But in front of Cui Zi, it was as fragile as a sheet of paper, easily cut in half.
Along with the powerful great demons and numerous lesser demons, they were all instantly reduced to ashes by Midori's attack.
"Suiko, you're amazing!" Kanade exclaimed, looking at the horrific battlefield. She hadn't expected Suiko to be so powerful now. Even the Four Gods, who could withstand attacks from King-level demons, were as fragile as leaves in her hands.
Lingyue Fairy Maiden's hair stood on end, and she said with lingering fear:
"How could this priestess be so ridiculously strong? She easily defeated a being capable of withstanding a king-level demon. It's unbelievable."
The shrine maiden Kurumi lightly covered her red lips, a sly glint in her eyes, and smiled as she spoke to Kanade and Lingyue Xianji:
"Are you envious? As long as you serve your darling well, reaching the level of Midori is only a matter of time."
"And this is just the beginning. As long as you are willing to dedicate yourselves, you will become stronger than a king-level demon in no time."
Lingyue Xianji and Zouji looked at the shrine maiden Kurumi with suspicion, and said in unison:
"How could such an outrageous thing happen? We don't believe it."
“Oh, if you don’t believe me, why don’t you go and ask Cui Zi?”
Kurumi Tokisaki looked at Midori with a grin, her eyes full of provocation.
"Kurumi, stop bothering me." Midori's expression changed slightly, her eyebrows furrowed, and she looked reproachfully at Tokisaki Kurumi, who was hiding behind Xue Lingfeng.
"Am I wrong?" Kurumi Tokisaki playfully stuck out her tongue and continued to provoke her.
“You…” Cui Zi felt a surge of anger. At that moment, she really wanted to tie up this troublesome elf like Shi Yu did.
Just then, a rope shot out like lightning, accurately binding Kurumi Tokisaki.
Kasumigaoka Utaha said coldly from the side:
"Cuizi, why talk to her so much? For troublemakers like this, just tie them up and teach them a lesson."
Clearly, she had been waiting for a long time, and seeing that Xue Lingfeng did not stop her, she decisively took action.
"Hey, Shiyu-chan, what are you doing?"
Kurumi Tokisaki exclaimed in surprise, looking at Utaha Kasumigaoka with a wronged expression, then rubbed against Yukine's back and said in a coquettish tone,
“Darling, Shiyu bullied me, you have to help me get revenge and turn her into a sex slave.”
Kasumigaoka Utaha's face instantly darkened, and she shouted in a low voice, "Tokisaki Kurumi!"
Before she finished speaking, she had already appeared in front of Tokisaki Kurumi, grabbed her cheeks with both hands, and stretched and kneaded them forcefully, making her originally delicate face look ridiculous.
"Waaah... Darling, Utaha-chan is so mean..."
Kurumi Tokisaki rubbed pitifully against Yukari's back, trying to seek comfort.
Zou-hime watched the group's playful antics with a strange expression on her face.
Her gaze then turned to the slightly embarrassed Midori, and she sighed inwardly, never expecting that the usually pure and holy Midori could have such a vivid expression.
"Souhime, why are you looking at me like that?"
Midori noticed Kanade's gaze and felt a sense of unease. She asked him in confusion.
Aside from the battle just now, I don't think I've done anything particularly special.
Zou-hime tilted her head slightly, a hint of inquiry in her eyes, and asked:
"Midori, does a shrine maiden really become different when she has a lover?"
Cui Zi just mentioned sacrificing herself to feed the demon, in order to offset Xue Lingfeng's potential harm to the world.
Moreover, after Xue Lingfeng's persuasive words, they also decided to become his tools, to drive away monsters and help him achieve his goal of ruling the world.
However, looking at the complex expression in Cui Zi's eyes, she couldn't help but wonder if Cui Zi's feelings for Xue Lingfeng were not so simple.
"spouse?"
Cui Zi was startled, and a look of panic appeared on her face. What kind of love is this? It was clearly that bastard who forced me.
Even so, her gaze involuntarily drifted to Xue Lingfeng, only to find him staring at her.
Cui Zi was immediately flustered and quickly looked away, not daring to meet his gaze.
That brief eye contact had stirred up ripples in her heart.
"My great witch, just admit it."
Xue Lingfeng's lips curled up into a playful smile as she spoke softly.
"Admit what?"
Cui Zi's lips trembled slightly, a blush rose on her fair cheeks, and her earlobes became translucent, as red as ripe cherries.
"Of course, it means I admit you fell in love with me first."
Xue Lingfeng's voice, like a gentle thread, reached Cui Zi's ears, making her want to escape Xue Lingfeng's embrace even more.
The surrounding women all cast surprised glances at her, while Souhime's gaze remained resolute.
It seems that what Cui Zi just said about offering herself to the demon was probably a lie.
She pursed her lips slightly and murmured incredulously, "Cuizi, I never thought you'd learned to lie too."
Upon hearing what Shuhime said, Midori felt a surge of panic and wished she could disappear into the ground.
Looking at Cui Zi's shy appearance, Xue Lingfeng found her even more adorable and couldn't help but want to continue teasing her.
Just then, a streak of light pierced the sky, followed by an aged voice:
"Thankfully, nothing serious happened."
Everyone's eyes turned to the sky.
Chapter 280 A Monster Seeking Death, Fairy Lingyue Helpless
Seeing that Penglai Island remained safe and sound, the bald old man floating in the sky breathed a sigh of relief.
He had already sensed that Abe no Seimei was fighting a powerful priestess.
Finally, he sensed the pure and powerful spiritual energy, which instantly put him on high alert.
I wanted to check carefully to see if the artifact was intact, but then I thought it should be fine.
