Villainess Rampage: The Whole Sect Begs for Mercy

But its surprise immediately gave way to rage.

Since it wasn’t a demon beast, it was unaffected by the Golden Dragon’s bloodline suppression.

Humiliated by the momentary suppression, it launched an even fiercer dive toward Song Wanning.

But the Golden Dragon merely shot it a cool glance before roaring and charging down.

Her tail whipped back and forth, smashing any approaching monsters to smithereens.

Soon, she neared the monster and swiped a claw at it.

”ROAR—”

The dragon’s cry made the surrounding monsters tremble in fear.

But the monster was reckless. It roared and charged forward to meet the attack, only to be struck by the claw a second later.

”BOOM—”

With a loud bang, the monster’s bones were instantly shattered.

It let out a miserable shriek, squealing as it retreated.

But Song Wanning gave it no chance to escape.

Back then, the Golden Dragon Clan had been driven to extinction trying to wipe out these monsters. This was a debt that had to be settled, bit by bit.

”ROAR—”

The dragon’s cry rang out again. Song Wanning swept through them, and wherever she passed, the monsters were crushed so completely that not a single whole bone could be found.

The lead monster didn’t escape either; it was struck squarely by her dragon tail.

”ROAR!”

The monster let out a heaven-shaking scream before being sent flying. In mid-air, it dissolved into a mist of blood.

The blood rained down on the other monsters, and almost instantly, they retreated in terror.

But before everyone could celebrate, the monsters, as if driven by some unseen force, charged at the group once more.

You could see that they didn’t want to rush to their deaths, but they couldn’t control the power behind them. They could only passively offer up their lives, becoming sacrificial pawns.

Song Wanning’s gaze darkened, her disgust for the Wood Sculpture Realm growing even stronger.

For its own benefit, the Wood Sculpture Realm’s Heavenly Dao had truly gone mad.

It would stop at nothing!

She let out a furious roar and dove toward the monsters again.

Her body was massive; with a single move, she could annihilate a huge swath of monsters.

But this transformation consumed too much Spiritual Power, and Song Wanning didn’t dare maintain it for too long.

However, the situation was critical. She had to hold on a little longer.

Before the storm, Yun Yangzi and the others had already swallowed several Elixir Pills to replenish their absorbed energy.

But it still wasn’t enough. The energy in their bodies was quickly depleted, forcing them to take more Elixir Pills as their expressions grew anxious.

From the very beginning, they had considered this possibility.

They had no idea how much energy was needed to activate the Array. Once it took hold, they wouldn’t be able to stop it even if they wanted to!

Just like now. Even if they wanted to pull away, they couldn’t.

They had become one with the Array.

Helpless, they had no choice but to take out their sacrificial offerings—Spirit Stones, Magic Stones, and more. They used everything they had that could replenish energy.

Song Wanning and the others were fighting so hard to control the monsters; they couldn’t afford to hold them back!

As the Array grew brighter, Mo Yang Immortal Venerable’s expression in the Immortal Realm became increasingly grave. The seal had also begun to loosen; it seemed the influence from the Lower World was still immense.

This Heavenly Abyss was too close to the eye of the storm. The slightest disturbance to the seal affected the entire structure. Separating the Immortal Realm was truly no easy task.

His brow furrowed, and he silently clenched his fists.

’I just hope everything goes smoothly...’

Time passed, second by second. Song Wanning had long since reverted to her human form, weaving through the monsters.

She wanted to use Divine Thunder but didn’t dare. This was a critical moment for the Array’s activation. If the Divine Thunder interfered, her mistake would be unforgivable!

Looking up at the Array, Song Wanning grew more and more worried.

’I’ve never felt time pass so slowly.’

The seniors’ faces were already pale. All their energy-replenishing items had been used up, and now the Array was on the verge of draining them completely dry.

But the Array was still activating slowly. It wouldn’t succeed in a short amount of time!

And the seniors were at their limit.

She watched helplessly as their Cultivation began to regress, their faces turning deathly pale at a rapid rate.

Everyone’s expression turned grim, but they held on.

”Everyone, hold steady!”

Yun Yangzi felt his Cultivation rapidly declining and panic set in, but he didn’t forget to reassure the others.

If anyone lost their composure now, they would all be finished!

They had no way of turning back. Even with their Cultivation regressing, they could only grit their teeth and push on.

They exchanged glances, their gazes becoming even more resolute.

At this moment, their worries seemed to vanish.

”If we die, we die! Dying here would be worth it!”

The Demon King suddenly burst out laughing, his tone as carefree as ever.

Even if they died, they would be dying while contributing to the world. That was better than dying at someone else’s hands.

As if finding joy in their suffering, he made the others laugh.

”That’s right! I’ve already died once, so dying again is nothing to be afraid of!”

Meng Po chimed in with a smile, ”To be here today with so many distinguished seniors is my honor!”

”Hahaha, well said! We’ve lived for so long, what storms haven’t we seen? The worst that can happen is death, and that’s nothing to fear!”

Yun Yangzi began to laugh as well.

’Even without me, the Ancient Cold Sect will soon have a new Mahayana cultivator.’

’So, everything will be fine. The world will keep turning, no matter who is gone!’

Hearing everyone’s words, the Clan Leader of the Grass and Wood Clan also showed a faint smile.

”To fight alongside all of you today is an honor, even in death! Hahaha—”

They had once been strangers, but Song Wanning had brought them all together.

This was fate—a fate to live and die together.

The group’s self-deprecating banter reached the ears of Song Wanning and her two companions.

Baili Shang’s eyes were firm as he smiled and looked at the Demon King.

”Father, whether we live or die, your son will follow you!”

”If there’s a next life, I want to be your son again!”

His eyes reddened slightly, but his gaze was full of pride.

Pride in the Demon King!

”You little rascal!”

The corners of the Demon King’s eyes reddened too. ”The Demon Palace is waiting for you. You better stay alive for me!”

He cursed with a laugh, but his heart was filled with emotion.

Song Wanning continued to clear out the monsters, her attacks growing even more ferocious.

’I don’t want these people to die!’

’I don’t want anyone to die!’

Xuan Yan sensed her emotions and sighed silently.

Seeing everyone bravely facing death, his own feelings suddenly became much more complex.

’So people really are different from one another!’

’So there really are so many people in the world who are different from me!’

’Thinking back on my own past actions, they seem so laughable and childish now.’

But there was nothing he could do except attack the monsters with even more vigor!

...

But their heroic devotion brought no change.

The group’s Cultivation regressed more and more severely, and their bodies grew increasingly unsteady.

If the Array hadn’t been holding them in place, they would have collapsed long ago!
