Despite her dire circumstances, Cornelia showed no expression of despair. A grim smile was plastered on her beautiful face. He then stared at the cloaked individuals while trying to identify them.
“It looks like two noble families really want to kill me!” He muttered without hiding his disgust towards them.
“Do you really think that I won't realize that you're trying to buy time? Your Majesty, you underestimate us too much.” The person who seemed to be the leader of these assassins ridiculed him.
Hearing this, Cornelia's heart sank. He then activated his illusory arts with his maximum strength, while also covering his body with true essence and anma. After observing this cloaked figure, he was able to tell that they were all at least experts of the Nascent God Realm! As for their leader, he could not sense his cultivation level, but he should be in the Origin God Realm!
“Kill him! Don't underestimate him just because he's hurt! Balmond may have given him some defensive items!” The leader shouted with a cold look.
“Kill!”
“Mati!”
Cornelia could only stare helplessly at the dozens of people running towards her. Even so, he still did his best to fend off their attacks.
More wounds covered his body as the battle continued.
This time, the leader could no longer hold back his impatience.
“A bunch of useless garbage! You guys can't even handle a little girl getting hurt!” He pouted as he pounced towards the weak Cornelia.
Suddenly, the assassin leader's eyes shriveled as he raised his dagger.
Clangs!
He was thrown backwards a few meters before he managed to stabilize himself in midair. He then looked at the white-haired little human girl who launched a sneak attack at him. When he sensed the cultivation level of the little girl, the leader of the assassins was stunned.
The Origin God Realm!
The other assassins were also shocked when they saw the sudden turn of events. They could not believe that a little girl had actually managed to push back their leader with a single move!
Cornelia looked at the white-haired little girl in surprise. Wasn't this the little boy who was always in Jiu Shen's arms? He was actually an expert in the Origin God Realm!
Besides being shocked, the succubus also felt relief in his heart upon seeing the appearance of the little girl. This time, he might be saved!
Ice turned her gaze to the injured Cornelia and handed her a bottle of medicine.
“You stay there obediently and wait for me.” His funny voice radiated to the succubus ears like a soothing melody.
“Why would a beast like you involve yourself in the internal affairs of the Great Demon Kingdom?! You may be strong, but there are more than a dozen of us here! You think you can stop us by yourself?” The leader of the assassins glared at Ice with a dejected look. He sensed that this little girl was a ferocious beast based on her true essence structure.
Ice stood in front of Cornelia and smiled at the assassins, showing them two rows of white teeth of her pearl. “Even if I am alone, I can still defeat useless trash like you! But this time I didn't come alone. I brought some helpers! Hehe!”
Hearing this, the assassins became alarmed and they could not help but look around the forest. That was when they saw two powerful auras.
Not long after, two figures slowly appeared before them.
One of them was an elegant woman with long purple hair. The other was a man with the same hair color. They are Long Meili and Aren! Both of them were also in the Origin God Realm!
The assassins became nervous when they found a figure floating by. It was especially true for their leader as he could feel the cultivation base of these two people. Their strength is as strong as him!
Cornelia's eyes sparkled as she looked at the two figures. He recognized them because he had seen them several times in the lotus building. They are Jiu Shen's subordinates!
‘It seems the man ordered them to protect me in secret while my father was still away.’ He muttered in a grateful heart.
“What's up? Are you nervous now, demon? Hehe!” Ice smiled mockingly at the murderous leader.
The leader of the assassins gritted his teeth and immediately let go of his anma while yelling at his subordinates. “Flee in a different direction! If you survive, report the situation to the Demon Emperor!”
The assassins immediately ran in different directions after hearing their leader's orders. They were assassins trained by two noble families for decades and they were many times stronger than most experts of the Nascent God Realm. They activated their escape art to escape at their fastest speed!
Seeing this, Long Meili raised his hand and released an invisible and boundless spiritual power that covered the entire forest. The escaping assassins immediately felt a sense of abnormality and as they tried to leave the forest, they soon realized that there was an invisible force trapping them!
“Good work, Sister Meili!” Ice giggled as he grinned broadly towards Long Meili.
The dragon girl shook her head with a smile before she turned her head towards Aren. “You can take care of the rest.”
Aren nodded his head towards her with a confident look. He then disappeared to hunt down the assassins one by one!
“Sweetest! Now, I won't have a chance to clench my fists! I shouldn't have told you to come with me.” Ice muttered with regret while punching the air with his little fist.
“You will have every chance in the future, Little Sister Ice ..” Long Meili rubbed her head gently with a smile.
Cornelia stared speechlessly at the two figures floating above the clouds. The powerful assassin immediately fled when they realized that they were unable to defeat the three. They're too strong!
It was destined to be a bloody night for those assassins….