After all, shrine maidens don't usually use that kind of method to increase their strength.
After all, most of those priestesses were dedicated to humanity, taking it upon themselves to save lives and heal the wounded.
They wouldn't resort to such cruel methods to enhance their strength.
The Roaring Furnace requires monsters to be thrown in in order to extract demonic power and enhance one's strength.
If the priestess wants to use it to enhance her strength, then she will naturally need to use humans.
Not long ago, he once again felt that pure spiritual energy, and this familiar feeling was exactly the same as the spiritual energy he had felt in Kyoto not long ago.
He was immediately alarmed. Although the priestess wouldn't use that thing, he was still very nervous.
He used that thing to advance to the level of a royal-level great demon, and was already connected with that resounding furnace.
If the priestess discovers the secret of that thing, even if it's not used to enhance her strength,
Just the discovery of something so cruel would probably lead her to regard it as an evil spirit.
That was clearly a treasure.
However, even after sensing Cui Zi's powerful spiritual energy, he was still worried and rushed over to check on her.
When he saw that thing still located somewhere on Penglai Island, his anxious and tense expression relaxed.
Then he saw the large ship at sea, and then he saw Midori being held in his arms.
He was especially surprised, never expecting that the priestess would have someone she liked.
He couldn't help but sigh, his words unconsciously carrying a hint of sarcasm, but he quickly realized his lapse in composure and his voice returned to its usual calm tone.
Although now that he has reached the level of a royal-level great demon, his mindset has become more peaceful, and he no longer has much greed.
Previously, in order to improve his strength, he used the Roaring Furnace to refine demonic power, which resulted in the killing of many powerful demons, including even king-level demons.
"That annoying guy."
Suddenly, a detached voice rang out, and the space seemed to freeze.
The bald old man was immediately trembling, his eyes widened, and the shock in his heart was indescribable.
At this moment, he felt as if he were being stared at by a world-destroying demon, and a chilling feeling welled up from the bottom of his heart. His soul seemed to have fallen into the deepest abyss.
He followed the sound and saw the man holding Cui Zi, looking into his emotionless, blood-red eyes.
Before he could finish speaking, his body was engulfed in flames and burst into flames, and a painful scream immediately rang out.
However, the wail was abruptly cut off as soon as it was heard, and was sealed in a space.
At this moment, he was filled with regret. Why did he come to join the fun? Why did he come to check?
After all these years, it's not like no priestesses have ever come here.
Although they were only fighting those great demons and didn't discover that thing,
But generally speaking, those witches wouldn't easily destroy it.
Even if it were destroyed, he would at most suffer a severe blow to his vitality. Moreover, even a typical high priestess couldn't harm that thing, let alone destroy it.
But it was too late for regrets now; he hadn't expected to encounter such a terrifying opponent.
He was completely powerless to fight back and could only let Xue Lingfeng torture him relentlessly.
"It seems that I'll have to seal off the surrounding space when I want to tease my beautiful high priestess Midori from now on, otherwise there will always be some eyesores."
Xue Lingfeng pressed her face against Cui Zi's pretty face and whispered.
His words made Cui Zi roll her eyes at him, "That scoundrel."
"But I didn't expect that there was a royal-level great demon hidden there."
Cui Zi looked at the old man still engulfed in flames and spoke. However, as she looked at the slowly burning figure, she glanced at Xue Lingfeng again.
That villain is incredibly petty; he clearly knew that even a powerful demon of the royal level wouldn't last a second against him.
He insisted on burning and tormenting him with that strange, evil flame; he truly deserves to be called a demon.
"Who told him to interrupt my banter with Cui Zi?" Xue Lingfeng said with a light laugh, seemingly knowing what Cui Zi was thinking.
"A royal-level great demon!" Lingyue Fairy said in shock, her eyes wide. A royal-level great demon was already incredibly powerful in the demon realm.
But unexpectedly, there was a royal-level great demon here, even stronger than a king-level great demon.
Each of these Emperor-level demons was enough to intimidate the demon realm, yet they were now completely immobilized under Xue Lingfeng's control, burned alive with just a single word.
She stared at the raging flames, her heart filled with shock; the intensity of the flames was truly unimaginable.
Xue Lingfeng focused his gaze on Penglai Island, and the island immediately began to shake violently. Then, a huge object slowly floated up.
The thing was entirely yellow, had three legs, and resembled an alchemy furnace.
"Huh, what's this?" Kanade glanced at the object.
"So there's something like this on Penglai Island?"
None of the ancient texts I consulted mentioned anything about such a thing existing on Penglai Island.
However, after a moment's thought, Zouhime understood.
Previously, Penglai Island was only known through the villagers' records when they went out fishing. They only knew that sometimes corpses floated on the sea. They had never been inside the island, so they naturally did not know the specific situation on the island.
"It looks like a pill-refining furnace." Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and glanced at the enormous pill-refining furnace.
She really didn't expect to see such an alchemy furnace here.
"However, this thing is of average quality, barely qualifying as a mid-grade magic artifact."
"This is the most precious thing on Penglai Island." Seeing everyone's doubts, Xue Lingfeng said, "It is because of this thing that there is a struggle between the great demons, half-demons and the four war gods on the island."
"Is that so?" Kanade nodded upon hearing this. She hadn't expected that this thing was the root of the monsters' struggle.
"This thing is called an alchemy furnace. Alchemy seems to be a term unique to the continent on the other side."
"This thing is their best tool for improving their strength." Everyone looked puzzled when they heard Xue Lingfeng say this.
The chat group members, including Midori and Kasumigaoka Utaha, naturally knew that alchemy was a good way to improve strength, but did those monsters also know how to alchemy?
This made the women present even more confused, as they didn't understand what alchemy really meant.
