With the added addition of the other elders into this fight, Senior Wei himself was now forced to a standstill as well and couldnât do anything to them.
Making an involuntarily frown at this lack of progress, the girl in the back shoots a signaling look to the other subordinates under her charge.
The old men understood immediately. Drawing their weapons, they rushed over to join the fray.
âOld Eight, careful!â Fourth Elder tenses up at the sight of an enemy trying to attack his brother from behind. In his haste, the young man could only push the person aside to take his place.
Because of the exhaustion in his stamina and the duration of the fighting being dragged on, Fourth Elder honestly didnât have any ability to escape that strike anymore. Next thing he knew, a blade had pierced right through his back and out through his chest. Blood came gushing forward like a column as a result, causing everyoneâs eye to be dyed an anguish redâ¦.
Rushing the assailant like a mad dog at this sight, Third Elder fuses all his power into that palm strike to repel the enemy. Surprisingly, he actually managed to force the foe backwards with his attack to gain some space despite being the weaker one.
âOld Four!â Catching the injured one before he collapses, Third Elder could see the manâs robe had been stained red by blood. That ghostly white complexion didnât help the situation eithr.
âOoph!â Fourth Elder coughs hard in his attempt to speak, âIâm fine, donât worry about me. Hurry⦠hurry and take Old Madam Huang up to the Demon Mountain.â
Scanning the enemies blocking their path again, then back to themselves who are either injured or just barely holding on, Third Elder makes a bittersweet smile.?Looks like itâs too late nowâ¦
âHey!â The girl breaks through the crowd, her hands forking that waist like sheâs annoyed by the delay: âI will give you all another chance. Go bring your king to me and I will not take your life out of consideration that youâre going to be my slaves.â
âPaeee!â Spitting at her words, Eighth Elder scornfully yells out his response: âDream on! Our king will never become someoneâs pet or slave!â
âYouâre not him so how can you make the decision for him? Besides, how would you know he wouldnât want to be my pet?â The lady sneered in contempt, âSaying it nicely he is the king of this realm, but saying it badly then heâs no more than livestock. I, He Chu Chu, am of noble status. Him not being my pet is burying his talent, understand?â
But before anyone could say another word or respond to this outlandish statement, a dark and menacing voice promptly spread across the terrain from the sky, causing even the ground to shudder in fear.
âYou want to make me your pet?â
Greatly surprised, He Chu Chu swings upward immediately to find the source. To her astonishment, that purplish figure and the eye stunning face had left her speechless.
Sheâs already heard of how beautiful and handsome some of these demon beasts could become when taking on a human form, but not to this degreeâ¦.
What a shame, to think such a peerless face would belong to an animal!
Thereâs an unconcealed look of disappointment in the girlâs eye for sure, but when she saw the female floating there next to the man next, her eyes promptly narrowed into a slit of hostility.
The woman up there wore a long dress of red, stunning and beautiful, the pair was a match made in heaven. Needless to say, the second person was the mentioned âqueenâ and the one He Chu Chu intends to kill.
âMother,â Bai Xiachen carefully climbs up from the golden dragonâs back and points toward the girl below, âwhy does she want to make Baddie Father her pet? Iâm worried that if she does, Baddie Father would be so grossed out that he wonât be able to eat.â
