Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor

Chapter 5086: Whose Death Anniversary

Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Surveying the chaotic battlefield, Bai Xiao rexclaimed, "How could the Heavenly Pill Tower

be wrecked to such an extent?! Where are the others? Why are only a few of you left here?"

Gray Wolf caught his breath, cold sweat dripping from his forehead. "They’ve been plotting this for a long time. They split into two groups. Besides the Heavenly Pill Tower

here, the Eastern Sea Spirit Domain was also attacked. So, aside from us few holding the fort here, everyone else rushed over there."

"Eastern Sea Spirit Domain?" Bai Xiao gasped. "Do they intend to target Hell’s Lord? Where do they get the nerve?"

"My lady has been gone for years, leaving only us to guard this place. Naturally, they wouldn’t accept this situation forever. Moreover, it seems there are other matters at play. There’s a mastermind behind this. Be careful!" As Gray Wolf spoke, he let out a low cry, grabbing Bai Xiao and pulling him back while simultaneously swinging the sword in his hand toward the front.

"Ah!"

A cultivator preparing for a sneak attack screamed and collapsed. Gray Wolf staggered back several steps.

Bai Xiao supported him, watching the chaotic scene unfold. "Let me get you to safety first. Apply some hemostatic medicine to your wound."

Just as he was about to step back, he saw Qi Kang locked in combat with a Sovereign mid-air ahead. Not far away, another Sovereign seized the opportunity to strike from behind. Startled, he shouted, "Qi Kang, watch your back!"

Yet despite his warning, Qi Kang was now ensnared by a golden silk net cast by the front monarch. As he struggled, the net tightened further, leaving him utterly defenseless against the fatal strike approaching from behind.

"Stay here! I’ll help him!" Bai Xiao, seeing this, disregarded his own inferiority against monarch-level power and charged toward Qi Kang with a burst of energy.

"You old bastard, you actually have such a treasure!" Gray Wolf cursed, gripping his sword and charging forward with all his might, completely disregarding the broken sword still lodged in his own body.

"Get out of the way!"

Unable to block the monarch’s strike, Bai Xiao saw the blade descending toward Qi Kang. He lunged forward, colliding with Qi Kang and sending both tumbling through the air. They landed squarely on the back of a fierce beast below, only to be shaken off and rolled toward the ruins of the Heavenly Pill Tower’s walls.

"Seeking death!" The monarch’s face darkened as his sword sliced through empty air. His eyes blazed with icy killing intent, sweeping over Qi Kang and Bai Xiao.

"Do you think you’ll survive today? Mark my words—next year on this day will be your death anniversary!"

As he spoke, the spirit energy within his blade coalesced once more. A powerful sword qi erupted from the blade’s edge. With a swift raise of his hand, the sword shot forward, pointing directly at the two figures huddled in the corner of the ruins.

"Is that so?"

Suddenly, a cold, clear voice cut through the air, jarringly abrupt. Those who recognized it froze in shock.

Even the monarchs paused at the sound of that unexpected, icy female voice, a vague sense of foreboding rising within them.

They looked toward the source of the voice and saw a vortex appear in the air not far from them. A dazzling red figure emerged from the swirling vortex, and as she stepped out, the vortex behind her vanished instantly.

"Master!"

"My Lady!"

Recognizing that familiar figure, Qi Kang, Gray Wolf, and the others were overcome with excitement and joy after their initial shock—even disbelief.
