Chapter 466: Chapter 496: Unexpected Reinforcements
The resurrection of Zi E shocked Baiyu immensely.
He had witnessed with his own eyes when Zi E died.
He was even afraid that this damn Demon Race member wasn’t dead for sure and stabbed her many times, almost cremating her on the spot.
How could she still come back to life?
Baiyu was bewildered.
However, seeing the venomous expression on Zi E’s face and her aura much weaker than before.
He instantly understood.
Even if the other side could resurrect, it must have come at a huge cost.
Moreover, this kind of resurrection is clearly not something everyone can enjoy.
Otherwise, the Demon Race would have already dominated the entire Spirit Realm and Canglan Star, and they wouldn’t have had to bitterly withstand the East Prosperity Imperial’s onslaught?
Recently, from the East Prosperity Imperial frontline reports, the situation for the Demon Race wasn’t good.
The Battle of Zenith City completely enraged the Imperial.
Under the attack of the massive army.
Even with the help of Wumian Mansion and the Flesh and Blood Research Association, these two Great Demon forces, the Demon Race was still on a losing streak.
But this time, without any S Level sealing objects to give them a chance to stir up chaos at the rear.
"Surprised to see me?"
Zi E looked at Baiyu coldly, her eyes were like looking at a dead man: "I remember clearly the enmity of Zenith City, have you forgotten?"
At this moment, being recognized by Baiyu.
She wasn’t in a hurry to take action.
Spirit Technique restrictions were set around the Earl’s Mansion, making it difficult for even birds to escape.
And the Forbidden Armament on Baiyu’s body was indeed troublesome.
Now.
She wanted to thoroughly torment the prey before her.
Although the order from the Fourth Celestial Demon King was to capture Baiyu alive, it didn’t specify in what condition.
The Demon Race had certain Spirit Techniques.
Even if only a head remained, they could keep the opponent alive.
Bringing back just a head was considered completing the task, just like bringing back the entire person.
"Hey, didn’t you invade my homeland, kill countless people, and finally get blasted apart?
And now you’re blaming me?
If you had stayed honestly in the Spirit Realm, in the Demon Race’s territory, who would trouble you?
Being so shameless, do your parents know?
Did you receive any higher education?
If I were your mentor and taught someone like you, I’d dig a pit and bury myself out of shame."
Baiyu stared at the other, striving to find any flaws.
Although the opponent’s aura wasn’t as powerful as before, her combat power remained formidable, and given she dared to attack, she must be confident.
The current situation.
Was somewhat difficult.
Qiong Xue and Ning Huanran’s situations were still unclear.
"In hindsight, I should’ve been more cautious, the Earl’s Mansion colluding with the Demon Race, that’s utterly surprising."
Baiyu thought to himself.
Collaboration with alien races, regardless of identity, according to East Prosperity Imperial law, is to be executed directly.
And everyone has the right to execute them.
Count Bene held a significant status and position.
With such an estate, she lived a life akin to an immortal.
No one would have thought she had connections with the Demon Race.
But at present.
Apparently, their collaboration wasn’t solid and had developed cracks, which was why Count Bene deliberately exposed a flaw to warn Baiyu.
"Less nonsense, you know yourself how long your Forbidden Armament can last.
When you’re exhausted.
It will be your death day!
No, no.
I won’t kill you; I’ll make you suffer more than death."
Zi E revealed her sharp fangs, her pretty face full of resentment and hatred.
At this moment.
Baiyu didn’t panic at all.
If the heart is disturbed, the breath will be chaotic.
This way.
You’ll die even faster.
"Alas, it seems you’ve forgotten that I still have a sealing object that can summon a giant."
Baiyu sighed, suddenly showing a sympathetic expression: "Haven’t you realized you’re just a pawn?
Sent alone to the most prosperous city of the East Prosperity Imperial.
The task is to capture an empire’s pillar, the leader of a major extraordinary organization.
This kind of task.
Isn’t it sending you to die?
If you still carried a sealing object to summon a giant on you, there might be a sliver of hope, but do you have it?
Isn’t it because you lost a power struggle within the Demon Race and got sent here to die?"
Baiyu’s voice was like a heavy blow, striking into Zi E’s heart.
She hadn’t previously thought in that direction.
Of course.
No Demon Race people would think this way.
Because the orders from the Fourth Celestial Demon King were followed unconditionally by the Demon Race, they wouldn’t even contemplate the deeper meaning.
The Fourth Celestial Demon King was the strongest of the Demon Race.
His commands.
Were immutable and inviolable mandates.
No one dared to question the Celestial Demon King’s decisions, not even Zi E, being the Celestial Demon King’s own child, would question them.
However.
Baiyu’s words at this moment made her heart skip a beat.
Previously, she indeed wouldn’t think this way.
But now that she’d been resurrected and sent alone to Villiduo.
The only resource she could utilize was Count Bene.
If she had no grievances in her heart, that was absolutely impossible.
But.
Having Baiyu point it out at this moment was something else entirely.
She even suspected if her father had abandoned her, planning to clear the path for her brother Zi Luo to lead the Demon Race.
"Stop talking nonsense, don’t think I don’t know your schemes inside your head."
Zi E forced out the chaotic thoughts in her mind, her expression grim.
Baiyu said, "Anyway, I place my words here, believe it or not. If I were you, I’d turn around and slap that so-called Celestial Demon King a few times."
"Impudent, you seek death!"
Zi E’s eyes flared with anger, her whole body surged with Blood Qi, turning once again into a black shadow attacking.
At this moment.
She no longer held back any strength, giving her all, even under Forbidden Armament, Baiyu felt pressured.
