--- Chapter 80 ---
At the Heavenly Sword Villa.
Cang Yue and Little Ghost waited for Hayate on the other side of the portal. It's been two days, but there is no trace of his or Lady Hong Guan's return in the last two hours.
A young man in blue approached Cang Yue with a blanket in his hand. "Princess Cang Yue, why don't we go to a warmer place." He said with a smile on his face.
"It's not good to stay in cold weather, you know."
He was a beautiful young man, adorning a striking blue robe with a v-cut neck. However, in contrast to his "Beautiful." appearance, an obscene smile is plastered on his face.
This guy doesn't even bother to hide it.
Cang Yue's expression became extremely cold when sensing this guy's presence. "I'm fine." She said indifferently.
"I'll excuse myself from your invitation, young master Ye Xinghan."
"Playing cold, I see." Ye Xinghan laughed amusingly. "Hehe, kept it that way because I don't dislike that kind of girl."
"I'll enjoy myself conquering you, Princess."
Yes, this person is the infamous perverted young master of the Sun Moon Divine Hall. Ye Xinghan is arrogant and greedy, wanting to obtain all the perfect women in the world due to his practicing a depraved dual cultivation art.
When Ling Kun's carrier bird arrived at the Sun Moon Divine Hall yesterday, Ye Xinghan immediately flew to the Heavenly Sword Villa.
Ye Xinghan, with a watery mouth, wanted to obtain Xia Qingyue, Cang Yue, and Xiao Bing'er.
That's until the portal to Heaven Basin Secret Realm exploded and caused an ominous creature to come out.
BOOM!
ROAR!
A purple bane beast bursts out of the portal, releasing dark energy that pressures the entire Heavenly Sword Villa into chaos.
It's a lion-like beast with terrifying goat legs and a menacing scorpion tail. Its entire body literally was covered with darkness.
Every high-ranking elder and cultivator in the area was alerted by this devil beast's appearances.
"Hmph, a little beast won't be able to scare-!" Ye Xinghan arrogantly raised his palm to attack, but a second later, his face got smashed by an enormous force.
BAM! SWOOSH!
A bloody body was flying across the air and dropped onto a watching tower near the first arena for the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament. That's like two kilometers away from the portal.
Ling Yuefeng arrived at the scene with a solemn look on his face and pulled his sword immediately. There are also several Heavenly Sword Villa's elders behind him.
"Heaven's Might Slash." He waved his sword, only to get slapped by the devil beast's tail.
BOOM!
Ling Yuefeng was pushed several hundred meters with a wide open mouth.
Cough!
"How can this be?" He coughed a mouthful of blood after receiving the blow.
The elders were panicked, facing the devil beast that was clearly above their league.
"Descending Flower." A calm voice echoed in the area.
BAM!
The Devil Beast received a powerful lightning strike from the sky and moved away a few millimeters.
A middle-aged man in a brown tunic with an ancient-looking sword floated in the sky. His face frowned when noticing his attack didn't even scratch the devil beast.
This guy is Xuanyuan Yufeng's father, Xuanyuan Jue, who was the ninth elder of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region.
When his daughter called him through Ling Kun's bird carrier, he immediately used the teleportation technique to go to the Heavenly Sword Villa.
Who would have thought a devil beast would appear under Xuanyuan Jue's nose?
"Father!" Xuanyuan Yufeng shouted from afar. "Take Princess Cang Yue and that little girl first."
"You can't let them get injured."
Xuanyuan Yue nodded and dived down to the ground, grabbing Cang Yue and Little Ghost away from the area.
The devil beast lunged at them, but Xuanyuan Jue used teleportation to run away from that place.
BAM! Crack!
A deep crack appeared where Cang Yue and Little Ghost were standing before, leaving everyone speechless.
Xuanyuan Jue watched the devil beast open its mouth and noticed chaos-like energy gathered into an enormous orb, condensing into a small black pearl.
His eyes widened, realizing what was about to happen.
"EVERYONE DODGE!!!"
The absolute terror in Xuanyuan Jue's voice woke everyone in the vicinity, but it was too late.
The devil beast swallowed the black pearl and caused white smoke to come out of its body. A blinding white light escaped through a series of sharp teeth.
ROAR! BOOOOOM!
A powerful blast escaped the devil beast's mouth, destroying everything on its path. Half of the mountain range vanished into thin air, leaving nothing but burning soil.
"The mountain range..."
Xuanyuan Jue gasped in disbelief because this beast was not something he could handle easily. He needed other elders. No, the entire Mighty Heavenly Sword region to help him.
The portal widened, and a black-haired young man in bad condition entered Xuanyuan Jue's sight. There are also three women on his side with solemn expressions.
