Chapter 1615: Slaughter Them All!

The sudden twist stunned everyone on the woman-in-white's side. In the distance, a figure in red walked slowly into view. A woman, blood still on her face, carrying a massive sickle. She looked every bit a goddess of slaughter.

Nun Sickle.

The moment she appeared, Xi Zhong let out a huge sigh of relief. If this living nightmare hadn't shown up when she did, they might've had to swear loyalty to the Divine Gods in the afterlife instead.

Even the woman in white of the Divine Continent forces paused, her gaze sharpening as she turned toward the newcomer. Her eyes narrowed with rare seriousness.

But Nun Sickle ignored everyone. She walked straight toward Ye Guan. The crowd parted instinctively, no one daring to block her path.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Nun Sickle stopped in front of Ye Guan and muttered in her broken speech, "Mission... done... I'm... late..."

Ye Guan was curious. "What mission?"

She pulled out a storage ring and casually tossed it.

Thousands of blood-drenched heads flew out of the ring in a terrifying wave. At the very front was the severed head of Mu Rong, the Temple Master of the Central Gods Temple.

Gasps of horror swept through the crowd.

Nun Sickle licked the blood off her lips and whispered, "I... wiped out... the entire... Central Gods Temple..."

Ye Guan was at a loss for words.

She really slaughtered an entire temple?

Ye Guan was stunned. This delicate-looking girl... was absolutely ruthless.

And the onlookers were no less shaken. The Central Gods Temple wasn't just any temple; it was the strongest and most promising among them. And now? All its top cultivators had been erased from existence.

Nun Sickle turned slowly, her gaze sweeping across the gathered elites. Everyone she looked at broke into a cold sweat; spines went rigid, and hearts skipped beats.

A Divine Nun.

There were only three in all of the Divine Civilization. Each held terrifying strength and special status. They weren't people that could be crossed lightly.

Seeing one standing with Ye Guan made many question themselves.

Was he really just an imposter?

Their gazes turned to the woman in white. That Divine Edict, so devastating just moments ago, had no effect on Nun Sickle. As it neared her, it simply... faded away.

This only made everyone feel even more terrified of her.

Clearly, the Divine Edict did not recognize her as a blasphemer.

Nun Sickle raised her sickle and began walking slowly toward the woman in white. With each step, blood-red footprints marked the ground. The crowd parted again, terrified of getting caught in her storm.

The strongest had to handle the strongest. No one else dared try.

The woman in white narrowed her eyes but showed no fear. Then, without warning, Nun Sickle's body flickered and blood radiance flared.

The sickle cleaved silently through spacetime, splitting the void like fabric being torn apart. That tearing sound sliced through everyone's ears.

The woman in white remained calm, spreading her palm. In an instant, a radiant aura wrapped around her. Runes of gold swam in streams of light like tadpoles circling her body. Those runes carried a power so ancient it felt like they came from the dawn of time.

"Divine Laws Cloak!"

Someone in the crowd recognized it with a shout of disbelief.

It was Divine Arts, one of the legendary forces crafted by the Divine God and stored in the tome of Divine Edict. Every law within it possessed the power to destroy worlds. Even wielding one of these laws made her nearly unmatched, second only to the mythical Divine Ruler Seal.

Boom!

The sickle slammed into the stream of golden light. Energy erupted like twin volcanoes clashing. A shockwave blasted through the battlefield, forcing everyone back and instantly reducing the South Temple of Divinity to ash.

Xi Zhong and Gu Hao shielded Ye Guan from the force, holding the line.

Ye Guan stared forward, eyes narrowed. The two women remained locked in place, the sickle tearing into the divine light, but the divine light held fast, resisting destruction. The sickle could not destroy it entirely.

Suddenly, Nun Sickle pulled back, then swung her weapon in a horizontal arc.

A blood-red crescent slammed into the light.

Boom!

The woman in white was sent flying tens of thousands of meters.

Nun Sickle didn't pause; she soared into the air and hurled her sickle like a javelin.

Boom!

The impact drove cracks through the divine light. Though it held firm, it was weakening.

Nun Sickle recalled the sickle with a wave of her hand. It streaked back to her hand like a blood comet. Then, like a demon, she dashed forward again. With each slash, the cracks widened in the divine light.

The woman in white's face paled; she was being suppressed.

Xi Zhong and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. The stronger Nun Sickle was, the better it was for them, there was no questioning it.

