Yi Wenbai found An Ge's expression somewhat amusing. He suppressed his doubts and looked at An Ge with a serious expression. Although his strength was suppressed, his skills and experience were still unmatched by anyone of the same cultivation level.
The two fought with increasing ferocity, and soon, the demons watching also noticed something was wrong.
"Don't you guys think their moves are similar?"
"Even I, who am not a sword cultivator, noticed it; it's exactly the same!"
Jiang Shang finally arrived at the Holy Tower, and when he looked up, he almost fainted. He rubbed his eyes and found that the scene in front of him had not changed. He pointed at the big screen with a trembling finger, unable to speak for the first time.
What happened? How did his apprentice end up fighting with his master?
Wait, wait, when did his little apprentice become a demon saintess? If he wasn't mistaken, the power his apprentice was radiating was magic!
Jiang Shang was completely dizzy, feeling that he had never been as shocked as he was today in all his thousands of years of life.
An Ge's magic power was almost exhausted at this point. She mustered all her strength and unleashed her strongest attack, "Soul Steal!"
The fourth move of the Nine Heavens Sword Technique, Soul Stealing, can generate a powerful attack on the soul. Combined with the characteristics of the Azure Flame itself, the effect is doubled.
Yi Wen felt the terrifying power and quickly used magic to defend himself. Even so, his soul was still damaged. His eyes were filled with shock. From the very beginning of the battle, he had noticed that the Holy Maiden's sword techniques were significantly stronger than his. This difference was especially evident in the fourth move.
It wasn't that he didn't want to end the battle, but that he could only use the fourth move of this sword technique at most. It wasn't because of his ability, but because this plane only allowed the fourth move to exist.
If he wants to unleash the fifth move, he must use immortal power. In that case, the Holy Tower may not be able to withstand his power, and the Heavenly Dao will also issue a warning.
Yi Wenbai took a deep breath and silently chanted "fine, fine," barely managing to suppress his immortal power. He had paid a heavy price to resist the fourth move and was no longer able to attack. Fortunately, judging from the saintess's condition, she seemed to have reached her limit as well.
An Ge was already exhausted. If she continued fighting, she would have to use the power of the Wood Spirit Orb and the Seed of the Plane, which would expose her identity. Just as she hesitated, a flash appeared before her eyes, and she was transported outside the Holy Tower.
Seeing the demons' gleaming eyes, An Ge felt completely disoriented. She mechanically turned her head; that was the very battlefield where the two had fought. Just by looking at the chaotic scene, one could tell how intense the battle had been.
Kang Lao!
An Ge was furious, wishing she could grab the old man and beat him to a pulp. After her anger came relief; thankfully, she hadn't used her life force, and thankfully, she hadn't suffered a crushing defeat.
Looking at Yi Wenbai, who was equally exhausted, An Ge's guard was no longer on her face. Even though she had lost her composure and rationality due to the disguise drug, she knew that the person in front of her could not possibly be someone from the Evil God's faction.
Yi Wenbai hadn't expected so many people to gather around; he figured this was probably what they called "viewing mode." However, he quickly calmed down. The fight just now seemed more like a friendly spar; the Holy Maiden and the Demon Clan probably wouldn't think he was causing trouble, right?
"The Holy Maiden is amazing!" The demons reacted and cheered. Although the battle between the two was inconclusive, how old was their Holy Maiden? Moreover, they knew that Her Highness had not used her full strength at all, such as the demonic power that made their blood boil.
Before the four demon lords could speak, the eldest prince spoke up, "Your Highness, are you alright? This human dared to harm our Holy Maiden! I will not let him get away with this!" He then glared angrily at Yi Wenbai.
The four demon lords, who were a step too late, cursed the eldest prince for being shameless and refused to back down, saying, "We swear to protect Her Highness the Holy Maiden to the death."
As the demons became more alert, the atmosphere suddenly became tense again.
Tao Le quickly said, "Everyone, don't misunderstand, this is a misunderstanding!" Then, realizing something was amiss, she added, "We don't have any animosity towards the demon race; we're just having a friendly spar."
Yi Wenbai nodded. "That's true."
The Demon King's vigilance did not decrease. With the opponent's strength, the entire demon race might not be able to resist without the Holy Maiden. He did not believe that such a human was without malice.
"What brings you two to our demon realm?"
Tao Le was taken aback by the question, and after a long while, she slowly replied, "Didn't your demon race say that you wanted to open up to the outside world and welcome people from all walks of life to watch the grand ceremony?"
Now it was the Demon King's turn to be silent!
Despite this situation, they haven't completely changed their minds yet. The human race must also think that the demon race has a conspiracy, so no human race came to the Holy Maiden Ceremony.
How could he be at ease knowing that a human had finally arrived, and one with such great strength?
Just then, An Ge said, "These two should not have any bad intentions towards the demon race. As they said, our sparring is just a friendly exchange."
When the Holy Maiden spoke, the demons, who had initially been skeptical, immediately changed their attitude. They were trying to rebuild their image and couldn't allow their friends to perceive them as barbaric.
"I see, we misunderstood you two."
"Yes, yes, we demons welcome all friendly foreign races. It was all a misunderstanding before."
The Demon King… He knew the Holy Maiden held a high position among the demons, but seeing it with his own eyes still pained him. Oh well, with the Holy Maiden here, it seems there's nothing more for him to do. He should go back and heal his injuries.
An Ge was about to dismiss the demons when she suddenly noticed a familiar aura. She turned her head and saw her master with vacant eyes, and almost blurted out "Master".
Yi Wenbai followed An Ge's gaze and saw an old man with white hair and a youthful face. He didn't pay much attention at first, but suddenly those eyes brought back memories of seven thousand years ago. Sensing that the other person was also an ascendant, he widened his eyes in surprise.
This is my little apprentice! Then I was a little puzzled. It seems that this saintess knows my apprentice?
This was not the time for them to acknowledge each other. An Ge let the reluctant demons leave and returned to the Saintess Palace. A short while later, she saw her master.
"Master, why have you come to the Demon Realm?" An Ge exclaimed in surprise.
Jiang Shang said irritably, "If I hadn't come, you would have turned the Demon Clan upside down." After scolding her, he looked at An Ge's energetic appearance and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he didn't know how his disciple had ended up in the Demon Realm and even become a Demon Saintess, he was relieved that she wasn't injured. Just as he was about to ask An Ge why she had gotten into a fight with her grandmaster, he saw An Ge suddenly look in a certain direction.
"What brings you two to this holy maiden's presence?"
Yi Wenbai and Tao Le had no intention of hiding it, and appeared openly before An Ge, saying, "Your Highness, we have only come to see an old friend."
Although An Ge harbored no hatred towards the two men, she had not forgotten how they fought desperately against her in the Holy Tower. Now that she had someone to rely on, An Ge felt even more confident!
