He took a deep breath, suppressed the metallic taste in his throat, and hissed a cold laugh at the Soul Eater. Although his voice was weak, it was full of ridicule and hatred: “Old Devil your death is here! Heavenly Flame Sword Master is here let us see how long you can remain arrogant!”
The Soul Devourer composed himself, and two cold red lights swept towards Ling Yan. Sensing the aura of the other party, who had also reached the peak of the ninth rank of the Heavenly God Realm and whose sword intent was pure and vast, his eyes narrowed slightly.
But then, a more mocking smile appeared on his lips.
“So you’re the one.” The Soul Devourer’s voice was filled with undisguised disdain. “What? Instead of guarding your Blazing Fire Secret Realm, you came here to meddle in other people’s affairs? You think you can save someone from my clutches?”
Hearing that, Ling Yan’s expression darkened, and the scarlet longsword in his hand buzzed, his fiery sword intent soaring into the sky: “Soul Devouring Demon! Stop your arrogance! I and fellow Daoist Chen have history. With my presence today, you will not be allowed to harm him!”
“If you know what’s best for you, retreat immediately, or don’t blame me if I mercilessly use my sword!”
“Ha ha ha ha!”
The Soul Devourer seemed to have heard the funniest joke, “No mercy under the sword? You? If your eldest brother and second brother came, I would be even more afraid.”
“You? A useless old man who has guarded this secret realm for thousands of years and whose cultivation has barely progressed in the slightest, dares to spout nonsense in front of me?”
His demonic energy surged again, and his immense and terrifying soul pressure was released without hesitation, locking onto Ling Yan: “Since you insist on seeking death, then today, I will also take care of you!”
“Perfect timing! Absorbing your sword spirit and fire essence, which you have cultivated for many years, will be of great benefit to my recovery!”
David was quite surprised and didn’t understand how the Soul Eater knew Ling Yan’s background, and even knew that the Fire Spirit Star King and the Fire Demon King were fellow disciples.
It seems like this Soul Eater knows a lot of things.
Just when tensions were rising and a major battle seemed imminent—
“Buzz-!”
“Buzz-!”
Two very different yet equally meaningful spatial fluctuations, each containing supreme majesty and vast Daoist charm, spread out from different directions above the battlefield almost simultaneously!
Immediately afterwards, two figures, one on the left and one on the right, seemed to step directly out of the depths of the void and descended on this place!
The man on the left wore a magnificent robe that looked like it was woven from flowing dark red magma and black devil flames. His face was handsome but scary, with a demonic mark in the form of a fire burning between his eyebrows. His red eyes seemed to harbor a tyrannical and wild spirit capable of burning the sky.
He just stood there, and the laws of fire around him spontaneously activated and submitted, emitting an aura of destruction and dominance that made everything tremble. It was none other than the Blazing Fire Demon King—Li Jin!
The person on the right wore a simple white robe embroidered with a faint golden pattern of flames and clouds. His face was gentle and calm, and his eyes were clear and deep, as if they contained infinite light and warmth.
His aura was calm and peaceful, yet carried boundless vitality that purified and nourished all things, as if he was the embodiment of “life” in the fire. He was none other than the Fire Spirit Star Lord—Fire Spirit!
These two Lords of Fire, who were extremely famous throughout the universe, had actually appeared at the same time, and in this remote Demonic Sect ruin!
Upon seeing the two people appear, Ling Yan’s expression instantly became extremely complex, a mixture of surprise, admiration, and almost imperceptible tension.
He immediately sheathed his sword and bowed respectfully to the two men: “Ling Yan greets Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother!”
Li Huo Mojun’s Li Jin just glanced at Ling Yan indifferently, as if looking at an insignificant stranger, his voice was cold and dignified: “Junior Brother, this is none of your business, step back.”
These few simple words contained an undeniable tone of command.
Ling Yan’s body stiffened slightly, and he opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but under Li Jin’s indifferent yet pressing gaze, he finally let out a helpless sigh.
He quietly took a few steps back, no longer blocking David’s path, but he didn’t completely leave either.
The Fire Spirit Star Lord nodded slightly to Ling Yan in greeting, then his gaze fell on David, who was lying seriously injured and bound by the Soul Devouring Chains.
Especially when he sensed the faint yet extremely pure aura from the chaotic fire seed within his body, a glimmer of surprise flashed across his gentle eyes.
When Soul Devourer saw the two people suddenly come, his heart sank!
