Chapter 2499: Chapter 2500: Portrait of a Woman
However, after Lord Yuehua condensed the Hua Moon, he placed it above Yunxiao City instead of carrying it with him.
Part of the reason is that his own power is too strong, and no one dares to provoke him even without using Hua Moon, his ultimate move.
But more importantly, he wanted it to absorb the offerings of the people to form another incarnation of himself.
Yet today, Lord Yuehua directly plucked down the moon to deal with this evil creature.
This shows just how much of a threat the Blade of Rules is to him.
The Hua Moon hovered above Lord Yuehua’s head, enveloped in layers of resilient radiance, which faintly contained powerful Rule Power.
This made the descent of the long sword slow down even more.
Moreover, it sparked countless sparks during its descent, as if it was rubbing against something hard.
In the blink of an eye, the long sword was completely worn away.
Seeing the unfavorable situation, the evil creature finally abandoned the sword and turned to flee.
But how could the enraged Lord Yuehua let it go? He pointed a finger.
Boom!
Countless rays of light exploded from the evil creature’s body.
This time, it couldn’t possibly resurrect, as the explosion was so intense that it was reduced to its most basic particles.
But this wasn’t the end. Lord Yuehua rubbed his hands and crushed the long sword with layers of Rule Power, reducing it to dust and erasing its existence.
After finishing all this, Lord Yuehua finally let out a long breath and turned to look out the window.
"Still not showing yourself?"
With his words, a light laugh echoed in the void, "Plucking the moon with one hand, so this is your ultimate form!"
"Enough with the compliments, show yourself already. You’ve been hiding for so long, surely you’re not here just to flatter me!"
As he spoke, Lord Yuehua raised his hands to make a Seal Decision, and the light sphere that hovered above his head instantly disappeared.
Then, the Hua Moon reappeared in the sky, illuminating the universe.
The Yunxiao City, which was unsettled due to the sudden disappearance of the Hua Moon, gradually calmed down.
Meanwhile, a ripple appeared in the void above the small building of the City Lord’s Mansion, revealing a figure.
Clad in white like snow, his presence like jade.
It was Xue An.
Lord Yuehua seemed unsurprised and said calmly, "To be honest, I didn’t expect you to help me."
Xue An chuckled, "I didn’t expect it either, as I came here with other intentions."
Lord Yuehua gave Xue An a deep look and then said solemnly, "Thank you!"
Xue An waved his hand, "No need to thank me. After all, compared to our personal grudges, the evil creatures are more important."
As he mentioned, Xue An, who was in a lurking state, originally did not want to intervene, but when he saw that the servant dared to use Rule Power, he changed his mind.
Having dealt with evil creatures numerous times, he understood the power of Rule Power.
Anything possessing Rule Power is invariably a high-level existence among evil creatures.
And that these evil creatures would use Rule Power against Lord Yuehua indirectly illustrated his importance.
Therefore, Xue An promptly decided to assist.
After all, Xue An couldn’t just stand by idly and let a powerful individual be tainted by evil creatures due to personal grudges.
Knowing this logic as well, Lord Yuehua nodded slightly, then said.
"In that case, please take a seat and let’s have a chat!"
"Alright!"
Xue An did not stand on ceremony and landed within the room.
By now, the small building had been damaged by the battle, with the floor full of cracks and dents.
Yet at this moment, Lord Yuehua waved his hand, and countless moonlight instantly attached to the small building.
Then everything swiftly restored.
In the blink of an eye, the previously vanished rooftop reappeared, and the floor regained its smoothness.
Unmoved by the scene, Xue An merely gave a faint smile and took a seat.
As a Saint, Lord Yuehua having such power was only natural.
Lord Yuehua also sat opposite Xue An, and after a moment of facing each other, Lord Yuehua spoke.
"Your growth rate is truly astonishing; it’s not been long since we last met, yet you’ve already proved yourself as a Saint!"
Xue An smiled, "You’ve also made significant progress."
Lord Yuehua shook his head, "That doesn’t matter, because with my talent, this is the limit of my realm. But you’re different; at your rate, this is far from your journey’s end."
Xue An was noncommittal, "Why are these evil creatures after you?"
Lord Yuehua gave a wry smile, "Since the news of the Bai Family conference being held here spread, I, as the City Lord, have become a target for all. Not just evil creatures, essentially everyone desires my position."
As he spoke, Lord Yuehua’s expression became solemn, "Xue An, why have you come here in the dead of night?"
"It’s simple, I want to use it!"
Saying so, Xue An pointed to the floor beneath them.
Lord Yuehua immediately shook his head, "As expected, you’re after this great formation, but I’m sorry, I cannot lend it to you!"
"Oh? Why?" Xue An raised an eyebrow.
"Because this great formation was built by the Formation God of the Yin and Yang Clan, and everything here is connected to him. No one outside the Yin and Yang Clan can use it."
Xue An looked at Lord Yuehua.
Lord Yuehua remained calm.
After a long silence, Xue An finally nodded, "If that’s the case, I won’t press the matter."
Saying this, he turned to look at the table, then involuntarily trembled.
For atop the table lay a piece of Xuan paper, upon which was a portrait of a woman.
Though unfinished, the likeness was already vivid.
Most crucially, Xue An noticed the woman in this portrait bore such a striking resemblance to Jian San Shen Suqian.
Noticing Xue An’s look of astonishment, Lord Yuehua lifted the Xuan paper from the table and sighed softly.
"The one depicted here is an old acquaintance of mine, and she is closely related to you. I shall gift this to you!"
Lord Yuehua handed over the Xuan paper.
Xue An took it, examined it briefly, and found that though the woman shared many resemblances with Jian San, she was not her.
There were subtle differences, especially in the eyes.
It was clear Lord Yuehua had put great effort into the eyes, making them captivating.
Yet those eyes held a trace of faint sorrow, something Jian San never possessed.
