Crossover: The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, starting with cultivation with the Six Flowers Im

However, Nangong Yehua had no intention of giving up. He knew that only by finding the real mastermind could he succeed.

Only then can this hidden danger be completely eliminated. So, he slowly stepped forward, his deep eyes fixed on the rogue ninja, awaiting their answer.

Nangong Yehua stood before the three rogue ninjas, his gaze piercing as if it could penetrate all lies and pretense.

He harbored both a yearning for the truth and a premonition of the conspiracy about to be revealed. However, in this tense standoff, an unexpected turn of events occurred.

Suddenly, the eyes of the three rogue ninjas turned bloodshot, as if driven by some evil force. Their faces twisted, and a strange smile curled at the corners of their mouths.

Nangong Yehua felt a chill run down his spine; his intuition told him that this was no ordinary matter.

"As expected of you, Nangong Yehua."

The leader of the traitors' voice was hoarse and low, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, filled with resentment and bitterness.

"Hehehe, if you were any faster, you might be able to save Mei Terumi."

These words struck Nangong Yehua like a bolt from the blue, causing her heart to sink.

Nangong Yehua instantly understood that these rogue ninjas were not just trying to provoke and test him; they had a deeper conspiracy—a conspiracy against the Mizukage, Terumi Mei.

Their self-destruction was likely an attempt to buy time, or a signal to trigger a larger crisis.

Almost simultaneously with realizing this, the bodies of the three rogue ninjas began to emit an ominous glow.

Energy surged wildly within them, as if it wanted to devour all life and hope.

Nangong Yehua reacted swiftly, his figure retreating rapidly like an arrow released from a bow, instantly widening the distance between himself and the rogue ninjas.

However, even so, the power of the explosion was still astonishing. It was followed by a deafening roar.

Three dazzling beams of light exploded where Nangong Yehua had originally stood, and the shockwaves spread outwards with destructive power, raising dust and blotting out the sky.

Nangong Yehua managed to maintain his balance with his exceptional speed and reflexes, but even so, he still felt the terror and threat of that power.

After the explosion, everything returned to calm, but the smell of scorched earth and the atmosphere of unease lingered in the air for a long time.

Nangong Yehua stood still, his gaze piercing through the billowing smoke and dust, looking into the distance—the direction of the Water Shadow Mansion.

A strong premonition surged in his heart that Mei Terumi was facing unprecedented danger.

Without a moment's hesitation, Nangong Yehua immediately turned around, his figure once again transforming into a blur as he sped towards the direction of the Water Shadow Mansion.

His heart was filled with anxiety and anger. He not only wanted to rescue Mei Terumi, but also to uncover the conspiracy behind it all and make those enemies hiding in the shadows pay the price they deserved.

Chapter 574 Mizukage Mansion in Disaster

The scenery along the way was like fleeting clouds in Nangong Yehua's eyes; he had only one thought in his mind—speed!

Faster! He needed to reach Mei Terumi's side before it was too late to save her.

As Nangong Yehua drew closer, the outline of the Shuiying Mansion gradually became clearer.

However, when he actually saw the scene before him, he couldn't help but gasp.

The mansion was surrounded by heavy guards, and the atmosphere was extremely tense, clearly indicating that it was on high alert.

What worried Nangong Yehua even more was that the faint sounds of fighting and screams coming from inside the mansion seemed to indicate that a fierce battle was underway.

4. Without time to think, Nangong Yehua took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and prepared to face the upcoming battle.

He knew this battle would be the toughest and most dangerous of his career.

But he also understood that only by defeating the enemy before him could he protect everything he cherished.

Thus, with unwavering faith and fearless courage, Nangong Yehua resolutely stepped through the gates of the Water Shadow Mansion.

Nangong Yehua strode across the heavy gate of the Shuiying Mansion, the sound of the hinges turning particularly jarring in the quiet yet chaotic atmosphere.

As soon as he stepped across the threshold, the scene before him pierced his heart like a sharp blade—a group of masked men in black moved through the mansion like ghosts.

Holding sharp blades, they expressionlessly slaughtered the defenseless servants.

