Xianling Nan struck out with a palm, and a white beam of light, like a sharp claw, shot toward Hunu Asi.
Seeing this, Hunu Asi likewise unleashed her power and smashed a fist into the beam.
At that moment, their energy—their Qi—began to collide wildly.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Xianling Nan's body spun, slipping past the colliding energy and appearing directly in front of Hunu Asi.
Her fist, shimmering with white light, slammed hard into the side of Hunu Asi's face.
Boom!
Hunu Asi was sent flying backward. The moment she landed, she saw a white sword blade forming above her head and dropping swiftly.
Panicking, she rolled on the ground to dodge the attack.
Before she could even get up, Xianling Nan was already in front of her again, launching a barrage of lethal strikes aimed at her head.
Xu Mu stood still where he was. He had expected Hunu Asi to last a few more exchanges against Xianling Nan, but he hadn’t thought the outcome would come this quickly.
He had to admit, the ten-tier destiny female lead was indeed formidable.
In the original storyline, Xu Ningbing, as the primary female lead, was second only to Ye Chen in the later stages.
The Xianling Nan before him—also a primary female lead in her own story—was destined to become a match for Wutian in the future.
Humm!
Xu Mu activated his shifting technique, swapping places with the battered Hunu Asi.
Facing the incoming attack, he grabbed Xianling Nan by the wrist, raised his knee, and slammed it into her chest.
Boom!
A dull thud echoed through the air as Xianling Nan was sent flying backward.
She righted herself midair and landed steadily on the ground without falling.
But the piercing pain in her chest left her gasping for air.
[Affection -5]
"Xu Mu! You bastard! I won't let you get away with this!"
Xianling Nan hissed like an angry cat puffing up its fur.
After cursing, she didn’t go after Xu Mu but continued her assault on Hunu Asi instead.
Xu Mu raised his hand, and a dozen dark red longswords blocked Xianling Nan’s path.
He shouted urgently to Hunu Asi, "What are you standing there for? Take them and go!"
[Affection +20]
"Benefactor! Words cannot express my gratitude!"
Hunu Asi immediately led her companions and fled into the distance.
Trapped by the swords, Xianling Nan strained to unleash her power and finally shook them off.
She glanced at the retreating Hunu Asi, then at the others fighting in the distance, and finally fixed her gaze on Xu Mu.
"Xu Mu! Hunu Asi will die for sure! I’ll deliver her head to you!"
She clenched her fists and growled.
"Have you ever considered that before you kill her, I might kill you first?"
Xu Mu spread his hands with a smile.
"Then come and kill me, you despicable Yanhuang man! Even as a ghost, I won't forgive you!"
The moment Xianling Nan finished speaking, a figure shot past her like a cannonball.
Crash!
That figure smashed into a distant boulder, shattering it completely.
Xianling Nan spun around and saw it was Pang Xun.
His face was covered in blood, and he pointed ahead with terror in his eyes. "Ghost! A ghost!"
Following Pang Xun's finger, Xianling Nan was stunned. She knew him—as a commander, he wouldn’t show such fear even in death.
When she saw the figure descending from above, she too froze in shock. "C… Chieftain!"
Earlier, during the clash between Xianling Cui and Pang Xun’s power, the hood of the robe had been blown off, revealing his face.
That thick beard and long black hair made him look like a lion.
Every Baishi Clan member present recognized this man.
He was their former chieftain!
Pang Xun dared not fight this former tyrant. He turned and fled, vanishing into the sky in an instant.
Seeing their commander run, the rest of the Pang clan also scattered in panic.
Meanwhile, Xianling Qi, still fighting in the sky, noticed the former chieftain as well.
He swooped down from above. "Chieftain! You’re alive?"
Swish!
Xianling Cui showed no emotion. He unleashed his power again.
Whoosh!
Xianling Bu also flashed behind Xianling Qi, his fingers as sharp as blades, stabbing into Xianling Qi’s back.
Xianling Qi countered by blasting out his energy, barely escaping.
The storm of force shattered Xianling Bu’s hood, and when Xianling Qi saw the man's face, he was utterly stunned.
"Father!"
Xianling Qi’s eyes widened in disbelief. This man was the former elder and his own father.
He couldn’t understand why his father would attack him.
"Xu Mu! What’s going on? Tell me!"
Pale as a sheet, Xianling Nan turned and shouted at Xu Mu.
Swish! Swish!
Without Xu Mu’s command, Xianling Cui and Xianling Bu wouldn’t stop their assault.
Now that Pang Xun had fled, the two turned their full force on Xianling Qi.
Alone, Xianling Qi couldn’t handle even one of them. With the stronger Xianling Cui joining, he was completely outmatched.
But Xianling Qi didn’t flee—after all, his own father was standing there.
He kept calling out, but what greeted him was his father’s iron fist.
Seeing Xianling Nan badly injured, her eyes also began to redden.
"Xu Mu!"
Xianling Nan quickly approached Xu Mu, reaching out to grab his collar. "Stop! Tell them to stop!"
"Is this the attitude you use when begging me?"
Xu Mu looked calmly at Xianling Nan.
"I'm begging you! Tell them to stop!"
Without a moment's hesitation, Xianling Nan knelt before Xu Mu.
In the eyes of others, Xianling Cui was a tyrant, but to Xianling Nan, he had treated her like his own child.
She did not want to see her own people killing each other.
"Stop!"
Xu Mu shouted toward the distance.
At Xu Mu's words, the two figures over there immediately halted.
Xianling Qi also dragged his severely injured body, struggling to stand up from the ground.
"Xu Mu, what the hell is going on? I saw with my own eyes the clan leader's head chopped off—why is he still alive?"
Xianling Nan looked up and asked.
"They really did die, but now they are being controlled by the Corpse Worm of the Jiuli tribe,"
Xu Mu said calmly. "If I'm not mistaken, it's Chi Ting of the Jiuli tribe."
"Then why can you control them?"
Xianling Qi asked from a distance.
"I have a mental cultivation technique that lets me control these parasitic worms."
After speaking, Xu Mu looked down at Xianling Nan, still kneeling before him. "Where were their bodies originally?"
"In the hands of the Laojie clan, but after that, I don't know where they ended up."
Xianling Nan explained.
Xu Mu narrowed his eyes. The bodies were kept in such perfect condition—it was highly likely that the Laojie clan had given them to Chi Ting.
It seemed the Laojie clan was also an enemy of Yan and Huang.
On second thought, it made sense. They dared to use those rebels and prisoners to cause trouble in the outside world—they definitely weren't to be underestimated.
This Baishi clan, no matter who became their leader, would end up as enemies of Yan and Huang in the future.
Xu Mu was considering whether to just wipe them out.
Just then, the two standing corpses in the distance suddenly collapsed.
Xu Mu immediately checked with his senses—the parasitic worms on their bodies had burrowed into the ground, detaching from the corpses.
"Well, damn! What a surprise! Chi Ting seems to have recalled the worms. With no strong helpers left now, what do you plan to do to me?"
Xu Mu said with a smile, looking at Xianling Nan.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
