Chapter 922 - 922 14.198 Last Violet Star - Targeting Devil Fennu and Jin Baihua.

922 14.198 Last Violet Star – Targeting Devil Fennu and Jin Baihua.

The interior of the Western city is safe. All civilians were tasked to lock themselves inside their houses and were forbidden to come out. The joyous market in the city is desolated even though the roads were emptied by ordinary humans. Only the Immortal Soldiers and cultivators of the four great clans gathered under the lead of Sect Master Yun.

They didn’t come out of the city right away as the demon race attacked the other human survivors living outside the city. The screams of agony and terror unfold before their eyes. The young ones were afraid while the old ones were worrying.

Yun Huaxia waited until all the humans outside the gate were wiped out before making his decision to move. Suddenly Devil Qingyu and Cao Roulan walked past him toward the gates and whispered a few words to him.

Cao Roulan spoke, “Our prey has appeared... We’ll go ahead now.”

“Sect Master Yun, Sect Master Bai, Sect Master Jin, and Madam Jin can go after us to eliminate the rest of the demons attacking us. Leave those two flying for us to complete our task from the Lord. Please excuse us.” Devil Qingyu said.

Bai Qiyin stopped Devil Qingyu for a moment and asked, “Where’s your child? You can bring it to fight with you outside.”

“I’ve left him with the Lords as their children’s playmate.” Devil Qingyu answered.

“We are going now.”

Lu Yi’s voice was heard but cannot be seen by them. Obviously, he and Lu Er were now wearing a talisman that made them invisible for a while as they followed Devil Qingyu and Cao Roulan outside. Their target is the same as the target task of Devil Qingyu and Devil Baoshi inside of Cao Roulan.

.....

Yun Huaxia can’t see them but still send them off, “Be careful. Always be on guard. I wish you victory.”

“We wish you victory!”

They walk out of the gates under the eyes of everyone. The low-class demons waiting outside jumped on them as soon as they got out but suddenly stopped when they saw Devil Qingyu’s appearance. After all, Devil Qingyu is also a high-ranking devil like Devil Fennu demons would not attack him.

Lu Yi and Lu Er were invisible so the demons didn’t notice them. No one was able to hinder these four people from doing their mission. They all flew toward the sky and surrounded Devil Fennu and Jin Baihua.

Because of the sudden surprise attack, Devil Qingyu successfully sneaks behind Devil Fennu and separates Jin Baihua from him. Out of nowhere, Jin Baihua kicked away from Devil Fennu and caught the two by surprise.

Kicked away from Devil Fennu, Jin Baihua exclaimed, “Ahh!! Who the fuck kicked me!?”

“Bai’er, be careful! Something is not right!!!” Devil Fennu said.

Just when Devil Fennu was about to fly towards Jin Baihua, he felt a danger targeting his neck and instinctively dodge it. A light trace of a cut on his neck was found bleeding. Devil Fennu also felt his strength was being taken to him and attacked where his strength flew towards but as expected his attack was parried.

Tsk!

Thoughts of Devil Fennu, ‘Just now the weapon used on me is dangerous. It prevents a Devil’s regeneration. Only a Demon Slayer Weapon had such an effect. Plus, my qi was being stolen... No, eaten... Only Baoshi had this skill. Don’t tell me his vessel, that little girl is doing this?’

Devil Fennu made some guesses in his heart about his invisible enemies while dodging invisible attacks just by his instinct toward danger. But even if dodges, traces of cuts on his body still appear.

“Two people. One of them is... Baoshi, are you sure you are going to take the side of the humans!?” Devil Fennu yells.

Of course, no one responded to the figure of Cao Roulan showing herself before Devil Fennu. Her eyes were cold and indifferent and no one could ignore the hatred flashing on her irises.

Cao Roulan retorted to Devil Fennu’s words and said, “Why do you question A’Bao with such a nonsense question? Since you choose to side with your own vessel, who are you to question my devil?”

Devil Fennu remained calm under such eyes full of hatred. He was looking around trying to feel where the other hidden person was. He is sure in his heart that there are two attackers on his side.

“There is not only you. There is supposed to be one more. At first, I thought Baoshi also returned to his vessel. It seems he didn’t since I can feel his soul in your body which can only mean... There is one more targeting me. Who are you? Show yourself!”

Devil Fennu reasoned out. His explanations were heard by his two attackers but they weren’t surprised of being caught by this man. Among all the devils in the Seven Deadly Sins, this person was only second to his highness, Ye Zihao.

Devil Qingyu showed himself before Devil Fennu his eyes were full of smiles and his whole being was emitting seductiveness that won’t be lost to an incubus or succubus. Wearing a bright crimson robe on his light-colored skin, he looked like a seductress if not for the silver daggers he held in his hands.

“It’s been a while, Brother Fenfen. Do you miss Qingqing? Hm~” Devil Qingyu said, flashing his charm skill towards Devil Fennu intentionally.

Devil Fennu frown as he cut himself to keep his mind sane before the Devil that Rules Lust like Devil Qingyu. Even for Devils like him, no one could reject the charm effect Devil Qingyu has. If one is not as decisive as Devil Fennu who used self-harm to keep his mind sane, one would become Devil Qingyu’s slave under his power.

“Qingyu! You are still alive?! Impossible! Your traces disappeared in Death Valley and even no traces of your soul were left behind! How can you still be alive?” asked Devil Fennu in shock.

Devil Qingyu flashes another wave of charm skill while giving a fox-like smile toward Devil Fennu. He wanted to take his time and try to catch this man off guard and let him fall for his skill. That would make their battle easier as the strength of Devil Fennu is ahead of him even if he combines all his skills with Devil Baoshi.

