Travel through the heavens

Chapter 299 Thunder Dispels Evil, Sword Qi Slays Demons

In the world of "The Legend of the Young Swordsman", the Lei Clan has three great skills: "Wu Fang Fist", "Jing Lei Finger", and "Wu Lei Tian Gang Fist".

Among them, "Thunder Finger" was combined by Lei Yunhe with Huanglong Mountain's "Nine Heavens Thunder-Drawing Technique", which can control the thunder of the nine heavens.

Fang Muye happened to have learned this finger technique.

Thunder is the embodiment of the righteous energy of heaven and earth, extremely strong and yang, extremely fierce and intense, and is the nemesis of all evil spirits and ghosts in the world.

When the thunderbolt from the heavens struck Fang Muye's hand, a destructive aura, as awe-inspiring as the might of heaven, also emanated from his hand.

The hundreds of demons rushing towards Fang Muye immediately stopped, an instinctive tremor rising from the depths of their souls. The resentment in their eyes was replaced by fear, and no matter how Yin Lie urged them, not one of them dared to step forward again.

The mighty Thunder Pool, none dared to cross it.

Fang Muye's lips curled up, and with a clench of his right hand, lightning exploded from his hand, transforming into countless thunder dragons that charged towards the army of changui.

Where the lightning passed, the surging, pitch-black ghostly mist melted away as quickly as boiling water poured on snow.

The hundreds of ferocious and roaring demons, after being struck by the thunder dragon, let out even more mournful and desperate howls, and in the blink of an eye, they turned to ashes and completely disappeared into the world.

In the blink of an eye, the monstrous night procession of ghosts that blotted out the sky and the suffocating, eerie ghost realm were completely swept away by the thunderous lightning.

The courtyard was clear again, with only a faint smell of burning in the air and the still flickering arcs of electricity bearing witness to the earth-shattering blow that had just occurred.

Yin Lie watched helplessly as his army of cougars, which he had accumulated over hundreds of years, vanished in an instant. His eyes widened in horror, and his heart trembled.

Who exactly is this person? Not only is his physical body stronger than his, but his lightning magic is also more advanced than that of the Taoist priests he had encountered before.

When did such a terrifying figure emerge in Anping Prefecture?!

Yin Lie finally understood that the strength of the man in the blue robe before him far exceeded his imagination and was far beyond his ability to defeat.

Escape! We must escape immediately!

As long as the green hills remain, you won’t have to worry about running out of firewood!

The instinct for survival overwhelmed all hatred and pride. Yin Lie had no desire for revenge left, only the thought of "escaping for his life"!

He stomped his foot, shattering the bricks and stones on the ground, and his figure shot into the sky like a blood-red arrow.

Yin Lie's demonic aura surged, pushing his speed to the limit, hoping only to escape alive.

"Isn't it too late to leave now?"

Fang Muye's voice wasn't loud, but it reached Yin Lie's ears clearly, as if it were right next to him.

Yin Lie turned around in shock and saw that the figure in green robes had not chased after him, but was standing in place, pointing his sword finger at him from afar, and a sword aura suddenly shot out.

This sword energy exuded an indescribable aura, feeling majestic and imposing, as if it could split the heavens. Its speed was as fast as lightning, arriving before Yin Lie in an instant.

Yin Lie was filled with a sense of impending doom, feeling an unprecedented crisis of death.

His momentum did not diminish. With a roar, he opened his mouth and spat out a dark red demon core the size of a chicken egg.

This is Yin Lie's natal demon core, the essence of his cultivation, and an extremely powerful magic weapon. However, it cannot be used against enemies except in life-or-death situations.

The demon core spun rapidly, transforming into a striped tiger that slammed into the incoming sword energy.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain.

The sword energy flashed like lightning, instantly piercing through the demon core's true spirit and striking Yin Lie's vital heart with unparalleled precision. It then unleashed a fierce sword intent, completely annihilating all of Yin Lie's life force.

Yin Lie's charging figure suddenly froze in mid-air. His tiger-like eyes, as big as copper bells, widened, filled with disbelief, fear, resentment, and despair. He looked down at the spot on his chest, even though there was no wound there.

He opened his mouth as if to say something, but could only utter meaningless hoarse sounds.

Behind him, the true spirit of the demon core had vanished, leaving only a demon core suspended in the air.

"Crack!"

A slight cracking sound suddenly rang out, and Yin Lie's burly body and the demon core began to crack inch by inch, before exploding into dust and dissipating into the air.

The Black Wind Mountain Lord, Yin Lie, a great demon who had cultivated for over five hundred years, was annihilated, both in body and soul!

Fang Muye calmly withdrew his gaze.

One sword opens the gate of heaven!

If one can open the Heavenly Gate and kill immortals, then one is certainly capable of annihilating a tiger demon in the mortal world.

However, the courtyard of the general's mansion was completely silent at this moment.

Only the night wind carried a hint of anxiety and the stench of blood.

All the guards of the General's Mansion and the captains of the Garrison Command stood frozen in place, like clay sculptures or wooden statues, watching the figure slowly retract his sword finger, his green robe fluttering slightly in the night wind.

The invincible and arrogant Black Wind Mountain Lord was so easily killed by the son-in-law.

Gu Yueqing stared blankly at Fang Muye's retreating figure, her mind filled with a myriad of emotions that she could not contain herself.

Her new husband, whom she had initially thought was just a weak scholar, unexpectedly possessed such extraordinary abilities. His effortless slaying of a great demon had left a deep impression on her heart.

The silence lasted only a few breaths before being shattered by thunderous cheers.

"My lord is truly awe-inspiring!" Chen Song, who had seen Fang Muye during the day, was the first to react. He was so excited that his face turned bright red, and he clasped his hands in a fist and bowed deeply, his voice booming like a bell.

"My son-in-law is incredibly powerful!"

"My son-in-law is incredibly powerful!"

……

Cheers erupted one after another, and the gazes of the crowd toward Fang Muye were filled with fervent admiration and gratitude. If it weren't for the son-in-law, the General's Mansion would have been in grave danger, and they themselves would likely not have been able to save their lives.

Fang Muye smiled and nodded slightly to everyone, then turned around and looked at Gu Yueqing.

Seeing her leaning on the ground with her gun, her face pale and the blood still wet at the corner of her mouth, he frowned slightly, a hint of heartache flashing in his eyes, and said softly, "Don't force yourself to keep going."

After saying that, Fang Muye stepped forward, and without giving her a chance to explain, took the spear from her hand and lifted her up in his arms.

Caught off guard, Gu Yueqing let out a soft gasp, her pale cheeks instantly flushing red.

As a garrison general in charge of an entire prefecture, she had never been so close to anyone before, let alone in front of her subordinates.

Gu Yueqing instinctively tried to struggle, but Fang Muye's arms were steady and his breath was gentle. In addition, her internal injuries flared up, leaving her weak and powerless. In the end, she gently buried her burning cheeks in his shoulder and closed her eyes without saying a word.

The subordinates were all shrewd and intelligent. Seeing this, they all lowered their heads and looked down, not daring to look any longer, but they couldn't help but smile.

Who would have thought that the usually heroic general would have such a girlish demeanor?

"Brothers, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll take Yueqing back to heal her wounds first," Fang Muye said gently, holding the beauty in his arms and looking around.

"Okay, son-in-law, leave the rest to us, don't worry."

"The general's injuries are serious. We will handle things here; you need not worry, son-in-law."

……

The captains and guards responded in unison.

Fang Muye nodded, and with a swift movement, he passed through the corridor and entered the backyard room.
