The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 2646 - 2621: Farewell, Mo Qing!

The Universe, Sun and Moon Divine Refining Formation is counted among the peerless formations of the East Continent Academy's Chen Family, possessing boundless might. It is said to be capable of refining any living being Under Heaven, even a demon king! Presently, forces from all directions have converged.

Ancestor Ding swiftly conducted an investigation and approached the white-haired woman, whispering, "Sect Leader, I've already dispatched someone to confirm we are surrounded!"

"I hadn't anticipated that the Great Witch Dynasty, the Jiang Clan, Sword Realm Warriors, and Soul-breaking Area Warriors would arrive so quickly!" Ancestor Ding stated with a grim countenance.

The white-haired woman offered a slight smile and remarked, "The Jianghai Region is so vast, and we've only been here for a few days. It's naturally impossible for the strong individuals from other battle zones to support them this rapidly!"

"Unless... they have been lying in wait here for a considerable time," the white-haired woman added with a smile.

Ancestor Ding exclaimed in surprise, "Sect Master, are you suggesting... the warriors of the Jianghai Region knew long ago that we would break out from the South Battle Zone, and thus prepared this ambush here?"

The white-haired woman turned her gaze to Bai Xiaoxiao, commenting, "This Empress is no simple character!"

"Emperor Xiao, your strategy has truly caught me off guard!" the white-haired woman declared with a smile towards Bai Xiaoxiao.

Bai Xiaoxiao responded, "In warfare, strategy and deception are paramount!"

"Initially, I lacked such profound confidence, but given your sheer arrogance, you naturally wouldn't have given the East Continent Academy much thought. Therefore, I deduced you would attack from the South Battle Zone!"

"It appears my prediction was accurate."

The white-haired woman chuckled, "I am in awe, truly in awe! Emperor Xiao, after just a single encounter, you perceived my arrogance. It seems I truly must amend this habit in the future!"

"However, even if Emperor Xiao has meticulously laid a trap, do you truly believe I will be defeated?"

"Even with countless warriors present, how many can withstand my potent poisons?" The white-haired woman raised her hand, conjuring a swarm of yellow wasps that blotted out the sky.

From the ground, corpse-eating ants emerged, their formidable pincers and tail stingers poised and ready for action.

Bai Xiaoxiao let out a laugh, "Originally, my confidence was not absolute, but now it is!"

"Demon Sect Master, I wager that you will undoubtedly suffer defeat today!"

Upon hearing this, a captivating smile graced the white-haired woman's lips, "Is that so? Then I am eager to witness precisely how you intend to vanquish me!"

"Annihilate them for me!" The white-haired woman commanded with a wave of her hand, and the yellow wasps along with the corpse-eating ants surged toward the Heavenly Destiny Array.

Meanwhile, Bai Xiaoxiao remained positioned behind the grand formation, her expression unfaltering.

As the sky-obscuring yellow wasps and corpse-eating ants advanced, a sudden mist of smoke descended from above. This caused the attacking swarms to let out agonizing cries before they swiftly retreated, making their way back to the white-haired woman's side.

Witnessing the mist appearing from Cloud Sky, the white-haired woman's smile vanished, replaced by a look of grave seriousness!

At this precise moment, a childlike voice echoed from above: "Yellow smoke bees are a poisonous species originating from the Evil Spirit Valley in the Southern Continent, believed to be extinct since the age of Epiphyllum. Their reproductive capacity is exceptionally high, and they favor dwelling in immense colonies!"

"Yellow smoke bees never venture from their nest with fewer than millions in number!"

"The stinger of a yellow smoke bee carries a virulent venom; a single drop can liquefy a warrior's flesh and blood into pus. Should tens of thousands of these bees attack in concert, even a powerful expert in the Wending Realm would be compelled to retreat!"

"Corpse-eating ants are venomous creatures found within the Ancient Battlefield, where countless deceased bodies provide sustenance for these ants. They possess razor-sharp teeth and fangs, bodies of bronze hue, and are capable of effortlessly piercing through supreme martial spiritual artifacts!"

