Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress-Chapter 153
Chapter 153 - I Still Quite Like Our Little Miss!!
"Hmph, even with celestial artifacts, this is the extent of your power."
Dao Xian Shuimiao glanced disdainfully at Meng Niu and Bai Yuan, who were sent flying and severely injured on the ground.
The crowd in the Nanli Academy plaza, witnessing Dao Xian Shuimiao’s strength, unconsciously moved further away from her and Cai Se.
They didn’t know who Dao Xian Shuimiao was or when she had infiltrated the academy. They only knew that she seemed to want to take the child from Cai Se.
And that child was none other than Luo Hongye, the one who had recently shocked the world with her unparalleled talent.
Could it be that these immortals descended to the mortal realm specifically to capture this child...?
The crowd began to have their suspicions.
Most of them knew they couldn’t possibly contend with the Heavenly Realm, let alone offend immortals, so they retreated and avoided the area.
In the vast plaza, only Cai Se, protecting Luo Hongye, stood facing Dao Xian Shuimiao. Everyone else had already retreated to the edges.
"So, have you decided whether to hand over the child to me?"
Dao Xian Shuimiao looked at Cai Se coldly with an arrogant expression, extending her hand once again and demanding an answer.
"My answer remains the same!"
"I will never hand over our little miss to you!"
Cai Se retorted sternly, her eyes scanning the surroundings.
Why haven’t the Shadow Guards who are usually lurking around the young miss appeared...!
And Lady Yue isn’t by the young miss’s side today either...
Most of the demons hiding in the city have been drawn to the other side...
Otherwise, we wouldn’t let her act so arrogantly!
She was definitely no match for Dao Xian Shuimiao. All she could do was try to buy some time...
"Celestial Art - Thousand Rains!"
Dao Xian Shuimiao waved her hand gently, and the water sphere in front of her shot out thousands of water droplets!
Cai Se braced herself, protecting Luo Hongye behind her from harm while swinging her snake sword to deflect the attacks.
However, she simply couldn’t block such a dense barrage of water droplets.
Each water droplet was like a sharp sword, easily piercing through her body!
Even the people standing behind Cai Se, watching, were caught in the attack, their screams filling the air as casualties mounted.
"Cough... huff... huff..."
When the water droplets finally stopped, Cai Se was bleeding from her mouth, gasping for air, her body swaying. She could only support herself by thrusting her snake sword into the ground.
Her body was riddled with wounds, blood staining her clothes...
"Wuuu, Sister Cai..."
Luo Hongye, tears welling up in her eyes, tugged at Cai Se’s clothes and called out softly.
Cai Se turned her head and looked at Luo Hongye at her feet, forcing a weak smile. Then, she gritted her teeth and glared at Dao Xian Shuimiao.
"Still not giving up..."
Seeing Cai Se’s stubborn resistance, Dao Xian Shuimiao frowned and flicked her fingers once more.
"Celestial Art - Water Dragon’s Chant!"
Two water droplets flew out, transforming into two giant dragons in mid-air, roaring as they lunged towards Cai Se!
At this point, Cai Se was practically defenseless!
"ROAR!!"
Just as the two water dragons were about to devour Cai Se with their gaping maws, a furious roar echoed. Meng Niu and Bai Yuan, revealing their half-demon forms, shielded Cai Se and Luo Hongye with their massive bodies!
The giant water dragons bit into their shoulders.
Meng Niu and Bai Yuan, transformed into a Chaotic Demonic Bull and a Titan Ape, endured the bloody wounds and forcefully tore the two water dragons apart!
"Demons! They’re demons!"
"Aren’t those the Demon Kings from the Demonic Beast Forest?!"
"Such terrifying power...!"
The people who had flooded into Nanli Academy were stunned by the imposing presence of Meng Niu and Bai Yuan.
How did the Demon Kings from the Demonic Beast Forest end up here...?
Su Yi also hadn’t expected that Cai Se and the other two, who usually followed Luo Hongye around, were actually the Demon Kings from the Demonic Beast Forest...!
