CBGC - ch96.3

     "Xuan Qi, you boast that you belong to a Righteous Sect, but you slaughtered over a hundred thousand people in Jinxiu City alone for your own selfish gain. For someone like you to claim to be on the Righteous Path, I spit on it!"

     The Jade Maiden has shattered the barrier. As she speaks, she uses all her strength for the sound of her voice to travel for thousands of li. Her voice booms like a thunderstorm in Spring, alarming people all over the world.

     "What nonsense!" A trace of panic flashes across Xuan Qi's face. He swings his knife at her, and the Jade Maiden is powerless to dodge. Her body is pierced by the knife, nailing her on a broken wall.

     Where she’s landed, it happens to be close to Wang Ningxi.

     Wang Ningxi is not dead yet. She stares blankly at the blood-covered female demon. She is called the most vicious woman in the Demonic Path. Countless people have died at her hands. But at this moment, Wang Ningxi feels some doubt towards those rumors.

     She- is she trying to save Jinxiu City?

     As if sensing Wang Ningxi's gaze, the Jade Maiden strains to turn her head. She looks at Wang Ningxi.

     This is her daughter. This girl is different from her. Dan Biqing protects Jinxiu City, fills it with flowers and beauty, and allows the low-level cultivators in this city to live in peace— could it be that he’s doing all of these for this child?

     She may not be particularly talented, but she has grown up happily and safely. The people by her side have all treated her with great kindness.

     This is his doing, he’s given her Jinxiu City. Live a life of peace and joy, in this city of splendor that’s made only for you.

     The Jade Maiden looks at Wang Ningxi with incredibly tender eyes.

     Wang Ningxi is immediately startled. This is a female demon who’s name strikes fear in people’s hearts. She is staring at Wang Ningxi, causing the latter to tremble all over. However, for some reason, Wang Ningxi finds in this demon’s eyes— a light that is incredibly gentle and warm.

     She feels like she’s seen it before.

     "You…"

     The demon sends her a small nod, and smiles faintly. Then, she grabs the knife with one hand, pulls it with some force, and flies back into the sky, going straight to Xuan Qi.

     "You court death..." The next moment, a drastic change comes over Xuan Qi's face.

     She actually dares to blow herself up!

     Right now, the barrier has been broken, and Xuan Qi is in the middle of trying to put it back up, so that she won’t be able to escape with her primordial spirit. Who would have thought that she would choose to explode her primordial spirit!

     People like them, those whose cultivation base has reached Tribulation Transcendent, will fight tooth and nail as long as there is a miniscule chance of survival. They’d fight humanity, fight the Heavens, he absolutely never imagined that she would choose to do this instead.

     The power of a Tribulation Transcendent cultivator detonating her own primordial spirit will definitely hurt him.

     Xuan Qi brandishes his magic weapon, operating his spiritual energy to the extreme, and brings out a barrier made of it. His figure rapidly retreats, but the Jade Maiden’s thoughts are consumed by this one goal. She frantically wraps Xuan Qi with the last of the silk ribbons on her body, and then flies towards him like a shot...

     Her bloody form collides with Xuan Qi, and the two of them rise into the sky together. Only a loud explosion is heard, as the whole sky suddenly goes dark, black clouds seem to cover the heavens and shadow the earth.

     After the explosion, Xuan Qi emerges in a sorry state, head and face filthy with grime.

     Damn Jade Maiden, he’s severely injured from her blowing herself up! Now that the demon woman is dead, this Jinxiu City cannot remain! He must silence all the cultivators in the city. Only the dead will have no means to speak ill of him.

     But at this moment, a voice rings out, "Not many have died. What a pity."

     In the sky, the Nightmare Tapir Phoenix Feather Frame has quietly appeared. It silently floats high in the sky, looking extremely eerie and terrifying. The Dream-Eating Tapir roars, and even Xuan Qi couldn't help but feel his heart pound.

     He is injured at this time, he couldn't fight the Moon Worship Cult’s Demon Venerable at all. Thinking of this, Xuan Qi grits his teeth and flees far away in an instant.

T/N: I’m so sorry for the month of inactivity. I got overwhelmed by the holidays, and then got sick for two weeks.

There’s another mass update next week. Thank you so much!
