Chapter 405: The Angry Shen Xitang

The Heartless Demon Lord fled.

The high-ranking members of the Demon Clan also escaped.

For the Demon Clan warriors, this was akin to the sky collapsing.

But reality is just this cruel.

Lu Ye was chasing An Li.

Of course, An Li couldn’t outrun the Heavenly Demon Blood Escape, so she could only tap into the power of the Darkness Origin.

The Heavenly Dao took this opportunity to strike hard.

“Isn’t your damage a bit pathetic?” Lu Ye frowned and asked.

Sure, a single bolt of heavenly lightning could wipe out centuries of accumulated Darkness Origin, but after such a long time, good luck inflicting any real harm in a short while.

“Ding, we’re using a medium to strike; it can’t help it—heavenly thunder’s power just doesn’t ramp up,” Shen Xitang said helplessly.

“Hmm…”

Lu Ye pondered for a moment.

“Is there no other way?” he asked.

“Ding, none for now.”

“I have one!”

“Ding?”

The System’s voice sounded confused.

She doesn’t have any, and her host does? Can the host really be that clever?

“System!”

“Ding!”

“Start calculating how to inflict greater damage to the Darkness Origin!”

“Ding…”

“Host, you’re a dog…”

“Ding, starting calculations!”

Forced calculations—now that felt nice.

This was Lu Ye’s idea; with the System’s powerful calculation abilities, surely a good way could be found.

“Beep, sister?”

“Beep, why aren’t you moving?”

“Beep, beep beep? Really not moving?”

…

Confirming that the System really wasn’t moving, the Heavenly Dao couldn’t help but start getting bolder.

“Beep, ding! Host! I’m your sister!”

Lu Ye…

“Ding, you can’t hit me now, right? Hehe…”

“Ding, now the host is my host, host host, call me ‘Good Heavenly Dao!’”

“Ding, I want to ride on my sister’s head!”

Lu Ye…

Wow, Little Heavenly Dao has gotten so cocky?

Let her be!

There’ll come a day when she regrets it!

Lu Ye could almost imagine Little Heavenly Dao being smacked down by Shen Xitang.

“Ding, host, host, call me ‘Good Heavenly Dao!’ Or ‘Divine Heavenly Dao’ works too!”

“Ding, I’m begging you!”

“Ding, I’m bowing down before you, please call me ‘Divine Heavenly Dao!’”

Lu Ye shook his head helplessly, “Divine Heavenly Dao.”

“Boom! Boom boom boom!”

Suddenly, the sound of countless thundering roars echoed through the void, sounding so exaggerated it was almost like giggling.

The Heavenly Dao was absolutely thrilled.

Now, Shen Xitang was locked in calculations, stuck in a motionless state; for it, this was truly like a tiger being away from home with monkeys declaring themselves kings.

It was all about bouncing around wildly.

“Don’t get separated!” Lu Ye said in a deep voice.

“Beep, yes!”

…

“You’re running this slow; it’s no wonder I’m upset!” An Li said coldly.

“We’ve reached the limit of the Fifth Heaven; if we go any faster, the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens will show up,” Lu Ye replied.

“Hmm, let him strike for a bit; have you arranged someone out in the abyss?” An Li asked.

“Arranged!”

“Then I’ll lure Lu Ye out. Once he’s out, the threat will be nearly gone.”

An Li dashed straight toward the abyss. To be honest, their speed was already at its utmost.

Nonetheless, even so, it took a while for them to reach the barrier of the Nine Heavens.

The Darkness Origin was almost left reeling; it had no idea how many times it had been struck, but it truly felt the pain.

“Hubby, this time, I’m winning big-time!”

An Li stopped with a beaming smile.

Lu Ye halted as well.

The Heavenly Dao continued to strike the Darkness Origin endlessly.

Lu Ye certainly wasn’t in a hurry.

“In my past life, I died eight times, relying solely on my last life to reach the Celestial Lord peak. Do you realize that even if you annihilate one or two of my lives now, it doesn’t matter?”

“When all eight of my lives disappear, that’ll be when the real fight begins.”

Usually, Lu Ye wouldn’t talk so much, but with the Heavenly Dao still striking the Darkness Origin, why hurry?

Just saying a little bit of nonsense could weaken the Darkness Origin’s strength; Lu Ye would gladly talk for ten thousand years without shutting up.

“Ha ha ha, hubby, you’re still like in your past life, always looking for excuses to accept things. You actually lost, truly lost. In your past life, your feelings were thoroughly defeated. In this life, you’re not focused on feelings anymore, yet you’re still utterly defeated in your proud cultivation and battles.”

An Li laughed so gleefully.

At that moment, Lu Ye couldn’t help but ponder.

How should he respond?

He’d always been poor with words, and he didn’t want to reveal the truth to An Li.

Right now, he needed a helper!

System!

“Pause calculations!”

“Beep?”

Little Heavenly Dao riding on Shen Xitang’s neck sounded confused.

“Ding, pausing calculations!”

“Ah!”

Little Heavenly Dao let out a tragic cry.

“Ding, I’ll deal with you later!”

Colorful radiance enveloped the scene, and the stunning and unmatched Shen Xitang appeared next to Lu Ye, her face full of rage.

She fixed her eyes on An Li, grabbing Lu Ye’s arm tightly so that it was completely ensconced within her grasp.

Lu Ye…

“Stinky old rat in the gutter, An Li, you think my brother lost in love?”

An Li stared unblinking at Shen Xitang, her gaze shifting to Lu Ye’s trapped arm.

“Who are you?” An Li’s excitement faded, her mood becoming serious.

“What does it matter who I am? Just a rat hiding in the shadows, a self-important clown—do you think you’re worthy to know?”

“You think Lu Ye lost in emotions last life? Ha ha ha, that’s truly ridiculous!”

“Do you think Lu Ye reborn isn’t just shedding the Guardian of the Great Dao, casting you eight aside, and that’s a bad thing? You can’t seriously think Lu Ye didn’t notice your actions in his past life, right?”

“You really don’t think Lu Ye loves you, that you could play him like a puppet, right?”

“It’s all in your head; you think you’re so clever, that you can control hearts, and that you’re invincible—what’s the reality?”

“Do you know there are eyes watching you, scrutinizing every move, observing you thinking you’re a clown, puffed up with pride?”

“Look, thanks to your relentless efforts, Lu Ye is now mine!”

“Thanks for your schemes!”

“Thanks for your clownish performances!”

“Thanks for your self-importance!”

“Thanks to you!”
