Starting with the divine power of the Great Vajra, he traversed the heavens.

Chapter 427 Loulan Ancient City
Hearing Ding'an's shouts.

The little beggar stared intently at the Blue Moon Saint Lord with one eye, while glancing sideways at Ding An with the other.

"You bastard, I haven't even dealt with you yet! If I hadn't deliberately let people go back, would you not have come?"

Ding'an blushed slightly: "No, I didn't, I'm here now~"

"You still dare to quibble?"

"Hey, if you don't stop, I'm going to explode!"

The Blue Moon Saint Lord was furious: "You have no respect for people!" He mustered all his strength, and with a flick of his hands, two streams of energy appeared and condensed into two blue beast claws that attacked from both sides.

Hongxiu's eye suddenly sharpened, scanning back and forth like an eagle's, her figure shifting and vanishing in an instant.

Its claws were incredibly sharp. When it landed on the ground, with a loud bang, yellow sand erupted like a fountain, scattering everywhere.

Just then, a strange sound came from behind the Blue Moon Saint Lord, light and swift, approaching in an instant.

He turned and leaped forward, but Hongxiu's blade was even faster, slashing down in a flash.

Blue Moon Saint Lord raised his palm to meet the attack, his inner energy surging forth. Bang! Palm and blade collided, and he felt a torrent rush through his palm and straight to his wrist.

"Hmm~!"

The Blue Moon Saint Lord's heart pulse trembled even faster, and he quickly wrapped his arms around his chest to block it.

Hongxiu chuckled, clenched her left fist, and with a hum, the violent heartbeat within her body abruptly stopped.

Blue Moon Saint Lord's blood rushed to his head, and he vomited blood.

"Pfft!" Everyone's vision went black. Influenced by the "Heart-Sacrifice Style" of using one's own heart to influence others' hearts, they suddenly felt an indescribable pain in their chests, as if their hearts were being squeezed. Blood spurted from their mouths, and they almost died on the spot.

"Ouch~!"

Ding'an stumbled and fell to the ground.

Xue Xinnan also felt a tightness in his chest, but seeing his great enemy fall, he immediately mustered his remaining strength and thrust his sword forward.

Huai Kong was startled and shouted, "Watch out!"

As soon as he spoke, Ding Anyi slapped the ground with his hand.

air!
Suddenly, a thunderous roar was heard, and a circle appeared beneath Xue Xin's feet, as if gunpowder had exploded, sending up waves of sand.

"Ouch!" Xue Xin was hit by a sandstorm, her robes were torn to shreds, and she was sent flying backward in a spinning motion.

Juexin was utterly terrified and exclaimed, "What is this?"

"The Blade Emperor has two divine weapons!" Huai Mie said coldly, "One is his thick-backed blade, and the other is his 'Hidden Dragon' prosthetic arm."

"Hidden Dragon Prosthetic Arm?"

"That's right, the Hidden Dragon Prosthetic Arm is the best machine in the world!" Huai Kong said excitedly. "Even my Heavenly Sin would pale in comparison!"

Juexin's face was ashen, he seemed about to speak but then stopped, and thinking of all the miraculous things Ding'an Imperial Envoy Yishou had just done, his heart sank even further.

"Not good! The Three Fiends are indeed the greatest enemies of my Godless Palace! They are already so troublesome with just the Sword Immortal and the Sword Emperor. If the Sword God is added to the mix, I'm afraid even Father won't be able to stop them!"

"I must preserve my life and return to Japan to report the intelligence to my father! Our family alone can hardly deal with the three villains; we must involve the Emperor!"

"No, besides the Emperor, we can also try to win over the Hidden Sword School. I've long heard that Hayato Ten'in is a powerful and ruthless figure, but I don't know if his skills are up to par?"

Just as Juexin was deep in thought, a sudden change occurred in the scene.

Taking advantage of the Blue Moon Sect Master's shortness of breath, Hongxiu slashed horizontally with her demonic blade, the blade gleaming with intense blood-red light.

Seeing the tip of her knife trembling incessantly and hearing ghostly howls all around her, the Blue Moon Sect Master felt a chill run down her spine and quickly clasped her hands together.

howl!
The qi condensed once more into the shape of a crescent-shaped beast, its claws gripping the demonic blade.

"Ha, after using it so many times, do you really think my eyes are just for show?"

Suddenly, the little beggar let out a cold laugh, his left hand shot out, and he went straight for the center line. With a "thud," he punched the crescent-shaped beast in the chest, causing it to collapse!
Blue Moon Saint Lord never dreamed that his protective aura would be shattered! Suddenly feeling his chest being gripped, he groaned and wildly swung his palms to retaliate.

Bang bang bang, Hongxiu took several blows, her body swaying wildly from the impact.

But she just tilted her head, blew on her hair with a disdainful look, and sneered, "Old Deng, you're so boring!"

With a flick of his wrist, a knife came crashing down on his head.

"Ah~!"

Blue Moon Saint Lord's clothes were grabbed at the chest. Seeing the blade approaching, he had no way to escape and could only raise his hands and gather his inner energy to defend himself.

