I flew on a sword at the magic academy

However, when faced with the Seven Killing Curse that everyone avoided like the plague, City Lord Nangong simply raised his hand and swallowed it directly with the Devouring Heaven Vessel.

This extremely malevolent and ominous object is almost impossible to counter, and the Devouring Heaven Vessel can devour and devour anything, so using it to devour the Seven Killings Curse is the most suitable solution at present.

At this moment, the other four living dead were all unable to remain calm. They never expected that the City Lord Nangong, who had endured half a lifetime of suffering in such a harsh environment as Wuji Mountain, would still possess such terrifying divine power.

"He didn't truly live a second life. His divine power is limited. Let's all attack together. I refuse to believe we can't kill him!" one of the living dead shouted, but no one paid him any attention.

Nourished by numerous ancient medicines and having stolen the life force of heaven and earth by a sage, although he did not truly live a second life, the physical functions of Lord Nangong City have now reached their peak. Whoever attacks him will die!

"Hey kid over there, are those two Supreme Saint Weapons you're holding just scrap metal? Can't they be of any use?" One of the living dead turned his attention to the peerless expert in the distance who wielded two Supreme Saint Weapons.

"I need to suppress the Supreme God's Cry of the Nangong family, I can't spare any more time!" the peerless expert replied with a stern face.

The other two people who were traveling with him had already died at the hands of Lord Nangong. If he also died, what would happen to the two supreme holy weapons in his possession?

He was looking for an opportunity to escape.

Having witnessed the situation unfold to this point, he knew there was no chance left. If he couldn't escape Tai'an City as soon as possible, he would surely suffer the same fate as the previous two, and the two supreme holy weapons in his possession would fall into the hands of others.

It doesn't matter if he dies, but the ultimate sacred weapon must not be lost.

Lord Nangong's expression was indifferent, showing no change in emotion. The aura that emanated naturally from within was like an overwhelming force. With each step he took forward, the others involuntarily took a step back, truly intimidated.

"Sizzle," "Sizzle," "Sizzle"...

Just then, thousands of dazzling sword beams appeared around the Lord of Nangong City, like a cascading galaxy. A chilling aura of killing intent permeated the entire Tai'an City through the spatial barrier, making everyone feel icy cold.

With a flash of light, Lord Nangong appeared in front of a living dead, grabbing the living dead by the neck with one hand.

These living dead have no physical bodies; their souls reside only in a skeleton. At this moment, the city lord of Nangong is holding them by the neck and lifting them into the air. As they struggle, all the bones in their bodies are cracking.

"Nangong Ce..."

The living person wanted to separate the soul, but failed.

Without uttering a word, the City Lord of Nangong vibrated his fingers, forcefully tearing the skull off the skeleton. Then, with a powerful jerk, he obliterated the wisp of soul into smoke.

"Nangong Ce, aren't you afraid that we'll fight you to the death?" another undead retorted coldly.

He was truly panicked, never expecting that City Lord Nangong would possess such terrifying strength so soon after waking up.

"Damn it, are those two Supreme Sacred Weapons of yours really made of scrap metal?! Can't they be of any use?!" Another living dead man vented his anger on the peerless expert who wielded the two Supreme Sacred Weapons.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't control weapons in his spirit form, he would have wanted to snatch those two supreme holy weapons and activate them himself.

Holding a priceless treasure yet not exerting any effort—who wouldn't be furious?

"If you dare to speak disrespectfully to me again, I'll kill you right now!" the peerless expert replied coldly. He was simultaneously activating two supreme holy weapons, which, along with the Devouring Heaven Vessel and the Supreme God's Weeping Throne, were restraining each other and he was unable to break the stalemate. He was already furious, and now that the living dead was pointing his finger at him and cursing him, he had no temper left. It was already quite good that he hadn't directly swept away the holy weapons and annihilated the other party's soul.

"punish!"

With a soft shout, the City Lord of Nangong unleashed thousands of dazzling sword beams that swirled like a river of stars, sweeping towards the few remaining people.

"Stop them, or I'll make you all vanish into thin air!" The peerless expert drank heavily, ordering the undead to block his way, while he activated two holy weapons, attempting to forcefully break through the spatial barrier.

"boom!"

Several undead gathered together, their divine senses coalescing into a vast ocean that clashed with the overwhelming sword light, unleashing a dazzling burst of light that illuminated the entire sky.

