随后银光一闪，那残破的尸体无风自燃，顷刻间化为了灰烟。一片吸气的声音，所有人皆被镇住，九天玄尊可是离合期修仙者，居然毫无还手之力的被屠戳，难道眼前的女子，真是阿修罗王么？可为何神识扫过，她的修为仅仅是凝丹期，这未免太不可思议！
Following this, a silver light flashed. The broken corpse ignited on its own and turned to ashes in an instant. A collective intake of breath echoed as everyone was stunned. The Nine Heavens Xuan Zun was indeed a Separation Period cultivator, yet he had been utterly defeated without any resistance. Could the woman before them truly be the Arhats' Queen? However, upon scanning her with his divine sense, her cultivation level was only at Core Formation Stage—this was too unbelievable!
liǎng míng lǎo guài wù duì shì yī yǎn ， liǎn shàng mǎn shì jīng jù zhī sè ， qí yú de yuán yīng xiū shì jiù gèng bú yòng shuō ， zhè yàng de jié guǒ ， shì tā men zuò mèng yě bù céng liào xiǎng dào de 。 lì jīng qiān xīn wàn kǔ ， méi xiǎng dào zuì hòu děng lái de què shì wàn jié bù fù ！“ a ！”
两名老怪物对视一眼，脸上满是惊惧之色，其余的元婴修士就更不用说，这样的结果，是他们做梦也不曾料想到的。历经千辛万苦，没想到最后等来的却是万劫不复！“啊！”
The two ancient elders exchanged glances, their faces filled with fear. The other Spirit婴 cultivators were even more speechless; such a result was beyond their wildest dreams. After enduring countless hardships, they had expected the ultimate disaster instead.
yī shēng jīng hū chuán rù ěr duǒ ， què shì yī míng luó jiā zhǎng lǎo xīn lǐ chéng shòu bú zhù ， shēn xíng zhuǎn dòng ， huà wèi yī lǚ jīng hóng ， bù gù yī qiè de xiàng shān xià táo zǒu 。 rán ér cǐ shí cǐ kè ， zhè yàng de xíng wéi wú yí - shì fēi cháng yú chǔn de 。
一声惊呼传入耳朵，却是一名罗家长老心理承受不住，身形转动，化为一缕惊虹，不顾一切的像山下逃走。然而此时此刻，这样的行为无疑-是非常愚蠢的。
"Ahh!"
yuè ér zài lín xuān miàn qián shì wēn róu tīng huà de xiǎo yā tou ， bù guò duì qí tā rén què yòu bù yí yàng le ， yù shǒu tái qǐ ， huǎn huǎn xiàng qián diǎn qù 。 nà dùn guāng gā rán ér zhǐ ， táo zǒu de xiū shì jīng yà de xiàn tǐ nèi luò líng lì jū rán bù shòu zì jǐ kòng zhì ， rán ér zhè hái bú shì zuì kě pà de shì 。
月儿在林轩面前是温柔听话的小丫头，不过对其他人却又不一样了，玉手抬起，缓缓向前点去。那遁光嘎然而止，逃走的修士惊讶的现体内络灵力居然不受自己控制，然而这还不是最可怕的事。
A cry of shock entered Lin Xuan's ears as one of the Luo Family elders could no longer bear it and turned into a streak of light, fleeing down the mountain with all his might. However, such an action was incredibly foolish at this moment.
tā de shēn tǐ ， yǒu rú bèi chuī zhàng qì de pí qiú yì bān ， háo wú zhēng zhào de zì jǐ gǔ zhàng qǐ lái ， yuè lái yuè dà ， yuè lái yuè yuán ， yī fú jiē bèi chēng pò ， suí hòu pēng de yī shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， màn tiān xuè wù ， zhè míng táo zǒu de xiū shì jū rán zì bào le 。 dāng rán ， míng yǎn rén dōu kàn chū tā bú shì zì yuàn de 。
他的身体，有如被吹胀气的皮球一般，毫无征兆的自己鼓胀起来，越来越大，越来越圆，衣服皆被撑破，随后嘭的一声传入耳朵，漫天血雾，这名逃走的修士居然自爆了。当然，明眼人都看出他不是自愿的。
Moonlight was gentle and obedient before Lin Xuan, but to others, she was anything but. Her jade hand rose slowly toward them. The escaping cultivator's flight abruptly halted as he realized that the spiritual energy within him no longer obeyed his will. This wasn't the worst part.
