Whoosh!
In an instant, the water temperature rose to a boiling state as several waves came crashing through,
forming yet another tsunami. Any adjective used to describe tsunamis wouldnât even be enough to
show how large the waves were. An exceedingly intense pressure covered the entire ocean. It was
endless, paired with pure demonic Chi.
When forced onto a human, it was like a sharp blade, stabbing and slicing their minds into shreds.
âAhhh!!!â Esmeralda let out a painful shriek, holding her head with her hands. She felt like her brain was
about to explode.
Rowan initially wanted to bring her over while hiding the both of them with his spell so that the big guy
wouldnât notice them. However, seeing Esmeralda like this, he knew that he must help her somehow. If
she didnât have enough mental power for this, her mind might break down, causing her to become
mentally crippled.

Alex
âNamo Namoâ¦â
âReveal theeâ¦â
He started chanting a holy melody, with patterns of lotus flowers coming out of his mouth. Every note
within this chant glistened with gold, leaving several golden petals flowing around the two. This formed
a beautiful golden shield to protect them from the Peacock Heavenly Kingâs spiritual pressure.
In the end, the peacock noticed Rowan and Esmeralda, hence becoming its target. Shrieking, it dashed
towards them immediately.
Rowan
Alex
âYou dumb*sses, what are you two doing?!â
âWhy did you make such a loud commotion? Do you have a death wish?â
âJust run!â
Rowan could hear how panicked Esmeralda sounded when she yelled at him through telepathy. He
knew that she was currently within the Peacock Heavenly King. She could also be using some other
way, but it was clear that she could see or sense Rowanâs current movements.

He brought out the Immortal Butcher and whispered. âHow else would Ibe able to lure this big guy out?â
He then turned to Esmeralda. âEsmeralda, run now! Iâll stall it!â
Yet Esmeralda seemed confident. âI donât need protection. Iâm here to fight! So donât treat me like a
weakling.â
She took two steps to the front, putting her body before Ludwig. Shouting, a large green snake
appeared right before her, rushing towards the peacock with great speed.
Ludwig.
Alex.
That was not Esmeralda herself and was instead a type of phantasm. Despite this, it looked real and
seemed tremendously strong. Even then, she was currently facing the Peacock Heavenly King, a being
that ruled the world for an entire era during ancient times.
âHow annoying!â The Peacock Heavenly King slashed his claws towards it, instantly turning the snake
into dust
âUhm. I guess thatâs not exactly weak!â
Rowan couldnât bear to watch any longer, but something didnât seem rightâ¦
Rowan
Alex
Whoosh!
A bright green light shone through where the snake disappeared. It had been replaced by a long green
sword, heading straight for the peacockâs eyes. Hence, the green snake was just a decoy, and the
sword was the actual attack.
Despite the smart move, the results were still not quite idealâ¦
The Peacock Heavenly King immediately closed its eyes, revealing its golden eyelids. When the sword
landed on its eyelids, it was instantly blocked off. It was simply unimaginable how hard a mere eyelid
was.
âItâs so tough!â
Esmeralda let out a shout again, controlling the green sword again. After it bounced back, it turned into
hundreds of flying swords, forming a circular sword formation that surrounded the peacock.
Later on, she attacked it relentlessly.
