478: Lilith's Rage

On the departing spaceship, Swordsman Zou still sat beside Xiao Fan.

He looked out the window, his gaze wandering, thinking about the Wuxia stories in his mind, wondering how to use his sword to display the style of chivalry and righteousness, and he couldn't help but smile.

Xiao Fan, who was beside him, couldn't help but frown.

He couldn't forget the scenes he had just seen in Huang Lin's memory.

Swordsman Zou must be that super strong individual standing at the very front.

But at this moment, the demeanor he displayed was completely unlike that.

This reminded him of what Liu Yuan had experienced before his Awakening.

"Have you been dreaming lately?" Xiao Fan suddenly asked.

Swordsman Zou was startled, came back to his senses, and said, "Dreaming?"

"Yes, I dream every day."

Hearing this, Xiao Fan's spirits instantly lifted, and he said, "What kind of dreams?"

"This..." Swordsman Zou cleared his throat, somewhat embarrassed to speak.

He couldn't possibly say that in his dreams, he roamed the world with his sword, slaughtering all in his path and doing as he pleased, could he?

That would be too childish.

"Just... dreaming of some sword techniques," Swordsman Zou vaguely brushed it off.

Xiao Fan couldn't help but press on, saying, "Is it a desolate battlefield? And there are several people you don't know standing beside you?"

"No," Swordsman Zou shook his head in confusion.

He didn't understand why Xiao Fan would ask this question.

Just as Xiao Fan couldn't have imagined that Swordsman Zou was having childish dreams.

Finally, Xiao Fan stopped pressing, deciding to keep this secret to himself.

Unless he had a way to contact Liu Yuan, he would absolutely not reveal the secret about Swordsman Zou and Ri Tian Nian.

Because at this moment, these two clearly hadn't transformed like Liu Yuan and Zhou Mi.

But not only the Human Race, the entire Demon Race was also looking for them, wanting to kill them before they awakened.

If it got out and something unexpected happened, it would bring about a catastrophe for them.

So Xiao Fan chose silence, letting nature take its course.

And, as soon as he thought of having two potentially invincible beings standing beside him, his sense of security instantly skyrocketed.

But he didn't know.

He had already been targeted.

His performance today was too outstanding, unbelievably strong.

First, he fought Huang Lin to a standstill, then he cut through the outer barrier of the heaven piercing crystal with one slash, and finally, he instantly killed Xi Gui.

Xi Gui was no ordinary weakling; he was a Genius with Royal Blood, after all.

Most importantly was the strong demeanor he displayed when confronting Ghost Cold.

To possess that kind of aura, one not only needs strength but also needs to have been tested by blood and fire.

Ting Qiao's past resume, those high-level officials could check it clearly with a single word.

The difference was just too great.

The strength that this current Ting Qiao displayed was as different from the content on his resume as heaven and earth.

So Ting Qiao had a problem!

The strong individuals of the Demon Clan naturally hated this guy who had ruined all their plans.

So next, they would start thinking of ways to deal with this suddenly appearing strong individual.

The Demon Race, on the other hand, was somewhat hesitant.

Although Ting Qiao's performance was extremely outstanding, and he even helped them obtain the heaven piercing crystal, giving the Demon Race a great boost in morale.

His appearance seemed to be a great thing for the Demon Race.

But he was just too special, so special that it made people uneasy, and they dared not fully trust him.

Xiao Fan was aware of these looming dangers.

If he hadn't gone to kill Xi Gui, hadn't confronted Ghost Cold, none of this would have happened.

But he didn't regret it.

When he saw Lilith forcefully rush in front of him to protect him, his heart was incredibly complex.

He wasn't a blockhead, and he could barely be considered to have experience with countless women.

So he could feel that Lilith's feelings for him seemed to be a bit different.

He didn't want this to continue, leading to a situation where, after the truth came out, everyone wouldn't know how to face each other.

So he snatched the heaven piercing crystal, killed Xi Gui, extracted the essence blood, and left it for Lilith.

He felt that by giving her such tangible benefits in return, he could eventually say frankly that they owed each other nothing.

Sigh.

Xiao Fan was Lilith's enemy.

Ting Qiao was Lilith's subordinate.

It turns out creating an alternate account also has a price.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan looked out the window, sighing silently in his heart.

It's not my fault... it's my irresistible charm.

Suddenly.

"Shut up!"

A crisp scolding voice rang in Xiao Fan's ears.

Swordsman Zou, nearby, was still lost in thought, staring blankly at the clouds, as if he heard nothing.

Because this voice was heard by Xiao Fan through the No Self Realm, coming from a hidden cabin door ahead.

In that room.

Lilith was recuperating, recovering from her internal injuries.

But when she heard the strong individuals of her clan suddenly come over and talk about a series of plans targeting Ting Qiao, she disregarded the burning pain in her chest, stood up with a face full of anger, and gave these clan elders a good scolding.

"He brought us the heaven piercing crystal."

"He also killed Xi Gui, provided me with Royal Blood, and established the dignity of the Demon Race!"

"Now, you actually want to deal with him?"

"How can you be so disgusting!?"

Lilith's angry voice made the Demon Race strong individual, Dra, full of confusion.

Dra took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness Lilith."

"This Ting Qiao clearly has a problem."

"Of course we need to examine his situation, isn't that... very reasonable? Why are you so angry?"

Lilith said coldly, "Yes, perhaps his situation is special."

"But everything he did, wasn't it all for the Demon Race, for me?"

"Who doesn't have secrets?"

"Because he's too excellent, too strong, you want to strip all his secrets bare?"

"And then act as if everything he did for us doesn't exist?"

"Do you know how disappointed he will be in the Demon Race if you do this?"

"What if he gets angry and goes back to the Demon Clan directly?"

"Once trust collapses, it's almost impossible to rebuild!"

"This behavior of yours is called ingratitude!"

"I don't want to hear such words again in the future!"

"Get out!"

Lilith's resounding scolding stunned Dra. Words like 'ingratitude' didn't even exist among the Demon Race; they couldn't understand what they meant, but it just felt so reasonable.

He could only leave helplessly.

At this moment.

The shadow hidden in the dark was somewhat shocked.

Lilith's posture and expression when she spoke just now were actually somewhat similar to the King's!

Equally firm and domineering.

And the things she said also sounded like what the King would say.

At this moment, the shadow suddenly understood the true value of the King's statement that he regarded Lilith as his own daughter.

It was true.

Lilith being able to refute Dra so righteously now was definitely due to the King's words and actions.
