Jiandan clearly heard Mozhi's warning to stop, but why should she stop? She had not provoked this battle, and she saw no need to show mercy to someone who was bent on killing her. Therefore, after the Demon Moon Slash had absorbed enough power, she merely uttered a single word: "Slash." At the same time, she unfurled the Manjusaka Domain, which belonged solely to the Demon Moon Monarch.
She intended to kill Moliao, but she could not actually destroy the entire Demon Continent; after all, these were innocent people. Committing such a massive amount of murderous karma would make her fear being struck by tribulation lightning when advancing in her Cultivation—the Heavenly Dao was the most fair of all.
Moliao felt the threat of death, never so clearly before in his life. Subconsciously, he held his ghost-head saber in front of him, hoping to buy himself a little time.
