Xiang Liu raised her hand, and the Nine Sons Of Misfortune raised a sinister wind. The Feng Clan’s disciples were decimated without any room for resistance. Feng Wuji, or Gongyang Tu rather, sneered as he watched these people. Ever since that day he fled after Qi Lin destroyed his corporeal body, Gongyang Tu’s tiny bit of Primordial Spirit had been searching all along for a body to possess.
And thus the Feng Wuji of the Northern Continent’s greatest noble clan, the Feng Clan, became his target.
After his possession succeeded, he needed to start everything over from the beginning. He had no choice but to feign a meek and submissive appearance, to suffer in silence. Fortunately, he had Xiang Liu’s contract, and his recovery was quite fast. When he heard that the Feng Clan was dispatching disciples into the Thunder Swamp and that the unequalled genius “Phoenix Immortal Sword” would also be going, he suppressed the wild joy in his heart. He had Xiang Liu prepare an ambush at the Thunder Swamp while he drew them for total annihilation.
Given Xiang Liu’s High Ancient Divine Realm, killing a Void Return cultivator was as easy as trussing a chicken, as easy as blowing dust away.
“Little Sister, do not struggle. Be a good girl and let Big Brother refine your Primordial Spirit.” Gongyang Tu complacently said.
As expected of Feng Huang the genius. When the Nine Sons Of Misfortune attacked, she unsheathed her divine sword.
This sword flew into the air and transformed into a phoenix flapping its wings, magnificent beyond words.
Countless bright flames descended following the sword like rain.
This was sword passed down through the Feng Clan – the Phoenix Sword.
The Phoenix Sword thrust forth, blocking the Nine Sons Of Misfortune. Xiang Liu then gestured, and the foehn wind rolled forth. Her nine swords separated like nine pythons.
“Great Wind Seal – Scorching Wind Barrier!”
All of a sudden, a gust blew around Feng Huang’er. This wind was searing hot, a thousand degrees in heat. When this hot wind blew, it surprisingly repelled the nine blades’ attacks. Xiang Liu was a bit surprised that a Void Return cultivator was actually able to dispel her assault.
Feng Huang’er’s attack did not stop there. After she used the Great Wind Seal, she then activated the Ten Thousand Phoenixes Divine Mirror. A ray of sword-light spread its wings and descended, transforming into a phoenix. The girl’s Divine Intent controlled the Phoenix Sword, her swordsmanship gorgeous and brimming with spiritual power. Every stroke of her sword was like a phoenix flapping it swings. Her Void Return Five Elements refined the Fire Element with explosive strength.
One phoenix above flapped its wings and launched an attack, entangling itself against Xiang Liu’s nine pythons. Overwhelming power filled the area, shaking the Thunder Swamp with rumbling tremors.
Feng Wuji was caught up in their magical energy and nearly stumbled into a Thunder Pond. The man showed an expression of shock.
This Phoenix Sword actually was strong enough to clash with Xiang Liu. To be clear, although Xiang Liu had a contract, she was not at the peak of High Ancient Divine Realm. However, High Ancient Realm was still High Ancient Realm. It was fundamentally very difficult for a Void Return cultivator to resist one.
Feng Huang’er was not weaker than Xiang Liu. Her swordsmanship was exceptional, and she was one with the sword, comparable to an Earlier Heaven magic treasure.
“All Birds Venerate Phoenix!”1
The girl gently raised and lowered her sword. Sword-light unleashed countless fire birds, their swarming numbers in the thousands.
Feng Wuji suddenly felt a chill. Her sword-intent had already froze him.
Countless sword-lights launched towards Feng Wuji like flying swallows. The girl was very bright, and she knew that killing the Divine Emissary came first before killing the contractor. Once her All Birds Venerate Phoenix locked on to the target, the sword-lights would swarm like bees, leaving no place to hide.
“Ridiculous, an insignificant cultivator dares to be so arrogant.” Xiang Liu was displeased. She immediately used Ten Million Destinies – Blood Of The People. The nine blades were nine pythons that spat out sword-light, each ray like a galaxy suspended in the sky. The sword-lights were a waterfall, spreading wide and emitting a stench of evil that mixed together with the thunder of the swamp, becoming even more dangerous.
Blood Of The People extinguished the thousand fire birds.
Xiang Liu sneered and closed the distance. Her nine blades combined into one that she swung towards the girl’s head.
“Die-“
Billion Destinies, Execution Of Evil!
Crash.
Divine Energy suppressed the girl, forcing her into the swamp. Explosions detonated endlessly, and the vast swamp seemed to be split apart, revealing a terrifying crevasse. Countless thunderclaps and lightning flashes were destroyed under Xiang Liu’s attack.
Back then, she was too late to use Billion Destinies against Qi Lin. This time, Xiang Liu did not even hesitate.
“Good!!” Feng Wuji’s excitement did not last long. All of a sudden, sparks flashed in the air, and the mud exploded.
The saber-light scattered.
A bright flame burned, and a girl slowly emerged. She now donned a set of clothes and armor. The clothing was crimson and covered in feathers, magnificent beyond compare. The clothes and armor released the True Spirit of a phoenix that surprisingly covered the girl, safeguarding her.
“What is this magic treasure?” Xiang Liu frowned. She did not expect her Billion Destinies would be blocked.
“This is Nirvana Divine Armor, something that Huang’er cherishes very much.” Feng Huang’er was a bit regretful. This magic treasure was formed by combining her Phoenix bloodline with the Ten Thousand Phoenix Divine Mirror, and it was specially crafted by her master. After sustaining fatal injury, its effect would activate to not only protect her, but also siphon a portion of that power off for her own use. However, the “Nirvana Divine Armor” had a time limit. After one nirvana, it would enter a cooldown period and be no different from ordinary armor.
