Yu Xianxian admitted that when she saw Ling Yao, she regretted hiding the truth from her. If she had known that the two would eventually clash, she would have preferred to tell Ling Yao from the beginning.

What? You're asking why I didn't secretly tell Ling Yao at the beginning, and then secretly teach that sixth brother Luo Jia a lesson?

That's because Yu Xianxian forgot at first, and by the time she remembered, Luo Jia had already set his sights on her.

This can only be described as Yu Xianxian being too hasty when dealing with Wumian, which allowed Luo Laoliu to see through her, and later he even tricked her into revealing more information, completely exposing her true nature.

The naive Yu Xianxian admitted that she was far too inexperienced to outsmart an old demon who had lived for an unknown amount of time.

Fortunately, Ling Yao was also a very beautiful woman who had lived for a long time, so even though Luo Jia's demonic energy was well hidden and he had even set up a barrier, she was still attracted by the commotion here.

However, to his surprise, the man who had been bowing deeply to him not long ago was now exuding demonic energy.

"Zhou Yun?"

Ling Yao held the arrow stuck in Yu Xianxian's arm. The black flames instantly turned the arrow into water vapor. While helping Yu Xianxian up to check her injury, she frowned and looked at the man over there.

"Peak Master, that person is Luo Jia."

The sharp pain in her arm reminded her of the danger of what had just happened. If Ling Yao had arrived even a little later, she might really be on her way to meet the King of Hell.

At this moment, Ling Yao was feeding Yu Xianxian a pill, but did not respond.

In just a short while, Yu Xianxian felt her hand getting hot. When she looked down, she found that the wound that had pierced through her arm was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Wow! Yu Xianxian, who has never seen anything like this before, exclaimed, "How amazing! I love it!"

"Your arm will heal quickly with the Regenerating Pill. Go and rest for a while."

While Yu Xianxian went to the side to relax—or rather, to recover from her injuries—Ling Yao took a few steps toward Luo Jia.

"Loga? No wonder there's such a strong demonic aura. It smells awful."

"Heh, after all these years, Peak Master Ling's mouth is still as sharp as ever."

Luo Jia still wore the smile of a refined gentleman on his face. If it weren't for the gloom in his eyes, Yu Xianxian might have continued to regard him as a pedantic young master.

Yu Xianxian remembered that in the book's setting, Luo Jia, as one of the four protectors, should have the same strength as the peak master. However, he was severely injured back then. If his injuries hadn't healed, then Ling Yao should have been able to crush him.

But then I remembered the line in the script, "Once the truth is revealed, the feast can begin..."

Yu Xianxian shook her head. Why keep believing in that dog script? At this time, we should trust our beautiful Ling. Well, at worst, we can bring that dog script to the underworld for a feast.

A dog's script: ...6

Of course, the best-case scenario is that Luo Jia goes to report to the King of Hell, and they happily watch world peace unfold.

Just as Yu Xianxian was meticulously (in her own opinion) analyzing the battle situation, the two on the other side did not start fighting as she expected, but instead began chatting like old friends.

"Tsk tsk tsk, back when the Immortal Sect and the Demon Realm were at war, you were the one who severely injured me. I never thought that you would ruin my plans again. I never imagined that the seemingly weak girl from back then could grow up to be this strong..."

As Luo Jia spoke, his eyes sharpened, and countless water droplets in the lake floated into the air before shooting towards Ling Yao like cannonballs.

"If I had known, I should have killed you too."

Ling Yao waved her hand gently, and the Nine Netherworld Fire drew a beautiful arc in the air, acting as a shield to block all the attacks.

"Give up, Loga. I know your injuries haven't healed yet, and you're no match for me right now."

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Luo Jia on the other side burst into laughter, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Do you know, Peak Master Ling, Wu Chan said the same thing to you before he died."

As he spoke, Loga snapped his fingers.

The once quiet city instantly erupted into chaos.

The roars of countless ferocious beasts mingled together, creating a headache-inducing sound.

The next second, dark figures appeared in the sky, on the rooftops, and around them.

Under the moonlight, Yu Xianxian and her companions saw countless strange creatures.

They come in all shapes and sizes, but the only thing they have in common is that half of their bodies are human and the other half are beasts.

Their numbers were so great that they completely surrounded them.

"So many fused creatures!"

Looking at these creatures that were neither human nor beast, and then at the immortal and the demon over there, Yu Xianxian felt that it was really inappropriate for an ordinary human like herself to be here.

So, gentlemen, please be merciful and let her go?

"Fusion creatures? That sounds awful. I'd much rather call them orcs."

Clearly, these creatures were created by Loga, the sixth brother, which is why he can stand calmly in the encirclement at this moment.

Luo Jia looked at Ling Yao with a provocative smile.

"Do you really think I'm just here to be a pampered young master, doing nothing all day? Every human here has been transformed into an adorable half-orc by me. Peak Master Ling, can you handle that?"

"Cute," Yu Xianxian thought, her lips twitching as she looked at the cobbled-together things outside. "This guy is either blind or has a problem with his aesthetic sense."

"Ha, so what if there are many of them? They're just a bunch of little monsters at most. Do you really think I can't handle them?"

"As expected of Peak Master Ling, he is truly confident."

Upon hearing this, Luo Jia not only didn't get angry but clapped his hands, though the smile on his face grew increasingly amused.

"However, I believe Peak Master Ling should know that these are not demons, but genuine humans. Does Peak Master Ling really have the heart to kill them all?"

Ling Yao looked around at the orcs. When she saw a few small orcs, a cold glint flashed in her eyes. This bastard, he didn't even spare the children.

Luo Jia naturally didn't miss the angry look in Ling Yao's eyes, and smiled slightly, "Tsk tsk, why is Peak Master Ling so angry? These mortals are too weak. I just gave them powerful bodies. Look how happy they are!"

As Loka spoke, the orcs around him began to roar, as if agreeing with him.

"Peak Master Ling, you seem to really dislike seeing them doing well."

Luo Jia shook his head and sighed, as if he were the great philanthropist, pointing fingers from his moral high ground.

Then, his demeanor shifted, and a malicious smile appeared on his face.

"Since that's the case, then I'll have no choice but to get rid of you."

At his command, all the orcs charged toward the two of them.

Oh, no, to be precise, they rushed towards Ling Yao alone. As for Yu Xianxian, well, she's been forgotten and left to gather dust in a corner.