"Bang!"

At the same time, with a loud bang, the spatial barrier constructed by the City Lord of Nangong was smashed open, and the peerless expert who wielded two supreme holy weapons turned into a blur and rushed out without looking back.

Seeing this, the other undead also set off, trying to escape, but City Lord Nangong had already attacked. With a wave of his hand, strands of the laws of order condensed into lightning, directly crushing and obliterating one of the undead, and then reaching out to grab the other two, mercilessly suppressing and killing them.

All the undead were dead, but unfortunately, the peerless expert who wielded two supreme holy weapons had already fled far away.

"It's a pity that person got away, otherwise the two supreme holy weapons would have been ours." Several elders of the Nangong family were unwilling.

The city lord of Nangong did not pursue them, but simply raised his hand and cast a magic seal into the void.

This magic seal was formed from a wisp of killing intent from the City Lord of Nangong. It has already identified the peerless expert and can be tracked down no matter where the opponent runs. It will only dissipate after the opponent is completely annihilated.

As the great battle came to an end, the vast sky gradually cleared. The Lord of Nangong City stood high in the sky, his white robes fluttering. His handsome face showed no emotion, as if nothing in the world could affect his mind.

At this moment, all the cultivators in Tai'an City stared at the sky in shock. City Lord Nangong had awakened and killed many powerful figures single-handedly. What realm was he at now?

Jiang Yue was equally shocked. She couldn't see the battle scene inside because of the spatial barrier, but she could fill in some images in her mind through the blurry shadows.

"Is this the Lord's combat power? There's only one realm between us, yet there's a world of difference between us."

Above the peerless realm is the Sovereign realm, but the gap between the two is as vast as the heavens and the earth. No wonder that no one in the world today has been able to reach that level for so long.

High in the sky, the lonely figure of the City Lord of Nangong stood for a long time before slowly walking down. His expression was still indifferent, but there was a sense of desolation between his brows.

Tai'an City is still the same Tai'an City, as prosperous as ever, with no major changes, but the people are no longer the same as they were back then.

As the stars shift and the world changes, everything has long since changed beyond recognition.

The City Lord of Nangong returned to the City Lord's Mansion and walked straight into the main hall. People from the Nangong family and the Northern Imperial Guard followed closely behind and paid their respects in the main hall.

Lord Nangong merely raised his hand slightly, indicating that they need not stand on ceremony. Looking at the corpses lying haphazardly in pools of blood outside the main hall, he sighed silently, then raised his hand to unleash a peaceful and holy light, purifying everything.

"Ancestor, there is no need to grieve. To die for you is the greatest honor. Once we return to the family, we will certainly ask the patriarch to have the names of these fallen warriors engraved in the Merit Forest," said an elder of the Nangong family.

"It was my failure to protect them. I am truly unworthy of the title 'Ancestor.'" City Lord Nangong shook his head. These people were all descendants of his lineage, and now they had suffered this fate because of him, which made him feel guilty.

"Let their bodies be buried in the manor." After saying this, Lord Nangong raised his hand and removed all the restrictions and seals on Tai'an City, allowing everyone to come and go freely.

"Given City Lord Nangong's current physical condition, refining the remaining half of the Kunpeng Immortal Medicine shouldn't be a problem," Jiang Yue thought to herself. She didn't follow him into the main hall. Seeing that City Lord Nangong's condition had improved, she immediately wanted to leave Tai'an City with Little Taotie.

"You don't need to leave," came the voice of Lord Nangong.

"We have not yet repaid His Highness Prince Xiang's great kindness, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"Don't worry, as long as we're here, no one will dare to lay a hand on you in Tai'an City."

When the others saw that Jiang Yue was about to leave, they all tried to persuade her to leave.

Meanwhile, as soon as Tai'an City was unsealed, everything that happened there spread like wildfire to the outside world, shocking everyone.

What kind of combat power does it take for one person to kill multiple peerless experts?

The various transcendent forces are no longer at peace. The resurgence of an ancient figure like Lord Nangong may disrupt the existing balance and affect the current world order.

As dawn broke, the head of the Nangong family arrived in Tai'an City.

"Heh, you disappear when something's going on, but you're the first to show up and make your presence known once everything's been resolved. You're good at judging situations, no wonder you can be the head of the family."

