Moe Girl Guardians

【The Netherworld Jade Pavilion】

In an instant, Erica, Lily, Wu Feng, and Athena disappeared above the apartment.

An endless cherry blossom garden, cherry blossom petals fluttering in all directions, a cherry blossom-colored world—Wu Feng and his companions have once again arrived here, at the White Jade Pavilion in the void.

"Nice environment, Godslayer," Athena said with a smile, admiring the surroundings. When she looked at Wu Feng, her pale purple snake eyes suddenly narrowed.

Her strength had reached the peak of the ferocious realm, and she could break through to another level at any time. The gap was no longer that big. The real reason that made her snake eyes shrink was the change in her form.

Purple petals fluttered about, their presence undeniable even by the disappearance of the Great God of Moe. After the White Jade Tower was opened, their soul form reappeared before everyone's eyes.

“Erica…don’t tell me that’s Wu Feng…” Lily turned to Erica expressionlessly and asked.

"Well, were you surprised?" Erica replied, her pretty face slightly flushed, staring intently at Wu Feng.

Chapter 141 Dragon and Snake

Wu Feng would never choose to use the [Netherworld Jade Pavilion] unless absolutely necessary. Not only did it transform him into a soul form, but the three-day duration also made him very reluctant to use it. He would also never hold back against any opponent who entered the [Netherworld Jade Pavilion].

"Athena, let's fight and see who will regret it," a calm, almost black voice rang out from Wu Feng.

"Hahaha, this is what you call my enemy, the one who deserves the title of Demon King." Athena in her girl form smiled wickedly, and dark energy appeared behind her, seemingly connected to some other dimension, where countless unknown creatures with dark red eyes were present.

Let's settle this here!

With a wave of her hand, Athena unleashed a barrage of dark red light and shadow from the alternate dimension behind her, hurtling towards Wu Feng.

At the same time, countless blue and purple light butterflies continuously floated in mid-air around Wu Feng, their radiance shining with beautiful colors. In the blink of an eye, they had filled the surrounding space, heading towards the light and shadow barrier. Their power might not be as great, so they would make up for it with sheer numbers. Within the cherry blossom garden, Wu Feng's recovery speed had reached a terrifying level.

The light butterfly shattered, and endless fragments of light collided with the light and shadow. Due to their sheer number, the dark red light and shadow were forcibly blocked in mid-air.

The sudden disappearance of the four people outside the void world also surprised the remaining people.

"Priestess Yuan, in terms of spiritual vision alone, you are the best present. Are you able to see the king's battle?"

Yuri gazed at the distant sky, her body radiating spiritual energy. The surrounding space was tinged with a faint green, and in her eyes, it seemed as if a different world had appeared—a world filled with cherry blossoms. "A garden with cherry blossom trees, an endless staircase, Japanese-style pavilions, filled with death. What exactly is there? Athena and Wu... King are there, but they are too powerful; it's difficult to observe them clearly."

"That is one of the powers of the king. The information obtained from the investigation in Sardinia is that the god king Mekal suddenly disappeared and was about to be returned to mythology when he reappeared." After Wu Feng took Athena away, Amakasu Touma also understood that everything was premeditated. In order to fight against Athena at full power, he returned to his slovenly office worker uncle appearance.

"Is there no way we can help him...?" Maintaining her spiritual vision, Yuri asked Amakasu Touma with anticipation, hoping that this representative of the official history compilation committee could give her the answer she wanted.

"I apologize for my inability to address matters of the gods. Now I can only pray for the king's victory. If we fail, I fear Takayama City will disappear from the map of Japan." Despite uttering these chilling words, Amakasu Touma's expression remained completely unconcerned.

"..." Yuri remained silent and did not answer, continuing to watch the war in the void. Yufeng, why didn't you take us with you?

In the Netherworld Jade Pavilion, the battle continues.

