The Phoenix Clan wasn't worried about the safety of the innocent civilians in the Evil City; it was just that the poisonous fog technique was too insidious.
Once the spell is cast, even their own people will likely suffer.
"Think twice." Su Qing drew her sword and held it directly to the soldier's neck: "What I say is an imperial edict. Besides, nothing ventured, nothing gained."
Just as they activated the poisonous fog spell, no one expected that the gates of the Evil City would suddenly open.
Li Muge stood coldly atop the giant dragon, sword in one hand.
"Alright, it seems that this bitch Li Muge is planning to fight us head-on."
Su Qing went into a frenzy: "Send down the order that whoever can kill Li Muge, this princess will guarantee him a lifetime of promotions and riches."
But the other Phoenix Clan members acted as if they hadn't heard anything. It wasn't that they weren't tempted by Su Qing's offer, but rather that one had to be alive to enjoy such a status and wealth.
Li Muge was able to secure the position of Protector, something that ordinary soldiers like them could not possibly achieve.
"Quickly, release the poison fog! Now! This princess will make sure Li Muge dies without a burial place."
"No, Princess! If we release the poisonous fog at this time, what will happen to those soldiers with weak magical power? If they don't have enough cultivation to resist it, they will probably die on the spot."
"No." Su Qing immediately used magic to kill him: "Everyone in the Phoenix Clan must obey this princess."
"Release the poisonous fog for me." Su Qing took out the protective gemstone necklace that the Empress had given her.
This can protect her from the corrosive effects of the poisonous mist on her dagger.
But others were not so lucky; some with weak magical powers were directly corroded by the gray poisonous mist.
All that could be heard were screams growing louder and louder. In this battle, countless people lost their lives on the spot, leaving only skeletons.
Facing the gray poisonous mist, Li Muge took a half step back and cast a spell, causing light to appear in his hand.
To everyone's surprise...
The poisonous mist couldn't harm Li Muge at all; instead, it was all absorbed into the light in her palm.
"Li Muge, go to hell." Su Qing raised her hand, and a white silk ribbon tied around Li Muge's waist.
But how could she be a match for Li Muge? Li Muge narrowed his pupils, and countless flames burned onto the white silk.
Su Qing quickly cut the white silk.
At the same time, demon soldiers appeared from all directions of the army attacking the Evil City, drawing their bows and aiming at those attacking the city.
Niu Zhan was moved to tears.
"Guardian, I misunderstood the Demon Lord. I didn't expect that he still cares about you and couldn't let you go in the end. The Demon Lord is truly a model of a good man."
"From today onwards, the Demon Lord will be my idol."
"Shut up." Li Muge stood on the dragon's head, and her teeth ached with anger when she heard Niu Zhan's mindless praise of the Demon Lord.
"If I hadn't taken precautions beforehand, I probably wouldn't have survived even if I had waited for that pretty boy. Has his brain been kicked out by a donkey?"
"Ah, so that's how it is." Niu Zhan immediately brandished his broadsword: "That scoundrel Yun Qi is up to no good, I spit on him."
A woman in red, clad in armor, stood atop a giant dragon, a smirk playing on her lips.
She was terrifyingly rational when faced with the celestial army attacking her.
"You must always remember this day, because today is your last day. I'm sorry, you will never see the sun rise tomorrow."
After Li Muge finished speaking, he stretched out his hands, formed a hand seal, and struck the ground, sending countless flames rushing towards their soldiers.
The Celestial Realm suffered heavy losses, just like the Phoenix God Clan.
Upon seeing this, Su Qing immediately cast a spell to escape, but was immobilized by Li Muge.
Amidst the chaos of battle, Li Muge jumped down from the dragon's head. He patted the dragon's head, in high spirits.
The Phoenix Clan soldiers who tried to protect Su Qing all turned to ashes and disappeared on the spot as Li Muge approached.
"Li Muge, what do you want to do? I, I understand, this princess understands!" Su Qing's face beneath the veil was contorted with rage.
"You and the Demon Lord, you conspired to deceive our Immortal Realm. Your methods are truly despicable."
"Hahaha." Li Muge covered her mouth and chuckled, "Su Qing, what you said is really interesting?"
"Is the devil really so despicable in the eyes of you righteous people?"
"Isn't that right?" Su Qing's voice was mocking: "Li Muge, I should have been a noble princess, but it was you, it was you who stole my life."
"Without me, how could you have learned so many powerful spells? How could you have survived in the man-eating demon realm? How could you have become the Demon Lord and the Demon Queen?"
"It's all because of me. You stole my life. I was soft-hearted and spared your life, but how did you humiliate me?"
Su Qing's voice choked even more, and anyone who didn't know better would think she had suffered a great injustice.
“Li Muge, you have humiliated me in every way, hurt Emperor Wuchen, ruined my face, and even killed the father who raised you since you were a child.”
"Do you know that before Father died, he never blamed you? But what about you? Have you become a demon? Have you become so cold-blooded that you wouldn't even come to see him one last time and fulfill his last wish?"
Su Qing's words made Li Muge want to vomit. It was one thing for this person to be shameless, but to turn around and accuse someone was just too much.
"I'm not trying to be mean, Su Qing, but even if you are a princess, you are only a princess of your Phoenix Clan, not mine."
"I stole your life? That's ridiculous. When we switched places, I was still an egg. Besides, instead of blaming your father and mother for being careless and messing up our lives, you're blaming me, the protector."
"Oh, and your father, what's wrong with you righteous people? Don't you use your brains anymore?"
“It’s your father who wants to die with me. Even in death, it’s just a matter of the strong preying on the weak. Why look at him? Your father has tried to kill me time and time again. I’m hoping he dies soon and is reincarnated.”
"I have to be just like you, pretending to be a bodhisattva who forgives everything, but actually being vicious inside."
"But this face of yours still suits you quite well. It's a blessing from heaven that your heart and face are in harmony."
“You… Li Muge…” Su Qing tried to resist, but found that she couldn’t move.
"Li Muge, what have you done to this princess? I warn you, whatever you do to this princess, the Emperor will not let you go."
Every word Su Qing uttered was a direct confrontation with Li Muge, showing no sign of backing down, yet the fear in her eyes did not subside.
"It's alright." Li Muge's smile widened, her eyelashes relaxing. "Su Qing, this protector wants to ask you a question. Are you sure you must answer truthfully?"
"What's the problem?" Su Qing shrank back slightly in fear. Being pinned to the ground and rubbed against the ground so many times had given her a phobia of Li Muge.
When Li Muge raised his hand, Su Qing felt a jolt in her heart, causing her to tremble.
"Don't be afraid." Li Muge rolled up her sleeves, and the beauty mark at the corner of her eye made her even more beautiful.
To be frank, Li Muge and Su Qing are two extreme types.
One is as bright as fire.
A gentle and graceful woman.
