“Attack!”
The North Thearch roared as his long sword danced again and formed yet another black hole. Ao Lu had blocked the previous attack; how many times could he continue blocking them? The North Thearch could incessantly create Spatial Shackles to make Xiao Fei, the Shadow Emperor, and company into live targets while the Battle Thearch’s attacks could also persist. How many times could Ao Lu block all the attacks?
Tsk! Tsk!
A huge black hole once again formed in the spatial zone. The North Thearch did not choose to trap Ao Lu; the black hole would disintegrate very easily. He chose to continue targeting Xiao Fei, the Shadow Emperor, and others. If Ao Lu did not block the barrage of attacks—when Xiao Fei dies, the war would be over!
Ao Lu knew the North Thearch and Battle Thearch’s intentions; however, what could he do? The Black Deity, Shadow Emperor, and company were all severely wounded while the little fox was still very young. It was possible that Xiao Fei had only just broken through to become a Demon Sovereign. Her battle strength and experience were severely lacking; if Ao Lu did not protect her, she would immediately be torn into pieces. Once Xiao Fei dies, there would be no hope left.
It was a checkmate!
The human Demigods were attacking continuously while the North Thearch repeatedly released his Spatial Shackles. Ao Lu could only use his real body to shield everyone. However, his tortoise shell had cracked previously. Although some scars have already started to heal, his shell’s defensive abilities were significantly weakened. After receiving the third attack by the Battle Thearch’s nine-star dao pattern and the remaining Demigods, Ao Lu’s tortoise shell was also almost entirely broken. The flesh behind the shell was also slowly becoming visible.
To be able to single-handedly withstand three attacks that comprised a nine-star dao pattern and the attacks of a few dozen seven- and eight-star martial artists, Ao Lu’s defenses were indeed number one. It was unfortunately clear that Ao Lu would not be able to withstand that many more attacks; once his tortoise shell broke into pieces, Ao Lu would perish. When Ao Lu died, the battle would—more or less—be over.
“All to spread out! Kill as many as you can!”
Ao Lu once again looked towards Mystic Martial City and sighed faintly. He dispelled the Spatial Shackles that was trapping Xiao Fei and company and shot towards the Battle Thearch, the North Thearch, and others. He was prepared to kill as many as he could.
“Uh…”
After flying for just a few thousand feet, Ao Lu’s huge tortoise head suddenly turned and looked behind him. His eyes that were bigger than cows were filled with delight. He laughed as he said, “Hahaha, there is hope for the demon race! That lass has finally come out of seclusion!”
“En?”
The Black Deity and company were originally planning to spread out in all directions, but now, they all turned to look in surprise. The Battle Thearch, North Thearch, and company also looked surprised towards the east. Soon, all their eyes narrowed as the Beast Thearch asked with surprise, “This speed… is it really something a human can possess?”
Xiao Fei’s eyes swept over, and her small face was filled with delight. She waved both her hands and shouted out, “Big Sister Xiaonu, I am Xiao Fei!”
Swish!
From the east, a green shadow shot forth from five thousand kilometers away. It was five thousand kilometers away just a second ago but was now already coming into everyone’s line of sight. That green shadow was also becoming clearer.
It was actually an absolute little beauty. She wore a white dress and had a pair of huge green wings while her hair was also dark green in color. Her eyes shone a green glow as both her hands became claws and emanated a green glow that made people’s hearts beat with fear.
Jiang Xiaonu had come out of seclusion!
Swish!
Jiang Xiaonu flew by speedily; that speed was even faster than the North Thearch, Battle Thearch, and Ao Lu’s. Within a few seconds, she had come near Xiao Fei and carried Xiao Fei in her arms. She then fixed her gaze on Ao Lu, saying, “Lord Ao Lu, I have come out of seclusion. Can you tell me now where Young Master is?”
“Uh!”
Ao Lu did not think that Jiang Xiaonu would be asking this now; after all, how critical was the current situation? Couldn’t she at least wait for the situation to have stabilized first before asking? This child had grown older by a few years but still retained her temperament.
“Kill this lady doll!”
The North Thearch and Battle Thearch exchanged glances; they both sensed danger from Jiang Xiaonu. The two of them shouted as the North Thearch unleashed his Spatial Shackles and was prepared to trap both Jiang Xiaonu and Xiao Fei for the Battle Thearch to kill the duo.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The spatial zone started to crumble again as the broken spatial zone spread towards Jiang Xiaonu at a frightening speed. Jiang Xiaonu’s expression turned cold as she spread her wings and actually became a streak of green light to escape. Even a nine-star dao pattern could not hit her.
