Chapter 689 Simultaneous Actions 2
Lu Zhihui now regretted making the deal with Yun Po. Looking at the inner perimeter, which had been almost razed to the ground, his expression was far from pleasant.

Yun Po stood beside Lu Zhihui, smiling obsequiously, and said:
"Fellow Daoist Lu, rest assured, after we defeat the evil cultivator, we will definitely restore this place to its original state."

He hadn't expected the evil cultivator to be so ruthless, actually breaking through the isolation array that Yunxi had set up as a pretense by self-destructing. Fortunately, Yunxi reacted quickly and immediately opened the barrier, otherwise the residual force of the self-destruction would have spread outwards.

Lu Zhihui knew that this was no longer a matter of simply stopping. Since evil cultivators were involved, even if he didn't offer assistance, he couldn't afford to hinder the human cultivators. He could only say with a dark face:
You'd better keep your word!

"sure!"

Yunpo immediately smiled ingratiatingly, then added a reminder:
"Fellow Daoist Lu, the commotion here is quite loud. Should we try to calm the startled beasts in the mountains to prevent an accidental outbreak of a beast tide?"

This time, Lu Zhihui took Yun Po's reminder to heart. He nodded slightly and then slipped away from where he stood.

Yun Po then turned his attention to the barrier, where Yun Xi was already engaged in combat with Han Qingwen.

Within the boundary

Yunxi gripped the Seven Star Deadly Staff and said coldly:
"Master Han, you're not a very ethical person. Why are you resorting to stalking?"

If Han Qingwen still didn't realize he'd fallen into a trap, then he'd been the master of the building for nothing. A dark glint flashed across his face, and he said viciously:

"How dare you play tricks on me!"

Yunxi curled her lips into a mocking smile:

"Hmph! It's just a matter of reciprocity. You're already trying to implant evil seeds into my body, it would be foolish not to resist."

Han Qingwen's eyes flashed. He was now certain that Jin Xiu and the other two had been exposed from the very beginning. However, he couldn't figure out how they had found out, since he had never failed before.

Yunxi could roughly guess what the other party was thinking, so she continued to provoke him:

"From the moment I stepped into the Cloud Ascension Tower, I smelled that nauseating odor, that smell that belongs exclusively to evil cultivators. All your little tricks are like monkey shows to me."

"you shut up!"

Han Qingwen considered himself to be very good at maintaining his composure, but he was still provoked by Yun Xi. He roared and slashed at Yun Xi with a black-backed longsword.

A massive black blade shadow descended towards Yunxi's head like lightning, clearly aiming to kill her in one strike. However, the attack was intercepted by a black staff gleaming with a purplish-gold luster. The purple lightning wrapped around the staff even climbed onto the blade, attempting to shatter the blade shadow.

Han Qingwen gripped the black-backed longsword, staring intently at the illusory image of the sword and staff. After a moment, the sword's shadow was shattered by the staff.

A look of realization flashed in his eyes, and he slowly began to speak:

"You are Wei Yunxi from the Weiyu Realm! No wonder, Xi Yun is Yunxi, I should have realized it sooner!"

Yunxi twirled the stick in a flourish before speaking:

"Oh? Am I that famous? Even you know me!"

At this moment, Han Qingwen's aura surged, and he said fiercely:

"It's because of you that we couldn't get back the most important body of the evil god. You deserve to die!"

After saying that, he transformed into a cloud of black mist and rushed towards Yunxi. Yunxi did not expect that the evil cultivator hated her so much, but her reaction was quick. A "thunderous strike" fell with the swing of the Seven Star Deadly Staff, and the entire barrier instantly turned into a sea of ​​lightning, causing the other low-level evil cultivators of Dengyun Tower to be struck down to the ground, wailing in pain.

Yunxi quickly made a hand seal and took the opportunity to activate the last array plate. Once all nine array plates were activated, they quickly connected together to form a simplified version of the "Heavenly Dipper Demon-Slaying Array".

Before Han Qingwen, who was under pressure, could rush to Yun Xi, his black aura was shattered by the purple lightning, revealing his deformed and ferocious face.

Yunxi's eyes flashed, and with a flick of her long staff, she flung a Dengyun Tower disciple toward Han Qingwen. The disciple, thinking it was a sneak attack by Yunxi, cleaved the man in two with a single strike, not even managing to free his nascent soul.

With the blessing of the Wind Spirit Root, Yun Xi swiftly teleported and threw three more Dengyun Tower disciples over, not forgetting to openly sow discord:

"Open your eyes wide and see clearly, everyone. Your companions did not die at my hands, but at the hands of your beloved Master Han. What is the point of you fighting to the death against me? In the end, you are nothing but pawns, unable to even keep your current physical form."

"you shut up!"

Han Qingwen didn't really care about the lives of those low-level evil cultivators, but what he thought and what he said couldn't be the same. Otherwise, who would be willing to risk their lives for him in the future? So when Yun Xi threw the suppressed Dengyun Tower disciples at him as hidden weapons, he could only wave his hand and put them beside him.

"Wei Yunxi, don't even think about sowing discord. For the return of the evil god, we are all willing to give everything."

"Hmph! Easier said than done."

This time, Yunxi sent Jin Xiu flying with a single blow, her target still Han Qingwen.

Han Qingwen unleashed a burst of evil energy, pulling Jin Xiu aside to prevent him from getting in the way.

"Thank you, host!"

Jin Xiu thanked him gratefully, but the next moment he self-destructed his nascent soul. The huge explosion affected Han Qingwen, shattering his protective aura. The next instant, the "Ice Soul Frost Cicada," enveloped in a ball of purple flames, quickly burrowed into Han Qingwen's body.

Once Yunxi was certain that Ziyan had succeeded, she flashed away from her spot and exited the barrier. At the same time, she quickly began to form hand seals, casting the "Heavenly Dipper Northern Dipper Extermination Array" into the ground where Han Qingwen and the other Dengyun Tower disciples were standing. The huge array wheel emitted a shimmering white light, and only then did it truly begin to operate. There was only one goal: to exterminate evil!

Han Qingwen knew things were going to be bad when he realized Jin Xiu had self-destructed. He tried to teleport away, but the array above his head suppressed him tightly unless he could suppress his evil aura, but it was obviously too late.

After his protective aura was broken, a ball of purple flame entered his body. When it met the evil energy within him, it was like a drop of water falling into a boiling oil pan; his meridians were instantly ruptured.

After Han Qingwen spat out a mouthful of blood, the purple flame surged through his meridians like a hot knife through butter, heading straight for his dantian. Immediately afterward, the "Heavenly Dipper Demon-Slaying Formation" descended swiftly, trapping him tightly.

Han Qingwen had never felt so frustrated. With his last breath, he cursed:
"Wei Yunxi, I curse you."

Yun Xi didn't want to be cursed by the evil cultivator, so she sped up her hand seals and said to Yun Po beside her:
"Hurry up and get your little one moving. I don't want to be cursed by an evil cultivator."

Yun Po chuckled, a deep icy blue glint flashing in his eyes. The next instant, Han Qingwen felt a sharp pain in his soul. He clutched his head, fell face down on the ground, and lost consciousness. He never had the chance to utter the remaining curse.

Yunxi quickened the speed of her hand seals. Han Qingwen was invaded by the "Ice Soul Cold Cicada," and the remaining evil cultivators were no longer a threat. However, it was likely that none of these people would be able to leave the Wolong Mountains alive.

Just as Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief, a long cry broke the brief silence.

Yunxi and Yunpo turned to look at the source of the sound, only to see Lu Zhihui transform into his original form and emerge from the shadows.
