The arrival of the silver-haired woman plunged the two Demon Kings into silence once more, turning the previously tense atmosphere into something strange.
Originally, they had planned to attack and injure the so-called White Tiger Holy King’s successor here, fulfilling the task assigned to them.
Whether they killed him or not wasn’t important. What mattered was making a move to frame the Lei Yu family.
Though they admitted they weren’t from the Lei Yu family, they kept their masks on.
With their true faces hidden, the Lei Yu family would be smeared with blame, unable to wash it away.
But at this critical moment, someone from the Lei Yu family showed up!
This meant their mission had failed, leaving them in a dilemma.
“Interesting!”
Mo Fan looked at the third figure who appeared, his tension gradually easing. A slight smile curved his lips, and the gloom on his face turned into amusement.
Even he hadn’t expected the Lei Yu family to arrive so promptly. Judging by the ugly expressions of the two Demon Kings and the domineering tone of this silver-haired woman, it wasn’t hard to glean some information.
This silver-haired woman likely had a significant background!
What puzzled Mo Fan, however, was that he hadn’t heard of a powerful female cultivator surnamed Bai in the Lei Yu family. There was a Demon King surnamed Bai who had married into the family, but clearly, this woman wasn’t him.
Could this female demon be related to that married-in Demon King?
“I’ve long heard that the Lei Yu family produced a heaven’s pride, but unfortunately, this pride is the daughter of a married-in Demon King, so she isn’t given much regard in the family.
If that’s the case, why not join us, young friend? It’s better to abandon the dark and embrace the light!”
After a long silence, one of the Demon Kings spoke with a cold sneer.
“Are you seeking death?”
The silver-haired woman’s face turned icy, her gaze chilling as she looked at the Demon King, her killing intent undisguised!
“You’re the one seeking death!”
“We only planned to deal with this toad demon and be done with it, but you insist on throwing yourself into the fray!”
The other Demon King spoke, his words laced with mockery. He sneered, “I’ve long heard that the Lei Yu family’s heaven’s pride is a first-generation Thorn Demon, one of the Twin Prides of Phoenix Cry Mountain. Today, I’d like to test your mettle!”
“Killing a first-generation Thorn Demon here would be no small blow to Wind Thunder Mountain, far more impactful than killing this toad demon!”
“Hey! Get on with the fight! I’ve got my seat ready to watch the show, so stop yapping!”
Mo Fan’s teasing voice rang out, drawing the attention of the three demons. They turned to see him sitting on a large rock he’d found somewhere, looking at them with excitement.
Hei Yi, standing beside Mo Fan, wore an odd expression, curiously sizing up the stunning woman on Phoenix Pass.
She had long heard of the Twin Prides of Phoenix Cry Mountain. Seeing one in person was truly striking, and she was eager to see just how formidable this pride was.
“Are you two sure you want to fight me?”
“If I uncover your true faces and report to the Holy King, even your ancestors won’t be able to protect you!”
The silver-haired woman’s brows furrowed slightly. She had no desire to fight these two Demon Kings.
“You’re too naive, thinking you can suppress us with the Fire Phoenix’s name?
Unfortunately, you don’t understand the Holy King’s intentions.
The Holy King seeks balance. As long as the core interests of Phoenix Cry Mountain’s demon territory aren’t harmed, she’ll turn a blind eye.
You, however, are insignificant. If we kill you, do you think Lei Yu Purple Lightning, that old thing, would start a feud with our backers over a married-in Demon King’s daughter?”
The silver-haired woman took a deep breath at these words, saying no more. She stepped forward, vanishing from her spot. When she reappeared, she was above one of the Demon Kings, her hand slamming down fiercely!
“Let’s see what this first-generation Thorn Demon is capable of!”
“A mere peak Demon General, thinking you can turn the tables?!”
The Demon King laughed, throwing a punch upward!
Boom!
Their fist and palm collided, unleashing a thunderous roar. An energy ripple spread from the impact, a visible storm of energy sweeping outward, kicking up dust and stones!
“So what if you’re a first-generation Thorn Demon?”
“The gap in cultivation is something you can never bridge!”
“Die!”
The other Demon King closed in, swinging a massive halberd downward at the silver-haired woman.
Yet, she didn’t dodge. Black spikes sprouted across her body, like a hedgehog’s armour, withstanding the Demon King’s strike!
“A Demon King, nothing more!”
The silver-haired woman snorted coldly, her hands forming seals. Her silver hair danced as black light wheels emerged, one after another.
“Divine Ability, Wind Thunder Thorn!”
With her icy voice, four massive black light wheels appeared, like four enormous black suns, trapping her and the two Demon Kings within!
“What a powerful figure!”
Even Mo Fan was moved by the sight.
This was the first time he’d seen a demon unleash four light wheels with Wind Thunder Thorn at once!
The four wheels completely blocked his view, making it impossible to see the battle within. Only a cold voice rang out:
“Divine Ability, Absolute Pierce!”
“Ah…!!”
“Damn it! How is this female demon so strong?!”
Screams of frustration echoed from the darkness, accompanied by increasingly intense booms.
Soon, the sky’s light wheels were torn apart. Two blood-soaked figures burst out, each summoning their demon cores and hurling them at the centre!
“Boom!!”
A deafening explosion rang out. A figure plummeted from the sky but quickly stabilised. Above her head, a golden scroll slowly unfurled.
The scroll’s appearance made the two Demon Kings’ faces change drastically. They exclaimed, “Demon Ancestor’s Decree!!”
Flee!
Without hesitation, the two Demon Kings fled into the distance.
“I respectfully request the ancestor’s might!”
The silver-haired woman spoke reverently. The golden scroll fully opened, unleashing boundless golden light!
Boom!!
In an instant, the sky shifted, dark clouds gathering. Two bolts of lightning shot from the scroll, vanishing in a flash!
As the lightning struck, the golden scroll burned to ashes.
The silver-haired woman frowned, glancing at where the two Demon Kings had fled. With a cold snort, she gracefully landed before Mo Fan and Hei Yi.
“I am Bai Shuang, sent by my ancestor to escort you. Follow me!”
Bai Shuang spoke calmly, her tone giving Mo Fan no hint of her current emotions.
