Chapter 290: Battle

Translator: Henyee Translations       Editor: Henyee Translations

Because Devon was injured and his stamina was not as good as before, he actually gave Cheng Xi a chance to struggle. If it were any other time, he would have directly pressed her down and not let her have the time to struggle here.

He gritted his teeth and used a spell to make Cheng Xi listen. Cheng Xi immediately felt that her body was disobedient. When Devon said to leave, she followed mechanically.

Cheng Xi knew that she had no way of staying. Fortunately, her mouth was still under her control. She kept scolding Devon to make him give up on smuggling overseas.

“Let go of Aunt Cheng Xi.” Just as Cheng Xi was in despair, Yunbao shouted.

Cheng Xi looked in the direction of the voice. Gu Yu was flying in the air with Yunbao in her arms, looking like a god had descended to save her.

Cheng Xi almost cried when she saw them arrive. She was really afraid that she would have to follow Devon. Moreover, she had been worried about their safety just now. She was finally relieved to see them.

Devon was very surprised that they could appear, and they didn’t seem to be injured. He said, “The two of you are lucky not to have died. This is a matter between us as husband and wife. I advise you not to interfere.”

“Even if you’re husband and wife, you can’t bully others. Aunt Cheng Xi doesn’t want to leave with you at all,” Yunbao pointed at Devon and said.

The rules of the adult world were useless to children. She did not understand what it meant to be husband and wife at all. She only knew that she had to bring Aunt Cheng Xi back.

Devon had no intention of continuing with her. He pulled Cheng Xi and was about to teleport away, but no matter how fast he was, he could not be faster than Glutinous Rice Ball. It could almost be used as a plane in this forest. From the sky, they could see clearly where Devon was running.

Yunbao took out her wand and aimed it at Devon. However, Devon and Cheng Xi were too close, so Yunbao did not dare to use many of her attacks. This greatly reduced the strength of her attacks.

Devon also noticed this and simply pulled Cheng Xi to the front to block. He knew that Yunbao would definitely not attack Cheng Xi and did not have to worry about her safety.

However, in Gu Yu’s eyes, Devon was really not a man. He actually let a woman stand in front of him to ensure his safety.

Cheng Xi knew that she had become a hostage now, so she quickly struggled crazily to cause trouble for Devon. With her actions, Devon couldn’t see what Yunbao was going to do next.

Yunbao quickly put away her wand and took out the crystal ball. The resentment she had placed in Devon’s body last time should still be there.

“All living things, listen up, purify!” As Yunbao chanted the incantation, Devon’s energy began to be sucked away endlessly.

The crystal ball swallowed Devon’s energy like a sponge absorbing water. This was the last scene he wanted to see. Without energy, he really wouldn’t be able to take Cheng Xi away.

Devon desperately tried to stop the energy from being sucked away. He took out a bottle of potion and drank it in one gulp. This time, a huge energy light burst out from his body. The crystal ball could not withstand so much energy at all. Yunbao quickly put away the crystal ball to prevent it from shattering. Devon laughed and said, “Let’s see what else you can do now.”

Just as Yunbao was feeling anxious, Purple Eye floated out of the bracelet and said, “I think he doesn’t want to live anymore. He dares to drink such a potion that stimulates all the potential in his body. When the medicinal effect fades, he will be weak for a long time. Moreover, according to the rules of the world, energy is conserved. This energy will only be exchanged with his lifespan.”

When Yunbao saw Purple Eye, she was especially happy and said, “Aunt Purple, how should I deal with Devon?”

Purple Eye smiled and said, “There’s no need to put in any effort at all. As long as he exhausts his current energy, he will immediately become an ordinary person who can’t use spells. He will need at least half a year to recover.”

Yunbao quickly told Gu Yu this method. He thought for a moment and said, “Devon now has a huge amount of energy. Even if the two of us work together, we might not be able to exhaust his energy.”

When Purple Eye heard him say this, she smiled and said, “Don’t forget that you still have Yaya and Glutinous Rice Ball. It’s definitely not a problem for four people to fight him alone.”

Only then did Gu Yu remember that they had helpers. In that case, they would definitely be able to fight Devon. Gu Yu picked up her wand and said, “We just have to hold on until Big Brother arrives. At that time, Devon won’t be able to escape.”

Yaya was also summoned to prepare for battle. Seeing that a great battle was imminent, Devon said, “If you don’t want Cheng Xi to die, put down your wands.”

As he said this, he pressed the knife to Cheng Xi’s neck. Cheng Xi shouted, “Don’t worry about me. You must remember to save Lily..”