In the distance, the battlefield raged on. Nun Sickle slammed her sickle down again and again, each strike landing hard on the stream of divine light surrounding the woman in white.

Cracks were beginning to form on the stream.

Inside that divine light, the woman in white's face was starting to turn pale. The Divine Laws Cloak was draining her rapidly, and her strength was waning.

Elsewhere, hidden in the shadows, Jun You quietly observed the two women below.

A figure in black robes stood still beside her..

"She was trained by the Divinity," Jun You said with no expression. "I'll admit, she's got some bite."

Her gaze drifted toward Ye Guan, and she smiled faintly. "I'm getting impatient. I really want to snap his neck..."

***

Back on the field, Tian Ya and others grew increasingly desperate. The woman in white was being overwhelmed. Once she fell, who could stop Nun Sickle?

Everyone knew what was at stake. But no one wanted to be next; none of them could take on Nun Sickle.

Xi Zhong and Gu Hao exchanged glances. Though they were in the same realm as Nun Sickle, but her strength far outstripped theirs.

Crack.

A thin fracture split the divine light around the woman in white.

Tian Ya acted instantly. He scanned the Divine Realm experts and snapped, "If we don't act now, we all die later!"

He charged as six more Divine Realm powerhouses followed.

They had no choice. As Tian Ya said, once Nun Sickle dealt with the woman in white, they'd be next. Without Divine Law protection, how many of them could survive even a few strikes?

Xi Zhong and Gu Hao rushed to intercept two of them, but five still went for Nun Sickle.

She suddenly stopped, whirled around, and swept her sickle upward, sending a blood arc slicing toward them.

Boom!

All six combatants staggered back, reeling from the blow as the blood arc from the sickle exploded.

The woman in white finally caught her breath. She looked down and saw that her protective stream of light was riddled with fractures. Her eyes turned cold and vicious.

𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

She glanced at Nun Sickle, and then she suddenly turned toward Ye Guan.

Without hesitation, she shot forward like a beam of light.

Ye Guan saw it coming and didn't wait. His Qingxuan Sword flew from his hand, laced with bloodline power, dual sword intents, and time suppression.

As she neared, her speed slowed unnaturally but by the time she realized things were amiss. The blood red Qingxuan Sword arrived. She didn't flinch. The Divine Laws around her would block it.

Boom!

They both were blasted back, but the woman in white came to a stop first. Looking at her chest, a small hole appeared.

Ye Guan's sword had pierced the Divine Laws!

If she hadn't retreated in time, it would've gone right through her heart.

Impossible.

She stared at Ye Guan's sword. He, too, looked at his battered body. Without the Qingxuan Sword, he couldn't have survived the clash. Divine Realm experts were truly on a whole new level compared to him.

The woman in white raised her hand. Streams of divine light fired at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed. Sword light burst forth in a storm as he spread open his palm, activating his

three bloodlines. His sword intent became devastating as soon as they were activated.

The battlefield exploded with light and force as sword light clashed against divine light. Soon, Ye Guan's sword energy began to falter. He gritted his teeth, burned every last drop of bloodline and sword intent. Ignoring his own defense, he charged forward as a burst of sword light.

A cold glint of light passed through the woman's eyes. She didn't dodge. Instead, she transformed into pure light and rammed him back.

Boom!

They clashed like stars collapsing. Light and sword exploded together. Ye Guan's fleshly body shattered bit by bit until only his soul remained. Meanwhile, numerous sword wounds were also carved on the woman in white's figure.

Still, he raised his hand. The Qingxuan Sword returned to him. Taking in a deep breath, he stared ahead, unafraid.

The woman in white glanced down. Sword wounds riddled her, and they were so deep that her internal organs could be seen.

She looked up, murder in her eyes. "Kill him!"

Her Jin Guards, over a hundred top-tier elites, charged towards Ye Gua,n and a powerful wave of energy swept through the air.

Massacre!

She was done playing.

Others joined, mainly the Main Gods. They were unwilling to face Nun Sickle, but they were eager to claim merit by slaying Ye Guan.

He closed his eyes.

There appeared to be no way out.

Just then, something happened.

The woman in white's expression changed. She spun around, but it was too late.

A jade hand grabbed her throat. The next instant, her head was torn off her shoulders, and her blood pervaded the sky.

The owner of the jade hand sneered at the severed head.

"You? What a joke."

The battlefield fell into a deathly silence.
