Chapter 1157: Who is Slaughtering the Path? 🔪

Published: March 8, 2025

The eight people across from Zixie Qing looked at her as if they had seen a ghost! The inexplicable horror, the extreme shock, rendered them speechless!

With the strength of one person, she had countered hundreds of eighth grade supremes, amplified many times by the great formation, and had crushed them all in one fell swoop!

Kill!

Such a reality made everyone feel like they were dreaming!

A nightmare!

Even the Law Sovereign and Wuzhuo City trembled as they looked at Zixie Qing, the astonishment in their eyes hard to hide.

Although Zixie Qing's complexion was pale, her gaze was sharp as she looked at the crowd opposite her. She gently extended her hand to wipe away the blood at the corner of her mouth and smiled faintly: “Is this your battle of the slaughter path? Truly powerful!”

This wasn’t a question, and she knew no one would answer; she just kept speaking to herself.

“You all discussed the slaughter path in the secret chamber of the Zhuge family twenty days ago, after that auction! I thought it was some earth-shattering plan, but it turned out to be like this.”

Zixie Qing said lightly.

The Night Emperor suddenly looked up: “You... knew it all along?”

Zixie Qing nodded lightly: “Since that day, I have been looking forward to this battle arriving as soon as possible! Killing one by one doesn’t compare to a collective annihilation that is more satisfying!”

She let out a cold sneer: “Moreover, you willingly gathered the clan’s experts to come and die; I am more than happy to fulfill your wishes. You want to slaughter, how do you know that I also want to slaughter? To carve out a great path!”

The crowd turned pale!

Their seemingly foolproof plan was completely grasped by the other party?

Bu Liqing suddenly realized; no wonder Zixie Qing had always been so calm and unconcerned about this matter, it turned out she had long been planning and had been waiting for their trap…

“This battle today has finally come as scheduled!” Zixie Qing said coldly: “Do you have anything to say?”

The crowd looked like ashes.

Of the seven hundred seventy-one supremes, only eight remained! What else could they say?

Zixie Qing turned to face Wuzhuo City and said somewhat regretfully: “Your ancestors and I had dealings, and I didn’t intend to kill you today! But you, while presiding over the formation, dared to use your own vital energy to guide the star lightning to kill me... This time, I cannot spare you!”

Wuzhuo City suddenly raised his head, disbelief shining in his eyes: “What? Vital energy? What vital energy?!”

“You don't know?” Zixie Qing was somewhat surprised: “You are so enthusiastic about this matter, even risking your life to block the formation, expending your yuan soul, drawing heavenly power, causing the stars to transform into lightning to come and kill me... and you don’t even realize it?”

Wuzhuo City's face darkened, and he lowered his head deeply. Not knowing what to think, he then slowly raised it, fixing his gaze on the Law Sovereign's face, before shifting to Zhuge Confused's face. His voice was eerily calm as he said: “What... is this vital energy all about?”

The Law Sovereign's expression was grave as he turned to Zhuge Confused: “Zhuge, what’s going on? How does it involve vital energy? What trick are you playing?”

Zhuge Confused slumped on the ground, looking at the Law Sovereign in confusion, unable to speak for a moment.

A long while later, a glimmer of understanding suddenly flickered in his eyes as he pointed and said: “You...”

The Law Sovereign leaped forward and swiftly appeared in front of Zhuge Confused, raising his hand to slap him on the face: “Speak! What’s going on?”

Zhuge Confused's throat made a choking sound, but he couldn’t utter a single word.

The Law Sovereign sighed deeply in despair: “Brother Wu, I have wronged you. This person, you can interrogate him...” He said, stepping back three paces, exposing Zhuge Confused to Wuzhuo City’s eyes.

Wuzhuo City approached with killing intent, striding forward: “Zhuge Confused, how dare you scheme against me, even involving my vital energy…”
