Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 580 She is Furious

The bright moon cast its silver glow, like a sheer veil draped over this small outpost.

SWISH, SWISH, SWISH!

Everyone looked at each other, eyeing their companions. The familiar faces told the story—Crimson Mulberry hadn't come.

They looked toward Jiang Ni'er again. "Where is she?"

"You couldn't be deceiving us, could you?"

"Exactly!"

"How could Crimson Mulberry, that Demon Girl, dare to come at a time like this?"

"Indeed, indeed..."

They were questioning. Jiang Ni'er simply smiled without speaking.

Zi Ji had already risen, her eyes brimming with Spirit Qi, scrutinizing every person.

Crimson Mulberry, concealed among them, trembled inwardly, almost cursing aloud. It was too strange. This was not her first time infiltrating the Human Clan's border, but rather her hundredth, and yet no one had ever discovered her—not even the three decision-makers. But now, she felt panicked.

Fortunately, after a while, Zi Ji stopped her survey.

Crimson Mulberry quietly breathed a sigh of relief at this scene.

At this moment, Jiang Ni'er also stepped forward. "Please step back a bit."

"Why?" someone asked.

"The Array I set up is outside the courtyard; there's none here," she said.

The implication was clear: Crimson Mulberry was right here, hidden among them.

Although the Alliance experts were dubious, they still followed her instructions and collectively retreated from the courtyard.

Crimson Mulberry, hidden among them, cursed silently. What a clever little girl, trying to trick me into revealing a flaw? Heh… does she think I'm a pushover?

When she first arrived, she had been cautious, looking around but noticing no fluctuations of any Array. So, when Jiang Ni'er mentioned the Array, Crimson Mulberry realized that she might be lying; perhaps Jiang Ni'er didn't even know she had arrived. It was all an act of mystification.

"Alright, we've come out now. Where is this Crimson Mulberry Demon Girl you speak of?" a middle-aged man questioned.

They didn't believe her and were waiting for the young girl to make a fool of herself.

Jiang Ni'er looked towards Zi Ji.

The latter understood and charged out of the courtyard. She quickly channeled her Spirit Qi into several sword beams, slashing at one individual.

The speed was swift, and the aim was precise.

Everyone present was shocked, unable to dodge in time...

The man beneath the sword beams was one of their companions: a plainly dressed, middle-aged man of average build, around forty years old. He cried out, "Save me!"

"Damn it! What are you doing?"

"Stop!" roared one of the Alliance experts, finally understanding.

Zi Ji had no intention of stopping. A few steps later, she appeared behind the man and pressed down with her finger.

No Divine Brilliance, no aura.

This single finger pierced the man's body, and a torrent of fresh blood gushed out.

Zi Ji moved to strike again.

But by this time, an Alliance expert had reacted, unleashing a skill wreathed in Divine Brilliance that surged toward her with formidable power. In an instant, it resembled a roaring dragon, lunging forward to devour that small figure.

"Tempest Cut," Zi Ji said, her expression cold and vastly different from usual.

A single slash.

The gale surged again, instantly blocking the Alliance expert's attack. The remaining force sliced towards the middle-aged man.

His face changed drastically. "You..."

His voice changed. It had been rough before, but now it turned into that of an exasperated woman.

Everyone was taken aback.

Then, in full view of everyone, the middle-aged man revealed his true form: a red dress swayed out, and disheveled hair flew about. Her beautiful, enticing face was etched with despair, her stunning eyes fixed on Jiang Ni'er.

WTF? The Alliance experts were stunned.

Crimson Mulberry. She had really come.

Zi Ji blinked, in no hurry to make a move.

In the courtyard, Jiang Ni'er let out a light sigh and walked out step by step. "You still came."

Crimson Mulberry coughed up blood. "How did you discover me?"

Jiang Ni'er chuckled lightly. "Guess?"

"Guess, my ass!" Crimson Mulberry, always dignified, compelling, and impeccably dressed, rarely stooped to such crude language.

She was furious, her mood utterly foul. She had infiltrated the Human Clan's border over a hundred times, assassinating many high-ranking Alliance members. No one had ever managed to stop her. Yet now, a mere slip of a girl had seen through her illusion. Not only that, but another young girl was now overpowering her.

Who the hell were these girls? Crimson Mulberry felt suffocated, unable to calm down.

Jiang Ni'er waved her hand. "It's only a few dozen miles from here to your Demon Race territory, but I assure you, you won't make it back."

Crimson Mulberry's face darkened. "You set up an Array too?"

Jiang Ni'er shook her head. "I did not."

"Then why did you have us leave the courtyard?" Crimson Mulberry questioned.

"I was afraid you might accidentally destroy this courtyard. The Alliance leaders would be upset and accuse us from the Wuji Sect of being inconsiderate. So... isn't it better to fight outside the courtyard?" she explained softly. "Aside from this courtyard, even if you destroy the entirety of Thousand Cities, it's none of our concern."

That's what she said.

The Alliance experts present muttered to themselves. Were they really that petty?

But no one objected; all were nervously watching Crimson Mulberry, the turmoil in their hearts still churning, yet to settle.

"Hah!" Crimson Mulberry cackled. "You're quite meticulous, but... you're also incredibly foolish, daring to admit so openly that there's no Array. If I want to leave now, none of you can stop me."

Jiang Ni'er extended a finger and said earnestly, "You can't leave."

"You're full of shit!" Crimson Mulberry cursed, infuriated by her earnestness.

She was Crimson Mulberry, the Demon Emperor's sole disciple! Across the vast Northern Border, her status was revered. Even the most powerful Demon Race experts showed her deference. And this little girl before her, with that earnest expression, actually thought she had her cornered? What a joke.

Crimson Mulberry sneered. "Just watch. I'm leaving now." With that, she prepared to activate her Void Skill, intending to traverse the Void and escape this wretched place.

However...

She executed the skill, but the Void remained unresponsive, as if this entire section of the world had been sealed.

Crimson Mulberry's smile froze. Despite several attempts, it was to no avail.

She stared with wide eyes, in disbelief.

Even her Void Skill wouldn't activate. Could it be? Had those old bastards intervened? Had they sealed this region of space?

She looked shocked, staring intently behind Jiang Ni'er.

But she didn't realize it wasn't the Alliance leaders who had sealed the space. It was the old yellow ox in the courtyard. Its domain was unique, emitting no power fluctuations whatsoever. Even a Quasi-Emperor Realm expert wouldn't be able to detect it here.

Lao Huang glanced at the stunned Crimson Mulberry, the corners of his mouth twitching into a contemptuous smile. "Little girl, even if I don't act, you're not leaving."

Setting aside that little hen's Array—and not even mentioning Mao Qiu—Zi Ji alone would be enough to prevent her from escaping.

"Damn it! Edge! Martial Warrior! Great Swordsman! Have you no shame, ganging up on someone weaker?" Crimson Mulberry pointed in a certain direction and cursed.

The Alliance experts were bewildered. Had the three decision-makers intervened? They all looked behind them.

But behind them, there was complete silence. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

On the packed-earth houses, only the middle-aged Scholar, sensing the unusual fluctuations, had rushed over immediately. He was, after all, the guardian of Thousand Cities Pass.

He was especially shocked to see Crimson Mulberry. When she shouted the names of the three decision-makers, the Scholar frowned and instinctively glanced behind him.

No one was there. He looked back at Crimson Mulberry.

She glared fiercely at him. "What are you looking at?"

The Scholar looked utterly innocent.

Just then, Jiang Ni'er said softly, "It starts with you."
