Chapter 654: Chapter 370: Xia Pingzhou’s Third Contracted Demon (Double-Length)

The girl in the school uniform tugged at her tie, drew the sheath from her waist, and opened her eyes, which were as dark as the polar night. She swung the sword in the air, her black hair dancing in the wind.

"Haven’t really cut a demon that was originally human, quite novel." Yanmo Lin said.

The Lazy Demon asked softly, "You don’t seem like people from Lake Hunting. Why are you doing this? Could it be... that you were hired by Lake Hunting as exorcists, then we really are caught by you." As she spoke, she glanced towards the Furious Demon with the corner of her eye.

At this moment, the shield transformed by the Furious Demon was continuously blocking the countless onslaughts of the Queen Giant.

And the Lazy Demon soon noticed, under a maple tree further away, stood a young man wearing a black hoodie. Around him, black and white halos circulated, forming a circular track.

On the track were countless chess piece shadows, dazzling like stars shining.

At this point, Xia Pingzhou had already picked one of the chess piece shadows, summoning the King Giant. He ordered the King to stay behind him, using the scepter’s power to protect himself in case of emergencies.

"How foolish." The Lazy Demon said, "Just the two of you? Even a whole unit wouldn’t be enough for us." With that, the girl wearing a wizard hat rode a broomstick straight up into the sky.

Then, an unexpected song spread across almost the entire maple forest, disturbing the night’s tranquility.

Xia Pingzhou looked up.

The Lazy Demon, while opening her throat and singing out loud, looked down at the entire maple forest.

Her song could make any creature who heard it fall into a deep sleep instantly, except for those with spiritual power strong enough to withstand it.

However, at this moment, black and white halos spread out from the King’s scepter, protecting Xia Pingzhou from the intrusion of the song.

Yanmo Lin was not indifferent either.

A flash of blood moon-like eerie light flickered, and suddenly, a Swastika-shaped opening appeared on her tachi’s guard. Immediately, the blade opened up like the pores of a monster, and countless twisted ghosts roared and drilled out from it.

In the blink of an eye, the ghosts entwined all over her body.

"Curse." This was the unique ability that awakened in the "Demon Blade" form after Yanmo Lin’s Celestial Driver advanced to Tier Three — enhancing her power by latching onto the ghosts within the demon blade.

The power of this move depended on the number of ghosts under her blade. The more ghosts, the stronger the curse power. But the cost was that every time she used this ability, her lifespan would be drained.

Most crucially, in the Curse Form, Yanmo Lin could be immune to most spiritual abilities.

Because the wailing and screaming of the spirits in her mind were far louder and sharper than the song of the Lazy Demon.

Seeing this, Xia Pingzhou no longer looked at Yanmo Lin’s side, "I shouldn’t worry about her... if she dies at the hands of the demon instead of me, the second unit would explode on the spot."

He looked up at that seemingly indestructible shield, the Furious Demon appeared to be like a turtle tucked in its shell, taking the beating unilaterally, and the Queen Giant’s power was clearly not enough to destroy this shield.

At this moment, the skull of the Furious Demon engraved on the surface of the shield was already sweating profusely.

It knew it was born as a weapon, only able to unleash its full potential when attached to another.

In this solitary state, its performance was far less than usual Catastrophe Level demons.

Originally its user was the "Pride Demon" of the Seven Deadly Sins, the elder brother of Furious, who willingly used it. But Pride had already died at the hands of the previous Lake Hunting, leaving "Furious" completely useless.

At this moment, Xia Pingzhou suddenly picked one of the chess piece shadows on the track. It was the "Sewer Demon" he harvested in Tokyo.

With a "crack," the chess piece shadow shattered. In this moment, a little demon in protective gear, holding a giant water gun, emerged.

And its water gun was loaded with a greenish-yellow liquid composed of feces and urine.

Meanwhile, the shield transformed by the Furious Demon was still being suppressed by the overwhelming attacks of the Queen’s Statue, leaving no opportunity to escape.

"Stop resisting, or you will be drowned by human feces and urine," Xia Pingzhou said expressionlessly, "Even if you can block most attacks, you can’t block the smell of feces and urine, your shield will turn into a dung ball."

Pausing, he pinched his nose: "For humans, this is the ultimate punishment."

Saying so, the Sewer Demon raised its giant water gun, first shooting a spray of thick yellow liquid at the maple tree beside it, then, while grinning wickedly, aimed the nozzle at the Furious Demon.

"Despicable human!" The Furious Demon momentarily stunned, then roared in fury, "Lazy, what are you doing, hurry and deal with that guy!" Saying so, the Furious on the shield turned its gaze, only to be suddenly startled.

Under the night moon, above the forest, the body of the Lazy Demon had already been sliced in half by a dark red demon blade down the middle.

She was split into two just like that, with only a bloody lower half left on the broomstick. Yanmo Lin perched on the branch of the maple tree, her skirt fluttering, her whole being leaping straight up like a falcon.

She drew her blade from its sheath, the sword rose and fell, slashing the upper half of the body flying in the air apart as well.

Then, the girl in the school uniform stepped on the forest wood and slowly landed, closing her eyes. The Demon Blade exuded a lingering aura as it slowly withdrew into the hollow, and the wailing of ghosts around her ears was no longer heard.
