Tantai Mingyue's radiant, jade-like face was filled with murderous intent at this moment.
Indeed, she had been reborn.
In her previous life, the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable had betrayed his master and annihilated his ancestors, slaughtering everyone in the Qingxuan Holy Land and bringing disaster to the entire cultivation world.
The Heaven Refining Demon Venerable, Qín Tiān, possessed peerless talent, the Unsurpassed Heavenly Talent of All Ages in the cultivation world.
Alas, he had fallen into the Demonic Path.
From the very first moment Tantai Mingyue laid eyes on the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable, she was captivated by him.
So she had been chasing after the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable, believing her actions would move him.
But who would have thought that after offending the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable at the Xuantian Gate, he would have directly annihilated the entire Xuantian Gate without hesitation.
Even when she, Tantai Mingyue, stepped forward and pleaded for Xuantian Gate to be spared out of consideration for her, the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable still did not agree.
He even shot her through the heart without hesitation when she stood against him.
Tantai Mingyue clutched her chest, still feeling waves of sharp pain.
"Qín Tiān, Qín Tiān, how could you do this to me? For you, I severed ties with my sect."
Tantai Mingyue said with anguish, "For you, I betrayed my master, for you, I stole the sect's most precious treasures. And yet, this is how you treat me?"
Tantai Mingyue closed her eyes, her heart unable to find peace.
Scene after scene from her previous life flashed before her eyes.
What Tantai Mingyue hated the most was that despite all her sacrifices, Qín Tiān remained indifferent to her.
"Qín Tiān, Qín Tiān, you never expected me to return, did you?"
Tantai Mingyue said coldly, "In this life, I will make you pay for your blood debt. I will make you pay the price. Those who betray true hearts deserve to die. In this life, I will make you fall in love with me, and then I will cruelly abandon you. I want to know what it feels like to lose the one you love."
Tantai Mingyue let out a cold snort. In her previous life, she had followed closely behind Qín Tiān for a very long time.
She was very familiar with the past of this Heaven Refining Demon Venerable.
This Heaven Refining Demon Venerable had once been the senior disciple brother in the Qingxuan Holy Land, toiling diligently and without complaint.
It was just that everyone in the Qingxuan Holy Land had let down this senior disciple brother.
Therefore, Qín Tiān had fallen into the Demonic Path, becoming the notorious Heaven Refining Demon Venerable.
This proved that this Heaven Refining Demon Venerable was also a kind-hearted person.
Tantai Mingyue pondered, deep in thought. With the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable's peerless talent, it would be difficult to confront him head-on.
After all, in her previous life, even with the combined might of the entire cultivation world, they had failed to kill the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable.
Instead, the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable grew stronger with each battle, and before everyone's eyes, he ascended to the heavens.
Therefore, facing the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable, only cunning would work.
The only way was to awaken the kindness that was once rooted in the Heaven Refining Demon Venerable's heart and then exploit it ruthlessly.
Tantai Mingyue quickly organized her thoughts and said with a smile, "Qín Tiān, Qín Tiān, in the previous life, you paid me no mind. In this life, let everything be different. You absolutely must not fall in love with me, otherwise, you are destined to grow old alone."
Tantai Mingyue laughed heartily and then began to order her disciples to inquire about the current time.
Upon hearing news from the cultivation world, Tantai Mingyue instantly understood.
"Has it returned to the time just as the great devil was rising in his previous life?"
Tantai Mingyue murmured to herself, "At this time, the great devil had just fallen into the Demonic Path, and his good intentions had not yet completely vanished. Perhaps I can use these good intentions. Qín Tiān, Qín Tiān, you had best pray you don't fall in love with me."
Tantai Mingyue immediately prepared to act. Having lived a second life, she was determined to reclaim everything that belonged to her. Meanwhile, on the other side, Qín Tiān had already found the location of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion.
The Heavenly Machine Pavilion had always been elusive in the cultivation world, exceptionally mysterious.
It deduced heavenly secrets and acted on behalf of the Heavenly Dao.
For others, it would be difficult to find the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, but this was Qín Tiān, who also possessed the Heavenly Dao System.
Therefore, the Heavenly Machine Pavilion's hiding was nothing in front of Qín Tiān.
After discovering the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, Qín Tiān began to set up a grand formation around it, ensuring that the entire Heavenly Machine Pavilion would be enshrouded, leaving no one inside able to escape.
Before the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, shrouded in mist, Qín Tiān stood tall, like a war god descending from the nine heavens. In his hand, he clutched the Great Luo Immortal Sword, its blade shimmering, reflecting his unruly and stern face.
He parted his thin lips and let out a low hum, as if capable of shaking the universe, "The World-Destroying Demonic Lord has come to pay respects to the Heavenly Machine Pavilion. I invite you all to enter my Human Emperor Banner and share the Great Dao!"
With that, his sword light, like a dragon, tore through the sky, carrying earth-shattering momentum, and struck directly into the depths of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, causing the entire structure to tremble violently, dust flying everywhere, as if even heaven and earth had changed their color.
Inside the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, the originally serene atmosphere was completely shattered by this sudden turn of events.
Disciples' faces showed horror, and they rushed out from their cultivation spots, their robes fluttering, filled with shock and anger.
"Who dares to be so arrogant and invade our Heavenly Machine Holy Land?"
An elder with white hair and beard roared, his voice like a thunderous bell, shaking the surrounding air.
"Invading your Heavenly Machine Pavilion?"
Qín Tiān laughed heartily, "It is your Heavenly Machine Pavilion that dares to offend This Seat. A bunch of petty people, daring to scheme against This Seat, die for me."
As soon as this old man appeared, his body was directly annihilated by Qín Tiān and absorbed into the Human Emperor Banner.
"It's the World-Destroying Demonic Lord, Qín Tiān! Kill this demon!"
"Demon! At a time like this, instead of hiding and fleeing, you dare to come to our Heavenly Machine Pavilion?"
Yan Wei, under the guise of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion's Saintess, had already spread the title of World-Destroying Demonic Lord Qín Tiān throughout the land.
Simultaneously, she had also circulated Qín Tiān's portrait everywhere, determined to leave him no escape.
The people of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion thought that at this time, Qín Tiān would be hiding like a rat in a sewer.
Who would have imagined that Qín Tiān would not only not hide but would instead attack the Heavenly Machine Pavilion?
"Heh heh heh!"
Qín Tiān said coldly, "Ants, since you know This Seat is a demon, why do you still dare to stand out? Aren't you seeking death?"
Saying this, Qín Tiān swung his Human Emperor Banner. With a flash of black light, several disciples, before they could react, were sucked into it. Their screams abruptly stopped, leaving only terrified gazes that gradually dissipated in the void.
The disciples of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion looked on in fear. They had never encountered such a powerful enemy, nor had they expected the legendary World-Destroying Demonic Lord to appear before them so openly.
Yet, even so, they held on, using their meager spiritual power to attempt to resist this invincible enemy.
Unfortunately, Qín Tiān's strength was too overwhelming.
These disciples of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion were nothing more than ants that Qín Tiān could crush with a single blow.
After all, although Qín Tiān was a disciple of his generation, his cultivation level had already caught up to those of the previous generation.
He was now a true great power in the cultivation world, needing only to overcome the heavenly tribulation to ascend to the upper realm.
