After a fierce battle, both sides had almost exhausted their treasures. On the side of the demon army, the battle between the army supporting the Ghost King and the Nine Muyu had reached a stalemate. Suddenly, cries of killing could be heard from the distance! It turned out to be The Maiden of the Celestial Realm and the Shura Witch of their respective tribes, joining the battle. They had feigned retreat earlier and had been lying in ambush nearby, waiting for the right moment. With their arrival, the tide of the peripheral battle had shifted in favor of the Nine Muyu, and victory was now just a matter of time.
However, even though the Ghost King was covered in blood and heavily wounded, he had not died yet! He began launching a fierce attack against the Nine Muyu, shouting, "You despicable bastard!!!"
The Nine Muyu couldn't hold on and kept getting pushed back, while The Maiden of the Celestial Realm trio attacked the Ghost King from the side and rear. But the Ghost King fought relentlessly, ignoring his injuries.
"Oh no! If we continue like this, The Maiden of the Celestial Realm will be in danger!!!" Star Dance shouted.
"Bang!!!" The Ghost King sent the Nine Muyu flying with a punch, then directly used his muscles to block the Shura Witch's knife, and slapped her, causing her face to be covered in blood as she flew out.
Although The Maiden of the Celestial Realm were agile, the Ghost King opened his mouth wide and spewed out a purple mist that they desperately tried to dodge but still got sprayed by.
"Ah..." Suddenly, The Maiden of the Celestial Realm let out a delicate cry. She turned red and felt hot all over her body, her physiological responses becoming dulled due to the interference.
The Ghost King continuously attacked with his big club, fiercely knocking both Ziwan and The Maiden of the Celestial Realm out one after another.
Both of them had bleeding hands and were heavily injured, even though they hadn't been directly hit, the tremendous shock had greatly damaged their vitality!
"This won't work! We will lose if we continue like this!" The Maiden of the Celestial Realm panicked. The confidence on her face was replaced by a hint of fear. She knew very well what failure meant!
"Sakuko! Help us!!!" This time, The Maiden of the Celestial Realm's voice carried a plea!
"But..." Sakuko still trembled, unable to make up her mind!
"Sakuko, if you don't take action, everyone will die! You won't be able to escape death yourself! No! Perhaps the fate of you four beauties will become even more tragic!!!" Star Dance shouted.
"I, I know, but... I am, after all, the Ghost King's wife, I, I can't..."
"Aunt Sakuko!!!" Xu Chen also shouted, "Didn't you say you wanted to see your hometown? Didn't you want to go with me? Shouldn't your happiness and freedom be sought through your own efforts? What are you still hesitating about?!!!"
"Xu Chen, I..." Looking at Xu Chen's sincere eyes, Sakuko's heart was extremely shaken, but she still couldn't muster up the determination to make such a decision!
"It's out of our control now! Qingyin! Let's go!" Although they knew they couldn't harm the Ghost King, Star Dance also took out her sickle and joined Qingyin in charging towards the Ghost King to assist in battle!
"Hmph! A few women with the power of minor magic dare to challenge me!" The Ghost King smashed The Maiden of the Celestial Realm with his big club, then punched Star Dance's sickle, crushing it!
"What?!?" The Maiden of the Celestial Realm had known beforehand that they were no match, but they didn't expect the difference in strength to be this huge!
Immediately after, the Ghost King swung his big club directly at Star Dance!
"No!!!" It was too late, Star Dance couldn't withstand this blow!
However, the Ghost King suddenly turned his club around and used the handle to hit Star Dance in the abdomen, knocking her unconscious. Then, he grabbed her and raised his club high, aiming at her head.At this moment, Star Dance had lost consciousness and was held weak and limp in the Demon King's hand.
"Stop!!!" the Demon King roared.
Although the Demon King appeared rough and arrogant, he wasn't actually foolish. He had already suffered serious injuries, and if he were to fight the three beautiful maidens and Jiumu, even if he killed them, he would almost certainly not survive. Especially with the large army surrounding them, while they posed little threat to the Demon King, their sheer numbers would still be overwhelming!
He shouted, "Anyone who dares to come closer, I'll kill this woman right now!"
The Celestial Realm Maidens didn't know Star Dance, but they didn't want to burden the innocent. They asked, "Who is she?"
"Star Dance!" Xu Chen and Qingyin exclaimed, "It's the Demon King! Don't harm Star Dance!"
Saiko also shouted, "Your Majesty! Don't hurt her!"
"Hmph! Who are you people to me?" The Shura Witch was about to attack again.
"Clang!" However, Saiko blocked her with a slender and beautiful long sword.
"Lady Saiko? Why?" the Shura Witch asked.
"You must not lay a finger on anyone anymore! Stop it!" Saiko shouted.
For a moment, Saiko and Xu Chen's side prevented everyone from acting, making it difficult for the Celestial Realm Maidens to execute their moves.
Seeing the situation, the Demon King smirked, then suddenly he shouldered Star Dance and jumped fiercely, breaking through the roof and escaping!
"What!!! The Demon King escaped!?" The Celestial Realm Maidens exclaimed in surprise.
"Star Dance!" Xu Chen looked at Star Dance being taken away as a hostage by the Demon King, completely caught off guard. How could the Demon King choose to escape? Everyone thought he was going all out!
"Chase him!" The Celestial Realm Maidens were the first to rush towards the roof.
The Shura Witch, Jiumu, and Ziwan followed closely behind!
"Aunt Saiko!"
"We... will also chase!" Saiko, still a little dazed, knew that Xu Chen and the others couldn't fly, so she took out a treasure flying boat and flew out of the roof with them, following the Celestial Realm Maidens in pursuit.
