Chapter 136: The Overwhelming Divine Punishment

A wisp of breeze curled from her fingertips, brushing over Xia Baiqian and Bai Li like moonlight.

Instantly, it soothed their turbulent spiritual energy.

Her crimson eyes narrowed slightly as she gazed calmly ahead.

The colossal human-skin monster and two sky-obscuring goat hooves bore down with overwhelming might, covering the heavens and earth.

The Feinye Chixiao sword trembled lightly in her hand. Though the blade had yet to move, a resonant clang already echoed through the void.

Chu Huaizhou stood to the side, his eyelids twitching as he watched the ferocious, overwhelmingly powerful aberrant beast.

He couldn’t help poking Bai Li’s arm and lowering his voice:

“Bai Li, are you sure you don’t need to give Yinlu some auxiliary spells? That formation on the other side is pretty scary…”

Bai Li’s amber eyes were full of certainty:

“Little Lulu said it’s not needed, so it’s really not needed, meow~”

“You might have forgotten, but Little Lulu is super strong, meow.”

She flicked her tail, the nine large fox tails swinging leisurely behind her.

“She even created a super sword art like the ‘Final Judgment World-Severing Sword Scripture.’ This empress doesn’t really understand it.”

“When it was first created, it incurred the jealousy of Heaven’s Dao, which sent down a Heavenly Tribulation. Later, those old fossils in the sect scrambled to enshrine it at the top of the Scripture Pavilion as a sect-guarding sword art, meow!”

Chu Huaizhou was stunned. It sounded incredibly advanced. Before he could ask what kind of sword art it was,

Meng Yinlu’s crimson eyes suddenly burst with brilliant divine radiance.

Her originally cute and soft demeanor vanished in an instant, replaced by a lonely majesty that transcended all beings.

Delicate black-gold Dao patterns emerged on her snow-white skin.

Her high black ponytail swayed without wind, every strand of hair entwined with destructive black-gold lightning.

Her crimson lips parted slightly, like a deity, and her voice was ethereal, as if from beyond the heavens:

“Divine Thunder Judgment Calamity: Nine Stellar Extreme Punishment!”

The blade was reversed. She gripped Feinye Chixiao in a backhand hold, raising it vertically before her.

As the sword edge fell heavily—

“Boom!!!—”

The entire space plunged into absolute darkness in an instant. Only the black-gold thunderbolts erupting from the sword tip coiled like dragons, tearing through the void.

The black-gold thunder roared like furious dragons, ripping through the void!

The cave—no, this place had long been expanded dozens of times to accommodate those flesh-and-blood beasts.

It should be called a giant sinkhole.

Ten thousand streaks of thunder surged in all directions from her center.

Wherever they passed, whether twisting, writhing flesh, roaring monsters,

or the contaminated flesh-rock walls, everything was reduced to ashes in the thunder!

This was not a battle; it was one-sided domination.

As far as the eye could see, it was nothing but divine punishment!

Only the two goat hooves had rotting pits from which flesh maggots continuously spewed.

They neutralized the thunder assault, achieving a delicate balance.

Next, before the thunder light had fully dissipated.

Meng Yin turned her wrists, letting Feinye Chixiao spin a perfect sword flower in her palm before sheathing it.

The motion was fluid and graceful. The moment the scabbard closed, her thumb pressed against the guard.

Then—

“Void Transcendence, Abyss Sinking Blade!”

Draw the sword!

Zheng—!

A clear, piercing sword cry suddenly exploded!

A black-gold arc, like the dawn breaking through, illuminated the entire cave in an instant.

This sword light was so pure that even heaven and earth paled before it.

Wherever the light reached, whether physically existent monsters or conceptual contamination,

they all vanished silently, like pencil marks erased by a rubber.

Two breaths later.

Nothing abnormal remained in everyone’s sight. Even the cave had returned to the state affected by Bai Li’s domain.