yī shí jiān ， wàn lài jù jì ， biàn shì luó jiā lǎo zǔ ， liǎn shàng yě cǎn wú rén sè ， shēn tǐ rú shāi kāng yì bān de qǐ dǒu lái le 。
一时间，万籁俱寂，便是罗家老祖，脸上也惨无人色，身体如筛糠一般的起抖来了。
His body inflated like a balloon, growing larger and rounder without warning until it burst with a loud pop, sending blood everywhere. Clearly, this was not voluntary; anyone could see that.
zài rén jiè ， tā yǐ shì dǐng ér jiān ér de qiáng zhě ， píng shí zì rán shēng shā yǔ duó ， rán ér zhēn dào le zhè yī kè 。 fǎ lì yuè gāo de xiū shì ， qí shí yuè pà sǐ 。 yuè ér suǒ biǎo xiàn chū lái de shén tōng ， tài guò shēn ào fán fù ， ràng tā xīng bù qǐ yì diǎn fǎn kàng de niàn tou 。
在人界，他已是顶儿尖儿的强者，平时自然生杀予夺，然而真到了这一刻。法力越高的修士，其实越怕死。月儿所表现出来的神通，太过深奥繁复，让他兴不起一点反抗的念头。
Silence reigned as even the Luo Family patriarch's face turned pale. His body trembled uncontrollably.
lüè yī chóu chú ， tā jū rán pēng de yī shēng guì xià qù le ， lián lián kē tóu ：“ xiān zi ráo mìng ， xiān zi ráo mìng 。”
略一踌躇，他居然嘭的一声跪下去了，连连磕头：“仙子饶命，仙子饶命。”
In the mortal realm, he was one of the strongest beings, accustomed to life and death. But at this moment, his resolve wavered. This was merely a delaying tactic.
shí shí wù zhě wéi jùn jié ， huó xià qù cái shì zuì zhòng yào de ， yǐ xiū xiān zhě de bēi bǐ wú chǐ ， guān jiàn shí kè ， gēn běn jiù bú huì zài hū zūn yán yǔ miàn zi 。
识时务者为俊杰，活下去才是最重要的，以修仙者的卑鄙无耻，关键时刻，根本就不会在乎尊严与面子。
The victor would be the last one standing; even if he had to beg for forgiveness, it mattered not. The ancient elder's mind churned with dark thoughts as he scanned Moonlight. He quickly masked his expression and looked away. His suspicions were confirmed: the silver light around this girl was much dimmer than before.
luó jiā zhòng xiū yī dāi ， píng rì lǐ ， lǎo zǔ zài tā men xīn mǔ zhōng kě shì shén líng yì bān de cún zài ， zuò mèng yě méi xiǎng dào huì kàn jiàn tā rú cǐ bēi wēi qiè ruò de yí miàn 。
罗家众修一呆，平日里，老祖在他们心母中可是神灵一般的存在，做梦也没想到会看见他如此卑微怯弱的一面。
Thus, the ancient elder began to speculate that this girl hadn't inherited any of the Arhats' Queen's powers or even refined the Demon Blood. The white light column must have been a remnant of her power left behind in this world by chance and somehow infused into the girl's body.
