Chapter 116 Hong De And His Three Protectors Spat Out Blood!
[The battle between the Holy Maiden and Hong De continued as both of them were expending their astral energy. The Holy Maiden seemed to have been able to fight on par with Hong De but you know that wasn't the case.]
[The Holy Maiden's star artifact was indeed higher in grade than Hong De's divine wind sword star artifact. It was also the reason why she could fight evenly with Hong De despite Hong De's star cultivation base level being higher than hers.]
[However, it only seemed that the Holy Maiden was fighting with Hong De equally but that wasn't truly the case. Due to Hong De's level being higher than the Holy Maiden, Hong De possessed far greater astral energy in his star pathways than the Holy Maiden.]
[In other words, even if the Holy Maiden and Hong De were even in strength, Hong De could last longer in this battle and that alone was enough for him to defeat the Holy Maiden. The Holy Maiden's defeat was inevitable and those Revered Constellation powerhouses who protected the Holy Maiden knew about that as well.]
[Because of that, those protectors of the Holy Maiden were ready to interfere in the battle and were looking for an opportunity to do so. But even that was a difficult thing to do especially when the protectors of Hong De were also observing their every move.]
[The Holy Maiden and Hong De continued their battle. Due to the commotion they caused in their battle, the citizens had already evacuated. On the other hand, the Holy Maiden had lured Hong De away from the passed-out citizens who had formed a crowd before.]
[The Holy Maiden was well aware of the power generated from her battle with Hong De. Hong De was wantonly attacking her with little to no care about the passersby or the buildings while the Holy Maiden did her best to prevent the citizens from being hurt.]
[After all, just one attack from a Star Saint was enough to destroy more than a building, let alone the life of a normal human. As the Holy Maiden of the Star Hall, she didn't want the citizens of the Star City suffering due to her.]
[Hong De kept on attacking the Holy Maiden wildly as countless slashes of his divine wind sword assaulted the Holy Maiden. There were even sharp wind blades generated from every slash of Hong De's divine wind sword which troubled the Holy Maiden since she could barely have enough space to dodge not only Hong De's sword attacks but also his wind blades.]
[Hong De didn't use too many flashy attacks but instead, he overpowered the Holy Maiden through his swordsmanship. He didn't even use his divine wind sword as a magic wand and only used the sharp wind blades to give himself an advantage over the Holy Maiden. Because of that, Hong De didn't expend that much astral energy.]
[On the other hand, the Holy Maiden was already feeling exhausted as she was forced to block almost all of Hong De's attacks. After all, she wasn't fast and agile enough to dodge Hong De's attacks that kept on assaulting her.]
[The sharp wind blades had caused some minor wounds on the Holy Maiden's body but what made Hong De exhilarated was when his continuous sword attacks had caused cuts on the Holy Maiden's clothes.]
[Because of that, the milky white skin of the Holy Maiden was seen through the cuts on her clothes. Even her cleavage was almost exposed and that made Hong De feel more lustful.]
[Wanting to see more of the Holy Maiden's body and with the plan to destroy her clothes, Hong De no longer saved his astral energy and immediately performed several sharp tornadoes and launched them towards the Holy Maiden, "Divine Wind Tornado!"]
[Reacting to Hong De's wind tornadoes, the Holy Maiden gritted her teeth and was forced to use the remaining astral energy in her star pathways. "Holy Angelic Shield!"]
[The six pairs of angel wings on the Holy Maiden's back became covered in holy light. Afterward, those angel wings started to become more transparent and the Holy Maiden used it to fly slightly above ground.]
[Those angel wings immediately covered the Holy Maiden like a cocoon. As if that wasn't enough, a layer of holy light that was like a spherical shield was formed around the cocoon, granting the Holy Maiden two layers of defense.]
[All of those happened in under a second so by the time the wind tornadoes almost reached the Holy Maiden, the Holy Maiden had already finished her preparations and had successfully set up the holy angelic shield.]
[Several wind tornadoes collided with the holy angelic shield. However, those wind tornadoes could only destroy the outer layer of holy light but could barely put a dent in the angel wings that covered the Holy Maiden.]
[Hong De panted in mild exhaustion as he wiped the sweat on his forehead. On the other hand, the Holy Maiden who had come out of the holy angelic shield felt exhausted and drained out.]
[The Holy Maiden barely had any astral energy left in her star pathways which was also the reason why she deactivated the holy angelic shield as soon as she successfully defended herself from Hong De's wind tornadoes.]
[Hong De still has 30% of his astral energy while the Holy Maiden only has 5% left. From that alone, the victor was already decided and the clothes on the Holy Maiden's body were barely enough to cover her private parts. That made Hong De even more aggressive as he wanted to strip the Holy Maiden naked and rape her!]
[However, his lust and intentions were already detected by the protectors of the Holy Maiden so they immediately left their hiding place and went to prevent Hong De's actions!]
[But before they could even reach Hong De, the protectors of Hong De also came out and stopped the Holy Maiden's protectors. There were three Revered Constellation protectors from each side so there were six Revered Constellations in total who were neutralizing each other.]
[The Holy Maiden even became more desperate since she realized that even if she was in Star City and her fight with Hong De had caused a commotion, reinforcements from the Star Hall seemed to be delayed.]
[But before Hong De could touch the Holy Maiden's body, a domineering coercive astral pressure of a Level 99 Revered Constellation fell on Hong De and his three Revered Constellation protectors! Due to the power of the astral pressure, Hong De and his three protectors spat out blood!]
[What followed after it was your aloof and 'enraged' voice, "Junior, you dare?!"]n-(o/.v//e--l.(b--I((n
