Chapter 1096: Chapter 1096: No Rabbit, No Hawk
Picking a day is worse than bumping into one?
Yan Yi almost changed her mind and wanted to bring this shameless bastard to Destruction.
And Supreme Gu Fan at the side had already run out of patience.
"Damn it, you Tiger Demon, don’t push your luck!"
"The Princess let you in, you should be grateful to the point of tears, and you still dare have such improper thoughts, this is simply unforgivable!"
He looked even more furious than Yan Yi.
"If you dare offend the Princess again today, then it’s either you die or I do!"
The Tiger Demon opposite them was that former Three-Eyed Tiger.
Now he had also reached the Ultimate Realm.
He naturally had zero loyalty toward the Celestial Palace; becoming an Immortal Official was impossible for him.
But in the Land of Dao Extinction, he was actually living quite comfortably.
His cultivation was three days fishing, two days sunning the nets, but when it came to picking up Demon Race beauties, he was as proactive as you could possibly get.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
The lazy tiger swept his eyes over Supreme Gu Fan with a face full of "sympathy."
"How about we talk this over."
"What do you mean?"
The Three-Eyed Tiger shamelessly said, "Since you like gratitude and sacrifice so much, then stuff like that can be your job from now on."
"I don’t need to be grateful or make any sacrifices, I’ll just be responsible for enjoying her, the two of us have a clear division of labor..."
"Shut up!"
Before he even finished, Supreme Gu Fan exploded in rage.
This Tiger Demon had simply shattered the lower limits of his cognition.
"Stop!"
Yan Yi had no choice but to step in again and stop him in his fury.
Deep down, she also wanted nothing more than to tear the Three-Eyed Tiger apart.
Listen to what he just said—was that human speech?
This was trash, the scum of the Demon Race!
However, thinking about how they still needed to borrow this Tiger Demon’s strength to deal with that mysterious team, she had no choice but to keep up the hollow polite front.
"Here’s the thing, lately on the opposite side in the Yunzhao War Zone, there have been several strong teams repeatedly attacking us."
"I plan to annihilate them."
On hearing this, the Three-Eyed Tiger immediately expressed his full support.
"Once a beauty like you makes a move, the other side will definitely surrender at the first breeze!"
"You got this, I’m optimistic about you!"
His support was limited strictly to the spiritual level.
In terms of action, there was absolutely nothing.
Even that "you got this" phrase was something he had learned from Brother Cheng.
"Go, my dear, I’ll be waiting for your triumphant return, you don’t need to worry about me."
He was already waving her off in farewell.
What would I be worrying about you for?
Yan Yi and Gu Fan both felt they couldn’t keep up with his tempo anymore.
When a normal guy hears that a girl is going off to war, isn’t he supposed to thump his chest and volunteer to help?
Especially when you act all lovesick day in and day out.
And yet you’re not giving even the slightest sign?
Yan Yi’s level of contempt for him had already broken through the limits of the Plane.
She had no choice but to spell it out for him.
"But I don’t really have enough people..."
Before she finished, the Three-Eyed Tiger waved his hand as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"Then go find some, what a simple problem!"
Damn it, if I could find help, would I still be here yapping with you?
Yan Yi swallowed her anger and forced a smile. "I can’t find any. Those Supremes are all waiting to laugh at me, they can’t wait for me to fail."
"They won’t support me, much less help me."
"Ah, this?"
The Three-Eyed Tiger looked shocked. "They actually give you no face like that?"
"This is truly outrageous!"
He started cursing toward the outside.
"Are those bastards blind? How can they disappoint a beauty like you and even go against you?"
"They’re totally ruining the mood!"
"I despise them with every fiber of my being..."
Seeing him so righteously indignant, Yan Yi and Gu Fan both felt they were almost there.
He should know what he’s supposed to do now, right?
However, after listening to the Three-Eyed Tiger curse for a full ten minutes without repeating himself, they still didn’t hear a single word about him going.
Yan Yi had been completely defeated by him.
Even Gu Fan couldn’t stand this top-grade specimen anymore.
"What about you then? Are you not planning to help the Princess deal with the teams from the Celestial Palace side?"
He looked at him with disdain. "Your love for the Princess is just lip service with zero action?"
Yan Yi couldn’t help wanting to give him a thumbs up.
This was exactly what she wanted to say.
"Who says I won’t take action?"
The Three-Eyed Tiger puffed out his chest, full of heroic spirit.
"I can’t wait to go through Fire and Water for Princess Yan Yi this instant, but..."
"But what?" Yan Yi was honestly curious what excuse he could come up with now.
"But I have no justification..."
The Three-Eyed Tiger spread his hands with a look that was both affectionate and regretful.
"I’m not an Evil Immortal, I belong to the Land of Dao Extinction. If I help you, I’ll have no legitimate reason."
"And we’re not relatives or anything, I..."
He blinked those peach blossom eyes. "You know what I mean."
Yan Yi really did understand.
This Tiger Demon was sitting on the ground raising his price; he actually wanted her to agree to marry him before he would help.
She already hated the Three-Eyed Tiger too much as it was; how could she possibly agree to something like that?
Especially with the loyal dog Supreme Gu Fan standing right there.
"Princess, you must not agree to him!"
Yan Yi’s expression shifted, then she waved at the Three-Eyed Tiger.
"I have some things to discuss with Supreme Gu Fan."
The Three-Eyed Tiger shrugged.
In any case, he wasn’t going to draw the bow without seeing the rabbit; he absolutely refused to take a loss.
Three minutes later, Yan Yi and Supreme Gu Fan came out of the great hall together.
The latter’s expression had already calmed down.
"I can agree to you, but only after this battle ends in a complete victory."
Yan Yi stared coldly into the Three-Eyed Tiger’s eyes, putting on the look of a chaste woman forced into a corner.
...
On the other side, Sect Leader Jiang’s team had run into the Emperor Yuan Team.
The instant the two teams encountered each other, everyone in the Emperor Yuan Team was collectively dumbfounded.
"What’s going on?"
"Emperor Realm Eighth Layer, Fourth Layer, Third Layer, First Layer?"
"And an Evil Immortal!"
Clang!
Upon seeing Venerable Lin Ye, Celestial Venerable Juangling and Celestial Venerable Huo Wen hurriedly drew their Weapons, faces full of vigilance.
These past days they’d been chased over and over, to the point they were jumpy and on edge at every little noise.
Sect Leader Jiang, on the other hand, had actually been a bit happy at first when he saw there were Celestial Venerables on the other side.
So many fat sheep.
But then, after sensing the markers of the other team, his disappointment was written all over his face.
According to the rules of the Celestial Palace, they couldn’t kill "their own faction."
Otherwise, not only would their Celestial Dao Points be completely wiped, they would also be deemed rebels by the Celestial Palace.
He didn’t care about the latter, but if all his Celestial Dao Points were deducted, he’d lose his rewards.
"Ahem!"
Captain Celestial Venerable Wu Jin was also caught off guard when he saw this bizarre team.
Leaving aside that Evil Immortal, how had the other five people, with such low Realms, even managed to make it here alive?
He raised his right hand to stop Celestial Venerable Juangling, who was about to act.
"We’re the Emperor Yuan Team. You’re from the Yunzhao War Zone as well?"
"How did you end up here?"
If not for his curiosity, he really wouldn’t have taken the initiative to talk to a bunch of Low-Tier Immortals like this.
Back in the rear lines, even strong teams like Ba Yun’s weren’t qualified to get close to them.
