I am the villain, plundering the destiny of the heroine.

"Heaven-shaking Seal!"

Facing Li Xu's fierce attack, Liu Cang had to swallow his anger even if he lost a lot of teeth. He then used his backhand to sacrifice a large seal with brilliant light to meet the attack.

"boom!"

The seal's fate was exactly the same as that of the shield magic weapon just now. It was completely unable to withstand the sharpness of the Daluo Sword and was shattered into pieces in just one encounter.

"How dare you appear in front of me!"

"Aren't you being very shameless?"

"You are not trying to provoke me!"

"You were the one who suggested my mother's name!"

Li Xu seemed to be completely blinded by the flames of hatred. Every time he roared, he would use all his strength to slash at Liu Cang with his sword, as if he wanted to cut the other party into pieces.

Liu Cang could neither defeat the sharpness of the Daluo Sword head-on nor could he dodge faster than Li Xu's teleportation. He could only continuously use magic weapons to resist. However, no matter how precious and powerful the magic weapon he used was, it could only block one attack from the Daluo Sword before being chopped into pieces. In less than half a minute, the magic weapons accumulated in his ring for decades were quickly used up, and he became more and more terrified.

...Is there really a possibility that I will die at Li Xu's hands? !
"Your Majesty, help me!"

At the critical moment of life and death, Liu Cang could not care about anything else and hurriedly sent a message to Emperor Yan for help.

From the time when the imperial edict was issued to the entire imperial capital until now, Emperor Yan has already absorbed enough energy and blood through the Sealed Heaven and Forbidden Land. He was just about to start replacing the bones and blood of Zhou Lingyu and Zhou Furong and taking over their bodies, but he saw that Liu Cang was being defeated by Li Xu's fierce attack, so he had to put the matter of taking over their bodies on hold again.

He and Liu Cang are in a relationship of mutual dependence at the moment. If Liu Cang is really killed by Li Xu, with the combat power currently displayed by Li Xu, it will definitely pose a fatal threat to him.

"You've really grown me into another Li Tianai!"

"But even if Li Tianai comes here, don't think of stopping me from extending my life!"

"Everyone who stands in my way must die!"

Thinking hatefully inwardly, Emperor Yan activated the Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Destroying Formation to its maximum extent, and exerted all the power of the formation that devoured the blood and essence of all the citizens in the city on Li Xu alone.

"Boom boom boom!"

This scene seemed familiar to Li Xu. When he killed the leader of Tianfu Sect in Jinling City three days ago, he was also subjected to the power of all the magic arrays by the other party. He felt as if his body had turned into a reservoir that had burst its dam, and a large amount of essence and blood poured out of his body uncontrollably, causing his entire aura to drop sharply.

...well done!

Liu Cang felt Li Xu's listlessness most directly. Seeing his blood and essence leaking out crazily, the attacks in his hands instantly became several levels weaker. He was no longer as unstoppable as before, and he could break one of his top-level magic weapons with one sword.

"It takes two people, Emperor Yan and I, to join forces to deal with him!"

Liu Cang felt deeply humiliated and afraid, and was about to take advantage of Li Xu's blood and sperm leakage to launch a counterattack -

"Yu'er!"

Li Xu desperately squeezed out the remaining strength in his body and roared towards the outside of the barrier.

Emperor Yan and Liu Cang were both stunned, thinking that Li Xu saw that defeat was inevitable and wanted to seek help from Luo Meiyu outside the barrier.

"Thanks to you, Yu'er is being restrained by the leader of Liuyun Sect!"

Emperor Yan showed a look of resentment on his face. While he was activating the Heaven Sealing Formation to devour Li Xu's blood, he sarcastically said, "Yu'er and the leader of Liuyun Sect are both practicing the Burning Fire Technique. They will definitely not be able to save you in a short time!"

Li Xu ignored Emperor Yan's ridicule and continued to roar word by word outside the barrier: "Yu'er...be careful of the baby in your belly!"

Emperor Yan and Liu Cang were stunned again.

...What child should Yu'er be careful of? How could there be a child in her belly?

Although Emperor Yan was extremely in love with Luo Meiyu, Luo Meiyu had always regarded him as her savior and had never done anything that exceeded etiquette with him. Therefore, Emperor Yan thought that he knew better than anyone how pure and innocent Luo Meiyu was.

Just when Emperor Yan thought Li Xu was talking nonsense——

"Your Majesty! So your belly is so big because you are pregnant with His Majesty's child!"

A sharp and unexpected cry came from Eunuch Wu outside the barrier.

Since Li Xu teleported to the Yangxin Palace, Eunuch Wu could not enter the barrier and could only lead a group of golden-armored imperial guards to help the leader of Liuyun Sect to contain Luo Meiyu.