Devil Fennu once again leaves a deep cut on his arm with his eyes bloodshot and cold while staring at the two Devils who were once part of the Seven Deadly Sins. Devil Qingyu, the devil that rules lust. Devil Baoshi, the Gluttonous Devil. Both were high-ranking devils but at this time. They fought for the sake of the human race.

Devil Baoshi siding with the humans can be understood. His vessel is a little human girl after all. But Devil Qingyu is using his real body. There is no way this man will be fighting against his race unless there is something for him. Something that is very important that he could throw away his own race just for this one thing alone.

Moreover, it is impossible for Devil Qingyu to be alive. His soul was cut by the God of Punishment’s scythe. That is a weapon that is deadly for both Gods and Devil which is why King Wuan was feared and revered by all. This weapon is his trademark and the thing that made him the God of Punishment and Ruler of the Underworld.

Devil Fennu finally recalled Hei Anjing. Knowing that this man is the Ruler of the Underworld and Juedi (Death Scythe) he could somehow guess something in his heart. Moreover, he knew the deepest secret Devil Qingyu had hidden from his other co-devil. Devil Qingyu is a high-ranking devil that has completely fallen in love with a human. Among them, he is the very first one to fall in love with a human.

“Did that Exalted Being revive you? And in exchange for killing me, you would regain your freedom and save the soul of your beloved from wherever he is. Where did you end up after death?” asked Devil Fennu.

“In the land of endless torture and agony, the Purgatory. If Brother Fenfen dies under our hands you and your little kin would also end up there. In that place, you cannot protect your precious little kin. You will watch him get tortured by flames and by those Underworld beings without being able to do anything. You as well will get torture yourself. There is no way out unless your sentence period is finished or you were pardoned early as I do. But King Wuan isn’t simple... He will only pardon one when he feels like there is a need for it. Like. How am I able to appear before you, Brother Fenfen?” Explained Devil Qingyu.

“Brother Fenfen, can you die for me?” Devil Qingyu used his charm abilities at Devil Fennu at the right moment and was able to catch the man off guard. Whether it had his desired effect or not at least he had slowed down this man for a few seconds which is enough for Devil Baoshi to eat his demonic qi and weakened him quite a bit.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the fight, Lu Yi watches his little brother fight with Jin Baihua. As expected, Lu Er is weaker compared to Jin Baihua who had completely turned himself into a devil. So, Lu Yi had to interfere many times to catch Jin Baihua off guard and allowed Lu Er’s attack to pass. In Jin Baihua’s eyes, Lu Yi’s saber attacks are more dangerous than Lu Er’s fist. So he would dodge Lu Yi’s attack even if he gets hit by Lu Er.

Jin Baihua got punched multiple times by Lu Er. The latter was like a madman and would target his face every single time. One can see that Lu Er is venting his anger while the two had no apparent reason to kill him Jin Baihua knew these two were here to capture him alive instead.

Lu Er was screaming furiously, “Agh! You damn traitor! I will beat you up for the sake of everyone who died before the demons. You betrayed your own race! You fucking piece of trash!”

“I betrayed the human race. That is my choice. Why should I side with the mortal who condemns my existence from the very beginning? Is it wrong for me to be born illegitimate? It was that damn father of mine who would accept me when he himself had countless wives in his palace. Just because my mother is from a brothel, is he a mere beast to look down on us!?”

“I never cared about his damn money or clan anyway. I just want a proper burial for my mother. He couldn’t even give me that. That goddamn villagers are no good as well. Can’t they wait for my return and not touch my mother’s remains? They fucking threw my mother’s corpse in the mass grave when I come back not even a single bone remains.”

“That hypocrite half-elder brother (Jin Shiyan) of mine. He would only lend help if he feels like it but would forget it every time his fiancée comes over. Leaving me waiting for nothing like the fool I am. He never cared about me at all. The elders of the Jin Clan all look at me like I’m some kind of garbage. They never treated me as the young master that I am supposed to be!”

“The Jin Tiangui Sect is also not good. Those weakling disciples, they couldn’t even defeat me but would always tale behind my back. They would sometimes speak as if I was not there. Who the hell are they!?”

Lu Er asked but he didn’t deny any of Jin Baihua’s words as all of them were truth that even he can’t say that it was wrong, “How about Yun-Shixiong!? Didn’t he treat you kindly? Is he not someone from the mortal realm in your eyes? Big Brother Yun had always treated you kindly and cared for you and he would sometimes fight with Xiao Qi because of it. But in the end, you also didn’t care for him and allied yourself with the devils!!!”

“Shut up! What do you know!? You have an elder brother who would protect and love you unconditionally. You have a clan that respected you from the very beginning and you were never an illegitimate child. What can you understand when you were born with everything while as for me, who was born with anything good would have to lower myself under your gaze just so you can see me! This world is unfair from the beginning and it treated me the worse compared to you young masters.”

“I hated you and Bai Yin the most, you know. You are both weak. Weaker than me. My talents are higher than you two combine but just because you were born in a prominent family. Just because you have elder brothers who love and spoil you regardless of your usefulness. That you are able to stand above me!”

“So I destroyed everything for you. If this realm is gone your so-called Prominent Clan and Great Sect would no longer exist. Didn’t I also successfully kill your elder brother in the end? Heh~” said Jin Baihua.

The last sentence Jin Baihua had spoken pricked Lu Er’s heart and his hatred for this man flared a dozen times. Lu Yi’s death was something that happened to keep him alive. It was the event that left the deepest thorn in Lu Er’s heart the most. The fact that his elder brother’s death was because he can escape from the demons made Lu Er regret that he is Lu Yi’s younger brother.

“You bastard! I will kill you!” Lu Er yells in rage.
