Chapter 562: The Concubine Forced to Become a Resentful Woman
Bang bang bang——
The earth suddenly shattered.
More than a dozen tree roots as thick as a person's arm pierced through the ice layer and smashed towards them.
Jiang Fan's pupils shrank violently.
This was an attack from the Ninth Layer of Core Formation Perfection, a power comparable to that of Fang Taiji.
It wasn't something they could withstand.
"Would she really dare to kill you, an Imperial Concubine?" Jiang Fan tightly gripped Concubine Yunxia's neck.
He found it hard to believe.
Concubine Yunxia was the most favored and trusted among the Demon Emperor's thirty-six concubines.
Would Chun Ni, a subordinate Demon King, dare to kill a concubine?
Wasn't she afraid of the Demon Emperor's punishment?
Concubine Yunxia merely stared deeply at Jiang Fan, a calm look of awaiting death on her face.
She didn't explain much.
The Golden Claw Iron Wolf, however, immediately fled, screaming continuously:
"Oh my god! Who let this lunatic out!"
"Once she receives a battle order, she'll enter a mad killing state."
"Not to mention an Imperial Concubine, even the Demon Emperor himself, she would kill without hesitation!"
The Golden Claw Iron Wolf ran frantically, its scalp tingling.
The Four Great Demon Kings certainly commanded respect.
But the other three Demon Kings were still somewhat reasonable, one could coexist peacefully as long as they weren't offended.
Only Demon King Chun Ni, who was confined within the Demon Race territory and not allowed to go out, was an exception.
She was a lunatic.
A lunatic with a dual personality.
In her normal state, she was a pitiful punching bag, the kind that even passing dogs wanted to bully.
But.
Once she felt threatened or received a command to kill.
Her killing personality would be triggered.
The Demon Race wouldn't send her out unless it was absolutely necessary.
They feared she would cause trouble without restraint.
Upon hearing this,
the expressions of the people on the back of the Demon Wolf changed.
Zhao Wuji decisively ordered, "Everyone, scatter!"
"Escape!"
Staying on the back of the Demon Wolf, they might all be wiped out.
But if so many people scattered and ran, even if Demon King Chun Ni had three heads and six arms, she couldn't catch and kill them all.
Some would definitely survive.
Whoosh—
Everyone turned into shadows, shooting in all directions.
Jiang Fan also clenched his teeth, still tightly gripping Concubine Yunxia.
Seeing the terrifying roots whipping down, showing no sign of slowing because of Concubine Yunxia,
he finally believed the Golden Claw Iron Wolf's words.
He decisively activated Cloud Shadow, instantaneously moving a hundred feet away.
Bang—
The roots slammed into the ground, smashing the ice layer and creating a dozen-feet-deep gorge!
The rising steam made the slowly approaching Demon King Chun Ni appear distorted and wavering.
Jiang Fan took a deep breath.
If that blow had landed squarely.
Concubine Yunxia's body would have been turned into a meat patty, right?
This lunatic, she really didn't care about Concubine Yunxia's life!
Bang bang bang—
More roots rolled rapidly underground like ferocious dragons.
Blasting the ice layer along the way dozens of feet high.
He had to escape quickly.
Concubine Yunxia wasn't just unable to save her life, but was also a burden.
With this in mind, Thunder Light sparkled in his palm.
He raised his palm and slapped it hard towards her forehead.
Concubine Yunxia let out a small sigh and, having mentally prepared herself, closed her beautiful eyes.
She was an Imperial Concubine.
Now that she had no use, the Human Clan would definitely never let her live.
Killing her was completely within reason.
However.
The pain she expected never came.
Instead, Jiang Fan threw her onto the snowy ground.
Hmm?
Concubine Yunxia opened her eyes, showing a look of surprise: "You're not going to kill me?"
Jiang Fan coldly glanced at her.
He turned around and used his movement technique, fleeing into the distance without looking back, saying:
"This repays my Uncle-Master's life-saving grace!"
