Goddess Atlas, Starting from the Queen

Chapter 154 Just as she thought, Lu Ming is indeed an evil cultivator.
As soon as Xiao Qingyun finished speaking, Zheng Kun, who had fallen on the training ground of the Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion, jumped up instantly. However, he did not rush straight to Shen Hongfei.

As if sensing something, Zheng Kun's gaze searched around the Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion, and soon his eyes landed on Lu Ming on the roof.

The moment he saw Lu Ming, his blood surged again, and he rushed straight towards Lu Ming. Seeing this, Shen Hongfei's expression changed drastically.

Although he didn't care about the life or death of the Prince of Xiaoyao, if the evil spirits killed or injured the Prince of Xiaoyao in front of him, someone in the court would definitely impeach him. He didn't want to give up his position so quickly.

At this moment, Shen Hongfei felt like cursing. Why was this carefree king standing so high up? Was he afraid that evil spirits wouldn't see him?

The fact that the evil spirit has been standing at the entrance of the Prince of Xiaoyao's mansion for so long proves that it is clearly planning to attack the mansion, specifically targeting the Prince of Xiaoyao. Instead of finding a place to hide, it has run to such an obvious spot to stand.

He and the person possessed by the evil spirit were both grandmasters, and that person was so close to the carefree king. If he were at his normal speed, he definitely wouldn't be able to make it in time. Shen Hongfei didn't hesitate at all and directly burned his blood and qi.

The next moment, Shen Hongfei's body turned into a blur and instantly appeared in Zheng Kun's path.

Upon seeing someone blocking his way, Zheng Kun's body erupted with a burst of black and red evil energy, and then he slapped Shen Hongfei with a claw.

Shen Hongfei quickly drew his sword to defend, but to his surprise, Zheng Kun's strength had undergone a tremendous change.

When the broadsword in his hand collided with Zheng Kun's hand, a metallic clanging sound instantly rang out. Immediately afterwards, Zheng Kun raised his other hand, forming a claw, and then suddenly grabbed at Shen Hongfei.

Shen Hongfei's expression changed drastically. He had already exerted all his strength to block Zheng Kun's hand with one hand. If another hand came down, he definitely wouldn't be able to stop it. Besides, he wasn't possessed by any evil spirit and didn't have such a tough body. If that claw landed on him, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Shen Hongfei quickly sheathed his knife, trying to dodge Zheng Kun's claws. However, Zheng Kun suddenly accelerated, and before Shen Hongfei could react, he was sent flying by Zheng Kun's claws.

Seeing this, the other commanders of the Zhenling Guard immediately surrounded Zheng Kun and attacked him together. They knew that the bronze sword was no longer effective against Zheng Kun, so they all chose to use their own swords or daggers.

However, these Zhenling Guard commanders were no match for Zheng Kun after he went berserk. Zheng Kun rushed over and blasted all of them away in no time.

Soon, one by one, the Zhenling Guards fell to the ground, unable to get up. However, this bought Shen Hongfei a lot of time. Shen Hongfei got up from the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and said coldly, "You wretch, today I will surely kill you!"

Since joining the Zhenling Guard, Shen Hongfei had had a smooth journey and had never encountered such a powerful evil spirit before, nor had he ever been in such a sorry state. At this moment, Shen Hongfei was extremely angry.

He couldn't believe that a Grandmaster-level Spirit Guardian like himself couldn't handle a Grandmaster possessed by evil spirits.

Shen Hongfei burned his blood and qi again, and his body once again turned into a blur and rushed straight towards Zheng Kun. Just then, a visible black shadow appeared on Zheng Kun's back.

Shen Hongfei was overjoyed, thinking that the evil spirit possessing Zheng Kun had sensed the danger and wanted to leave Zheng Kun's body.

Once the evil spirit leaves the body of the possessed being, the specially made bronze weapons of the Spirit Suppressor can greatly suppress it.

However, Lu Ming, standing on the rooftop, had already noticed something amiss. After the dark figure materialized, Zheng Kun's life force was rapidly draining away. Clearly, this evil spirit was fighting desperately, frantically consuming Zheng Kun's life force to enhance his strength.

Shen Hongfei only consumed his Qi and blood. Although his strength would drop significantly for a long time after losing Qi and blood, he could replenish it later as long as the consumption was not excessive.

However, vitality is different. Martial artists are not immortals and cannot increase their lifespan by cultivating immortality. Once vitality is consumed, it is very difficult to replenish it.

The next moment, Shen Hongfei appeared in front of Zheng Kun again. Just as he was about to use his sword technique again, Zheng Kun suddenly unleashed countless claws, each containing blood-red true energy. Shen Hongfei hurriedly swung his sword to block, but Zheng Kun's attack speed was too fast. In addition, the evil spirit at this time did not care about Zheng Kun's life at all, and frantically burned his life force.

In a short while, Shen Hongfei was sent flying backward again. This time, the evil spirit did not immediately rush towards Lu Ming. It seemed to understand that as long as it did not kill the person in front of it, this person would keep coming out to stop it.

Seeing that it was about time, Lu Ming prepared to make his move, but the next moment, Shen Hongfei stood up from the ground, his true energy surging.

He kept swinging his knife at Zheng Kun, but Zheng Kun didn't stop him. Instead, he charged directly at Shen Hongfei.

As soon as the two came into close contact, Zheng Kun suddenly grabbed the knife in Shen Hongfei's hand with one hand and then stabbed Shen Hongfei's body with his severed palm.

Shen Hongfei's expression changed drastically. Before he could react, Zheng Kun's severed palm was like a sharp sword that pierced through Shen Hongfei's protective aura and penetrated his heart.

Before he died, Shen Hongfei lowered his head slightly, his pupils contracted, and he looked at his heart in disbelief.

Zheng Kun quickly withdrew his severed hand and then charged towards Lu Ming again.

Seeing that Shen Hongfei had been killed, Lu Ming frowned. He had originally planned to take action, but he did not expect this to happen so suddenly.

At this time, Zheng Kun's body was aging at a visible rate, gradually turning into the appearance of an old man.

Without further hesitation, Lu Ming took out the Demon Suppression Tower and simultaneously circulated the Demon Suppression Heart Sutra.

Seeing the Demon-Suppressing Tower emanating black energy in Lu Ming's hand, Xiao Qingyun was slightly taken aback. This small tower gave her a very bad feeling, causing her to feel a sense of unease. She felt as if this thing was drawing away her soul, as if it would suck her soul in at any moment.

Just as she suspected, Lu Ming was indeed an evil cultivator, possessing even such a malevolent magical artifact.

While Xiao Qingyun was distracted, Lu Ming directly activated the Demon Suppression Tower with his spiritual energy.

The next moment, the Demon Suppression Tower flew directly towards Zheng Kun. When the humanoid black mist behind Zheng Kun saw the small tower, it seemed as if it had seen some great terror, and it struggled incessantly, as if it wanted to break free from Zheng Kun's body and escape.

Seeing this, Lu Ming was slightly taken aback. He had already sensed the fear in the evil spirit through the "Spiritual Rhinoceros Technique". The evil spirit seemed to be trying to escape, but it seemed unable to break free from the body of the person it possessed.

If an evil spirit possesses someone, can't it break free from that person at any time?