Cries, pleas for mercy, and the piercing sounds of metal clashing mingled together, creating a scene of utter horror.

Nangong Yehua's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, burning with rage. He could not tolerate such atrocities happening before his eyes.

"stop!"

Nangong Yehua roared, his voice echoing like thunder throughout the mansion, causing the men in black to involuntarily stop what they were doing.

They all turned to look at the powerful figure who had suddenly barged in.

However, Nangong Yehua did not give them any chance to catch their breath.

With a flick of his right hand, dozens of sharp light blades instantly materialized at his fingertips. These blades, like silver lightning, slashed through the air and shot accurately at the men in black.

Each blade of light pierced the black-clad man's body with perfect accuracy, spraying blood everywhere.

The men in black didn't even have time to react before they collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

The scene unfolded so suddenly and was so shocking that everyone present, including the surviving servants, stood frozen in place.

They stared wide-eyed at Nangong Yehua, their faces filled with disbelief, as if they had seen a savior.

Just then, a ragged servant, his face streaked with tears, came running up, crying out as he ran:

"Something's wrong! Mei Terumi-sama 327 has been captured! They've gone that way!"

As he spoke, his trembling finger pointed in a direction deep within the mansion.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yehua's face instantly turned ashen.

Mei Terumi, as the Mizukage, was humiliated and enraged to be kidnapped within her own residence.

He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug deep into his palms, but the pain was nothing compared to the torment he was going through.

"Take me there!" Nangong Yehua commanded the servant in a deep voice, his tone leaving no room for argument.

The servant nodded hurriedly and led Nangong Yehua through the chaotic scene, rushing towards the direction where Terumi Mei had been captured.

Chapter 575 Chasing After Mei Iroha

Along the way, Nangong Yehua continuously used his spiritual power to explore his surroundings, trying to find any clues left by the men in black.

His heart was filled with a sense of urgency and anxiety; he knew that time was of the essence in rescuing Terumi Mei.

As they ventured deeper into the mansion, Nangong Yehua felt an increasingly strong sense of crisis.

But he did not back down; instead, his resolve only strengthened. He was determined to rescue Mei Terumi, and no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, he would forge ahead without hesitation.

Nangong Yehua moved like a cheetah along the edge of Wuyin Village, each step marked by determination and urgency.

The air outside the village was fresher, but also quieter, as if even the wind was holding its breath, witnessing the impending showdown.

His gaze was fixed on the deep, dense forest ahead, the only route the group of men in black could take to escape.

As Nangong Yehua ventured deeper into the forest, the surrounding light gradually dimmed, and the tall trees stood silently like ancient guardians.

The dappled light and shadow filtering through the intertwined branches added a touch of mystery and unease to the chase.

Nangong Yehua's heartbeat quickened in sync with his footsteps, and his senses were sharpened to their highest level, so that no slightest sound could escape his ears.

Finally, in a relatively open area, Nangong Yehua discovered the group of men in black.

They were hurrying along a secluded path, clearly very familiar with the terrain of the forest.

Six men in black stood in a line, their steps precise and swift. In the middle, one of them carried the unconscious Mei Terumi on his shoulder, her figure appearing exceptionally frail and helpless.

Anger and anxiety flashed in Nangong Yehua's eyes. He knew he couldn't hesitate any longer.

He took a deep breath, his spiritual energy surged, and he accelerated instantly, rushing towards the group of men in black like an arrow released from a bow.

"stop!"

Nangong Yehua's voice echoed through the forest, carrying an undeniable authority.

However, the man in black did not stop; instead, he quickened his pace, attempting to escape. Nangong Yehua sneered, his figure flashing as he instantly appeared in front of them, blocking their path.

"Put Mei Terumi down!"

Nangong Yehua's voice was deep and powerful, each word like a heavy hammer striking the heart of the man in black.

However, these men in black were clearly not ordinary enemies; they remained expressionless, simply staring coldly at Nangong Yehua.

It felt as if I wasn't facing a living person, but an obstacle that had to be cleared away.

"Hmph, do you think you can stop us?" The leader of the men in black sneered, brandishing his long sword and signaling the others to prepare for battle.

