My Master Knows It All-Chapter 1423 - 338_4

Clearly, when the little boy was speaking earlier, the female Demonic Cultivator happened to pass by and overheard his words. Feeling displeased, she came over to confront the boy.

The female demon glanced at the emblem on the chest of the female cultivator in front of her, her face showing a hint of disdain. She sneered, "Which sect are you from? How dare you meddle in the affairs of the Swallowing Demon Sect? If you don’t want to die, get lost!"

"You!" The female cultivator’s face showed obvious displeasure upon hearing this, and she immediately responded, "This is Wansheng City, where it’s forbidden for cultivators to kill recklessly. Are you really about to break the rules of Wansheng City?"

"Forbidden to kill recklessly? That applies to cultivators, not mortals. I want to kill this mortal right now—are you trying to stop me?

Do you really believe that even if you stop me, you’ll survive? And Wansheng City’s people won’t care. You’re just insignificant sect disciples. Do you think you’re in any position to interfere with someone from a Great Teaching?"

As the female demon spoke, ten phenomena-adorned Golden Cores emerged behind her, making it clear she was ready to strike at any moment.

Meanwhile, a male cultivator beside the female one quickly pulled her aside and whispered, "Junior Sister, don’t get the sect involved in unnecessary trouble." Although Wansheng City does prohibit cultivators from killing recklessly, the problem is that this female demon wants to kill a mortal. If they make a move, it would effectively mean they struck first.

At that point, should the demon kill them, not only might the city side with her for the sake of neutrality, but the fact that she’s from a Great Teaching further cements an advantage. Wansheng City would definitely favor the demon, leaving them at a loss.

Moreover, they are merely sect disciples and can’t afford to provoke someone from a Great Teaching.

"But..." The female cultivator was clearly extremely kind-hearted and still wanted to intervene to protect the child she deemed adorable. However, another female cultivator beside her also reached out and pulled her back.

The little boy once again faced the terrifying female demon directly. He felt her overwhelming aura, trembling uncontrollably, but still gritted his teeth, lowered himself to the ground, and stammered out, "I... I didn’t see you earlier, Fairy Sister. You are the prettiest Immortal I’ve ever seen! As for my flower... It’s my flower that isn’t beautiful enough, unworthy of you, Immortal Sister."

As he spoke, his words were overflowing with desperation to survive.

The demoness let out a smile upon hearing this, though the smile was filled with an eerie, sinister intent.

"So you’ve now learned to say sweet things? And where were these sweet words before? Also, I’m a Demonic Cultivator, and I hate being called an Immortal. Die!"

Her eyes suddenly flashed with a chilling killing intent as she raised her hand, delivering a deadly palm strike toward the boy.

Under the oppressive gust of energy from the strike, the boy’s clothes instantly tore open in multiple spots, and in the next moment, the horrifying attack was about to land on him, ending his life.

From the Void, a golden light descended, falling in front of the boy.

The palm strike collided with the golden light, dispersing instantly. Yet the radiant golden aura didn’t so much as waver.

The female demon abruptly turned her head, gazing into the distance. Her intention had merely been to casually kill a mortal child without using much mana. The power behind her strike was not significant, so it wasn’t surprising that someone blocked it. However, the aura from that golden light was overwhelmingly terrifying, even more intense than her own.

"Who’s there?!"

The female demon turned sharply and looked into the distance.

Soon, her gaze settled on three figures flying her way.

Three individuals—two emanating the aura of Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, and one radiating Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills. Yet, even the one with Nine Phenomena exuded an aura far surpassing her own.

Her pupils instantly narrowed as she focused on the Immortal dressed in Dragon Chant Sect robes, astounded. "Immortal Bi Yue! Cao Zhen!"

She had encountered Immortal Bi Yue before, though Bi Yue hadn’t recognized her at the time.

The male cultivator alongside Immortal Bi Yue, who radiated such terrifying aura and ranked among those bearing the Nine Phenomena Golden Pills, could only be one person—Cao Zhen.

She had merely acted on impulse after overhearing the boy’s comment and intended to casually kill him. He was just a mortal, and killing him wouldn’t matter—so she thought.

But never in her wildest imagination did she think this act would attract the attention of Immortal Bi Yue and Cao Zhen!

Clearly, the golden light from earlier came from either Immortal Bi Yue or Cao Zhen, and their purpose was to protect the boy.

Would they turn their ire on her?

Though she belonged to a Great Teaching, Immortal Bi Yue was likewise one of the elite from a Great Teaching. Moreover, Bi Yue held a vastly higher position in the Dragon Chant Sect than herself in the Swallowing Sect!

She had come to Wansheng City alone. If Immortal Bi Yue killed her here, there would be no one from the Swallowing Sect to back her up or stir trouble on her behalf.

Similarly, the city’s authorities wouldn’t intervene in such matters.

Escape!

Regardless of whether Bi Yue and Cao Zhen intended to act against her, fleeing was the wisest choice!

After glimpsing the three figures clearly, she turned abruptly and attempted to flee into the distance.

Yet, just as she turned away, the previously distant Immortal Bi Yue appeared immediately before her.

Bi Yue’s expression turned chilling, and she spoke coldly, "I addressed this boy as ’little brother’ earlier, and now you intend to kill him. Does this not amount to provoking me?"

Fearing for her life, the female demon shouted desperately, "No! I didn’t know he was acquainted with Immortal Bi Yue! Had I known he knew you, I would never have laid hands on him!"
