Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 784 The Deadly Black Rose

The extremely arrogant Demon expert laughed loudly, displaying his strength without hiding anything. He looked vicious.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Demon authorities did not allow them to slaughter Humans on a large scale, for the time being, they would have already crushed the hundreds of Human Clan warriors in front of them.

Of course, since these pitiful vermin didn’t know what was good for them, it would not be a big deal to kill them all.

The Demon authorities only disallowed large-scale slaughter.

But killing more than a hundred Humans was not considered a large-scale slaughter!

The situation was extremely unfavorable to the Human martial artists.

More than a hundred people were surrounded at the entrance of the House of Wine, like a small sampan in the raging waves, ready to be ravaged by the turbulent waves anytime.

Dao Qingcheng halted and slowly glanced at the Demon experts who had gathered around him.

He looked calm and determined, not showing any fear.

“Since ancient times, old laws have to make way for new ones. The Human Clan has never been afraid of death. If the Demon Clan wants a war, we shall give them one. Death is just the beginning, not the end!”

His sonorous words struck the hearts of every Human martial artist.

Some Human Clan warriors, who had been cowering a little, also gnashed their teeth.

A scene with the Human Clan trembling with fear as expected by the Demon Clan experts, did not materialize.

“In that case, kill them all!”

The Black Hyena Demon King, who had been threatening him at the start, bellowed angrily, turning into a black stream of light. He was the first to attack Dao Qingcheng. He could see that the Human Clan would not have acted so toughly had this swordsman from the Chopping Sun City not talked them into it.

At the same moment—

Swoosh!

A white stream of light suddenly shot out of the House of Wine, piercing through the body of the Hyena Demon King, who was soaring into the air. The huge inertia threw him backward, knocking down many Demon experts in his path.

The entire place became quiet in an instant.

Only then did everyone realize that the battle in the House of Wine had somehow ended. The loud energy clashes and all sorts of howls and screams had long died away.

“Pit-a-pat!”

They heard light footsteps approaching.

A beautiful figure in a black, tight, and sexy armor slowly walked out of the House of Wine.

She was covered in blood, her wheat-colored skin caked with mottled bloodstains like dazzling red petals blooming. She exuded a fatal charm and an alluring danger. Under the distant golden sun, this beautiful woman seemed like a war goddess who had come out of the Asura Battlefield.

For a moment, everyone became a little quiet.

Her keen eyes swept the surroundings. She gently raised her hand. The distant white bone spear piercing through the Hyena Demon King streaked back into her slender hand like a bolt of white lightning.

“How dare this Demon mob to discuss the fate of our Human Clan!”

The girl stood on the steps and looked down, her body swirling with a faint murderous blood aura. A tangible murderous aura seemed to be emanating from her perfect body, like steel needles pricking into the skin of the nearby Demon experts.

“How dare you…” A Demon King glanced at the silent House of Wine and asked with a shocked expression, “Where are the experts of the Blood-sampling Peak?”

“A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye. Since you’ve provoked us Humans, you should be prepared to be wiped out,” the beautiful girl said nonchalantly, with a matter-of-fact expression.

“You… wiped out the entire Blood-sampling Peak?” An expert from the Demon Clan exclaimed.

“You can’t accept this?” The beautiful girl clad in black armor raised her head, staring.

The Demon Clan expert immediately retracted his aura and took a step back instinctively. Although the Blood-sampling Peak was not a super force, it was still a well-known Demon faction of the surrounding provinces. Its leader was a middle-level Demon Royal expert. Yet within so short a period of time, this young and beautiful warrior of the Human Clan had wiped out the entire sect?

“Who… who the hell are you? If you have the guts to kill a Demon expert, leave us your name.” Someone from the Demon Clan demanded loudly and furiously.

“Gu Xing’er.” The beautiful girl in black armor did not hide anything.

There were shocked gasps everywhere.

“Gu Xing’er?”

“The Deadly Black Rose?”

Amidst their shocked gasps, the complexions of all the Demon Clan experts immediately changed. They instinctively retreated, like they had seen some horrific presence. On the other hand, joy could be seen on the faces of many Human Clan warriors.

A momentary shocked and dazed expression flashed across Dao Qingcheng’s face.

Gu Xing’er!

This name was so celebrated in the past year!

A year ago, no one had heard of this name, nor did anyone know of the origin of this woman. Among the more dazzling younger Human masters of the Northern Region, no one had ever heard of a female warrior named Gu Xing’er.

But she had suddenly risen in the Northern Region like a comet.

She was from a famous sect. As the personal disciple of Bai Quanshui, the Leader of the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect, she had killed tens of thousands of Demons overnight and rescued “Sky Light City,” a human settlement in Earth Province under siege by dozens of Demon sects. She even singlehandedly hunted down the Demons for thousands of miles and eliminated all the Demon forces that participated in the siege, shocking the surrounding 10 provinces.

