The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1136 - 437: Little GuaGua is Struck_3

As the firelight and poison fog both dissipated, a large and a smaller monster no longer appeared as vague silhouettes in a fog but became real and distinguishable reflections.

One had the head of a ram and the hooves of a wolf, clad in colorful armor, standing as tall as the heavens, with a strange blend of murderous aura and auspiciousness, mysterious in every aspect.

The other, seemingly a mantis in appearance, yet it did not have scythe-like arms but held two poisoned daggers.

Its chilly gaze alone made it easy to guess that it was undoubtedly a master of assassination, daring to show its back to it meant facing the horrific risk of being struck dead with one blow.

"Qilin War Armor Demon, Mantis Dagger Demon..."

Ye Hanjun used Talent Identification to confirm that these two were indeed the important targets the Pig Dragon Demon King had mentioned on the way here.

And their master, who they were following, was currently sitting on a floating orchid mat, expression cold, body bare, devoid of the emotional fluctuations similar to humans.

"Queen Fula, this is Mogo."

Acting as previously instructed, the Pig Dragon Demon King deliberately ignored Ye Hanjun, focusing entirely on GuaGua.

It stopped in its tracks, no longer roaring, assuming a somewhat humble stance that made both the Qilin War Armor Demon and the Mantis Dagger Demon frown.

"Stupid pig head, was it you screaming in the city center?"

"Who is she? Aegifura, I’ve never heard this name!"

The Mantis Dagger Demon, holding its daggers, emanated a killing intent, ready to strike at any moment.

The Qilin War Armor Demon, more composed, surveyed all living beings within sight and suddenly asked:

"Is Queen Rose really dead? She took all her confidants and directly air-dropped into the Demon Queen’s tower!"

"Hehe," the Pig Dragon Demon King chuckled naively, "Queen Rose said that it was the Divination Holy Mirror that captured the changes in order, allowing her to gain foresight."

"How come when we return to the Royal City, you all seem so unclear and ambiguous? If we keep communicating like this, isn’t all my talking in vain?"

"..."

The Qilin War Armor Demon remained silent, but the Mantis Dagger Demon’s face turned ugly:

"The Divination Saint Mirror only issued this directional prediction, and its body unexpectedly shattered, plunging into a dying crisis..."

"Stupid pig head, have you thought it through? Do you really want to follow this unknown person, holding her will supreme?!"

"Humph?"

The Pig Dragon Demon King blinked its plump eyes, expressing slight astonishment:

"The Divination Saint Mirror nearly perished? It’s a Beast Soldier with Supreme Sacred Great Achievement, and could step into Supreme Holy Completion at any moment!"

"Just for foretelling one piece of news, it’s now nearly finished. Even if it survives, how much of its original capabilities will remain?"

"Good you know!"

The Mantis Dagger Demon said through gritted teeth:

"The Divination Saint Mirror is the pillar of the Land of Lust! An irreplaceable mainstay!"

"It presides over the path of destiny, and it’s precisely because we have it that our nation could grow so arduously under the oppression of the other six nations!"

"Your appearance equates to erasing its past contributions, turning its lifelong effort to ash!"

"I, the Mantis Dagger Demon, absolutely cannot recognize this outsider as a lord!"

"Today, either you step over my corpse, or... get out of here!"

The Mantis Dagger Demon was keenly aware of the current situation.

To be able to bury all of Aegi Rosie’s forces, these people must have hidden their strength.

This would be a battle likely fraught with danger; from their daring entrance into the city to their direct infiltration of the palace, clues could already be seen.

"Aegi Mogo, don’t you recognize me anymore?"

GuaGua jumped down from the back of the Pig Dragon Demon King, looking steadily at the Naked Enchantress Demon on the orchid mat:

"What foreigner? You and I are from the same root, descendants of the Ancient Taimo that hatched us."

"Now that I’ve grown into the Holy Saint Embryo and become the inheritor, the first in the sequence, it should suffice to prove that the me that you once looked down upon has value and is irreplaceable too."

"Is it so..."

Ever since she appeared, Aegi Mogo’s pair of Purple Jade demon eyes had never left GuaGua’s face.

Now, she exhaled a breath with the scent of deep orchids, and with a lowered gaze, she spoke faintly:

"What did you do to Aegifura?"

"?"

GuaGua was startled, swallowing the words that had almost escaped its lips.

After a four-day journey, GuaGua had prepared for so long, its brain nearly smoking, thinking it was foolproof.

What was this situation? How did this ice-cold madam manage to almost see through its guise with just one look? How infuriating!

GuaGua refused to back down, feigning a frosty expression on its delicate face, and narrowing its eyes in a steadfast glare.

"You’re not Aegifura, shed your shell and revert to your true form."

Aegi Mogo waved her hand, disinterested in conversing, blandly saying:

"You’re impressive, able even to mimic divinity."

"But you probably don’t know, the Primordial Enchanting Demon Clan can seduce tens of thousands of creatures, standing at the peak of bodily desires."

"Naturally, with just one glance, we can ascertain whether the blood of our kindred is from the same source as our own."

"You have only the appearance, not the substance; even if you step into the tower of the Demon Queen Raffles, her will could never recognize an imitation like you."

"I’m an imitation... I’m an imitation?!"

GuaGua’s carefully sculpted nails snapped loudly, immediately breaking off.

Its face, laden with frost, suddenly showed a tinge of annoyed red, and its long white hair draped behind also began madly floating up.

But... no matter how GuaGua mimicked Aegifura’s anger.

Aegi Mogo coldly refused to even give it a glance.

"Damn it! Just when I had finally set out, I’ve been smacked back to square one!"

"Little Meili! Did you deliberately want to see me embarrass myself? The books say that the prettier the demon, the more deceitful, and it’s actually true!!"

Little GuaGua poofed back into its original form, its cheeks puffing up with annoyance, wanting to bite the demon.
