Chapter 72: Chapter 71 Demon Possession
"Don’t even think about it!" the Dark Night Demon Queen said. From her tone, there was absolutely no room for negotiation.
"Killing
is useless," Ye Fan said miserably. "If you kill , you won’t be able to escape either. So, let’s just call it a draw! You go your way, and I’ll go mine!"
"A draw? Right now, I wish you were dead. I can escape even if you die!" the Dark Night Demon Queen cursed in fury.
Ye Fan was at a loss as Zhan Xiong closed in on him. Just as the Dark Night Demon Queen was about to make her move, Ye Fan’s eyes suddenly turned blood-red. At this last critical juncture, his power erupted.
"Demon Possession!" Zhan Xiong sensed sothing ominous. He hadn’t expected Ye Fan to be capable of Demon Possession. A possessed person was terrifying enough, let alone a King like Ye Fan. This was even more frightening.
The Dark Night Demon Queen was sent flying by his palm strike, coughing up blood profusely.
The possessed Ye Fan was terrifying, as he was unable to distinguish friend from foe. He was surrounded not only by Demonic Qi but also a horrifying, peerless killing intent. This killing intent plunged one into the despair of Hell’s deepest pits; it was an aura that promised death within ten paces, the mark of a man who beca a demon the mont he drew his sword.
"Quick, retreat!" Zhan Xiong yelled as he pulled Su Qingxue and Luo Yazhi away. Soon, only the Dark Night Demon Queen and Ye Fan remained. She charged at Ye Fan, intent on killing him. However, Ye Fan’s rampant killing intent made him so terrifyingly powerful that even she dared not confront him head-on. Now she finally understood why Ye Fan was the foremost of the four great Kings. His Demon Possession was simply too frightening.
With that, the Dark Night Demon Queen broke away from Ye Fan and vanished into the night.
Ye Fan’s complexion returned to normal as he knelt on the ground, panting heavily. Demon Possession was sothing he was unwilling to unleash, but at that mont, he truly had no other choice. With each outbreak, his control over it grew weaker. Sooner or later, the demon would completely take over his body, turning him into a rciless, unblinking killer.
"My young friend, you are in a terrible state!" Zhan Xiong said to him.
"Yes, this state is awful," Ye Fan replied imdiately. "I’m sorry you had to witness the last thing you wanted to see!"
"No matter. Focus on your recovery first! This woman has invaded the Divine Land multiple tis. This ti, I will have the entire city searched for her!" Zhan Xiong was furious. After all, he was the Alliance Hierarch of the Divine Continent Sword, and the Dark Night Demon Queen’s repeated incursions were a challenge to his authority. He had to resolve this matter.
Ye Fan was helped back by the two won.
「Outside Jiangning City.」
On a cruise ship, the Dark Night Demon Queen could no longer hold it in and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. Ye Fan’s palm strike had co so suddenly that she had been completely defenseless. She was seriously injured.
Staring in the direction of Jiangning City, she said coldly, "King of Heaven, do you think you can rest easy now? Rest assured, I won’t let you! I will make you repay everything you owe !"
SPIT!
She nearly fainted. She quickly went inside the cruise ship, preparing to enter seclusion to heal. Twice she had confronted Ye Fan, and twice she had failed. Needless to say, the Dark Night Demon Queen was infuriated. But destiny was not hers to command; no matter how enraged she was, her only choice was to retreat.
When Ye Fan woke up, he found Su Qingxue and Luo Yazhi caring for him by his bedside. The sight filled him with warmth; he felt like the happiest man in the world. The next mont, however, the expressions on both Su Qingxue and Luo Yazhi changed, becoming sothing that made him a little afraid, even terrified. Suddenly, he felt like the most awkward man in the world.
"Wh-what’s wrong?" Ye Fan asked weakly.
"Are you involved with that Dark Night Demon Queen?" Su Qingxue questioned him.
"How could I be? I don’t even know her!" Ye Fan said awkwardly.
However, Luo Yazhi chid in, "You must have known her in the past! Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so furious, only beating you without killing you. Don’t you think that’s a bit odd?"
Luo Yazhi’s words completely deflated Ye Fan’s confidence. During his ti dominating the South Arica Battlefield, he had slept with, if not a thousand won, then at least eight hundred. How could I possibly rember them all? I had always believed those were just flings, not to be taken seriously. Thinking about it now is enough to bring
to tears!
Of course, he couldn’t tell the two won about his romantic escapades on the South Arica Battlefield. If he revealed that now, he’d be deader than dead.
"I really can’t rember a woman like that," Ye Fan said. "Don’t overthink it. Maybe she just has it in for
and wanted to teach
a lesson!"
"By the way, how did you and she beco ’sisters’?" Ye Fan asked Luo Yazhi. Isn’t the Charming Fox Demoness part of Tianji Pavilion? How can she be connected to the Dark Night Church?
"I used to be part of the Dark Night Church," Luo Yazhi replied. "I only joined Tianji Pavilion to investigate my brother’s death!"
Seeing her distressed expression, Ye Fan decided not to press any further.
Just then, Su Qingxue had to leave for so other matter.
With just him and Luo Yazhi left, he said to her, "So, what do you plan to do next? Are you going to side with her again? You know, yesterday she used you to threaten . She clearly doesn’t see you as a sister!"
"Even if she doesn’t see
as a sister, I must see her as my older sister," Luo Yazhi said. "I owe her far too much, so I have to repay her! Don’t try to persuade . I would be willing, even if she were to kill !"
Her words left Ye Fan speechless. I really can’t figure out how won think.
He stood up, pulled Luo Yazhi into his arms, and said, "Fine. No matter what you do, I’ll support you, because you are my woman!"
But Luo Yazhi suddenly broke free. "Let this be the end of it," she said. "Just think of it as a beautiful mory."
"Goodbye!"
With that, Luo Yazhi turned and left on the spot.
"Hey, don’t go!"
Ye Fan was speechless. How could she just leave like that? Do I have no hold on her heart at all? From the looks of it, that seems to be the case. He felt a sense of loss but was helpless to do anything about it.
He thought back to last night’s Demon Possession with a shudder of fear. It was a major hidden danger but also a great asset. In his possessed state, none of the seven great Kings were his match; of that, he was confident. Yet, for so reason, even though the crisis was over, he felt dejected. It felt as if sothing was missing from his life, leaving him unable to lift his spirits.
「In the afternoon.」
Zhan Xiong called him. Ye Fan went to a teahouse to et him.
"Are you feeling any better?" Zhan Xiong asked.
"Much better," Ye Fan replied. "My recovery speed is very fast!"
"My friend, I’ve co to you about an urgent matter. Half a month ago, your King Hall suddenly ceased its collaboration with our Divine Land!"
"What?" Ye Fan’s expression imdiately turned cold.
As the forr Hall Master of King Hall, and given his identity as a Huaxia person, I was the one who established the collaboration with the Divine Land. That was also why Zhan Xiong, Alliance Hierarch of the Divine Continent Sword, had befriended . Now that King Hall has changed its stance and severed ties with the Divine Land, there must have been a major upheaval within!
