Chapter 33 part 2

Ling Xi was puzzled. She looked at Cang Yu and then looked at Nan Zhi. Both faces were cold like frost.

“Ling Xi is Cang Yu’s disciple of the 397^th generation. Can you let her return to this disciple?” Although, Cang Yu’s voice was still cold, he was still very polite.

“Can’t,” Nan Zhi answered flatly.

Zhuge Xu who had been watching quietly on the sidelines suddenly stepped forward and sneered, “I think that your dear disciple is obviously a gang with this devil! And you still call the devil as revered master? Could it be that you want to follow him in the devilish ways?!”

Cang Yu’s complexion was ashen.

Ling Xi didn’t want to see Cang Yu being humiliated and also didn’t want to hear Nan Zhi being called devil. She struggled once again without success. With a bit of anger, she said, “Nan Zhi! Let me go!”

Nan Zhi frowned before he slowly let her down.

Only when Ling Xi landed did she understood why the two parties (demons & immortals) suddenly stopped fighting, why everyone looked at Nan Zhi with fear and why Cang Yu swept behind Nan Zhi first.

Behind him, densely packed…weren’t black clouds of devils but devilish beings that had already attained their forms. Each one looked malevolent and was ferocious-looking like ghosts. They all had different shape that looked like demons. The only thing that they had in common was that they stood obediently behind Nan Zhi and didn’t dare to step over any bounds. They looked at him with reverence.

Devil…

When Ling Xi thought about what Zhuge Xu said just now, she turned numb. Cold sweat oozed from her body again.

“Ling Xi! Come here quickly!” Qing Kui urged again.

“Haha…” Behind Qing Feng was a large number of demons. She laughed alluringly, “The shame of Cangjia Mountain…I’m afraid you can’t hide it any longer today, right? Master?”

She raised an eyebrow and looked at Cang Yu. She was very pleased with herself.

Cang Yu frowned. She continued, “Cangjia’s Mountain most prided high-tiered deity Nan Zhi. The high-tiered deity Nan Zhi who ascended to god in just a hundred years (after becoming an immortal) is also the high-tiered deity Nan Zhi who had fallen into the devilish ways! Master, how interesting, right?”

Cang Yu’s expression was ashen and looked very terrible.

Ling Xi still didn’t understand. It had also been a short while since she reunited with Nan Zhi. She still didn’t have the time to ask how Nan Zhi got another body and was pressed at the bottom of Huomai Peak…

She remembered that Qing Kui mentioned to her that Cangjia once had a high-tiered deity that was also called Nan Zhi. However, what did that “Nan Zhi” had to do with the Nan Zhi in front of her? Even if there was a relationship, what did Nan Zhi had to do with falling in the devilish ways?

Her thoughts were a mess. Ling Xi heard a low voice in the bottom of his heart, “Kill him.”

It was Cang Yu’s voice.

Ling Xi’s heart skipped a beat. She felt like she stepped into air with one foot and fell from great height. She shook her head and quickly backed away but her wrist had been grabbed by Nan Zhi.

“Kill him!” Cang Yu shouted again in her heart.

Ling Xi still shook her head and wanted to shake off Nan Zhi’s hand. “Nan Zhi, let go of me.”

She said that as calmly as possible.

Cang Yu’s voice was still repeating in her heart, “Getting rid of devils to defend the traditional values is your duty. Kill the devil king!”

“Let me go, Nan Zhi!” In fact, Ling Xi wanted to shout that Nan Zhi was not a devil and even more not a devil king!

Nan Zhi still didn’t let go. He pulled hard and Ling Xi fell into his arms.

Ling Xi’s mind was still in a chaos. She didn’t want to disobey master’s order and she didn’t want to hurt Nan Zhi again. However, she saw that Bingling sword on her waist floated from her waist out of her control and stabbed at Nan Zhi full of murderous intent.