The collision of the light butterfly and the shadow obscured the view in front of him. Before coming, Wu Feng had already changed into the special equipment [Gap]. A spatial rift opened up from his feet, and Wu Feng disappeared from the spot.

Behind Athena, a rift suddenly opened, revealing Wu Feng, who was poised to strike. The [Yuyuko's Fan (formerly)] in his hand was tinged with purple light, and he waved it down like a dancing butterfly of light.

After a period of time, Wu Feng discovered that although fans made of energy were useful, in terms of power, [Yuyuko's fan (formerly)] was superior, so he developed the habit of using physical objects.

The black energy transformed in Athena's hand into a gigantic scythe over two meters long. Above the hilt, a lifelike black snake was carved, its mouth spewing the massive scythe blade.

It appeared precisely in the direction the folding fan was waving, and the two collided solidly, producing a loud clang. The obscured view not only gave Wu Feng the opportunity to launch a sneak attack but also aroused the vigilance of the wise Athena.

"A power similar to teleportation, Godslayer. You possess a troublesome power. Let me guess whether it can be used instantly." Athena's pure white hair danced and fluttered with her movements, her eyes revealing a playful light, and an ominous power surged from her body once again.

Located at Athena's feet, the earth trembled, as if something was about to burst forth, but was hindered by the rules of the [Netherworld Jade Tower] itself.

Athena frowned slightly, and made a slight hooking motion with her hand, bringing out more ominous power, which together with the ground beneath her feet created five pitch-black tunnels, each more than ten meters long.

A hissing sound rang out from the passage, and five enormous creatures suddenly emerged from it. Their hundred-meter-long bodies spiraled upwards, their skin as hard as rock and blue-black, their scales composed of countless scales, their heads ferocious, and their eyes gleaming with scarlet light.

Athena stood on the strongest of the snakes, which was more like a dragon than a snake, with faint traces of a dragon already visible in its head.

Long, pale purple hair obscured half of his face. Wu Feng's eyes narrowed slightly as he murmured softly, "Of all animals, snakes are the one I hate the most."

"Black nightmare beast, heed the call, appear before me in your chariot of the underworld!"

Standing on the ground, Wu Feng uttered the power incantation for the first time. He thought it would emerge from the ground like the giant serpent, but a moment later, a ball of icy blue flame appeared in the sky, and the Nightmare Beast descended from the sky.

Completely black, reflecting a unique luster, with ice-blue flames burning on its four legs, and a single black horn on its forehead, the Nightmare Beast, a legendary warhorse of the underworld, descended from the sky.

Perhaps Wu Feng's thoughts could influence the Netherworld Chariot of Power. When the four Nightmare Warhorses appeared, they did not pull the chariot. They simply appeared alone from the horizon, surrounded by an aura of death. In this [Netherworld Jade Tower], even they had reached their peak.

"Good children, those giant snakes are yours to deal with," Wu Feng said softly, stroking the Nightmare Warhorse's glossy black fur. Then, the Nightmare Warhorse let out a neigh, and its body burst into ice-blue flames as it charged towards one of the hundred-meter-long giant snakes.

Here, their enhanced strength is comparable to that of the giant snake, making them capable of handling it.

Then, a steel lion suddenly appeared and pounced on the last giant serpent, the strongest of all the serpents and Athena's mount.

Before the two even made contact, five steel arrows, glowing with an icy blue light, struck the giant serpent first. As if bound by a rope, each strike of the steel arrows caused a massive explosion. Then the steel lion arrived, and the intense impact made the giant serpent unstable, prompting Athena to jump down.

"I prefer to call you Ghost Wind rather than King. Leave the last one to me and Lily." Erica and Lily appeared in the smoke. Erica turned to Wu Feng with a seductive smile and joined the battle.

"My king, we must win!" Lily's words were much more concise than Erica's, and she immediately joined the battle after saying that.

"...Athena, let's continue!"

Chapter 142 Twin Goddesses?

