Sole Sword Supremacy-Chapter 534 - 538: Comfort and Healing

"Thank you, Senior Sister Luo!"

Wang Junze expressed his gratitude once more, then continued, "The critical task requires attention. I must trouble Senior Sister Luo to lead our sect’s disciples together to eliminate those from the Netherworld Mansion. However, as for the other Demon Cultivators, there’s no need to pursue them. Brother Pei, you take the people from the Four Seas Commerce Association and assist Senior Sister Luo in taking action."

Having eliminated the Sect Leader of the Corpse Demon Sect, the greatest obstacle in this battle was resolved. Now, with the assistance of the Profound Moon Sword Sect disciples, the ensuing fight posed no real difficulty.

The only thing to be cautious about is providing a way out for the other Demon Cultivators and, according to Pei Haoran’s previous promise, offering sufficient benefits.

In this way, the Demon Cultivators involved in this battle will spread the news, serving as evidence for more Demon Cultivators to trust Wang Junze.

Otherwise, the arrival of the Profound Moon Sword Sect disciples would only cause panic among these Demon Cultivators in Netherworld City, and there might even be a chance for them to counterattack Wang Junze while Qu Lishang has not returned.

With so many Demon Cultivators in Netherworld City, even with Luo Qingxuan’s help, it would be impossible to resist if they truly went mad.

"Understood!"

Luo Qingxuan naturally did not question Wang Junze’s words. She didn’t even ask why before directly instructing the disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect to carry them out.

In the grand scheme of things, in less than a quarter of an hour, all the experts and soldiers of the Netherworld Mansion were completely slaughtered!

During this process, many from the Netherworld Mansion actually wanted to surrender, but Wang Junze had no mercy this time, leaving no survivors and completely wiping them out.

In fact, apart from initially assisting a bit, Luo Qingxuan didn’t need to intervene personally and retreated directly to Wang Junze’s side.

Not until all this ended did the taut string in Wang Junze’s heart finally relax.

"Junior Brother Wang!"

Noticing Wang Junze’s unusual state, Luo Qingxuan’s heart tightened, and she quickly stepped forward to hold Wang Junze.

"Senior Sister Luo, find a quiet place... I’m about to collapse."

With a lowered voice, Wang Junze forced himself to speak again.

Forcing the activation of the Great Nether Mirror just now ultimately pushed Wang Junze to the brink of collapse. Even the Great Nether Mirror found it difficult to suppress his state anymore. It wasn’t that the Great Nether Mirror wasn’t powerful enough, but rather Wang Junze hadn’t fully refined it, unable to harness its true power.

In fact, had Luo Qingxuan not arrived in time, Wang Junze would likely have been in mortal danger.

Without the slightest hesitation, Luo Qingxuan directly picked up Wang Junze and flew towards the nearest side hall. Naturally, without needing any instructions, disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect moved forward to guard the entrance.

As for Huang Siyu and Yang Hong, though concerned about Wang Junze’s safety, they ultimately didn’t dare to approach and could only follow Pei Haoran to inventory the warehouse of the Netherworld Mansion and handle other matters.

Honestly, it wasn’t just Huang Siyu; even Peng Ru wouldn’t dare approach in such a situation.

To be precise, apart from the core disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect, Luo Qingxuan didn’t trust anyone else. Even if Peng Ru approached recklessly, she might be directly slain. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

...

"Senior Sister Luo, my injuries are severe. Now I’m barely sustaining with the Great Nether Mirror. To heal, I must withdraw its power, which means... my injuries will burst forth instantly. Ordinary elixirs won’t help; you must activate the Life and Death Contract immediately, or both of our lives will be in jeopardy."

Even though he was extremely exhausted, Wang Junze still forced himself to remind her.

There was no choice; the Great Nether Mirror stabilized Wang Junze’s injuries deceptively. Wang Junze’s real injuries were far more severe than they appeared. If underestimated, it could indeed be fatal.

Moreover, it wasn’t just him; due to the Life and Death Contract, Luo Qingxuan might also perish alongside him if danger arose.

Luo Qingxuan didn’t even have time to ask what the Great Nether Mirror’s deal was before promptly agreeing.

With a slight movement of her mind, in the next moment, the Great Nether Mirror abruptly flew out from Wang Junze’s brow, its ghostly light dispersing as it fell beside Wang Junze.

At the same time, the terrifying injuries erupted. In an instant, blood oozed simultaneously from Wang Junze’s mouth, eyes, nose, and throat!

Forget broken bones; half of his internal organs were already shattered, and even his Divine Soul was weakened to the point of having just a sliver left. His Essence Blood was mostly depleted, and he seemed to have completely lost all color, truly pale as paper.

Even though Luo Qingxuan was well-prepared mentally, the eruption of Wang Junze’s injuries still startled her.

Fortunately, the Life and Death Contract was powerful enough, as a golden light enveloped Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan in an instant.

Instantly, a substantial amount of vitality, Essence Blood, and even the Power of the Divine Soul surged into Wang Junze’s body.

Thanks to Luo Qingxuan’s greater strength compared to Wang Junze, otherwise such intense consumption could have caused her to faint as well.

Feeling the loss of vitality, a trace of heartache flashed in Luo Qingxuan’s eyes.

What brutal battle must Wang Junze have endured to be driven to this state?

Earlier, Wang Junze merely brushed it off as being injured by the Cyan Robe Demon Venerable, but seeing his actual injuries now, how could Luo Qingxuan not understand that the situation was far more complicated than Wang Junze had said?

However, she had no time to ponder these matters now; she could only focus all her efforts on transforming her internal vitality to aid Wang Junze’s healing.

...

Time slipped away, and a whole night passed.

The spoils from the Netherworld Mansion had long been counted, and the disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect occupied it. Pei Haoran merely left some experts from the Four Seas Commerce Association to assist the Profound Moon Sword Sect in defending before hurriedly leaving the place.

Seizing the Netherworld Mansion was only the beginning. He had numerous things to attend to.

Whether it was distributing rewards, spreading news, calming other Demon Cultivators in the city, or continuing to dispatch people from the Four Seas Commerce Association to the Netherworld City, all needed his oversight.

Though Yang Hong and the Maiden of the Sea seemed stronger, in terms of influence and reputation within the Netherworld City, they paled in comparison to Pei Haoran.

With Wang Junze unable to appear, Pei Haoran was the key to stabilizing the situation.

Of course, this was predicated on not receiving any bad news from the Nether Sea.

Not to mention if the Night Spirit Demon Venerable returned, even if only Qu Lishang fell or fled, it would render all previous efforts and plans futile.

However, these matters were clearly beyond Pei Haoran’s control. All he could do was exhaust every means to create an atmosphere where the Night Spirit Demon Venerable was doomed to fail and constantly persuade other Demon Cultivators to believe in him and Ye Piaoling.
