Chapter 1174: Great Revenge Achieved!

The two divine law forces intertwined, but it was not a simple one-plus-one-equals-two.

Xiao Huo was born from the Pure Sandalwood Fire Lotus, and the Pure Sandalwood Fire Lotus was Ye Yuan's second avatar.

Between Ye Yuan and Xiao Huo, they could be said to share one heart and mind.

The rhythm of their spellcasting was completely synchronized!

The two divine laws overlapped, amplifying each other, their power far exceeding that of a single divine law.

This sword strike was unimaginably powerful!

Ji Canglan's pupils contracted sharply; he wanted to flee but had no time to change his move.

With a clang, Ji Canglan's long sword was sent flying, knocked out of his hand.

Puchi!

The Evil-Slaying Divine Sword plunged fiercely into Ji Canglan's body, destroying his vitality!

The Evil-Slaying Divine Sword was inherently most effective against evil beings.

Xiao Huo's law of fire could also purify all things in the world.

This sword strike was nearly devastating to Ji Canglan!

Swoosh!

The moment the Evil-Slaying Sword pierced Ji Canglan's flesh, a wisp of black qi flew out from his crown and fled away.

The black qi was extremely fast, but before Ye Yuan, who knew the art of great teleportation, speed was futile.

Trying to leave?

Ye Yuan sneered coldly and instantly performed the great teleportation.

Without a physical body, how could Ji Canglan match Ye Yuan's speed?

One teleportation covered two thousand zhang!

The black qi had not fled far before Ye Yuan blocked its path.

Two zhang!

Sword Domain!

Ye Yuan had firmly locked onto the fleeing Ji Canglan!

At this moment, the edge of the Sword Domain was covered with a layer of pale white flames.

From afar, it looked like a ball of fire.

The murder of my father, the loss of my wife! Do you think I would let you escape?

Ye Yuan's voice seemed to come from the Nine Nether, icy and bone-chilling.

Over twenty years of hatred all erupted at this moment.

In these short twenty-plus years, what Ye Yuan thought about day and night was revenge!

For this goal, Ye Yuan had faced countless brushes with death.

From a carefree young master devoted to the Dao, he became a determined and powerful martial artist.

The transformation he underwent was no small matter.

Now, it was finally within reach.

Qingyun, we were after all fellow disciples! And I didn't kill your wife; she's not dead!

In truth, Ji Canglan didn't know whether Yue Mengli was dead or not.

But now, to save his life, he naturally insisted she wasn't dead.

Only then would he have a chance to live.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Ye Yuan's expression changed, and he said, "Where is Li'er!"

First let me leave, or else you'll never see her again!" Ji Canglan threatened.

Ye Yuan sneered, "Do you think you have the right to bargain with me?"

Why not? My good junior brother, I know you too well! I know you will let me go, right? You couldn't even bring yourself to kill those demonized former fellow disciples; would you kill me for the one you love?

Ji Canglan looked confident; he knew Ye Yuan too well.

That Ye Yuan had acknowledged Yue Mengli as his fiancée showed he deeply loved her.

Given Ye Yuan's loyal and affectionate nature, he absolutely wouldn't dare kill him.

This... was his final bargaining chip, and the heaviest one.

Because Ye Yuan would surely comply!

Do you think I would believe you? If you had Li'er, would you have waited until now?" Ye Yuan was not easily fooled and sneered.

Ji Canglan was unhurried and sneered in return, "Do you think I would hide the little girl from the Yue family here? To me, she is not just a get-out-of-jail-free card! The Son of Fate, to break your fate, the Yue girl is the key! Earlier, I deliberately spread news of her death to make you fall into demonic possession, but you managed to pull through! Now, she is my get-out-of-jail-free card. If you don't believe me, go ahead and strike; you'll become the indirect cause of her death."

Ye Yuan hesitated!

Even if he didn't believe Ji Canglan's words at all, he dared not take that risk!

Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, Ye Yuan could not gamble with Yue Mengli's life.

This was something he, Ye Yuan, could not do.

If Yue Mengli died because of him, what use would revenge be?

Seeing Ye Yuan's expression, Ji Canglan rejoiced inwardly and pressed his advantage, "Don't doubt it. With her strength, do you think she could escape my encirclement? You've seen Blood Rain's power. Do you think the Yue girl could escape from him?"

Ye Yuan frowned; this time, he was truly shaken.

According to his estimation, even if Li'er had made rapid progress, she couldn't be a match for Blood Rain.

Thus, the possibility Ji Canglan mentioned greatly increased.

I can let you go, but I want to see Li'er!" Ye Yuan said coldly.

Ji Canglan said calmly, "The Yue girl has been escorted to the Divine Martial Hall. My physical body is destroyed, so the Divine Martial Hall must already know. If I don't return within three days, the Yue girl will surely die. You have no choice!"

Ji Canglan was speaking off the cuff, but he sounded convincing.

He was inherently cunning, and even Ye Yuan found it hard to see through his lies.

Finally, Ye Yuan slowly opened the Sword Domain, and the stirring pale white flames gradually extinguished.

Seeing this, Ji Canglan was ecstatic inside but showed no fluctuation.

Hahaha... My good junior brother, we'll meet again!

Ji Canglan laughed triumphantly, and the wisp of black qi turned into a streak of light, heading toward the horizon.

But at that moment, a graceful figure gradually appeared in Ye Yuan's line of sight from another direction!

Brother Yuan! Are you alright!

This figure was none other than Yue Mengli, who had rushed over, travel-worn.

The ones who know you best in the world are your enemy and the one you love!

Seeing the devastation in Bright Moon City and Scorching Sun City, Yue Mengli immediately knew that Ye Yuan must have come to seek revenge on Ji Canglan.

Under such circumstances, Ye Yuan almost had no other choice!

So Yue Mengli rushed over without stopping.

Almost at the same time, both Ye Yuan and Ji Canglan spotted Yue Mengli!

Ji Canglan was terrified out of his wits, driving his demonic qi to the limit, trying to escape Ye Yuan's range.

Ye Yuan also shuddered and, almost without thinking, unleashed the Angry Sword Fire Lotus!

Chi...

A lotus-shaped pale white sword qi streaked across the sky, flying straight toward Ji Canglan.

No matter how fast Ji Canglan was, how could he match this sword qi that tore through the air?

Ah... Ji Qingyun, you will come to no good end!

A piercing scream echoed across the sky, gradually fading into nothingness.

The righteous sword qi of the Evil-Slaying Sword and the purifying power of the Pure Sandalwood Sacred Fire burned the black qi completely to ashes!

The once-arrogant Ji Canglan finally died under Ye Yuan's sword.
