Chapter 239: Ye Xuan, You Must Die

“Damn it–!!!”

“Ye Xuan, this guy is really smug–!!!”

“He’s actually turned the Heavenly Emperor’s punishment into his own advantage?”

“Yeah, even if we kill him, what then? With the chains of fate, killing him in this life will only make him hate us more in the next, bringing us even more despair.”

“What do we do?!”

Ye Xuan’s statement that he couldn’t be killed left everyone who was about to attack him in a dilemma. For ordinary people, even immortals, death meant death. At most, their souls might persist and have a chance at reincarnation.

But not Ye Xuan. It wasn’t just that others couldn’t kill him; he couldn’t even kill himself.

Over billions of years of reincarnation, Ye Xuan had transformed into a great demon due to endless torment. Not even Ye Xuan himself could kill himself.

What could they do? Initially, the chains of fate were a punishment for the young and pure Ye Xuan. But after billions of years, Ye Xuan had become an immortal demon, and these chains of fate had turned into an unprecedentedly strong advantage for him.

No one could kill Ye Xuan. No matter who harmed him, he might resurrect a few years later, even more dark and evil than before.

This meant that even if everyone killed Ye Xuan now, it wouldn’t matter. Killing him would only make him more terrifying in the next life.

Realizing this, all the immortals present despaired. They had traveled back to this era to kill Ye Xuan before he became too powerful. But now, they understood that Ye Xuan was unkillable–!!!

They had attempted to kill someone who couldn’t die...

It was ridiculous. Ye Xuan’s single statement plunged all the would-be attackers into confusion. Even the Dragon Princess temporarily lowered her dragon spear.

“Are we really just going to let Ye Xuan go?”

“At the very least, we need to imprison this demon–!”

“Yes, we can’t let him wreak havoc on the world–!”

“It’s useless. With Ye Xuan’s cultivation, no one can handle him if he wants to die.”

The immortals discussed among themselves, eyes filled with despair.

“My opportunity has come–!” Seeing the future immortals fall into confusion, Mo Qingshang smiled and said, “Everyone, don’t worry. Once I obtain the Divine Emperor Sword, Ye Xuan will be dead for sure.”

“Don’t forget, the Divine Emperor Sword is no ordinary weapon, but a divine artifact bestowed by the Supreme Heavenly Emperor.”

His words immediately brightened the eyes of many cultivators. Indeed, although Ye Xuan had the Supreme Heavenly Emperor’s punishment and the chains of fate, making him unkillable, the Divine Emperor Sword was also no ordinary item.

It was a divine weapon given by the Supreme Heavenly Emperor to the mortal emperor to pacify the world. Using the divine sword bestowed by the Supreme Heavenly Emperor, they could surely kill Ye Xuan for good.

“All you need to do now is restrain Ye Xuan,” Mo Qingshang told the immortals. “Don’t let him continue his evil deeds–!”

“Hahaha–! As expected of the Divine Emperor Sword Master, you’re right–!”

Many cultivators looked at Mo Qingshang with approval. Feeling their gazes, Mo Qingshang was naturally very pleased.

He raised an eyebrow at Ye Xuan and said, “Ye Xuan, surrender now. You have nowhere to run–!!! You should understand, even if we can’t kill you now, we have ways to find you when you reincarnate.”

“Everyone knows your evil deeds now. If you reincarnate now, you won’t escape–!!!”

“Is this the Divine Emperor Sword Master? He’s so composed.”

“Indeed. Without him, these immortals might have been intimidated by Ye Xuan’s immortality and wouldn’t dare to do anything.”

“Now it’s good. Ye Xuan’s greatest advantage is gone.”

“The Divine Emperor Sword Master truly deserves to be the Heaven’s ordained ruler.”

“Ye Xuan, what do you say?”

At this moment, the Dragon Princess felt a wave of irritation. This was the moment she had most hoped for, yet thinking of Ye Xuan’s impending death made her feel sorrow.

Billions of years ago, Ye Xuan had asked Zhugu to seal her memories, waiting for a future opportunity to restore them and reunite. But now, it seemed Ye Xuan wouldn’t have that chance.

“What else can I say?” Ye Xuan laughed, “Facing such a situation, even if I had the Demon Emperor Sword, I would still be doomed. What else can I do but surrender? However, even so… Shuang’er, I hope you’re the one to do it.”

“Dream on–!!!” Mo Qingshang interjected, “Who knows if you have some trick up your sleeve? Who can guarantee that one person alone can restrain you? Since you can’t escape, the righteous path must first thoroughly restrain you–!!!”

“Exactly.”

At this moment, everyone had seen Ye Xuan and the Dragon Princess affection, and although she was the strongest righteous cultivator, they couldn’t trust her alone to handle him. Who knew if she would show mercy? If Ye Xuan escaped, it would only bring endless trouble in the future.

“Hehe.” Seeing all the immortals determined to kill him, Ye Xuan smiled and said, “In that case, what are you waiting for? Come on.”

“Uh...”

Ye Xuan’s words made the cultivators hesitate. They looked at each other, puzzled by Ye Xuan’s intention. After all, Ye Xuan was a great demon.

His sudden non-resistance and waiting-for-death demeanor made the immortals cautious, worrying he might have some hidden trick.

“Hmph, others may fear you, but I do not–!!!” Seeing the hesitation, Prince Nan Ming, without hesitation, charged at Ye Xuan again.

He knew he might not be a match for Ye Xuan, but he wanted to show everyone that Ye Xuan had no hidden tricks. Only then could they ensure Ye Xuan’s death today.