“Big Sister Xiaonu, these are all bad people! Kill them all!”
Xiao Fei’s exasperated voice rang out. Jiang Xiaonu’s body formed fifty kilometers away as her eyes revealed her killing intent. Her small brain did not like to think about too many things; as long as someone wanted to kill her, she would show that person no mercy. It was such that year in the Stellarsky Continent. Especially if someone was to go against Jiang Yi, she would not bother to waste her saliva and would kill first and talk later.
Swish! Swish!
This moment, she also did not say anything. She turned her body into a green shadow again and flew into the human army. Her speed was way too fast; it was like a passing shadow. With the blink of an eye, she had rushed in front of a concealed great sect Demigod; and before he could react, she had used her sharp claws to slice his divine shield.
Tsk! Tsk!
Jiang Xiaonu’s single claw glowed with a green light as that Demigod’s divine shield shone brightly. However, that light instantly dimmed as the divine shield was broken into pieces. The Demigod did not even have time to form his attack when Jiang Xiaonu’s claw enlarged in front of him and clawed his head off!
Ss, ss—!
Countless cold gasps rang out; the North Thearch and the Battle Thearch were both shocked to the core. Jiang Xiaonu’s movement speed was fast, her attack speed was even faster, and her claws were too lethal. Although that Demigod had only the strength of a six-star martial expert, his divine shield’s defenses were already not bad. However, it had broken apart like a thin piece of tissue under Jiang Xiaonu’s attack.
Swish!
Jiang Xiaonu’s expression did not change at all after killing that Demigod. Her body flashed, and a green shadow rushed towards its next target. She was very simple but not an idiot; she could feel that the North Thearch and Battle Thearch were very dangerous while the Evil Thearch, Beast Thearch, and others were hard to kill. Hence, she targeted the six-star Demigods.
Boom! Boom!
Within merely fifteen seconds, yet another two Demigods were killed. Jiang Xiaonu’s green claw was just like the Death God’s sickle; it was exceptionally terrifying, unstoppable, and invincible.
“Retreat!”
The human Demigods were in panic mode. Even the Evil Thearch, Beast Thearch, Sword Thearch, Tang Shenji, and company were frightened. Such a horrifying speed and such lethal attacks; who could withstand that? People were getting killed without even having the chance to retaliate.
Xiao Fei, who was still within Jiang Xiaonu’s embrace, also started to attack. Her six tails waved as a pink fog started to emanate. Even though many Heaven Monarchs had divine shields, they succumbed to the pink fog as their bodies stayed still and didn’t move.
This time, not only were the Demigods panicking, but the entire human army was also in a mess. Jiang Xiaonu and Xiao Fei, one human and one fox, could destroy the entire human army. What battle was there left to fight? If all the Heaven Monarchs were bewitched, they would all become the little fox’s puppets and start to kill their own!
The North Thearch and Battle Thearch exchanged glances as they transformed into two rainbow streaks and chased after Jiang Xiaonu. The two did not care about killing Ao Lu, the Black Deity, and the rest; if they did not kill Jiang Xiaonu and Xiao Fei, there was no way the battle could continue.
Yet…
Once the two started chasing, they were in for a surprise. Their speeds could not match Jiang Xiaonu’s. Furthermore, as Jiang Xiaonu had dashed into the human army, the duo couldn’t unleash their attacks and wipe out the human army as well, right?
“We are done for!”
The two chased for a few dozens of kilometers and finally gave up. The two had not expected that though victory was just within grasp, the entire situation had been reversed by a young lady and a little fox.
“Jiang Xiaonu, stop!”
Just when the North Thearch, the Battle Thearch, and the other formidable martial artists were helpless and about to signal the retreat, a soft voice of a lady came from the west. Xing Mengwan had brought nine Heaven Nether Sect Demigods and had suddenly appeared. Her features were defined as a soft gentle glow emanated from her face. With her white dress fluttering, it was just like a fairy coming down to earth.
Xing Mengwan reached the heart of the battle, looked at Jiang Xiaonu, and said lightly, “As a human, you are actually helping the demon race to kill your own? You are committing a perverse act and going against the heavens; if you do not repent, the heavens will not tolerate you!”
