Chapter 223: Want to Eat?

Ying Ye just died like that?

Just grazed by a single laser and instantly killed?

Bai Yue Ling clenched her silver teeth, her gaze locked on the demon dragon princess not far away who had taken human form. Amid her vigilance, a thought still surfaced in her mind: ‘So lewd.’

Only a few cross-shaped dragon scales covered her body like bandages—the best kind.

“That human with the knife was so annoying, buzzing like a fly and refusing to let me eat her obediently… so I could only blast her into scraps~”

The demon dragon princess stuck out her crimson tongue, staring at Bai Yue Ling as she licked her lips, a crystal drop of saliva trailing down. “You won’t resist, right? Just one bite—just let me have one bite…”

She was a demon dragon fallen into the abyss, needing endless hunger to fill the depth and emptiness within.

Yet to her surprise, the human across from her showed not the slightest fear. Instead, she stared back with burning intensity.

The demon dragon princess frowned slightly. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

As if that big-breasted girl were the hunter, and she the prey.

“Why am I looking at you like that?”

Bai Yue Ling curled her lips into an excited, thrilled smile. “Of course because seeing a beautiful and lewd girl makes me excited!”

Suddenly, Bai Yue Ling raised her divine staff high and pointed forcefully toward where Ying Ye had fallen.

“Revive, my love!”

With a burst of white light, Ying Ye—who had just been blasted to ashes by the laser—reappeared.

Your teammate “Ying Ye” has been revived.

Ying Ye’s face was pale. She immediately pulled out a large bottle of health potion and gulped it down, restoring her vitality to full. Catching her breath, she said, “Sorry, Xiao Bai. I was careless. I didn’t expect that laser to deal such high damage—just touching it killed me.”

“It’s fine,” Bai Yue Ling said calmly. “Then we’ll just dodge the laser and beat her until she begs for mercy.”

“Mm.”

The two girls stood shoulder to shoulder, each assuming a combat stance.

“Hahaha… you can even come back from death? It seems that after one thousand years, the outside world has become very interesting!”

The demon dragon princess extended her claws and slashed a bloody gash across her delicate cheek. Dark purple mist continuously seeped from the wound as she laughed madly and shouted, “Listen well! You two ant-like humans—next I’ll slice your limbs apart with my claws, then make one of you watch as I eat the other alive! Hahahaha!”

“Disgusting,” Bai Yue Ling sneered. “Sorry, we’re not into ‘G’ play.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the forms of Bai Yue Ling and Ying Ye shifted abruptly. Pink and black beams erupted from their bodies, their auras surging to the peak.

Utter darkness and corruption intertwined with the divine power of the Goddess of Temptation. The surrounding air spun violently as towering demonic flames burst from around them, seeping strands of soul-stirring dusky pink light.

The demon dragon princess narrowed her draconic eyes and muttered, “The divine power of the Goddess of Temptation? But this dark and fallen aura… what is it?”

Whoosh!

Arrows of pink, wreathed in demonic fire, shot toward the demon dragon princess in endless waves like a raging tide.

She opened her small mouth and exhaled scorching dragonfire, intending to burn the arrows away.

However, the arrows pierced through the dragonfire and surged toward her from all directions.

“What?!”

Her eyes widened. She swung her claws to smash the incoming arrows, yet after one arrow came another dozen in rapid succession. The rain of arrows was unending, the fallen demonic flames clinging to her body and causing bone-deep pain.

“Tch… what kind of power is this? It’s even more disgusting than the abyssal power on me!”

The demon dragon princess took a deep breath, swelling her belly, then exhaled a gale from her mouth that forcibly blew out the surrounding demonic flames.

“Afraid?”

A taunting voice came from above her head. Bai Yue Ling had flown into the air on beating wings, pink longbow in hand, once again unleashing a barrage-like rain of arrows!

Just as the demon dragon princess tried to dodge, her ankle was suddenly seized tightly by another hand.

Looking down, she saw that Ying Ye had somehow slipped into the shadows. Her whole body was wrapped in blazing demonic flames, and the black blade in her hand thrust fiercely toward the demon dragon princess’s instep—

“ROAR!!!”

Suddenly, the demon dragon princess let out a heaven-shaking roar. The violent shockwave caused Bai Yue Ling and Ying Ye to reel mentally, their movements slowing.

Ying Ye snapped back to her senses and drove the blade tip into the demon dragon princess’s instep with all her strength. At the same time, a tremendous force struck from behind her head—the thick dragon tail lashed hard into her back, sending her flying instantly, vanishing into her own ink-dark shadow.

Even so, Ying Ye had stalled the demon dragon princess. Arrows struck into her back one after another, and the intense aura of temptation threw her consciousness into chaos.

“Haaah—!!! Such annoying prey. It seems you suddenly became very strong,” the demon dragon princess growled. “The divine power of the Goddess of Temptation is one thing—but what is this dark and fallen aura?”

Bai Yue Ling beat her wings and landed, embracing Ying Ye as she emerged from the shadows, proudly lifting her chest. “Of course—it’s the crystallization of our love!”

“That’s right.” Ying Ye hugged Bai Yue Ling tightly and sneered. “Someone who only knows how to eat could never understand.”

“Hah… wearing such shameless clothes for the enemy to see, and you still dare talk about pure love…”

The demon dragon princess opened her jaws wide again, a terrifying laser condensing in her mouth. “I’m too lazy to play with you anymore. I’ll just blast half your bodies away and then eat you clean!”

Sensing the surging magical power gathering without end, Bai Yue Ling was about to beat her wings to evade, but Ying Ye raised a hand to stop her.

“Xiao Bai, get behind me!”

“Huh?”

Bai Yue Ling looked at Ying Ye in surprise. “You… can you do it?”

“Trust me.” Ying Ye sheathed her blade and showed a confident smile. “As long as Xiao Bai is behind me, no matter the enemy, I can cut them down for you!”

The laser in the demon dragon princess’s mouth gathered continuously, erupting with unimaginable blinding brilliance. In that instant, even the distant sunset seemed to dim.

Boom—!

A white-hot beam burst forth, devouring everything in its path as it sped toward the two.

Almost the instant before the laser erupted, Ying Ye had already drawn her black blade and slashed forward at extreme speed—

“Shadow Blade: Iaido.”

Clang!

The short blade rang. A streak of black light flashed, and the sharp blade arc split the surging laser head-on. The white column of light parted like cleaved water, roaring past on either side of her body.

Her ninja skirt fluttered in the wind. Standing behind Ying Ye, Bai Yue Ling stared at her back in shock, her heartbeat unknowingly quickening.

‘I haven’t felt this kind of being protected by an older sister in a long time.’

‘No wonder Ying Ye’s combat ranking is one place higher than mine. She’s really become much stronger.’

As the blazing laser gradually dissipated, the demon dragon princess dropped to her knees, panting, her face full of shock and unwillingness.

“How is that possible? My proud laser… actually… actually cut apart so easily by a mere human…”

“Damn… if I still had my former power, trash humans like you would have been killed by me countless times already…”

She clutched her continuously bleeding wounds in pain, pounding the ground with her fist.

…

Just as she was vexed, suddenly an extremely enticing aroma of roasted meat wafted over, stimulating every nerve in her body and making her mouth instinctively secrete clear saliva.

It was the food she had sought for one thousand years—the thing that could finally satisfy her hunger.

“Want to eat?”

Bai Yue Ling took out the large chunk of roasted meat she had gotten earlier from Lie Lie and held it before the demon dragon princess, asking with a teasing smile:

“If you want to eat, then you have to join my White Night Castle.”
