"Is she really the Girl of Destiny?!"

Even though all the facts before her eyes were telling Shuoyue that the woman in front of her was the Girl of Destiny she remembered, instinctively, Shuoyue felt an indescribable sense of strangeness. That silver-haired girl felt very bizarre.

But regardless, the silver-haired girl’s goal was to kill her and Yuan’er, this was beyond doubt. Shuoyue wasn’t the type to stubbornly confront an enemy head-on. Since there was almost no chance of victory, the best option for Shuoyue was undoubtedly to retreat. Thinking this, Shuoyue didn’t hesitate, directly grabbing Yuan’er’s hand and flying towards the Winter Forest! She instantly used acceleration magic to put dozens of kilometers between them and the silver-haired girl.

However, how could the silver-haired girl let them have their way?!

In the next moment, surrounded by silver light, Mengxi suddenly transformed into a silver meteor, rushing out of the castle at an inconceivable speed towards Shuoyue and Yuan’er! Although Shuoyue had already retreated at full speed with Yuan’er, they were still caught up by the silver-haired girl in an instant! Even with their acceleration magic, they couldn’t avoid her.

Looking at the two Demon Kings with terrified expressions, Mengxi’s eyes showed no mercy. She raised her long sword high, destructive energy rapidly gathering at the sword’s edge, the entire blade gradually enveloped by a golden holy light.

Then, the silver-haired girl swung her sword, mercilessly slashing towards Shuoyue and Yuan’er.

"Damn it!"

Feeling the destructive aura brought by the holy light on the sword, as well as the suffocating pressure of death, Shuoyue’s expression changed drastically, her blue-gold eyes full of intense unease. From birth until now, she who had almost always been scheming behind the scenes, for the first time experienced such a close threat of death.

Shuoyue’s body involuntarily began to tremble violently at this moment.

But Shuoyue was ultimately a powerful being, a terrifying Demon King codenamed ’Nightmare Succubus’. Extreme unease and fear wouldn’t make her sit and wait for death, but would only provoke her ferocity.

Facing the crisis, Shuoyue directly chose to go all out.

"Samsara Spirit Mirror! Corrosive Mist!"

In an instant, an energy barrier constructed of white-gold energy appeared without warning in front of Shuoyue, blocking Mengxi’s long sword! This was Shuoyue’s instantly castable defensive holy domain magic, Samsara Spirit Mirror. At the same time, the Shadow Power condensed into blue-gold mist, the ’Corrosive Mist’ with the ability to corrode spirits, suddenly appeared from all directions, surrounding Mengxi.

Faced with the danger of death, Shuoyue unhesitatingly used her two trump cards.

Not only Shuoyue, but Yuan’er, feeling Mengxi’s killing intent, although utterly disappointed, no longer dared to treat her as her dear elder sister. The Shadow Power suppressed within her body directly went all out.

In an instant, the black Shadow Power, like liquid, suddenly attached to Shuoyue’s defense, giving it a certain defensive boost. Not only that, but four ghost claws formed from the black liquid also rushed towards the silver-haired girl from all directions! This time, Yuan’er seemed to have made up her mind, her attack showing no reservation, even carrying a trace of killing intent.

However, in the next moment, with a swing of Mengxi’s holy sword, the four ghost claws were directly shattered! The blue-gold mist rushing towards the silver-haired girl was dispersed with a casual wave of her hand!

"Wh-what?!"

Under the astonished gaze of the two little ones, their attacks were so easily neutralized.

Not only that, the silver-haired girl pressed on with her attack. That strike filled with divine power, like a mighty hammer of judgment, directly smashed onto Shuoyue’s defensive magic.

BOOM!!

With an earth-shattering roar, the magic shield constructed with all the power of the two sisters was shattered by Mengxi’s single sword strike! In the sky, the silver-white holy light directly overwhelmed the two Shadow Powers with an unstoppable momentum.

"Cough cough!!"

The backlash from the shattered barrier, plus the damage taken from actively protecting Yuan’er, caused Shuoyue to uncontrollably spit out blood. Her back had been swept by the explosive energy, becoming a bloody mess.

Then, the soul impact brought by the holy energy caused unimaginable soul damage to Shuoyue, to the extent that Shuoyue, who already had a weak constitution, after a brief struggle, inevitably fell into the abyss of unconsciousness.