On the crisp, white radish-like ground, a few leaves grew, swaying joyfully in the lingering sword energy.

Chu Huaizhou opened his mouth, and after a long while, squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth:

“Seriously… this can no longer be described as ‘overpowered’…”

Watching Meng Yinlu, who seemed like a living deity, he couldn’t help but wonder.

At the same cultivation level as her, could he defeat her?

The answer… was probably no.

Chu Huaizhou knew in his gut that with his disciple-recruiting rebate system,

he had probably always relied on cultivation superiority to overpower others, and he only grasped the Sword Dao.

The third disciple’s combat talent clearly overwhelmed his.

This made him, as her master, feel quite embarrassed.

Good thing he had amnesia, so he didn’t have to guide disciples’ cultivation.

Otherwise, he felt he would make a huge fool of himself. Of course, his warmhearted little cotton-padded jacket would never do anything to embarrass him.

Meng Yinlu sheathed her sword, turned around, and walked over to Chu Huaizhou with small, quick steps.

The sharpness on her body receded. Her expression was cool, but the corners of her eyes slightly lifted.

That lone hair on her head stood up tall and swayed lightly.

From Chu Huaizhou’s understanding of his third disciple,

she was probably in a good mood and wanting him to pat her head.

Chu Huaizhou raised his hand and patted Meng Yinlu’s little head, which was half a head shorter than his.

“Little Yinlu dear, you did very well. I knew you could do it.”

His tone was affectionate, as if coaxing a child.

If this trick were used on outsiders, anyone would probably mutter ‘childish’ in their hearts.

But not Meng Yinlu. She narrowed her eyes, her crimson lips slightly parted, unconsciously making a sound like a kitten’s purr.

She looked utterly content, her body swaying gently.

Meng Yinlu perhaps felt this wasn’t enough, or maybe she sensed her master’s state of mind was different.

After a moment’s hesitation, she directly embraced him, wrapping her arms around his waist.

“Duang~”

With a subtle difference from Bai Li’s version, she bumped into Chu Huaizhou’s chest.

Yet he felt not a trace of inappropriate emotion, just a pure embrace.

Because Chu Huaizhou could clearly feel that this child was simply…

wanting a hug.

It was just… before, due to her weaker strength, he hadn’t noticed.

Now, Chu Huaizhou suddenly realized that the contrast in Yinlu was enormous.

The her from moments ago, emotionless and capable of destroying heaven and earth, and the her now, infinitely gentle and adorable, were like two different people!

The two were very close. Bai Li also wanted to squeeze in and be petted together.

But considering that Little Lulu hadn’t seen their master for a long time, she gave the chance to her.

After all, this empress and Little Lulu are the best in the world. Though she and her are tied for first.

Xia Baiqian rolled her eyes internally, also feeling a bit emotional.

If the senior sister made such a move,

she would definitely think in her heart, ‘pure pretender.’

But this was Meng Yinlu. She could only say, ‘Can’t be helped, that’s just her personality.’

Not a trace of rivalry arose.

Of course, if Junior Sister Yinlu really wanted to do something to Master,

Xia Baiqian would definitely stop it. That was certain.

Ye Feng and Di Xiaoyao, who was in a soul-out-of-body state, both gaped, watching in shock.

They really looked like a master and disciple.

Ye Feng was practically drooling at Meng Yinlu.

Th-this… is this right?

Clearly, she looks cold and aloof, not at all approachable.

She looks like an icy beauty similar to Master Chu.

Why does she show that cute expression when facing Master Chu?

Is this natural airheadedness?! Too—too amazing!

Goddess sister!!!

Just thinking that she would also, according to custom, become her master, Ye Feng couldn’t help feeling thrilled.

Beautiful and with supreme strength.

Coming to Tianyuan Sword Sect was truly the best decision she had made in her life!

I wonder what Elder Di thinks?

His previous boasting doesn’t seem as grand as this scene.
