"The Heavenly Demon Art is worthy of being called a Xiantian power technique. Not only can it swallow other people's cultivation for its own use, it can also continuously strengthen the body, strengthen the meridians, and lay a solid foundation for future advancement!"

Ning Luo was exceptionally excited. He was looking forward to the day when he would trample all over Granny Long, Feng Yunqing, Xuanzi, and Xuanyuan Yu. He would be able to take control of their lives and take revenge for the dozens of innocent deaths in Floating Immortal Alley.

After all, he knew that cultivation was a step at a time, even if he was much faster than others in terms of speed, relying on the inborn power of the Heavenly Demon Art. But after breaking through to the next realm, one's comprehension of Laws and dao was mixed within. This was not something that could be brought about by a formidable cultivation technique.

Even so, Ning Luo was still full of passion and anticipation for the future!

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door, getting closer and closer. Ning Luo knew that Qing'er had returned, so she hurriedly covered up her previous life and pretended to sleep.

Qing'er took a glance inside the house. Seeing that there was nothing unusual with Ning Luo, she snorted at her back before closing the door. She then stood outside to watch.

When she thought about how Bi Xue had died, Qing'er began to cry. Her heart was filled with sorrow. After all, since young, they had been serving Young Hall Master Xuanyuan Yu together, so how could they not have feelings for each other?

"If I knew who killed big sister Bi Xue, I would definitely dismember your body and throw your soul into the Nether Lake, never to reincarnate!" Qing'er said with a sinister look in her eyes.

Ning Luo, who was about to fall asleep, suddenly felt a cold current engulfing her body, causing her to shiver uncontrollably.

"Why is it so cold? That's not right!" Ning Luo dragged her past a lifetime of sleep.

In the dark night, a bright moon hung in the sky. Circles of wavy light surrounded its body, illuminating the entire sky until it was as bright as day.

Beside the moon, two rays of light flashed and disappeared, landing on the roof and flashing by.

Behind them, another even more ghost-like shadow flashed by slowly. However, its movement was even more nimble than the previous two black shadows, and it didn't make the slightest sound. It was as if she was one with the events of the quiet night, a combination of movement and movement.

Two shadows stood in an alley. The alley was abnormally quiet, and only the moonlight illuminated a bit of it. Moreover, this place was remote, so no one passed by. It was the perfect place to kill someone for their goods, or to meet up with a couple.

"Peony, this place is pretty secretive, right? Come, let me kiss you first!"

So the beautiful figure outlined by the moonlight was a peony, so the one speaking must be Di Long. Presumably, the two of them were afraid of arousing suspicion and suspicion, so they hid here to have a reunion.

However, they probably didn't expect that someone else would follow behind them. Since they couldn't find him, his cultivation must be higher than theirs.

Peony had no intention of dodging. He was hugged by Dillon, and his face was covered in his own saliva.

"Can you not be so anxious every time? I am already your person, could it be that you are afraid that I will disappear?" Although Peony's words were full of reproach, her tone was bashful and her actions were charming. Not only did it not calm Di Long, it even aroused his desire from the depths of his primitive heart.

"No, I can't take it anymore. Peony, come on!" Di Long, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, pressed the peony to the ground.

A wave of howling wind and snow passed by, and the ground was a mess. The two of them were like two soft-footed shrimps that were overlapping each other. At the same time, they were both panting and looked as if they were about to run out of energy.

In the end, it was the woman who was more cautious. She was afraid that someone else might pass by, so she propped up her tired body and pushed Di Long away. She wanted to put on her clothes.

"Death, hurry up and put on your clothes. Otherwise, if anyone passes by, you'll cause a lot of trouble!"

"It's fine, it's fine. I've already inquired about it. No one will come here tonight!" Even though he said that, seeing that the peonies were already dressed, he started to clean them up.

It was at this moment that a cold light shot from the top of the pavilion towards Peony. Only when they got closer did they see that within the cold light, there was actually a sharp blade!

There was a tearing sound in the air. The strength and speed of the blade had already reached an extraordinary level.

Peony wanted to dodge, but it seemed that the weak Ning Xuemo could already see the Black and White Impermanence. Facing this all-out attack, coupled with the sharp blade of a sneak attack, she had no way of resisting it!

The only thing left was regret. "Am I, Peony, going to die like this today?"

He silently closed his eyes as two streams of tears flowed down his cheeks.

Right at this time, a dot of golden light shot out from afar and struck the sharp blade. The force of the attack was so strong that it deflected the cold blade.

In the end, the cold blade only cut off a few strands of Peony's hair, before whistling past half a foot from her neck.

In that moment of life and death, Peony felt as if it had made a trip through the underworld. The sweat that had just evaporated flowed down its face.

Di Long had been scared silly just now. Now that he saw his father rush over to save Peony, he was relieved. He said excitedly, "Peony, are you alright? Luckily my father arrived in time!"

Peony came back to her senses, a little annoyed. She looked at Dillon with a look that was not only disdainful, but also loathsome. When he thought about how he was facing death, Di Long was stunned on the side without a sound. He was extremely furious.

However, it was Di Kun who saved him after all. Peony hurriedly bowed to him and said with gratitude, "Thank you for saving my life, Manager Di. I will never forget this!"

Di Kun didn't reply to Peony. Instead, he looked at the pitch-black top of the pavilion. There, a dark figure stood silently, exuding a powerful aura that was not inferior to Di Kun's.

"Who are you? Why did you want to take her life?" Di Kun knew that the other party's strength was not inferior to his. He spoke with a grave expression.

The black shadow in the pavilion was as tranquil as the night wind. Only the sleeves of his robe fluttered before disappearing without a trace.

When Di Kun was standing on top of the loft, the black shadow rose and fell in the distance and disappeared under the moon like a goose.

He mumbled, "Who is this person, taking the life of the peony, could he be from Mei Lian's side?"

Di Kun's guess was right. The black figure that the wind had silently left was precisely the veiled Meryl.

At this moment, Meryl appeared on the roof. The moonlight covered her body, perfectly outlining her graceful figure. A light breeze blew past, and the veil fluttered, revealing her fair and rosy cheeks and vermilion lips. She was dressed in a white dress that fluttered in the wind, looking extremely beautiful.

Although she was over forty years old, she was still like Chang'e, who had just walked out of the moon.

"Di Kun, I didn't expect that you would appear at such a crucial moment. You are really cunning. It seems like you also know that someone will take this opportunity to kill this woman who helped you get the Boundless Universe Crucible!"

"Although she escaped death today, there might not be a next time!"

Meryl's voice rang out in the night. She took mysterious steps and disappeared into the distance in the span of a few breaths.
