The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

Dozens of miles away from the Demon Gate, a figure in black robes appeared.

Kill Heart removed the black robe that concealed his figure, changed into an outfit extremely common in the Demon Realm, put on a face he had made himself, transformed himself, and then turned and flew back towards the Demon Gate.

"That kid actually has the aura of a demonic fruit on him!"

"If I can consume the demonic fruit, I can reactivate the Asura bloodline within me, return to my clan, and bring that damned woman down from power!"

His eyes were filled with rage as he harbored deep hatred for his niece who had usurped his position as the current leader of the Asura clan.

If he had won that battle, why would he need to hide like this now?

"Chu Xiu, is it? How dare you touch the demonic fruit of my Asura clan? Blame yourself for taking what you shouldn't have!"

With a new face, Murderous Intent returned to the gates of the Demonic Netherworld Sect, preparing to step through the teleportation portal into the Heavenly-level Trading City to seize the opportunity to kill Chu Xiu.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to step into the teleportation array, he saw Chu Xiu and a woman dressed as a maid fly out of the teleportation array and head directly towards the outside of the Demon Yama Sect, without stopping in front of the mountain gate.

"Good lad! Saves me the risk of making a move within the Demon King's territory!"

Seeing this, Sha Xin was overjoyed and immediately followed Chu Xiu and his maid a thousand meters away, concealing his aura to the extreme.

But he didn't expect that his whereabouts had already been discovered by Xue Li, who was by Chu Xiu's side.

"Master, that person changed his clothes and returned to the Demon King's territory."

"He's planning to kill me in the Demon King's territory. Ha, I'm not going to wait for him to come to me. Come out with me and lure him out from the shadows!"

As Chu Xiu and Xue Li flew out of the teleportation array, Xue Li quickly sensed the traces of Sha Xin by tracking the flying insects in reverse.

“Master, he is following us about a kilometer behind.”

Chu Xiu smiled coldly: "Very well, Xiang Nan, take him to the coastal border."

"If I am forced into the sea fog later, do not come to rescue me. Engage with him and do not let him escape. I have my own way to kill him in one blow!"

"understand!"

Before setting off, Chu Xiu and Xue Li had already memorized the contents of Ye Wujiang's scroll.

Now, all that's needed is to confront the murderous intent, and the information contained in the scroll can be transformed into experience to counter his assassination techniques.

As planned, the two turned south and flew towards the coast.

Sha Xin had no idea of ​​the two's true purpose for traveling, so he naturally didn't suspect them of changing direction, but he still followed them from a distance, very cautiously.

Upon reaching the seaside, Chu Xiu used his Qi-exploring technique to spread his divine sense, yet he still could not detect any murderous intent within a thousand miles.

He turned to look at Xue Li.

Xue Li closed his eyes. "Due north, 1200 meters away."

Chu Xiu sneered, "Truly worthy of being an assassin, so cautious."

It seems the only way to lure it into making a move is to take the magic fruit out of the storage space.

Chu Xiu found a cliff facing north by the sea, used his fist to carve out a cave, took the demon fruit out of his storage space, and threw it to Xue Li.

"This fruit will devour blood essence. You should use your blood essence to nourish it and spread its aura to lure that person into making a move."

Xue Li accepted the demonic fruit. After sensing the massive amount of blood energy contained within it, a hint of greed flashed in her eyes, but she shook her head the next second, dispelling her greed.

"Understood!" She flew into the cave and channeled her own blood energy into the demon fruit. Soon, the demon fruit's aura rapidly spread to a radius of a thousand meters.

A thousand meters away, Sha Xin suddenly sniffed and exclaimed with delight, "It really is a demonic fruit!"

The traces of the Demon Fruit have been found. Even the murderous heart, faced with such a sacred object that only appears in the legends of the Asura race, was blinded by greed.

At this moment, he could no longer hide his whereabouts. He summoned his flying knife soul weapon and launched a surprise attack on the cave where the demonic fruit's energy was located.

Killing Heart controlled the three flying knives that surrounded him and rushed into the cave. All he could see was the maid next to Chu Xiu and the demon fruit in her hand.

"Woman, hand over the demon fruit! I'll spare your life!"

Faced with the threat of murder, Xue Li merely smiled and then swallowed the demon fruit in one gulp right in front of him.