xīn zhōng dà gǎn bǐ yí ， rán ér nà xiē jiā huo zài kàn bù qǐ lǎo zǔ de tóng shí ， zì jǐ què yòu háo 。 bù yóu yù de guì le xià qù ， shuō chuān le ， xiū xiān zhě jiù shì tān shēng pà sǐ 。
心中大感鄙夷，然而那些家伙在看不起老祖的同时，自己却又毫。不犹豫的跪了下去，说穿了，修仙者就是贪生怕死。
However, such power would diminish over time, possibly vanishing completely with the passage of years.
hái zhàn zhe de biàn zhǐ shèng xià nà wǔ jiē yāo zú ， jiǔ tóu lǎo zǔ tān huā hào sè ， xiōng cán de shì qíng gàn guò xǔ duō ， bù guò xiāng duì lái shuō ， fǎn dào bǐ luó jiā zhòng xiū shì yǒu gǔ qì yì diǎn de 。
还站着的便只剩下那五阶妖族，九头老祖贪花好色，凶残的事情干过许多，不过相对来说，反倒比罗家众修士有骨气一点的。
In other words, this girl's current "ferocity" was merely borrowing from the Arhats' Queen's residual strength. If he could stall until that power vanished...
qū xī qiú ráo ， tā zì wèn hái bàn bú dào 。
屈膝求饶，他自问还办不到。
She was just a Core Formation Stage ghost girl; dealing with her wouldn't be difficult. He also had the unrefined Demon Blood to exploit. The Luo Family patriarch's heart burned with anticipation, but his expression remained one of fear and panic as he plotted how to deal with Moonlight.
lüè yī chóu chú ， jiǔ tóu lǎo zǔ yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī jué jué zhī sè ， měng rán yòng yòu shǒu zài hòu nǎo yī pāi ， yī kē lóng yǎn dà xiǎo de zhū zi cóng tā zuǐ lǐ fēi le chū lái 。 jīng yíng shǎn shuò ， biǎo miàn jū rán yǒu wǔ sè líng guāng bù tíng liú zhuǎn zhe ， yī kàn jiù shì bù fán zhī wù 。
略一踌躇，九头老祖眼中闪过一丝决绝之色，猛然用右手在后脑一拍，一颗龙眼大小的珠子从他嘴里飞了出来。晶莹闪烁，表面居然有五色灵光不停流转着，一看就是不凡之物。
Unlike the cunning Luo Family patriarch, the other Spirit婴 cultivators were not easily intimidated. Despite their formidable abilities, they dared not harbor any侥幸psychology; after all, she had effortlessly killed a Separation Period monster. How could they still entertain such thoughts?
zhè kě shì tā kǔ xiū mǐn qiān nián suǒ níng chéng de yāo dān 。
这可是他苦修敏千年所凝成的妖丹。
The Luo Family patriarch's gaze fell on his nephews and nieces, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes. Great achievements require no small details; as long as he gained enough benefits for the family, what did it matter? "Zi Cong."
yāo zú xiū xiān bǐ rén lèi gèng jiā jiān nán ， bù guò yǒu shī jiù yǒu dé ， jiù shòu yuán lái shuō ， tā men pǔ biàn yào bǐ rén lèi zhǎng dé duō 。 jiǔ tóu lǎo zǔ kě shì huó le mǐn qiān nián de lǎo guài wù 。
妖族修仙比人类更加艰难，不过有失就有得，就寿元来说，他们普遍要比人类长得多。九头老祖可是活了敏千年的老怪物。
As one of the two later-stage cultivators, Luo Zicong was second only to the patriarch due to his bloodthirsty and cunning nature, making him a clear choice for the next patriarch.
yāo dān lín xuān jiàn guò hěn duō ， bù guò wǔ jiē de què wén suǒ wèi wén ， bì jìng shuí gǎn qù miè shā lí hé qī yāo zú ， nà bú shì lǎo shòu xīng shàng diào ， xián mìng zhǎng me ？
妖丹林轩见过很多，不过五阶的却闻所未闻，毕竟谁敢去灭杀离合期妖族，那不是老寿星上吊，嫌命长么？
After enduring many trials to obtain Demon Blood, they had finally reached this outcome. Could it be that their fate truly lay in the hands of heaven?
