"Ah, Chulord, are you hurt?" Gunaara immediately drew a crescent-shaped dagger from her waist and pointed it at the Demon Lord as soon as she saw that Xiang Xueer was unharmed. "You should not be arrogant, Demon Lord. Our Nuwa clan will never submit to you!"
"Nuwa clan?" The Demon Lord narrowed his eyes at Gunaara, then glanced at the Azure Wind Sword in Xiang Xueer's hand. His eyes, glinting with a cold light, suddenly took on an exceptionally strange expression, making it impossible to discern what he was thinking.
A gust of wind blew by, and a leaf swept past her eyes. Suddenly, she widened her eyes; despite not daring to blink, the Demon Lord had vanished from her sight in an instant.
"Where did he go?" Xiang Xueer was startled and immediately felt a chill run down her spine. In the blink of an eye, she heard a voice behind her that was enough to make anyone tremble: "What are you looking at? I'm right here!"
Xiang Xueer reacted quickly; her red pupils contracted as she spun around. With a loud thud, one of her feet shot out to block the descending claws of the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord paused in surprise, and both quickly retreated to create distance for their battle. After a moment, an excited smile appeared on his face as he threw his head back and laughed heartily: "Interesting, interesting! A little girl can actually withstand my attack. There are very few in the demon realm who can do that!"
His chilling laughter echoed through the dark night sky, startling the birds and beasts in the nearby forest into flight. Xiang Xueer glanced sideways at the dazed Gunaara. This was too dangerous for her; she needed to get her away from the fight.
"Thank you for the compliment," Xiang Xueer said before turning and grabbing Gunaara's arm, running quickly. "You need to leave now! I can't handle this alone, and if you're here, I won't be able to focus on him."
Gunaara shook her head vigorously. "No! I don't want to! He is the Demon Lord! I want to stay with Chulord! Maybe I can help!"
God, how could she help? It would be a miracle if she didn't hinder them. As soon as the Demon Lord made his move, Xiang Xueer felt her heart leap into her throat. The dark mist behind them was following closely, showing no signs of letting up; it was gaining speed and about to catch up.
"Run!" Seeing that time was running out, Xiang Xueer became anxious as this woman showed no awareness of the danger. She jumped up and down in frustration. No, it seemed she needed to find help first.
She quickly formed hand seals with both hands, then bit her finger and slammed it onto the ground with a whoosh while shouting loudly: "Summoning."
In an instant, the ground began to crack open, and amidst the white smoke, Taotie appeared. It turned its head to glance at Xiang Xueer and exclaimed in shock, "Master, your eyes!"
Oh, that can wait; the situation is urgent! Xiang Xueer turned to look at the Demon Lord who had suddenly appeared before her, her brows furrowing in concern.
"Demon, Demon Lord?" Taotie turned its head and nearly had its eyes pop out. "I heard in the Void Realm that the Demon Prison Tower has fallen and the Demon Lord has emerged. I didn't expect to see you in person right after being summoned. I must say, Master, you are really good to me!"
Taotie was deliberately speaking sarcastically, but given the life-and-death situation, Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue couldn't help at the moment; if not looking for you, then who?
"Summoned beast?" The Demon Lord looked at Taotie summoned by Xiang Xueer, a satisfied smile appearing on his lips. "Ancient divine beast: Taotie. Little girl, I quite like you!"
"Ah?" Xiang Xueer and Taotie were both taken aback. Like? What does that mean? Taotie stared at Xiang Xueer's frustrated expression and said, "Hey, it seems like the Demon Lord has taken a liking to you!"
"Shut up!" Xiang Xueer quickly shook her head in exasperation. "No, don't take a liking to me! Of course, even though I am stunningly beautiful and unparalleled, I have no interest in older men."
The Demon Lord kept sizing up Xiang Xueer and her summoned beast, completely ignoring her ramblings. After a moment, his red pupils contracted slightly. "I have decided to recruit you into the New Four Demon Generals. Little girl, how about serving me?"
New Four Demon Generals? Xiang Xueer was momentarily stunned and then felt a wave of frustration. Damn it, he actually wants to recruit me as his subordinate! After all this time, I thought he was interested in me! She shot a glare at Taotie. "It's all your fault for misleading me."
"It's not my fault; you misunderstood too!" Both idiots had gotten it wrong. Meanwhile, the Demon Lord was still waiting for her response. Was he trying to fill the vacancies left by Black Dragon Saint Lord and Heart Demon?
"Hehe! Sorry, but I'm not interested!" Xiang Xueer immediately rejected the Demon Lord's offer. However, he didn't seem surprised at all; instead, he admired her even more. Since ancient times, renowned generals have often been as beautiful as they are strong; how could they easily pledge their loyalty?
"No worries! One day you will agree!" The Demon Lord's red eyes swept over to Gunaara standing nearby. With a swish, leaves fell again around them. Xiang Xueer suddenly felt a sense of crisis, but it was already too late.
"Don't move, or you'll lose your life!" The Demon Lord appeared behind Gunaara, one hand gripping her neck while the other, with sharp nails, grazed her pale throat. A careless move could easily slice through her artery.
Xiang Xueer was taken aback; she had miscalculated. She initially thought the Demon Lord's target would be her, but she never expected him to grab Gunaara. She shouted, "Demon Lord, what do you want? Do you think threatening her will make me submit?"
"Hehehe!" The Demon Lord chuckled coldly. "Of course not. I just changed my mind at the last moment. Don't worry, my target isn't her; what I want is Fuxi Qin!"
Fuxi Qin? A chill ran through Xiang Xueer. Could it be that this Demon Lord knows about Fuxi Qin? Has he already learned of the method mentioned by the Azure Wind Sword? It can't be possible!
The Demon Lord stared into her puzzled eyes, lightly tracing Gunaara's neck with a finger, circling around. "Hmph! So naive. Do you really think I wouldn't know what you've been doing in secret? Let me tell you, I have eyes and ears everywhere; every move you make is under my control."
It seemed he truly knew everything. Xiang Xueer gritted her teeth in frustration while Gunaara completely failed to understand their conversation. "What are you talking about? I don't understand at all!"
"Not understanding is exactly right!" Xiang Xueer took a deep breath and removed the mask from her face, revealing her crimson demonic eyes, which shocked Gunaara into widening her eyes. "You... your eyes... you're a demon?"
"I'm not a demon; it's a long story!" Xiang Xueer frowned and approached the Demon Lord. "Fuxi Qin will never be handed over to you! Let her go, or I won't hold back!"
The Demon Lord couldn't help but laugh with excitement. "While I would love to fight you again, time is of the essence. I'll be waiting for you in the clearing outside the village; you have until dusk to hand over Fuxi Qin. Otherwise, prepare a coffin for this woman!"
A cloud of black mist swirled around him, and with a leap, the Demon Lord quickly vanished into the sky with Gunaara. By this time, the sky was already brightening. Xiang Xueer kicked the ground in anger. "That bastard Demon Lord won't get away with this."
