Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 578: I Will Join the Demon Race to Slay Her

A little girl in her early teens was clamoring to slay a great demon like Crimson Mulberry.

Normal?

Not normal!

The Alliance experts present all thought she had gone mad.

Was there no one left in the Wuji Sect? To actually send a little girl like her here.

She was clearly here to die!

But Zi Ji was so serious, her pure, wide eyes filled with sincerity, the corners of her mouth turned up with excitement.

HAHAHA!

The woman in dazzling red robes, as lovely as a flower, couldn't help but burst into laughter. She shared the same sentiment as the Alliance experts.

Amusing, truly amusing.

She had never expected Chen Pingping's little junior sister to be so amusing.

Crimson Mulberry lowered her eyes, smiled, and said, "Do you really want to kill me?"

Zi Ji nodded. "Yes."

"Then, do you want to make your move now?" Crimson Mulberry inquired. "Or wait a little longer?"

"Now!" she declared, eyes wide, still very serious.

Those who knew Zi Ji knew that she never lied. This was a good trait; her soul had not been tainted by Chen Pingping and Guang Xiaoyu, remaining pure and flawless.

WHOOSH WHOOSH!

Suddenly, a fierce wind blew, stirring up a swirl of yellow sand, causing everyone to instinctively squint their eyes...

The young girl standing upon the land also made her move at this moment.

She acted as soon as she spoke, decisively and cleanly.

Her slender figure shot forward. Then, with a wave of her hands, a fierce wind erupted, forming a giant vortex.

Within it, a current of qi coalesced into a Sword Body.

Then a vague silhouette emerged, wielding the Sword Body, cleaving towards the tall mountain ahead.

There were no Spirit Qi fluctuations, no Power of Heaven and Earth. It was a pure strike, yet it burst forth with power like molten lava—fierce and unstoppable.

In the span of just two breaths, the mountain was shattered.

More terrifyingly, the whirlwind enveloped a large area of the battlefield. It formed a powerful domain, Sealing Heaven and Earth, preventing Crimson Mulberry from drawing upon the ambient Power of Heaven and Earth.

She was somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected this little girl before her to be a Saint Realm expert.

Remarkable.

She had underestimated her.

But her surprise was fleeting. Calmness quickly returned as her lips curled upward. She employed the Devouring God Skill, attempting to devour it.

However, Zi Ji's Controlling Qi Skill was clearly far more powerful, firmly suppressing Crimson Mulberry's attempt to devour.

The small figure took another step forward, her qi manifesting as a sword.

Sword shadows filled the sky, overwhelming everything.

In that instant, Zi Ji's slender back seemed to grow immense, like a towering, majestic mountain.

She kept attacking, determined to slay Crimson Mulberry.

The latter finally sensed something was amiss, her expression turning to shock. "You..."

BANG!

The airflow cascaded down, vast and powerful, engulfing Crimson Mulberry entirely. The attack was so devastatingly swift and destructive that it gave her no chance to resist, slaying her directly.

Unfortunately, this Crimson Mulberry was not her true body, merely a clone.

Zi Ji was stunned for a moment. "You're very cunning."

HEH HEH!

From Crimson Mulberry's fading figure came a laugh. "I'll remember you."

Soon, tranquility returned to the land, leaving only a shattered mountain, its dust mingling with the yellow sand.

The stunning figure in red had long since vanished without a trace.

The Alliance experts behind them were all stunned, their faces etched with disbelief.

"Is she Chen Pingping's junior sister?"

"This?"

"She even managed to injure Crimson Mulberry."

"That was her clone... Even though it wasn't her true body, it still possessed formidable combat strength."

"So strong..."

The Alliance experts began to truly acknowledge Zi Ji.

The Wuji Sect Saint who had spoken up for Zi Ji earlier couldn't help but mutter, "See? I told you she was very strong, but none of you believed me!"

He had personally witnessed Zi Ji in action several times, including when she slew the Star Sea experts.

This girl is no ordinary cultivator! Her only flaw, perhaps, is her intelligence.

"Jiang..." Zi Ji turned. "That person is very powerful."

"Yes!" Jiang Ni'er exhaled deeply.

"I will go to the Demon Race's territory and slay her," Zi Ji declared, her expression serious.

The Alliance experts: "???"

Jiang Ni'er smiled. "Okay..." She paused, then added, "but not now."

They had just arrived at the border, and everything here was unfamiliar, especially the Demon Race and their terrifying lands.

Rushing in recklessly would likely lead to trouble.

She needed to gather more information.

Zi Ji nodded and strode toward the rubble of the shattered mountain. She examined it closely, as if tracking something, then glanced at the spot where Crimson Mulberry had dissipated. Finally, she uttered two words: "Not it."

The Clone Skill Crimson Mulberry practices isn't the same as Elder Brother's. They're different. The One Qi Turns into Three Clarities technique is clearly superior; the clones Elder Brother manifests possess combat power almost equal to his true body. Crimson Mulberry's clone did not.

Two minutes later, she suddenly fixed her gaze on a distant point, her large, pure eyes seeming to see something.

「High in the void...」

The smile on the red-robed woman's face froze.

