271: Chapter 271 One Against Two

As soon as Ao Canyin reached the vicinity of Demon Nine and Yi Kuhan, he felt a bone-chilling Aura rushing toward him.

"This Aura... is it coming from that human girl?"

"No wonder Demon Nine sent out a call for help so quickly; she really isn't someone he can handle alone."

Sensing the powerful Aura emanating from Yi Kuhan, Ao Canyin thought to himself.

Then, he erupted with his full Aura, clearly intending to end the fight quickly.

"This Heavenly Demon Clan Cultivator actually has a cultivation of the Second Grade Mortal Transformation Realm. This is going to be difficult."

At this moment, Yi Kuhan frowned slightly and thought to herself.

It wasn't that Yi Kuhan couldn't defeat the Second Grade Mortal Transformation Realm Ao Canyin, but rather her current internal condition didn't allow her to use her full strength.

To suppress the divine phoenix origin within her body, Yi Kuhan could only exert half of her usual strength at most.

Once she used more than fifty percent of her magic power, the divine phoenix origin inside her could erupt at any moment.

"There must be no mistakes in this matter. Let's join forces and strike with everything we've got to finish off this human girl as quickly as possible."

Before his voice had even faded, the powerful attacks of Ao Canyin and Demon Nine reached Yi Kuhan.

Watching their fierce offensive, a cold glint flashed through Yi Kuhan's eyes and vanished.

Although Ao Canyin's appearance made her feel things were a bit tricky, it didn't mean she would just sit and wait for death.

If it truly came down to life and death, Yi Kuhan would definitely strike with all her might to kill the two of them.

Even if the divine phoenix origin erupted because of it, it would be better than dying here right now, wouldn't it?

With the Second Grade Mortal Transformation Realm Ao Canyin joining the battlefield, Yi Kuhan felt the pressure increase significantly.

The tacit cooperation of the two Devil Heads left her momentarily flustered, forcing her into a steady retreat.

"Xiao Jiu, put in more effort; she's about to break."

A cold light flashed in Ao Canyin's eyes as he spoke.

"Hmph!"

"What time is it, and you're still thinking about holding back your strength!"

Although Demon Nine was very displeased with Ao Canyin's behavior, the intensity of his attacks couldn't help but increase.

The overwhelming offensive made Yi Kuhan, who was already at a disadvantage, even more exhausted to deal with.

"Shape-Shifting Shadow Transfer!"

Just as Yi Kuhan was focusing on dealing with Demon Nine's frantic attacks, Ao Canyin suddenly activated his innate Divine Ability.

Indeed, this innate Divine Ability was the one Magic Scorpion had comprehended.

Ao Canyin himself hadn't expected that after devouring Magic Scorpion, he would actually inherit the other's innate Divine Ability, Shape-Shifting Shadow Transfer.

"Bang!"

A palm suddenly reached out from thin air behind Yi Kuhan, and as soon as it appeared, it struck ruthlessly toward the back of her heart.

When Ao Canyin's palm was only 0.01 centimeters away from Yi Kuhan's back, a green light barrier suddenly enveloped her.

"This... this is... Magic Treasure protecting its master!"

Upon seeing the green light barrier around Yi Kuhan, Demon Nine couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

"Look at your unrefined behavior. Is there a need to make such a big fuss?"

"It's just a mere Earth Rank Magic Treasure; it won't be able to withstand our attacks for long."

With just a glance, Ao Canyin saw through the rank of the dragon-shaped pendant.

At the same time.

The phoenix-shaped pendant hanging around Yun Chenfei's neck suddenly vibrated.

"Not good, Senior Sister is in danger!"

The moment he sensed the movement of the phoenix-shaped pendant, Yun Chenfei guessed that the dragon-shaped pendant on Yi Kuhan must have triggered its automatic protection function.

This caused Yun Chenfei's phantom-like figure to speed up even more.

"Senior Sister, you must hold on..."

Fallen Phoenix Valley was neither large nor small; even though Yun Chenfei possessed Kunpeng Divine Speed, reaching Yi Kuhan's location wasn't something that could be done in an instant.

On Yi Kuhan's side, after the dragon-shaped pendant blocked Ao Canyin's sneak attack, she felt a wave of lingering fear.

"Thanks to the pendant Xiao Yunzi gave me, otherwise this time... even if I didn't die, I'm afraid I would have been seriously injured."

Gently stroking the dragon-shaped pendant hanging around her neck, a warm feeling couldn't help but rise in Yi Kuhan's heart.

Ao Canyin and Demon Nine's attacks only paused for a brief moment before raining down on Yi Kuhan again.

However, with the protection of the dragon-shaped pendant this time, Yi Kuhan was much more relaxed.

Yi Kuhan knew very well that with the strength she could currently exert, it was almost impossible to defeat the Second Grade Mortal Transformation Realm Ao Canyin in a short time.

She decided to settle for the next best thing and focused on pummeling Demon Nine alone; since she had the green protective barrier, she didn't need to worry about defense for the time being.

"Dammit!"

"The one who sneak-attacked you was that devious bastard Ao Canyin, not me!"

"Why do you keep focusing only on beating me up!"

Facing Yi Kuhan's fierce offensive, Demon Nine was like a mute eating yellow lotus—having suffering he couldn't speak of.

Not long after, Demon Nine was beaten until he was covered in blood, looking like a frost-bitten eggplant, listless and weary.

If Ao Canyin hadn't been helping to block most of the attacks, Demon Nine's corpse would have been cold by now.

"Pant, pant!"

"This crazy woman, once the protective barrier is broken, I'll definitely let you know the consequences of enraging this lord!"

Wiping the crimson blood from the corner of his mouth, Demon Nine thought viciously.

Although the green barrier emitted by the dragon-shaped pendant had enough energy to withstand a strike from a Half-Saint, it wasn't inexhaustible.

Under the repeated attacks of Ao Canyin and Demon Nine, the green barrier around Yi Kuhan was already flickering and teetering on the verge of collapse.

Seeing this, a hint of joy appeared in the eyes of the two Devil Heads, and they both increased the intensity of their attacks in unison.

"Sigh!"

"I originally wanted to use this time to take down one Devil Head, but it seems that won't work."

At this point, Yi Kuhan already intended to retreat.

"Jie, jie, jie!"

"Thinking of running away now? Too late!"

Just as Yi Kuhan was about to flee, a figure appeared in front of her.

She tried changing directions several times, but Ao Canyin's ghostly figure always managed to block her path.

"This Devil Head's innate Divine Ability is so strange!"

"It seems that if I don't deal with him, I won't be able to escape this time."

After a few attempts were blocked, Yi Kuhan gave up on the idea of fleeing.

"Her protective treasure is about to give out. Use your ultimate move and try to take her down in one go."

Seeing that Yi Kuhan was no longer trying to escape, Ao Canyin quietly sent a voice transmission to Demon Nine.

Hearing this, Demon Nine immediately stopped and began to condense his magic power.

"Shadow Devil Light Wave!"

"Phantom Devil Aurora Slash!"

A moment later, two masses of pitch-black Devilish Qi, one after the other, shot rapidly toward Yi Kuhan in a pincer attack.
