Chapter 200: Sister of the Moon and Son of the Lotus, Whoever Looks at Either Dies!

Lady Hua Lian sighed deeply and chased after Moon Fairy. "Gentlemen, please excuse me for a moment."

The crowd, witnessing this scene, felt a surge of frustration. The once-proud demon race, now cornered into defending themselves within the Ancestral Temple? Even the disappearance of a genius like Tian Lu left them huddled together, searching in vain.

Had it not been for the Gu Emperor's decision to lay low for the night, would they, with their strength, have been subjected to such humiliation? Not just the young ones, even the 108 Demon Saints felt a fiery anger burning in their chests.

Demons, with their beastly and fierce nature, killing was in their blood. Learning to hide and bide their time like humans was against their very nature, a challenging endeavor indeed.

The stronger the demon, the greater their patience. Meanwhile, countless low and middle-tier demons inside the Spirit Treasure Palace were already restless, bumping into everything, their low howls revealing their wild nature.

"Has Moon Fairy gained strength again?" a ghostly flame asked, taking on a human form. This was the Burning Saint, one of the 108 Demon Saints, incredibly close to the Demon Emperor himself.

"Perhaps the wind fire tribulation has solidified his cultivation," the Ape Saint suggested. As a beast demon, he was a general under the Eclipse Demon Emperor. The rise of Moon Fairy had also cast a favorable light on him, so he spoke of him with admiration.

"Realm solidification?" The demons gasped in surprise at the mention.

"It seems the beast lineage is about to produce a peerless genius."

"Congratulations are in order!"

"A fox with such talent is rare indeed!"

"If Yun Xiao is the shining new star of humanity, then Moon Fairy can certainly be the new star of the Demon Continent!"The roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin.

Everyone glanced at the Gu Emperor and sighed inwardly.

"Alas, tonight, these two stars won't have the chance to clash..."

They could feel it. Even without the ancestral power of the one billion Sword Cultivators, Moon Fairy seemed much stronger than Yun Xiao had been a few hours earlier.

"Moon Fairy and Tian Lu share a close bloodline. This little fox seems quite fond of Tian Lu. If nothing had happened to her, they would have been the talk of the Demon Continent," Ape Saint murmured quietly.

"What a pity," the Burning Saint shook his head, his eyes blazing with fire.

▬ι══????✧⚰️✧????══ι▬

"Lil Moon!" Lady Hua Lian caught up with Moon Fairy, grabbing his sleeve.

"Master, what's wrong?" Moon Fairy turned around, looking at the beautiful master he spent day and night with. His gaze was calm, a stark contrast to his earlier despair.

"You lied again!" Lady Hua Lian looked at him somberly, her eyes filled with complexity.

"I only lie to outsiders." Moon Fairy lowered his head slightly, gazing at her face. "But in front of you, I won't utter a single falsehood."

"Really?" Lady Hua Lian bit her lip. "Then tell me, do you like Tian Lu?"

"Who would care for a stray dog?" Moon Fairy smiled.

"Then why put on such an act?" Lady Hua Lian was puzzled.

"Master..." Moon Fairy held her shoulders earnestly. "I can't tell you now, but one day, I will confess everything."

"When will that be?" Lady Hua Lian asked.

Seeing this group under the protection of the Demon Continent's elite, their eyes burning with rage, Zhao Xiaotang had an idea. "I'll tease them a bit."

Despite his effeminate appearance, he was quite daring!

"Hahaha, brothers, this is hilarious!" Zhao Xiaotang suddenly laughed shrilly, bending over in glee to Chen Jin.

"What's so funny? Share with us," Stray Dog played along.

"I bet, the brothers from the Demon Continent are here for charity this time!" Zhao Xiaotang exclaimed.

"How so, brother?" Chen Jin asked.

"Just think about it. A few days ago, in our Spirit Treasure Palace's betting pool, millions of demons bet all they had on the top five in the odds. They bet fiercely, but guess what? They withdrew from the fight! The entire Demon Continent's geniuses graciously allowed our Yun Xiao to become the top Immortal. Isn't that a pure loss? Haha!"

Zhao Xiaotang's expression was exaggerated, his voice irritatingly loud, laughing so hard that his voice carried far.

"That's impossible!" Stray Dog shook his head in mock disbelief. "I heard the Demon Continent and Violet Sky Immortal Empire's withdrawal was fake news. Once the big battle starts, they might ambush and attack us! Think about it, those Demon Princes and Princesses of the Demon Continent are so proud, how could they be cowards? Wouldn't that be like giving away all the Demon Continent's money to us? Only our grandchildren would do something like that!"

"I also think it's impossible. I've seen those Demon Princes and Demon Princesses before; they strut around like they own the place. How could they be too scared to fight, running away with their tails between their legs? Even my grandma isn't that cowardly!" Chen Jin shook his head.

The three of them sang in harmony! The passing imperial youths, already burning with anger inside, felt their faces tear with rage at these words.

"Shut up!" the burly man with dark skin bellowed, his black fury erupting towards Chen Jin and his companions.

BOOM! Chen Jin and his group managed to block the attack with their magic, but they were left disheveled, rolling away in retreat. Their faces changed drastically as they hastily fled back to the Spirit Treasure Palace.

"He's strong! Terrifyingly strong! Such a fearsome demon, yet he's got less backbone than the droppings I pull!" Zhao Xiaotang exclaimed, clicking his tongue in amazement.

"Zip it! They're just pretending. They're definitely going to join the battle! Even my grandma wouldn't tolerate such humiliation," Chen Jin asserted confidently.

"How old is your grandma?" Stray Dog inquired.

"She's passed away!" Chen Jin chuckled. "Honestly, if someone insulted her to this extent, she'd climb right out of her grave. I can't believe that these Demon Princes and Princesses of the Demon Continent have less spine than ash. It's unbelievable!"

"Enough talk, let's count our money!" Zhao Xiaotang laughed.

BANG! As they spoke, the doors of the Spirit Treasure Palace slammed shut.

Outside, the group of imperial youths stared at the Spirit Treasure Palace, their hearts ablaze with fiery blood.

▬ι══????✧⚰️✧????══ι▬

Finally, midnight arrived.

Around the Ascension Gate, it was a sea of people, both humans and demons. The Demon Emperors, Demon Princes and Princess, and millions of demons were present as well.

Even those who were not participating in the battle were personally invited by the Supreme Marshal, with all manners of pleasantries exchanged, to come and observe.

Under the gaze of the masses, a young man in white descended from the sky, Sovereign Sword underfoot!
