The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 2588 - 2563: A Pack of Apostate Beasts!

Beyond the borders of Tiandou Region and Phoenix Song Area sprawls Mang Gu Jungle, uncontrolled by Phoenix Song Area or confined within Tiandou Region—a domain of total anarchy!

Previously, Mang Gu Jungle sheltered countless bandits thriving amid disasters, alongside savage beasts boasting immense might, deterring even warriors from Phoenix Song Area and Tiandou Region from entering.

Such a setup benefited both Phoenix Song Area and Tiandou Region mutually, with this natural barricade effectively blocking arrogant warriors from crossing.

Yet following Phoenix Song Area's downfall, numerous powerhouses fled via Mang Gu Jungle, massacring desperate fugitives and demonic beasts en route.

The formerly hazardous Mang Gu Jungle has transformed into a safe skyward route, stripped of all peril!

Lin Bai and his group's spirit boat hurtled across Mang Gu Jungle, spotting enormous spirit boats streaking by alongside warriors darting through the air.

These were once mighty figures from Phoenix Song Area, now fleeing as refugees.

No doubt, none foresaw that Phoenix Song Area—one of East Continent's Nine Great Domains—would crumble before the Demon Sect!

"So many warriors."

Hu Xiner stood next to Lin Bai, eyeing the nonstop torrent of refugees pouring from Phoenix Song Area at Mang Gu Jungle's distant end.

Lin Bai stayed silent.

Lan Yuxin stated, "Phoenix Song Area, one of the Nine Great Domains, covers vast expanses filled with countless warriors, and only the stronger ones or families and sects can escape!"

"Weaker warrior families or sects have no chance to flee at all; they can only remain in Phoenix Song Area waiting for death!"

Lin Bai nodded, replying, "Exactly, long-distance flight succeeds only for mighty families and sects—for the weak, it's a sure path to doom!"

"The perils met on the road far exceed what weaker families or sects could survive!"

"They can only linger in Phoenix Song Area awaiting death," Lin Bai declared coldly.

"Let’s go, into the Phoenix Song Area!"

Lin Bai commanded without expression.

Against the rush of escaping warriors, Lin Bai’s spirit boat pressed forward, astonishing many who wondered why Lin Bai and companions aimed for ruined Phoenix Song Area.

However, spotting the Lan Clan flag on the spirit boat, they promptly yielded passage to Lin Bai and his group!

As Lin Bai’s spirit boat neared crossing Mang Gu Jungle into Phoenix Song Area.

Ahead in the sky, a warrior wailed desperately: "The Demon Sect is here!"

Aboard the spirit boat, Lin Bai peered upward, witnessing the warrior cleaved in two by a razor sword right after his cry, the corpse tumbling into Mang Gu Jungle.

At the shout of "The Demon Sect is here," fleeing warriors paled in horror, accelerating their dash from Mang Gu Jungle.

"Hmph, trying to run?"

"Looking to die?"

"Get back here, all of you!"

Suddenly, a man's chilling laugh boomed across Mang Gu Jungle.

Lin Bai glanced up, beholding roughly a thousand black-robed warriors bursting from Phoenix Song Area, radiating dreadful aura surges.

Every one of these thousands was a Yin Saint Realm powerhouse!

Under their dark robes, hints of black armor peeked through.

A man with a scarred face commanded the thousand-strong force, glaring at the refugees with a sinister smirk.

"Kill them all for me!"

The scar-faced man swept his war sword, unleashing the thousands behind him into Mang Gu Jungle amid spraying blood and waves of agonized howls!

Multiple powerful families and sects countered instantly, clashing savagely with the Demon Sect warriors!

Losses struck both sides, though Demon Sect clearly dominated.

Swiftly, the defiant families and sects faced total annihilation, while Demon Sect sacrificed only several hundred.

"Kill them all, seize every storage bag!"

"Hmph, these escapees hauled their families, stuffing their storage bags with centuries of clan and sect wealth—immensely precious!"

The scar-faced man sneered coldly.

As he spoke, the scar-faced man strode to a white-haired elder appearing youthful, scoffing, "You must be Tianhua Mountain's Sect Leader Supreme; I've hunted you long enough!"

The elder lay blood-soaked on the ground.

Dozens of Tianhua Mountain disciples robed nearby bellowed, "Don’t harm the Sect Leader; face us if you dare!"

The scar-faced man scoffed, "Tianhua Mountain lacks prowess, but its disciples brim with misplaced loyalty!"

"Enough talk; no more words wasted. Word is Tianhua Mountain holds a Treasure Mine Mountain laden with Tianhua Divine Iron, securing your place in Phoenix Song Area!"

"I checked Tianhua Mountain myself—all Tianhua Divine Iron vanished; it must be yours!"

The scar-faced man cackled viciously.

The white-haired youthful-looking elder spewed blood, fixing a gaze of dismay on the scar-faced man before saying coldly, "Qin Cong, once a Military Marquis of Longteng Dynasty’s Tiger Scorpion Army, who knew you'd sink to Demon Sect lackey!"

"Can you face the Longteng Dynasty?"

The scar-faced man sneered, stomped the elder’s arm to shatter it, then roared with laughter, "What Longteng Dynasty! What Tiger Scorpion Army Military Marquis! Ancient history!"

"Now facing you is solely Demon Sect disciple Qin Cong!"

"Truth be told, joining Demon Sect stands as my life's finest choice!"

"Utter freedom! Ignore rules, disregard edicts! Covet an item, seize it! Desire a woman, claim her!"

"Hahaha, incomprehensible to you!"

Qin Cong sneered, "With Tianhua Divine Iron on you, excellent—after slaying you and taking it, I'll craft mighty arms for my brothers!"

"Prepare to die!"

Qin Cong bellowed in endless mirth, lifting his battle sword to hack at the elder’s skull.

The elder shut his eyes, embracing death.

The encircling dozens of Tianhua Mountain disciples shrieked in despair, "Sect Leader, Sect Leader..."

The instant Qin Cong’s sword descended.

A keen sword abruptly shot from the Cloud Sky, hurling Qin Cong back a hundred meters as his blood churned, forcing him to spew a gush of blood.

"Who dares meddle in Demon Sect affairs?" Qin Cong thundered toward the Cloud Sky.

Then, a spirit boat eased down from the Cloud Sky, its onboard man intoning coldly, "Demon Sect disciple? Hmph, with Demon Sect hounded sans refuge, do you still revel?"

"When Demon Sect disciples rank as despised rats across East Continent, do you still revel?"

"When you shame others’ kin and theirs shames yours, do you still revel?"

The spirit boat man uttered with frozen countenance.

"A herd of mutinous beasts!" He disdainfully eyed Qin Cong and the five hundred-backed warriors, gaze brimming with frosty contempt!