*Thud*, a "Sleeve Divine Blade" struck his left arm, causing his internal energy to dissipate, his bones to collapse, and his left arm to hang limply.

"Uh, ah!"

Blue Moon Saint Lord was filled with shock and anger. He landed on his feet, his stance sank, and he swung his right palm forcefully, throwing Hongxiu away. He couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of blood.

"Heh, Old Deng, it seems like you can't hurt me anymore."

With her eyes bloodshot, Hongxiu rolled once in mid-air before suddenly soaring into the sky and slashing down from above!
Seeing that this witch was unbreakable and indestructible, possessing a ruthless and demonic swordsmanship and a host of bizarre methods, the Blue Moon Saint Lord was filled with extreme fear. As the demonic blade slashed down again, he felt utterly helpless. But to save his life, he desperately raised his right hand, once again conjuring a crescent-shaped beast's claw to block the attack!

boom!
Blue Moon Saint Lord was like a nail, directly driven into the sand, burying his waist and abdomen.

Hongxiu wanted to press her advantage and use her dragging sword technique, but she heard a creaking sound. It turned out that Blue Moon Saint Lord was desperately using "Formless Yuan Qi Breaking" to save her life. The Crescent Moon Beast gripped the demonic sword tightly, preventing her from moving.

“A dying struggle.” Hongxiu sneered. “I told you, you’re weak.” With a slight effort, she pressed down on the demonic blade.

"Uh~ah!"

The Blue Moon Sect Master's face was contorted with rage. As the graceful yet sharp blade approached, he was terrified and could only scream and desperately try to stop it.

Just then, a "whoosh" sound was heard.

A small, fleshy black shadow leaped out of the sand, swung a club, and struck the Blue Moon Saint Lord on the head!
With a sharp crack, the Blue Moon Saint Lord was struck hard on the head. His protective aura instantly dissipated, he coughed up blood, his head was covered in yellow sand, and he vanished without a trace.

"Huh? Gun Gun!" Hongxiu said, hands on her hips, "Why did you hit him?"

"嘤嘤~"

Gun Gun pointed to the spot where the Blue Moon Saint Lord had disappeared, whimpering softly.

"Huh? What's wrong with Gun Gun?" Ding An asked, puzzled.

"I don't know, this little guy is cunning, has he discovered something?"

But after gesturing wildly for a while, the panda realized that the two were still confused, so it shrugged, drew a big circle with its paws, and put them on itself.

"I know!" Hongxiu exclaimed in sudden realization. "It's an expert at tomb raiding and treasure hunting. Does Gun Gun mean the giant tortoise shell is right under our feet?"

The panda was overjoyed and cried out softly.

"Wow, the ancient city of Loulan is right here?" Ding'an raised his eyebrows in surprise. "But how do we get in?" he said, looking at Hongxiu.

Hongxiu shrugged and looked at Gungun.

Rolling Bear's face fell, it sighed, put its paws on its hips, and with a hop on its short legs, its round body drew an arc before plunging headfirst into the spot where the Blue Moon Saint Lord had disappeared.

boom!
As if a switch had been flipped, the surrounding sand began to boil.

Suddenly, everyone lost their footing and cried out in alarm as they all fell into a deep abyss!
"Ah~!"

"Help!"

"Big brother, I don't want to die!"

Nobody wants to die!

"Ya Butterfly!"

"Hehe, this is so much fun!"

"嘤嘤~"

Exclamations of surprise filled the air. Although sandstorms were raging, just as they were falling into the abyss, dozens of feet deep, a flash of fire suddenly appeared!
Ding An raised his eagle-blade, flames illuminating the varied expressions on the faces of the crowd, and shouted, "Grab me!"

Upon seeing this, some people put their arms around her waist, while others hugged her legs.

Suddenly I felt a weight on my head, and it felt fluffy and chubby. It turned out that a baby was rolling on my head.

"Ring toss!" Ding An shouted, pressing his prosthetic hand down. A strange force immediately surged towards the ground, dozens of feet deep.

Suddenly, everyone realized that this power was no longer emanating from the human body, but rather like the vast supernatural power of a Buddha or demon. Under its influence, they were unable to resist, trembling like leaves, and almost simultaneously about to let go and fall.

"call"!
Everyone felt a chill spreading through them, and a gentle breeze swept over them, slowing their descent.

Then Ding'an, a burly man, floated down to the ground.

At this moment, the group didn't seem like enemies, but rather like a group of friends on an adventure.

When their feet touched the stone slabs, everyone was taken aback and looked at each other in silence.

In the midst of the silence, Hongxiu suddenly chuckled and said, "How much longer are you going to cling to Ding'an?"

Everyone then snapped out of their daze and hurriedly jumped off him.

Huai Kong quickly clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you so much, Sword Emperor, for saving my life!"

Ding An chuckled and said, "It's alright, it's alright."

Hongxiu picked up Gungun and, using Ding'an's fire knife as a reference, looked ahead.

The firelight stretched forward, illuminating a cave.

The cave walls are mostly made of rock, and in areas with more mud than stone, they are supported by stacked strips of bluestone, which look mottled and worn at first glance.

Hongxiu narrowed her eyes: "We've finally found the ancient city of Loulan."