ér qiě xiū wèi dào le nà ge děng jí ， bèi hòu kěn dìng dài biǎo yǒu qiáng dà shí lì ， jí biàn wàng tíng lóu ， yě bù gǎn duì wǔ jiē yāo zú qīng yì chū shǒu ， shèng fù zàn qiě bù shuō ， yí bù xiǎo xīn ， jiù huì yǐn lái xuān rán dà bō ， chóng xīn kāi qǐ rén yāo liǎng zú jiān de zhàn huǒ 。 yāo dān kě yǐ rù yào ， kě yǐ liàn bǎo ， wǔ jiē de ， shí nǎi kě yù bù kě qiú zhī wù 。
而且修为到了那个等级，背后肯定代表有强大实力，即便望亭楼，也不敢对五阶妖族轻易出手，胜负暂且不说，一不小心，就会引来轩然大波，重新开启人妖两族间的战火。妖丹可以入药，可以炼宝，五阶的，实乃可遇不可求之物。
Just as he pondered, the patriarch's voice entered his ears. Luo Zicong was taken aback and turned back with suspicion. "Do not move; I am using a secret technique to speak with you and all our disciples. This method is related to bloodline, so even if that girl has strong divine sense, she cannot eavesdrop."
lín xuān suī rán dòng tán bù dé ， dàn kāi kǒu shuō huà hái shì méi yǒu shén me wèn tí de ：“ yuè ér ， nà yāo dān liú xià lái ， shào yé yǒu yòng 。”“ xiǎo bì zhī dào le 。” yuè ér huí guò tóu ， tián tián yī xiào de kāi yī ， liǎn shàng de shā qì wú yǐng wú zōng ， liú lù chū lái de ， zhǐ yǒu nà rú shuǐ de wēn róu 。
林轩虽然动弹不得，但开口说话还是没有什么问题的：“月儿，那妖丹留下来，少爷有用。”“小婢知道了。”月儿回过头，甜甜一笑的开一，脸上的杀气无影无踪，流露出来的，只有那如水的温柔。
Not just Luo Zicong; the remaining eight Luo Family disciples heard their patriarch's voice as well.
luó jiā zhòng xiū shì yě yǒu xiē mí hū ， yǎn qián zhēn de shì ā xiū luó wáng me ？
罗家众修士也有些迷糊，眼前真的是阿修罗王么？
"Remember when I had each of you take a spirit pill?"
cóng qì dù lái shuō ， què shí pǒ duō yí diǎn zhī chù ， táng táng de yīn sī zhī zhǔ ， jí biàn miàn duì zhēn xiān yě bù hán hù ， zěn me huì shì yǎn qián qīng sè de xiǎo yā tou 。
从气度来说，确实颇多疑点之处，堂堂的阴司之主，即便面对真仙也不含糊，怎么会是眼前青涩的小丫头。
Luo Zicong nodded slowly. He remembered it clearly; the pills were wrapped in wax and remained within his body after ingestion.
kě ruò shuō bú shì ， tā de shí lì yòu gāi rú hé jiě shì ， jǔ shǒu tóu zú ， jiù miè shā le lí hé qī xiū xiān zhě ， zhì yú yuán yīng xiū shì ， gèng fǎng fú ní niē zhǐ hú ， huī huī shǒu ， jiù néng ràng duì fāng huī fēi yān miè le 。 zuì gǔ guài de shì ， tā de xiū wèi jǐn jǐn shì níng dān qī ， zhè shì zuì ràng rén bǎi sī bù dé qí jiě de shì 。
可若说不是，她的实力又该如何解释，举手投足，就灭杀了离合期修仙者，至于元婴修士，更仿佛泥捏纸糊，挥挥手，就能让对方灰飞烟灭了。最古怪的是，她的修为仅仅是凝丹期，这是最让人百思不得其解的事。
He was puzzled at the time, asking what purpose this served. The patriarch smiled but did not answer, promising that there would be a reason later.