“Then be buried together.”
Xiang Liu used Chaos Rank.
All of a sudden, Feng Huang’er sneered: “You should take care of your cripple of a man first.”
“What?”
A phoenix cry echoed through the nine firmaments.
The noise was earsplitting to Gongyang Tu. He felt an intense burning sensation, and when he turned around to look, that Phoenix Sword had shot out from under the swamp and was right in front of him. The sword unfurled truly like a phoenix spreading its wings. As it turned out, when she had been attacked, Feng Huang’er had already dropped the sword into the swamp to evade Xiang Liu’s attention. By the time Xiang Liu noticed this, it was already too late.
Xiang Liu completely did not expect her to be so shrewd, to still be able to think of a way to kill Gongyang Tu under that situation. The Divine General was truly filled with rage. First, Qi Lin, and now, this woman. She was a Divine Name, a once hegemon, how could she allow herself to be humiliated twice by cultivators.
“Chaos Rank – Everlasting Poison!”
Xiang Liu ignored Gongyang Tu and attacked instead.
The nine sabers moved, sinking into Feng Huang’er’s body.
“Rise!!”
The girl did not retreat. She controlled the Phoenix Sword, which was one with her. Her sword-intent was unstoppable. Gongyang Tu, who was not completely recovered, used the Chiyou Martial Chant, but he could not withstand the girl’s strike.
A familiar scene of humiliation occurred again.
The Phoenix Sword destroyed his corporeal body.
Gongyang Tu’s Primordial Spirit fled in a panic. The Phoenix Sword’s light was about to kill him, but fortunately, Xiang Liu unable to abandon him, in the end. In an instant, she was beside him, the Nine Sons Of Misfortune knocking aside the Phoenix Sword. The woman truly was mad with fury as she cursed him. “Trash!!”
Saying this, she dove into the swamp. With a gurgle, she vanished without a trace.
Feng Huang’er’s Divine Intent moved and scanned the surroundings. The Phoenix Sword hovered above her head, becoming the Divine Bird phoenix and guarding her.
“Xiang Liu!!” Feng Huang’er clenched her fist. Suddenly, the poison attacked her heart.
She promptly sat down cross-legged, held her breath, and activated the Ten Thousand Phoenixes Divine Mirror.
That poison inside her body was incomparably potent, and her Fire Element magical energy was unable to dispel it.
Feng Huang’er ingested a divine pill and calmly cultivated.
…
“Trash, you truly are trash!!! Another corporeal body was destroyed.”
Xiang Liu fled the swamp, cursing endlessly as they went.
Gongyang Tu’s Primordial Spirit trembled in fear, not daring to make a sound.
Xiang Liu very quickly found several “Great Qi Sect” cultivators. Among them was a middle-aged man whose Five Elements was compatible and a good material for possession. Xiang Liu killed the others while Gongyang Tu’s Primordial Spirit immediately possessed the man.
Possession meant invading the target’s Primordial Spirit and occupying the body, but the Five Elements could not be one of mutual restraint, otherwise there would be recoil.
Gongyang Tu’s Primordial Spirit was powerful, and he had cultivated the Chiyou Martial Chant and obtained Chiyou’s blood. Although the corporeal body he had previously used Chiyou’s blood to cultivate was already destroyed, the Chiyou Martial Chant was still branded onto his Primordial Spirit. This martial art was incomparably tyrannical, and he was very easily able to seize the body.
There was a period of weakness after possession, leaving Gongyang Tu haggard beyond compare.
“Your Servant never expected that Phoenix Sword to be so powerful. It was actually able to block your Destiny, Liu’er.”
Xiang Liu snorted, a bit cold to him.
“This was my carelessness, I dragged down Liu’er.” Gognyang Tu blamed himself.
“That Feng Huang’er has been stricken with my Chaos Rank. She will suffer and die, no need to worry.” Xiang Liu coldly said.
“That is good.”
“As you are, we may not be able to stay in the Thunder Swamp for much longer.” Xiang Liu was still a bit concerned in the end.
“Pity that Feng Huang’er got off easy. Your Servant will not be able to see this Phoenix Immortal Sword suffer and die.” Gongyang Tu grit his teeth. After possession, he was too weak right now. The Thunder Swamp’s interior astral thunder and Thunder Ponds could destroy him at any moment.
After enduring more hardship, he was already no longer able to take any risks for the moment.
“Your Servant heard that monkey has also come. This was supposed to be our perfect chance for revenge.” Gongyang Tu had planned to kill Feng Huang’er and steal her magical energy and treasures, then infiltrate the group that was handling the Great Sage Equal Of Heaven. Now, he had died before even starting, and everything was ruined.
“The Daoxing Tianzun’s original intention is to collect the Daydream, and the Three Houses and Five Sects presumably do not actually want to be cannon fodder. They collude in secret to prepare to hunt the Immemorial Strange Beast, ‘Kui.’ If that Qi Lin is even the slightest bit bright, then he absolutely will not offend the Chan Sect and will go fight the Daoxing Tianzun for the Daydream.” Xiang Liu was very understanding of the current situation.
“Very well, then. They must die by our hands!” Gongyang Tu nearly ground his teeth to dust.
Xiang Liu merely sneered. To say such words when he himself was so helpless was nothing more than a joke.
A bolt of lightning crashed down from the sky. Given Gongyang Tu’s weakened Primrodial Spirit, there was already no way they could stay. Xiang Liu grabbed him and flew towards the outer region.

TWO LSLs NOW! LOSER!
Well, he was in a very vulnerable state, and they completely underestimated how strong Feng Huang’er was. It was a given they’d get their asses kicked.
