"You overestimate yourself; it''s not the demonic cultivatorthat worries me,but his sword, Greed.Otherwise, do you think I would need to fulfill my oath?"


    "Greed?"


    "Yes, the sword that man held." The celestial beast then started exining the sword''s history.


    Hearing this, MingYue didn''t feel afraid; instead, she felt interested.


    A sword capable of consuming other people''s cultivation. Despite the drawbacks, she was sure Vesa could do something about it.


    ''It will make a good reward for MingHao.''


    MingYue then flicked her hand, takingouta mannequin from her storage ring. This one should already be dead, as it was stabbed by LingHua, but it''s not a problem now as Vesa can materialize.


    A red fog started emanating from MingYue''s body, instilling a sense of dread in the beast.


    She took a step back. "What are you doing? I already told you I don''t want to fight."


    "Yes, you don''t, but you are still bound by an oath to attack the vige. Since I have something else to do, I will give you a partner to y with."


    The red fog entered the mannequin. It then started moving, giving a bow toward MingYue.


    "Queen, you can go. Don''t worry. I will take care of this pest."


    MingYue nodded and then flew back toward the vige.


    The celestial beast, meanwhile, kept eyeing Vesa carefully, aware she was in front of a predator that could devour her at any time.


    Even though Vesa is not a progenitor, Vesa is still a being just one level below it.


    "Senior, as I said, I don''t want to fight.Could you justlet me go?


    I will look for another target. Now, I am sure your master should be able to defeat him."


    Vesa didn''t reply quickly; instead, it gazed at the celestial beast up and down. "What is your name?"


    "QingWa Xian, Senior."


    Swoosh, Vesaunched a kick toward QingWa. She was surprised by the sudden attack but still managed to block it.


    The moment the attack hit, she could feel her hand was broken. Despite this, she didn''t quickly counterattack.


    Instead, she tried to distance herself away from Vesa.


    As they continued fighting, MingYue had already reached back into the vige. The air was now filled with blood, with many corpses littered around the area.


    The once peaceful vige was nowhere to be seen now; it was just ruined buildings with a fire burningaround the area.


    She turned her gaze toward Yang Fei and LinFang.The area around them was even more decimated, craterwere everywhere, with manyschorch mark, and ck meburning.


    Yang Fei''s aurawas now surgingto thete-stage Golden Core realm, while Lin Fang remained the same. But she now had five puppets out fighting against Yang Fei.


    MingYue could see her two main puppets were now damaged.It''s one of the weaknesses of the puppet;they cannot regenerate in battle since they are basically non-living.


    Meanwhile, cultivators could heal themselves from minor wounds using a good pill.


    The male puppet was losing his right hand while his chest was cracked open, showing his internal mechanism. The female puppet had cracks all overherbody.


    "How dare you hurt them," LinFang screamed in anger as she focused on moving all five puppets.


    Logically, she should have used all five puppets to attack Yang Fei, but LinFang instead used three while pulling the other two puppets back.


    Seeing this, MingYue frowned; she was clearit''snot just herthatrealized this.Yang Feiintentionallytargeted LinFang''s father whileunching long-distance attacks on her mother.


    "What a stupid brat. We arevery luckynow, Yang Fei, I am sure we can get a decent meal. Kekeke," Greed said with its demonic voice.


    Yang Fei kept attacking, unleashing his secret technique that was now boosted by Greed.


    As part of the Yang n, his ability revolves around using fire like a sun.But now the sun me was turning ck, ratherthan giving out light, itinsteadabsorbed everything from the area, making itturndark.


    The ck me also didn''t growrger even when it hit wood or otherbustible objects; instead, it kept burning nonstop.


    One of the puppets was still lying on the ground, burned to ashes.


    Swoosh!


    A few more fireballs shot toward LinFang''s mother, who cleverly controlled her to dodge the attack as she moved the three puppets to attack Yang Fei with impable coordination.


    One punch toward his face, while the other did a side-sweep kick, with a piercing needleunched toward his back.


    Yang Fei, in response, raised his Qi, creating an explosion of light like a stun grenade. But this one turned everything around him into darkness.


    But this darkness didn''t matter to LinFang. What she wanted was an opportunity tounch one of her trump cards.


    She had three lotuses, one used in the past, the second one against the Golden Core cultivator, and now she would use thest one.


    A sphere shot out from the mechanismfromher mother''s hand. It didn''t matter, evenif LinFang could not see him; she just needed to know where he was located.


    BOOM!


    A three-wave attack exploded, followed by the self-destruction of the three puppets.


    MingYue still didn''tmake amove; she watched everything, feeling curious about how strong the sphere she got from her master was.


    ''I hope the master is doing okay now; she isthe oneleading the vigers to evacuate,'' MingYue thought.


    The ck light receded, butthere was still smokeblocking around the area.


    At this moment, something came out from it at high speed toward LinFang. She was caught off guard.


    Bang!


    At this moment, Yang shed toward her with all his power.


    He almost died by that attack; the only reason he survived is that Greed used almost all his stockpile to block and regenerate Yang Fei''s body.


    The sword fell vertically from the sky,anditwas targeted to cleave LinFang in two.
