“How do you like the taste of that? Being wounded by the magical artifact that represents the Flame Demons Palace when you’re the Flame Demons Palace Lord? It should feel really good right? But, that is not all! You can just slowly savour it all! !” The corners of Qiao Chu’s mouth hooked up in a sinister smile filled with blood chilling murder, the fire of vengeance burning bright within his eyes.
Back at the time when Jun Wu Yao had initially handed this pair of Flame Dragon Gauntlets to him, he had been a little doubtful. But when he heard through Ye Sha’s mouth the origins of the Flame Dragon Gauntlets, he could not be any more thankful to Jun Wu Yao for what he had arranged.
There wouldn’t be anything else that could be more ironic than to use the Flame Demons Palace’s most symbolic magical artifact to kill the Flame Demons Palace Lord!
The Flame Demons Palace Lord’s back was drenched with sweat while being roasted within the searing blaze, and his spirit powers was draining extremely quickly. He was shocked to find that his strength had unknowingly weakened by quite a lot, having fallen from his peak of the Silver Spirit’s fourth stage to the Silver Spirit’s second stage!
[Why is happening?]
The Flame Demons Palace Lord’s heart was struck by terror. No wonder fighting a second stage Silver Spirit like Qiao Chu had been so thorny. The spirit powers in his body was becoming more uncontrollable, and the alarming rate it was depleting at caused his heart to be filled with a kind of panic he had never experienced before.
He turned his head to look at the Dragon Slayers Palace Lord who was battling Fei Yan and saw that the Dragon Slayers Palace Lord was experiencing the exact same situation as him. The Dragon Slayers Palace Lord who had clearly been at the peak of the Silver Spirit’s third stage was caught on the defensive under the ferocious pummeling of Fei Yan who was only a Silver Spirit at the second stage!
A sense of unease immediately rose up and spread within the Flame Demons Palace Lord’s heart. As he dodged Qiao Chu’s attacks, he glanced over to see the other Palace Lords who were engaged in battle, discovering to his dismay that they were all in the same situation as him!
For some unknown reason, their powers had suddenly diminished by a highly significant amount and that was why they had only been only able to fight on par with Qiao Chu and his companions right from the beginning.
Suddenly, the Flame Demons Palace Lord unexpectedly shot an explosive blast of spirit energy to push Qiao Chu back and in that split instant, his gaze quickly turned to stare at Jun Wu Xie standing at the side.
It was only until they had left the summit’s venue and now come out under the sun that he suddenly noticed that the scented pouch hanging from Jun Wu Xie’s hip was constantly emitting waves of very faint green smoke. The smoke was an extremely thin wisp and it would be impossible to detect it if not for the sun.
“You’re the one! What have you done to us! ?” The Flame Demons Palace Lord roared fiercely at Jun Wu Xie, his face twisted up in rage.
With the resounding roar from the Flame Demons Palace, the surrounding Palace Lords who were not involved in the battle turned to look towards Jun Wu Xie one after another.
From the beginning, they had all subconsciously come to overlook that silent little young lady. It was known whether it was because the battle before their eyes had been too intense or was it just because they refused to even want to think of the little devil that had toyed with the Twelve Palaces so completely within the palm of her hand.
“Oh? You’ve finally discovered it?” Jun Wu Xie asked with an eyebrow raised, as she looked calmly at the heavily panting Flame Demons Palace Lord, before slowly pulling the unremarkable looking fragrance pouch off her hip.

Chapter 1923: “Explosive Face Slap (15)”
Jun Wu Xie undid the seal upon the fragrance pouch. A hollowed out little bronze ball was emitting faint wisps of green smoke.
A half burnt piece of triangular shaped incense then fell out from the bronze ball.
“Battles are only exciting to watch when the combatants’ powers are about the same. Don’t you think so?” Jun Wu Xie said with a light graceful laugh.
“What is that…..” The Palace Lords from the various palaces were thrown into quite a fluster.
