A dark mass of the Demon Army slowly emerged from the crack.
Li Xiaonan's pupils constricted sharply as he murmured, "It's her!"
"Attack!" Lingyun commanded with a single hand gesture, and all the Divine Dragon Cannons aimed at the entrance fired simultaneously, sending silver-white beams of light toward the demon horde.
"Don't!" Li Xiaonan instinctively reached out to grab Lingyun, but it was too late.
Lingyun frowned and asked, "Li Xiao Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Li Xiaonan's face turned awkward, his facial muscles twitching slightly as he replied, "It's… nothing… I'm just worried that the crack will widen even more..."
"Don't worry! The entrance to the space won't tear open so easily. By the way, little brother, do you see who is leading this demon charge?" Lingyun patted him on the shoulder and laughed at the demons that were immediately falling apart before them.
"It’s..." He was about to answer when a crisp female voice interrupted him.
"Despicable Cultivators! My demon kin will not be defeated by a few cannons! Brothers of the demon race, these Cultivators are nothing but great supplements! The sunlight and land we long for are right here—charge!" Fei Ji, clad in iron armor and wielding a war spear while riding a Demon Bull, declared.
The demons quickly regrouped and charged once more at the Cultivators.
Faced with the white projectiles, they showed no fear.
Lingyun's expression turned cold as he said, "Capture the leader first! We need to take down that woman!"
Li Xiaonan unconsciously grabbed him again and insisted, "Ling Brother, let me handle this! Leave it to me!"
"Alright! Li Xiao Brother will represent our Cultivation world in this first battle!" Lingyun declared boldly.
Li Xiaonan lowered his head, hiding the bitter expression on his face from everyone.
Duan Yu added from the side, "Xiao Nan, this battle must be a victory, no room for defeat!"
Li Xiaonan nodded gloomily, holding the Carefree Fan as he soared into the sky. With a flick of the fan, he unleashed a sweeping strike that shattered a row of demons.
A pair of cold silver eyes quickly noticed something unusual in front of the army, flashing with a hint of pain.
With an iron face, Fei Ji said coldly, "Who goes there?"
Li Xiaonan suddenly looked up and shouted, "Li Xiaonan from the Outer Academy of the Cultivation world is here!"
"Hmph!" Fei Ji stood atop the Demon Bull beneath her, unfurling nine pairs of Flesh Wings from her back as she hovered in the air.
Li Xiaonan followed her into the sky.
In an instant, they were out of earshot from the others.
Li Xiaonan forced a smile and said, "Why is it you? Have you forgotten what I told you?"
Fei Ji sneered, "Oh? Who are you to me? Why should I listen to you or remember your words? Is there really no one left in your Cultivation world that you need this scoundrel to step up?"
"Fei'er, don't act on impulse. If I don't step in, someone even more powerful will. Your situation won't be any better then. You should... you should just go back to the Demon Realm!" Li Xiaonan clenched his fists and finally let out the words he had been holding back.
"Go back? In your dreams!" Fei Ji brandished her war spear and lunged fiercely at Li Xiaonan.
The latter sidestepped, avoiding the attack, and shook his head with a bitter smile. "Eighteen Wings is indeed very strong. Fei'er, you still have time to turn back!"
On the cold iron surface, what was even colder were Fei Ji's silver eyes, filled with immense hatred that sent chills down one's spine just by looking at them.
"Idiot! Shut up! Fei'er is not someone you can call!" The battle spear changed direction and lunged toward Li Xiaonan.
As the representatives of both the human and demon factions clashed, everyone below naturally listened in, their movements synchronized as they looked up at the two small figures in the sky.
Yun Moyu, carrying the Divine Dragon Cannon, ran over to Ling Kui and said, "Ling Kui Sister, why hasn’t Xiao Nan made a move yet?"
Ling Kui shook her head, quietly gazing at the sky, her eyes closely following Li Xiaonan.
Yun Moyu dropped the cannon and said irritably, "I bet the other side must be a girl!"
"Mo Yu, don’t say nonsense. How could Xiao Nan have feelings for a demon?" Li Yanrong also approached.
"Didn’t you notice he’s different this time? He spaces out from time to time. Lulu, you’re best at Mental Power; do you think Xiao Nan has a woman outside?" Yun Moyu pouted at Luna beside her.
One had to admit her intuition was quite accurate.
Luna was taken aback. "Me? I don’t know. I can sense that the demon leader really hates Xiao Nan."
"Did you see that?" Yun Moyu raised an eyebrow and sneered.
"Sister Mo Yu, what did you see?" Li Baobao also came over, squinting as she tried to look into the sky.
Yun Moyu exclaimed angrily, "You fool! Without love, how can there be hate?!"
"I agree with that statement," Yuan Xian'er suddenly interjected, breaking her silence.
As the girls were discussing the two in the air, Li Xiaonan finally made his move!
With a swift motion, Carefree Fan struck from behind, aiming a palm strike at Fei Ji's face.
Fei Ji turned her head to the side, her cold mask falling away to reveal her enchanting profile.
Her slightly translucent wheat-colored skin looked even more beautiful beneath her silver hair.
She flicked her hair back and glared coldly at Li Xiaonan.
"You! Your face!" Li Xiaonan exclaimed in shock as he gazed at her features.
