Xian Ni: The God of Killing Returns, Marries Li Muwan at the Beginning

Li Muwan gently stroked the strings of the zither with her fingertips. Upon hearing the news that Li Qiqing and Huanglong Zhenren were safe and sound, the worry between her brows eased somewhat.

Li Muwan picked up her teacup and took a sip, saying gently, "Thank you for taking care of Vermilion Bird Star all this time, senior. I also thank my brother and master. I will definitely thank you all properly when my husband returns."

Reggie waved his hand, his tone cheerful: "Mistress, you're too kind. Protecting Vermilion Bird Star is our responsibility."

"Besides, our master has been incredibly kind to us. Even without this entrustment, we would do everything in our power to protect this place."

As the two were talking, a piercing gust of wind suddenly came from outside the pavilion. The once azure sky was now covered by dark clouds, and purplish-black lightning surged within the thick clouds, making the air seem stagnant.

Li Muwan's heart tightened. Just as she was about to get up, she heard a series of booming sounds coming from afar, as if a huge object was crashing into the protective array.

"what happened?"

Reggie suddenly stood up, his demonic energy surging instantly. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes as he angrily said, "The Star-Protecting Array was personally set up by the master. Ordinary cultivators simply cannot break it!"

Before the words were finished, a sharp sound of air being torn apart came from the clouds. Immediately afterwards, a pale pink light blade tore through the dark clouds and slashed fiercely at the protective array of Vermilion Bird Star.

The array's light flickered violently, rippling outwards. A cold voice rang out from outside the array, filled with undisguised killing intent: "Lin Che, you brat! Come out and face your death! You destroyed my lineage back then, and today I will raze your Vermilion Bird Star to the ground and let you taste the bitterness of being betrayed and abandoned by everyone!"

Li Muwan's face turned pale, and her hand holding the zither strings trembled slightly. This voice clearly belonged to a powerful expert at the Void Profound Realm.

Reggie stood protectively in front of Li Muwan, his demonic energy condensing into a shield, and said in a deep voice, "Mistress, don't panic, I'll go and deal with her!"

As she spoke, she was about to rush out of the attic, but Li Muwan stopped her.

"Senior, please wait." Li Muwan took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, and said with a solemn expression, "This person has reached the late stage of the Void Profound Realm. Although you are strong, you may not be his match."

"Besides, since my husband is not here, we need to stabilize the situation first, and then send a message to ask our master and brother to come and provide support."

At this moment, seeing no one respond, the Daoist Master Miaoyin outside the formation grew even angrier. Countless pink sonic blades condensed at his fingertips and rained down on the formation like a storm: "Lin Che! What are you hiding for? Are you too afraid to come out and see me? Or have you already become a stray dog, unable to even protect your own territory?"

The light of the great formation grew dimmer and dimmer, and cracks spread across its walls.

Reggie stared at the pink figure outside the formation and gritted his teeth, saying, "Mistress, the formation will break if we wait any longer! I'll go out and buy some time. Please send a message quickly!"

Li Muwan nodded, her fingertips gathering spiritual power. Just as she was about to crush the communication jade slip, she saw the Myriad Sounds Daoist outside the formation suddenly stop attacking. Her pink eyes swept over Vermilion Bird Star, filled with a hint of doubt and resentment.

"Wait... there's no trace of Lin Che on this planet! He's not here?"

Miaoyin Daozun snorted coldly, his fingertips tracing across the void, a sound wave sweeping across the entire Vermilion Bird Star. After confirming that there was no spiritual energy fluctuation from Lin Che, his expression became even more unpleasant.

"He got away fast! But now that I'm here, I won't leave empty-handed. People of Vermilion Bird Star, die in Lin Che's place!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sonic waves around Daoist Miaoyin surged, as if he intended to forcefully break through the great formation and slaughter the cultivators of Vermilion Bird Star.

Looking at the shattered array before her, Li Muwan instantly appeared in the air, staring at the Myriad Sounds Daoist Venerable whose cultivation had reached the mid-stage of the Void Profound Realm.

“Senior, I am Li Muwan, a cultivator from Vermilion Bird Star. I wonder what you wish to do? When has Vermilion Bird Star ever offended you?” Daoist Miaoyin rested her chin on her hand, looked at the graceful Li Muwan in front of her, and sneered, “Blame that brat Lin Che. He escaped by chance back then, but now his whereabouts are unknown. I will not raise a tiger to cause trouble.”

“Husband…” Li Muwan gripped her hand tightly, her voice filled with anger, “What have you done to my husband?”

"So Lin Che is your husband, hehehe. Perfect. From now on, you will be my maid. Serve me well in the future, and I may consider making you my concubine."

"presumptuous!"

Reggie's roar exploded first, and the demonic energy around him instantly condensed into a giant claw that blotted out the sky, grabbing fiercely at the Myriad Sounds Daoist.

Already enraged by the other party's threats, Li Muwan was even more furious upon hearing the filthy words of her concubine, forgetting even the difference in their cultivation levels.

"You dare to disrespect the mistress! Today, even if it costs me my demonic body, I will make you pay the price!"

A hint of disdain flashed in the eyes of the Daoist Master Miaoyin. With a flick of his finger, a pink sound wave transformed into a sharp blade, precisely striking the demonic claw.

With a crack, the giant claw formed from demonic energy shattered instantly, and the aftershocks forced Reggie to stagger backward, black blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"You, a mere old demon in the Shattered Nirvana stage, dare to swagger in front of me?"

Miaoyin Daozun sneered, her gaze returning to Li Muwan. Her tone was mocking as she said with a smile, "So what if she's Lin Che's wife? She's just a weak woman who relies on a man."

"Behave yourself, and I might still give you some face; otherwise..."

Before he finished speaking, pale golden flames suddenly ignited around Li Muwan, and twelve pill patterns slowly unfolded behind her. A rich medicinal fragrance instantly filled the air, even overpowering the sonic aura of the Myriad Sounds Daoist.

Although Li Muwan's cultivation level was only at the early stage of Shattered Nirvana, as a 12th-grade alchemist, the alchemical fire around her contained a purifying power that even Void Profound cultivators would be wary of.

"She's actually a 12th-grade alchemist! Hahaha, I've really struck gold today! My little lady, you're mine now."

Miaoyin Daozun stood up excitedly, licked his lips, as if he couldn't wait to cultivate with Li Muwan and obtain the purest energy in her body.

"If you wish to touch the Vermilion Bird Star, you must first get past me."

Li Muwan's voice was soft, but it carried an undeniable firmness as she angrily said, "Even though my husband is not here, every inch of land on Vermilion Bird Star and every cultivator there is not someone you can bully at will!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of spiritual energy fluctuations suddenly came from afar, and two figures appeared on the horizon.

Master Huanglong held a whisk, his body surrounded by immortal energy; Li Qiqing, clad in the armor of the Alliance Leader, was followed by hundreds of Vermilion Bird Star cultivators, who arrived with imposing momentum.

"Venerable Daoist Miaoyin, you've actually come to Vermilion Bird Star in my realm...!"

Master Huanglong's voice was filled with anger as he pointed at the other party and said, "You dare to trespass on my Vermilion Bird Star and be disrespectful to my disciple's wife? Do you really think there's no one on my Vermilion Bird Star?"

Li Qiqing directly unleashed his magic weapon, a golden light slashing towards Daoist Miaoyin: "Release my sister! Otherwise, you won't leave Vermilion Bird Star today!" (End of Chapter)