【The Netherworld White Jade Pavilion】Inside the cherry blossom courtyard, two girls are cautiously facing each other. One is dressed in a Greek-style white robe, like a goddess descended from heaven, untouched by any defilement. The other is dressed in a robe of Yakumo, her pale purple hair fluttering in the wind, her eyes revealing a cold allure.

Behind them was a chaotic battle, with nightmare warhorses and giant snakes, lions and steel arrows, but none of it affected them.

"Godslayer, no, Wu Feng, you both wield the power of death, you have similar summons, and even your appearances are comparable. You are very similar to me. Join my ranks!" Athena's serpentine eyes revealed surprise. Wu Feng's performance had many similarities to hers, which aroused her special thoughts.

"I refuse," Wu Feng said without hesitation.

"Why? Don't use the excuse of helping humans. You're not human, are you? Your physical composition is actually quite similar to that of a disobedient god," Athena asked, puzzled. Her wisdom told her that the other party was not fighting her for the sake of humanity. What was the reason?

Are you suggesting I tell you it's for a special weapon...? You wouldn't understand anyway.

"Reason? Can you eat it? What's the use of it if you can't eat it? Anyway, I just want to defeat you." Wu Feng replied in a shameless manner, spreading out his folding fan to cover half of his face.

"Do you want to defeat me?" Athena revealed a playful smile, her serpentine eyes suddenly flashing with a pale purple light.

The ground beneath Wu Feng's feet began to petrify. Even as he floated in mid-air, the undead felt his legs were extremely heavy, as if something had been packed into his body, making it difficult for him to move quickly.

One of the abilities of Medusa, the avatar of Athena, is the Petrifying Eye. Anyone she sees will be petrified. She sent Veleslana back to mythology and obtained A-rank magic resistance, thus avoiding petrification, but her body was also burdened and she could hardly move.

"Can you defeat me?" After being petrified, Athena wielded her giant scythe and quickly approached Wu Feng. Affected by petrification, it was almost impossible for Wu Feng to dodge Athena's attack.

“You also said that we are very similar, and I can also use the Demon Eye.” The heavy pressure on his body did not make Wu Feng too panicked. After a brief moment of surprise, he looked at Athena again, and his azure eyes began to change at this moment.

Since advancing in rank, this was the first time I used the A-rank magic eye, the [Binding Magic Eye]. After using it, in my soul form, the beautiful sky blue color quickly transformed into a noble butterfly purple, which was not an ordinary color.

The butterfly-purple eyes, which even crystal craftsmanship could not imitate, were interspersed with almost imperceptible rings of heterochromatic colors. Athena had never seen eyes comparable to them, not only in mythology but also in the present day.

The moment Athena's butterfly-purple eyes completed their transformation, her figure froze, almost completely still on the ground.

"This is my true nemesis. We have such a deep connection. After this battle, submit to me!" Athena laughed excitedly. Everything about Wu Feng gave her a sense of possessiveness.

The ominous power surrounding Athena surged again, breaking the binding force, but the ensuing pressure also greatly reduced Athena's speed, causing her to lose the advantage of petrification.

The Dance of the Butterfly Dream

Accelerated by the power of death, Wu Feng flew forward. A black rift opened up, and when he reappeared, Wu Feng had already arrived in front of Athena. The [Yuyuko's Fan (formerly)] in his hand transformed into a purple butterfly and flew away.

Even knowing that the opponent was about to come to her, Athena, under immense pressure, could hardly dodge. The giant scythe in her hand instantly turned into a black light and reformed into a shield.

The shield pattern features the head of a woman with snakes for hair, and a pair of wings can be seen behind it, blocking Athena's path.

The folding fan and the shield collided violently, the sound echoing throughout the courtyard.

The body was slowed down by the heavy pressure and could not pick up speed. The power of [Butterfly Dream Dance] was weakened considerably. In addition, Athena's shield was no ordinary object. After two consecutive attacks, it failed to break through the defense.

