233: Chapter 233 Purple's Awakening

She raised her blade to parry, but without the enhancement of her Superpower, her speed could not keep up with the Cat Demon's attack frequency at all. Very soon, her battle armor was torn with several gashes, followed by flesh stained red with blood.

It was another round of suppression; at this moment, the battle armor on Zi's body was almost completely dismantled, and she had nearly become a bloody mess.

The metal mask on her face had been slashed to pieces, revealing a rather pretty face.

Although she was in a desperate situation, she still kept her composure, relying on her spiritual energy shield and the remnants of her battle armor to hold on stubbornly.

She was still waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity where the Cat Demon's vigilance would drop to its lowest...

A few more wounds were added to Zi's body.

The Cat Demon seemed to have grown tired of playing.

She waved her hand at Zi: "Hey, your teammates are about to..."

For Zi, her entire focus was completely concentrated on the Cat Demon at this moment, and she didn't pay any attention to what she was saying at all.

Now... the opportunity has arrived!

She lowered her body and charged straight at the Cat Demon in front of her.

The Cat Demon turned invisible again, dodging her attack. However... this time, the result was different...

Just as the Cat Demon materialized by her side, preparing to kill this annoying Esper in one blow, an unprecedented sense of crisis suddenly exploded in her mind.

No... didn't I already dodge it... how is this possible...

Vaguely, she seemed to see that in the other hand of this bloody person, a folding knife had suddenly appeared.

"Idiot, I never said my acceleration couldn't be used in segments!"

It turned out that during her charge towards the Cat Demon, Zi had taken out another knife in advance, using one knife to release the acceleration after locking onto the enemy, and then, after the Cat Demon's invisibility ended, she used the second knife to release a second acceleration, catching her off guard with an information gap.

"Meow~ Looks like I played myself..."

"Clang~"

Right before the Cat Demon's ghost mask, the folding knife containing Zi's fatal blow stopped dead in its tracks above her head, failing to descend any further.

She swallowed hard, then turned around and kicked Zi away.

Zi's body slammed into the wall, creating several spiderweb-like cracks. She then collapsed heavily to the ground, struggled for a moment, but ultimately failed to get back up.

"Thanks, Sister Huan! That was close..." Her consciousness gradually dissipating, the Cat Demon's voice became increasingly blurred.

Just a little bit, really just a little bit...

If it weren't for the fact that my mask was damaged at the end, and I was controlled by that Sea Demon's voice, I would definitely... No, I cannot fall, I cannot give up, I must stand up...

Meanwhile, the tall Lion Demon casually blasted the last standing human away, turned his head, and said to the Cat Demon:

"I told you not to be careless; now it's dragged on for so long... We don't even know what the situation is in the private room. We need to hurry over, otherwise, it will be troublesome once the humans react..."

After speaking, he and the Sea Demon turned and walked towards the private room.

"Sorry, sorry..."

The Cat Demon tapped her head, said sheepishly, and then quickly jogged over, wanting to catch up with her companions.

"No... you cannot enter..."

The three demons stopped in their tracks.

In their shocked gaze, the woman in the purple combat suit, who was no longer recognizable as human from the outside, used her folding knife for support and slowly stood up from the ground, blocking the door to the private room.

"No way! Is your skin that thick? How are you not dead yet!"

The Cat Demon was somewhat bristled.

Although she had only kicked her away at the time, the force was definitely not something she could have withstood in her state back then. Why could she still stand up?!

"Lan is dead, everyone..."

Zi opened her bloodshot eyes, and the blood flowing down from her forehead entered her eyes, stinging a little.

But after seeing the few figures lying on the ground, whose lives and deaths were unknown, she felt that she could no longer feel the pain in her body; all that remained was the determination to kill the three demons in front of her.

"All of you must die today..."

Her voice was a bit hoarse, and she looked like an evil spirit crawling out of Hell.

"Meow! Just die obediently for me!"

The Cat Demon was very angry; she felt her dignity had been severely challenged.

She activated her Innate Talent, instantly appearing in front of Zi, and slashed down with a claw. This time, she aimed for the neck.

She must kill this eyesore of a human...

In fact, even if the Cat Demon didn't make a move, Zi felt the life force in her body rapidly draining away. Being able to stand up this time relied entirely on her own willpower.

She didn't know how much time had passed; she only knew that until now, that fourth demon hadn't appeared, which meant Yun Sheng was still alive, and her mission hadn't ended yet.

As long as she could hold on for ten minutes, once the higher-ups reacted, all the demons here would die...

"Come on... dragging it out for a moment is still dragging it out..."

She wanted to raise her blade, but the exhaustion of her body could no longer support her in performing this action that she could easily do before...

"..."

There was no sound, no warning.

Zi felt a patch of white suddenly appear in her field of vision.

The shadow of the Cat Demon's sharp claws was still hanging high above her head, but it seemed to be stuck by something and couldn't move an inch.

"Has the rescue arrived..."

The corners of Zi's mouth curled up slightly; with her mind relaxed, she closed her eyes and was about to faint.

However...

"Hum!"

Red Demonic Power instantly filled the entire space.

No... it's a demon! It's their companion...

She forcibly used her knife to stop her body from leaning back, preparing to see who the white figure in front of her was, but soon, a flick to the forehead made her simply pass out.

"Sigh~ Finally passed out. I feel like if Qiaoyan met you, she would definitely treat you like a soulmate..."

Xing Yaoyan, who was steadily catching the Cat Demon's claws with one hand, smiled helplessly.

Then she turned her head, looking somewhat playfully at the Cat Demon in front of her who was exerting all her strength yet remained helpless, and parted her red lips:

"How is it... discovered that you can't use your Innate Talent, right... If you ask me, you are all too unprofessional; you didn't even bother to find out that this Young Miss was coming beforehand. By the way, can I interpret your attack on me as..."

Xing Yaoyan deliberately drew out her voice, then said with a playful tone:

"You are attempting to assassinate the Saintess of the Demon Race... right!"
