Xia Xiang is the most special child in the Xia Lan Xing De family. Because she is a rare light-type elemental warrior, she could not stay in the Xia household to grow up. Since birth, she has grown...

Chapter 20 The Exam on Demon Island, Part 3 (Encountering the Demon Envoy)

"Who knows about those demon-slaying warriors with serious illnesses? Anyway, you and I are demon envoys, so it's not our turn to clean up."

The man in black didn't care at all. "It's just that this group of underlings is too incompetent. Their flattery sounds unnatural. Wouldn't it be better to replace them with a different batch?"

"I don't know when they'll leave. It's keeping me from eating or sleeping properly," the white-haired demon messenger said, looking pale and sickly.

"They'll leave once they've accumulated enough energy by killing wandering spirits or monsters, so don't worry," the black-clad demon envoy reassured them.

"However, if they kill fewer higher-level enemies, they should be able to leave faster. Otherwise, you could send your three mage warriors over there so they can leave sooner."

"..." The white-haired demon envoy shook his head in refusal, "I get along quite well with them, there's no need to switch."

"That's right, they're just lazy," the black-clad demon envoy sneered, disregarding the lives of the others. "Otherwise, you wouldn't have held your position as demon envoy for so long, hahaha."

The white-haired demon envoy: "I'm still here, so behave yourself..."

"Hmm?" The black-clad demon envoy narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"I'm sorry, I'll restrain myself," the white-haired demon envoy practically bowed and scraped.

Judging from what they said, these two demons should be of the same level, and that white-haired demon envoy was excessively humble.

Xia Xiang observed quietly from the side, a thought suddenly forming in her mind, preparing to confront him head-on.

The Demon-Slaying Slash emitted a pure white light, heading straight for the black-clad demon envoy's face. Xia Xiang teleported forward and grabbed the white-haired demon envoy by the throat.

"Don't move!" Xia Xiang was too short, so the white-haired demon envoy was pulled down with great force and knelt on both knees.

"Demon Slayer Warrior!!!" The black-clad demon envoy exclaimed in shock after dodging the Demon Slayer Slash, "How did you get here!"

"None of your business!" Xia Xiang's expression was fierce, and her hand unconsciously tightened its grip.

"Hey, be gentle!" the white-haired demon envoy struggled slightly. "Don't get agitated!"

“You’re different from those demon-slaying warriors.” The black-clad demon envoy’s eyes widened in surprise. “They were out there cutting down wandering souls before, and of course they weren’t as short as you.”

Xia Xiang silently tightened her grip on the white-haired demon's neck: "..."

"Sister... Sister... You are so tall, so incredibly tall. If you pull any harder, my neck will break." The white-haired demon envoy managed to utter, his originally deathly pale face now slightly flushed.

"Are you provoking me like this, without any regard for the lives of your colleagues?" Xia Xiang pointed the Demon-Slaying Slash at the black-clad demon envoy.

"You know he's just a colleague, not the boss," the black-clad demon envoy said, taking a slight step back, a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"Since he doesn't care whether you live or die, then go ahead and die. I don't care then." Xia Xiang wasn't surprised at all. After all, monsters have no feelings and wouldn't care whether their colleagues live or die.

Just when the white-haired demon envoy thought he was about to be strangled to death, Xia Xiang's Demon-Slaying Slash returned from behind the black-clad demon envoy and struck him.

"As a demon-slaying warrior, why don't you fight head-on? What kind of righteous person attacks from behind?" The black-clad demon envoy was surrounded by purple light, which blocked Xia Xiang's demon-slaying slash from behind.

Xia Xiang, her hand gleaming with white light, snapped the white-haired demon's neck, causing him to vanish into a wisp of black mist.

"It's such a small amount, but it's really too much for me." Xia Xiang raised her bracelet, and the screen showed that the value had only increased by a tiny bit.

"You have superpowers?" the black-clad demon said with some regret. "What a pity. I admired you a lot, but you are a hybrid of a demon-slaying warrior and a superpowered individual. You'll probably only reach this level in this lifetime."

"Here's a piece of advice: don't go any further. Just kill some wandering souls on the outskirts. Once you've reached a certain number, you can leave. Don't lose your life."

The threat of losing one's life was purely meant to scare the child. If these students who haven't graduated were killed in Rock Valley, almost everyone from the Valley Master down would be wiped out.

"I thought you were a smart person, oh no, a smart demonized person, but it seems you're just so-so." Xia Xiang recalled her Demon-Slaying Slash, preparing to abandon her previous plan and cut down the black-clad demon envoy as well.

"Oh, then tell me first, and I'll decide whether I want to be a little smarter."

The black-clad demon envoy stood with his hands in his pockets, as relaxed as if he were lying on his own sofa, completely unconcerned that the person opposite him was about to put him to death.

"You haven't been promoted in a long time, have you?" Xia Xiang put away the Demon-Slaying Slash.

"Oh, do you have any brilliant plans for promotion?" The black-clad demon envoy became interested and nodded.

"Take me to see the Valley Master. I'll kill him, then kill the Demon Envoy who's your level. Then you'll be the boss! You can have as many followers as you want." Xia Xiang said earnestly.

"If you don't kill me, I'll leave." The black-clad demon envoy turned and walked away.

"Although I do nothing all day but listen to my underlings' flattery, my head is still sane. Please don't drag me into your madness, thank you."

"Heh, you're quite polite." Xia Xiang followed him.

"You're a mixed-race person, so your success rate in exorcising demons is only 80%. Even with your superpower index, it's only around 8,000 points. Who can you possibly kill?"

The black-clad demon envoy grumbled, "Not counting that white-haired guy, he was also tricked by his former boss."

"That guy on the outskirts wanted to level up twice in one go, so he told the demon-slaying warriors that the mission was to eliminate the four demon envoys. His former boss then handed over his position to him and went to hide in the deep valley."