The Flame Demons Palace Lord just almost vomited out a mouthful of blood. He forcibly pushed back down the slight metallic taste of blood that surged up to the back of his throat and through tightly clenched teeth, he said to the Palace Lords watching the battle at the side: “Are all of you idiots? How long are all of you going to watch the show until? That thing in the little wench’s scented pouch is draining our spirit powers. Do you think their objective is really only to kill the few of us here? Do you think you’ll be able to escape? Don’t forget! This filthy wench has killed the Shadow Moon Palace Lord! If the lot of you continues to watch with your hands kept in your sleeves, after we’re defeated, it’ll be your turn next!”
The Flame Demons Palace Lord’s raging roar immediately pulled the various Palace Lords back to their senses. All of them gasped as they looked at Jun Wu Xie who had a wide smile on her face, as upon that peerlessly beautiful countenance, they saw that not a single bit of that smile came from inside her but felt just a cold and chilling sense of murder.
Was what the Flame Demons Palace Lord said really true?
The little lass’ target was not just the Flame Demons Palace Lord and the others but also included the rest of the palaces?
“Jun Wu Xie….. what are you really doing?” The Green Tide Palace Lord was getting chills from the series of things that had happened. Not even in his dreams would be have thought that so many of them, the Palace Lords of the various palaces, could be toyed to such an extent by a bunch of youths, unwilling to admit that deep inside his heart, he was feeling a kind of terror towards Jun Wu Xie.
This lass here, was not human!
She’s truly a devil!
“What is it?” Jun Wu Xie asked, her head slightly tilted to one side, as she raised her hand up slowly to touch her earlobe.
Under her fingertip, a glint of silver flashed under the sun.
Even before the Green Tide Palace Lord could reply, a streak of silver light suddenly shot out from Jun Wu Xie’s hand to strike onto the Green Tide Palace Lord’s body. In a blink, vines that were about the width of a child’s arm fully covered the Green Tide Palace Lord’s body in that instant, sharp thorns that were a little finger’s length all along the vines’ encircling coils piercing right into the Green Tide Palace Lord’s flesh!
“ARRRRGH!” An anguished cry tore towards the skies.
The Green Tide Palace Lord turned into a man all covered in blood as the warm red liquid flowed down along the vines wound around his body to spill onto the ground!
“Of course I will want to kill all of you present here.” Jun Wu Xie said indifferently, her tone calm and without the slightest undulation, but the icy chill in those eyes already clearly showed her intent to kill without a doubt.
The heavy stench of blood wafted into everyone’s nose, the flowing blood so close to them.
“What are all of you still standing there in a daze for! ? Can’t all you hurry and slaughter that little wench already! ?” The Flame Demons Palace Lord roared at the bunch of Palace Lords who were stunned and dazed while being attacked by Qiao Chu.
The Palace Lords suddenly snapped back to their senses as they stared at the young lady with that chillingly cold smile, a nameless fear in their hearts spreading throughout their bodies. In order for them to live, they could not afford to just stand back and watch any longer!
At almost the same instant, the Palace Lords of the various palaces summoned up spirit powers in their bodies and it was only when they came to utilize their powers that they discovered in shock that their spirit powers had unknowingly drained by so much, their spirit powers decreased by at least two whole levels at least!
“Kill her!” Gu Yi narrowed his eyes and shouted in a low
voice. Together at the same time that the sound of his shout fell, all the Palace Lords who had been standing at the side to watch pounced at the same moment towards Jun Wu Xie!
Four figures then jumped out from behind Jun Wu Xie in that instant, to meet with the various Palace Lords who were swooping in!
Volume 20
Chapter 1924: “Explosive Face Slap (16)”
The Palace Lords of the Zen Void Palace, the Flamboyant Palace, the All Life Palace and the Pure Grace Palace were all properly stopped!
“You want to touch our Young Miss, you will have to first get pass me.” Ye Sha said coldly as he stopped the Pure Grace Palace Lord in his tracks.
“Ants and maggots like these are actually thinking of hurting our Young Miss? A whole bunch of losers.” “Ye Gu cricked his neck, his voice sounding out clearly, his eyes burning brightly. Ever since he left the Dark Emperor’s tomb, the insatiable bloodlust that had been suppressed within his heart finally broke free from its binding chains!
Standing right before his eyes, the Zen Void Palace Lord was to him already a dead man!