nán dào qí zhōng lìng yǒu shén me xuán jī ， shì gāng cái nà rǔ bái sè de guāng zhù ， hái shì yǔ xiū luó shén xuè yǒu guān ne ？
难道其中另有什么玄机，是刚才那乳白色的光柱，还是与修罗神血有关呢？
Though he didn't understand, Luo Zicong still took them. He dared not defy the patriarch's orders, and all elders had taken them; it was impossible for the patriarch to harm everyone.
luó jiā lǎo zǔ yī biān mǎn liǎn jù pà de kē tóu ， nǎo hǎi lǐ ， xīn sī què zài bù tíng de zhuǎn dòng ， tā zhè zhǒng děng jí de lǎo guài wù ， jīng lì de fēng yǔ bǐ cháng rén zǒu guò de qiáo hái duō ， qǐ huì zhēn de qīng yì qū fú ， zhè yàng zuò ， bù guò shì huǎn bīng zhī cè 。
罗家老祖一边满脸惧怕的磕头，脑海里，心思却在不停的转动，他这种等级的老怪物，经历的风雨比常人走过的桥还多，岂会真的轻易屈服，这样做，不过是缓兵之策。
"This spirit pill contains a drop of ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk."
xiào dào zuì hòu cái shì shèng lì zhě ， bié shuō kē tóu le ， zhǐ yǒu néng niǔ zhuǎn qián kūn ， shòu zài dà de wǔ rǔ yòu suàn dé le shén me 。 lǎo guài wù xīn zhōng è hěn hěn de xiǎng zhe 。 tā de mù guāng zài yuè ér shēn shàng sǎo guò ， xīn zhōng yī zhèn ， dàn hěn kuài yòu jí hǎo de yǎn shì qǐ lái ， dòng shēng sè de jiāng mù lèi nuó kāi 。 méi yǒu kàn cuò ， zhè xiǎo yā tou shēn tǐ zhōu wéi de yín máng bǐ gāng gāng àn dàn le xǔ duō 。
笑到最后才是胜利者，别说磕头了，只有能扭转乾坤，受再大的侮辱又算得了什么。老怪物心中恶狠狠的想着。他的目光在月儿身上扫过，心中一震，但很快又极好的掩饰起来，动声色的将目类挪开。没有看错，这小丫头身体周围的银芒比刚刚黯淡了许多。
"Ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk?"
yú shì lǎo guài wù kāi shǐ dà dǎn cāi cè ， zhè xiǎo yā tou gēn běn jiù méi yǒu dé dào ā xiū luó wáng de chuán chéng ， shèn zhì lián xiū luó shén xuè dōu méi yǒu liàn huà de 。
于是老怪物开始大胆猜测，这小丫头根本就没有得到阿修罗王的传承，甚至连修罗神血都没有炼化的。
Everyone nearly gasped in shock despite their efforts to conceal it. This legendary substance could only be found with difficulty even in the Spirit Realm, and it was said that just one drop could restore a cultivator's depleted spiritual energy. How did the patriarch have such a treasure?
zhǐ bù guò gāng cái nà rǔ bái sè de guāng zhù ， nǎi shì ā xiū luó wáng liú zài zhè shì jiān de xiē xǔ lì liàng ， bù zhī dào zěn yàng jī yuán qiǎo hé ， bèi nà yā tou guàn zhù zài le shēn tǐ zhī zhōng 。
只不过刚才那乳白色的光柱，乃是阿修罗王留在这世间的些许力量，不知道怎样机缘巧合，被那丫头灌注在了身体之中。
And yet, he had given them this freely beforehand?
