Inner Demons

Chapter 112: The Apex Predator

Dust mist agitated from fighting Dragon Son already dispersed, air still had fishy sweet smell of blood flowed by Li Yunxin.

Collapsed broken walls filled with slight earthy smell, crushed scattered flowers and trees in yard still left rich fragrance.

In such a night, moment, Lingkongzi breathed out slightly, with imperceptible posture, adjusted her body to combat state again.

Heartstrings tight, warning signs loud. Even more than facing Ninth Prince and Li Yunxin just now—this woman... when appeared!?

She was covered with magic weapons, so when facing great demon like Ninth Prince, not struggling. But woman before eyes...

She couldn't see through.

Because no matter how looked, how sensed, only felt ordinary person.

So she subconsciously tightened grip on that white thin sword in hand, which killed Ninth Prince, Li Yunxin, asked: "Who is the lady?"

Dog barking faintly from distance, also human voices.

Don't know which bold one, seeing both died near here... went to report. Weicheng after all under Son of Heaven. Immortals fighting mortals helpless, but matter here "settled", government not appearing, couldn't be justified. But that black donkey riding woman, only stared at sword in her hand.

Stared for a while, swung leg off donkey back. She and Lingkongzi similar stature, although dressed plainly like humble family girl, still an extremely outstanding beauty—compared to Lingkongzi's gorgeousness, had another flavor.

She didn't answer. Stood firm, moved gaze from that sword, to Lingkongzi's face. Then raised hand, beckoned gently.

Lingkongzi suspected she wanted to attack, subconsciously raised sword to block. But that sword in palm... swoosh sound escaped her control, flew to that woman's hand!

She was Manifestation Peak high person, flesh body strength exceeded mortal imagination. Holding sword although fingers looked slender white tender, such fingers infused with spiritual power, two could easily crush strong man's arm bone.

But now this sword easily escaped from her palm because...

This sword, turned into a feather.

When it fell into that woman's hand, already became a pure white, long quill feather. At this time Lingkongzi realized that thin sword's previous shape, indeed very like a slender feather.

She rubbed this feather gently, raised hand put into sleeve.

Then, finally smiled, said: "Me."

“I am called Bai Yunxin. I am Li Yunxin's good friend, he is mine.”

“Did you also kill Dragon Little Nine with this feather? He is also mine.”

Bai Yunxin raised head slightly, widened a pair of swiveling big eyes, looking at Lingkongzi, asked her like a real seventeen eighteen year old girl: "You say, why, kill them?"

Just at this moment, Lingkongzi convinced, this was a demon.

Great Demon. Far stronger than Ninth Dragon Son, great demon!

Such weird evil aura... was faintly revealed from her hair, clothes, every sentence.

Humans, didn't have such smell.

She weighed quickly between fleeing and fighting, slowly said: "That Ninth Dragon Son, snatched my Daoist Orthodoxy magic weapon, insisted not returning. That Li Yunxin... was suicide."

“My Daoist Orthodoxy, Langya Grotto-Heaven treasure—Luo Shu, Feather Cloak. Also Twin Saints' treasure—Lucid Jade Slip...”

Said here, interrupted by Bai Yunxin's laughter.

She seemed to hear something specially interesting, covered mouth, chuckled. But voice although light soft, strangely clear, as if from this Dragon King Temple ruins, could transmit straight to Nine Heavens.

At this time, government officials finally arrived, only saw two beautiful women talking.

Leading official watched carefully for a while, realized matter... seemed not ended as they thought. Because that mouth covering laughing girl, although laughing, making sound, but two eyes, still roundly staring, didn't curve or squint like ordinary people—as if born unable to curve eyes... looked very weird.

She stared with eyes like this for a while, put down hand, expression suddenly cold.

“Feather Cloak?” She said grimly, seem harboring chest full of anger. "Daoist Orthodoxy magic weapon? Fart your mother's fart!"

But said this sentence, hurriedly covered mouth again: "Aiya... cannot speak like this. You... all heard?"

This sentence, asked those officials—her other hand twisting clothes corner, really like a girl did wrong thing afraid of being discovered.

Even slow people realized situation unusual. Leading official subconsciously pressed waist short knife, retreated a step: "We..."

“Must have heard.” Bai Yunxin frowned. "Troublesome."

Voice fell, swung arm casually. Large patch of feather-like afterimages appeared with arm, rapidly soaring—that official hadn't finished words, stopped.

A breath later, he and twenty thirty people behind, upper body slid down together—revealing extremely smooth neat cut. Remnant bodies not landed yet, row of houses behind them, rumbling began collapsing, rising large smoke. Rumbling sound made by houses collapsing, extended for miles—

Wait till smoke finally dispersed, Lingkongzi realized...

Bai Yunxin's casual strike just now...

Destroyed half Taoxi Road!

This wasn't... this absolutely isn't... absolutely absolutely isn't... Manifestation Peak her, could handle, top predator among demons!

Even abandoning full body magic weapons, probably no assurance of retreating completely!

Bai Yunxin stared dead at Lingkongzi again, revealing mouthful of fine white small teeth: "Return Feather Cloak! Return Little Nine!! Return Soul Food!!!"

This sharp high-pitched voice out, Liu Ling rose to sky without hesitation, flying straight North! Magic weapons on body flashed together, like a colorful meteor, in blink of eye, fled hundreds of meters!

But next moment, everyone in Weicheng heard rumbling series of loud noises shaking doors and windows—

Night sky suddenly exploded a conical white cloud, closely followed by second, third, fourth—series of sonic boom clouds formed when exceeding sound speed almost bloomed in Weicheng sky at same instant, chasing Lingkongzi's figure! Finally around that colorful cultivator body suddenly exploded large blooming golden light...

Like a bird with broken wings, fell obliquely into mountain forest outside Weicheng!

This night, this moment, almost everyone heard a sharp, high-pitched, almost ear-piercing crane cry at same time, and white crane illusion flashing in sky, wings almost covering entire Weicheng!

And the little black donkey left in place, waited for a while, seeing no owner, trotted along road, avoiding broken walls, slowly walked towards direction owner flew.

Walked few steps, suddenly stopped, sneezed, shook ears doubtfully.

Because...

Whole Weicheng, suddenly quieted down.

After Bai Yunxin fought Lingkongzi away, this whole city, whole city inhabited by hundreds of thousands population, suddenly quieted down.

They felt sleepy at same time, slept at same time, in such a night originally impossible to sleep peacefully.

Hundreds of thousands people's Yang energy, began to flow.