She got anxious and quickly grabbed the sword and wanted to throw it away. Unexpectedly, the always obedient Bingling sword got a power out of nowhere and went forward with her (LX).

Everything happened in just a blink of an eye. The sharp Bingling sword stabbed straight into the heart.

The sound of flesh and blood cracking like thunder in her ears.

Ling Xi held the sword handle stiffly and looked up at Nan Zhi’s black clothes stained with blood. He didn’t even frown, but the broken things in his eyes made Ling Xi’s heart ache so much that she could hardly breathe.

The devils behind him began to clamor angrily but they didn’t move without his command. Ling Xi’s hand that held the sword released as if it had been burned. She fell on the ground weakly.

Nan Zhi’s murderous aura brought the violent wind of Cangjia Mountain as if the night had shrouded the mountain.

His black hair floated and with a turn of his body a black fog at his fingertips went straight at Cang Yu.

Cang Yu’s expression changed greatly. In a hurry, he blocked it with a seal made with Qingxu staff. Nan Zhi’s mouth twitched slightly as if he was mocking. His fingertip moved slightly. The black fog became as thick as ink and broke through the seal with irresistible momentum. It was about to swallow Cang Yu in the next moment.

“Supremo!” Everyone shouted.

“Nan Zhi, don’t!” Ling Xi also shouted in panic.

Nan Zhi frowned. His fingertip stiffened. When the black fog was about to touch Cang Yu, it disappeared.

Everyone let out a sigh from relief. The fear on Ling Xi’s face hasn’t dissipated yet when Nan Zhi turned and looked at her. It was during this turn that Cang Yu quickly chanted a spell and aimed accurately at his back.

Nan Zhi’s whole body shivered. Almost without hesitating, his hand turned and knocked Cang Yu down to the ground with one blow. Cang Yu spit out a few mouthfuls of blood.

The disciples of Cangjia showed a terrified expression. More felt indignant. They attacked Nan Zhi at the same time. The devilish aura was very visible on Nan Zhi. The black robe floated with the strong wind. With one hand, he swept across the disciples and they fell on the ground. Qing Kui, Qing Lian, Qing Nian and the elders couldn’t bear it anymore and also launched attacks, but they were easily blocked by Nan Zhi.

The aura on his body was getting darker and heavier. His eyes were impenetrable. Fresh blood dripped down from the Bingling sword in his chest. He didn’t seem to feel the pain. Both hands accumulated energy. He didn’t spare no efforts and slashed towards those people.

The black blow caused by the palm was full of murderous intent. No matter who touched it would presumably go to the Western Paradise. However, that blow of the palm that was about to fell to the ground stopped in the air.

• The Western Paradise is the destination of the deceased.

Don’t know when, but Ling Xi appeared in front of that person. She spread her arms. Tears kept flowing. She shook her head and cried, “Nan Zhi…they are my junior uncles, senior brothers and sister.”

The bloodiness faded away in Nan Zhi’s eyes. It was replaced by coldness that could penetrate through the bones and some invisible loneliness. He stared at Ling Xi’s tearful eyes, but his face was still firm and he suddenly laughed.

For so many years, Nan Zhi had only laughed a few times, but it had always been warm. However, this time, it let Ling Xi feel painful like her heart was being bitten by insects and ants.

“They…are all more important than me.”

Whether it was two years ago or the today of two years later, there were always people more important than him in her heart.

Nan Zhi pulled Bingling sword from his chest with one hand and threw it on the ground. Blood spattered on Ling Xi’s face. It felt warm.

“Nan Zhi…”

Ling Xi wanted to hold him, but her fingers only brushed his sleeves. The sleeves turned into a cloud of black fog together with that person and flew away. The devilish beings that were behind him also turned into black fogs and disappeared with him.

“Offending the devil king. I will wait for a good show! Haha…”

Qing Feng also left with the group of demons. In a moment, the calmness returned to Cangjia, but it no longer had the vitality of before.
