Villainess Rampage: The Whole Sect Begs for Mercy

The Demon Cultivators of the Peacock Clan were utterly enraged.

Gong Ye had so cruelly murdered the young mistress of their Peacock Clan. This was a provocation, an unforgivable act!

The entire group went berserk, charging toward the Hundred Demons Palace.

The elders of the Peacock Clan were also heartbroken. Flower Peacock was a child they had watched grow up, a prodigy of exceptional talent. Though she sometimes had a foul temper, that was no issue in the face of her strength.

Now that she had been slain by Gong Ye, they wanted nothing more than to flay him alive!

”We’ll avenge her!!!”

”CHARGE—”

The elders quickly joined the battle, their movements swift and their attacks utterly ruthless as they vented their pent-up fury.

As for the Clan Leader, he looked as though his very soul had been hollowed out, his eyes bloodshot with grief.

By the time he came to his senses, he was already radiating killing intent.

”GONG YE—”

He let out a heaven-shaking roar and, in the next instant, reverted to his true form.

Today, he would bathe the Hundred Demons Palace in blood!

The Peacock Clan went on a rampage.

The Snake Clan found out about this after the fact and could hardly contain their glee.

They had only been allies and had feared the Peacock Clan might suddenly betray them. Who would have thought Gong Ye would actually kill Flower Peacock?

Now, the Peacock Clan and the Hundred Demons Palace were mortal enemies with no room for reconciliation!

’Isn’t this a wonderful turn of events?’

The Snake Clan’s Clan Leader immediately gave the order: a full-scale assault on the Hundred Demons Palace.

By the time Gong Ye rushed back, the Hundred Demons Palace was already a pile of rubble.

’Trying to fight us?’

’How naive!!!’

In an instant, screams echoed throughout the Hundred Demons Palace. Blood splattered everywhere, and severed limbs flew through the air. The scene was especially gruesome.

Meanwhile, Gong Ye, trapped within the Array, finally noticed something was wrong after a frantic, violent attempt to break it. He quickly forced himself to calm down.

’Brute force will only get me covered in wounds; it won’t break this Array!’

He quickly composed himself, his gaze fixed on the Array with a chilling intensity.

When he heard the anxious voice transmission from his trusted subordinate, he finally understood and laughed, but it was a laugh born of fury.

He had originally thought Song Wanning left Flower Peacock behind to trap their enemies together, but it turned out she had been digging a pit for him from the very beginning!

’She already knew the Peacock Clan was conspiring with the Snake Clan to besiege the Hundred Demons Palace. So she also calculated that I’d be overcome with rage and kill Flower Peacock to vent my anger!’

Everything had been part of that woman’s calculations.

Gong Ye never imagined he would be so thoroughly outmaneuvered by Song Wanning. He truly wanted to see what went on inside that woman’s head to have predicted his mindset with such accuracy.

Ever since arriving in this world, his temper had been foul, especially after being abandoned by the Snake Clan.

As his power and Cultivation grew, his temper became even more erratic. He would kill anyone who slightly displeased him, which was why he carried such heavy negative karma.

And yet, Song Wanning had seen right through him after only a brief encounter...

’Truly... a woman you can’t help but love and hate!’

Gong Ye concealed the complex emotions in his eyes and began to seriously consider how to break the Array.

’The Hundred Demons Palace... I know it’s probably lost. All I can do is tell my subordinates to flee. Save as many as can be saved.’

’As long as I’m alive, the Hundred Demons Palace lives. It can be rebuilt sooner or later!’

...

The Hundred Demons Palace was washed in blood. The Demon Cultivators were either dead or had fled, leaving behind nothing but crumbling ruins and a field of corpses.

Still not satisfied, the Peacock Clan finished demolishing the Hundred Demons Palace and began posting bounties for any information on Gong Ye’s whereabouts.

However, they and the Snake Clan didn’t rest. They divided all the transportable resources from the Hundred Demons Palace between them.

At the same time, they successfully took over the cities and surrounding territories that had been under the Hundred Demons Palace’s control.

News of the Hundred Demons Palace’s downfall quickly spread throughout the length and breadth of the Demon Race’s lands.

Many sighed at the news. After all, the Hundred Demons Palace had only recently been established; no one had expected it to meet its demise so quickly.

As for the bounty, however, most people paid it little mind.

Gong Ye was a Mahayana cultivator. They didn’t dare provoke him, much less reveal his location.

No amount of money was worth more than their lives.

Everyone had their priorities straight.

Meanwhile, Song Wanning and Liu Lan Yi were still searching for the Soul Exchange Pearl. Naturally, they also learned of this news from her clone.

Hearing that events were unfolding exactly as she had planned, a smile touched Song Wanning’s lips.

’These invaders all have one thing in common: they believe they’re different from the natives and carry a strong sense of superiority.’

’They even see themselves as the Chosen One and act without restraint.’

’The others before were like that, and Gong Ye, with his higher Cultivation, is even more so.’

’After all, deep down, he looks down on everyone else, thinking he’s already invincible.’

And that was precisely why Song Wanning had been able to outmaneuver him.

Now that Gong Ye was mortal enemies with both the Snake Clan and the Peacock Clan, his days ahead would be anything but leisurely.

At this thought, her mood brightened considerably.

The most pressing task now was to find the Soul Exchange Pearl, which would allow them to deal another blow to Gong Ye.

Just then, Liu Lan Yi called out from a short distance away, ”Wan Ning, come over here.”

”Coming!”

Song Wanning immediately flew over.

For days, they had been conducting a carpet search of the yellow sands with their Divine Sense but had found no trace of the Soul Exchange Pearl.

’Could it be she’s found something?’

She quickly landed and looked at the small mound Liu Lan Yi was pointing to.

There were many such mounds in the yellow sands, but this one was different.

Her Divine Sense couldn’t penetrate it!

’There’s something wrong with this mound.’

The two exchanged a look, raised their defenses, and Liu Lan Yi reached out to grab the mound.

Just as her hand was about to touch it, something suddenly shot out from within.

Liu Lan Yi and Song Wanning quickly tried to grab it, but their hands closed on empty air.

They could only watch as the object flew into the sky and vanished like a shooting star.

”It wasn’t the Soul Exchange Pearl.”

Liu Lan Yi let out a sigh of relief and withdrew her gaze.

But that streak of light just now... it didn’t seem to be anything ordinary.

Song Wanning frowned. Just as she was about to speak, the ground beneath her feet began to shake.

She and Liu Lan Yi simultaneously shot into the air. Looking down, they saw that the spot where the mound had been was now a gaping hole, and it was constantly growing larger.

And the more they looked, the more the hole resembled a giant mouth.

All the surrounding yellow sand began to shift, sliding down into the newly formed opening.

”RUMBLE—”

The entire desert of yellow sand began to funnel madly toward the opening, the sound shaking the heavens and the earth.

Song Wanning flew even higher. Looking down from above, she realized the opening was located in the exact center of the vast expanse of yellow sand!

An endless stream of yellow sand was being devoured by this opening, making it look like a colossal monster swallowing everything in its path.

An infinite amount of yellow sand swirled into the air, quickly obscuring their vision.
