Chapter 343: Chapter 347: Becoming a Demon (9)

Su Li pouted, visibly upset.

"You guys came knocking on my door, and now you’re saying I’m the bully? Isn’t that the pot calling the kettle black?"

Master Cao and Xu Shi were also bewildered, realizing something was amiss.

Why was Black Lady not playing by the rules?

Even in battles between enemy armies, they would normally announce themselves and their intentions first.

Why had she just attacked without saying a word?

Su Li admitted she misspoke, recalling she had indeed given prior notice that she would come to retrieve it herself.

Su Li shook the Mustard Bag in her hand, waving off the Divine Sense of its original owner.

Noticing that their own storage bags had lost connection, everyone present scowled.

Su Li, however, did not care about others’ opinions; excited, she opened one bag after another to take a look.

She didn’t even spare a glance at the belongings of the little Taoists from Ziwei Temple, tossing them behind her.

Soon after, a little white rabbit jumped out from the bushes and hopped away with a bag in its mouth.

It seemed the small animals, initially very scared, mustered courage seeing their friend benefit, and a few more peeked out from behind Su Li.

Sitting human-like and wide-eyed behind Su Li, the small animals watched her toss away the belongings of the little Taoists from Ziwei Temple.

"Chirp chirp," a little squirrel snatched one and gleefully made a gesture at Su Li.

The little Taoists only had some Elixir Pills and spiritual plants on them—nothing of value.

While Su Li was unimpressed, these were treasures for the undeveloped little demons.

This time, Yun Lingzi had brought elite disciples from Ziwei Temple, and they carried precious items bestowed by their elders.

Now, these items had all fallen into the hands of demons. Who wouldn’t Yun Lingzi be furious?

After disposing of the little disciples’ Mustard Bags, all that remained in Su Li’s hand were three bags.

They belonged to the only three still standing and facing her: Yun Lingzi, Master Cao, and Xu Shi.

"Oh, what a nice find," Su Li exclaimed, spotting a glowingly luminescent pearl in her hand—the Cloud Beast Inner Core.

Cloud Beasts were of the demon beast clan, known for their fierce and violent nature, but their inner cores were very mild and could help in the rapid absorption of Spiritual Energy.

Xu Shi had exhausted great effort and several powerful Cultivation Techniques in the Desert Sea to slay a Cloud Beast and secure its inner core.

He had spent years recovering his strength to get his realm back to where it had been.

He had been just about to turn this inner core into Elixir Pills. But before he could, Black Lady had snatched it.

Even Yun Lingzi and Master Cao were surprised, unaware that Xu Shi possessed such a treasure.

Xu Shi couldn’t concern himself with what his companions thought; he urgently interjected, "Hold on, Black Lady! Your actions are no different from that of a bandit. Are you trying to provoke a war between humans and demons?"

Xu Shi escalated the issue to a conflict between the two races.

Cloud Beasts were rare; the last one he had seen was probably the last in the Lower Realm. If he could turn it into Elixir Pills and consume it, he was certain it would allow him to break through the plateau in his realm he’d been stuck at for so long.

Su Li retorted, "Isn’t this your gift to me?"

Xu Shi responded, "No."

Su Li said cheerily, "Thank you so much for being so courteous. Let me treat you to some tea later, I’ll personally make some Cloud Mist Tea...."

Deciding unilaterally, Su Li flicked her wrist, and the pearly white inner core vanished, reappearing in the next second right in front of Xiao Bai.

"Little rabbit, quickly thank the master."

The inner core of a demon beast is useful to human Cultivators and also beneficial to demons.

Xiao Bai foolishly and sincerely thanked Xu Shi.

Su Li quickly opened the other two bags.

A purple stone and a clump of red hair appeared in Su Li’s hands.

"Wow, quite a few good items here, you all are really too polite, I feel embarrassed," Su Li covered her mouth and said with a squinted smile to Yun Lingzi and Master Cao.

Though she claimed to be embarrassed, her actions showed no such thing.

Mao Mao and Caiye also received gifts from Yun Lingzi and Master Cao.

These items were beneficial to cultivation, naturally hard to come by, even described as treasured possessions.

What infuriated the three Daoists even more was that their super precious items, in the eyes of Black Lady, seemed disdainful, casually tossing them to the three little demons that appeared behind.

It was like trampling on their dignity.

"Stop wasting words with her, let’s go together and take her down."

The rosary of Yun Lingzi, the wine bottle of Master Cao, and the broadsword of Xu Shi appeared at the same time, targeting Su Li’s vital spot. With a single strike, she would be overwhelmed by their combined force using their Magic Artifacts.

Yun Lingzi had already anticipated the scene that would follow.

Previously, he thought about letting Black Lady suffer less torment and leave early.

Now, well...

Yun Lingzi’s smile had barely formed when he saw Black Lady across from him calmly raise her slender hand, and with a swipe of her finger,

the Magic Artifacts launched at them rebounded at several times their initial speed.

A spurt of heart blood gushed out, and the three who were just standing were now fallen and incapacitated.

Master Cao, enduring the pain in his heart and lungs, roared, "You are not from the Great Demon Realm..."

Their combined strike was unexpectedly ineffective against her casual counter.

Xu Shi was already frightened and thought of retreating.

He swallowed the blood in his mouth, tore a fleeing talisman, and disappeared on the spot.

"Black Lady, I hold no grudges against you, and was only invited by Yun Lingzi. I don’t need the Cloud Beast Inner Core. Consider it compensation for my ignorance, and I hope you won’t hold this against me."

Yun Lingzi spat out a mouthful of bloody pus on the ground, and his previously straight spine curved slightly.

Master Cao rolled his eyes and dragged his seriously injured body a few steps backward.

"Black Lady, sorry for the disturbance, I’ll take my leave now."

He initially agreed to Yun Lingzi’s suggestion to come and surround Black Lady just for the benefits, but unexpectedly, he failed to secure any benefits and even lost his own treasures.

Master Cao regretted it deeply.

Those years of collected treasures, he no longer hoped to get them back, only hoped to preserve his life.

Master Cao tentatively moved a few steps backward, seeing Su Li just smile without stopping him, he quickly left as his feet sprang to life.

To Su Li, Master Cao and Xu Shi were just two annoying mosquitoes. Since they had fled, she was not keen on wasting energy to kill them.

Yun Lingzi felt bitter inside, who kept insisting that Black Lady was from the Great Demon Realm?

It had led them to this disaster...

He harbored intense resentment towards Master Cao and Xu Shi.

He also wanted to flee, but behind him was a group of Ziwei Temple’s disciples.

Seeing Black Lady’s gaze on him, Yun Lingzi felt bitter inside and, with an embarrassed expression, said, "Black Lady, your magnanimity is great, please overlook our rudeness."
