CHAPTER 1318 CRIMSON EMPRESS
"Why aren't my spiritual techniques working on him?! It's as though they're passing right through him!" One of the Exiles cried in frustration.
"Fuck! What is his body made of?! Not even my Divine-grade treasure can pierce his skin!" Another cursed out loud.
"The Asura Clan's Exile must have drowned him in treasures! There's no way a mere Spirit King could fight so many of us at once!"
"Keep attacking him! There must be a limit to his tricks! He will eventually run out of spiritual energy, too!" Yuan's battle with the Exiles was so massive that it caused havoc within the Enchanted Bamboo Forest, alerting nearby experts.
With every release of a potent technique by an Exile, the entire forest quivered.
Furthermore, with so many powerful cultivators gathered in one area, the pressure within the forest was intense and unbearable for the Players there, forcing them to evacuate the Enchanted Bamboo Forest, as they were losing health just by being in the vicinity.
Half an hour into their fight, Yuan slew over 30 Exile, and there were only four Exiles who have yet to join the fight, Xiao Hua being one of them.
Fiery Queen, seeing this, approached her and said, "Are you not going to join the fight? We'll lose more Exiles at this rate. Please, we need your help." Xiao Hua glanced at her with a cold gaze, sending shivers down her back.
'Brother Yuan, what should I do?' she decided to ask him.
Yuan smiled and said, 'Do whatever you want.'
After receiving his response, Xiao Hua looked at the Exile standing not too far away from her— the one who partnered with Dazzling Sword.
Then, without any hesitation, she approached him.
Dazzing Sword suddenly sensed a presence behind him and turned around.
"W-What?!"
To his absolute surprise, Xiao Hua was standing behind his Exile with her arm extended and fingers grasping onto his Exile's neck.
"W-What the fuck do you think you are doing to my Exile?!" Dazzling Sword exclaimed, catching the others' attention.
"T-Tian Hua?! What are you doing?! Your enemy is over there!" Fiery Queen couldn't believe her eyes.
Xiao Hua ignored Fiery Queen and the other Players. Shortly after grasping onto the Exile's neck, she tossed him outside the formation.
"Senior?! What are you doing?!" The Butcherer asked her with a puzzled look on his face.
"I don't like you, and your face is annoying, so I am going to kill you." Xiao Hua said as she retrieved two large swords, wielding one in each hand.
"If you think I am just going to sit back and let you kill me, you're gravely mistaken!" The Butcherer grabbed the two axes strapped to his back and wielded one in each hand like Xiao Hua.
The following moment, Xiao Hua kicked her feet and flew at the Butcherer, who confronted her with sweaty palms. Despite his words just now, he knew that he had no chance of winning against her after learning of her killing intent not long ago. However, he wasn't expecting to fight her by himself either.
Sure enough, the two Exiles who had refrained from engaging Yuan due to their lack of confidence quickly opted to assist the Butcherer upon witnessing Xiao Hua's betrayal. The Butcherer and the other two Exiles surrounded Xiao Hua with a triangular formation. Belonging to .
Xiao Hua was not confident that she could fight three Exiles at once, but when she remembered that Yuan was fighting over 70 of them at once, she gritted her teeth and tossed away all of her useless thoughts.
'If I am going to follow Brother Yuan, I will need to get stronger— much stronger than I am currently!'
A resolute expression appeared on Xiao Hua's face.
"Heavenly Domain— full power!"
A vicious light flickered within Xiao Hua's gaze right before a tyrannical pressure enveloped the three Exiles surrounding her.
"W-What is this?!"
Xiao Hua took advantage of the Exiles' stunned state and swung her large swords at the Exile standing closest to her, executing him in a single strike.
"Heaven Sealing Technique!"
Without any pauses after the kill, she immediately sealed the cultivation of the next closest Exile before swinging her sword at him.
"M-My cultivation is sealed?!" The Exile didn't realize that his cultivation had been sealed until it was too late.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Hua slew two of the three Exiles, leaving the last one, the Butcherer, completely speechless.
Xiong Lu, who couldn't be bothered by the commotion behind him finally decided to take a peek, and his eyes widened when he saw the swords in Xiao Hua's grasp.
"H-Her! That's her! She's Player Yuan's Exile!" Xiong Lu exclaimed in a terrified voice after recognizing her swords.
"What?!" The Players turned to look at Xiao Hua with wide eyes.
Even the Exiles fighting Yuan stopped moving and risked their lives to look.
"You told us she was a little girl! Which part of her is little?!" One of the Exiles suddenly cursed out loud.
"I'm sure it's her! She used the same weapons when she fought my Exile! I cannot explain her change in appearance, but I am certain that it's her who killed Zhaohui!" Xiong Lu said.
"Did she consume an appearance altering pill to fool us?" One of the Exiles deducted correctly.
"Appearance altering pill? T-Then…" Fiery Queen turned to look at Yuan with a horrified look on her face.
Yuan smiled and said out loud, "I guess there's no point in hiding now, Xiao Hua."
He removed his mask, revealing his appearance as Xiao Yang.
"X-Xiao Yang! You bastard! How dare you trick us?!" Fiery Queen's face flushed with redness after realizing that they had been completely played by Yuan.
Xiao Hua also removed her mask, revealing her sister's beautiful appearance.
When the Exiles saw Xiao Hua's face, their faces immediately paled.
"C-Crimson Empress?!" Not one Exile there did not recognize Xiao Hua's sister's face.
After realizing the identity of their target, the Exiles suddenly lost all motivation to continue with some even dropping their weapons in despair.
