knees in the void, sweat dripping from his face in great beads.
This method of Yin-Yang Transformation, after so many consecutive applications, was even more exhausting than dual cultivation with Bai Qiulan.
The parasitic sky demon was left completely dazed.
Its consciousness had just been whipped, dragged, twisted, and flung in a frenzy by the force of Yin and Yang.
When it all ended—
Its awareness found itself inside Lu Ye’s body.
The parasitic sky demon was utterly horrified. It had no idea how Lu Ye had pulled this off—but this technique was far too terrifying.
If Lu Ye were to just grab some random creature and use this method again, wouldn’t he be able to relocate the demon into another host?
Then kill it easily?
In a panic, the parasitic sky demon began to fuse wildly with Lu Ye, trying to infect and parasitize every inch of his soul and flesh.
Lu Ye paid it no attention.
He placed Vermilion Bird gently onto a spirit vessel—
And vanished.
