After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 740 People from the Upper Realm
The Demon Lord's face darkened after being spoken to.

Even though Lin Zhao pointed his finger at him and called him a dog and a lackey, he didn't dare to confront Lin Zhao directly, even though Lin Zhao looked exhausted and his combat power had been greatly weakened.

"My lord, I entrust the matter of Lin Zhao to you. Once she is dead, who in the cultivation world will be an obstacle for us now?"

The woman with the silver-gray pupils suddenly narrowed her eyes into thin lines, like a snake's, exuding an ominous and otherworldly aura.

"Lin Zhao, or I should call you Lord of Tian Shu Star, but since this is our first meeting, you can call me Nüba."

Lin Zhao held the Heavenly Punishment Brush in his hand and ignored her.

“Your talent is evident to all, and you are the first candidate chosen by the gods to become the future high priest in all these years. I have no intention of being your enemy.”

Lin Zhao still ignored her.

However, Nüba was not angry at Lin Zhao's indifferent attitude. Instead, she glanced contemptuously at the Demon Lord who had come with her and said, "If you don't want these insects to live, Nüba can lend you a hand."

Only when the Demon Lord's expression changed drastically did Lin Zhao speak, "What is the price?"

Nuwa smiled slightly, raised her slender finger, and pointed precisely at Ji Wantang.

"As long as you show your sincerity and kill Ji Wantang, we can assist you in eliminating the demons and help you ascend to a high position."

Lin Zhao shook his head: "Come on, let's fight."

Letting her kill Ji Wantang would be tantamount to extinguishing a hope for the cultivation world, something Lin Zhao would never allow.

Besides, even if the evil thoughts from another world proposed other conditions today, she would not agree.

Ever since she witnessed the horrific scenes in various planes caused by the evil thoughts from other worlds, the conflict between her and those evil thoughts has become irreconcilable.

The woman with silver-gray eyes seemed to understand why Lin Zhao was so hostile towards her, and shook her head in confusion: "My lord, we are merely wills. We are only assimilated by ambitious and greedy people from various planes who are willing to trade with us, wanting to gain something from us. It is simply an equal exchange. Why are you so hostile towards us?"

Lin Zhao summoned a talisman, drew a talisman, and threw it toward the woman's face.

"You should tell that nonsense to your dog. So-called equivalent exchange is just about constantly influencing the will of these beings, making them devour each other, and then devour themselves?"

The woman dodged the talisman and raised her hand to tear it at Lin Zhao: "The birth of all living beings means devouring and desire. If a being wants to live, it means it will devour other beings. We, the evil beings of this other world, are simply following the fundamental principles of the universe. What's wrong with that?"

Lin Zhao placed a brush against her palm, his brow gleaming with golden light: "Why bother with your fallacies and heresies? I will not change your ideas, but your ultimate goal is to destroy the cultivation world, making you my enemy."

"Furthermore, do beings like you, who are driven only by the desire to devour, also have a sense of right and wrong?" Lin Zhao asked sarcastically, unfurling his phoenix wings and slamming a punch into the woman's chest.

A hole was instantly punched through the woman's chest, a sight that made the demon lord she had invited turn pale instantly.

However, the two sides in the battle had different expressions.

Lin Zhao gripped the Heavenly Punishment Brush tighter and tighter.

She didn't hold back at all with that punch, she used almost all her strength, yet it only left the opponent with a hole that could heal at any time.

Lin Zhao looked down at his hands, his gaze towards the woman growing increasingly serious.

The woman's figure swayed slightly as she met Lin Zhao's wary gaze, and she smiled: "Oh, right, I forgot to give the Dragon-Phoenix Emperor a detailed self-introduction. My name is Nüba, and you can also call my true form the Seventh Priestess." True form, the Seventh Priestess.

Is it an avatar of the priest?

No wonder it's so tricky.

Lin Zhao put away the Heavenly Punishment Brush and looked down at Ji Wantang.

A pure malice appeared in Nüba's cold and beautiful features: "Your Holy Dragon Emperor Spear is with the Demon Ancestor, and the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword has cleared away the demonic energy around Ji Wantang. I am not afraid of any talismans or magic arrays. Lin Zhao, what will you use to fight me?"

Lin Zhao raised his hands, looked at his two empty hands, and chuckled, "Empty hands don't necessarily mean I can't take you off your horse."

Nuba shook her head: "You are just like the High Priest, with deep feelings and strong character. No wonder you were chosen by the gods to be the next High Priest. Only someone like you can put the gods at ease."

Lin Zhaodi unleashed a Phoenix Palm strike.

"Relax? What do you mean by 'relaxed'? You mean you can kill me at any time, right?"

A silver streak flew out from Nüba's palm, shattering Lin Zhao's Emperor Phoenix Palm.

"Emperor Dragon Phoenix, you are mistaken. Although the battle between you and the High Priest was part of the gods' plan, it was a battle you were destined to fight. I presume..." Nuwa looked at Lin Zhao with a smile, "You have already killed the High Priest's sister, haven't you?"

Lin Zhao paused, "Was this also part of the gods' plan?"

"of course."

When the gods were mentioned, Nuba's face was filled with undisguised worship and reverence. "The laws governing all things in the universe are contained within the palm of a god."

Lin Zhao couldn't stand her pretentious act and sneered, "So what if the laws are in his palm? He still has to roam around like a stray dog, feeding on other people's homes to grow stronger. To put it bluntly, he's just giving your banditry a so-called powerful name. The strong challenge the stronger, the weak bully the weaker. If you're so capable, let your omnipotent god challenge the true rules of the universe? Become the true ruler of the universe?"

Upon hearing this, Nüba's silver pupils shone brightly, and a cloud of gray energy was exhaled from her mouth. This gray energy fell into Nüba's hand and transformed into a chain that gleamed with silver light.

These chains swelled in the wind, completely enveloping Lin Zhao.

"You, go and kill Ji Wantang." The demon's cold gaze swept over Ji Wantang below, then looked at Lin Zhao, who was bound in the center by her chains: "As for her, she is a gift to be given to the High Priest. I will never disobey the will of the gods."

Lin Zhao's several talismans landed on the chains but had no effect; however, mobilizing the power of the Seven Star Palace did manage to make some movement.

However, she has depleted too much of her immortal energy and cannot break free of this chained cage in a short time.

Lin Zhao was gathering his strength, but before he could think of a solution, the chains were cut open from the outside.

Before Lin Zhao could even react in surprise, the female demon's clone was entangled by a white figure.

"Give me the Nüba clone, you guard Ji Wantang." The newcomer was dressed in white with black hair, exuding an ethereal aura and radiating a cold, peerless beauty.

"Ning Xian..." Lin Zhao didn't think much and turned around to Ji Wantang's side, raising a protective shield of immortal energy.

Nuwa looked at Ning Xian with surprise and doubt: "You?"

Before she could ask any questions, Ning Xian swung a slender silver sword down at her.