Their clothes were ragged with some deep cuts all over their bodies.
"HAYATE!" Cang Yue panicked and shouted, "Run away!"
However, under every survivor's eyes, Hayate somehow walked to the devil beast and released an intense white light.
"Ssamsu Taekkyeon." His indifferent voice echoed in the ruined land.
"White Flame Dance."
Xuanyuan Jue blinked and saw the devil beast getting launched to the sky.
Hayate's black hair turned white, changing his entire atmosphere into angel-like. His kick was engulfed by white flame, burning steadily under the sun.
Even with rag-like clothes and bleeding all over his body, he kept attacking the devil beast with his martial art.
BAM! BAM! BAM!
Hayate coughed a mouthful of blood, but his kick also damaged the devil beast.
ROAR!
Another blast was charging inside the devil beast, but Hayate quickly kicked the monster's jaw, changing the direction to the sky.
A pillar of destruction rose to the sky, causing some people to skip their heartbeat. It is the same attack that obliterates half of the freaking mountain range.
"Don't just watch," Hayate said while gritting his teeth in pain.
"Evacuate the survivor out of this place."
Chu Yueli created an ice domain to cool off the area and tracked several people.
"I'll rescue some people." Xia Qingyue closed her eyes and smiled inside because everything was going according to plan.
Hong Guan waved her hand and tried to use her fire summons to pick survivors from the area. A group of fire foxes ran around the field.
Hayate focused on the devil beast again and maintained a grave expression. He can't let anyone notice this was nothing but an act.
~Flashback 3 hours ago~
"What should we do next?" Hayate questioned his companions.
They stared at each other for a moment until Luna raised her little hand.
"ME!" She shouted excitedly.
As the cutest prankster, Luna has already seen many future lines, but she wanted to pick the most amusing one without changing the result.
"Hehe, Let's start a drama~!" Luna declared with a grin.
The little Kaiju explained her brilliant idea to release the weakest Devil Beast at the Heavenly Sword Villa, leaving it to go rampant for a moment.
After that, Hayate would appear in "Fake." bad condition like he was in a war or something, fighting the devil beast seriously.
Since no one knows their sides of the stories, people would see Hayate as a hero. A staged one.
"Now, what a hero does is sacrificial for good." Luna stared at Hayate. "Master, can you let the Devil Beast bite you on the chest?"
"At that moment, your blood would kill the devil beast, but no one knows about it, so you'll act by stabbing your sword into the beast's eye."
"Claiming your victory."
"Aren't you worried about him?" Hong Guan frowned at the prankster.
Luna smiled and replied, "Me worried? No."
"Do you know?"
"Because my master is the strongest."
~Flashback End~
The Devil Beast roared in anger and pounced on Hayate.
BAM!
Even though the Devil Beast was the weakest in the abyss with the first stage of Divine Origin Realm, it's still a powerful ancient beast with enormous strength.
Still, it's a mindless beast with only the instinct to kill.
Hayate's cultivation increased without everyone knowing, reaching the first stage of the Divine Origin Realm with Evil God's first realm.
He seemed like an ordinary human with no cultivation, but every kick and punches he launched damaged the devil beast to the cellular level.
Bam!
Hayate's blood was poisonous because of the Miyabi Orochi he consumed when fighting Dullahan.
Its effect is not instantaneous like Absolute God Slaying Poison, but people could see the Devil Beast become slower with each moment.
Everyone finally has hope.
They watched Hayate fight against the devil beast, feeling deep in their hearts to cheer him.
Hero has to become an image to relieve others, giving them a sense of protection.
"But every hero also has some downfall," Luna commented while sitting on a rock. Her legs are swaying around playfully.
At this moment, everyone is expecting Hayate to win. Yet, The Devil Beast opened its jaw and bit Hayate directly on the chest.
Half of his body was inside the beast's mouth.
"NOOOOOOO!!!!"
"HAYATE!!!"
"DON'T DIE!!!"
She stared at Hayate and added, "Now, master, be their hero."
"ARRGGHHH, DIE, MONSTER!" Hayate roared while bringing the silver sword, stabbing the devil beast's eye and destroying the brain.
He breathed heavily with holes all over his chest.
Hayate slowly released himself out of the jaw and stood above the devil beast, raising his silver sword.
"Everything is over now..." He forced a smile.
Like a violent breeze, the survivors cried and began to approach Hayate.
They have smiles and thankful looks on their faces.
Hayate's body trembled a little, and he fell to the ground.
"Hayate!" They worriedly yelled.
Luna lifted her body from the rock and cleaned some dust off her clothes.
"Now, let's meet that grandpa inside the seal~!" She said while humming something.
