Chapter 556 Dangerous situation
The expressions on everyone's faces changed when they saw the group of demons standing in front of them. Only Emily had the same indifferent expression, but one could see the expression in her eyes was grave. Clearly, she could feel this demon group wasn't easy to deal with.
The demon group had nine purple skinned demons. The one standing in the middle looked like a young man. He was the one who had spoken a while ago.
With a playful smile on his face, he gazed at everyone and his smile continued to grow when he saw everyone in front of him had grave and fearful expressions. However,
"Hm?" He suddenly paused when he saw Emily didn't seem too afraid. But a moment later, he chuckled and appeared in front of Emily with a gust of wind. Before she could even blink, he was holding Emily's hand.
Emily's gaze narrowed and her aura grew fiercer, but she didn't try to pull her hand back and only continued to stare at him.
Seeing this, the demon grew even more interested. Smiling, he said, "Hello beautiful, I'm Marsh Purplewind from the Purplewind demon tribe. You are a very interesting girl. So, what do you think of my offer?"
Shasha, Kamesh, and others focused their attention on Marsh, their magic spells ready to kill. Although they knew he was way stronger than any demon they had encountered before, they showed no fear and were just waiting for Emily to put some distance between them so they could rain down their attacks on him.
"You want me to submit... to you?" Emily asked, her voice unusually calm.
"That's right." Marsh nodded. "If you submit to me, I'll help you complete your incomplete wind spirit physique."
Hearing this, Emily's eyes flashed. "You can tell what my physique is?"
Marsh revealed a smiled. "You don't have to worry. Your concealment spell hasn't lost its effect. The only reason I can tell you have a wind spirit physique is because my physique is also a wind spirit physique."
"No wonder." Emily nodded in understanding. Whoosh!
Then suddenly, her sword appeared in her other hand, which she slashed toward his neck at a blindingly fast speed.
"Tch! How violent!" Marsh clicked his tongue when he saw her attack. Just when the sword was about to cut through his neck, he disappeared and appeared in front of his group. Still smiling, he asked, "So, I take it as your refusal?" Emily looked at him as he was a clown, which made Marsh's lips twitch. A female demon beside him spoke up at this moment, "Young lord, since you fancy her, just force her to submit. There is no need to ask for her opinion on the matter." Marsh shook his head and wrapped his arm around the female demon's slim waist. "You are wrong, little Jun. I have to ask her because, unfortunately, I can't force her to submit."
The demoness and other demons behind them revealed surprised expressions when they heard this and their gazes were no longer casual when they glanced at Emily.
"Young lord... you mean she is stronger than you?" The demoness, little Jun, asked, an incredulous expression on her face and her big, round eyes wide open.
Slash!
However, before it could reach him, a silver light flashed and destroyed the beam. The elf sighed in relief when he saw this and glanced at Emily, who had destroyed the attack with gratitude in his eyes.
Nule's face darkened when he saw his attack being interrupted and roared in anger, "You bitch! You dare block..."
Whoosh!
However, before he could finish his sentence, Emily disappeared and appeared in front of him before stabbing her sword at his head.
"What a girl..." The corner of Marsh's lips curled up. He was getting more and more interested in her. Unfortunately, she rejected his offer.
He then glanced at the horned demon group and thought. 'Maybe they will help me change her mind.'
If he could absorb Emily's wind spirit essence, his wind spirit physique would have a high chance to evolve and become stronger. That's why he was so interested in making her submit. Once she submitted, he would ensure wouldn't be able to detonate her physique. After that, he could slowly extract her essence.
Nule stared at Emily with a sneer on his face, but didn't move. Clang!
Just when the sword was about to stab into his head, an older demon standing beside him reached out and slapped it away. He then grabbed at her neck.
Emily's eyes narrowed at this. She could feel this demon was a lot stronger than her. Maybe he was a mid-high or even a peak four-stage demon, but she didn't panic. Changing her grip, she poured her elemental mana into the sword and slashed horizontally.
Bang!
Her sword struck the palm but only managed to stop it.
"Heng!" The demon snorted in displeasure when he saw this. Clenching his palm into a fist, he covered it with demonic energy and punched out.
"Watch out!" Shasha and Kamesh shouted out in alarm when they saw this. They could feel this old demon was probably in the five-star realm. Even a casual punch of such a being could instantly kill anyone in the lower stages of the four-star realm, while Emily was just a high-stage three-star mage. Furthermore, this wasn't a casual punch, since he had used his demonic energy.
BANG!!
A loud bang resounded, and a figure was sent flying.
