Chapter 404: I am still a Demon
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
If Fang Zhengzhi's breakthrough had instilled fear and shock in the Demons, Chi Guyan's abilities instilled terror, unparalleled terror.
If Fang Zhengzhi was a threat to the Demon race, so was Chi Guyan!
Even though all of the Demons knew that Chi Guyan was a threat two years ago. However, when they saw how much she had progressed, their hearts still trembled in fear.
Fang Zhengzhi was in the Supernatural State!
Chi Guyan had also broken through to the Supernatural State!
Did the Demon race still have a future?
All of the demons had no other choice but to suppress these thoughts. The blood in their hearts was already boiling.
Supernatural State demons were elites in their own rights. However, when they were facing Chi Guyan, they felt like they were nothing.
"Sh*t!"
"Ah…"
Blood and screams filled the air.
The lightswords penetrated their bodies and exploded inside their bodies. Then, the injuries were reopened by additional lightswords before they could heal.
Wu Ji watched on ferociously.
As a Rebirth State Demon, he had the abilities and ego of a Rebirth State cultivator. He wanted to capture Chi Guyan when he saw the ray of light shooting earthward.
But, it was a fleeting thought.
Because…
After he found out that Chi Guyan had broken through to the Supernatural State, he was not confident of succeeding. Even if he teamed up with Bai Xing…
Their success was not guaranteed.
Generally, any probability above 50% was worth a shot, but he could not go for it this time. He had another important mission.
Protect Yun Qingwu.
Could the dozens of demon elites protect Yun Qingwu?
Definitely!
However, they were struggling to protect themselves. What if Yun Qingwu was still injured despite their best efforts?
But if the two Rebirth State Demons joined the fray…
Even Chi Guyan's powerful attack would not be able to harm Yun Qingwu.
Chi Guyan knew this. As such, she used the Million Sword Illustration and combined it with the rain. This ensured that Wu Ji had to spend his effort protecting Yun Qingwu.
As for Bai Xing…
She had placed herself right in front of Bai Xing. Since she did not move, Bai Xing could not move.
Yun Qingwu's expression was icy.
She knew that Chi Guyan would possibly appear here, but she did not expect that Chi Guyan would be in the Supernatural State. Neither did she expect that Fang Zhengzhi would breakthrough here.
"Two Supernatural… Supernatural State talents?" Yun Qingwu looked at Chi Guyan and Fang Zhengzhi as she heard the screams around her.
A look of helplessness flashed across her eyes.
This should have never appeared. After all, she was the young master of the demons, someone who was immensely powerful and intelligent!
When she was 10 years old…
Yun Qingwu had led the armies of six of the demonic domains back to the Blood Shadow City, stunning the entire race.
Six domains of soldiers.
Loyal to the 10-year-old Yun Qingwu.
How scary was that?!
On the second day, her father had given her command of the remaining four domain armies in front of the four most influential families.
On that day, the Demon Lord had only one request.
On that day, Yun Qingwu had sworn to the Demon ancestors that she would serve the Demons till her last breath!
"Young master, leave Fang Zhengzhi to us! You should leave first!"
"Protect her retreat!"
"Ah… young master, please go!"
Voices rang out from atop the cliff as blood mixed with the rain. The dozens of demon elites continued to struggle and scream…
Yun Qingwu's body shivered.
It wasn't because the Million Sword Illustration had injured her. In fact, she had been standing in the same spot throughout…
But the lightswords could not hurt her.
Because…
She was being protected by the dozens of demon elites as well as Wu Ji.
"Young master, don't hesitate any longer!"
"Young master, please leave first!"
"Young master, we will bring back Fang Zhengzhi, even if it costs us our lives!"
Their voices were filled with anxiety and loyalty. They were willing to lay down their lives for her.
"Go?" Yun Qingwu raised her head and looked at the rays of silver light dropping from the heavens.
How powerful!
That thought flashed past Yun Qingwu's mind. Even though she admired Chi Guyan's power…
Xuan Heavenly Dao Body…
Supernatural State!
The top talent of the generation!
Powerful, really very powerful!
How powerful would a Supernatural State talent with 388 Daos be?!
Yun Qingwu looked at the prone figure next to her. Fang Zhengzhi was there…
No one was closer to him than Yun Qingwu.
When Fang Zhengzhi fainted, he was still holding onto Yun Qingwu's leg…
The lightswords continued to fall to the ground.
Yun Qingwu was not hurt and neither was Fang Zhengzhi. After all, Fang Zhengzhi was right beside her.
I am… a demon!
Yun Qingwu's lips twitched as she looked at Fang Zhengzhi. She saw that he was still unconscious and her eyes glimmered.
I swore that I will not let the Demon Race kill you, but I never said that I would not do it myself!" Yun Qingwu's voice rang out.
At the same time, her feet moved.
The movement was not big.
However, it was enough to kick the unconscious Fang Zhengzhi…
Off the cliff!
There wasn't much sound, but there was already a figure tumbling down the side of the cliff.
"Let the heavens decide your fate!"
…
In the sky, the Snow Wind Eagle shrieked and shot down from the sky like a comet.
Ping Yang would not watch idly by as Fang Zhengzhi tumbled down the cliff.
As such…
She decided to show off her abilities as a princess.
However, she underestimated the Demons behind Yun Qingwu. They were willing to die for her.
Just as Fang Zhengzhi was tumbling down the cliff, two figures in black jumped off the cliff along with his body to block Ping Yang.
"No one can interfere with the young master's decision!"
"Let me go!"
The two black figures did not follow Fang Zhengzhi. Fang Zhengzhi's fate was in Yun Qingwu's hands.
Since Yun Qingwu had made her decision, no one could be allowed to interfere.
Two rays of light beamed.
They unsheathed their blades and charged towards the Snow Wind Eagle. They jumped right in front of the eagle.
They were not slower than the Snow Wind Eagle.
However, the Snow Wind Eagle had the upper ground.
"Boom!"
The ensuing crash was resounding.
"Aroo!" The Snow Wind Eagle shrieked and spread its wings. After its clash with the demons, it flew back into the sky.
Ping Yang's jaw dropped because she never thought that there would be demons prepared to block her advance.
This moment of lapse…
Meant that the opportunity had lapsed.
The Snow Wind Eagle would not risk further injury to try and rescue Fang Zhengzhi. After all, its main mission was to ensure Ping Yang's safety.
As such, after being blocked by two Supernatural State Demons, it chose to turn back and fly to the sky.
Chi Guyan wanted to move.
However, Bai Xing was standing in front of her. If Bai Xing didn't move, neither could she.
"Save him!" Chi Guyan's voice rang out from the cliff. This time, her tone was filled with anxiety.
She was truly anxious.
The candidates heard Chi Guyan's voice but they could not save Fang Zhengzhi. They were too far away.
Xing Qingsui wanted to save him too, but he was commanding the 50,000 strong army towards the gates of the Icy Monkey Settlement. He could not appear on the cliff.
Xing Yuanguo was fast, but even his speed was insufficient to punch through 100,000 soldiers and turn up next to Fang Zhengzhi.
Neither could Nangong Hao.
Every member of the Great Xia army wanted to save him.
But…
The ones at the bottom of the cliff were not soldiers of the Great Xia.
The Great Xia army had been surrounded from the start. That area was firmly in the hands of the Southern Region soldiers.