Even from hundreds of miles away, that little girl from the Human Clan actually saw me? And... she followed the traces of my clone's dissipation to pinpoint my actual location?

Zi Ji, was it? So that was Zi Ji.

Crimson Mulberry lowered her eyes and smiled faintly. She let out a soft breath and said, "He didn't come."

Behind her stood three great demons: one from the Qin Clan, one from the Mu Clan, and one from the Snake Demon Clan.

Among these three, the Mu Clan were an ancient race, having existed for countless years; their true form was the Qiongqi.

The Qin Family were of the Baize lineage, and they were also the sole Emperor Clan in the Northern Border, possessing an invincible Demon Emperor. Thus, they controlled the entire Northern Border.

Of course, the expert from the Qin Clan who had come was not a core member of the family, merely a great demon from its periphery.

Although he possessed some strength, his bloodline was not pure enough for him to be considered part of the inner family.

The Snake Demon Clan had also once produced a Demon Emperor, leaving behind an astonishing Bloodline Power. However, as ages passed, this bloodline gradually thinned in the river of time, with truly astounding geniuses emerging only rarely.

Nevertheless, the Snake Demon Clan remained a major power, having inherited many potent legacies and an Emperor Weapon from their ancestors.

Normally, these three great clans maintained a balance of power, filled with mutual suspicion and engaging in both open strife and secret machinations. It was impossible for them to unite.

But now, experts from the three clans had gathered, preparing to wage war on the Human Clan and break through the border...

Aside from the matter of the Demon Emperor's Son, the most important reason was that flower.

"I can feel it," the Mu Clan expert murmured. "The flower... it's on her."

The powerfully built Mu Clan expert, his eyes glinting eerily, stared intently into the void, his gaze fixed on Zi Ji on the other side.

In that instant, he sensed the Tree of Great Dao within Zi Ji.

The flower had already sprouted branches and leaves; it wouldn't be long before it bore fruit.

He grew impatient, a savage light in his eyes, the corners of his mouth twisting into a fierce grin. "That flower is mine."

The nearby Snake Demon expert sneered, "Have you forgotten about me?"

The Mu Clan expert remained silent.

Only the great demon from the Qin Clan kept his eyes downcast, unmoved. His target was not the flower, but Chen Pingping.

Chen Pingping had slain the Demon Emperor's Son, Qin Meng. This was tantamount to provoking the Demon Emperor and challenging the entire Qin Family, the Emperor Clan.

The upper echelons of the Demon Race were furious. They had originally planned to strike with overwhelming force, compelling the Alliance to hand over Chen Pingping. But... the Demon Emperor had not yet awakened. They were currently employing a Forbidden Technique in an attempt to rouse him.

Therefore, this Qin Clan demon had been dispatched in this crisis. His purpose was not to kill enemies, but to exert pressure on the border.

The experts of the three great clans had gathered to pressure the Alliance into surrendering Chen Pingping.

If the Alliance refused, the leaders of the three great clans would convene to discuss their next move.

As for Crimson Mulberry... he despised this woman.

"Very good. Master has not yet awakened, so I still have some time to play with them," Crimson Mulberry chuckled, her tone full of mirth.

The 'Master' she spoke of was none other than the Demon Emperor.

Crimson Mulberry was the Demon Emperor's sole Disciple.

In the Northern Border, her status was extremely high. Often, even the Qin Family's upper echelons dared not defy her.

Upon learning of the death of her Master's Son, she had come out of seclusion.

She went to the Qin Family, ordered them to awaken her Master, and then gathered experts from the three great clans.

This was all her arrangement.

Although the Qin Family was an Emperor Clan, they could not command the Mu Clan or the Snake Demon Clan; only a personal order from the Demon Emperor would suffice.

"You had best not act recklessly," the Qin Clan expert stated, his tone indifferent. "Lord Demon Emperor is about to awaken..."

HEH?

Crimson Mulberry scornfully replied, "Are you questioning my decision?"

The Qin Clan expert replied, "I wouldn't dare. I merely believe that since Lord Demon Emperor is about to awaken, it would be best if you remembered your place."

"Of course, I won't forget..." Crimson Mulberry narrowed her eyes. "But what about you? A pariah, marginalized by your own clan. I truly don't understand why the Qin Family sent you here to command their forces. Your insubordination is bound to ruin important matters. Do you believe that if I send word back to the Qin Family now, they'll have you removed?"

The Qin Clan expert sneered, "You can't." After a pause, before she could reply, he added, "And can you guess why the family would let a 'pariah' like me lead the army?"

He was no ordinary pariah.

The experts from the Mu Clan and the Snake Demon Clan watched with amusement, showing no intention of intervening.

Crimson Mulberry's expression turned ugly. It wasn't because the Qin Clan expert had refuted her, but because she knew the truth.

This Qin Clan demon before her, this so-called marginalized pariah, cultivated a strange technique capable of countering her Devouring God Skill.

The Qin Family's leadership had made their stance clear: she was merely the Demon Emperor's Disciple, not a member of the Qin Family. She could offer suggestions, but she'd best not overstep her bounds.

Damn it! A bunch of idiots.

Crimson Mulberry was furious but said no more.
