Rumble.

Heaven and earth trembled.

Gongyang Jin's sword tore through the sky, striking the Tier Eight Snake Emperor, with each slash drawing blood!

What was supposed to be a balanced battle suddenly became a one-sided domination, catching the Yexieqi Snake Emperor off guard.

If not for sensing the aura of the Tier Nine Insect Emperor, they wouldn't have recklessly chosen this escape route.

Unexpectedly, they didn't find the Tier Nine Insect Emperor, but instead encountered a female demon with strength comparable to Wei Qing!

The Tier Eight Snake Emperor possesses intelligence comparable to humans and assessed the situation aptly, making an immediate decision.

Run!

It wasn't that the Tier Eight Yexieqi Snake Emperor was inferior to Gongyang Jin, but there was a power imbalance between them.

On Gongyang Jin's side, she originally had a hidden ailment affecting her ability to exert her full strength, but now, the ailment was entirely gone, and she was at her peak. Moreover, with Han Zhan's Fu Xi Zither amplifying her, she was like a tiger with wings.

In contrast, the Tier Eight Yexieqi Snake Emperor had already engaged with Wei Qing, consuming a portion of their strength. Having fled a long distance, they could only wield less than half of their power, giving Gongyang Jin a clear advantage.

Seeing their intention to flee, Gongyang Jin was relentless.

Destruction Giant Blade Light Blade Continuous Slash, with a semicircular Moonlight Air Blade falling from the sky, crashing onto the mountain-bodied Yexieqi Snake Emperor.

One massive sound after another.

The Yexieqi Snake Emperor cried out in pain, but being so massive, the advantage it once had in size turned into a disadvantage when faced with a nimble enemy, leaving it a sitting duck.

Gongyang Jin continued her assault.

Han Zhan's Fu Xi Zither continuously resonated, maintaining her Dragon Soaring Technique amplification and ceaselessly restoring her spiritual power.

Although it was their first time teaming up, their cooperation was seamless.

Finally, with a thunderous crash, the entire ground trembled a few times. A snake head larger than a mountain fell from mid-air, smashing into the ground with great force.

Kicking up a storm of wind and dust.

The first of the Tier Eight Yexieqi Snake Emperors had fallen, and the other couldn't hold its ground alone.

Soon, it too fell under Gongyang Jin's sword!

Slicing the snakes effortlessly!

Defeating the two Snake Emperors, Gongyang Jin remained at full strength, her fighting spirit undiminished. Her mood was jubilant as she glanced at Han Zhan with great satisfaction.

After a while,

Wei Qing also arrived at the battlefield.

Indeed, the commotion here was too great to ignore.

"Is it you?"

Seeing Gongyang Jin opposite him, Wei Qing was quite surprised.

It shouldn't be; he knew Gongyang Jin's strength. After all, they had just had a duel a month ago, and though she could kill those two Tier Eight Snake Emperors back then, she absolutely couldn't have done so with such ease.

Then, Wei Qing noticed the man standing beside Gongyang Jin.

"Little Junior Brother?!"

Wei Qing exclaimed.

Upon hearing Wei Qing call him, Han Zhan's face immediately darkened.

Senior Brother, you really have muscles for brains, not a shred of intelligence.

Sure enough, after hearing Wei Qing's exclamation, Gongyang Jin's expression became vigilant, and she directly stood between Wei Qing and Han Zhan, cutting off any possibility of them approaching each other.

It was over.

Han Zhan was about to get closer when complications arose.

"What are you doing? Let go of my Little Junior Brother!" Wei Qing, not realizing what he had done, rushed forward to take Han Zhan by force.

Gongyang Jin barred her sword across her.

"Your Little Junior Brother? As expected, I knew it; a man appealing to me, Gongyang Jin, couldn't just be an ordinary Spirit Contract Master."

"Turns out he's Li's student; it seems I've stumbled upon a treasure this time."

Facing Wei Qing's advances, Gongyang Jin showed no signs of backing down.

Even though she might not be a match for Wei Qing now, after clashing with him, she was confident she could retreat safely with Han Zhan.

"Han Zhan is already my consort and will soon return with me to the City of Extreme Evil."

Gongyang Jin's words left Wei Qing stunned and incredulous.

Did he hear that right?

The notorious Female Demon, Gongyang Jin, from the City of Extreme Evil, wanted to take his Little Junior Brother as a consort?

What kind of twist was this!

Wei Qing was about to say more but was already pulled by his ear by a mature, alluringly dressed middle-aged woman next to him.

"If you can't speak well, then just shut up."

"Gongyang Jin, you're no match for the two of us. Release him now, and you can still leave Great Xia safely."

You're not much better at speaking either... Han Zhan thought, nearly fainting.

Gongyang Jin had already embraced him closely.

Han Zhan found himself in the embrace, inhaling the faint fragrance, hastily biting down on his tongue to keep his resolve.

"I won't release him. What can you do about it?" Gongyang Jin responded with a hint of provocation.

Both sides were at a stalemate.

"Senior Brother, don't mind me for now."

Han Zhan finally lifted his buried head to speak to Wei Qing.

"With the Battle of Yixieqi approaching, you're responsible for the First War Zone. You should focus on the main battlefield and not get distracted by my small matter."

"You boy, you can't seriously be thinking of going back with her, can you?" Wei Qing exclaimed, eyes wide, disappointed as if iron not turning to steel, "With all the lovely wives at home, isn't that enough? Does the grass seem greener on the other side?"

"Don't worry about the main battlefield. The fact that I can stand here and chat with you means it's all under control over there."

"The Yexieqi Snake Race had only four Tier Eight Snake Emperors in total. I've killed two, Gongyang Jin has killed two, and you've already intercepted and exterminated all the young snakes hatched in their nest long before. There's no pressure on the main battlefield."

"Victory is only a matter of time."

Wei Qing's words allowed Han Zhan some relief.

Rounding up, it seemed that Han Zhan and Gongyang Jin had resolved over half of the issues in the Battle of Yixieqi.

At that moment,

the entire Yixieqi battlefield suddenly shook violently.

Drones overseeing the battlefield from above showed that all the corpses of the Yexieqi Snake Race, along with the bodies of all the human Spirit Contract Masters and Contracted Spirits on the battlefield,

all sank into the ground and disappeared.

Together with the four Tier Eight Snake Emperors.

An array of crimson light appeared beneath everyone's feet!

The light array stretched east-west-north-south, enveloping both the human battlefield and the Yexieqi Snake Race battlefield.

The intricate and ancient crimson patterns cast the entire Battle of Yixieqi field in a vivid red.

Rumble!

The "Yumen Pass", which had held for several months, split open with violent shakes, first a crack, then a second, a third...

The Yumen Pass, breached!

Beneath the fragmented ground, countless sands were devoured entirely.

A menacing snake head, dozens of times larger than the Tier Eight Snake Emperor, emerged from the original position of Yumen Pass!

"Array of Billions Sacrifices of Life and Death?"

"This aura belongs to the Tier Nine Snake Emperor of the Yexieqi Snake Race!"

Everyone's faces turned unprecedentedly grave.
