Meng Lan smiled wildly, completely unconcerned about her current predicament.
"Heh..."
Tang Xiao Min also smiled.
"So, you keep saying I'm not worthy, and it's your turn to take my place, is that it?"
Young Master Zhou's objective was crystal clear, anyone with a bit of sense could guess it.
"Isn't that obvious!" Young Master Zhou roared.
"Back then, for your own selfish desires, you cast me into the abyss, causing me to be burned by lava and disfigured. I've been trapped here for years."
"Fortunately, heaven has eyes. You were severely injured by the heavenly tribulation, and I finally managed to escape the abyss when the seal loosened. All of this was fate."
"Now you are so weak, you can no longer bear the heavy responsibility. If you have any self-awareness, you should step down yourself."
...
Speechless, utterly speechless.
Setting aside the fact that Tang Xiao Min had no memory of the Supreme Leader at all, she now had a new identity and quite liked the person she was.
More importantly, compared to being the Supreme Leader, she still wanted to return to the mortal world, go to college, and live with the person she loved.
"I'm sorry, I have no intention of becoming the Supreme Leader, and I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you."
"Hmph, stop pretending to be a saint here. If you don't want to be the Supreme Leader, then why are you fighting?"
This...
Tang Xiao Min couldn't be bothered to explain; even if she did, it wouldn't matter.
She turned to look at Yan Jue beside her. He was the one who had the intention.
She wasn't going to take the blame for this.
"Here, she wants to fight you."
Yan Jue's lips curved into a wicked grin he'd never shown before.
"Hmph... Too wonderful, she actually has the audacity to say such things to my face."
Since their positions were clear, there was no reason to wait.
"Min Min, step back."
"Mhm."
Tang Xiao Min obediently stepped back, not wanting to be involved in what was about to happen.
Halfway there, she suddenly remembered Wang Sheng, who was prostrate on the bridge, that desperately ill fool.
She admired him quite a bit, so she kindly dragged Wang Sheng along with her.
Just a few steps away, a chaotic fierce battle erupted behind them.
Turning back, she saw the undead warriors launching wave after wave of attacks at Young Master Zhou.
Young Master Zhou, relying on her own strength, continuously resisted, like a little lamb fallen into a wolf pack, the target of everyone's attack.
More than ten minutes passed, and Young Master Zhou still hadn't fallen. Moreover, she grew more courageous with each fight, shattering undead warriors under her hands one after another.
The flying dust even blurred her vision.
She had to admit, she was truly strong.
Yan Jue frowned and shouted, "Stop!"
Instantly, the undead warriors retreated, warily watching Young Master Zhou in the center.
Seeing this, Young Master Zhou laughed wildly.
"Hahahaha... With these rabble, you dare try to deal with me? You're just seeking your own demise."
Young Master Zhou was arrogant, and she indeed had the capital for it.
Even Tang Xiao Min sensed that she might not be her opponent. Otherwise, she wouldn't have fallen for her illusion.
Suddenly, Young Master Zhou's sword pointed towards Tang Xiao Min.
"Hou Tu, come out and fight!"
Tang Xiao Min looked left and right. "Are you still calling me?"
"Hmph, are you so cowardly now that you don't even dare to admit your own name!"
"It doesn't matter if you admit it or not, because the outcome will be the same. Today, it's either you die or I die!"
Saying this, Young Master Zhou suddenly flew towards Tang Xiao Min, her sword pointed at Tang Xiao Min.
Seeing this, Tang Xiao Min smiled slightly and didn't dodge.
Just as she was about to be injured, Yan Jue suddenly appeared, his red long sword easily deflecting Young Master Zhou away.
"You think you can touch her?" Yan Jue said coldly.
Young Master Zhou, who had fallen back to the ground, looked at Yan Jue with a grave expression, and a sharp pain shot up her sword-wielding hand.
This was her first time fighting Yan Jue, and his strength far exceeded her imagination.
"It was you who threw her into reincarnation back then, which allowed her to escape disaster."
If she hadn't been thrown into reincarnation, Hou Tu would have long since turned to dust and disappeared forever, and she would have had no obstacles.
Unfortunately, man proposes, heaven disposes. She hadn't expected Yan Jue's appearance.
Yan Jue scoffed, "You are not worthy of knowing matters between her and me."
"I don't care what you are. Since you've provoked me, you will pay the price you deserve."
As soon as the words fell, Yan Jue launched a fierce offensive, giving Young Master Zhou no chance to retort.
The thing he hated most in his life was sneak attacks, and this time it was directed at him. He absolutely could not tolerate this.
Yan Jue's attacks were swift and merciless.
At first, Young Master Zhou could still resist a little, but gradually she found it harder and harder to cope.
Finally, after being struck on the back with a sword, she was heavily slammed to the ground.
Her sword flew out of her hand, yet she still refused to believe this reality.
"Impossible! This is impossible! How could I possibly lose to a mere rebel!"
"This is impossible! In this underworld, no one is my match except Hou Tu!"
"Impossible!!!"
...
As the saying goes, there is always someone better.
When she thought herself invincible, it was precisely her downfall that was predetermined.
Yan Jue sneered, "Nothing is impossible. Whether you believe it or not, your end is coming soon."
As for Yan Jue, he knew nothing of pity or cherishing the fair sex. The only one he truly cherished was Tang Xiao Min.
As for anyone else, they were enemies.
Yan Jue dragged his long sword, approaching Young Master Zhou step by step.
At this moment, an unprecedented fear swept over Young Master Zhou. She looked at Yan Jue in terror and said unwillingly, "Even the Supreme Leader dared not kill me, and you dare!"
...
What is called overstepping one's bounds, this is it.
The Supreme Leader didn't crush her directly, which led her to believe she was special, that no one dared to touch her.
Yan Jue was completely speechless. Just as he was organizing his words to make Young Master Zhou face reality, his long sword was suddenly snatched away.
Tang Xiao Min picked up the red long sword and quickly strode to the fallen Young Master Zhou. Without a word, she unleashed several sword strikes.
The sound of cracking echoed, and Young Master Zhou's body was instantly covered in dense cracks, about to shatter.
Before turning into dust, Young Master Zhou's eyes were wide with disbelief.
"Why?"
"Hou Tu dared not shatter me, why did you dare to strike?"
Hearing this, Tang Xiao Min smiled.
"Want to know?"
Young Master Zhou's eyes were filled with questions and confusion.
Tang Xiao Min found this scene truly amusing.
She spared her once, but she didn't learn her lesson and actually thought no one dared to touch her.
She didn't know where this strange confidence of hers came from.
Tang Xiao Min's hand swept across the long sword, making a wiping motion.
"Because I'm not Hou Tu, nor am I the Supreme Leader. I... I am Tang Xiao Min."
