This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered

Yue Bai was momentarily taken aback by the sudden turn of events, which she had not anticipated in the slightest.

But Yue Bai didn't ponder over it; behind her, the six tails lashed out, and the intangible Yin Thunder followed closely behind Elder Tangerine's steps, rushing towards the three from the Zen Buddhist Sect.

Compared to the three strangers from the Zen Buddhist Sect, she would rather trust Elder Tangerine, who was her companion. Yue Bai believed that if Liang Yi and Youyi had been there, they would have acted just as she did.

Mi Sheng and Mi Le's expressions were much like Yue Bai's at the moment—all showing baffled and incomprehensible looks, not understanding why this Demon Clan Young Master would suddenly turn to attack them.

But of course, they couldn't just allow Elder Tangerine's assault to land on them without responding, so even with some confusion, Mi Sheng and Mi Le revealed a statue of the Buddha from Zen, preparing to seek clarity.

"Mi Sui, be careful, this unassuming Demon Clan Young Master is not simple."

Mi Sheng reminded his junior without even looking back, cautioning him not to take their opponent lightly.

However, just as they were about to make their move, an all too familiar Fist Intent exploded behind them!

Only this time, the Fist Intent they were familiar with lacked its usual righteousness, and was filled with a loathsome and sinister strangeness!

"Mi Sui, you!!"

Taken completely off guard by the betrayal of a loved one from behind, Mi Sheng furiously turned around to yell, with the Essence Blood uncontrollably spurting from his mouth after taking a full-powered punch from his junior.

If not for the fact that Elder Tangerine's feigned attack had put them on alert beforehand, the two of them, already gravely injured, would likely have perished right there.

And the back-stabbing Mi Sui—where was the frail appearance from just now? His current aura was as though he were at his peak, and even stronger than at his peak with the power of the Abyss Demon Fog!

"So you've been deceiving us from the start!"

Mi Le looked at his young junior wrapped in the Abyss Demon Fog with a gaze full of sorrow and pity.

It turned out that Mi Sui had been eroded by the Abyss Demon Fog from some unknown point in time, completely turning into an Abyss Cultivator.

Everything just now was Si Feihang's strategy! Perhaps he was simply waiting for a chance to ambush them.

Wei Ruo, observing this scene, had an epiphany. No wonder she felt something off about the last of those three from the Zen Buddhist Sect—this individual had already been eroded by the Abyss Demon Fog to the final step during the fight with Si Feihang, just missing a spark to ignite it.

And Si Feihang's roar just now was precisely that spark, officially transforming Mi Sui into an Abyss Cultivator.

Now Mi Sui no longer looked like the refined monk. The golden light of the Buddhist Sect that once shone around him was gone, replaced by the sinister twists of the Abyss Demon Fog. The high and profound scriptures on his Kasaya, now twisted by the corrosion of the Abyss Demon Fog, became ominous. Should one recite this scripture, their faith would turn from Buddha to the Abyss.

Elder Tangerine, leaping towards the battle, casually swept aside the two shaven-headed and deeply physically and emotionally wounded men, and with a claw struck out towards Mi Sui.

He had no relationship with these bald monks, and Mi Sui turning into an Abyss Cultivator elicited no particular feeling in him, so his actions were naturally ruthless!

The mighty Astral Wind wrapped around Elder Tangerine's claws, which were several times larger than a human face, as he struck unhesitatingly at Mi Sui's head.

"This big boss here presents you with your favorite smack across the face, meow!"

In Elder Tangerine's eyes, any Abyss Cultivator deserved the same treatment—to be killed. Who cared whether you were an ally just a second ago?

The earth-shattering power was limitless. The pressure from Elder Tangerine's claws even caused rifts in space itself.

Although Mi Sui had become an Abyss Cultivator, his memories were completely intact; his allegiance had shifted wholly to the Abyss.

So he knew that this Demon Clan Young Master was extremely difficult to handle and didn't plan to clash head-on, opting instead to evade and seek a strategy.

Si Feihang's order was clear—to wait for an opportunity to ambush from the outside. He wanted to see if Mi Sheng and Mi Le could escape from their encirclement.

Once there was a hint of this happening, Mi Sui would launch an ambush, turning hope into despair.

However, the sudden turn of events was a bit unexpected, as Si Feihang was in a precarious situation under Liang Yi's offensive, like a small boat in a storm at any moment of capsizing.

Liang Yi and Su Youyi shattered the Mo Cang Zhao Tian Spear, causing severe damage to Si Feihang but also snapping him out of his irrational state.

Even though he was significantly weakened, facing Liang Yi who sought his demise, Si Feihang wouldn't bluntly offer his head; he could still hold on for a bit longer.

Facing the overpowering Liang Yi, the mysterious Sword Intent around him sealed all his escape paths. Attempting to exchange blows by taking advantage of the Realm's superiority, he found Liang Yi's Vitality to be horrifyingly robust, akin to Body Cultivation. Moreover, coupled with Liang Yi's unparalleled Swordsmanship, Si Feihang felt he had narrowly cheated death several times.

Since there were no breakthroughs against Liang Yi, Si Feihang could only try his luck from the outside world.

That mysterious trump card, unknown to all, was none other than Mi Sui, who he had converted into an Abyss Cultivator.
