Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 774 - 772 I’m Afraid You’ll Get Lost

The Ancient City was in ruins, and a cold wind whistled through.

On the deserted streets, devoid of life, stood a series of broken buildings and collapsed courtyards, arranged in an old order. There wasn’t even a weed on the ground, only dust and wood chips, making a stark contrast to the skeletons scattered outside the city.

Guang Xiaoyu was vigilant.

Behind her, An shivered, clutching the hem of her clothes tightly.

"What are you doing?" Guang Xiaoyu turned around.

"I’m afraid you’ll get lost," An stammered.

...

If you’re scared, just say so. Why say *I’ll* get lost?

Guang Xiaoyu didn’t bother to argue about it.

She felt an unusual aura fluctuating, cold and pressing. There also seemed to be an elusive Divine Sense pervading the air.

It was very oppressive.

The longer she remained, the more she felt as if she were being devoured.

This Dark Demon... it isn’t dead!

The Strange Power was constantly devouring.

But it was different from common Heavenly Demons and also unlike those so-called Gods.

Born from the Netherworld, the Dark Demon was the root of all evil thoughts, the order of darkness; its Life Essence originated from the eerie.

"What’s wrong, Sister?" An asked cautiously, seeing Guang Xiaoyu stop.

"My senior brother isn’t here," Guang Xiaoyu said, her eyes darting around.

"Your senior brother is such a scoundrel, does it matter whether he’s here or not? Oh, oh, I mean, he’s too far away to come," An quickly explained, secretly wiping away a cold sweat.

Her senior brother had been present when she fused with Desolation.

He had also been there when she suppressed the Green Demon.

Now that she was about to face an ancient Heavenly Demon, to be honest... no matter how strong her mental fortitude as a Demon Emperor was, she felt a little panicked right now.

But she could manage.

Guang Xiaoyu said seriously, "Stay calm. I have all the information on the Dark Demon."

An replied, "Sister, I’m very calm."

Guang Xiaoyu said, "Don’t panic. I will definitely slay the Dark Demon." She didn’t know if she was comforting herself or An.

KEKEKE!

A sinister cackle came from deep within the Ancient City, followed by a tiny figure moving quickly, rushing towards them.

It arrived shortly—a monkey, skeletal in appearance, with deep-set eyes that looked utterly hollow, its mouth agape in a snarl.

It was very fast, flitting from one place to another in an instant—eaves, walls, the Long Street, dry wells—its movements incredibly agile.

Guang Xiaoyu tensed, sensing an unusual energy fluctuation.

KEKEKE...

The little monkey moved quickly, its smile bizarre.

...

It’s mocking me.

It’s mocking a Demon Emperor.

That damned monkey!

Guang Xiaoyu suddenly became incensed and was ready to suppress it.

Just then, the monkey pulled out a huge bundle from nowhere, and from inside came An’s voice, "Sister, save me!"

Guang Xiaoyu was bewildered.

She had been standing right here. The little monkey was hopping around nearby. So how did An end up in its grasp?

Before Guang Xiaoyu could regain her composure, the monkey, with the huge bundle on its back, proceeded towards the depths of the city.

Damn it!

Guang Xiaoyu was furious, her eyes wide. To dare abduct someone right under this Emperor’s nose! Such audacity!

Without wasting words, she quickly followed.

She crossed several Long Streets. After about ten minutes, the little monkey finally stopped, glanced back at her, and quickly darted into a building.

It was an ancestral hall. On the plaque at the front were written the words "Three-Eyed God" in bold, vigorous strokes, filled with an ancient Daoist charm.

Further inside, there was a statue.

Its base was made of Original Stone, upon which lay a lifelike tiger, large in size with vibrant features, as if it were not a lifeless object but a living tiger.

It seemed merely to be sleeping, except for a vertical crack that split the center of its forehead.

Seeing that crack, Guang Xiaoyu felt an uneasy premonition; she thought of the plaque at the entrance of the hall—Three-Eyed God.

WHOOSH!

A tremendous pressure poured down.

The eye in the center of its forehead suddenly snapped open. Its strange pupil flashed with a bewitching light, resembling a bottomless abyss where dark vortexes swirled. It felt as if the Divine Soul of anyone it stared at would be sucked in.

Guang Xiaoyu was horrified, her expression changing drastically. She quickly gathered her Divine Sense to resist. "How dare you!" she shouted angrily...

From the depths of her Sea of Consciousness, a Heavenly Demon emerged. He was robust and commanding, his oppressive aura suppressed all directions, and layers of black mist coiled around his body, exuding an air of mystery.

It was the Green Demon.

「At that moment!」

A group of powerhouses from the Liu Family of East Town had also arrived deep within the Secret Realm.

Of course, their luck was not good. They had neither Ru Shuang nor the sheepskin map and were relying solely on fortune.

By the time the group arrived, more than half of them had died.

The journey was arduous.

But it was an order from their superiors, and they dared not defy it.

"Rumor has it that a Big Shot was buried here, leaving behind a powerful legacy and many profound resources," a man in a black robe murmured, his eyes flickering. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"This place is not to be entered lightly. It is a Life Prohibited Zone within the Secret Realm. Anyone who steps in here is, without exception, buried in its depths. Perhaps... that little girl won’t be coming back."

"This is the mission: find them, dead or alive," a somewhat older man uttered, his tone even but filled with reluctance and solemnity.

To find the Daughter of the Moon God, they had paid too heavy a price, losing many comrades.

Entering this place now was sure to be almost certainly fatal!

Everyone was sighing. Only Liu Qin, their leader, remained silent, his deep eyes intently staring into the depths of the mist.

No one knew what he was thinking.

Suddenly, screams echoed out.

They rushed swiftly in that direction.

It was that group of young people from Desert City.

Found them! Liu Qin thought, his eyes cold. Upon seeing the figures, he had assumed they had found Guang Xiaoyu and An, but he hadn’t expected to see only a few people; the two girls weren’t among them.

Behind them were three to five Ancient Ferocious Beasts, each one like a small mountain, their bodies pitch-black and wreathed in mist.

Their bizarre eyes were filled with chilling coldness.

The beasts spat out black mist from their mouths, which spread like living tendrils swiftly towards the youths.

The youths were so frightened their faces turned pale. From a distance, they looked towards Liu Qin and his group, shouting, "Save us!"

"Sir! This is a manifestation of the Eerie from the darkness," the black-robed man beside Liu Qin said, aghast. It was the first time he had seen the "Eerie" manifest, and he hadn’t expected it to be so tangible.

His companions who heard this also retreated a few steps, their expressions wary, ready to flee at Liu Qin’s command.

They would definitely not rescue them.

But Liu Qin remained expressionless and did not give an order to retreat. Instead, he said, "They were traveling with the Daughter of the Moon God. Question them. Perhaps we can find out the whereabouts of that little girl."

The men exchanged uneasy glances.

「Not long after...」

Jiang Hao and his group arrived. When he clearly saw Liu Qin’s face, he cried out in delight, "Liu, Brother Liu, it’s me!"

"Save us!"

"AAAAH!" the others also screamed, seeing Liu Qin and his men like drowning victims grasping at a lifeline.
