Liu Suruo originally did not intend to attack Lu Zhaoyao, as long as she did not interfere with Qin Zhiyan's matters, but Lu Zhaoyao refused to leave. Lu Zhaoyao found a way to send Qin Zhiyan away, then stayed behind to deal with Liu Suruo and Liu Wei. Liu Suruo used the Magic of Manipulation to control Liu Wei, making him set up the Devil Slayer Formation.
In an instant, the earth shook, the sun and moon lost their light, and the entire Jinzhou City was sealed off. Neither Li Chenlan and his companions, nor the ordinary citizens, could get out. Upon seeing the Devil Slayer Formation activated, Elder Chi immediately understood that the big picture was set.
He gloated, waiting to see how Li Chenlan and the others would die, and simultaneously began to fantasize about being a hero of the sect after Ming Xuan was resurrected. Li Chenlan heard this and was indifferent. He coldly stated that for Ming Xuan to be resurrected, he would need to agree to it himself. Lu Zhaoyao saw the Devil Slayer Formation activate and instantly panicked, recalling the scene where she caused a ruckus at Ming Xuan's wedding.
Back then, Lu Zhaoyao, with a mindset of avenging every wrong, challenged Ming Xuan alone, and at the cost of most of her power, successfully eliminated him. Because Ming Xuan had cultivated to become a Gold Deity, immortal and indestructible, Lu Zhaoyao, even with all her might, could only seal him away. However, this outcome was already very good for Lu Zhaoyao; Ming Xuan could no longer awaken.
Unexpectedly, after many years, Liu Suruo came up with the idea of resurrecting Ming Xuan using the blood of the Qin family. Lu Zhaoyao and Li Chenlan shared the same attitude; neither of them wanted to resurrect Ming Xuan. However, Lu Zhaoyao was motivated by hatred, while Li Chenlan was motivated by Lu Zhaoyao. Liu Suruo dueled with Lu Zhaoyao. Lu Zhaoyao's expression reminded Liu Suruo of the past when Ming Xuan fell before her eyes, filling her with anger.
Qin Zhiyan was fleeing in the Appraisal Heart Sect and finally found Liu Cangling. She originally wanted the two of them to leave this troublesome place together, but unexpectedly, Liu Cangling attacked her. It turned out that Liu Cangling had also been subjected to Liu Suruo's Magic of Manipulation, all for the purpose of obtaining Qin Zhiyan's blood. Lu Zhaoyao and Qin Zhiyan shared a common fate; if one prospered, both prospered, if one was harmed, both were harmed.
With Qin Zhiyan injured, Lu Zhaoyao was not much better off. Therefore, after Liu Cangling attacked Qin Zhiyan, Lu Zhaoyao immediately realized that something had happened to Qin Zhiyan and instantly became anxious. Jiang Wu had originally come to Jinzhou City to find Lu Zhaoyao. Seeing the common people on the street discussing the Devil Slayer Formation, he became very curious.
Jiang Wu stopped a passing citizen and learned from them that Lu Zhaoyao had once led the Wanlu Sect to invade Jinzhou. After her retreat, hundreds of sword-forging families in Jinzhou united and, imitating the ancient Ten Thousand Sword Formation, forged the Devil Slayer Formation. The Devil Slayer Formation condensed the efforts of hundreds of families throughout Jinzhou City.
Once activated, upon sensing demonic energy, it would unleash ten thousand swords simultaneously, leaving no place for evil beings in the city to hide. Jiang Wu heard about the Devil Slayer Formation and was very interested, not planning to interfere. However, the citizens began discussing the ambiguous relationship between Qin Zhiyan and Li Chenlan, and even speculated that the Devil Slayer Formation was set up by the Appraisal Heart Sect to eliminate Li Chenlan.
Upon hearing that this matter was related to Lu Zhaoyao, Jiang Wu instantly changed his mind and even killed several citizens who were discussing it, declaring that Lu Zhaoyao belonged to him. Just as Jiang Wu was furious, Qin Qianxian suddenly appeared. Both were shocked to see each other. Liu Cangling was controlled by Liu Suruo and nearly strangled Qin Zhiyan. Fortunately, at that moment, Qin Zhiyan's tears allowed Liu Cangling to briefly regain consciousness.
He used his remaining rationality to suppress the Magic of Manipulation and urged Qin Zhiyan to escape quickly. Qin Zhiyan originally did not want to leave, but she knew that staying would be futile, so she could only flee. Jiang Wu and Qin Qianxian engaged in a fierce battle. The two fought intensely beneath the Devil Slayer Formation, which glowed like fireworks above Jinzhou City.
As Jiang Wu fought, he told Qin Qianxian that the resentment within Jinzhou City was just enough for him to have a good meal. Liu Suruo found Lu Zhaoyao very displeasing, blaming her for ruining her plans, and attacked with even greater ferocity. Lu Zhaoyao was surrounded by sword formations, but her martial arts had not recovered. Although she barely resisted, she was still severely wounded. At this moment, Li Chenlan sensed that Lu Zhaoyao was injured.
He quickly dealt with the matters at hand, then rushed to save Lu Zhaoyao. Seeing Li Chenlan's outstretched hand, Lu Zhaoyao for the first time felt that she was a woman and also needed someone to lean on. Liu Suruo intended to use this opportunity to eliminate Li Chenlan, otherwise, if he escaped, she would never have another chance.
So she gave the order to unleash the Devil Slayer Formation's power to its maximum, ensuring that all cultivators of the demonic path would enter but never leave. The Devil Slayer Formation charged ferociously. Li Chenlan expended much of his power and barely managed to withstand the assault, but he hadn't expected the Devil Slayer Formation to have a second move.
Lu Zhaoyao realized that if this continued, no one would survive; only by breaking the Devil Slayer Formation could they live. Lu Zhaoyao and Li Chenlan discussed, and both decided to use all their might to break the Devil Slayer Formation. At this time, the Appraisal Heart Sect disciples were also fighting with all their might, making a desperate resistance.
Li Chenlan and Lu Zhaoyao relied on the Liuhe Sword to open a rift in the sky, but they still couldn't break the formation. Fortunately, at this moment, Jiang Wu lent a hand, and the Devil Slayer Formation was finally broken. Qin Qianxian watched everything before him. Because he could not bear to see Li Chenlan die innocently, he did not stop Jiang Wu's actions.
Liu Wei and others suffered backlash because the Devil Slayer Formation was broken, and their cultivation was completely crippled. At this time, Ming Xuan, the central figure of the Devil Slayer Formation, was still lying intact in the ice coffin. Although Jiang Wu escaped Jinzhou City, he was also severely wounded. But having seen Qin Qianxian, Jiang Wu finally learned his true identity and only then understood the meaning of being Qin Qianxian's momentary lapse.
Back then, Qin Qianxian was brought back to the Wanlu Sect by Lu Zhaoyao and stayed for a night. He indeed developed a devil within, as rumored, and Jiang Wu was Qin Qianxian's devil within. To appease his devil within, Qin Qianxian sealed Lu Zhaoyao's body in ice on Susu Mountain and meditated on scriptures all day, only then separating Jiang Wu from his own body. Jiang Wu coughed up blood. He told his subordinates that his greatest enemy was not Li Chenlan, but rather Qin Qianxian.