“Bunch of imbeciles! Come at me if you have guts! Your Great Lord is waiting here for the whole lot of you!” Drunk Lotus taunted as he smashed the empty wine jar in his hand to the ground, staring arrogantly at the Flamboyant Palace Lord.
“Heh heh, since someone’s delivering themselves onto death, we must naturally help grant them their wish.” Poppy said cradling his other elbow in his hand, the other hand held to his forehead, pretending to look highly perplexed as he looked sympathetically at the All Life Palace Lord in front of his eyes.
The four figures that had appeared so suddenly caused the four Palace Lords to be rather startled. How could they have actually not noticed the arrival of these people?
And what surprised them even more was that among these four people, there were actually two of them who were Ring Spirits! And plant type Ring Spirits at that!
“Roar!” A roar that shook the Heavens suddenly rang out.
A massive shadow stood to block the way between Jun Wu Xie and Gu Yi!
The ferocious black beast then flashed its sharp fangs and claws at Gu Yi!
“No matter who appears, we need to kill them off.” The sense of unease was growing stronger in Gu Yi’s heart. Their spirit energies had drained by quite a bit and looking at the forces that had been set up today, Jun Wu Xie must be well prepared!
It would not be that easy to deal with this time!
In an instant, they were all engaged in their own fights and intense battles rang out!
Gu Yi could already see that the leader among this group of people was Jun Wu Xie!
Get the leader when catching bandits and Gu Yi charged straight towards Jun Wu Xie aiming for the kill!
The black beast leapt at Gu Yi and Jun Wu Xie took the opportunity to retract the Face of Selvan that was coiled around the Green Tide Palace Lord. Suddenly losing the vines as support, the Green Tide Palace Lord whose body had been pierced all over with gaping holes spilling out blood immediately fell over into a pool of his own blood, not moving in the slightest!
With the Face of Selvan back in Jun Wu Xie’s hand, she flicked her hand to fling the blood off before wearing it directly on her face. Countless vines then extended out from around the mask to cover Jun Wu Xie’s entire body, from head to toe, shrouding her completely. After covering her entirely, a flash of silver brilliance suddenly shone out from the vines. When the brilliant light faded, the vines that had twined around Jun Wu Xie’s body had already disappeared without leaving a single trace, and in its place, was a shiny suit of silver armour!
The shiny armour shone with a silver brilliance, wrapping Jun Wu Xie completely within, the only thing showing was just that pair of eyes that was just terrifying to look at.
Gu Yi was startled but had no time to think about it but to summon his Ring Spirit with a flick of his hand!
It was a massive tiger type Ring Spirit with a long and sharp pair of fangs, its body twice as big as an adult elephant!
The enormous tiger let out a Heaven shaking roar and lunged straight at the black beast blocking Gu Yi, seeking to send it flying. The two beasts were tangled up together in an instant, roaring incessantly!
Gu Yi did not dare to tarry even for a moment but went charging straight towards Jun Wu Xie!
However, wearing Selvan’s armour, Jun Wu Xie’s speed had increased by not just one level!
The power of the Face of Selvan, was definitely not something any common magical artifact could compare to. It was capable of a thousand kind of transformations and every one of them would bring a massive upgrade to the user!
The spirit light in Gu Yi’s hand morphed into a saber of light and he swung it towards Jun Wu Xie, the blade leaving a trail of light in its wake!
Volume 20
Chapter 1925: “Explosive Face Slap (17)”
Several vines suddenly sprouted out from Jun Wu Xie’s armoured feet and the vines speedily weaved together to form into the shape of wings. With a flash of silver, two wings were revealed around Jun Wu Xie’s ankles in an instant!
It had taken only an instant!
The figure of Jun Wu Xie then disappeared right before Gu Yi, its speed in no way inferior to that of the Silver Spirit!
Gu Yi was slightly stunned, never expecting that Jun Wu Xie would be able to surpass him so overwhelmingly with speed.
Gu Yi’s intention to take Jun Wu Xie down was almost shattered right at that moment.
An intense battle erupted outside the summit’s venue, the crashing rumble pricking at people’s eardrums painfully.
Qiao Chu and the gang were skillfully fighting their battles with ease while Ye Gu embarked on the crushing slaughter of the Zen Void Palace Lord!
