Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road - Chapter 708

Chapter 708: Their Fates [Warning: Contains Disturbing Content] Chapter 708: Their Fates [Warning: Contains Disturbing Content] “It’s me.” Shenlian Yingyue effortlessly held the sword that was poised to cleave her in two.

Huang Bai Xing’s murderous aura faltered momentarily; her gloomy expression became stiff and awkward for a brief instant as her eyes trembled before her face returned to its usual demeanor.

Shenlian Yingyue felt something was off.

Was it just her imagination?

“What are you doing here?

Don’t you know it’s dangerous?” Huang Bai Xing narrowed her eyes and sheathed her sword.

Her strikingly beautiful face had never been so clouded with darkness.

“Are you worried about me?” Shenlian Yingyue tilted her head in confusion as she gently stroked Xiao Yun’s and Xiao Nian’s heads.

“Nonsense!

I can’t wait to kill you!

Leave now, or don’t blame me for being ruthless!” Huang Bai Xing snapped.

Her behavior raised suspicions among the others; she was irritated that the Shadow Army had failed to inform her.

{Master, this girl is too strong.

She discovered my presence and prevented me from contacting you,} the Shadow assigned to protect Shenlian Yingyue reported as he knelt.

Only Huang Bai Xing could see him.

Her fists clenched, and blood dripped from her palms.

“Bitch, you finally showed up!

Look at what you’ve done to me!” Lin Yeer and Lin Huanli suddenly erupted in rage, while Xiang FongFong and Liu Wen Yin trembled like frightened animals upon noticing Shenlian Yingyue.

“What are you screaming about?” Huang Bai Xing said coldly, her bad mood venting its rage on these women.

The outcome was predictable; they were in a dire state.

Although they had already died, their souls remained tethered due to the extreme torment Huang Bai Xing inflicted.

They could no longer sustain their physical forms.

Even in death, Huang Bai Xing had found a way to imprison their souls and continue her torture.

Their souls were bound by glowing white chains that emerged from her sleeve.

Shenlian Yingyue was taken aback to see the Divine Chain of Binding Soul.

Wasn’t this weapon supposed to be a secret artifact of the Ghost Race?

What was it doing in Huang Bai Xing’s possession?

{This person’s luck is terrifying, Master.

You shouldn’t make an enemy of her; I can tell she’s extraordinary,} Xiao Nian cautioned, patting her chest as she eyed Huang Bai Xing warily.

{To be honest…} Xiao Yun began recounting the past, detailing the torment Huang Bai Xing endured at the hands of the evil spirit within the her body.

Xiao Nian’s jaw dropped in shock: “…..” Shenlian Yingyue: “…..” “Didn’t I tell you to leave?

That old man will arrive soon if you don’t!” Huang Bai Xing exclaimed anxiously, grabbing Shenlian Yingyue’s wrist in an attempt to pull her away.

Shenlian Yingyue sensed another person’s presence, but she wasn’t scared.

“Where do you think you’re going?

After making a mess in my secret place, do you plan to leave easily?” The old voice sounded kind, but it was laced with malice.

As soon as the old man appeared, Huang Bai Xing’s expression darkened.

She was a step too late.

She moved in front of Shenlian Yingyue, her gaze fixed on the old man with cold intensity.

“Haha!

Don’t you hate her?

A Daughter of Destiny who was pulled down by an ‘antagonist’, falling from the favor of heaven and men,” chuckled the old man.

“Now, your men have become other people’s husbands.

Some of them have married the new Daughter of Destiny, Di Xiuyu.

Don’t you feel sad?

All of this was done by the very person you now wish to protect.” The old man, clad in a white hanfu that made him appear almost immortal, spoke with a mocking tone that only provoked Huang Bai Xing’s fury, driving a wedge between the two of them.

Huang Bai Xing’s eyes turned red, and no one could tell what thoughts raced through her mind.

Shenlian Yingyue moved Xiao Yun far away alongside Xiao Nian and stood protectively beside Huang Bai Xing.

“This old man looks familiar, but I can’t quite place him.

Do you know who he is?

He seems to harbor the extreme hatred for both of us,” Shenlian Yingyue said, eyeing the old man warily.

“Presumptuous, ignorant fool!” The pressure belonging to a Crossing Disaster cultivator bore down on them mercilessly.

Normal cultivators would have already perished under the weight of such a master’s presence.

Nevertheless, both women were not weak.

Still, the old man’s strength was significantly greater than theirs.

Unexpectedly, his power was so profound.

How long had he been concealing his strength, pretending to be simple within this sect?

Shenlian Yingyue ‘coughed up blood’ and ‘staggered’ back several steps.

Despite this, her spiritual energy wrapped around Huang Bai Xing, shielding her from harm.

“Who allowed you to protect me while endangering yourself?” Huang Bai Xing scolded.

Yet, her icy demeanor was overshadowed by worry and heartache.  She wanted to wipe the blood from Shenlian Yingyue’s lips, but her hands felt stiff and unresponsive.

Xiao Yun halted Xiao Nian and the Spirit Bees, who were about to go berserk and rush to retaliate against the old man for harming their master.

Before Shenlian Yingyue could respond, the old man sneered and introduced himself.

“Before you die, allow me to reveal my identity to you fool.

I am the first great elder of the Fairy Palace Sect.” The elder proclaimed proudly, anticipating their amazement, respect, and fear.

In the world, everyone knew him for his divine foresight and his Divine Artifact Stone.

His calculations were always accurate, earning him the respect of many and securing his position as the most prestigious elder in the sect.

Contrary to his expectations, his words were like pouring oil onto a blazing flame.

Both of their expressions remained unchanged.

“It turns out to be you, the one who harmed the innocent family fifty-six years ago.” Shenlian Yingyue’s face turned expressionless as she indifferently wiped blood from her mouth.

“What are you talking about?” The first elder’s face grew cold, and he suddenly looked at her with suspicion.

He hurt a lot of people, who was she referring to?

“Do you take pleasure in killing innocent people just to satisfy your greed?

Did you bask in the glory and wealth that your hypocrisy brought you?

How many people have you hurt in secret while pretending to be an upright citizen?” Shenlian Yingyue asked in a calm tone.

“How many young teenagers and girls have you raped, oh honorable elder?” Her face was expressionless, yet her eyes were icy.

“Who the hell are you?

Do you know those Demigods?” The first elder’s eyes widened in shock.

The dirty secrets he had tried to conceal were now exposed, leaving him both furious and shocked.

CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Littlecarrot Finally, we ended the lives of the bad people here.

Everything was cleared, from now on, they won’t be able to harm anyone anymore.