Inside the Chaotian Hall of the City Lord's Mansion, Nangong Huang sneered at the first Nangong family head who arrived, saying that his decision to betray the Nangong family years ago was largely due to this family head.

The head of the Nangong family glanced at him and said, "Do you think I'm a coward? Do you know what our family has been through? A formidable enemy is at our doorstep, and the Supreme God of Weeping is not on the throne. Do you think I could have escaped?!"

"What? People from the family have also come to attack?" The elders and senior members of the Nangong family all showed expressions of shock.

The head of the Nangong family didn't say much, only that the matter had been resolved and the family was safe. Then he went straight forward and bowed to the city lord of Nangong on the high seat in the main hall.

"Nangong Min, the current head of the Nangong family, has arrived late to rescue you. I hope the patriarch will forgive me!"

"It's good that you're alright." City Lord Nangong nodded slightly and told him to rise.

Before long, the leaders and representatives of various forces arrived in Tai'an City and paid homage at the Chaotian Hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Greetings, Lord Nangong!"

The heads and patriarchs of these powerful families, as well as the holy masters and sect leaders of the Xuanmen Holy Land, all bowed and paid their respects to City Lord Nangong, showing great deference.

Then, they spoke one after another, stating that everything that happened to Tai'an City and the Nangong family last night had nothing to do with them, and even produced a lot of evidence to prove their innocence.

Just then, someone noticed Jiang Yue standing in the corner.

"Chizuru! How dare you come here and cause trouble!"

Jiang Yue looks only about six years old now, but because she hasn't changed her appearance, she is still recognized at a glance.

At this moment, many outstanding young talents were gathered outside the Chaotian Hall. When they discovered that Jiang Yue was also there, a flash of murderous intent crossed their eyes.

"You have a grudge against her?" Lord Nangong asked calmly from his throne.

"Your Majesty, this woman has committed numerous crimes; only her execution can appease the hearts of the people!"

"This woman has killed countless disciples of our sect and has a deep-seated grudge against Wuyang Mountain. We beseech Lord Nangong to hand her over to us for disposal!"

Everyone stared at Jiang Yue with murderous intent. If it weren't for City Lord Nangong's presence, they would have torn her to pieces by now.

"You want to kill her?" City Lord Nangong spoke calmly, his face showing no change in emotion, but wherever his gaze fell, those who were indignant just a second ago immediately shut their mouths.

"What does Lord Nangong mean...?" someone asked, emboldened by the challenge.

Because judging from the way Lord Nangong acted, it seemed he wanted to protect Jiang Yue.

"She saved my life, can't I protect her?" The city lord of Nangong's voice wasn't loud, but it instantly silenced the entire hall.

"Are you kidding me? She's only at the Void God Realm. How could she possibly deal with a powerful enemy and save Lord Nangong's life?" someone muttered under their breath.

"Before the great enemy attacked, His Highness Prince Xiang brought the Kunpeng Immortal Medicine," an elder of the Nangong family said at this moment.

"What? The Kunpeng Immortal Medicine? Could she be the Xiang King who was granted a royal title by the Great Xia Dynasty?" Many people showed surprise.

Because Tai'an City was completely sealed off before, news of Jiang Yue's exposed identity did not reach the outside world, and these people were unaware of it.

"Has your feud with her really reached the point where it's irreconcilable and cannot be resolved?" City Lord Nangong turned his gaze to the leader of Wuyang Mountain.

The sect leader of Wuyang Mountain cupped his hands and said, "Indeed, many of our younger disciples have died at her hands, and even a renowned elder was burned alive by her strange fire. How can we let this go unpunished?"

"If they hadn't intended to kill me first, how could they have died at my hands? I was only forced to act to save my own life," Jiang Yue said dismissively.

City Lord Nangong nodded and said, "Both sides are at fault in this matter. Why don't we just let it go?"

Although the sect leader of Wuyang Mountain was unwilling, so many disciples had died, and they were all outstanding disciples trained by the elite. How could he just turn the page like that?

However, Lord Nangong has already made his attitude and stance very clear: he wants to protect Jiang Yue. What else can he say at this point?

Seeing that the Wuyang Mountain Sect Leader did not give a reply, City Lord Nangong took it as a yes, and then turned to look at Jiang Yue, saying gently, "From now on, unless your own safety is threatened, you must never take someone's life lightly."