"D-damn it..."

The next moment, losing the support of the blue-gold Shadow Power, Shuoyue’s entire body unconsciously fell from the sky.

"Sis-Sister Shuoyue!!"

Yuan’er, who had just recovered from the explosion, hurriedly reached out to try to grab the severely injured Shuoyue.

However, the silver-haired girl would never give this opportunity.

A flash of silver light, Mengxi directly appeared in front of Yuan’er, and swung her sword mercilessly towards Yuan’er’s neck.

No, not good?!!

Although concerned about her sister’s safety, Yuan’er was undoubtedly already in a precarious situation herself. To resist Mengxi’s attack, all the power within her body was released at this moment, directly unleashing a massive Shadow Annihilation Cannon towards Mengxi! But, Yuan’er’s power was clearly qualitatively different from the silver-haired girl in front of her.

Yuan’er’s all-out effort, even with some soul power added to the black Shadow Annihilation she released, was directly split in two by the silver-haired girl’s sword without any suspense! The dispersed remnants of the Shadow Annihilation, although they leveled two distant mountain peaks, didn’t cause any hindrance to Mengxi.

After slicing through the Shadow Annihilation, the silver-haired girl’s blade rapidly enlarged in Yuan’er’s eyes. Originally, in the battle with Scarlet, Yuan’er had already consumed most of her energy. Now, after releasing another massive Shadow Annihilation, she was completely exhausted, utterly powerless to resist or counterattack, and could only watch helplessly as the scythe of death approached her.

"No, no!!"

Feeling the fear of death, Yuan’er directly raised her hands to cover her face, letting out a terrified cry.

However, just as the sword was about to strike Yuan’er in this moment of crisis, a huge pulling force suddenly came from behind Yuan’er, directly pulling her back and rapidly retreating, successfully dodging the silver-haired girl’s strike. The fruitless slash suddenly split a mountain below in two. Fortunately, Shuoyue had already led Yuan’er to escape a certain distance earlier, otherwise, if they had fought directly in the city, the losses would have been devastating.

A moment later, Yuan’er, who hadn’t felt the expected pain, instead smelled a familiar scent. The moment she smelled this scent, Yuan’er instantly recovered from her terrified state, and even turned her head back quite joyfully,

"Sis-Sister Youlan!!!!"

Looking at the honey-haired woman behind her who was rapidly retreating while pulling her arm, Yuan’er immediately let out a joyful and surprised cry.

Indeed, the one who appeared behind her was Yuan’er’s beloved big Sister Youlan. Of course, the one appearing now wasn’t Youlan in her childlike state, but Youlan who had released her power and restored her mature form. At this moment, Youlan was pulling Yuan’er with her right hand and holding the unconscious Shuoyue with her left, rapidly increasing the distance between them and Mengxi.

After pulling back to a safe distance, Youlan looked at the dumbfounded pink-haired girl with a doting and concerned gaze,

"Are you hurt?"

"N-no..."

Yuan’er shook her head.

Although she had exhausted her strength, she hadn’t suffered any serious injuries. Now Yuan’er was more concerned about Youlan’s condition.

Wasn’t her big sister in a childlike state? Why did she suddenly return to her original form?

"Sister Youlan, your, your form?"

"Well, it’s a complicated matter, I’ll tell you about it later when we have a chance."

Rubbing Yuan’er’s head, Youlan’s purple eyes were full of guilt.

"Do you still have any strength left?"

"Y-yes, I do."

"Then quickly take Shuoyue and retreat to the northern part of the forest."

Saying this, Youlan handed the unconscious Shuoyue to Yuan’er.

After taking her Sister Shuoyue, Yuan’er uneasily met Youlan’s gaze.

"What about you, Sister?"

"Me?"

Showing a bitter smile, Youlan helplessly turned her head to look at the other side, where a silver-haired girl was charging towards Youlan at full power!

Faced with this scene, Youlan’s eyes narrowed slightly, showing an unprecedented seriousness.

"Your big sister still has to stay behind to deal with this one."

"But?! That’s the Girl of Destiny! Sister Youlan, if you’re alone..."

"Don’t worry, I’m not the only one dealing with her."

As the words fell, a red and a deep purple Shadow Annihilation beam suddenly shot out from the sky, violently striking the charging silver-haired girl.