Gu Xing’er became famous due to this battle.

Several major battles followed. Gu Xing’er killed many famous masters of the Demon Clan, with every battle she fought marking a sensation. If her earlier strength could only be regarded as second or third-rate among the younger Human Clan warriors, with every battle she fought, there was an incremental leap in her strength.

In a year, the name Gu Xing’er had spread far and wide.

Different from the other masters of the Human Clan, Gu Xing’er had fought a few hundred battles in a single year against the Demon Clan. No one had heard her fighting the experts of the Human Clan. She even turned down the challenges of many young Human experts, who had tried to defeat her and achieve fame.

For many Demon forces, the name Gu Xing’er was like an invitation card from Death itself.

Almost all the Demon forces targeted by this woman were eventually uprooted and completely wiped out.

Gu Xing’er’s massacre of the Demon Clan also aroused the wrath of certain super forces. There were also true Demon experts going after her, intending to kill. She was seriously injured a few times and had almost died, yet in the end, she still managed to escape alive.

After that, her fame grew even more.

With her stunning beauty, her swift and aggressive style, her ruthless technique, her elusiveness, and her background as a disciple of a Human Clan super force—the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect—her name began to spread to many provinces in the Northern Region. Gu Xing’er ended up with a strange nickname, the Deadly Black Rose.

No one expected this legendary female expert from the Human Clan to appear here today.

“Humph, she is from the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect, so what? We can’t let things rest today after she slaughtered so many of the Demon Clan!”

Someone snorted in the Demon Clan crowd.

“The Mirror Lake’s Alliance Conference is very important. Gu Xing’er, you have massacred so many Demons. No one can save you.” A Demon expert started to act tough.

Although Gu Xing’er was powerful, Mirror Lake and its environs were now controlled by the Demon Clan. All their super forces had gathered here. Even older Human Sages had to deal with the precarious situation prudently, let alone a rising star like Gu Xing’er.

After a brief moment of panic, the Demon experts gradually recovered.

“Hehe, you’re courting death. The Deadly Black Rose will have to wither today.”

“It’s time to teach these foolish Humans a lesson. Otherwise, this girl will really think she can defy the Heavens.”

“Go and get the experts of the Demon God Palace here. We should never allow mere vermin to challenge our Clan’s dignity and walk away alive.”

The experts of the Demon Clan began to clamor.

Gu Xing’er stood quietly on the top of the stairs, a cold smile on her face. She seemed to be waiting for more experts of the Demon Clan to gather.

Dao Qingcheng wanted to say something, but in the end, still kept quiet.

The other hundreds of warriors of the Human Clan also came to the foot of the terrace and surrounded Gu Xing’er. Many were looking ghastly and hideous because of their nervousness, but they did not retreat, despite them knowing that the terrible masters of the Demon Clan—at the Demon Royal, Demon Emperor, or Demon Saint Realm—would soon be here.

Sure enough, in the next moment, there were billowing demonic clouds in the sky.

The strange black demonic clouds erupted above the distant manor that had belonged to Tranquility Academy, spreading wildly. In the blink of an eye, they had enveloped the sky and the sun, looming for dozens of miles over the whole Mirror Lake. The sky suddenly darkened and the sun became hidden. It was as if dark night had descended in an instant.

A terrifying Demonic Aura started to enshroud that space.

“Who dares to make trouble in Demon Clan territory?” A majestic voice reverberated from the black clouds above.

A faint colossal body, like that of a Devil, loomed in the Demonic Aura clouds.

It was a real Demon expert.

He was definitely a presence at the advanced Demon Royal Realm.

However, the released aura had already turned the surrounding dozens of miles into a scene from doomsday. Many Human Clan warriors felt like a massive boulder was weighing on their chests. They could hardly breathe and their faces turned pale. The Qi in their bodies seemed stagnated and could not run at all.

“Demon Clan territory? Mirror Lake in Snow Province is our Human Clan’s sacred martial arts ground.” Gu Xing’er looked up, her long black hair streaming in the demon wind, gleaming like a cascading waterfall.

“That was in the past.” The Devil-like figure retorted coldly.

“It still is.” Gu Xing’er would not give in.

Several Demon King experts flew into the air and came to the side of the Devil-like figure. They reported to him what happened in detail.

“The Blood-sampling Peak is under the protection of our Demon God Palace. Killing the Demons from the Bloody-sampling Peak is tantamount to challenging our palace. Gu Xing’er, I won’t kill you all. If you kill yourself, I will spare the rest of the pathetic vermin with you.”

The tall figure in the demonic clouds, like a judge ruling the heavens and the earth, made the final pronouncement.
