She swayed precariously in the void, her face pale as she gazed into the emptiness.
The ominous atmosphere around her was thick, and with every breath, she felt the weight of despair.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in the distance, cloaked in a dark aura that seemed to ripple through the space.
As the figure drew closer, Shangguan Xue recognized the presence of a familiar enemy, her heart pounding in her chest.
With great effort, she steadied herself, her mind racing as she contemplated her next move.
The last battle had left her severely weakened, and she knew she had little time to escape.
"Is this how it ends?" she whispered to herself, frustration and dread washing over her.
Yet, deep within her, a flicker of determination ignited.
She had faced countless challenges before, and she refused to let despair claim her now.
Gathering her remaining strength, she began to channel her energy, preparing for whatever would come next.
The figure loomed ever closer, and with it, the threat of annihilation.
Shangguan Xue would fight until her last breath, even if it meant confronting the darkness alone.
Upon hearing this, Shen Subing replied indifferently, "How will you serve?"
"I..." Shangguan Xue bit her silver teeth, "I am willing to offer my body to be a slave and maid for the supreme lord."
Suddenly, Shen Subing laughed, "You have the qualifications to serve my husband? How ridiculous!"
"Die!"
Shen Subing, wielding her Flying Sword, executed the time-space phantom steps and slashed towards Shangguan Xue's neck!
As Shangguan Xue leaned back, bending her back like a bow to dodge the lethal strike, Shen Subing flipped her left hand and struck Shangguan Xue's chest with a sudden blow!
"Pu, pu, pu!"
Shangguan Xue's chest caved in as she spat out three mouthfuls of blood, feeling dizzy as she began to fall downward!
"Pu Chi!"
Shen Subing dove down and pierced Shangguan Xue's brow with her sword!
After killing Shangguan Xue, Shen Subing released her immortal sense, covering a radius of thirty million miles in the void.
She discovered that Zhen Ji had put Li Ting, at the twelfth level of the great emperor realm, in a desperate situation.
Meanwhile, Ouyang Duantian and Xiahou Shu were evenly matched.
As for Zhuang Lingyun, a powerful figure at the twelfth level of the great emperor realm, he was obviously no match for Tuoba Yingying.
Shen Subing sent a voice transmission to Ouyang Duantian: "Do you need my help?"
"Thank you, supreme lady, but I do not require your assistance." At that moment, Ouyang Duantian's respectful voice echoed in Shen Subing's mind.
"Then be careful. I am going to pursue the enemy," Shen Subing transmitted again. She then used her immortal sense to find that at the four entrances—east, south, west, and north—over a million City Lords had gathered, with the east gate being the most populated.
She also noticed that Tan Yun was chasing the soul-snatching divine hound towards the east gate.
Thus, Shen Subing executed the time-space phantom steps and shot towards the east gate at high speed...
...
At this moment, under the starry sky, Zhuang Lingyun pretended to be at a disadvantage. Suddenly, he surged forward with his sword and appeared on Tuoba Yingying's left side, grinning wickedly, "Little brat, did you really think this City Lord is not your match?"
"Hahahaha, you've been fooled! This City Lord will cripple you and then capture you; you will become my bargaining chip for survival!"
"Pu Chi!"
As Zhuang Lingyun laughed with excitement, he cut off Tuoba Yingying's left arm with his sword!
Immediately after, Zhuang Lingyun swung his sword and severed Tuoba Yingying's right arm!
"Whoosh!"
Zhuang Lingyun, sword in his right hand, suddenly lunged at Tuoba Yingying's throat with his left hand, attempting to capture her alive!
However, the next scene sent a deep fear from the depths of Zhuang Lingyun's soul: "Ah! How could this happen!"
Tuoba Yingying's severed arms quickly returned to her shoulders, healing the wounds!
"I will let you taste the feeling of losing your arms." Tuoba Yingying's expression was cold as she slashed upwards with her sword, sending a spray of blood as a sword aura carved an arc through the air, severing Zhuang Lingyun's arm!