dàn zhè yàng de lì liàng ， shì yòng yì diǎn shǎo yì diǎn ， shèn zhì suí zhe shí jiān de liú shì ， yě yǒu kě néng màn màn xiāo shī 。
但这样的力量，是用一点少一点，甚至随着时间的流逝，也有可能慢慢消失。
Despite their astonishment, they couldn't continue to question him now. The patriarch's voice continued: "This quest for treasures didn't go as planned, but I left a contingency plan. After all these battles, your spiritual energy is nearly depleted. Follow my instructions and break the wax pill, then consume the spirit milk; you will regain full strength."
huàn jù huà shuō ， zhè yā tou cǐ kè zhī suǒ yǐ néng “ xiōng yàn wàn zhàng ” bù guò shì hú jiǎ hǔ wēi ， jiè yòng le ā xiū luó wáng cán cún zài shì jiān de lì liàng ér yǐ ， zì jǐ rú guǒ néng gòu xiǎng bàn fǎ tuō dào nà lì liàng xiāo shī ……
换句话说，这丫头此刻之所以能“凶焰万丈”不过是狐假虎威，借用了阿修罗王残存在世间的力量而已，自己如果能够想办法拖到那力量消失……
"The woman before us is terrifying, but no matter what, I cannot let any of you die here. Otherwise, the Luo Family's lineage in Tianzhou would truly be extinguished. After consuming the spirit milk, run for your lives. I will use our family's secret technique to stop her; even if we can't defeat her, we should be able to buy some time."
duì fāng bù guò yī qū qū níng dān qī guǐ nǚ ， duì fù tā bù fèi chuī huī zhī lì ， hái yǒu duì fāng wèi céng liàn huà de xiū luó shén xuè ， xiǎng dào cǐ chù ， luó jiā lǎo zǔ xīn - zhōng yī piàn huǒ rè ， dàn biǎo miàn shàng ， yī jiù shì yī fù huāng zhāng hài pà zhī sè 。 xīn zhōng móu huà qǐ zěn me duì fù yuè ér lái le 。
对方不过一区区凝丹期鬼女，对付她不费吹灰之力，还有对方未曾炼化的修罗神血，想到此处，罗家老祖心-中一片火热，但表面上，依旧是一副慌张害怕之色。心中谋划起怎么对付月儿来了。
The patriarch spoke with a sense of righteousness.
yǔ luó jiā lǎo zǔ ，：f jī shēn chén bù tóng ， qí tā de yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， suī rán yí gè èr gè ， yě bú shì yì yú zhī bèi ， dàn cǐ duì cǐ kè 。 què méi yǒu duō yú de xiǎng fǎ ， bì jìng duì fāng lián lí hé qī lǎo guài dōu néng qīng yì miè shā ， tā men nǎ lǐ hái gǎn xīn cún jiǎo xìng a ！ luó jiā lǎo zǔ wàng zhe shēn biān de zi zhí ， yǎn qián shǎn guò yī sī hěn dú zhī sè 。 sú huà shuō ， chéng dà shì zhě bù jū xiǎo jié ， zhǐ yào zì jǐ néng gòu dé dào zú gòu de hǎo chù ， jiā zú yòu suàn dé le shén me ？“ zi cōng 。”
与罗家老祖，：f机深沉不同，其他的元婴期修仙者，虽然一个二个，也不是易于之辈，但此对此刻。却没有多余的想法，毕竟对方连离合期老怪都能轻易灭杀，他们哪里还敢心存侥幸啊！罗家老祖望着身边的子侄，眼前闪过一丝狠毒之色。俗话说，成大事者不拘小节，只要自己能够得到足够的好处，家族又算得了什么？“子聪。”
The elders were stunned but moved by his words. They knew what the secret technique entailed—burning one's life force for power, resulting in death and soul scattering. But now that they had a chance at survival, everyone was filled with excitement.