"If you fall into my hands again, I'll surely take your life!"
The mission this time was to destroy the Demon Emperor's essence blood.
Capturing Concubine Yunxia was an unexpected gain.
Letting her go didn't violate the mission.
Whoosh.
Jiang Fan sped off, stepping through the white snow.
Concubine Yunxia sat up, watching Jiang Fan's disappearing figure, showing a hint of surprise.
Given Jiang Fan's determination and ruthlessness shown along the way,
by all rights, he should have killed her to eliminate future troubles.
But he let her go.
Hearing a loud rumbling behind her, the approaching force was not weakening but growing stronger, the massive noise seemingly bent on killing her,
she didn't turn her head and said, "Stop!"
Demon King Chun Ni, with her contorted face, suddenly shuddered and trembled.
Her face quickly returned to normal.
Seeing Concubine Yunxia sitting in the snow, she gasped and rushed over, helping Concubine Yunxia up.
Seeing Concubine Yunxia covered in chains, especially the rough chain around her neck that had left wounds on her pale skin,
her eyes filled with tears of pity: "Concubine Yunxia, you are hurt."
She stood on tiptoe and blew a breath on Concubine Yunxia's neck.
A strong life force was exhaled and fell on the wound, and miraculously, it healed without leaving a trace.
Concubine Yunxia patted Demon King Chun Ni's head: "Thank you."
The Golden Claw Iron Wolf beside them was dumbfounded, its eyes as wide as saucers.
"Concubine Yunxia, you...you can control Demon King Chun Ni's personality?"
Once Demon King Chun Ni's killing personality was triggered, not even the Demon Emperor could wake her.
Only after Demon King Chun Ni got her fill of killing and fell asleep could she revert to her quiet personality.
The Demon Emperor had tried many ways to solve this.
Even using some ancient Demon Race techniques, but nothing was effective.
It was shocking that.
Concubine Yunxia could awaken her quiet personality with just one command!
"Does the Demon Emperor know about this?"
The Golden Claw Iron Wolf instinctively asked.
Concubine Yunxia responded with a cold glare.
This made the Golden Claw Iron Wolf realize it had asked a very foolish question.
The Demon Emperor definitely didn't know.
Concubine Yunxia had kept this secret from the Demon Emperor!
This was tantamount to being disloyal to the Demon Emperor!
And it had just discovered the secret.
Gulp—
The Golden Claw Iron Wolf swallowed nervously, cautiously stepping back, stammering:
"Concubine Yunxia, I will keep your secret."
"I swear to the heavens, I will keep my mouth shut."
Concubine Yunxia's eyes flickered.
Ultimately, she sighed softly: "That bastard was right."
"The selection criteria for the Royal Guard Corps need an additional intelligence test."
But, because the Iron Claw Demon Wolf was a bit stupid.
Concubine Yunxia decided to spare its life.
If it was too smart, it would be able to threaten her.
It would already be dead.
"Concubine Yunxia, who hurt you like this? I'll avenge you."
Demon King Chun Ni grabbed the chains with both hands, trying to break them.
But she found that despite her Demon King strength, the chains didn't budge.
Concubine Yunxia looked in Jiang Fan's direction, biting her silver teeth, letting out a long, cold laugh:
"Hehe~ Hehehe~"
"Jiang Fan! You better run fast, you'd better not be caught by me!"
Demon King Chun Ni looked stunned.
She looked at Concubine Yunxia, unfamiliar, as if she didn't recognize her.
Was this still the gentle, quiet, and kind Concubine Yunxia she remembered?
What had she become?
"Chase, but don't chase too hard, give him some hope, then crush his hope."
Concubine Yunxia coldly laughed.
"I want to play with him slowly!"
The Golden Claw Iron Wolf was dumbfounded.
What did Jiang Fan do to torment Concubine Yunxia this much?
A previously gentle and beautiful concubine.
Had been turned into a vengeful spirit.
