Demon King's Repayment - chapter 181

On the field, Shi Fu jumped high at the demon again. His spells did not have an advantage over the demons of the fire element, and the wounds on his body would not allow him to fight for a long time, so he decided to take a risk.

The moment he landed, he lowered his center of gravity and slid on the spot, sliding toward the belly of the demon. He had already seen in the short battle that the soft abdomen was the most vulnerable part of that fully armored demon.

The ground was raging with fire, and the sensitive demon lowered his head and aimed the sharp horn on his head at the enemy that was facing him.

Shi Fu knew that he might be picked up in the air by the gleaming thorn and tragically die on the spot. Even so, he had the only chance left.

His vines burst out with the greatest strength and burst out of the flames, entangling the head of the demon, binding the sharp horns on the forehead, preventing him from moving.

Very good, as long as he could hold on for a moment, he could slide under the belly of the demon, cut open his chest, and take his life.

Aware of the danger, the demon also erupted with the most enormous power.

He broke the vines!

The demon raised his head in the flames like Shura’s hell, and his blood-red eyes stared at the little human who was rushing toward him through the firelight. Shi Fu even saw a bit of cold light from the sharp horns that had rushed out of the vines.

He stretched out his palm in front of him. Even if he lost one hand, it would save his life and win the battle.

But in that short moment, the demon’s raising movement suddenly froze, as if it was bound, restricted, and rigid by some invisible force, making it impossible to make an effective attack.

Of course, that process was only a brief moment. But that moment was the thin line between life and death.

Countless pairs of eyes in the audience looked at the colosseum, but only Shi Gu, who was sliding against the ground, saw the light of the magic circle flashing across the dusty land.

Someone helped him, who?

He didn’t have time to think about it, so he leaned against the icy sharp horns and drilled down from the demon beast’s body to under his belly.

A huge howl resounded throughout the audience. When the smoke and dust in the sky disappeared for a while, the mountain-like demon rumbled down in the dust.

The blood-soaked warrior crawled out from under the demon, holding a bloody heart in his hand.

He stood up, his own blood mixed with the blood of the demon dyed his head and face red. He looked like a Shura who had returned from hell, and swept his eyes from the stand, which was full of ugly and distorted scenes. They shouted and clamored indiscriminately, filling their own emptiness and boredom with the pain and blood of others.

Shi Fu’s gaze stayed on Yuan Xiang’s position for a moment.

It was her.

He turned around, no longer paying attention to the shouting that sounded all over the field, dragged his scarred body, and left the blood-drenched colosseum in silence.

“Oh, I can’t believe it. You have a good vision. Many people lost, but you were still right. It’s amazing,” Lu Junshou was surprised.

Yuan Xiang quietly retracted the palm behind her, and gently rubbed the fingers that made a gesture for the spell.

Beyond the remote wilderness, after searching every corner within a few miles, Nan He, Dushuo and the others couldn’t find any trace of Yuan Xiang. At that moment, everyone’s heart was heavy and anxious.

Wu Yuan was already in turmoil. He dug the soil on the ground with his small claws desperately. Holding back tears, he said, “Why did she disappear? Ah Xiang, come out, come out quickly! Wooo, why does when I call her with the contract, she doesn’t give me any response at all?” 

There was nothing in the pit, only the backpack that Yuan Xiang had been carrying was placed on the edge of the pit alone.

“If it wasn’t for me, she wouldn’t have come to such a dangerous place. I actually couldn’t take good care of her,” Dushuo stood beside the huge dirt pit dug by Nan He and Wu Yuan. His long black hair was hanging down. Most of his body was covered with black-gray feathers, and the form was the one that only appeared when the demon was extremely indignant.

Hu Qing reached out and grabbed his wings with a worried look on her face. She was equally flustered.

“I remember something. Ah Xiang seemed to have mentioned that she saw me in her dream,” Nan He said suddenly.

“You said Ah Xiang dreamed of you? But, is there anything wrong with that?” Dushuo turned his head and asked him.

“That’s not the case. Ah Xiang told me unintentionally. She said that she has dreamed of me several times recently… I seduced her,” Nan He quickly spoke out even though it was hard to say.

He clearly remembered that she was there the previous night, and he was very sad because of Yuan Xiang’s deliberate avoidance for the past few days.

At that moment, Ah Xiang leaned over to him, combed his hair for him, whispered to him with the contract, and accidentally passed on a thought in her heart.

At that time, when he heard her words, his heart was sweet and happy, and he didn’t even think about what was wrong with it.

Thinking about it now, from Ah Xiang’s deliberate avoiding him, to the words she accidentally revealed, all of them were strange.

“She seemed to be disturbed by some kind of magic, but I didn’t notice it at that time,” Nan He came to a conclusion after calm thinking.

Hu Qing looked at Nan He in astonishment. At that moment, Nan He was standing on the edge of the giant pit in the shape of a human, with a straight body, neat clothes, and flying silver hair.

After walking with him for so long, she thought she had some understanding of Nan He’s character. Compared with the demon’s age, Nan He was still very young. Young and proud, simple and powerful, he had deep feelings for Ah Xiang and had a strong sense of dependence. Hu Qing originally thought that when Yuan Xiang was gone, Nan He would definitely be the first to go crazy.

But she didn’t expect that at a moment when everyone was panicking, Nan He was able to restrain his anxiety and calmly guide everyone to start thinking carefully.

“Yes, I also remember a thing. When she passed the plane tree, Ah Xiang said that she was influenced by the tree spirit and was pulled into the spirit world of the tree spirit.” Hu Qing remembered something and hurriedly said, “Ah Xiang is different from us. She is a human being, and the human spirit is relatively fragile and easily captured by the tree spirit spells. Do you think we have offended a powerful tree spirit along the way?”

At that moment, there came a soft sound from Yuan Xiang’s backpack on the ground.