In order to hide her obvious pregnancy, Luo Meiyu specially changed into a loose long skirt before coming to the Yangxin Palace. At first, Eunuch Wu did not feel anything unusual about Luo Meiyu, thinking that she was just a little fatter than before. But when he heard Li Xu's roar from inside the barrier, Eunuch Wu looked at Luo Meiyu's belly carefully in surprise, and then he saw the fact that she was pregnant, and blurted out anxious dissuasion:
"Your Majesty is confused!"

"Since the Queen is pregnant with His Majesty's child, how can she help Li Xu, an outsider, to deal with His Majesty?!"

Luo Meiyu was in perfect harmony with Li Xu after all, and with the tacit understanding between them, she knew that his disciple would not remind her to be careful of the baby in her belly for no reason at the critical moment of life and death. There must be some hidden meaning in his words.

...Xiao Xu is no match for Emperor Yan in the barrier. Does he want me to help him disrupt Emperor Yan's mind?

Luo Meiyu was of course aware of how much Emperor Yan loved her, and she also understood that there was an insurmountable gap in cultivation between Li Xu and Emperor Yan. Now that she was restrained by the leader of Liuyun Sect, she could not enter the barrier to join Li Xu in dealing with Emperor Yan, so she could only provide him with assistance in this way.

"I am pregnant with Xiaoxu's child, it has nothing to do with Emperor Yan!"

Luo Meiyu responded coldly to Eunuch Wu, who was so shocked that he immediately gave up. Even the leader of Liuyun Sect froze.

……

……

"Your Majesty is confused!"

"Since the Queen is pregnant with His Majesty's child, how can she help Li Xu, an outsider, to deal with His Majesty?!"

The moment he heard the anxious dissuasion coming from Eunuch Wu outside the barrier, Emperor Yan's eyes suddenly widened in surprise.

Pregnant!

Yu'er is actually pregnant!

But Yu'er never allowed me to touch her. How could she get pregnant with a child from another man besides me?

"I am pregnant with Xiaoxu's child, it has nothing to do with Emperor Yan!"

Luo Meiyu's cold and heartless words came one after another and reached Emperor Yan's ears the next moment.

If these words came from Li Xu's mouth, Emperor Yan would never believe it even if he was beaten to death!
But this was Luo Meiyu's own admission. Even if Emperor Yan was unwilling to believe it, it was as if a bolt from the blue exploded in his mind, and he was completely blank for a moment.

"I see……"

"No wonder Yu'er chose to help Li Xu deal with me..."

"She had actually been slept with by Li Xu a long time ago..."

"Earlier in Changle Palace, Yu'er clearly said that she believed in me and would help me deal with Li Chunfeng - I'm afraid that at that time, Li Xu was beside Yu'er and had sex with her, keeping me in the dark..."

Before Emperor Yan recovered from his despair and heartache, Li Xu seized the opportunity when he was distracted and did not absorb his essence and blood, and decisively mobilized all the spiritual power in his sea of ​​​​qi, pouring it into the Daluo Sword, and slashed Liu Cang with the second time and space slash:

“Die!”...That kind of slash again!
Feeling the destructive aura spreading out from the Daluo Sword again, Liu Cang almost died of fright.

He had just witnessed the power of the Time and Space Slash. Even the light curtain that gathered the blood and energy of tens of millions of people was destroyed by Li Xu's full-strength sword. Facing the terrifying sword light alone at this moment, Liu Cang really did not have the confidence to withstand it.

"Zhou Yan! Why are you so distracted at this time instead of joining me in dealing with Li Xu?"

"You're trying to kill me on purpose by giving him a chance to fight me!"

While cursing at Emperor Yan, Liu Cang retreated hastily, trying to avoid the edge of the Daluo Sword.

Emperor Yan finally came to his senses at this time, but it was too late for him to devour Li Xu's essence and blood to stop him. He watched Li Xu slash at Liu Cang with a terrifying sword light similar to the previous one.

The next moment, Emperor Yan and Liu Cang saw a scene that was beyond their expectations.

Li Xu was clearly aiming his sword at Liu Cang, but the terrifying sword light he emitted penetrated the void and instantly descended before Emperor Yan's eyes in an extremely incredible way.

"broken!"

"Li Xu is coming for me!"

This was Emperor Yan’s last thought before his death.

The Time and Space Slash moved in front of him in an instant, and broke through the layers of qi and blood surrounding his body like a whirlwind. Finally, with a loud "bang", it split him in half vertically from the forehead to the lower body.

……

……

At the same time, outside the sealed heaven and earth area high in the sky above the Imperial Capital City.

As a mysterious rhythm of time and space spread out, visible ripples appeared in the void above the Sealing Heaven and Earth Formation, and a small warship shot out from the depths of the ripples.

On the deck of the warship, the three barbarian generals all looked confused and stunned, not understanding what was going on.

Just now, they were thousands of miles away and saw a streak of red light rising into the sky from the Imperial Capital City. They were wondering what kind of turmoil had occurred in the Imperial Capital City. Then, they suddenly felt their belly buttons being pulled hard by a hook. The world in front of their eyes began to spin. When they regained their vision the next moment, they had already arrived at the source of the red light.

