Lu Jiu Que was totally oblivious to the subtle changes in the Great Demon King. At that moment, she was gritting her teeth and forcefully shaking her fists in the direction he had disappeared in.

 “What a scumbag! Those b*stard Devil Kings really stink! Detestable, loathsome!

 “Darn, no matter how good-looking he is, he’s still a scumbag in an angel’s robe!”

 …

 After a ruthless bout of cursing and lashing out, Lu Jiu Que finally felt relieved of the fury within her.

 Right at that moment, her sharp ears heard the hurried sound of something slicing through the air. It had an imposing manner and was descending with a forceful momentum!

 It had arrived!

 Lu Jiu Que hurriedly adjusted her expression. Within the next instant, she was sprawled on the ground and yelling at the top of her lungs.

 “Sister Shao! If you want to hurt Young Master Li, it’ll be over my dead body!

 “Sister Shao! Please get yourself together! This is Young Master Li, and I am Lu Jiu Que! Sister Shao… Quick, you have to stop!

 “Help! Help, ahh…. Sister Shao, you have to stop. You’ll regret this…

 “Young Master Li, I will protect you!”

 …

 How could that only be described as forlorn and helpless? It was simply heartbreaking!

 When the members of the Heavenly Divination Sect rushed over like a gust of wind, the sight that greeted them was that of Shao Qingrou holding up a weapon. She was just about to give Li Ronggui, who had fallen into a comatose state, one final blow.

 And in front of Li Ronggui, a small, frail figure was protecting him fearlessly.

 At this moment, that person’s body was covered in blood, and her face was smeared with dirt. Both of her bright, sparkling eyes were filled with fear, but even so, she didn’t take a single step back. This was in stark contrast to Shao Qingrou, who was right across from her. The latter’s face was wearing a wildly arrogant smirk instead.

 The image of these three people shocked every single person who had rushed over.

 It was truly just like the old slave had said! Shao Qingrou was going crazy again!

 With eyes as fierce as a tiger’s, the middle-aged man who was leading the group shouted out loud, “Shao Qingrou! Don’t you dare!”

 In order to save Li Ronggui, he readied the long sword that he was holding in his hands without another word.

 The spiritual tool came out of its sheath like a silver serpent and made a metallic clang. It pointed straight at the iron bar in Shao Qingrou’s hand.

 Before the man could attack, Lu Jiu Que had already made her move.

 She tossed the stone that she’d had prepared ahead of time and accurately hit Shao Qingrou’s pressure points.

 As soon as her acupoints were relieved, Shao Qingrou immediately fell to the ground in her entirety.

 In the eyes of these outsiders, it was Shao Qingrou who wanted to kill Li Rongui at any cost, even if she had to risk losing her life. This was a great shock to everyone!

 The middle-aged man saw the situation, and his lordly sword grew fiercer. He didn’t spare even a tad of consideration for Shao Qingrou.

 ‘She still dares to kill my son even though I’ve arrived. It’s none of my concern whether you have truly gone mad or not, Shao Qingrou—it’s an eye for an eye!’

 The glinting silver metal viciously slashed and penetrated Shao Qingrou from the side, neatly chopping off Shao Qingrou’s arm.

 “Ahhh…!”

 Shao Qingrou, who had just regained freedom of her limbs, was in such great pain that her face was distorted. Her long, piercing cry was exceptionally miserable and shrill, and she almost fainted from the pain.

 Lu Jiu Que strode forward with great vigor and firmly held Shao Qingrou in her arms. Once again, she sealed an acupoint that caused Shao Qingrou to bleed all over her body.

 From everyone else’s point of view, Lu Jiu Que was simply a pitiful creature that had been fished out of a pool of blood.

 At this moment, Shao Qingrou, who was being held in Lu Jiu Que’s arms, really wished she could sink her teeth into the latter’s throat!

 She was absolutely certain that Lu Jiu Que knew witchcraft and was capable of executing control over others’ actions!

 Just when Shao Qingrou was feeling anxious and worried, Lu Jiu Que’s words seemed to hit her over the head with a hard blow, knocking her into a dizzy spell.

 She heard Lu Jiu Que anxiously say, “Senior… Please don’t kill her! Sister Shao is also unable to control herself… She didn’t want to hurt Young Master Li either…

 1“Wahhh… Senior… Sister Shao used to take such good care of me. In exchange for how I’ve done my best to save Young Master Li, please spare Sister Shao’s life…”