However, after his battle with Mekal, Wu Feng gained new abilities and divine power. With the added strength of his immense power, the power of [Dance of the Butterfly Dream] did not weaken much, allowing Athena to carve a trench tens of meters long.

After using [Dance of the Butterfly Dream], the heaviness suddenly disappeared from his body, and Wu Feng also canceled the effect of [Binding Demon Eye]. Continuous use had also taken a toll on him.

As soon as the attack was released, Wu Feng felt a chilling aura. He dodged backward and quickly hid. Where he had just been, a giant scythe was stuck in the ground. Athena was floating in mid-air, and behind her, in the blur, seemed to be a pair of golden wings.

“Medusa is a girl with golden wings, and with the enhancement of those wings, speed is also one of my strengths,” Athena said with a provocative smile, as if to say, “Go on.”

At this speed, Athena believed Wu Feng wouldn't last long.

"Um, we really do look alike..." Wu Feng replied hesitantly, wondering what kind of expression he should make.

[Variable Wings]

Behind Wu Feng, a pale purple glow appeared, and a pair of enormous wings of light appeared, dreamlike and extremely beautiful. They floated and stood opposite Athena, looking at her astonished pretty face.

"Interesting," Athena murmured in admiration, then raised her giant scythe again and flew towards Wu Feng.

Athena is the goddess of war, and combat is her forte. Her giant scythe flashes with cold light, and every strike is chilling. Being hit by her will not be a minor injury. Even with the speed boost from [Variable Wings] and Wu Feng's close-combat skills, they can only barely protect themselves under the level advantage.

As time went by, Wu Feng found it increasingly difficult to cope. In the battle, Athena was gradually getting used to the power of the sudden flight, and her attacks became more fierce. Even just a graze left marks on her body. Before long, Wu Feng had many wounds on his body.

"Wu Feng, admit defeat. This time, I won't ask anything of you. I will keep my promise and let you go this time," Athena said softly with an absolute advantage.

"It's only just begun, the outcome is still uncertain," Wu Feng replied somewhat awkwardly as he dodged Athena's attack once again, while simultaneously retreating sharply.

Athena didn't continue chasing Wu Feng. Instead, she stopped, tilted her head curiously, and revealed a seductive smile. "What, do you still have a trump card to play?"

Let's change the battlefield.

A black crack appeared beneath Wu Feng's feet, swallowing him up. Athena instantly turned her head to look at the endless staircase. The crack opened, and Wu Feng stood on the staircase, making a gesture of challenge to Athena.

Chapter 143 The Third Stage

Perhaps due to absolute confidence in her own power, Athena, now one with one body, arrived at the endless staircase without the slightest hesitation. A strange sensation arose as she stepped onto the staircase; Athena was somewhat puzzled, but the feeling was so faint that even she couldn't understand why.

"I didn't expect the wise Athena to come here directly. Is she too confident? The Endless Ladder has a very loving effect." Wu Feng was surprised when Athena stepped directly onto the Endless Ladder. He was originally thinking about how to trick her into coming.

“Even if I discover that this staircase is a trap, I must step onto it to fulfill the battle agreement. Moreover, it is one of your powers, so I have no reason to be afraid.” Athena smiled with interest as she looked at the long, white jade-like staircase beneath her feet.

"Is one of its abilities the ability to prevent leaving?" Athena had already tried it; once she stepped onto the endless staircase, she could no longer leave and return to the cherry blossom garden. Violence might work, but it wasn't what Athena wanted.

"One of the abilities of the Endless Ladder is that you can only move forward and are forbidden to retreat. Before I reach the top, grab me!" As he spoke, Wu Feng had already moved up another white jade step and shouted at Athena.

If he were to reach the top, she might lose. This thought crossed Athena's mind, and a joyful smile appeared on her face. As a god associated with war, she was ultimately not immune to a warlike nature.

Her body became a blur as she swiftly ran up the endless staircase. The moment she started running, Athena finally understood where she had initially felt something was amiss.