"These two types of poisons are indeed rare marvels in this world, and witnessing them today, they truly live up to their extraordinary reputation!"

Accompanying this voice, a youthful figure, carrying a painting tube, descended from Cloud Sky. He entered the Nine Saints Barrier Formation and took his place beside Bai Xiaoxiao!

"Lin Bai, it has been quite some time!" the youth, still carrying the painting tube, approached with a gleeful grin, addressing Lin Bai.

Lin Bai responded in a state of bewilderment, "Mo Qing, what brings you here!"

Mo Qing chuckled, "Sister Bai Xiaoxiao mentioned that my assistance was needed here, so I came!"

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled warmly, "Thank you, Mo Qing, for journeying all this way from the Southern Continent!"

Mo Qing laughed heartily, "Being able to witness these legendary poisonous oddities, the yellow smoke bees and corpse-eating ants, makes this journey utterly worthwhile."

Mo Qing then cast his gaze upward towards the white-haired woman atop the White Snake, a flicker of astonishment evident in his eyes.

The white-haired woman's gaze also fell upon Mo Qing, her pupils chillingly cold.

With sincere respect, Mo Qing cupped his fists towards the white-haired woman, proclaiming, "Mo Qing of the Poison God Clan, greets elder sister!"

Upon hearing this, the white-haired woman scoffed with disdain, "Sister? I am old enough to be your ancestor, and you dare call me sister?"

"Hmph, the Poison God Clan grows increasingly audacious!"

"Such a disgraceful lineage, I shall see it destroyed sooner rather than later!"

The white-haired woman declared with an icy expression.

Mo Qing offered a gentle smile, "Sister Zhao Yue, as a third-generation disciple of the Poison God Clan, and you also being a third-generation disciple, we stand on the same generational tier. Is it not appropriate to address you as sister?"

A flicker of surprise crossed the white-haired woman's eyes as she observed Mo Qing, questioning, "You are a third-generation disciple?"

Mo Qing gave a slight nod.

The white-haired woman pondered for a moment, then conceded, "In that case, referring to me as sister is indeed correct!"

Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao exchanged astonished glances at Mo Qing's words.

Lin Bai inquired in disbelief, "Mo Qing, who exactly did you just address?"

Hearing Mo Qing's salutation, Gu Dao's face drained of color, and he hastily cried out, "Little brother, what did you call her? Did you say... Zhao Yue?"

Mo Qing smiled, explaining, "The yellow smoke bees and corpse-eating ants vanished during the Epiphyllum era. While perusing the ancient texts of the Poison God Clan, I discovered that the last individual to possess yellow smoke bees and corpse-eating ants was none other than Zhao Yue!"

"Following Zhao Yue's time, these creatures have been absent from the world!"

"Regrettably, by the time I encountered this ancient record, elder sister Zhao Yue had already been expelled from the clan due to a violation of its rules and was being pursued by warriors across the land!"

"At that juncture, I learned that elder sister Zhao Yue had met her demise in the East Continent. Consequently, I ventured to the East Continent, hoping to perhaps locate the yellow smoke bees and corpse-eating ants!"

"Though I did not find them, I did discover elder sister Zhao Yue's life-bound poisons!"

Mo Qing chuckled softly.

It was only at this moment that Lin Bai grasped the reason behind Mo Qing's presence in the East Continent – his quest for the yellow smoke bees and corpse-eating ants.

Lin Bai had also been curious as to why a disciple of the Poison God Clan would suddenly appear in the East Continent.

So, this was the purpose behind it.

"Zhao Yue... Zhao Yue... she is indeed Zhao Yue!" Gu Dao stammered in sheer terror, "The female demon from ten thousand years ago has returned, she has truly returned!"

"Zhao Yue!" The Great Witch Emperor's face turned ashen with fright.

Within the revered ancient texts of the Great Witch Dynasty, there were indeed accounts of the conflict from ten millennia past – a battle so devastating that the Jianghai Region was nearly annihilated, all attributed to Zhao Yue!
