Chapter 164 Goddess? Demoness!

Chapter 164 Goddess? Demoness!

The chaotic bottom of Soul-Shattering Valley seemed to have been paused by an invisible hand.

In the center of that mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, Tang Li slowly straightened up.

She still held the unconscious Pei Yunjing tightly with one hand, letting his head rest against her soft belly, preventing him from getting covered in the ice and mud on the ground.

Her other hand hung limply at her side, blood still dripping from her fingertips.

The cold wind tousled her hair, but it couldn't dispel the chilling aura emanating from her that seemed to change the very fabric of the world.

Her once magnificent bright red palace dress was now tattered and soaked in blood, turning into a dark, murky red.

Her face was crisscrossed with blood, and the wound on her left cheek, slashed by Pei Yunjing's sword energy, added a breathtakingly alluring and tragic beauty to her originally exquisite face.

Beautiful as a demon, cold as a god.

At her feet lay hundreds of giant snow wolves, as loyal as dogs.

Above her head, golden eagles and vultures circled, their wings obscuring the sky.

Behind her stood several enraged black bears, as tall as iron towers.

These ferocious and bloodthirsty beasts, who usually fought independently, now surrounded her like stars around the moon, forming an absolutely inviolable "divine domain."

Tangli slowly raised her head.

Those clear, cold eyes pierced through the swirling snowflakes and through the terrified eyes, looking directly at the Northern Rong King—Tuoba Xiao—who was still slumped on the high rock.

Then, Tang Li slowly raised her blood-stained right hand.

A slender index finger extended, pointing remotely through the void towards Tuoba Xiao's brow.

Just this one simple action.

"Buzz—"

The wolves, which had been growling, suddenly fell silent.

The flock of eagles, which had been screeching, instantly folded their wings.

The black bear, which had been roaring, instantly lay down on the ground.

All beasts fell silent. In the vast valley, thousands upon thousands of wild animals could not even be heard breathing.

They were like well-trained royal guards, holding their breath and not daring to even wag their tails, quietly awaiting the king's final command.

This silence is a thousand times more terrifying than a raging roar, because it represents absolute domination.

"Clang."

The crisp sound of a weapon hitting the ground broke the suffocating silence.

He was the closest Northern Rong soldier.

He looked at the woman in red sitting in the center of the beast horde, at the sight of all the beasts submitting, and his legs went weak. He could no longer hold the scimitar in his hand, and it fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

The sounds of weapons hitting the ground rose and fell in waves, creating a continuous chorus.

Those Northern Rong warriors, who were ruthless killers and worshipped the wolf totem, were now pale-faced and trembling like leaves.

In their belief, there is only one explanation for someone who can command all beasts and make wolves bow down.

That was an envoy sent down from the Eternal Heaven. That was a goddess possessing divine power!

"Goddess...she is a goddess..."

An elderly Northern Rong soldier knelt down with a thud, frantically kowtowing to Tang Li while muttering incantations:

"Eternal Heaven, please forgive us! We have angered the Goddess! This is divine punishment! It is divine punishment!"

Fear, like a plague, swept through the entire remnant army of the Northern Rong in an instant.

They can fight against people, and they can fight against armies.

But they dared not fight against the gods!

"Witch! That's a witch! Get up! Kill her!"

From his vantage point, Tuoba Xiao watched the army's morale crumble in an instant, his eyes bloodshot, and he roared hysterically.

He wanted to get back up and reorganize the attack.

However, when he met Tang Li's emotionless eyes, a chill seeped from his very bones and instantly froze his entire body.

He killed people his whole life. He called himself a wolf on the grasslands, an invincible tyrant.

But at this moment, he was facing a woman who seemed weak but actually controlled all the creatures of the snow-capped mountain.

"No...it's impossible..."

Tuoba Xiao trembled as he retreated until his back hit the cold rock, leaving him nowhere to go.

He gazed at the red-clad figure in the wind and snow, and only one desperate thought remained in his mind:

This is... Pei Yunjing's scabbard?

This is clearly a world-destroying demon sword that is ten thousand times more terrifying and sharper than Pei Yunjing's!
