After failing her tribulation, the Grand Elder of the Xuan Sect reincarnated as a little village girl in a remote area! Her father was dead, and her mother was remarrying!
Her stepfather was ...
“Red Scorpion Demon King, Centipede Demon King, you two are truly skilled. You managed to evade the detection of magical artifacts throughout the capital. In particular, I didn’t detect any demonic aura from the Eight Trigrams Formation hanging at the entrance of the courtyard. It seems that your Demon Emperor is indeed extraordinary. The talisman he casually crafted has such a good effect!” Ye Xianya said with a faint smile.
Upon seeing the two demons, Ye Xianya did some more calculations and finally realized that there was a powerful figure behind them and their true purpose for coming here.
She had previously divined that a demon king wanted to kill Qi Chengshuo, and that the Red Scorpion Demon King was one of them. It was the one who charged ahead and attacked Qi Chengshuo.
I never expected them to appear here.
It seems that the scenario I predicted is about to happen.
Fortunately, this is her princess residence, a mansion that Qi Jiu selected from the Imperial Household Department and gifted to her last year.
For more than three months, the people from the Imperial Household Department have been renovating the mansion according to Ye Xianya's requirements.
This mansion looked much like the mansions of other high-ranking officials and nobles, except that it was much larger.
In fact, Ye Xianya had already set up a special formation, with large formations nested within smaller formations, all interconnected. Once activated, even if it couldn't destroy these demon kings, it would definitely cripple them.
Not to mention, she also has the Grand Elder and the others on her side.
Although, in addition to the Red Scorpion Demon King and the Centipede Demon King, the other eight demon kings also came and were hiding in the alley outside the princess's mansion.
But Ye Xianya wasn't worried at all that they would lose to these demon kings.
Because... many demon kings probably wouldn't dare to make a move.
Although they were under the jurisdiction of the Demon Emperor, they were not of one mind.
"Since you know our identities, hand over that man named Qi Chengshuo. We want to take him away!" the Red Scorpion Demon King said arrogantly.
It didn't believe that Ye Xianya was really as powerful as the White Ape Demon King said.
Instead, it believed what the Demon Emperor said, thinking that Ye Xianya was nothing more than a pretty face with no substance.
The Red Scorpion Demon King was naturally not polite when speaking to someone whose strength was inferior to his own.
"Qi Chengshuo is not in my residence. Please make yourselves at home," Ye Xianya said while brewing tea.
“You’re lying. We’ve already found out that Qi Chengshuo moved into your princess’s residence more than ten days ago and hasn’t left at all. He doesn’t even care about the affairs of the government. There are also a lot of rumors outside… saying that you and he are having an affair and that you brought him to live in your residence before you were even married. I’m afraid there’s been a lot of gossip about this for a while now.”
Ye Xianya's hand paused slightly upon hearing this.
Is that what people outside are saying about her and Qi Chengshuo?
How boring!
She is a cultivator, so she wouldn't care what ordinary people say.
"Stop talking nonsense! The princess is not someone you can slander!" Shen Furong said angrily.
Women in the world value their reputation highly, and even if Ye Xianya was some kind of demon king, Shen Furong could not tolerate hearing this woman speak of her like that.
"You're courting death!" The Red Scorpion Demon King roared in fury, reaching out to unleash his demonic magic to kill Shen Furong.
Just as the invisible shockwave was about to hit Shen Furong, Ye Xianya erupted.
A powerful surge of soul energy swept out, not only neutralizing the Red Scorpion Demon King's attack but also forcing them to retreat several steps.
"You!" The Crimson Scorpion Demon King stared at Ye Xianya, his eyes filled with shock.
It had always thought Ye Xianya was just a pretty face, but it never expected her to be so capable.
Although it was only an attack of soul power, it still felt a little dizzy.
After recovering from her injuries and undergoing training, Ye Xianya's physical strength has undergone a qualitative leap compared to before, and her power has recovered considerably.
If he unleashes a powerful attack in the Demon Realm Mountains like last time, he won't need to recover for a month or two; he'll be back in two days at most.
"Elders, follow me to slay them!" After saying this, Ye Xianya immediately took action.
The moment the powerful soul force erupted, both the Red Scorpion Demon King and the Centipede Demon King were somewhat dizzy, as if they had been frozen in place. Although it was only for a moment, it wasn't the first time that Ren Zhaohui and the other elders had cooperated with Ye Xianya. As soon as she finished speaking, the five elders attacked together, and they all used their most powerful moves.
Furthermore, Ye Xianya activated the formation, amplifying their attacks.
As the heads of the two demon kings were severed, they quickly revealed their true forms, which frightened Shen Furong so much that she covered her mouth and kept backing away.
These demon kings are incredibly resilient, especially the Red Scorpion Demon King and the Centipede Demon King, who are notoriously difficult to kill; even if their heads are severed, they will not die.
However, Ye Xianya was prepared. After they were beheaded, she used mystical arts to immobilize their bodies and, together with several elders, cast a spell to forcibly pull out the demon cores from their bodies.
Having lost their demon cores, the two demon kings struggled for a moment before ceasing to move.
The Grand Elder immediately took out his storage bag and put the demon king's corpse inside.
Everything happened too fast. By the time the White Ape Demon King and the others guarding outside noticed the energy fluctuations, discussed the matter, and came in, it was already over.
"You...you killed the Red Scorpion Demon King and the Centipede Demon King!" The White Ape Demon King's face was full of shock.
Ye Xianya smiled upon hearing this but remained silent, while the elders standing behind her stood ready for battle.
After all, there are eight demon kings on the other side.
Even if the sect leader has recovered a lot of strength, they cannot let their guard down.
In fact, the reason why Ye Xianya and the others were able to kill the two demon kings so quickly was because the opponents underestimated them. She acted swiftly and ruthlessly, cooperated very well with the elders, and had the help of the formation, which is why they succeeded.
If the other party had been even slightly wary, he wouldn't have died.
"Did you crush the communication jade token?" Ye Xianya asked calmly. "I advise you to hurry up and call the Demon Emperor over."
Ye Xianya's expression turned cold as she said this: "Otherwise...none of you will leave this courtyard alive."
None of the demon kings dared to utter a sound upon hearing this.
The Red Scorpion Demon King and the Centipede Demon King died so quickly that they didn't even have time to react.
They were now caught in a dilemma, unable to advance or retreat, and were getting anxious.
The communication talisman must have been crushed; they were in danger and naturally needed to ask the Demon Emperor for help.
As long as the Demon Emperor arrives, these people are nothing to fear.
"How about we make a bet? I bet the Demon Emperor definitely won't come to save you. What about you Demon Kings?" Ye Xianya asked with a smile.
Seeing that their faces were somewhat pale, Ye Xianya's expression softened even more: "You don't need to panic so much. Even if you lose the bet, you won't have to pay any price."
The demon kings, of course, did not believe it, but they dared not say much in front of Ye Xianya. They all pretended to be stupid and waited for the demon king to come and support them.
Before the Demon King arrives, they must not act rashly, or they will surely lose their lives.
