The She clan’s residence was completely occupied by the black dragon’s huge body.

The black dragon’s body twisted violently. Anyone who touched it would immediately be blasted into a pool of blood and flesh.

The heavily guarded She Clan was filled with people inside and outside. At this moment, under the black dragon’s feet, it had become a purgatory on earth. Whether it was the members of the She clan or the city guards outside, they were all swept up by the black dragon’s huge body.

The black dragon had already broken free from She Tianjun’s restraints. At this moment, its two snake eyes were scarlet red. From time to time, it would raise its head and hiss to express its excitement.

The blood food everywhere made it full. However, the black dragon was not satisfied just by those in front of him.

Ten to twenty percent of the City Defense Army could run. The remaining eighty to ninety percent of the people were all killed by the black dragon. In addition to the members of the She clan, hundreds of people had turned into blood food in the black dragon’s stomach in just a short while.

With the She clan as the center, a strong stench kept spreading out. There were people fighting to escape.

At this moment, the demons outside also realized the seriousness of the matter. The families closest to this place immediately retreated with their clansmen. No matter what the current situation was, the black dragon seemed to have lost control. They did not want to be the next batch of scapegoats.

No matter how hard She Tianjun tried to contact the black dragon, there was no response at all. No matter how hard he tried, it was all in vain.

“Clan Master, is there no other way?” Seeing She Tianjun’s despair, the First Elder could guess the outcome.

When She Tianjun made his move, he did not expect things to change so quickly. “Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit will definitely hear our voices.” She Tianjun muttered.

It was obvious that he no longer had any way to control the black dragon. He could only hope that his prayers would be useful.

On the other side, the City Lord was fleeing outside in a panic. He could not wait to escape outside the city. Who would have thought that the She clan would be forced to do such a crazy thing?

Moreover, seeing as the fellow could no longer control the black dragon, he could no longer stay in Ping City.

The black dragon was so powerful, unless it left happily, they would not be able to get past this hurdle if it did not kill half of the citizens in the city.

The City Lord wished he could throw away all his titles and run away as soon as possible so that he wouldn’t be involved in these matters. As he was running, a shadow suddenly flashed in front of him. The City Lord suddenly stopped in an alley.

“Who?” The City Lord looked around in bewilderment. The two guards behind him finally arrived.

After everyone arrived, the group of people hiding in the shadows slowly appeared and surrounded them.

“Who are you?” The City Lord stared at them warily for a while. Suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something and widened his eyes at the leader. Although these people’s faces were covered with black cloth, the City Lord still recognized him immediately. “Clan Master Zhang, what are you doing?”

Clan Master Zhang did not answer him directly. He only said in a hoarse voice, “City Lord, you’ve been living comfortably for so many years. Why would you do such a thing?”

“Don’t misunderstand. I don’t have any intention of targeting you. I just don’t like She Tianjun. Isn’t it the same for you? That fellow is so arrogant. Isn’t it for everyone’s good that I killed him?”

“Save this kind of lie for when you get down there.” Clan Master Zhang obviously did not fall for this. He knew very well what the City Lord was planning.

With that, the group slowly pulled out their weapons.

A few kilometers away, a stench of blood filled the sky. However, in this small alley, the cold moonlight shone on the cold weapons, making these people look like ghosts.

“Anything can be discussed. I’ll give you whatever you want.”

“I want my son back!” As the man said this, both sides knew that the situation had reached a point of no return.

In the next second, the swords collide heavily.

“Help!” A person who looked like a city guard ran in a panic and fell in front of Li Yuanqing. A cloud of black mist followed closely behind him.

Li Yuanqing frowned and drew a line in the air with his sword finger. A bright light flashed, and the black fog was instantly dispersed by Li Yuanqing’s seemingly casual strike.

“This snake looks like it’s at the seventh or eighth stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. It feels very troublesome.”

Hu Jiujiu looked at the rampaging snake from afar. It would be very difficult for her to deal with it.

The Black Dragon’s range of activity had increased greatly. It was not satisfied with killing everyone in that area. Instead, it set his sights on the center of Ping City. From its greedy gaze, it could be seen that this fellow was planning to slaughter everyone in the city.

If the She Clan and the City Defense Army were to fight each other, they would deserve to die. However, the ordinary cultivators of Ping City were innocent. They had been implicated for no reason. If they were cruelly killed by this thing, this place would really become hell on earth.

“Master.” Hu Jiujiu turned around and realized that Li Yuanqing was no longer behind her.

In the sky, Li Yuanqing stood in the air, his eyes shining like the brightest stars in the night sky.

The black dragon was eating happily with its head lowered when it suddenly felt a biting cold killing intent and raised its head. Its two huge snake eyes sized up Li Yuanqing. The human cultivator in front of it contained a huge amount of energy, so it had no choice but to treat him seriously. A cunning glint appeared in the black dragon’s eyes as it extended its long and narrow tongue and swayed slightly.

“Evil creature, don’t be impudent again!” Li Yuanqing’s voice was like a huge bell that resounded through the night sky, causing the people fleeing below to look up at the sky.

The black dragon was very obedient when it heard Li Yuanqing’s words. It carefully slid over and extended its huge head in front of Li Yuanqing. Furthermore, it looked like it was fawning over Li Yuanqing.

She Tianjun looked at the scene in the sky in shock. What was wrong with this Holy Spirit? The person standing in the sky was just an inconspicuous human. No, he should have seen him somewhere.

Although the black dragon lowered its head, its eyes were filled with ruthlessness. It was only waiting for Li Yuanqing to lower his guard and eat him. The huge amount of energy in this human cultivator’s body was equivalent to swallowing hundreds of thousands of ordinary people.