She hadn’t expected that Cai Se and the other two, with their Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivation, would be so utterly powerless against Dao Xian Shuimiao.
"With your cultivation and ancient bloodlines, you’ve achieved remarkable feats in the mortal realm."
"In the future, you could even return to the Demon Realm and continue your cultivation. Your path to immortality is bright. Why throw your lives away here?"
Seeing her Water Dragon Celestial Art torn apart, Dao Xian Shuimiao was surprised but didn’t take it to heart.
Meng Niu and the other two were already at their limits.
"I’d like to leave... but I don’t dare..."
"Compared to you, I’m more afraid of that man..."
Meng Niu mumbled softly with a mournful expression.
Every time he thought of Ning Yechen, his legs would turn to jelly.
Besides, he quite liked his current life.
Meng Niu glanced at Luo Hongye, who was hiding behind Cai Se’s legs.
Even after seeing Meng Niu and Bai Yuan’s true demonic forms, Luo Hongye wasn’t afraid.
She knew they were protecting her and looked at them with concern on her little face.
Meng Niu turned his head, once again raising the crimson battleaxe that had grown along with his body. He roared at Dao Xian Shuimiao,
"And also, I still quite like our little miss!!"
"It’s the first time someone has called me ’Big Brother’!"
"If you want to take the little miss away, I won’t allow it!"
Bai Yuan and Cai Se looked at Meng Niu in surprise, then smiled warmly.
"I’m also very afraid of that man and Lady Yue..."
"So, if you want to take the little miss, you’ll have to kill us first!"
Bai Yuan pounded his chest and roared at Dao Xian Shuimiao, his mouth full of sharp fangs.
Su Yi stomped her foot and, under everyone’s astonished gazes, landed beside Meng Niu and Bai Yuan, her sword pointed at Dao Xian Shuimiao.
The others from Nanli Academy exclaimed in shock,
"Senior Sister Su Yi, is she, is she crazy...?!"
"That’s a powerful being from the Heavenly Realm!"
"Isn’t she seeking death?!"
"Yeah, there’s no need to throw your life away for the sake of the Demon Clan!"
Su Yi heard the discussions around her. Her expression remained firm, and she retorted without turning back,
"Everyone, I’m not helping the Demon Clan. I’m protecting my Nanli Academy, protecting my students!"
"This child is a student of Nanli Academy. How can I tolerate someone taking her away as they please!"
"Moreover, she has already killed so many people from our Nanli Academy!"
Although their time together had been short, Su Yi genuinely liked the sensible, well-behaved, and adorable Luo Hongye.
Dao Xian Shuimiao, despite being from the Heavenly Realm, showed no regard for human lives. She was completely different from the benevolent immortals depicted in legends, who were supposed to save the world and uphold justice!
In that case, she would rather stand with Meng Niu and the others, even if it meant risking her life to protect Luo Hongye! freeweɓnovel~cѳm
Meng Niu and the others were surprised. They hadn’t expected Su Yi, with her mere Heaven Human Realm cultivation, to stand up and confront Dao Xian Shuimiao...
"Little bug, aren’t you afraid of death?"
Meng Niu looked down at Su Yi and asked.
Su Yi glanced up at Meng Niu, her expression resolute, and said,
"My name is not ’little bug.’ It’s Su Yi."
"Of course, I’m afraid of death..."
"But I’m even more afraid of not upholding the principles I believe in!"
The other members of Nanli Academy looked at each other, hesitant.
Soon, another person joined Su Yi’s side.
It was Qi Yuan, who had recently joined Nanli Academy.
"My Qi family has received a lot of help from Brother Ning and Sister Luo!"
"I won’t allow anyone to take Little Ye Ye away either!"
Seeing this, the other members of Nanli Academy also stepped forward, standing behind Meng Niu and the others.
If even a new apprentice disciple was willing to stand up, what reason did they have to
cower in the back?!
