"What did you say?"
"What did you just say?"
A little Celestial Immortal giving them a sense of superiority actually dared to jump?
"We don't have a chance to fight you?"
"Try saying that again!"
Facing the fierce group of demons, Cai Ying nearly burst into tears.
"I, I..."
She wanted to retreat but had nowhere to go.
"What are you?"
"Are you looking for death?"
The surrounding Profound Immortals looked unfriendly.
"What to do, what to do?"
Cai Ying could only cry for help to the Demon Lord within the sword scabbard.
Brother Cheng inside did not disappoint her, he was with her this time.
"Just say, oh sorry, I just said it wrong..."
Before he finished speaking, Cai Ying instantly repeated it.
She learned these conciliatory apology lines very quickly, without any pause.
"Ah, sorry, I just said it wrong..."
Brother Cheng continued: "Do you little fish and shrimps dare to be compared with me?"
Cai Ying didn't have time to think, she kept repeating: "You little fish and shrimps dare to be compared with me, boo hoo... wah!"
Using the most timid tone to say the harshest words, the Little Sparrow Demon burst into tears.
That's not fair!
Demon Lord, you're trapping me!
"What?"
The surrounding Demon Cultivators immediately got enraged.
As geniuses in their Sect Clan, they've never been looked down upon or insulted like this in their lives.
Suddenly, they all flew into a rage.
"How outrageous!"
"You really dare?"
"Kill that scum!"
"Killing isn't allowed, but beating should be fine, right?"
"Beat this reckless Celestial Immortal!"
As the Demon Cultivators around drew their swords, Brother Cheng was about to act when a loud shout suddenly came from the sky.
"Stop!"
Immediately afterward, two Demon Kings descended from the sky.
"Everyone step back!"
The crowd exclaimed.
"Ah, it's Cold Demon King Que, and Liu Gu Demon King!"
"Greetings to the Demon King!"
"Salutations, Demon King Senior!"
Not only those surrounding Cai Ying but even other Demon Cultivators in the distance quickly bowed in salute.
To Brother Cheng, Demon Kings were nothing special.
But in the eyes of most cultivators, Demon Kings were rare, high-ranking figures unattainable in thousands of years.
The thousands of Profound Immortals present were the top talents of their sects, but in the end, having two or three become Demon Kings was quite good.
However, these two Demon Kings were not inclined to compromise.
Both swung their robes simultaneously.
Those Profound Immortals surrounding Cai Ying were hit heavily.
They spat blood, rolled several times on the ground, almost unable to get up.
"Spare us, Demon King!"
"Spare us, Senior!"
Even without knowing why they were punished so severely, these Profound Immortals dared not question the high and mighty Demon Kings, only to keep kowtowing, pleading for mercy.
Killing them was easier than crushing ants, requiring no reason at all.
"Anyone else want to attack her?"
Cold Demon King Que glared at everyone, his frosty expression scaring them into silence.
"I warn you all, before the Evangelical Assembly, whoever touches Cai Ying will be shown no mercy and be torn to pieces!"
No joking, she was Lie Yu Quasi-Emperor's symbol.
Before the Evangelical Assembly, she mustn't encounter any setbacks.
"Even if it's just a single hair, be ready to die!"
The entire crowd fell silent.
No one dared to speak, but internally, they felt immensely shocked.
Though Cai Ying's name was already known widely outside, they had been on the Flying Ship and didn't know about the situation outside.
Thus, their hearts were filled with strong confusion now.
This was too exaggerated, right?
Initially, they thought the two Demon Kings were only here to maintain order.
But now it seemed they were simply backing this Little Celestial Immortal.
Didn't you hear them call her by name just like that?
What's the story behind this Celestial Immortal?
To be honest, even Brother Cheng was secretly puzzled.
He had to resort to using the Mind Reading Technique to understand the reason.
Turns out, before the competition even started, this Little Sparrow Demon became a little star?
Haha, no surprise she's Brother Cheng's chosen one.
He felt quite proud.
After shocking the surrounding crowd, Cold Demon King Que and Liu Gu Demon King softened their expressions and looked at Cai Ying.
"You can register with peace of mind."
"Rest assured, nothing will happen to you before the Assembly starts!"
After the Assembly begins, how you die is not our concern.
After all, our mission is merely to attract as many registrants as possible.
"Mm, thank you, Senior!"
Cai Ying was pleasantly surprised, quickly expressing her gratitude.
Cold Demon King Que secretly shook his head, such a naive little fool!
Marching toward her demise, yet completely unaware.
After Cold Demon King Que and Liu Gu Demon King left, those surrounding Profound Immortals dared not provoke Cai Ying anymore.
Even within a yard's radius, no one dared to get close.
But not daring to touch her didn't mean they couldn't discuss in private.
Soon, whispers spread rapidly.
"She's a connection!"
"Absolutely a connection, otherwise how would a Celestial Immortal have the qualifications to register?"
"Could she be an illegitimate daughter of a Demon King?"
"Very likely!"
'Connections' are never welcomed anywhere; many, although not daring to offend directly, couldn't stop the disdainful secret gossip.
"The problem is, throwing her into the Evangelical Assembly now pushes her into the fire pit!"
"Right, if she's truly an illegitimate daughter, there's no reason to send her to her death, right?"
"But she indeed enjoys special treatment, who has the Demon King's protection?"
"Once at the Evangelical Assembly, she has no special privileges."
"When facing Profound Immortals from other battle zones, who cares which Demon King's illegitimate daughter you are?"
"Exactly, let's see how she dies!"
Cai Ying hadn't noticed these discussions yet, but Brother Cheng heard them crystal clear.
"Say it aloud to the crowd, huh! You bunch of useless trash!"
"Ah? Isn't that inappropriate?"
The Little Sparrow Demon was extremely stressed.
Her idol was perfect except when it came to learning provocative sayings, which were too aggressive.
Since arriving in the Demon Realm, none of the people she encountered were within her capability to handle.
Every time she threatened, she lacked any confidence, her poor heart couldn't bear it!
Why not just quietly stay unnoticed and invisible?
"You've already been insulted, what's inappropriate? Hurry, this is an order from the Grand Demon Palace!"
The Grand Demon Palace order was effective; the Little Sparrow Demon, no matter how unwilling, could only comply.
So she cleared her throat and reluctantly muttered softly after attracting attention.
"Huh, a bunch of useless trash."
Though neither the tone nor look was quite right, it didn't meet Brother Cheng's standards, but the effect was still remarkably noticeable.
All nearby Demon Cultivators' anger skyrocketed immediately.
Many wished they could tear this Little Celestial Immortal apart on the spot.
Others gnashed their teeth, clenching their fists tightly, making cracking sounds.
