Chapter 1907: Chapter 1140: Unpredictable Ghost Sect—Hah, Truly Annoying!

Although Zhongli Yue had left, the Array of Taoyuan Mountain was still in place. Even though Yue Yao couldn’t open the Array of Taoyuan Mountain, she could rely on it to set up a camp, so she didn’t have to worry about enemies attacking from the Taoyuan Mountain direction, only needing to guard against other directions.

Yue Yao had brought three hundred demon beasts here, two hundred of which were from the Spirit Deer Clan, while the remaining hundred were demon beasts from various demon clans in the Spirit Origin.

However, over this month, Yue Yao had gathered over a thousand demon beasts and Foundation Establishment Cultivators, as well as tens of thousands of Mutant Beasts.

Upon learning that Yue Yao was here, many demon beasts and cultivators came to join her voluntarily, partly because Yue Yao was once one of the eight elders of the Wanhua Demon Court, a top-tier Demon King. Additionally, Yue Yao’s reputation was quite good, unlike other Demon Kings who were brutal and had no evil deeds.

So many demon clans and Human Race Cultivators chose to pledge allegiance to her, willing to follow her in fighting against the ghost soldiers of the Unpredictable Ghost Sect.

Of course, the scattered soldiers and defeated generals gathered in this manner were nothing more than a rabble, and their actual combat effectiveness remained to be seen.

But in any case, Yue Yao had assembled a team of her own.

Xing Nan and his ghost soldier team hadn’t even reached Yue Yao’s camp when they ran into a patrol of the demon clan.

The moment they met, a battle erupted. Initially, the ghost soldier team had the upper hand, but soon the support from demon beasts surged in from all directions.

This ghost soldier team’s strength was not strong to begin with, and they were soon wiped out by the hundreds of demon beasts.

Xing Nan watched the scene from within the Void, clearly observing, but he didn’t take action. After all, it was just a few dozen ghost soldiers, not worth his personal effort. Besides, his purpose in coming here wasn’t for the demon beasts in front of him, but for the Demon King or Golden Core Cultivator behind them.

"A demon beast, it seems. It must be a Demon King, but which one? To have such courage to oppose my Unpredictable Ghost Sect!"

Xing Nan gazed at the woodland scene, lost in thought.

There were many Demon Kings in the Wanhua Mountain Range. In the past, there were thirty to forty known Demon Kings, and many more hidden in the shadows.

The known Demon Kings had mostly been cleaned out, either slaughtered by them or driven out of the Wanhua Mountain Range. However, the remaining Demon Kings were actually more difficult to deal with.

Xing Nan thought for a while and decided to investigate and find out who this elusive Demon King was.

But before he could take action, he suddenly sensed something unusual.

His heart trembled, and he quickly spread out his Spiritual Sense.

"Are you looking for me?" Yue Yao had already appeared before him, an aura of pure white enveloping her body, making her look incomparably pure.

"Who are you?" Xing Nan was greatly shocked.

Yue Yao let go of her aura, revealing her true form, her delicate face and pure eyes.

"Don’t you recognize me?"

Xing Nan looked at her, cold sweat streaming down his forehead. How could he not recognize Yue Yao?

One of the eight elders of the Wanhua Demon Court, perhaps not a top-tier expert in the entire Wanhua Domain, but within the Wanhua Mountain Range, Yue Yao definitely ranked among the top figures.

Among the three major elders and the eight elders, aside from the three major, Yue Yao, despite her harmless appearance, ranked among the top three of the eight.

The Unpredictable Ghost Sect had fought with the Wanhua Demon Court for so long, naturally having already learned all about the high-level members of the Wanhua Demon Court.

"How are you here?" Xing Nan struggled to say.

In the dense fog of the Void, at some point, scattered starlight had begun to drift, along with a bright moon silently emerging, its cold moonlight casting the surroundings of the Void into a serene and beautiful scene.

But Xing Nan knew that hidden within this serenity was infinite killing intent. If he dared to make any move, he could fall at any moment.

The Void, like ink spilled out, the outline of the jade plate, like quenched silver, emanated a hazy, clear radiance, tinting the dense fog of the Void a pale silver-gray, as if a layer of faint silver mist had been scattered even within the depths of the Void.

As soon as Xing Nan spoke, a concentrated moonlight appeared in the tranquil night sky, wrapping around him like a rope.

No time for more words, Xing Nan immediately retreated, pulling out a black, sizable flag.

The flag waved, gusts of yin wind surged, countless ghostly shadows crowded forth.

"Since you recognize me, why dare to resist?" Yue Yao’s cold voice echoed in Xing Nan’s mind like a curse.

In the next moment, he felt himself being shackled, his body stiffening.

His Lifebound Spiritual Artifact was also bound by the cold moonlight, as if it were just an ordinary object.

Yue Yao reached out a hand, and the silver moon above descended, falling into her hand.

That wasn’t the moon, but her spiritual artifact, the ’Moon Soul Jade Plate.’

As a Demon King, she wasn’t supposed to excel at using spiritual treasures, but the Moon Soul Jade Plate was the sacred artifact of the Spirit Deer Clan, so Yue Yao wielded it effortlessly.

"Alas, I don’t wish to be anyone’s enemy, yet you’ve forced me into unrest!"

"Unpredictable Ghost Sect, haha, truly detestable!"

A streak of silver light swept out, slicing Xing Nan’s body instantaneously in half.

Xing Nan’s eyes were filled with terror, he wanted to say something, but his Divine Soul seemed half-frozen, unable to use Spiritual Sense to communicate.

And so, he watched helplessly as his Daoist Body shattered, his Mana dissipated, his aura extinguished, and himself stepping onto the path of death.