This left Chu Xiu, who was hiding to the side, stunned.

Killing Heart was also stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned bloodshot, and he roared in fury, "You dare!"

Just as he was about to attack Xue Li, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, his soul trembled, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

Suddenly, a sword light containing powerful magic appeared behind him without warning, piercing towards his back and heart.

In desperation, Sha Xin had no choice but to halt his attack on Xue Li, his figure rapidly rising to barely dodge the sudden sword light.

Even so, his lower back was still injured by the sword light.

With his hand covering his wound, he quickly pressed several acupoints near the wound to stop the bleeding. His eyes darkened as he looked back at the young man who had ambushed him.

At the cave entrance, Chu Xiu stood with his sword in hand, looking at Sha Xin with a cold smile.

Killer's eyes narrowed: "Chu Xiu?"

"You're only at the early stage of the Qiankun Realm, how could you possibly unleash a technique capable of harming me?"

Just as Sha Xin's attention was drawn to Chu Xiu at the cave entrance, Xue Li suddenly appeared behind him, his arms transforming into giant claws of his Blood Demon form, and slashed fiercely at Sha Xin's head.

Killing intent surged from behind again, and Sha Xin was startled. He quickly manipulated his flying knife soul weapon to parry, thus narrowly avoiding Xue Li's sneak attack.

However, Xue Li's attack actually cracked one of his immortal-grade flying knife soul weapons.

"What a terrifying power!"

"Your maid is actually at the late stage of the Qiankun Realm!"

Only then did Sha Xin realize that he had not been following Chu Xiu, but had been lured here by Chu Xiu!

"interesting……"

"This is the first time I've ever been tricked."

Murderous intent swept across Chu Xiu and Xue Li with a vicious gaze.

Chu Xiu, who was at the entrance of the cave, was only at the early stage of the Qiankun Realm.

The maidservant inside the cave, whose hands resembled beast claws, was also at the late stage of the Qiankun Realm, just like him, and in terms of strength alone, she was probably much stronger than him.

The best course of action now is to use Chu Xiu as a breakthrough point to leave this narrow cave that restricts the use of his soul weapon.

With the plan set, a cloud of black mist suddenly burst out from behind Sha Xin, rapidly spreading out and filling the entire cave.

Chu Xiu's eyes sharpened. He knew that this was a secret technique used by Sha Xin to conceal his presence in the open.

His primary target would definitely be himself, the one with the weakest cultivation level present.

After spreading the black mist, Kill Heart immediately drew it in, then flipped his hand and summoned the remaining three flying knife soul weapons. He controlled the six flying knives to transform into thunder birds and attack Chu Xiu's location.

He had one hand behind his back, concealing a short blade of celestial craftsmanship. He followed closely behind the Thunderbird.

Six thunderbirds shot towards him, and Chu Xiu desperately used his left hand to parry with his sword.

In the instant he blocked the six thunderbirds, Chu Xiu used the power of the Heavenly Dao to draw upon imperial energy in his right hand, constructing another invisible sword, which he then swung towards the back of the thunderbirds.

While repelling the murderous intent that attacked with a short blade, he used the power of the Heavenly Dao to forcibly sever the soul connection between the murderous intent and the six Thunderbird Swords.

Instantly, Sha Xin, whose soul connection had been severed, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his aura immediately weakened considerably.

"Chu Xiu!"

"You actually managed to forcibly seize the Soul Weapon!"

Facing the furious roar of the murderous intent that had vanished into the black mist, Chu Xiu smiled and pocketed the six immortal-grade flying knives that were floating in front of him.

"Then thank you very much for the gift, senior!"

"Boy, you are courting death!"

Enraged by murderous intent, he reabsorbed the surrounding black mist into his body, and then his body suddenly burst into flames, like a fire demon, and with lightning speed, he charged towards Chu Xiu with his blade.

Chu Xiu hurriedly summoned the Azure Flame Cone and used his Emperor's Domain to block, but under the violent impact of the killing intent, his body was blown away and shot into the sea fog.

Killing Heart dissipated the flames on his body and disappeared back into the black mist to avoid revealing himself to another late-stage Qiankun Realm cultivator.

"Hahaha, even I dare not touch this mist for more than a few breaths. You shall taste the feeling of your body being melted by the mist!"