The mighty Zen Void Palace Lord in Ye Gu’s hands could not even last past three strikes before the sword wielding Ye Gu lopped his head off!
Ye Gu had just freed up his hands when he went to help lift Drunk Lotus out of his quandary.
The powers of Drunk Lotus and Poppy were not sufficient to stand against a Silver Spirit and they were both just using their unique abilities as Ring Spirits to fight their opponents, with every second that passed carrying the risk of death.
And with the deaths of the Green Tide Palace Lord and the Zen Void Palace Lord, the Palace Lords from the other palaces were suddenly greatly shaken, no longer daring to slight their enemies in the slightest as they immediately summoned out their Ring Spirits!
Qiao Chu and the gang went on to summon the Ying Yang Bear, the Double Headed Bone Snake and the other Ring Spirits as well.
In an instant, the inclusion of the Ring Spirits quickly raised the intensity of the battle to new heights!
Ye Gu had intended to go help lift Drunk Lotus and Poppy out of their predicament. But the wave of Ring Spirits that had suddenly sprung up blocked his way. He had no choice but to first deal with these Ring Spirits first before his hands would be free.
The powers of the Night Regime’s Commander in Chief was not what regular people could ever hope to compare with. With a bunch of Ring Spirits that should not be taken lightly, standing powerful and mighty before Ye Gu, they all became surprising fragile and weak!
They were quickly beaten up so badly they were not able to retaliate at all!
The pressure upon Drunk Lotus and Poppy had also lightened up greatly.
“Leave this to us. Go help Ye Sha quickly.” Drunk Lotus pushed the Flamboyant Palace Lord back with a palm strike, and turned his head to say to Ye Gu.
He had not forgotten the scene when Ye Sha had died back at the Cloudy Peaks. Even though Jun Wu Xie had not spoken about it before, but Ye Sha’s “death” to her, had been such a great blow.
Ye Gu arched up an eyebrow, his face amused as he looked at Drunk Lotus.
“Who did you say I should go help?”
“Of course it’s Ye…..” Drunk Lotus was just beginning to shout when he suddenly saw the Pure Grace Palace Lo
rd being pressed down to the ground and pummeled mercilessly. In an instant, Drunk Lotus was stunned.
“He…. Didn’t even an Elder…..” Drunk Lotus could still remember it clearly. The one who killed Ye Sha back at that time, had been the Flame Demons Palace’s Elder.
But….. Ye Sha was facing an opponent of the powerful Palace Lord level. How….. was he fighting even more ferociously?
“Kid, you had better not underestimate our Night Regime. Although Ye Sha cannot be compared to me, but he is still one of the fiercest warriors of the Night Regime. I have heard about what happened before. In order to locate Lord Jue, he had not rested a moment throughout that thousand years, and his devil spirit had long been drained and depleted completely. Moreover, when the incident befall Lord Jue, he and Ye Mei were at Lord Jue’s side and they were also severely injured, never having gotten the chance to nurse themselves. That was how that piece of trash managed to come out tops that time. Otherwise, if a mere Elder of the Twelve Palaces was to really think he can kill one of the ferocious warriors of my Night Regime? That has got to be a joke!” Ye Gu said, his face filled with pride.
Within their Night Regime, there wasn’t a single weak person in there. Drag any single one out and he would be able to hang up an Elder from the various palace in a beating!
Drunk Lotus’ mouth hung open and coincidentally, in a moment of breather during his battle, Ye Sha turned his head to look at them. Seeing the stunned look on Drunk Lotus’ face, he was slightly puzzled, but nodded politely at him, before he continued to pummel at the Pure Grace Palace Lord.
Volume 20
Chapter 1926: “Explosive Face Slap (18)”
The Palace Lords of the Twelve Palaces just wanted to cry. Ever since they took over the position of Palace Lords over their respective palaces, they had never had to be in such a quandary, where not only had they been outschemed by a bunch of youths, they were even losing out in battle. The various Palace Lords who had always seen themselves as holier than thou were now given one big tight slap across the face by Jun Wu Xie and her companions. The slap had been delivered quick and sudden, a resounding one that slapped them silly in an instant.
