AWB Chapter 253 Challenge Letter
Chapter 253 Challenge Letter
"Xia Mengchu?" Xie Wanxun muttered to herself, a figure flashing through her mind.
Could she be Xia Mengqi's older sister?
Xie Wanxun stood up and gently removed the veil from Xia Mengchu's face. Indeed, she looked nine-tenths like Xia Mengqi.
However, the person in front of him was very thin, and even his face was very pale.
Xie Wanxun frowned, looked at Xia Mengchu, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"
Xia Mengchu just stared blankly at Xie Wanxun, her eyes completely wooden, as if she had no soul.
Meili, who was standing nearby, quickly stepped forward to explain, "Your Majesty, please don't blame Xiao Chu. She was used by Shen Yuan as a test subject for medicine, and she is no longer the same as ordinary people. She is not good at getting along with people."
As she spoke, Meili stood in front of Xia Mengchu, looked up at Xie Wanxun with fear in her eyes, but refused to back down.
Is she different from ordinary people?
Xie Wanxun frowned in confusion. When she touched Xia Mengchu just now, she found that her body was cold and even the blood in her body had stopped flowing, making her no different from a corpse.
Is the person standing in front of her now Xia Mengchu, or a puppet?
"Get out of the way," Xie Wanxun ordered, standing up.
Meili shook herself and moved her feet reluctantly.
Xie Wanxun stepped forward, and a wisp of demonic energy shot out from his hand and entered Xia Mengchu's body.
Xie Wanxun's brows furrowed even more. Xia Mengchu in front of her was now a corpse, her internal organs already damaged.
However, unlike ordinary puppets, she still had a wisp of remnant soul controlling this body, so she cannot be said to be dead.
"Xia Mengchu, do you still remember Xia Mengqi?"
But Xia Mengchu shook her head, a look of confusion flashing in her eyes.
"Your Excellency, are you referring to Xia Mengqi, the leader of the Nine Cauldrons Division?" Mei Li's voice carried a hint of anger as she stood beside Xia Mengchu, tightly gripping Xia Mengchu's hand.
"What's wrong?" Xie Wanxun asked curiously.
“It was Xia Mengqi who hurt Xiao Chu the most. Every time she encountered Xia Mengqi on the battlefield, she would rush forward desperately, trying to kill Xiao Chu.” Mei Li said through gritted teeth, her demonic energy spreading out as if it would devour her whole.
"Auntie, don't be angry," Xia Mengchu said worriedly.
"I understand." Xie Wanxun glanced at Xia Mengchu with an ambiguous expression, then lowered her head to think.
Why would Xia Mengqi target her sister? She was so eager to find Xia Mengchu before, how could things have changed so much after all these years?
"We demons and humans are still fighting, and I hope we can end the war as soon as possible. But, Meili, why did Helian Yu launch a war against the humans?" Xie Wanxun asked, puzzled.
Meili hesitated for a moment, then sighed softly and said, "Your Majesty, you are unaware that the Demon Realm is now in ruins."
"How to say?"
"Your Majesty, do you still remember four years ago when the Sea of Chaos overflowed? In that catastrophe, the Demon Realm was actually the most severely damaged place. Almost 80% of the area collapsed and was polluted by the power of chaos. In addition, the demonic energy has gradually decreased over the years. If we don't take over the human territory, we demons are afraid we will be wiped out." Mei Li's words were filled with deep helplessness and sorrow. After speaking, she sighed softly, a sigh that seemed to carry countless worries.
"So, what's your suggestion?" Xie Wanxun raised an eyebrow and looked calmly at the three people in front of her.
"For the survival of the Demon Clan, we have no choice but to fight." Mei Li met Xie Wanxun's gaze and said without fear.
"I'll listen to my aunt." Xia Mengchu gripped Meili's sleeve tightly.
"War," Chi Sha replied curtly.
"What if I don't allow it?" Xie Wanxun chuckled lightly, but her eyes were full of coldness.
There was silence.
"Boring," Xie Wanxun muttered.
"boom!"
Suddenly, the ground began to crack, and magma gushed out.
The two sharp blades sliced through the air, making a tearing sound.
A sweet fragrance filled the air around Xie Wanxun.
"At least it's not so boring anymore."
……
"Are you telling the truth?" Xie Wanning felt ice-cold all over, her heart almost stopped, and she couldn't speak.
“Master, how could I lie to you?” Guichen Sword’s voice was firm. It stepped forward to support Xie Wanning, who was about to fall, and continued, “When I came out of the Chaos Sea, I did not see Qin Muyang. I searched for a long time in the Chaos Sea, but I did not find Qin Muyang’s figure.”
"Qin Muyang is probably dead." Guichenjian's voice was filled with reluctance, but he still spoke.
"That can't be." Xie Wanning took a few steps back and slumped into a chair.
Qin Muyang is dead, and her sister has fallen into demonic possession. What should she do?
The light in Xie Wanning's eyes dimmed, with Guichen Sword and Luoze Sword by her side.
"Master, Qin Muyang might still be alive."
"Master, you must look forward."
However, Xie Wanning couldn't hear anything; she just stared ahead, her heart trembling uncontrollably.
The door opened suddenly.
"Sister Wan Ning, here is a letter from the Demon Realm."
Tian Ruochun's voice brought Xie Wanning back to her senses. She walked towards Tian Ruochun and picked up the letter that the demon bird had delivered.
Xie Wanning looked at the letter and saw three words written in large letters: "Challenge Letter".
She frowned and tore open the envelope. The letter contained her familiar, elegant handwriting, but the content was unusually cold.
"I am Wanxun, the supreme ruler of the Demon Realm, and I have come to challenge you humans. If you dare to send your strongest warriors to fight, then come to the Demon Palace and settle the score. If you can defeat me, I will stop the war and watch how I turn you all to ashes!"
Tian Ruochun looked at the contents of the letter and then looked at Xie Wanning with concern.
"Sister Wan Ning, what should we do? Wan Xun has already fallen to demonic possession and has probably forgotten everything from the past. This battle seems unavoidable. But, given Wan Xun's current strength, how can we defeat her?" Tian Ruochun asked cautiously, afraid that Xie Wan Ning wouldn't be able to accept the reality.
Xie Wanning looked at the letter, her lips slightly parted, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself. The words lingered on her tongue, finally turning into a soft sigh that dissipated into the air, leaving behind endless hesitation.
"Let me go. I will do my best to awaken my sister's memory. If I cannot, I will make my own decision." Xie Wanning grabbed the letter, a resolute light flashing in her eyes.
"Wan Ning, you need to be careful." Tian Ruochun gripped Xie Wan Ning's hand tightly, a strong sense of unease welling up inside her.
"it is good."
Xie Wanning turned and left, riding her sword away from Qingyun Sect.
On the way to the Demon Palace, Xie Wanning found that there were no demon soldiers or demon generals blocking her way.
It wasn't until they arrived at the Demon Palace that they encountered a Demon General.
Mei Li looked at Xie Wan Ning, a hint of shock flashing in her eyes. Why did this Qingyun Sect leader look exactly like the Demon Lord? If it weren't for the spiritual power she possessed, Mei Li would have mistaken her for someone else.
"Thank you, Sect Leader. His Excellency is waiting for you at the Forgotten River Cliff."
Xie Wanning remained silent and quickly flew to Wangchuan Cliff on her sword.
Xie Wanxun stood beside the Wangchuan Cliff, her tone mocking: "Imposter, you came alone? You've got guts."
