Chapter 103: Will You Come With Me? [One Chapter Today, Don't Wait]
Rumble...
The sky had completely darkened, with lightning and thunder.
A lightning vortex formed in the sky, brewing terrifying power.
Endless Devilish Qi surged from within the Demon Summoning Array, and everyone, disregarding everything else, just wanted to leave this terrifying place.
Ah—
Various shrill screams rose and fell.
The Tianquan Sect Disciples who didn't manage to escape were instantly sucked into dried corpses by the terrifying Devilish Qi.
Their flesh and blood vanished, leaving only skin and bones.
Some were directly seized in mid-air and shoved into mouths.
The Ox Devil Head laughed uproariously, its gaze greedily fixed on everyone around, as if it had discovered the most delicious offerings in the world.
Everyone showed panic, but Pei Xuanji seemed as if nothing had happened.
Soon, the second Demon Race monster emerged, with two huge heads simultaneously probing out of the Devilish Qi vortex.
“How many years has it been since I tasted human flavor? This Venerable One is back!”
However, the moment the Ox Devil Head clearly saw Pei Xuanji's appearance, it froze on the spot.
Thump.
The Ox Devil Head stomped its foot, shaking the earth.
This space was squeezed by an invisible force, mountains and rivers shattered, and the lagging Tianquan Sect Disciples were directly shaken from the air.
They could only watch helplessly as the Devilish Qi spread, invading their bodies.
The screams from the Tianquan Sect were incessant, and in just a short stick of incense's time, all the Disciples on the ground perished.
At this moment, the Ox Devil Head finally looked contentedly at the summoner who had called it here, hovering in the air.
These lowly humans, in their pursuit of powerful strength, always sought their help.
So, by simply spreading the Demon Race's Cultivation Techniques and the Demon Summoning Array Disks, they would have an endless supply of offerings.
It was a pity that after the Human and Demon Realms were separated, it had never tasted such delicious offerings again.
Its mood was good today; the offerings prepared by this ant were quite satisfactory, and it could grant the other party a small wish.
This was just the beginning; its ability to come over indicated that a loophole had appeared in the barrier between the Human and Demon Realms.
As long as they passed through this realm, their Demon Race could enter other Human Realm worlds.
It wouldn't be long before their Demon Race could make a comeback.
And this human summoner before it would only become a servant of the Demon Race, or the next offering.
“Summoner who seeks power, what is your wish—”
However, when the Ox Devil Head clearly saw who the summoner in the air was, its arm stiffened.
In its large hand, it was holding three Tianquan Sect Disciples.
As its palm subconsciously loosened, the three immediately flew away.
Due to their extreme fear, the three swayed unsteadily as they flew.
However, the Ox Devil Head didn't bother with the three; its gaze was fixed on Pei Xuanji in the air.
Thud!
The earth trembled, and its knees buckled, directly falling to the ground.
“Demon Envoy, Your Excellency.”
Hearing this title, Di Bing's steps paused, and she stopped again to observe.
Li Yunshu gazed from afar at the red-robed figure standing in the air, only now realizing that the Empress was so influential even in the Demon Realm.
This leg is so slippery everywhere, no, this leg is so thick everywhere.
Hearing the words “Demon Envoy, Your Excellency,” the two heads currently climbing out of the Devilish Qi vortex simultaneously turned.
After clearly seeing Pei Xuanji in the air, they immediately widened their eyes and retreated without a sound.
At this moment, the world was silent, with only the huge Devilish Qi vortex remaining in the sky.
Shangguan Shuangyue looked at the kneeling Ox-headed monster from the Demon Realm; she couldn't even muster the thought of resisting its powerful aura.
Facing an Empress who was her equal, that Ox Devil Head immediately knelt, making her wonder what kind of existence she had summoned from the Demon Realm back then.
Pei Xuanji raised her hand, pointed at Shangguan Shuangyue, and said indifferently.
“Kill her.”
“As Demon Envoy, Your Excellency commands.”
The Ox Devil Head looked up at Shangguan Shuangyue, about to act, but saw Shangguan Shuangyue charging towards the Empress again.
