So what if Bai Yan got those demons to take back the amulet? The people from the Celestial Realm will never believe her....
Moreover, the old witch has also decided that Bai Yan doesnât have the ability to activate the amulet. If she did have the ability then why did she give her the item all those years ago?
Presumably...... this amulet, itâs not hers either. She probably snatched it from someone else as well.
Wingerâs gaze grew even more colder now after being refuted. Originally he wanted to stall for time until Di Cang awakens, but it seems he underestimated the trust these people had for the Celestial Palace.
âYun Ruo Xi, I made a grave mistake when I mistakenly believed you... So today, I, Winger, will use my life as proof to redeem myself. I am a member of the Demon Realm and will have nothing to do with the Celestial Realm!â
Boom!
His momentum blows up like a storm after that vow, growing several times more powerful than earlier. If the bird manâs aura could be considered worrying for the enemy earlier, then heâs downright threatening after powering up like this.
Keeper Ling naturally perceived this drastic change. Heâs tremoring inside, not out of cowardice, but an instinctive fear of the opponent at a cellular level. So, without a single word, this arrogant and grumpy senior did the only thing that came to his mind: turn tail and flee to the rear for cover.
The other Keepers also reacted similarly, sadly for them though, a few were too late in their pace. They simply didnât think its possible for the Demon City to hide someone so powerful thatâs not of the demon king.
PFFFF!!!!
One of the slowest runners didnât even know what hit him then. Without a moment to retaliate, this poor Keeper came crashing down to the ground in heavy thud, his eyes showing an intense fear at the ever-encroaching bird demon.
Winger didnât have time to waste here though like most people would be doing while they are at an advantage. He randomly picked up a sword from the battlefield and swung down at his decapitated foe, causing a huge gash to be ripped down the Keeperâs back. Thereâs enormous blood splatter due to the destructive energy in there.
This was exactly what Keeper Ling saw when he turned his head to take a look at his rear. Itâs horrific in the eye of this man, something he never even thought possible for a Demi Divine Lord to be slain so easily. Gritting his teeth: âWho the hell are you!â
âThe queen is my lifesaver.â
Because she is my lifesaver, I will not allow anyone to harm her family.
A shudder ran through the old witchâs heart after she heard what Winger said in his reply. Sheâs very weak and needed to lean in against an old tree for support, even so, this condition still didnât hinder her from clenching up those hands into a ball.
Why?
Why didnât Winger show such power when following me?
Why only when heâs by Bai Yanâs side does he become this powerful?
This man... did he do it on purpose? Deliberately hide his power?
The more she thought about it, the more frustrated and irater this old witch became.
Though to be fair, this time itâs not Wingerâs fault for misleading the woman. Itâs not on purpose, rather itâs for self-preservation from those hunting this bird man, which manifested into reality right then and there as the destructive lightning of purplish hue materializes above his head.
Winger saw this change of course and it made him fall into a panic. He honestly thought there would be more time for him to move before his whereabout was known. But no matter, heâs decided to see through to the end and wonât stop even if it meant his burial would be at hand.