zuò wèi zú lǐ de liǎng míng hòu qī xiū shì zhī yī ， luó zi cōng de shēn fèn jǐn cì yú lǎo zǔ ， bì jìng xuè luó tóng zi cán rěn dǎi dú ， ér cháng xiù shàn wǔ de tā yǐ shì nèi dìng hǎo de zú zhǎng rén xuǎn le 。
做为族里的两名后期修士之一，罗子聪的身份仅次于老祖，毕竟血罗童子残忍歹毒，而长袖善舞的他已是内定好的族长人选了。
Their previous disdain and resentment toward the patriarch vanished, replaced by admiration and gratitude.
zhè cì qǔ xiū luó shén xuè lì jīng qū zhé ， rán ér dà jiā yǎo yǎo yá yě dōu kè fú guò lái le 「 méi xiǎng dào zuì hòu què yǎn biàn chéng zhè zhǒng jié guǒ ， nán dào zhēn shì tiān yào wáng wǒ luó jiā 。
这次取修罗神血历经曲折，然而大家咬咬牙也都克服过来了「没想到最后却演变成这种结果，难道真是天要亡我罗家。
Unfortunately, none of them noticed the smug and mocking look in the Luo Family patriarch's eyes.
zhèng xīn zhōng tǎn tè ， lǎo zǔ de chuán yīn jiù jìn rù le ěr duǒ ， luó zi cōng bù yóu de yī dāi ， yǒu xiē hú yí de huí guò tóu lái 。“ bú yào dòng ， lǎo fū xiàn zài shì yòng mì shù yǔ nǐ hái yǒu suǒ yǒu de dì zǐ shuō huà ， zhè zhǒng mì fǎ yǔ xuè mài yǒu guān ， jiù suàn nà yā tou shén shí zài qiáng ， yě wú fǎ tōu tīng 。” bù zhǐ luó zi cōng yí gè ， cán cún xià lái de bā míng luó jiā dì zi ， quán dōu tīng dào lǎo zǔ zōng de chuán yīn le 。“ nǐ men kě hái jì de chū qián ， wǒ ràng nǐ men měi rén fú shí le yī lì líng dān 。”
正心中忐忑，老祖的传音就进入了耳朵，罗子聪不由得一呆，有些狐疑的回过头来。“不要动，老夫现在是用秘术与你还有所有的弟子说话，这种秘法与血脉有关，就算那丫头神识再强，也无法偷听。”不止罗子聪一个，残存下来的八名罗家弟子，全都听到老祖宗的传音了。“你们可还记得出前，我让你们每人服食了一粒灵丹。”
Most cultivators were selfish, but there were exceptions like Lin Xuan and Moonlight. The patriarch, however, had no such intentions.
luó zi cōng dòng zuò jí huǎn de diǎn le diǎn tóu ， tā zì rán jì de ， nà dān yào biǎo miàn bèi yī céng là bāo guǒ ， fú xià hòu zhǐ shì tíng liú zài shēn tǐ zhōng 。
罗子聪动作极缓的点了点头，他自然记得，那丹药表面被一层蜡包裹，服下后只是停留在身体中。
Moonlight was unaware of his machinations as she stared intently at the Nine-Headed Elder. Master said that the demon pill would be useful; she must obtain it. It seemed she hadn't given Lin Xuan a gift in two hundred years, and Moonlight didn't want to disappoint him.
Following this, a silver light flashed. The broken corpse ignited on its own and turned to ashes in an instant. A collective intake of breath echoed as everyone was stunned. The Nine Heavens Xuan Zun was indeed a Separation Period cultivator, yet he had been utterly defeated without any resistance. Could the woman before them truly be the Arhats' Queen? However, upon scanning her with his divine sense, her cultivation level was only at Core Formation Stage—this was too unbelievable!
The two ancient elders exchanged glances, their faces filled with fear. The other Spirit婴 cultivators were even more speechless; such a result was beyond their wildest dreams. After enduring countless hardships, they had expected the ultimate disaster instead.
"Ahh!"
A cry of shock entered Lin Xuan's ears as one of the Luo Family elders could no longer bear it and turned into a streak of light, fleeing down the mountain with all his might. However, such an action was incredibly foolish at this moment.
