Ji Changye’s pupils suddenly contracted!

The next moment, an immense force hit his back.

A large amount of demonic energy exploded from Ji Changye’s body. He was blasted away and crashed heavily into the mountain wall at the edge of the valley.

“Ugh!”

With a muffled groan, Ji Changye spat out a mouthful of blood.

Although the demonic energy protected him, his spine still broke, and his organs were shaken, resulting in severe injuries.

“Soul Reflection!”

Ji Changye immediately muttered under his breath. A large expanse of black energy surged, and Xu Ying’s soul faintly appeared, reflecting his body. In an instant, his injuries vanished.

However, Ji Changye’s face noticeably turned paler.

“Damn it!”

Ji Changye turned to look back, only to see a person standing there in a white robe, with a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.

It was Jiang Heng!

“This Jiang Heng…” Ji Changye’s expression darkened.

Although he was interrogating the soul, he hadn’t completely let his guard down. Yet, the opponent managed to get behind him without him noticing.

Moreover…

Ji Changye stared tightly at Jiang Heng. His eyes couldn’t help but narrow slightly.

“This aura… It’s just a step away from Radiant Moon!”

“Ji Changye of the Demon Sky Palace?” Jiang Heng chuckled lightly. “I felt someone seems to have been chasing me all this time. I didn’t expect it to be you, Demon Cultivator.”

Ji Changye spoke, “You’ve been in the Secret Realm for only ten days, yet your cultivation has increased so much!”

Jiang Heng laughed heartily, “Surprised? This is my talent!”

“Talent? I don’t think so. The one who died here is True Yang Sect’s Du Chixin!

You, a disciple of Taishang Sect, kill whoever you meet regardless of right or wrong. Have you turned from right to demonic, cultivating some Demon Technique?”

Jiang Heng replied disdainfully, “Demon Technique? I really look down on those techniques of you evil beings!”

“Look down on? You have quite the tone!” Ji Changye suddenly remembered something and sneered, “I suddenly recall, more than a year ago when Chou Wuliang and I went to Taishang Sect for a debate, your reluctance to make a move was quite laughable!”

Jiang Heng’s face stiffened, and his expression turned dark.

At the debate more than a year ago, Mu Kexian was in seclusion, Feng Xuanqing was out seeking opportunities, and He Zhengyuan had not yet been promoted to the core.

Chou Wuliang suddenly brought people over for a “debate.” As a core member at the time, Jiang Heng stood up to “receive” them but didn’t immediately engage.

After all, the Three Heroes were at the peak of their strength and fame. No disciple from any sect could surpass them.

If he had stepped up, he would have likely been defeated, losing to someone from the Demon Sect!

Fortunately, Zhang Chunyi returned just in time, sparing Jiang Heng from making a move.

However, his hesitant and fearful appearance made Chou Wuliang and others look down on him.

So even to this day, before the sword fight, neither Chou Wuliang nor Ji Changye took Jiang Heng seriously.

“Things are different now…” Jiang Heng laughed in anger, his face gradually showing a sinister look. “Wasn’t Chou Wuliang very arrogant? Now, hasn’t he already died by my hands! Of course, since you’ve bumped into me, your fate will be the same, Ji Changye!” Searᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“What did you say?!” Ji Changye’s eyes widened suddenly.

Ji Changye had been waiting to see Jiang Heng lose his temper. He did get angry, but his latter words shocked Ji Changye.

“I said, Chou Wuliang has already died by my hand. My cultivation wouldn’t be where it is without his help, hahaha!” Jiang Heng laughed and flipped his hand, throwing out a Golden Silk Black Cloud Robe.

Ji Changye caught the robe and, after one look, confirmed that it was indeed Chou Wuliang’s robe!

“Chou Wuliang… dead?” Ji Changye’s pupils trembled violently.

He never expected that Chou Wuliang would be killed by Jiang Heng!

“Whew…”

After a long while, Ji Changye exhaled deeply, his eyes closing and reopening, already calm.

The shock and disbelief in his eyes were gone, replaced by a rising killing intent!

Jiang Heng laughed, “It seems you want revenge? I heard you and Chou Wuliang entered the Demon Sky Palace together. You must have had a deep bond.”

Ji Changye looked at Jiang Heng with growing fervor in his eyes, “Since you’re waiting here, aren’t you planning to kill me to enhance your cultivation?

You’re in such a rush that if I’m not mistaken, killing another one or two people will push you through to Radiant Moon, right?”

The corner of Jiang Heng’s mouth curled up, “So, I need you to help me break through.”

Ji Changye coldly replied, “Desire without restraint. Even if no one kills you, you will go mad in the future!”

“Hahaha, you needn’t worry about that. Before that happens, you will first become my energy!” Jiang Heng’s smile widened. He raised his hand, causing the void to tremble. A Xuanhuang Dragon Capturing Hand, dozens of feet long, materialized in the air and slammed towards Ji Changye!

Compared to the time he fought Mu Kexian, this Xuanhuang Dragon Capturing Hand seemed even stronger!

Ji Changye’s expression grew solemn. A black light spread from his feet as he immediately unfolded the Demon King Domain. Black as ink, the demonic energy surged, transforming into Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng clasped his hand into a fist, gathering the terrifying earth element, and punched directly at the Xuanhuang Dragon Capturing Hand descending from above…

Outside the Secret Realm.

Experts from the Ten Sects and disciples from various sects waited atop the Heavenly Mountain.

Several days passed with no sign or movement.

Although the King Level Venerables and Elder Zhuoyang remained calm and collected, the young disciples from various sects could not stay that way.