Li Yuanqing slowly stretched out a hand with a flame ring in his hand. This beast taming ring could only be used temporarily and had a certain suppressive effect on demon beasts for a short period of time.

The snake felt the ring of flames in Li Yuanqing’s hand slowly approaching its head.

Just as they were about to come into contact, it suddenly raised its head and opened its bloody mouth. All the muscles in its body tensed up and it swallowed Li Yuanqing at lightning speed.

The onlookers below watched the scene above and exclaimed. They thought that an immortal would be able to help them escape from their current predicament. They did not expect that this person would be countered by the black dragon as soon as he attacked.

“This demon beast is so cunning. Why isn’t this person on guard?”

“What a pity for this mighty senior.”

When the cultivators who were standing on the spot saw this, they hurriedly quickened their pace. If they didn’t run now, they would be the next to die.

Sword intent.

A monstrous sword intent.

It was like a cold winter wind, domineering and ruthless as it blew through every corner of Ping City. An incomparably bright sword light appeared on the head of the black dragon. This sword light was extremely hot, illuminating the entire Ping City as if it was daytime. Whether it was those who were fleeing or those who were hiding, they all felt a terrifying fear.

Almost instantly.

The sword light connected heaven and earth like a heavenly pillar. It only lasted for an instant before slowly dissipating.

“What powerful killing intent.”

“What kind of power is this?”

“This sword intent!”

At this moment, no one cared about escaping. They all jumped onto the roof and looked in the direction of Li Yuanqing. All of them knelt down deeply towards Li Yuanqing like they were on a pilgrimage. That was not a person standing there, but an immortal who could use sword techniques to the extreme.

With a single sword strike, it could change the space around it and sprinkle the entire night sky with sword intent.

Two huge halves of the snake’s body smashed heavily to the ground.

One strike split the world.

One strike destroyed the soul.

One strike displayed the Sword Dao to the extreme.

The black dragon that was wreaking havoc in Ping City was destroyed by Li Yuanqing’s sword.

Li Yuanqing slowly landed, and Hu Jiujiu leaned over happily. “Master, your sword is too powerful. Even I feel the Sword Dao of the origin of heaven and earth.”

“There shouldn’t be anything else here. Let’s go back first.”

“What about She Tianjun?”

“Ignore him. Someone will come out and deal with him.”

As they spoke, the two of them had already disappeared.

After a while, a group of people suddenly appeared on the roof. These people were on guard and looked cautiously at the place where Li Yuanqing had been.

“I feel it.”

“I feel it too. It’s this sword intent.”

“What a powerful force. Could there really be immortals in this world?”

“I didn’t expect Ping City to have such an existence. How terrifying is his strength?”

That night, the people of Ping City did not sleep at all. After witnessing all of this, everyone was filled with excitement. Many people simply guarded the place where the black dragon died, wanting to feel the sword intent that filled the world. They all wanted to use this sword intent to break through their cultivation.

The next day, there were more people staying at the place where Li Yuanqing was the previous night. These people gathered here and talked about news from time to time.

“I heard that the City Lord was seriously injured last night, but he was lucky enough to escape. I think he was saved and sent back to the City Lord Manor.”

“The City Lord is really lucky. After escaping last night, he was stopped halfway and almost lost his life. Fortunately, he kept his trump card and escaped in the chaos.”

“But I heard that his injuries are quite serious. I don’t think he will have any hope of breaking through for the rest of his life.”

“He’s given up at such a young age. How is he going to live the rest of his life?”

The group of people felt that it was a pity. As cultivators, the most important thing for them was to constantly climb up. As long as they could keep moving forward, their lives would continue. If their foundation was damaged in their prime and they could not get a chance to continue improving, they would probably be better off dead.

“What happened to She Tianjun now?”

“Don’t mention that person. I’m annoyed just hearing about it. He almost caused everyone to die by creating such a huge thing.”

“I heard that the demons have already formed an alliance and are discussing removing the She clan.”

“This is all retribution.”

Just as everyone was discussing, a group of people with immortal auras suddenly descended from the distance. These people were dressed in long robes that fluttered in the wind. Their attire was completely different from the current mainstream attire. It was obvious that they were not from Ping City.

Everyone stared at them in confusion. A tall person walked out and cupped his hands at them.

“We are some itinerant cultivators outside the city. We usually stay in the deep mountains to comprehend the Dao. Today, I suddenly felt an extremely strong sword intent so I was attracted to this place. We happened to be together by chance.”

“I wonder which senior did such a powerful sword intent?” They looked at everyone present excitedly, wanting to get an answer. “We want to kowtow to this senior.”

“I’m afraid you guys came at the wrong time if you’re here for that mighty senior. We don’t know who this senior is.”

“What? Isn’t Senior someone from this city?”

“No one knows about this. Perhaps Senior is just a hidden expert of a certain family, but we haven’t been able to find his whereabouts yet.”

Hearing this explanation, disappointment appeared on their faces.

“It’s a pity that I can’t meet such a mighty figure.”

“Brother Liu, since we can’t see the senior anymore, let’s quickly sit down and comprehend the Dao. This place is a natural Dao enlightenment field. It will be a great improvement to our swordsmanship.”

“I hope that I’ll have the chance to meet this senior in the future. It’s rare to hear of such an existence in the current world.”

The black dragon’s body was still lying quietly on the ground, which had destroyed many houses.

Although this thing took up a lot of space, the slightest aura emitted from it was enough to bring about a breakthrough. Therefore, no one dared to move it.

Along the body, many people were gathered. All of them were cultivating wholeheartedly, forming a vast cultivation ground.
