Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 738: Chapter 738: National Demon Sprite (29)

Xiao Yue encountered Xun Yin inside the Monster Tower.

It was something unexpected for Xiao Yue.

But this outcome left her pleasantly surprised.

Xiao Yue smiled and said, ”I know this way you’ll remember me, which is quite good. Back then you couldn’t even remember my name, but now you can call it out immediately, proving my plan worked, doesn’t it?”

Not only was Xiao Yue unafraid, she was actually quite happy.

Xun Yin’s eyes were dark and heavy as he looked at her.

”The era when demons ran rampant is long past, Xun Yin, you need me.”

Xiao Yue reached out her hand toward Xun Yin.

Xun Yin sneered, ”You schemed against me in the past, and now you think I would join you? Where does your confidence come from?”

”In this world, only I am worthy of you,” Xiao Yue said, full of confidence. ”Do you know what’s happening outside? Do you know what the remaining demons are like? Xun Yin, don’t hurry to reject me. You can come out with me first and then make your decision.”

The people she had sent before hadn’t come back.

She had intended to look for him after resolving the matter with the Monster Tower.

She hadn’t expected to encounter him here.

He was an unexpected delight.

Xun Yin looked at the hand floating in the air.

It wasn’t as good-looking as Xiao Yao’s.

Xun Yin reached out his hand, but suddenly another hand came between them, taking hold of his: ”What are you doing?”

The girl’s voice was cold as ice.

Xun Yin’s lips curved slightly, ”I was wondering if you would come out.”

Chuzheng pulled his hand back and scanned the person across from her.

Xiao Yue’s expression changed upon Chuzheng’s arrival.

Especially seeing Chuzheng holding Xun Yin’s hand, with Xun Yin looking indulgently at her, even reciprocating the grip.

When had he ever shown such an expression, such a gesture...

”Are you Xiao Yue?” The person Good Person Card had been obsessing over looked somewhat familiar.

Chuzheng did a search through the original host’s memories—Li Xiaoyu’s sister.

The original host had met her a few times before.

This Second Miss of the Li Family was always gentle and virtuous, a true lady of nobility.

There was no trace of Monster Qi on her.

From what Xun Yin said, his nemesis, Xiao Yue, was clearly a Demon Sprite.

How had she turned human now?

A reincarnated Demon Sprite?

Can Demon Sprites reincarnate?

With the presence of demons, reincarnation didn’t seem too far-fetched...

”Chuzheng.” Xiao Yue directly called her name, her eyes sharpening as they fixated on the interlocked hands of Chuzheng and Xun Yin.

”Do you know me?” In the memories of the original host, she had never spoken to this Second Miss.

Xiao Yue was momentarily taken aback, but then naturally said, ”You’ve stayed at my sister’s place, and I naturally know all who are close to her.”

Chuzheng replied with a cold face, ”I don’t think a young lady of privilege would pay attention to an insignificant person.”

”My sister valued you highly, how could you be insignificant,” Xiao Yue said, her tone not betraying any emotion. ”It seems my sister was not wrong about you; you are indeed different.”

The words ”indeed different” were bitten off with some emphasis.

Clearly, there was an underlying implication.

But Xiao Yue didn’t consider Chuzheng worth her attention: ”Xun Yin, you can consider coming with me.”

Xun Yin licked the corner of his lip, ”But I’d rather kill you.”

Xiao Yue’s expression stiffened for a moment, a hint of hurt flashing in her eyes.

Before she could say anything, the girl standing next to Xun Yin suddenly moved.

Xiao Yue reacted quickly, avoiding Chuzheng’s attack.

”Xiao Yao, you’re no match for me,” Xiao Yue warned Chuzheng. ”Don’t seek death.”

She didn’t care who appeared by Xun Yin’s side, but in the end, the one standing next to him could only be her.

”You’re right,” Chuzheng agreed with Xiao Yue’s words.

Xiao Yue: ”...”

”She’s right, yet you still attack!”

The more Xiao Yue crossed hands with Chuzheng, the more frightened she felt in her heart.

This seemingly unimpressive Xiao Yao turned out to be so difficult to deal with.

At first, Xiao Yue had no Monster Qi on her, but gradually, she began to leak it out.

That Monster Qi was almost as fierce as Xun Yin’s, overwhelming and pressing down on Chuzheng like a landslide.

If it were an ordinary demon sprite, just this pressure would be enough to keep the opponent down.

But not for Chuzheng.

She merely stepped back a few paces, her face devoid of any expression.

Xiao Yue’s heart gradually grew heavy.

”Xiao Yao.”

Xun Yin pulled Chuzheng back.

”What are you doing?” We’re fighting! What’s with the hugging and cuddling!!

Xun Yin whispered, ”Her Monster Qi has your scent.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

What does it mean that her Monster Qi has my scent?

It sounds like there’s something between her and me...

”Did you take my inner core?” Chuzheng looked toward Xiao Yue on the other side, her golden pupils as if covered with a thin layer of ice.

Xiao Yue, permeated with Monster Qi, still wore a gentle smile, but now the perception she gave off was completely different.

”Your sensory abilities are indeed impressive,” said Xiao Yue, her tone changing slightly, filled with the dignity of a superior being, ”It took me quite some effort to take your inner core back then. I didn’t expect you would survive, let alone awaken. When I saw you, I thought you had come to seek revenge on me...”

Chuzheng had lost her memory of that time.

So, naturally, she wouldn’t come to seek revenge on Xiao Yue.

After Xiao Yue realized this, she stopped paying attention to her.

A demon sprite who lost its inner core, even with some strength left, was no more than half-developed, not worthy of fear.

Only, she hadn’t expected... upon seeing her again, that she would stand together with Xun Yin, and so intimately at that.

If she had known, she should have made her move back then, to prevent future trouble.

”Out of consideration for your inner core, I originally intended to spare your life, but you touched someone you shouldn’t have,” Xiao Yue said with a look of regret, ”So this time, you must die.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

Good job, scoundrel.

Stealing my inner core.

And now trying to kill me to silence me!

How can you be so audacious!

Chuzheng asked earnestly, ”What do you need my inner core for?”

”???” Xiao Yue hadn’t expected Chuzheng to ask such a calm question, and after a moment of silence, she said, ”Your inner core would allow me to completely conceal my Monster Qi and borrow the body of a human.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

Just for that, you harvested my inner core!?

”Let go, I’m going to kill her.”

”Xiao Yao, I...” Come on, this is my enemy.

Before Xun Yin could finish, Chuzheng had already charged forward.

-

Xiao Yue’s power was at its peak, the kind spoken of in legends, one who could become the Demon King.

But even in Chuzheng’s hands, she didn’t have an easy time, although Chuzheng didn’t immediately do anything to her.

Their battle reached a stalemate.

Xiao Yue was very cunning and quick to react.

She rarely got close to Chuzheng, launching her attacks as if she were frolicking in the waves.

Xiao Yue knew that dragging on the fight with Chuzheng was no good, she braced herself against the railing and leaped into the void.

Just as Chuzheng was about to follow, she suddenly stopped.

Xiao Yue had an inner core in her hand.

”Chuzheng, I advise you not to come any closer.” The inner core suspended above Xiao Yue’s palm was indeed hers, and though weak before, she could feel it now.

Xiao Yue took a breath, ”If I crush the inner core, you will die too. You wouldn’t want to just die like that, would you?”
