God of Pets-Chapter 397: Nine Heavens Resentful Demon Star
Jin Taohua controlled her sword to fly into the sky, leaving Abyss City and reaching above the Cloud Sea.
Feng Qiancheng walked in mid-air, as if there was an invisible staircase, and followed Jin Taohua to the Cloud Sea.
"Jin Taohua, with such abilities and means, why not join forces with our Wind Demon City to annex Cangwu Grotto Heaven and jointly achieve great things?" Feng Qiancheng stood with hands behind his back, his white hair flowing in the wind. He seemed gentle and modest, like a sage, without a trace of a demon’s ferocious brutality.
"I only join hands with humans. Can demons be considered humans?" Jin Taohua’s words seemed as sharp as ever.
Feng Qiancheng was not at all angry, looking at Jin Taohua sincerely, "Demons are indeed brutal and easily provoke ferocity, but aren’t they more human compared to those who appear righteous but are full of hidden evil deeds?"
"You are a demon with brains," Jin Taohua glanced at him and said, "Feigning righteousness means they still fear the Dao, afraid of rules, and must hide themselves. Being secretly lecherous shows they dare not openly break the law. These people are hateful, but at least they have some reverence for the rules."
"But you demons have no respect for rules. You kill without hesitation, regardless of any regulations. Which do you think is more dangerous?"
"Aren’t you like us demons, killing without regard for any rules, doing everything as you please? You’ve killed more people than demons have. If we’re talking about danger, aren’t you more dangerous than us demons?" Feng Qiancheng retorted calmly.
Jin Taohua laughed, "Precisely because I myself don’t abide by the rules, I don’t like others having the same privilege as me. It makes me feel less special. I still like to feel unique."
"It seems the battle between you and me is inevitable." Feng Qiancheng’s eyes gradually sharpened, "If you lose, I won’t take your life. I just want you to join Wind Demon City to seize Cangwu Grotto Heaven together and rule the world with me."
"Since when did demons become so merciful?" Jin Taohua said contemptuously.
Feng Qiancheng was indifferent, only saying to himself, "After we achieve our great cause, I’ll be the king of Cangwu Grotto Heaven, and you can be its queen. With our talents and aptitudes, we can surely produce stronger heirs..."
"You’re dead." Jin Taohua’s eyes turned fierce. The Peach Blossom Sword shot through the air, turning into a Sword Rainbow to pierce through Feng Qiancheng.
Feng Qiancheng, this time without summoning a pet, backhanded a shiny silver hook into existence.
The silver hook soared into the sky, clashing with the Peach Blossom Sword.
Indestructible, the Peach Blossom Sword, despite any Secret Treasure, could not break the silver hook, which remained unscathed.
"Nine Heavens Resentment Demon Hooks... Your Celestial Destiny Star is Nine Heavens Resentful Demon Star... Your Celestial Duty is Nine Heavens Resentment Demon Monarch..." Seeing that hook, Jin Taohua’s expression grew solemn.
Nine Heavens Resentful Demon Star is known as one of the top ten Celestial Destiny Demon Stars.
Its corresponding Celestial Duty is the Nine Heavens Resentment Demon Monarch, which can provide a cultivator with a 2.0 Primordial Base and terrifying Celestial Duty bonuses.
Historically, each cultivator possessing the Nine Heavens Resentful Demon Star caused a significant uproar.
Because the Celestial Duty of the Nine Heavens Resentment Demon Monarch possesses a terrifying authority that can sever the connection between Secret Treasures and their owners.
Combining this with the Celestial Destiny Secret Treasure, the Nine Heavens Resentment Demon Hooks, the Nine Heavens Resentment Demon Monarch can lock down others’ Secret Treasures, even the Celestial Destiny Secret Treasures.
Fortunately, the Lifebound Star, Nine Heavens Resentful Demon Star, rarely appears. Among the cultivators of the Divine Land and various Secret Realms, sometimes even ten years may pass without someone obtaining the Nine Heavens Resentful Demon Star as their Celestial Destiny Star.
No one expected this demon to possess the Nine Heavens Demon Hatred Demon Star as his Celestial Destiny Star.
At this moment, Jin Taohua’s Celestial Destiny Secret Treasure, the Peach Blossom Sword, was locked by the Nine Heavens Resentment Demon Hooks, unable to break free. One sword and one hook flew and flashed across the sky and Cloud Sea, yet remained entangled and inseparable.
Jin Taohua could sense that the bond between her and the Peach Blossom Sword was weakening.
"Indeed, since you know of the Nine Heavens Resentment Demon Star, you should be aware of its powers and Celestial Duty. It’s still not too late to agree to cooperate with me now." Feng Qiancheng said calmly.
"The Resentment Demon Star and the Resentment Demon Hooks cannot defeat me, Jin Taohua." Jin Taohua’s heart stirred, and a pink peach blossom fairy mask appeared on her face, both cheerful and angry.
With the appearance of the mask, peach blossom petals, seemingly from nowhere, scattered and landed on her body.
Where the peach blossoms passed, her originally purple armor turned into a pink Immortal Robe, instantly altering Jin Taohua’s aura, as if transforming her from a demon empress to a Flying Fairy.
This transformation effect was comparable to the transformation of a magical girl.
However, because of the peach blossom mask covering her face, Jin Taohua’s beauty was hidden, making her less alluring than before.
Activating her Celestial Duty, Jin Taohua’s mind moved, and the Peach Blossom Sword dispersed into petals scattering away, shaking off the Resentment Demon Hooks’ lock.
The petals flew to Jin Taohua’s hand and regrouped into the Peach Blossom Sword.
Without a word, like a Flying Fairy, Jin Taohua lifted her sword to stab towards Feng Qiancheng.
Clang!
The demon hook in Feng Qiancheng’s hand blocked the Peach Blossom Sword, and a black demon monarch visage appeared on his face, his body clad in black Demon Armor.
A sword and a hook continuously clashed in the Cloud Sea, shattering the clouds, with sword lights breaking apart, rendering sun and moon dim.
Chen Guan, within the Blood Spirit Banner, felt somewhat anxious.
That demon dared to come alone to find Jin Taohua, he must be prepared; whether Jin Taohua can win is hard to say.
"If Jin Taohua loses and the Blood Spirit Banner is taken by the demon, will I still receive such treatment?" Chen Guan thought the situation was precarious.
Should Jin Taohua use the Blood Spirit Banner desperately, he would surely become the primary target.
Anyone familiar with the battle outside Abyss City knows his importance. If Jin Taohua uses the Blood Spirit Banner and he goes out to command the Blood Spirit Army, the demon’s first attack target must be him.
"No time for concerns; better secure this Secret Skill first." Chen Guan dashed towards the bleeding cow head, desperately devouring its energy.
Once the cow head is fully devoured, he could obtain the second Sixth Sense Secret Skill.
At that time, even in case of unexpected events, it wouldn’t be wasted effort.
"Not good..." While devouring the cow head’s energy, Chen Guan suddenly saw a spatial vortex appear in the sky, sucking up the Blood Spirits from the Sea of Blood.
In a one-on-one situation, Jin Taohua actually used the Blood Spirit Banner, a secret treasure unsuited for solitary battles, indicating the situation was very dire.
Chen Guan gritted his teeth, risking bodily explosion by directly swallowing the cow head whole, regardless of digestion, preferring explosion over missing the opportunity.
He had a premonition that this battle would be very challenging.
