Chapter 274 Self-destruction
She lowered her eyes slightly, concealing the complex emotions churning within them, her tone tinged with awkwardness and embarrassment: "What happened before was indeed my fault. I was blind and misled by a villain, which caused you a lot of trouble. I'm truly sorry."
Shen Yunxi glanced at her indifferently, her eyes calm and unwavering, and said nothing.
At that moment, a dazzling streak of light pierced the sky, falling like a meteor, its brilliant light illuminating everyone's faces.
As the light faded, an elderly man dressed in blue with long, white eyebrows, exuding an air of otherworldly grace, appeared out of thin air before everyone.
His sharp gaze swept over the demon corpses on the ground, and his face instantly darkened.
With a sudden flick of his wide sleeves, a torrent of powerful soul energy surged forth, quickly condensing into a rope shimmering with golden light, tightly binding the demon's corpse.
"How could there be demons in Xuantian?" The old man muttered in disbelief, his cloudy eyes fixed on the demon corpse on the ground, a solemn expression appearing on his aged face: "When did these demons infiltrate Xuantian? Did they sneak in?"
The old man guessed in a low voice, his tone full of doubt and worry.
However, there is a natural barrier between the Xuan Tian Continent and the Demon Realm. How did they break through the barrier to get here?
Just then, the corners of the demon corpses turned up in a strange way, revealing a sinister and terrifying smile, as if the evil spirits of hell were mocking the ignorance of the world.
"No, they're going to blow themselves up!"
The old man's expression changed drastically, alarm bells rang in his mind, and without thinking, he quickly set up a barrier to protect Shen Yunxi and the others.
Almost simultaneously, a deafening explosion resounded across Phoenix Mountain, as if the heavens and earth were collapsing and the mountains were shaking.
A powerful shockwave swept in like a hurricane, snapping ancient trees in half, sending shards of rock flying, and filling the sky with dust that blotted out the sun.
After the shockwave from the explosion, the once lush and dense forest of Fengqi Mountain was turned into a living hell.
The scorched earth was stained with blood, a shocking sight resembling a painting of hell.
Severed limbs and broken arms hung from tree branches, swaying gently in the eerie wind, like summoning banners from hell.
The air was filled with a nauseating stench of blood, so strong it was almost suffocating.
Xiao Chuhuang felt a churning in her stomach, her face turned ashen, and she staggered to the side, grabbing onto a charred tree trunk before bending over and dry heaving.
Bai Ruoan was in no better condition. His face was as pale as paper, his body trembled slightly, and he kept his eyes tightly closed, not daring to look at the terrifying scene that resembled a living hell.
The strong smell of blood mixed with the nauseating stench of burning flesh assaulted her sense of smell, making her almost vomit.
Zhi Yan stared indifferently at the hellish scene before him, his eyes cold and devoid of any emotion.
His gaze slowly swept over the ravaged land, seemingly unmoved by this human tragedy.
Only when his gaze fell on Shen Yunxi did a hint of worry appear on his previously expressionless face. His tightly pursed lips parted slightly, and his deep voice trembled slightly: "Sister is injured."
"Mother!" Shen Ruoning exclaimed, her small figure rushing towards Shen Yunxi like an arrow, throwing herself into her arms and anxiously checking her injuries.
"Mommy, where are you hurt? Let me see!" Her childish voice was full of worry and concern. Her little hands gently touched Shen Yunxi's wound, and she was so heartbroken that tears were about to fall.
