Chapter 497: Adversarial Girl!
“Be cautious.”
The benefits the leader of the Wolf-headed Demon Bats received by stepping into the sixth level of the Yuan Spirit Realm led Su Yi to believe that the Wolf-headed Demon Bat might be close to reaching the seventh level of the Demonic Spirit Realm.
Given the flight speed of the leader of the Wolf-headed Demon Bats, it’s definitely a significant advantage, but caution is still necessary.
Su Yi estimated that among the direct disciples, those ranked at the top were likely to be quite formidable, each having their own unique methods. One should not underestimate them.
“From now on, I’ll call you Wolfbat,” Su Yi said to the leader of the Wolf-headed Demon Bats.
“Roar.”
The Wolfbat answered with a powerful roar, spreading its wings and emitting a crimson glow. The air filled with a bloodthirsty aura as it moved with remarkable speed.
Considering the speed of the Wolfbat, waiting until tomorrow was unnecessary; it would not take long to reach the exit.
Su Yi began to think about the situation. Once they reach the exit, their troubles will truly begin. Both the Dark Golden Demon Falcon and the Wolfbat have gained benefits within the mysterious space, with vast potential ahead. However, it remains unclear if they can be brought out.
“When the exit opens, if we force a breakthrough, is there a chance?” Situ Muyang asked Su Yi.
“Someone is coming…”
As soon as Situ Muyang finished speaking, Su Yi’s gaze snapped toward the rear.
“Roar!”
A thunderous roar filled the air, accompanied by dark radiance surging from behind, drawing closer.
Upon closer inspection, a bizarre and massive exotic beast appeared. It resembled a dragon-like creature, adorned with eight wings on its back. Despite lacking claws, it was cloaked in darkness. Its fierce eyes glowed with a chilling light, and its menacing aura struck fear. Its large, blood-filled mouth exhaled a sinister energy.
“It’s the Eight-winged Demon Python, and someone’s riding it.”
Situ Muyang’s gaze also turned toward the rear, where the fierce creature was none other than the Eight-winged Demon Python, the same beast that had recently fought the Wolfbat.
Su Yi’s gaze flicked over the Eight-winged Demon Python before his pupils contracted slightly as his eyes locked onto a figure on the back of the creature.
The figure was graceful, dressed in elegant orange attire, young, with delicate rosy lips and clear bright eyes. Underneath the orange garment, her slender physique exuded an enchanting allure.
“It’s her…”
Su Yi’s expression shifted as he recalled this girl. When he was about to leave the Divine Sword School, he had crossed paths with her due to the young Ninth Nether Demon Sneak. She had impressive cultivation, and they even fought each other.
“Looks like a woman. Do you know her?” Situ Muyang asked, noticing Su Yi’s change in expression.
“Not really, but our paths crossed under unfortunate circumstances!”
With a helpless smile, Su Yi recalled that the girl had introduced herself as Mu Yao. However, their previous meeting had been under unfortunate circumstances. It was puzzling how she managed to tame the Eight-winged Demon Python. Now that she was catching up, it likely wouldn’t end well.
Their previous encounter had no clear winner.
Su Yi was well aware of her strength. Even though he hadn’t gone all out during their last encounter, he had made multiple breakthroughs since then.
But Su Yi also knew that, like last time, the girl had not fully unleashed her power. Additionally, from the current situation, the fact that Mu Yao had tamed the Eight-winged Demon Python, which was at the peak of the Fifth Grade of the Demonic Spirit Realm, showed her strength.
“Su Yi, our previous battle is unfinished. How about another round?”
On the back of the Eight-winged Demon Python, Mu Yao spoke, “After searching so long, I’ve finally found this fellow.”
“Should we deal with the little girl first? She probably has Sword-patterned Stones.”
Situ Muyang was eager to act. It seemed like an opportunity, and the girl was quite impressive. She likely had Sword-patterned Stones.
Su Yi gave Situ Muyang a dismissive glance. The small inner demon within him had fully awakened. Even though she was just a little girl, Mu Yao seemed more mature than this fellow.
“This woman is tough. It’s better to avoid her.”
Su Yi shook his head and said to Situ Muyang, “If this guy knew Mu Yao’s true strength, he wouldn’t be speaking like that.”
He immediately ordered the Wolfbat to fly at full speed. Now wasn’t the time to engage with her; any conflict could attract the attention of nearby disciples.
“Roar…”
The Wolf-headed Demon Bat responded, flapping its wings and emitting a glowing crimson light as its speed surged.
“You think you can escape? Chase them!”
On the back of the Eight-winged Demon Python, Mu Yao’s expression changed. Her black hair swayed with the wind as she urged the Eight-winged Demon Python to chase at full speed.
The Eight-winged Demon Python recognized Su Yi on the back of the Wolf-headed Demon Bat. It remembered the fear it had felt, but now it had no choice but to give chase.
“Su Yi, you can’t escape!”
Mu Yao’s voice resonated with vital energy, filling the air. Her master had believed this young man was extraordinary. She had mentioned that there was always someone better, but could it really be this young man? If it weren’t for her master’s orders, she wouldn’t have left.
Upon reaching the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords, Mu Yao had been searching for him. It was rumored that Su Yi had a considerable number of Sword-patterned Stones, and more importantly, the Dark Spirit Fruits she sought. This made it all the more crucial to catch him.
However, despite the Eight-winged Demon Python’s speed, it couldn’t catch up to the Wolfbat.
At their current levels, the Eight-winged Demon Python and the Wolf-headed Demon Bat had similar speed.
But the Eight-winged Demon Python had been severely injured by Su Yi and still carried its wounds.
The Wolf Bat, however, had fully recovered from its injuries and gained tremendous benefits. It had undergone the Refining of Bone and Marrow, advanced to the sixth level of the Demonic Spirit Realm, and even reached the seventh level.
Because of this, the Eight-winged Demon Python simply couldn’t catch up with the Wolfbat.
In no time, with the Wolfbat’s full acceleration, the Eight-winged Demon Python had been left far behind.
“Su Yi, if you have the courage, don’t run away. Wicked beast, face your retribution!”
Mu Yao’s rosy lips pouted angrily as she stomped her foot on the Eight-winged Demon Python.
“Roar!”
The Eight-winged Demon Python felt helpless and distressed. It was also surprised by the Wolf-headed Demon Bat’s speed. Despite giving its all, it couldn’t catch up.
“Su Yi, where are you running? You can’t escape!”
Watching the Wolf-headed Demon Bat’s retreating form, Mu Yao’s eyes flickered, and a smile tugged at her lips. With a voice full of vitality, she called out loudly.
“Su Yi, you can’t escape!”
“Hand over the Dark Spirit Fruits and Sword-patterned Stones.”
“…”
Her voice, filled with vitality, echoed like thunder through the void, reverberating in the dense mountain forest.
“Haha, that little girl must be furious, but she can’t catch up to us.”
Situ Muyang laughed, knowing that with the bat’s current speed, the Eight-winged Demon Python stood no chance.
“She’s not furious; she’s doing it on purpose.”
Su Yi gave a bitter smile, his expression darkening. That woman was far too crafty.
“Roar!”
“Woo!”
“…”
Suddenly, as Su Yi spoke, a mighty roar from a beast echoed from the dense forest below, accompanied by a surge of rapidly ascending energy.
