Villain: Her Imagination Makes Me Invincible

Chapter 33: What else does he want to do?

In the crimson-colored space, suspended mid-air, after dealing with Cheng Ying, Ling Xue’s gaze shifted toward the other black-robed figures.

He had already extracted information from one; as for the remaining six, someone else would certainly speak.

Ling Xue gently waved his hand.

Behind him, Baitu and the others nodded and swiftly approached.

Ling Xue’s actions clearly signaled how they should proceed.

From here on, the interrogation would be left to them!

Baitu and the others, of course, wouldn’t be merciful. As long as they had Ling Xue’s permission, killing was something they gladly indulged in.

Thus, they began using the same methods as Ling Xue, interrogating each one in turn.

“No answer? Fine. A vague answer? That’s fine too!”

“Kill!”

Even if they remained silent, the Demon Sect had plenty of ways to slowly uncover their origins.

But that would be more time-consuming and troublesome!

So, asking them saved time!

As Baitu and the others started their “interrogation,” Ling Xue’s gaze turned toward those who had been incited to act against the Demon Sect.

Noticing Ling Xue’s gaze, all those kneeling mid-air hurriedly lowered their heads. “Master, we…”

Swoosh!!!

They had no chance to explain as Ling Xue casually waved his hand, and the first move of the Heaven and Earth Sword Technique shot forth.

Countless crimson sword energies swept across the entire crimson space, eliminating everyone who had attacked earlier!

There was no hesitation and no mercy.

After killing everyone, Ling Xue’s eyes remained indifferent.

He slowly lifted his head and looked toward the top of the crimson space.

This ancient tower had eighteen levels in total!

And the place they were in now should only be the first level.

Above, there must be something extraordinary.

“Once you’ve handled everything… wait for me outside!” Ling Xue said indifferently before shooting upward toward the higher levels.

He left Baitu and the others behind to continue interrogating the remaining black-robed figures. This ancient tower had not been mentioned in the original text.

In the original story, Ye Feng hadn’t encountered this ancient tower when he arrived here. So, Ling Xue had to see for himself!

Beside him, Yun Luoxi’s beautiful eyes watched Ling Xue, who had transformed into a blood-red streak of light shooting into the sky.

She thought, What else did he plan to do?

Was there something more valuable inside this ancient tower?

Ling Xue had gone up for a reason, that much was certain!

“Master, should we…” Yun Luoxi’s gaze shifted to Liu Wenwan.

Should they… go take a look too?

“I think… it’s better not to interfere in his affairs.” Liu Wenwan naturally knew what Yun Luoxi was thinking.

Liu Wenwan continued, “But anything tied to Ling Xue rarely ended well. The corpses lying around them were proof enough. So… it was better to stay out of it.”

Even if there was something valuable up there, what could they do?

Compete with Ling Xue for it?

Could they even win?

What if they angered Ling Xue, and he decided to kill them?

Liu Wenwan was quite afraid of Ling Xue. While Ling Xue wouldn’t harm Yun Luoxi, she wasn’t so sure about herself.

Ling Xue would certainly show no mercy toward her!

Upon hearing Liu Wenwan’s words and seeing her expression, Yun Luoxi could only nod slightly.

Yun Luoxi said, “Fine, it was better not to meddle in his business.”

Although… she felt unwilling!

Today, the Heaven and Earth Sword Technique had originally been in her hands, but Ling Xue had snatched it away.

She wanted a chance to rob him back someday!

But… it seemed she would never have such a chance in her lifetime.

She would likely never be able to catch up to him in this life.

“Let’s go. This trip wasn’t without gain; at least you’ve reached the late stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm!”  Liu Wenwan said with a smile.

Although they hadn’t acquired the most valuable Heaven and Earth Sword Technique, Yun Luoxi’s strength had improved significantly. It hadn’t been a wasted journey.

Yun Luoxi nodded gently, casting one last glance upward before turning away with Liu Wenwan, leaving the ancient tower.

There was still hope for her to surpass Ling Xue, and that hope lay in the White Netherworld Flame!

If she could gather the remaining sub-flames quickly enough, she might still have a chance to take revenge on Ling Xue.

Far above in the boundless sky, as Ling Xue continued to ascend, he soon spotted something different.

It was a tiny golden point of light, like a golden star floating in the crimson sky.

Ling Xue immediately accelerated. As he drew closer, the star grew larger.

Upon closer inspection, Ling Xue realized it wasn’t a star at all!

It was the entrance to a golden space, emitting golden, twisting light.

Swoosh!

Ling Xue’s figure arrived at the entrance to the golden, twisting space, his eyes narrowing slightly as he examined the golden distortion before him.

So, this ancient tower indeed held more secrets.

This must be the entrance to the second level!

What was this ancient tower originally used for?

Why was the first level of this tower filled with such a peculiar space, yet empty?

Or had the things inside disappeared?

These were the questions that piqued Ling Xue’s curiosity.

Without hesitation, Ling Xue reached out to enter the golden space.

But as soon as he touched the golden distortion, he felt a strong resistance!

This entrance had a barrier!

Ling Xue didn’t hesitate, throwing a punch at it!

Boom!

With a dull sound, the barrier remained unshaken.

Even the immense blood-colored spiritual energy from his fist was completely absorbed and dissolved by the barrier.

“Hm?” Ling Xue’s brow furrowed. Even with his peak Divine Origin Realm strength, he couldn’t break through.

Immediately, Ling Xue activated the Heaven and Earth Sword Technique.

First move: Random Sword Kill!

Swoosh swoosh swoosh…

A vast torrent of blood-colored sword energy surged toward the golden barrier.

Unfortunately, these sword energies, which could kill a Divine Origin Realm master in an instant, vanished into the barrier as if sinking into the sea, without a ripple.

Seeing this, Ling Xue was once again surprised!

No wonder Lin Feng could only leave the Heaven and Earth Sword Technique on the first floor. Even he couldn’t move further up. How could she?

Ling Xue continued to channel the Heaven and Earth Sword Technique!

“Fifth move: Unity!”

A single blood-colored sword energy, concentrating all the previous energies, shot toward the golden barrier!

Clang!

This time, the barrier quivered slightly but still didn’t break.

Ling Xue frowned and continued his attempts…

Until he unleashed the ninth move of the Heaven and Earth Sword Technique: Sword Burial!

Finally, the barrier emitted a creaking sound.

And then… boom!

With a bang, the barrier shattered completely.

Ling Xue’s lips curled into a faint smile.

He had to use the ninth move of the Heaven and Earth Sword Technique to open this door. There must be something hidden here.

Without further hesitation, Ling Xue darted into the golden distortion.

This time, he passed through the entrance effortlessly.

And then… he found himself in a brand-new world!

A golden space was entirely different from before!