The remaining five men in black quickly dispersed, forming a circle that surrounded Nangong Yehua and Zhao Meiming.

Nangong Yehua remained calm, knowing full well that this was going to be a tough battle.

He slowly raised his right hand, and dense spiritual power gathered at his fingertips, forming sharp blades of light that gleamed coldly in the air.

His gaze swept over each of the men in black (Okay, Zhao), as if assessing their strength while searching for the best breakthrough.

"Since you are seeking death, don't blame me for being rude!"

Nangong Yehua let out a low roar and suddenly sprang up, charging towards the man in black like a tiger descending a mountain.

His speed was so fast that his figure was almost invisible, leaving only afterimages flashing in the air.

The battle erupted instantly, the crisp sounds of clashing weapons and the screams of the men in black echoing through the forest.

Chapter 576 Go to hell, Nudu!

With her exceptional strength and rich combat experience, Nangong Yehua moved freely through the encirclement of men in black, each attack precise and deadly.

However, the men in black were no pushovers either. They worked together seamlessly, launching a continuous barrage of attacks that put considerable pressure on Nangong Yehua.

Throughout this fierce battle, Nangong Yehua kept a close eye on Terumi Mei's safety.

He used the gaps between each attack to try to get close to Mei Terumi, who was being carried on his shoulder.

However, the man in black seemed to have seen through his intentions and always managed to force him back before he could get close.

Just then, Nangong Yehua saw an opportunity. He deliberately created a weakness, luring one of the men in black from group 327 to attack him.

The man in black fell for the trap and swung his long sword at Nangong Yehua.

However, Nangong Yehua took advantage of the situation and flashed behind the man in black. At the same time, he waved his right hand, and a blade of light accurately struck the man in black's wrist, causing the long sword to fall to the ground.

Taking advantage of the opening, Nangong Yehua suddenly leaped up and rushed towards Terumi Mei, who was being carried on his shoulder, like lightning.

He grabbed the man in black by the shoulder and shoved him aside, throwing him and Mei Terumi to the side.

He then quickly stepped forward, untied the ropes binding Terumi Mei, and held her in his arms.

"Mei Terumi, are you alright?"

Nangong Yehua asked with concern.

Mei Terumi slowly opened her eyes, and upon seeing Nangong Yehua's familiar face, her eyes instantly reddened, and tears welled up in her eyes.

She shook her head with all her might to indicate that she was alright.

Seeing this, Nangong Yehua felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He knew that all his perseverance and effort at this moment had been worthwhile.

He looked up at the men in black, his eyes filled with determination and resolve.

The moment Nangong Yehua saved Terumi Mei, it felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his heart, and all his worries and anxieties vanished.

After he looked down to confirm that Mei Terumi was safe and sound, his eyes instantly turned cold and resolute as he turned to face the men in black who were still stirring.

(bede) "Now, it's your turn."

Nangong Yehua's voice was deep and powerful, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying an undeniable killing intent.

He slowly raised his hands, and spiritual energy surged around him, forming dazzling rays of light that enveloped him, making him appear as if a god had descended.

Upon seeing this, the men in black all showed fear, but they knew there was no way to retreat now, so they could only grit their teeth and meet them head-on.

However, Nangong Yehua's strength was far beyond their imagination. With a single movement, he moved like a ghost among the men in black, each strike precise and deadly.

With a wave of his hands, Nangong Yehua unleashed several spiritual energy blades that pierced the air with a whistling sound as they hurtled towards the man in black.

The men in black tried to resist, but their weapons were so fragile in the face of Nangong Yehua's spiritual power that they were all cut off or knocked away.

Immediately afterwards, Nangong Yehua sprang up like a tiger descending a mountain, each punch and kick accompanied by a booming sound, knocking the men in black to the ground one by one.

In the blink of an eye, the arrogant men in black were all wiped out by Nangong Yehua.

Their bodies collapsed to the ground, unable to move. Nangong Yehua stood there, still panting, but her eyes were filled with the joy and pride of victory.

He turned to look at Mei Terumi in his arms, a gentle smile playing on his lips.