An extremely huge scarlet light shield stretched across their noses, covering the entire Imperial Capital City, and the entire city was filled with a sinister evil aura like a sea of ​​blood and corpses.

"Your Majesty... did we just enter the teleportation array?"

A barbarian general looked at Ji Weiming cautiously and asked tentatively.

Apart from the teleportation array, the three of them couldn't think of any other way that could allow them to travel thousands of miles.

Ji Weiming frowned and stared at the light shield, and did not tell her three subordinates that she had just used the Daluo Time and Space Method to take the three of them through the void.

Like Li Xu, she also mastered five heavenly-level skills, namely the Daluo Time and Space Law, the Shocking Heaven and Earth Art, the Thousand Miles of Ice, the Six Paths of Devouring the Sky, and the Burning Fire Art. Moreover, all these five heavenly-level skills were taught to her by Li Xu himself 20,000 years ago.

"This barrier can isolate the rhythm of time and space..."

Ji Weiming sensed a strange force that repelled the rhythm of time and space in the Sealing Heaven and Jedi Formation. Even if she could merge into the void, she could not teleport directly into it.

"I wonder if Jiuri is in danger now..."

Ji Weiming was concerned about Li Xu's safety, so without thinking, she stretched out her hand to the surface of the Sealing Heaven and Earth Formation, and was about to pour the rhythm of time and space into it to penetrate it -

"Boom!"

The giant light shield suddenly shattered without any warning, revealing the Imperial Capital City below to Ji Weiming and others.

……

……

"what!"

"Dead? Zhou Yan died just like that?!"

In the ruins of the Yangxin Palace, Liu Cang looked at the huge deep pit created by the sword light not far away. He only saw Zhou Lingyu and Zhou Furong fainted due to the aftermath, but did not see the figure of Emperor Yan.

At first, Liu Cang thought that Emperor Yan used some kind of life-saving trump card to avoid Li Xu's attack at the last moment. However, the roaring sound of the magic circle collapsing in his ears announced to him that Emperor Yan was dead.

There are only two ways to break the Sealing Heaven and Earth Formation. One is to find out the five formation bases hidden by Emperor Yan in the Imperial Capital City and destroy them all. The other is to kill Emperor Yan, the leader of the formation.

Just like three days ago, when Li Xu killed the Tianfu Sect Master in Jinling City, as soon as the Tianfu Sect Master died, the Sealing Heaven and Earth Formation lost its leader and collapsed immediately.

"so close!"

"Fortunately, Li Xu's sword was aimed at Zhou Yan, not me..."

"Even Zhou Yan died in his hands. If he had swung his sword at me, my fate would have been even more miserable than Zhou Yan's..."

Thinking of this, Liu Cang felt a sense of relief for surviving the disaster, and beads of cold sweat kept dripping from his forehead.

He no longer had the courage to fight Li Xu, and was about to turn around and flee -

"Pfft!"

After launching two time-space slashes in a short period of time, and having most of his blood and energy devoured by the Heaven-Sealing Absolute Earth Formation, Li Xu's body was already overdrawn to the limit. His calves were so weak and trembling that he could hardly stand, and he fell to one knee in the ruins.

"Ok?"

Liu Cang turned his head in shock and saw that Li Xu's face was as pale as gold paper. Although his eyes were still staring at him, his whole body was shaking violently, as if he was trying his best to maintain his current kneeling position.

"You can't hold on any longer!"

Liu Cang thought of something, and his originally fearful expression instantly turned into surprise, and he gave up the idea of ​​escaping.

"You can achieve this with the third-grade cultivation. Even if you are Li Chunfeng's son, I am willing to call you the strongest below the first-grade!"

"But unfortunately, this is all you can do. Next, I will take you to see Xiaorou!"

Although his words were full of murderous intent, Liu Cang stood still without moving, his eyes still full of vigilance.

He was worried that Li Xu was deliberately showing weakness to him, or that Li Xu was indeed on the verge of death but still reserved the strength to fight to the death.

After all, Li Xu even took advantage of Luo Meiyu's pregnancy to disturb Emperor Yan's mind. Given his mentality, it was only natural for him to deliberately show weakness and try to kill himself.

"…This is your last chance to kill me."

Li Xu panted, "ho ho", and saw that Liu Cang was extremely defensive against him at the moment. He forced himself to stay conscious and deliberately played the empty city trick to provoke him to take action:
"If you fail to kill me today, I will find you no matter where you hide in the future... I will cut you into pieces to comfort my mother's soul in heaven!"

Liu Cang couldn't help but take a step back.

The weaker Li Xu showed to him, and the more he tried to provoke him to attack, the less Liu Cang dared to take risks, and the more he suspected that Li Xu was trying to trick him into getting close. (End of this chapter)
