Lin Hao felt that the biggest misfortune of his life was probably meeting Tian Ning...
He hated Lan Yan for bringing this girl into the Ten Thousand Demon Cave. He hated Lin Zeyu for being such a brainless idiot and provoking Tian Ning over Lan Yan's death! He regretted his own foolishness in choosing this time to retrieve his things, only to run into this jinx!
Lin Hao turned his head in grief and said with difficulty, "You are so vicious!"
She's the most vicious woman ever!
You've ruined him!
Tian Ning blinked, his face full of innocence: "Former Demon Lord, how could you say that?"
“We are partners who have gone through thick and thin together. You can’t abandon me and leave alone.”
Lin Hao: "..."
Tian Ning spoke with utmost sincerity: "Back then, you told me that you wanted me to witness with my own eyes the glorious moment when you regained the Demon Lord's throne, and that you would crush the villain who stole your throne under your feet!"
"It is precisely because we hold such a great and lofty ideal that we stand here!"
"Now, the opportunity is right in front of us!"
She spoke with such conviction and force that it seemed she could seize power over Lin Hao at any moment.
Lin Hao: "..."
What utter nonsense about lofty ideals?
Lin Hao wished he could shut her up right then and there!
She always uses "you" so respectfully, but I've never seen her show this much respect when there aren't so many people around!
The Demon Lord, seated atop the black tiger, sneered, "Lin Hao, I never imagined you wouldn't have died under the tribulation lightning of the Ten Thousand Demon Cave. And now, you've even stooped to colluding with the righteous path?"
Lin Hao broke down: "We're not familiar with each other!"
That girl is a menace!
He shouldn't have gotten involved with her at all!
"You're lying!" Youxi, who had just finished kneeling and raised her head, pointed at the two men and accused them frantically: "Father, it was the two of them who attacked us together just now, which shows that they had been planning this for a long time!"
Lin Hao: "..."
Now there's no way to clear my name, no matter what.
"Grab them both."
At the Demon Lord's command, the demon cultivators swarmed forward instantly, unleashing countless sharp weapons—swords, talismans, hammers, and flying arrows—giving the two no chance to escape.
"Former Demon Lord, are you ready?"
Unable to summon the other swords, Tianning simply wielded one sword in each hand and gripped a handful of talismans in the other, ready to face the upcoming battle. She smiled brightly, appearing brimming with confidence: "Today, let's join forces and crush them!"
Lin Hao remained silent.
Lin Hao just wanted to burst into tears.
No, she has so many accomplices, why does she have to drag me into it?!
But those damned bastards have already attacked.
Lin Hao gritted his teeth and urged his demonic energy to fight with all his might. If he hadn't found the treasure and consumed it in time, he probably would have been killed by Tian Ning long ago.
Lin Hao took a deep breath, skillfully dodging the three poison needles coming towards him. He muttered something to himself, and dark blue-black demonic energy surged around him. As a reckless demonic cultivator pounced, Lin Hao dodged to the side, revealing his palm hidden in his sleeve. In an instant, he reached straight for the opponent's chest and began to greedily devour the demonic energy within his body.
But before they could absorb the energy for long, some troublesome scumbags attacked from above with star-shattering hammers.
Lin Hao immediately abandoned his prey and retreated to avoid it, but he was still swept by the sword energy of a demonic cultivator next to him. Then one demonic cultivator after another attacked him. After facing so many people, even though he had a treasure to quickly restore his demonic power, he was still seriously injured.
Tian Ning, who was also surrounded, simply threw out a large bag of explosive talismans, but no matter how many explosive talismans there were, they were no match for so many demonic cultivators.
Amid the explosion, a burly demonic cultivator was the first to rush out. His broadsword gleamed with a chilling light as he grinned and said, "Little girl, you'd better watch out, or my precious sword will ruin your pretty little face!"
"You don't have that ability."
