Chapter 1400: Against the Emotionless Sword

Previously, Xiang Shaoyun would not accept a woman so easily. After comprehending the dao of devils, he had also understood what true heart was. The so-called true heart was one's nature. Since he proclaimed himself as an overlord, he had to act accordingly. He had to be domineering, and he had to be dominant. He might not bully the weak, but he would seriously complete what he had set his mind on.

Now that he was known as the devil, he no longer cared about his reputation. Only by continuing to work hard would he be able to earn a place for himself in the dominion. Since Hu Meihui had given him her body and made her intention to follow him known, as a man, he had to take responsibility.

Hu Detian had not expected Xiang Shaoyun to be so direct. Not only had this young man introduced himself, but the young man had even addressed him as father-in-law. He was slightly unhappy as he hadn't even agreed to have Xiang Shaoyun as his son-in-law.

"I remember that there's a human youth named Xiang Shaoyun. He is apparently a devil and was killed by a God at the Heavenly Snow Mountain. What is your relationship with that human youth?" asked Hu Detian.

"I'm the same Xiang Shaoyun, but I'm not dead," replied Xiang Shaoyun indifferently.

The demonic foxes had frequent contact with humans. It wasn't surprising that they knew about him.

"So, are you admitting to being a devil?" asked Hu Detian.

Xiang Shaoyun replied, "If you think I'm a devil, I am. If you don't think so, I'm not."

"Audacious, you dare speak like that to our patriarch?" berated a fox elder.

Xiang Shaoyun smiled uncaringly and said nothing. He now maintained an open mind and could openly accept his identity. That was perhaps one of the effects of comprehending the dao of devils. His character had undergone considerable changes.

"If that is the case, leave. My daughter can't be with you," said Hu Detian coldly.

This young man was the human's public enemy. Although the demonic foxes weren't weak, they were still far weaker than the humans. Because of that, Hu Detian would not allow his daughter to follow Xiang Shaoyun.

"Father, he is the only man I will follow in this life!" said Hu Meihui firmly.

"You don't know how dangerous this world is. Return with me," said Hu Detian. He then said to an elder behind him, "Escort the princess back."

Next, a fox elder stepped forth and said, "Princess, please come with me."

His hand then shot toward Hu Meihui's shoulder, trying to take her back by force.

But before his hand could reach her, another hand grabbed his wrist. A voice rang out, "Nobody can force my woman to do something she doesn't want to."

The elder was then sent flying far away, a sight that astonished the demonic foxes. That elder was a Saint, yet the elder wasn't this young man's match?

"Are you going to be stubborn?" demanded Hu Detian as he raised his brows.

"Father-in-Law, Meihui is already my woman. It doesn't matter if you agree or not. If you want to use force, don't blame me for being disrespectful," replied Xiang Shaoyun unyieldingly.

He could feel that a few of the demonic foxes present were not weak, but he was confident he could put up a fight against them. Just as Hu Detian was about to say something, a figure rushed over and stabbed his sword at Xiang Shaoyun.

Space had seemingly ceased to exist before the sword, the sword instantly arriving behind Xiang Shaoyun. The demonic foxes couldn't even sense the sword coming, but Xiang Shaoyun was already alarmed by the sword. He knew who had arrived. He pushed Hu Meihui toward Hu Detian as a broken ruler appeared in his hand. With the ruler, he swung at the incoming sword.

Clank!

The collision created a massive shockwave that spread toward the surrounding demonic foxes. If they were struck by the shockwave, they would die for sure. As Hu Detian caught his daughter, a powerful force burst out of his body and protected his clansmen. He then hurriedly retreated.

The fox patriarch was not weak, but the newcomer gave off an extremely dangerous sensation. He thought inwardly, Did a human Great Saint arrive? The newcomer was no Great Saint, but he was as strong as a Great Saint. He was Lei Wuqing. With a sword in hand, he appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Hand over that sword, and I'll spare your life," said Lei Wuqing.

Although Xiang Shaoyun had blocked most of the power behind Lei Wuqing's attack with the ruler, he had failed to block all of it. Several new wounds opened on his body, creating a bloody scene that alarmed all the onlookers.

"I did not expect you to reach here so fast. Unfortunately, you're not qualified to take my sword from me," said Xiang Shaoyun with thick battle intent.

He did not want to harm the demonic foxes. At the same time, he also wanted to have a satisfying fight. Thus, he soared into the sky.

Lei Wuqing did not want to provoke the demonic foxes. Therefore, he followed Xiang Shaoyun into the sky. Once again, he swung his emotionless sword, unleashing a terrifying attack that shook the world.

Lei Wuqing was only a step away from being a Great Saint, but he was already strong enough to kill Great Saints. How could Xiang Shaoyun be a match for such an opponent without his blood-soaked robe?

Once again, the rune on his forehead started emanating powerful devilish energy. His second-stage Devil Saint cultivation erupted as he aimed to break through into the third stage immediately.

His recent breakthroughs had been too fast. He had just entered the second stage not long ago, yet he was already breaking through again. He was relying on the devil cores he had collected for his rapid breakthroughs. Similar to demonic beasts, devils only needed enough energy for a smooth breakthrough. Unlike humans, there wouldn't be any walls blocking them from the next stage, which was a great advantage the devils had over the humans.

While breaking through, Xiang Shaoyun swung his ruler repeatedly, smashing all the incoming sword rays to prevent himself from being killed with one hit. He had refrained from using the Yin Mother Sword because he did not want to exhaust his devilish energy. It wouldn't be too late to use the sword after he finished breaking through.

Lei Wuqing's attacks were extremely hard to defend against. Despite Xiang Shaoyun trying his best, numerous wounds were still left on his body and dyed his entire body red with blood.

With Xiang Shaoyun's current strength, he still couldn't face someone comparable to a Great Saint head on. It also seemed like things were about to change yet again, as he could sense that two stronger auras were heading in their direction.
