Bai Yan immediately raised her Godslayer to defend herself. With a loud bang as metal scratched against metal, sparks flew everywhere as their strength collided head on. However, it’s clear who was gaining the advantage here as the lady’s footing continued to crack and sink in from the crushing force.
Fortunately she had a backup plan…
Taking out the readied bottle from her storage bag, Bai Yan pops the cork and swallows the pill without delay. Immediately, she could feel the effects taking place from within and lightening up her body, thus allowing her to disappear from within view of Wu Ling’s blade.
This pill was the exact same type she gave her son before, called Swift Wind Dan Pill. Unless the foe wielded the power of a Demi Divine Lord, Bai Yan would be able to make circles around the opponent using this.
Seeing the incredible speed portrayed by the woman from out of the blue, Wu Ling’s expression promptly turned dark. He wanted to catch her and swung wildly as a result, sadly, all he caught were the afterimages and nothing more. Then before he knew it, a swinging flash of metal had come smashing down for his face. If not for the years of experience and instinct that told his body to move it, he would’ve been slashed into two!
The rest of the Guardian Knights knew they couldn’t stand back after seeing how close their captain came to losing his life there. Without further ado, everyone quickly surrounded the lady from all sides in a circling formation. Unfortunately for them though, speed would always come out on top. Forget about injuring Bai Yan, they couldn’t even knock a corner of her dress!
Very soon, a flustering look could be seen across Wu Ling’s face. “Who the hell are you? What’s your relationship with Bai Ning? Why are you attacking the Celestial Palace?”
He had thought the other side wouldn’t answer his questions, but who knew Bai Yan would by breaking out into a laughter.
“I am the wife of the Demon King, the Queen of the Demon Realm! And I am here to get revenge!”
And I am here to get revenge!
The proclamation hit the crowd hard, causing them to go pale and horrified in the face.
“Good! Hit them harder! These bunnies should all be killed! That’s what they get for bullying my granddaughter!” Already forgotten the grief he showed earlier, the crazy old coot was clapping his hands repeatedly with glee in the face. “Those who bully my granddaughter all deserve to die. My granddaughter is so good, why would they want to bully her? And that what Yun Rou whatever, she and that group of bunnies are all the same!”
It’s bad enough already for Wu Ling to contend with a foe that he dreaded, but to be hassled by the old coot as well with those damning words were just indignant and frustrating.
Damn this old coot, he’s also a member of the Celestial Palace, why is he helping that blasted demon queen? What happened in the past to make him hate us so much?