Fei Ji was no longer the charming Fei Ji of the past; an ugly scar marred her once stunning face, stretching from her left eyebrow to the corner of her mouth.
With a cold smile, she touched the cheek hidden beneath her hair and said, "This is the vow I made before them. If I cannot kill you, then I will not return to the Demon Realm!"
"Why go through all this?" Li Xiaonan felt that his shock could no longer be described; it was beyond mere astonishment!
In the words of Aunt Qiong Yao, it was shocking! So shocking!
"You betrayed me! Today, either you die or I live!" Fei Ji's expression turned icy, and the ugly scar on her face twitched slightly like a worm.
There were flaws everywhere...
With a light sigh, Li Xiaonan shifted his feet slightly as Swift Steps activated. The Red Silk Hand restrained Fei Ji's Demon Infant, binding her body with the authentic Binding Immortal Rope he had obtained from Zhao Hai.
"You! You bastard! You're nothing but a cold-blooded animal!"
Fei Ji was utterly despondent, tears welling in her eyes as she cursed and struck at Li Xiaonan with futile punches and kicks, all of which were merely for show.
Which bastard told me that for a man, the most precious thing is the beauty of the woman he loves?
When he saw my ruined face, there was pain and guilt in his eyes. At that moment, I thought he loved me, and I saw my chance to strike back.
I wouldn't kill him, but I would eliminate every woman around him. I wanted him to live in agony for the rest of his life!
Yet the gap between reality and ideals is always so vast...
But I never expected this man to be so cold-blooded, to subdue me so quickly...
I truly am the biggest fool of the demon clan! It turns out he doesn't love me; I fell for him, which is why I was full of flaws. I didn't even use my Eighteen Wings cultivation before being defeated by him.
Well... I'm so tired... To die at his hands is better than dying at someone else's...
It's just that, Father, I'm sorry. I can't fulfill your wishes anymore; in this lifetime, I'm destined to be disconnected from the cultivation world...
She slowly closed her eyes, allowing Li Xiaonan to hold her.
He sighed and said softly, "I can't die; I don't want you to die either!"
Fei Ji suddenly opened her eyes wide, but at that moment, Li Xiaonan's expression and his gentle tone did not match at all.
His eyes were filled with pride, and when he looked at her, there was a hint of mockery.
He laughed as he flew over to Lingyun and said, "Ling Brother, I haven't embarrassed the Cultivation world, have I?"
"Good lad, impressive! That Witch has so many wings behind her; it seems her cultivation is at least comparable to the Great Ascension stage. Your cultivation is truly unfathomable."
Even with Li Xiaonan's thick skin, he felt a bit embarrassed by Lingyun's praise. If it came down to a serious one-on-one fight, he might only be able to tie with Fei Ji; to win against her, he would need to recall all his avatars.
Clearing his throat, he pressed on Fei Ji, who was still frozen in place, and said, "Your lord has already been captured by us. I advise you to surrender quickly!"
A brief silence followed until someone suddenly shouted, "Kill them!"
The dark Demon Army charged at everyone once again, but unfortunately, there was no strategy behind their attack.
This actually worked in Li Xiaonan's favor. He sneered and shouted, "Seven-Level Pagoda! Go!"
Without hesitation, he continued to expand the number of Buddha's Envoys. It seemed that even if they couldn't gather one hundred eighty million, at least eighty million would be possible!
Fei Ji trembled in his embrace, filled with hatred. Blood tears streamed down her face and fell onto her ugly scar.
Li Xiaonan wrapped his arms around her, pressing her head against his chest. He turned to Lingyun and said, "Big Brother, this Witch..."
"Should be made an example of!"
Li Xiaonan's mouth twitched as he tightened his grip on Fei Ji. He steadied himself and said, "Big Brother, after all, she is also the Southern Nation Leader of the Demon Clan. I'm worried that killing her will only incite their fighting spirit even more!"
Lingyun frowned slightly and nodded. "Li Xiao Brother has a point. How about this... Since it was you who captured her, let’s leave her fate in your hands. I believe others won't have any objections."
Li Xiaonan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and smiled. "Then I'll take care of this Witch first! After that, I'll join everyone in wreaking havoc!"
"Ha ha! Great!" Lingyun happily patted his shoulder and rushed into the battle circle. At that moment, the Divine Dragon Cannon was no longer of any use.
The Cultivators formed their own groups to encircle the rampaging demons.
Relying on their sheer numbers, some Cultivators were even injured, but overall there were no significant casualties; the advantage still lay with the humans.
Li Xiaonan carried Fei Ji and flew towards the bamboo house, finding an empty room where he gently laid her down. "You'll have to bear with staying here for a while."
"Hmph! I don't need your feigned sympathy!" She turned her head away in anger, the scar fully visible to Li Xiaonan.
He trembled as he reached out, lightly touching the raised scar.
Fei Ji seemed to be electrified, screaming, "Get lost! Just get away from me!"
"Alright! Alright, I'll go. Don't be angry..." Li Xiaonan reluctantly withdrew his hand and exited the room, glancing back at Fei Ji one last time.
"Sisters, see? I told you I was right!" Yun Moyu stood at the door with her hands on her hips, coldly observing.
Li Xiaonan had three black lines above his head and awkwardly said, "Why are all of you here... There are so many demons outside; why aren't you helping..."