Moonlight was gentle and obedient before Lin Xuan, but to others, she was anything but. Her jade hand rose slowly toward them. The escaping cultivator's flight abruptly halted as he realized that the spiritual energy within him no longer obeyed his will. This wasn't the worst part.
His body inflated like a balloon, growing larger and rounder without warning until it burst with a loud pop, sending blood everywhere. Clearly, this was not voluntary; anyone could see that.
Silence reigned as even the Luo Family patriarch's face turned pale. His body trembled uncontrollably.
In the mortal realm, he was one of the strongest beings, accustomed to life and death. But at this moment, his resolve wavered. This was merely a delaying tactic.

Unlike the cunning Luo Family patriarch, the other Spirit婴 cultivators were not easily intimidated. Despite their formidable abilities, they dared not harbor any侥幸psychology; after all, she had effortlessly killed a Separation Period monster. How could they still entertain such thoughts?
The Luo Family patriarch's gaze fell on his nephews and nieces, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes. Great achievements require no small details; as long as he gained enough benefits for the family, what did it matter? "Zi Cong."
As one of the two later-stage cultivators, Luo Zicong was second only to the patriarch due to his bloodthirsty and cunning nature, making him a clear choice for the next patriarch.
After enduring many trials to obtain Demon Blood, they had finally reached this outcome. Could it be that their fate truly lay in the hands of heaven?
Just as he pondered, the patriarch's voice entered his ears. Luo Zicong was taken aback and turned back with suspicion. "Do not move; I am using a secret technique to speak with you and all our disciples. This method is related to bloodline, so even if that girl has strong divine sense, she cannot eavesdrop."
Not just Luo Zicong; the remaining eight Luo Family disciples heard their patriarch's voice as well.
"Remember when I had each of you take a spirit pill?"
Luo Zicong nodded slowly. He remembered it clearly; the pills were wrapped in wax and remained within his body after ingestion.
He was puzzled at the time, asking what purpose this served. The patriarch smiled but did not answer, promising that there would be a reason later.
Though he didn't understand, Luo Zicong still took them. He dared not defy the patriarch's orders, and all elders had taken them; it was impossible for the patriarch to harm everyone.
"This spirit pill contains a drop of ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk."
"Ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk?"
Everyone nearly gasped in shock despite their efforts to conceal it. This legendary substance could only be found with difficulty even in the Spirit Realm, and it was said that just one drop could restore a cultivator's depleted spiritual energy. How did the patriarch have such a treasure?
And yet, he had given them this freely beforehand?
Despite their astonishment, they couldn't continue to question him now. The patriarch's voice continued: "This quest for treasures didn't go as planned, but I left a contingency plan. After all these battles, your spiritual energy is nearly depleted. Follow my instructions and break the wax pill, then consume the spirit milk; you will regain full strength."
"The woman before us is terrifying, but no matter what, I cannot let any of you die here. Otherwise, the Luo Family's lineage in Tianzhou would truly be extinguished. After consuming the spirit milk, run for your lives. I will use our family's secret technique to stop her; even if we can't defeat her, we should be able to buy some time."
The patriarch spoke with a sense of righteousness.
The elders were stunned but moved by his words. They knew what the secret technique entailed—burning one's life force for power, resulting in death and soul scattering. But now that they had a chance at survival, everyone was filled with excitement.
Their previous disdain and resentment toward the patriarch vanished, replaced by admiration and gratitude.
Unfortunately, none of them noticed the smug and mocking look in the Luo Family patriarch's eyes.
Most cultivators were selfish, but there were exceptions like Lin Xuan and Moonlight. The patriarch, however, had no such intentions.
Moonlight was unaware of his machinations as she stared intently at the Nine-Headed Elder. Master said that the demon pill would be useful; she must obtain it. It seemed she hadn't given Lin Xuan a gift in two hundred years, and Moonlight didn't want to disappoint him.
