Chapter 779: Unanticipated Gathering of Familiar Individuals
Shenlian Yinzhu and Jun Mu Yang fought fiercely against Demon King Shi. After exchanging countless blows and countering each other’s strategies, Shi Ji’s narrowed eyes gleamed with curiosity. He finally asked, "Who are you?"
Jun Mu Yang smirked, his tone laced with playful mockery. "That’s a question you should ponder after we send you to hell."
"Send me to hell? Have you even checked if hell can withstand my presence?" Shi Ji scoffed, his voice tinged with amusement.
Shenlian Yinzhu stepped forward, his aura crackling ominously in the air. His expression was cold, but his words were razor-sharp. "What’s truly pathetic is that even hell finds you intolerable."
"Pathetic?" Shi Ji’s irritation flickered as his gaze darkened. "You dare speak of pathetic when your power is a mere whisper compared to the roar of mine? Or do you already know why hell won’t take me?" His irritation gave way to a dry chuckle, his voice thick with disdain.
"You think we care to know?" Jun Mu Yang laughed, the sound light and crisp, yet dripping with defiance.
Shi Ji’s lips twitched in irritation. No one had ever spoken to him so boldly before. Still, as a great demon, he quickly suppressed his annoyance. He nodded slowly, a dangerous smirk forming. "You’re right. It’s irrelevant to you, because none of you will live long enough to find out." His figure flickered, vanishing and reappearing above their heads. With swift and intricate movements, his hands wove a spell as he launched a renewed assault.
The three clashed in a flurry of power, each attack tearing through the air like thunder. It was clear that either Jun Mu Yang or Shenlian Yinzhu alone could hold their own against Shi Ji, but they had no intention of dragging this out. They fought together to end it quickly.
Elsewhere, the battles reached their peak. Shenlian Yinzhu suddenly withdrew from the fight with Shi Ji, leaving Jun Mu Yang to handle the Demon King. He appeared beside Shenlian Yingyue just in time to intervene. As Demon Prince Xie attempted to interfere in her clash with Infernal Volcanic, Shenlian Yinzhu raised his hand, casting a spell that struck the prince hard.
Shenlian Yingyue, caught off guard, glanced at her brother, then nodded in gratitude as she dodged another relentless attack from Infernal Volcanic. The strikes came like an unending storm, fierce and unrelenting.
"Fuxk!" Bi Xie snarled, her temper boiling over as she wiped blood from her face, her expression twisted with rage. "How dare you ambush me, Prince Xie!"
Shenlian Yinzhu’s icy gaze locked onto her. His voice was emotionless, yet carried a deadly chill. "I’ll give you until the count of three to leave my sister’s battle."
