Chapter 714 Ferocious Maidens.
While Shi Lang made his way out of the village after he dropped the cold sentence, the terran made them realize their own mistakes with just one sentence. He was not omnipotent. Fate was cruel, and it would hold one responsible for their wrongdoings.
The villages succumbed to greed and lusted for material. They forsake their morals, and thus, they fall into the traps of the demons. He shunned those who were too blind to see their own mistakes.
He walked out of the village but was stopped in his tracks. Tian Long and Zither Soul stood in the void before him. The terran knew these two were just their spiritual projections, but since they had appeared, it meant they found out about his run-in with the demon god.
Shi Lang sighed and said, "I know what you have come to ask, and because my mood is all fucked up. Let me clarify: I was assigned to locate missing people from this village. They were suspected to have been abducted by a demonic cultivator.
When I found those people, my companions had to face a Yin Demon King and almost died. To make things worse, we were attacked by two more Corpse Refiner Demon Kings. They were protecting a Demon General who wished to exchange three women vessels carrying demonic energy for purer energy that would allow him to ascend two major realms in one go.
I was delayed, and the ritual for summoning was completed. I had to save lives. Even if these women had been tainted and broken by the demonic energy inside their bodies, it was not up to the Demon God to kill them, so I attacked and destroyed the void tunnel with the demon god's hand inside it."
Tian Long and Zither Soul looked at each other, and the latter said, "Lang, you will not have to take any more tasks. Just go into seclusion and reach the Forger City."
Shi Lang raised his eyebrows and asked, "I lack resources and need to earn them. I have to support my wife, you know."
Tian Long sighed and said, "Even my spiritual avatar finds you annoying and shameless, Scavenger. The wife you wish to support is right now leading the charge against an entire demonic cult that came after a village in her territory. You do not have to worry about her, as for your cultivation. I will have someone deliver you with the goods at the forger city."
Shi Lang pinched his chin and acted as if he was in deep thought. Tian Long said, "Scavenger, do not reach for it."
The terran sighed and said, "Fine, old man, but you need to get me a better armor. I am the champion of your army, yet I have no wealth befitting the title. The people will mock you for being a miser."
Tian Long did not reply to him and vanished from the spot. Zither Soul wanted to say something when she stopped as Shi Lang smiled. She shook her head and said, "Lang, why do you always have to piss him off?"
Shi Lang chuckled and said, "It is so much fun. Hahaha."
The lady shook her head and vanished from the place, too. Shi Lang narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's go, guys."
The duo followed him out of the village. His mind was occupied by the news that Tian Long had broken to him just now. Amelia was fighting against an entire cult of demonic cultivators. Although he knew that a sect backed her, a massive number of experts. This could not make his heart ease up.
...
Amelia did not know that her endeavors had been revealed to her husband. She jumped off the vessel with the rest of the people in tow. The people did not use spiritual energy, as Amelia had told them. They let gravity carry them, and they could only use their spiritual energy to fly when they were close to the ground.
She pointed her sword at the target when they were close to the ground. She channeled spiritual energy inside the weapon, letting it gather at the tip. Then, she shot the ball of spiritual energy at the machine on the ground. This machine was hauling stones at the walls of the village.
Amelia found the weak spot of the machine and directly struck at it. The demonic cultivators were still yet to register what was happening when all the siege machines were hit with such attacks.
A demonic captain yelled, "Enemy attack!!"
They all were ready to unleash their demonic arts when, suddenly, the sky changed color. It was filled with lights of different colors. When the demons looked up, they realized the attack had just begun.
Fifty spirit strikes were unleashed over them and on the ground. The demon forces were hit with a series of attacks that rendered them useless. The impact of these attacks was too devastating. These demonic cultivators were all blood refiners. They wished to massacre the people and use their blood to increase their strength.
However, they did not expect the War Maiden sect to have posted experts here to defend the situation. Amelia was disgusted by the details she read about these people. She moved quickly, and with her sword, she chopped off heads as if they were vegetables in her kitchen.
The people from her sect were also fighting but could not keep up with her flickering figure. Amelia did not kill blindly. She saved the sisters who fought beside her. They were all surprised to see this. Amelia has never received any care from them.
Amelia had a different way of thinking. She was trying to lessen the damage to her strength. These people may not mean anything to her, but they meant something to some people. If she could not even pay attention to the people in her sect, how would she defend the rest of the people?
She was a woman who had served in the army. The first thing they learned was to fight for the person beside them, which was why she stayed in the military. The principles and disciplines suited her very well.
As she moved through the battlefield, she saw that the people on her side had picked up the pace, and she nodded. The spirits of the sect members were ignited as they watched her performance. None of the enemies she met on the way managed to hold a candle to her.
As the blood covered the ground, suddenly, an elder spoke in her mind, "Sect Mistress, I have located the commander of these demons. He is just a few strides ahead of you."
Amelia narrowed her eyes and looked ahead of the crowd. She found a burly man entangled in a battle with Ying Yu. She narrowed her eyes because her friend was overwhelmed in battle. The enemy used a war axe and swung it at the young lady.
Ying Yu raised her sword to block the attack, but the impact still sent her flying through the void. The lady could not hold back and complained, "This guy is strong."
She was about to stand up when Amelia passed her side. She moved quickly, and even Ying Yu was shocked. She exclaimed, "She was still holding back?"
Amelia was moving faster than anyone had ever seen her move before. The young sect mistress was flaunting her potential capital. The demon commander smirked and spat on the ground as he remarked, "Hmph, another bitch in heat."
Amelia narrowed her gaze, and an icy armor appeared on her body. Her sword also turned into a transparent ice weapon. She waved her sword, but the demon commander blocked her attack. He would attack the same way as Ying Yu, but he found that his ax had passed through a void.
He was surprised, but he felt a cold feeling in his abdomen before he could find where Amelia had gone. He gawked and coughed up blood. Amelia appeared behind him, her sword passing through the body of her enemy stained with blood.
She had a cold expression as she withdrew the weapon and flicked her wrist. The blood was shaken off, and it stained the ground. Amelia stabbed again, and the weapon passed through the head of the commander. She said loudly, "Make sure you stab the injured in the head to destroy their demon soul. I do not want these scumbags to possess some spirit beast and lead them astray."
Her voice echoed through the battlefield, and then the war maidens replied, "Yes, Sect Mistress!!"
The voice was so loud that the hearts of the people shook. The war intent of the maidens was overwhelming. Many demonic cultivators had lost their resolve to continue by the shout alone.
Amelia wielded her blade, and her sisters followed. They were relentless. Whether it was the ground battle or the air support, they destroyed the demonic cultivator forces. The people gathered to watch the battle from the sidelines were astounded. They did not expect the War Maiden Sect to have a young Sect Mistress, and that lady had such skills and grasp over the sect.
The immortal plane was taken aback by the rise of Ferocious Maidens.