Pei Xuanji's expression turned cold, and she unleashed a palm strike.
However, Shangguan Shuangyue suddenly withdrew her hand and took the Empress's palm strike without any resistance.
Bang!
As a figure exploded into a blood mist in the air, Shangguan Shuangyue chose to die by the Empress's hand.
The Ox Devil Head's hand was awkwardly held in mid-air, and it stammered.
“Demon Envoy, Your Excellency, forgive me, forgive me...”
Pei Xuanji glanced at it, and just said one cold word.
“Scram!”
“This humble one will scram immediately.”
After the Ox Devil Head finished speaking, it actually lay on the ground and rolled all the way back into the Devilish Qi vortex it came from.
Finally, it flipped its body and rolled back to the Demon Realm.
Li Yunshu's mouth hung open, not knowing what to say.
Just then, Pei Xuanji suddenly appeared before him.
Di Bing immediately shielded him behind her, vigilantly staring at Pei Xuanji.
“Pei Xuanji, you've harmed so many of my Tianquan Sect Disciples, what else do you want?”
Looking at Di Bing's hand gripping Li Yunshu's wrist, a hint of displeasure showed in Pei Xuanji's eyes.
“This has nothing to do with you anymore.”
“What do you mean it has nothing to do with me? You've done this to my Tianquan Sect—”
Behind her, Li Yunshu spoke for the Empress.
“Master's Wife, no matter what, Her Majesty has eliminated Shangguan Shuangyue, that hidden danger, for you.”
Di Bing: ╭(╯^╰)╮
“You brat, when did you learn to turn your elbow outwards?”
Seeing that Di Bing still wouldn't let go, Pei Xuanji said coldly.
“He is coming with me.”
However, Di Bing showed no intention of releasing him.
“You are a person from the Demon Realm; this matter will soon spread throughout the world. You still want Yunshu to follow you, to follow you to his death?”
“I will take him away from here.”
“You're crazy!”
Di Bing looked at Pei Xuanji as if she were a madwoman, shaking her head repeatedly.
The dignified Great Chu Empress now intended to be a hands-off manager and simply leave.
She had just seen some clues about Pei Xuanji's status in the Demon Realm.
But she also saw Pei Xuanji's strength clearly.
To put it bluntly, it was merely her identity that was intimidating.
Just that one Ox Devil Head could sweep across the entire Great Chu.
Who knew how many terrifying existences there were in the Demon Realm; how could she let Li Yunshu follow this Demon Head back to the Demon Realm?
“It's understandable for you, a person from the Demon Realm, to return to the Demon Realm, but what do you intend to do by taking Yunshu to the Demon Realm?”
Pei Xuanji was uncharacteristically silent; she seemed unable to provide a sufficient reason.
However, she knew she wanted to do it.
Seeing that she couldn't answer, Di Bing sneered.
“The Tianquan Sect still has its foundation, and I can gradually control the Heavenly Demon Sect.
If Yunshu stays here, I can ensure his safety and worry-free cultivation.
What about you? What can you give him?”
Li Yunshu took a step forward, but before he could speak, Di Bing immediately pulled him back.
“Are you out of your mind?!” Di Bing turned and glared at him, “I am your Master's Wife; I must watch over you for Duan Ping. Don't even think about doing anything foolish.”
She had long since realized that there was something going on between these two.
If Pei Xuanji were merely the Empress of Great Chu, as his Master's Wife, she would be more than happy for them to be together.
On their wedding day, she would only applaud the boy's capability.
Now, whether Pei Xuanji stayed in this world or returned to the Demon Realm, she could not let Li Yunshu leave.
“Master's Wife...”
However, the more Li Yunshu struggled, the tighter Di Bing's small hand gripped.
“Shut up!”
Pei Xuanji said coldly.
“You can't stop me.”
Di Bing raised her chin.
“Then you'll have to kill me, otherwise, don't even think about taking Yunshu away.”
The red-robed figure looked at Li Yunshu.
“Will you come with me?”
